    hia

    been very out of touch lately (i used to send out an update now and
    then about new motion reviews) ...

    most of you have probably heard of motion (http://motion.state51.co.uk/).

    however, motion has recently 'evolved' into 'sound noise music',
    abbreviated to sonomu - http://sonomu.net/ - the new home and
    name(s) for motion (call it nomuso, or somuno, the URLs still work).

      motion's content lives on through sonomu as do the well loved
    mailings- 'the filter', david cotner's 'actions' and so on, but
    there's added information, functions and benefits to members. and in
    the near future sonomu will develop into a really useful (as well as
    thought-provoking, entertaining and informative) space for those
    who're passionate about discovering or promoting new music than
    motion was previously able.

      if you're an artist or a label this includes the option of upgrading
    your membership to put your entire discography online for purchase
    through state51's greedbag shop network sorting out your own mailing
    lists and creating a presence for yourself within a welcoming
    environment where everybody who visits (it's members only) is
    curious to find out about and obtain new and interesting sounds.

    i won't tire you with more detail right now (it would end up a very
    long mail!), but please do check it out - and any questions or
    suggestions you have about it please reply to me or mail your enquiry
    to info@sonomu.net (there are also feedback forms etc on site)

    we're putting in place a series of events to herald the new site -
    our third event is our monthly night at london's embassy - next one
    18th april - why not come down and find out more about us!

    cheers

    the latest reviews on sonomu include:
              NEON GOLDEN The Notwist
    Fine rock bands are a rare thing these days, so the Notwist ought to
    be cherished... says chris rose

            COME GET IT I GOT IT David Holmes
    'Come Get It' would be a big bad dark blaxploitation bad trip kind of
    film... says chris rose

              CRASHING AEROPLANES Ammer, Einheit
    Through found dialogue recordings of airline crashes, Ammer and
    Einheit examine those rare instances when ordinary life becomes
    chillingly unreal says michael woodring

              SOURCE TAGS & CODES ...And You Will Know Us By the Trail Of Dead
    Although now on a major label, Trail of Dead hasn't compromised the
    melancholic ferocity of their past material says michael woodring

              OUR NOISE Herrmann & Kleine
    Head and shoulders above your average synth pop numbers, lush little
    synth melodies flow effortlessly over tonka trunk beats... says
    thorsten sideb0ard

              NAIMA Vladislav Delay
    a fine experimental piece from someone who seems to derive endless
    enjoyment by worrying the capacity of his machinery... says stephen
    fruitman
