de-VICE is a completely pretentious new outlet (here read mid-2005 origins incomparable with those of a superhero like Captain America or Batfink, but somewhere in the vicinity of "once upon a time"...) for an incorrigible group of tightwads with minimal funds residing in Tokyo, Japan - if only because it sets itself absolutely no perimeters whatsoever, so go figure...

...whatever.



Anyways, you'll find in this primitive edition an interview Andrez (looking crap-glam above - no, not the dinosaur, but the loser beneath!!!) did with REINHARD VOIGT of Cologne's Kompakt label in July 2005.



No, that's NOT a picture of either Reinhard or Andrez on the right - get a grip. It's Andrez & Yoko's new creation.



And then there's the AUTECHRE article Andrez also wrote for the Daily Yomiuri rag earlier this year, and a new one with Melbourne electronic muzak pioneer ZEN PARADOX.



Plus JOEY BELTRAM back in Feb '05



Also archaic rants with CABARET VOLTAIRE, JUAN ATKINS, JEFF MILLS, LUKE VIBERT, SI BEGG, ANDY WEATHERALL, etc, etc.



Enjoy 'em, for what they're worth - which is zilch!



NEXT UP? ...look out for upcoming crap pieces on playing football in Japan (soccer, not ironclad American footy) and a blog on the latest manga stuff emerging in this country... whatever...

...bah, humbug!
