“Magazine on new music and culture”, that’s to be read when visiting Gonzo Circus.com, the website for one of my favourite two-monthly musicmagazines, besides The Wire, supportive regarding all-things Resonance related. In this month’s edition you’ll find articles on Glenn Branca, Felicia Atkinson, Oval/Markus Popp and visual artists such as Bouli Lanners and Manor Grunewald. It’s all about diversity, and all-round quality, in every single domain of the arts-sector, sound or visual.
This month sees a promotion for potential new subscribers : for a measly 5 euros you can subscribe to a trial offer, and get sent two editions to your home. Still reading ? Seriously, you should be making that banktransfer already…
Head over to the Gonzo Blog to win free tickets for Resonance Ghent 2012. All you have to do is send an e-mail, name and address, and a good reason why you think you should get your hands on those highly-desired tickets.

Gonzo Circus writes :” Geotope is de tijdsopname van het ideale moment waarop digitale muzikale vormgeving perfect samengaat met de zoektocht naar verpulverende, pulserende krachten. Dit is Belgisch en absolute wereldklasse! ”
Boomkat writes :” On Geotope, Peter Van Hoesen & Yves De Mey find a subtle blend of their respective aesthetics primed for audiophiles and home listeners, or even adventurous DJ’s.

Sendai’s full-length album ‘Geotope‘ is now digitally available through following online distributors :
