Büzêm Post Lost in New England Live Sets
I’m fairly certain that the shows these two digital live releases come from happened last week, and I know it’s only because I’m old, but I still find a turnaround like that amazing. Even if you think of the time it takes to go through a recording, put it online for distribution, figure out all the details, put together art and post, it’s an accomplishment, and Büzêm‘s assembling of a weekender into two live outings from successive nights is an example of the internet working as it’s supposed to in order to facilitate reach and connect people to new and cool ideas.
That’s not to say Büzêm — also stylized all-caps: BÜZÊM — are making the going easy. Hardly. The Mainer experimentalists tap drone, sludge, and in the comedowns, some lonely ambience across the two-shows-and-two-nights that have been billed as Lost in New England, and the sounds are raw, raw, raw. This, however, is suited to the nastiness of the band’s take, which is also readily on display.
Büzêm note a date coming up at Geno’s in Portland with JD Pinkus (Butthole Surfers, etc.) and others. More info on that is on socials, linked below. The following comes from Bandcamp and has been assembled together as it is by me:
BÜZÊM just released Lost In New England: 06.04 Concord, NH and Lost In New England: 06.05 Burlington, VT.
“Hey there gang. By now you know we don’t gloat over what we do that often if ever. But this is a recording of BÜZÊM featuring Ben from Hobo Wizard on drums. It was our second time playing
together as the night before was our first. And I gotta say I think it went alright. Rough on the edges, but that’s how we like it. Audio from Airrick NH. Follow him on Youtube for some awesome shows they’ve documented!
“And for our next up on the list is our live set from Lost In New England in Burlington, VT at Despacito. You know that feeling when ya getting hot and all you can do is give what energy you have left. Phew. Raw as it’ll get I think.
“Thank you to all who have followed us.
See everyone on July 17th at Geno’s Rock Club in Portland, ME with JD Pinkus and Sexless Marriage and also joining BÜZÊM will be WEH-PEN the noise artist.”
