Guest Programmer
Lucas Darklord
corporatemanifestations.com
Lucas Darklord is the Les Hiddins of the Electro-Activist Underworld. Based in the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, Lucas Darklord oversees the world’s largest unlisted company and holds radical views on the future of capitalism and life both within and without cultural and social constraints.
When asked to curate this broadcast, Lucas Darklord decided to, broadly, serve a selection of sounds that Eleven11 listeners may not have heard before. After being confounded by the petty limits of time and duration, Lucas Darklord settled on broadcasting excerpts in favour of complete works. Further, Lucas Darklord found that it was not possible to simply play each selected piece.
After months of solid research, a machine was devised to play pieces of the selected works, where the machine makes the decisions about when to stop and start a work. Further, because we desired it, and as it actually gives a perspective from Lucas Darklord’s interior, additional paths were developed for the sound to travel along. Along these paths the sound picks up the prickly and sticky seeds of weeds, tangles with ghostly shadows of the source sound and generally is forced through a range of pulsing and excessive filters and devices of constraint, restraint and rewonderment. The results are not any form of destructive remix, merely the most restraint Lucas Darklord is capable of.
Note: Almost all works presented here are excerpts, and all have had additional sounds and textures (sourced from the original recordings) incorporated into the work. No disrespect is intended to the fine work originally rendered by the creating artist/s.

Quite possibly one of the greatest albums ever made, this untitled release is the meeting of two of Australia’s most interesting, most underground, and most belligerently misanthropic sound-artists. Any collaboration between Buttress O’Kneel, with her sample-happy postpop cheeky-as-a-schoolgirl breakmashing, and Lucas Darklord, with his dark grinding corporate evil-as-a-business-retreat scrapescapes, was sure to be extreme. But their decision to cover the entirety of Led Zeppelin’s fourth album, track by track, using no source-material but the original songs themselves, makes an extremity that will perhaps awaken the sleeping Rock Gods, dormant since Bonham’s untimely vomit-inhaling demise. A rock-purist’s worst nightmare, and a sample-police’s greatest dream, this album marks the year 2009 as a year when THINGS CHANGED.
Brought to you by the IWML and the Crypt Designers Guild.
Now FUCKEN ROCK!

These are the sounds received from our first interdimensional probe, Asmoir. This probe is exploring unknown and unheard somewheres, elsewheres. Whilst much of the data received from the probe is proving to be, for the time being, nonsensical, auditory recordings are proving to be of interest. It is not known if these recordings are accurate representations of the ’sound’ in these locations.
