about

Surge was my short lived project in the late 90s. I started Goem in 1995 as solo thing, and it was to be short lived and very conceptual, but soon enough Roel Meelkop joined and we had a CD, gigs etc. But I wanted to explore this rhythm music further, extending it with samplers and synths. Hence Surge, who posed as a duo, although I don't think anyone believed that. I released two CDRs on two of my own CDR labels, Bake Records ('First') and Microwave Recordings ('Landslide'). To get more attention I did some unsolicited remixes of SND (who were a great influence in 1998, I gather), which I mailed to Mille Plateaux. They didn't take it, no surprise. I then recorded an album using a Casio VL-tone 1 and the usual manipulation, but felt Surge had ran it's course.
Here's the complete output of Surge. Not a lot of these pieces had real titles, so I decided to indicate them, more or less, in order of recording by a number, 001, 002 etc. and between brackets the name, if they had any. I am putting up the two albums for free download, but if you decide to buy the whole thing - and why wouldn't you? Otherwise it's not 'Works Complete' - you will get that 16 track unreleased last album, plus 6 mastered versions of these pieces by Roel Meelkop (essentially making them new pieces, so more numbers) which didn't make it to a 12" from Audio.NL, the 8 remixes of SND by Surge and all the compilation pieces. I don't know, at least four hours of music in total, maybe more. I didn't count. I do know it's 58 songs in total.

Had i had the joy to experience this live i would have smiled from ear to ear too and if it wasn't for the ears the top bit would had fallen off because this is utterly wicked and right up my alley. Highly recommended if you're into the noisier side of music! Finn of Tomland

If you like Goem (or electro or minimal techno(or fill in the blank with a “critic’s appellation)), there is no plausible reason for this not to form part of your collection. meanoldmiser
