My father recorded the broadcasted version in 1982 on an old video2000 tape.
They only broadcasted 2 or 3 tracks.
This tape comes directly from a guy of the german tv BR III.
User apus_apus who owe this tape, seeded the audio only, becuse he wasn´t able to transfer the videotape on pc.
He was so very kind to send me the tape !!!!!
So, many many many thanks again for this great unedited gig, Stefan

This was one of my first tapes ever. I recorded it in 1982 or 83 from the german broadcast.
And it´s one of my favourite concerts ever !!!!!! ( someday I will take the cd to a lonely island with me !!!)

So let´s enjoy & share a great french - singing - new wave - band from the 80´s !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HERE YOU GO...

AND A LAST WARNING:

THIS TORRENT HERE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE AMERICAN BAND "Honeymoon Killers" !
---------- ===

Jerry Teel's "Honeymoon Killers" were the greatest disciples of the Cramps in New York.
They debuted with "From Mars" (1984), which exhibited an even more grotesque and amateurish version of Cramps-ian voodoobilly, but progressed to the orgiastic pow-wows of "Love American Style" (1985), which was even beyond the Cramps: rockabilly, blues, garage-rock, punk-rock, gothic hard-rock and acid-rock were packed into explosive units that created a visceral crescendo of suspense...

THIS UPLOAD HERE IS THE BELGIAN BAND 'Les Tueurs De La Lune De Miel', WHICH MEANS SOMETHING LIKE "HONEYMOON KILLERS" IN ENGLISH...

Fronted by the late Yvon Vromman, The Honeymoon Killers were a provocative band with a strong pop sensibility, the darlings of the music press all around Europe at the early 80ies (including in the UK, a rare feat for a French-singing act) and their delirious live shows gained them a strong following...

MORE ?

The Honeymoon Killers, a Brussels-based inventive French-speaking synth-pop group, initially is a group formed in 1977 around Yvon Vromman whose music style is "a massacre on all musical genres". It is a chaotic, aggressive, funny band, with a lineup that changes almost every week.

In 1980, the group joins forces with "Aqsak maboul". This is run by Marc Hollander, who is in charge of the independent record company Crammed Disks in Brussels. Aqsak Maboul, only one of his thousand projects, is a very experimental group with Fred Frith an Chris Cutler.

The result of this merger from the artists bio at Crammed Disks:
"A bit later, they're joined by a female singer (Véronique Vincent), and they record a new album in 1981 in Zürich, Brussels and London. The style of the Killers has changed: Yvon Vromman is now described as a cross between Jacques Brel and James White... The album, entitled "Les Tueurs de la Lune de Miel" (the French title of the album being the band's English name, and vice-versa), consists of 7 songs penned by Vromman, and 3 covers of famous French tunes, including Charles Trenet's "Route Nationale 7", which quickly becomes a radio & TV hit single in France and Belgium. But the Honeymoon Killers' impact is even bigger in Germany and in the UK, where the album - although entirely sung in "foreign" - gets rave reviews in the press, and the band is featured on the cover of the NME. The Killers start touring all over Europe. In 1983 America and Japan are becoming very interested in the band, the next album holds many promises, but it's too late: proverbial "musical differences" have appeared , and the band (who have undoubtedly been forerunners in many aspects) split in the beginning of 85, right after their first Japanese tour".
Yvon Vromman died in 1989.

I'D LIKE TO DEDICATE THIS UPLOAD TO THEIR BIGGEST GERMAN FAN, DEFINITELY THE INCREDIBLE AND STUNNING "ARCORMAN"...

That's what he wrote on one of his torrents:

This is a fantastic band from Belgium, who had their big time (in Germany) from 1982 - 1983. I don´t know what happened with the band after 1983. They released only one record (in French) and a 12" with some songs from the LP (in English). ...someday I will take the CD (of their 1982 Hamburg FM show) to a lonely island with me !!!
So let´s enjoy & share a great french - singing - new wave - band from the 80´s !!
The other thing is: Every unknown HK tape is a must-have-tape !!

Andree, please enjoy this little piece of hot shit here...

About the 'Erstes Wiener "Töne - Gegentöne" Festival':

"Höre mit Schmerzen!" 1982, als die Einstürzenden Neubauten das forderten, schrieb der junge New Yorker Avantgardist Glenn Branca die zweite seiner neun Symphonien. Ein Jahr darauf war er in Wien
beim Festival "Töne und Gegentöne": ein Konzert, das wohl etliche Ohrenärzte aus den Anamnesen ihrer
Patienten kennen. Denn es war laut, sehr laut, so laut, dass sie wehtat, die "wall of noise", von
der viele bis heute schwärmen...

Edek Bartz führt seit langem verschiedenste Projekte durch. Mit Joachim Lieben wurde das Programm der Reihe "Stimmen der Welt" konzipiert. Des Weiteren folgte die Inszenierung und bühnentechnische Detailplanung der Tourneen Frank Zappas, der Rolling Stones oder Queen. Bartz übernahm die Regie und Logistik bei einer Reihe von Open-Air-Festivals in Europa, Japan und den USA, sowie von Jazz-Festivals in Österreich. Seit 1977 ist er regelmäßig für die Wiener Festwochen tätig. Gemeinsam mit Wolfgang Kos begründete er die im Zweijahresrhythmus abgehaltene Musikausstellung "Töne-Gegentöne".


In Edek Bartz hat die nun auch in Wien anbrechende Pop-Moderne einen ihrer agilsten Proponenten: Im Musikhaus in der Seilergasse nützt er sein Wissen aus dem Zürich-Aufenthalt, um Platten zu verkaufen, im legendären Voom Voom in der Laudongasse legt er sie auf, und für die Konzertagentur "Stimmen der Welt" holt er Leute wie Jimi Hendrix, die Stones, Led Zeppelin, Patti Smith nach Wien, tourt aber auch mit Peter Alexander und Wolfgang Ambros durch die Lande und betreut Falco während dessen Japan-Tournee.
In den Achtzigerjahren schließlich wird Bartz gemeinsam mit dem Radiojournalisten Wolfgang Kos Wien an das Hauptstromkabel der internationalen Avantgarde anschließen: Rund zehn Jahre lang liefert das Festival
Töne/Gegentöne mehr oder weniger harte Kost für offene Ohren aus allen Lagern: Alleine im ersten Jahr, 1983, treten unter anderen Glenn Branca, Gavin Bryars, Brian Eno, Arto Lindsay, Meredith Monk, Lydia Lunch, The Residents, Elliott Sharp und John Zorn auf.

About the concert:

Another extremely noisy concert from the 'Erstes Wiener "Töne - Gegentöne" Festival', which "happened" to happen from May 08 to May 20, 1983. An incredible lot, the "the creme de la creme" of all kinds and varieties of Avantgarde & Noise Rock bands performed there...LOUD & UNSETTLING !

After a first survey to this recording here i was extremly upset and immediately contacted the trader. Could not believe that this "shitty recording" was a FIRST GEN. FM-TAPE. Please listen to the clearly audible amount of HISS throughout (even for the old & deaf ones...)!

The story i got back was so far & completely whacked-out, but convincing after i heard excerpts of his audience-recording of the very same night: As a part of the "Honeymoon Killers" performance they deceided to use a special "wall of noise" -> a tape FULL OF HISS was looped through the mixing desk and the PA-system to simulate...hmm, yes....A HISSY NOISE PERFORMANCE...it beggars belief !!!

So here is the analog "Ö3"-FM broadcast from this memorable night, with exactly the same amount of hiss (NO NoiseReduction used !)...

And if you still doubt, check the AWESOME NEW ORDER FM-broadcast from the same cassette:

Vienna (German: Wien; Austro-Bavarian: Wean) is the capital of the Republic of Austria and one of the nine states of Austria. Vienna is Austria's primary city, with a population of about 1.7 million (2.3 million within the metropolitan area, more than 25% of Austria's population), and is by far the largest city in Austria, as well as its cultural, economic, and political centre. It is the 10th largest city by population in the European Union. Vienna is host to many major international organizations such as the United Nations and OPEC. Vienna lies in the east of Austria and is close to the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary.

THAT WAS THE FUN PART...SO FAR...


A:
NOW THE SHOCKING TRUTH:
WAS NOT ABLE TO FIND OUT A CORRECT SETLIST...
Their songs go from 20 seconds to 20 minutes, the lyrics (if there are any...)
are outrageous cloudy, and even their cover-songs are bare every vague similarity.

As i am NO specialist in Honeymoon Killers' music, too lazy, too frustrated, and sadly
completely brainless - left the school after just 4 years Volksschule, the (possible)
remaining parts of my brain had been severely damaged by long years of heavy headbanging.

Thus having said, i'd like to get some real expert's help for the setlist...Andree ??

BIG BIG THANKS to fellow DIMEr sousmarin !! WE HAVE A SETLIST !!!

One of my other friends, better known for his music, once wrote a short & insufficient heeded novel, and he's right:
"It's all ONE song !!"

so i cutted the gig in 13 pieces - do you believe in bad luck?

Have no idea about the musicians playing bass & sax that night.
The band's original BASS player was Vincent Kenis, and i found a few
line-ups with Christian Genet...

BIG BIG THANKS to fellow DIMEr sousmarin
finishing the line-up for this show !! Riddle solved !!

****EDIT****EDIT*****EDIT****EDIT****

Yvon introduces some of the band members throughout the show, but i was not able to hear the name of the saxophone-player in track #01...
Yves Flon played this instrument on their album, and Marc Hollander plays a big variety from clarinet over oboe to saxophone...

Les Tueurs by Gilles Verlant

The main quality and the main problem of the Honeymoon Killers is that they saw everything in duplicate. It's a recurrent drama with Belgians in general and artists in particular: they are often seriously schizophrenic. Let's start with their name. The Honeymoon Killers, like Leonard Kastle's 1970 film about a couple of serial killers ? Or Les Tueurs de la Lune de Miel, with this amusing contrast between menacing (Tueurs) and comforting words (Miel) ? They can't decide, so they'll put both names on the cover and the public will have to sort it out for themselves. And then who's the leader, or at any rate, who gets photographed for the press ? Is it Yvon Vromman, who is unshaven and ugly with his big round nose, but makes you die laughing (actually he's the one who'll die, far too early), a real bundle of nerves, the kind of psychopath which blows up in your face as soon as something goes wrong ? Or is it the evanescent Véronique Vincent, an ex-model and journalist ? In 1982 the New Musical Express doesn't think twice: the girl will make the cover. You can imagine Yvon's face: after all, he's the one who started this band! In the end, this internal competition will undermine them and make them explode in mid-flight. But there was even more schizophreny in the Killers: they were clearly going in several musical directions at the same time. Raw energy stemming from punk and new wave on the one hand, and serious musical skills of some band members on the other. What united them is the desire to have laughs, to experiment, to subvert influences without giving a damn about what's in and what's out (and maybe that's why their songs haven't aged, which is a thing you can't say about that many albums recorded back in 1981 !). Hey guys, let's make provocative versions of songs by Sheila and France Gall (two French pop stars from the '60s) ! They were only slightly more respectful with Charles Trenet's classic "Route Nationale 7", which went on to become a radio hit in France, while the press went apeshit.
In reality, the Honeymoon Killers were a band from the 21st century which had unfortunately fallen into a spatio-temporal flaw. Today, all the things they were fighting for with their little fists tightly clenched (and their little tongues firmly screwed in their cheeks) have become totally obvious: being quirky and imaginative, not taking oneself too seriously, bravely mixing electro-and-pop-and-world-and-jazz etc. The Tueurs must absolutely reform.
Yvon, don't act stupid, come back, all is forgiven !

GV writes books and television programs.
He is the author of the definitive Serge Gainsbourg biography.

Voluptuous, tearing, stamping, petulant... Tension between Marc's persistent musicality and Yvons' demonic gibberish... Véronique a vapour in siren's clothing... The sparks are ritualistic and still hilarious. Damn the solemn ! A truly Nietzschean stand-up comic spirit is at work here ... Hats off to any band that can cover a Serge Gainsbourg song and still sound like Talking Heads-meet-Pinky & Perky... They are embarrassingly fashion-free... a vast charm of their own...
- NME, UK, 1982

Legendary and psychopathic Belgian band The Honeymoon Killers have given birth to a monster album.
A chaos of psychopathic dwarves, spiked with shrieks, scratched guitars, fairground organ and mongoloid percussion. Barked by a Killer with a sore throat or whispered by a suave nymph, their lyrics push the limits of organised insanity...
- Actuel, France, 1982

Somewhere between Maurice Chevalier and James Chance.... post-punk aesthetics, hammered rhythms, a rare mixture of sonic agression and discipline... Véronique Vincent sings like a deranged pop idol, smiles like Bardot but stays as cool as a refrigerator... as for Yvon Vromman, he’s the bogeyman of rock - Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Germany, 1981

Original "Special Manubre" press release, 1977:

"Les Tueurs de la lune de miel" are a funny band. Or, at any rate, they think they're funny,
just like they think they make music.

There are three tall musicians (sic) and three middle-sized musicians among the "Tueurs de la lune de miel". Generally, short people are mean, ugly and smart as monkeys, and the tall ones are slender and foppish, but not very clever. With "les Tueurs", it's the opposite; unless it's the contrary.

The guitarist (Gerald!) has a horrible sound, everyone tells him so, but he thinks they're just teasing him. The difference between what he thinks he plays and what he really plays is embarrassing (in my opinion).

The bass player is so out of tune that, for a long time, people believed that he was one song ahead of the others. The drummer (Jean-François) is so deaf that they have to mime the pieces for him, which adds a dramatic dimension to the already abnormally unbearable stage presence of the "Tueurs"

The sax and the trumpet play in such an incontrollable and weird manner that each one of them thinks he plays what the other does, it's so appalling that one hesitates to dwell on this longer.

As for the guitarist-saxophonist-singer (!), Yvon, he's the wicked inspirer of the band. Without him, the "Tueurs" would have renounced their misdeeds, to the great relief of all honest belgian citizens.
without his evil influence, the other members of the band would never have gone down the slippery path of musical delinquence.

Aqsak Maboul at the Rock in Opposition Festival 1979 April 26th.
This was originally a punkjazz seed over at STG, I believe. The
text file that came with it got corrupted on my system...

Eight tracks - anyone know the setlist?

1. New Piece #1
2. Cinema
3. Cinema (continued):
4. Cinema (continued and faded out, sadly)
5. Palmiers en Pots
6. I Viaggi Formano La Gioventu
7. New Piece #2
8. New Piece #3 (possibly a variation of a segment from
Fred Frith's long piece, played by Henry Cow
near the end of their existence.)


Not sure on the exact lineup, but this might be it --

Marc Hollander: keyboards, reeds, ?;
Fred Frith: guitars, ?;
Chris Cutler: drums, ?;
Frank Wuyts: piano;
Denis Van Hecke: electric cello;
Catherine Jauniaux: singing;
Michel Berckmans: bassoon, oboe

THIS IS A FIXED VERSION OF THE TORRENT WHICH WAS RELEASED IN MONO. My apologies to all who downloaded the earlier version and thanks to all who provided information & help.

My tape says that this is an audience recording, about 75 minutes in duration, and that it's 2nd generation. I'm skeptical of this information; the presence of tape hiss suggests that my tape is farther from the source. The performance and the sound quality are quite nice nonetheless.

There is a cut between tracks 6 and 7 for a tape flip. The fade out/in is in my master tape. After the tape flip the volume on my tape is markedly different from the first side, so I've increased volume by 0.54db for the remainder of the show.

Track List:

Track 01 (unknown)
Track 02 (unknown)
Track 03 (unknown)
Track 04 (unknown)
Track 05 (unknown)
Track 06 (unknown)
Track 07 (unknown)
Track 08 (unknown)
Track 09 (unknown)
Track 10 (unknown)
Track 11 (unknown)
Track 12 (applause)
Track 13 (unknown)

I have completely re-recorded this from the source using a different computer & different software. The result is a different split and, I think, superior sound quality.

FM > tape (origin/generation unknown) > TotalRecorder 24/192,000 > SoundForge volume increased by 0.54db + bit depth conversion to 16/44,100 > dbAmp flac encoder (level 6)

Sound quality: A-/B+

*****
NB 1: Most of my recordings were received as tape or cd-r trades. I can't vouch for the source or generation of any recording not made by me and marked as being copied from the "Master" (this is not one). Sound quality is a qualitative judgement.

NB 2: I am behind a firewall. Sorry...
