Wram
01 What is your name / age / nationality ?
Alexey Weselow, 40, Russian.
02 How did you get into noise ?
When I was 18 years old, I played the drums in punk-rock bands :
Los Parasitos and MozgolomЫ (sic!!). Then I studied Russian
philology at the university, got married, had a family, children,
job... but I was still doing lots of varied music. A few years ago I
understood that I really wanted to play noise, so I got pedals and
started.
03 How did you choose the name of your project / What does it
mean to you ?
When I went to the university I had a great interest in dead
Indo-European languages (Hittite and Tokharian). The Tokharian word
''wram'' has two meanings : first it can mean ''thing'' (Sache,
Res) second, locativus of war (water) / in the water. Also, wram
written on brahmi looks beautiful.
04 Which one of your releases would make the best entry point
into your work ?
I think it would be Mutisme (my first release). But frankly
speaking I don't make any difference between my works.
05 How do you record ? (live, sequencing, multi-tracking etc..)
For Wram it's only live. I use radio, audioplayer and contact
mics.
06 What is your favorite piece of gear ?
I like the Zvex Fuzz Factory.
07 Do you play live ? How is it different from your
releases ?
I played live only as Parpita. It was noisy, merry and nervous.
08 Who would you like to collab / make a split with ?
With any of your projects really. (note from Static Park :
you're too kind!)
09 Do you listen to other types of sound/music ? Which
ones ?
Of course. I like funeral jazz, ambient, post punk, dub. I listen
to Troum, Maeror Tri, Bohren And Club Of Gore, The Cure, And Also The
Trees, Scorn...
10 What is your favorite record at the moment ?
Troum - Tjukurrpa (Part One: Harmonies)
Bohren and Club Of Gore – Dolores
Astral And Shit - Subtile Corpus
