– Astral Sound “Underwater Chorus”
The sounds of decapods, sporadically accompanied by those of fish. The sound of an old rusty chain attached to a small boat. The entrance and docking of a large ship in the port to receive or discharge cargo and people. These sounds synthesize the underwater chorus captured with a hydrophone, at Sitia’s port in Crete, on November 21st 2021.

Once upon a time a Danish person offered a Kansan two recorded synthesizer improvisations named “Televizor” and “Home Town.” The Dane proposed that the Kansan use these recordings as building blocks to sculpt collaborative bits of audio art. Accepting this offer, the Kansan cut the recordings into bits, edited them with digital sound effects, arranged them into various patterns, added bits from his own original sonic concoctions, and glued everything together to produce four unique compositions. A variety of late 20th and early 21st Century technologies helped make the whole plan come to life. The process of gluing together these sound collages gave birth to the titles of the finished recordings and of the collection as a whole. The results are presented here, along with the authors’ hopes that listeners may crack a smile or two while taking in this exhibit.
GvM has dropped ‘Slide Sonatas I.’, his new album of futuristic slide guitar sounds.
The neo-cubist, semi-deconstructionist blues protagonist returns in full swing, delivering 12 tunes of boogie, chill, inventiveness and craftsmanship. One, ‘Space Digger #1’, has already been out for a while as the first single, accompanied by a spectacular Lego Classic Space 1980’s retro sci-fi music video: https://youtu.be/S4dWDOW2dG0

nad labem, Czech for “on the Elbe”. This is the suffix to the names of some towns that are located at this river on the Czech side. For the trio around the Dresden musician David Friedemann, nad labem also names a place. The one from which his music could emerge, perhaps even had to. It is closely intertwined with his person, the time, and the places (of its creation). nad labem: A fateful place in the best sense of the word, whose vibe constantly resonates through all actions, crafting, and rejection, like a basic tone and ultimately gives the music its peculiar mood.
And it is indeed unique: the vocabulary of Indietronica and Electropop is just the starting point for a sound that seems to get along without references as if it had been created in a valley of the unsuspecting. Bulky grooving beats, well-dosed synthesizer sounds, and clear, direct vocals are the predominant elements of the music. The picture-rich but always encrypted German texts contrast excitingly with this clarity.
While working on the album “IN RUHE AUSRASTEN” the very personal solo project of David Friedemann, also known as the drummer for the Dresden bands Planet9, ne:o and menkenkes, has grown into a trio. Together with the musician friends Friederike Pilz and Marco Sebastian Christ (ne:o, Shortcuts, The Cream Canteens) he worked on his song ideas in 2021/22.

The album starts with “qap19”. A very powerful track which instantly introduces Kyllönen’s style to the listener. Fast complex beats and high tuned distorted bleeps with clipping treble make your ears bleed. Sweet and relaxing pads and the harsh beats together as contradictions build up a very efficient tune. I love this one.
“Iteca liqer” is a very hard distorted track with tricky beats and distorted speech samples. Not much melodies here except the distorted sweeping bass and almost random like bleeps. There’s nothing radically new in this I think but a great track for hunger of fast and hard beats. Reminds me of AFX’s older works (the harder ones).
The third track “waterworks” is smooth ambient and fits in just perfect after two harder tunes. The filtered watery rhythm effects and effected child-like vocal samples run along with the minimal strings just nicely. To me this certainly isn’t the best track on the ep (well, this is one of Kyllö”nen’s older tunes).
“Qap19” and this fourth track “Threethree” are my favorites on this ep. I just love those pads on “threethree” – the pad sample itself is a very nice humming sample and the melody is really really nice (the best I’ve heard for a while). The comp again is very fast in Kyllö”nen’s style. The track is just too short – if you asked me it could go on for over twice it’s present duration. I was really positively surprised when this one came 6th at assembly music compo. I really love this one.
“Celedo” is something that I had heard long before the rest of the tunes. The melody played with strings, female voices and an ethnic like instruments got to me then and I still think it’s very catchy. Again in this track is a fast beat played with many kinds of percussion and other effects.
The ending track “lost” is FSOL like ambient with reversed pianos and different over reverbed sounds and other effects. Smooth strings and flutes come along playing melancholy tunes. There come different loops of samples like ring modulated rhythmic noises and a nice wind bell loop at the end of the song. This is a great chill out track that suits nicely the end of a great ep.
Although this album would do very nice without some of the older tracks like “iteca liqer” and “waterworks” there are some pearls here too such as “qap19”, “threethree” and “lost”.

The bubbling device by Artificial Memory Trace meets deep and layered electronica by Nimbostrata on this album. Artificial Memory Trace was inspired by the image from Vedic scriptures of Vishnu sleeping while he dreams bubbles, and each bubble becoming a different universe. Nimbostrata’s music brings to mind the vastness of space and the endless possibilities that exist within it.

Almost two years after their first release (HK. Orion, 2020), including their early works (2012-2015), “Limitaciones & Retazos” (Limitations & Pieces) is Máximo Campos Flores and Felipe Reyes Flores, second album, produced during the long Covid-19 pandemic quarantines and those days’ limitations, where getting together and making machines work was a therapeutic parenthesis in uncertain and catastrophic times.
Thus, pieces from intermittent improvisation sessions were put together, searching for landscapes, rhythms and melodies, part of the duo’s musical DNA, ranging from electronic cumbia to house, hip-hop to ambient, considering the whole variety of registers and sonic inquiries in their debut release.
“Limitaciones & Retazos” confirms this duo unprejudiced sonic curiosity and stylistic breadth, stretching their own limits, self-assured that musical experience is a permanent learning realm.

4 Glimpses Of El Tigre
5 Photosynthetic Cornering
6 In The Wake Of The Pancake Breakfast
The Process :
1) On July 3 and 4, 2022, Goff and Matchett recorded about three hours of unrehearsed/improvised music at the Taped Rugs Studio in Kansas City, Kansas. The recent passing of their collaborator and fellow founder of Turkey Makes Me Sleepy, Michael Adams, provided the two artists with considerable inspiration during these sessions.
2) During the sessions, two sets of recordings were made. Digital stereo recordings were captured via a computer with Audacity software. Individual instruments were captured via a Tascam 424MKIII 4-Track cassette recorder (special thanks to Killr “Mark” Kaswan).
3) Throughout July, 2022, Goff edited and arranged the recorded materials to produce the compositions presented in this collection.
4) Goff came up with the song titles based on activities that surrounded the recording sessions of July 3 and July 4.
Instrumentation :
Goff : Korg R3 Vocoder/Synthesizer, Yamaha VSS-30 Sampler/Synthesizer, Aklot Electro-Acoustic Soprano Ukulele, Turkey Electronic Guitar, Boss RC 20X Loop Station Loop Duplicator, Vocals, Billiard Theremin, Diane The Mannequin Hand
Matchett : Takamine Jumbo Acoustic Guitar #EG523SC, Micromoog Analog Synthesizer,
Ibanez DM 1000 Digital Delay Effects Box
All Taped Out was inspired by and is dedicated to the memory of Michael Adams: audio and visual artist extraordinaire and co-founder of the recording and performing group, Turkey Makes Me Sleepy. The cover art for this collection showcases a small example of Michael’s talents as an illustrator.

Sound artist Pawel Rassolko returns to Phonocake with an album that offers us a sound that fits so really well in this year 2022. It’s not an easy album to listen to, it’s quite demanding, but it’s worth experiencing it as an hour of a concert in sound art shared with the world, expressing themes of confusion, war, longing, nostalgia and fear. Pavel Rassolko makes music for films and is also a writer.
In late 2000, 5 canadians and 4 americans formed dot9 to bring their music together as a collective. Independently the styles varied in large degrees, but often they would come together or team up with another member to write songs or to explore sound and rhythm techniques. Dot9 stopped in March, 2003.
This compilation contains nine examples of that union. They are the favorites of the abandoned and scattered collaborations of dot9. From heavily melodic moments to mind numbing madness, these songs are evidence of the unique combined energy that was dot9.
