4T Thieves

“The Shipping Forecast”

Nik (4T Thieves) has been putting out beautiful electronic music since the early demoscene days. He also, quite notably, has been the manager of Kahvi Collective since 2001, which has gone from strength to strength and definitely arrived at ‘cult’ status in the scene. In 2015 we had his Mahorka debut releases – “Mahorka netlabel day mashup” and “Glass EP”. Since then we’ve had 10 attributed to 4T Thieves releases, one of which on digipak CD – the already classic “Hauntology” from 2019.

In 2023 we are more than happy to be releasing his second digipak CD on Mahorka – “The Shipping forecast”, a stellar new album and also special collaborative project, which features, besides 9 new beautiful 4T Thieves original tracks, remixes of some of them from Room of Wires, Abdicant, Pandacetamol, Weldroid and Tim Koch.

Released July 8, 2023 as free (cc) digital download and special limited edition digipak CD.

Roberto Vodanović Čopor

“Lost Weekend”

“Lost weekend” is the latest project of Croatian artist Roberto Vodanović Čopor, that uses field recordings of local people’s speech, underwater hydrophone recordings and contact microphone recordings to explore the diversity of sounds and the identity of the island of Vis.

Through experimentation with the collected audio elements, the artist has created a sound map of the island, showing its uniqueness and encourages listeners to get a deeper understanding of this special place through this work.

Undersea hydrophone recordings bring the sounds of the deep and the life in the waters around Vis. Through the sounds of marine organisms, air bubbles, noise currents and other sound phenomena, listeners get an insight into the diversity of the undersea. Contact microphone recordings of vibrations and sounds transmitted through the metal surfaces of the ferry connecting the island and the mainland were can also be heard – engine sounds, passenger footsteps and other characteristic sounds.

Released July 4, 2023

All field recordings, contact microphone and hydrophone recordings, as well as recordings of various objects/sources were done by Roberto Vodanović Čopor.

MOTHER BANK – Tanggung Renteng

MOTHER BANK – Tanggung Renteng
[YESNO 105]

MOTHER BANK

“Tanggung Renteng”

Mother Bank adalah bank eskperimental berbentuk bank keliling (bank emok) di Jatiwangi-Majalengka yang diinisiasi oleh kelompok riset artistik Badan Kajian Pertanahan. Lahir sebagai bagian dari gelombang #aktivismedarurat pada masa pandemi covid 19, Bank yang didirikan sejak awal 2021 ini difungsikan sebagai ekosistem pengaman ekonomi terdekat dan termudah bagi warga Kampung Wates yang sebagian besar adalah buruh harian dan saat itu kehilangan pekerjaan. Membedakan diri dengan bank keliling pada umumnya yang mengenakan bunga cukup tinggi, bank ini dikelola secara bersama-sama dengan bunga pinjaman nol %. Secara organik, Bank ini menjadi wadah bagi Ibu-ibu di Kampung untuk belajar, berbagi, tumbuh, mencipta, bergerak, secara bersama-sama.

Salah satu aktivitas keluaran dari Mother Bank adalah sebuah kelompok musik di mana para nasabah adalah personilnya. Menggunakan musik keramik yang dikenalkan oleh Jatiwangi art Factory— yang saat ini sudah menjadi musik tradisi di Jatiwangi, kelompok musik ini menyampaikan pengalaman para nasabah sebagai perempuan yang hidup di tengah perubahan lansekap wilayah Jatiwangi menuju wilayah industri manufaktur terbesar di Pulau Jawa. Sebagai kelompok, Bank ini juga turut mengadvokasi dirinya di tengah persoalan konflik tanah yang dihadapi warga Kampung Wates dan tujuh desa lainnya dengan TNI AU, sejak Indonesia memproklamirkan kemerdekaannya.

Dengan mengusung judul dan semangat ‘Tanggung Renteng’ yang berarti ditanggung secara bersama, album ini membagikan pengalaman para perempuan sebagai nasabah bank keliling yang hidup bertahan dengan ‘gali lubang tutup lubang’, menyaksikan bagaimana lahan persawahan secara perlahan berubah menjadi pabrik-pabrik, antusiasme pemuda pemudi Jatiwangi yang berbondong-bondong menjadi buruh, ritual gajian para buruh membeli rocket chicken, upaya para perempuan memanfaatkan lahan dengan menanam, hingga proses kolaborasi anggota Mother Bank dengan para perempuan pengrajin keramik dari satu desa di Borobudur, Magelang.

Cognition Delay – Mostly Dreaming

Cognition Delay – Mostly Dreaming
[mhrk354]

Cognition Delay

“Mostly Dreaming”

Cognition Delay is a duo of US artist Jeremy Rice (Abdicant, Curious Inversions) and UK artist Paul Alexander (Pandacetamol, Fluffy Inside) who as Kahvi Collective label mates admired each other’s contrasting approaches in music and felt compelled to collaborate. Their defining “Strange Sedatives” album (from 2022 on Rednetic) continues to amaze and has shown that Cognition Delay is a unique meeting of musical mindsets. While they have never met in-person, Paul & Jeremy have found a collaborative sweet spot that melds their respective solo projects into something new and shiny. A refined sound, within an undefined genre.

It is with pride and delight, for both the artists and the label, that their new “Mostly Dreaming” album appears on the Mahorka imprint, released June 17, 2023 as free (cc) digital download and beautiful limited digipak CD edition with outstanding artwork by Jeremy Rice.

Analog layers, hypnotic passages, half-heard conversations, morphing rhythms, fuse with thrilling bursts of unexpected melody. The experience is deep, immersive, ethereal, even vaguely nostalgic.

Repeated listens will yield hidden sonic treasure. Truly a soundtrack for your dreams.

Rani Jambak & Yenting Hsu – 《O​-​ksi​氣​-​2》
[YESNO 104]

Rani Jambak & Yenting Hsu

“《O​-​ksi​氣​-​2》”

OXYGEN

It’s a sound journey about city and nature, artificial and natural environment.

By an interesting coincidence, Yenting Hsu and Rani Jambak both had same experience by living in Australia several years ago. Being far away from their own land made them more aware of their own culture or environment. That was their big inspiration to start their own project about environment “Waterland” and #formynature. By then, Rani and Yenting keep following their interest and exploring their own culture and environment through sound.

Although both grew up in the city, but they are fascinated by their own natural scape. Yenting lives in Taiwan, with the sea surrounded. Rani lives in Medan, close to the rain forest – Leuser Ecosystem. Two different nature scene make them connect through OXYGEN where rain forest and ocean are the most important to produce oxygen.

All tracks are composed by 2 different soundscapes of city and nature from Taiwan and Medan, North Sumatra. Experimenting many style of composition, Rani and Yenting collaborate in different type of production by sharing their sound collections and mixing each sound back and forth. They try to meditate on how human and nature coexist and question the possibility of harmony.

This album is the final result of an online residency project “∀ Flλ ≡nters. ∥mmense βreath of ⊥he ∫ea：ℝesidency” organized by Open Contemporary Art Center in 2021-2022.

Adriano Cava – Lineology

Adriano Cava – Lineology
[mhrk342]

Adriano Cava

“Lineology”

Adriano Cava is an artist based in Turin, Italy. He is part of the New Weird Italia collective and co-founder of the “screw wave” label Riforma. Adriano plays with tape, electricity and various sonic masses to explore sounding environments.

Adriano Cava’s debut on Mahorka was finalized under the name “Lineology” after a few iterations of the sonic contents, names, sides order and design in discussions with the label.

“These tracks originated from a basic approach to sounds. Focusing only on the frequencies’ “mass”, I warped and sculpted it following irregular imaginary lines.

When some granular samplers, a digital delay and a synth got stuck in a circular resampling chain, they started generating feedbacks, saturation and clipping. Listening to and contemplating this “sonic stalemate” I began to deepen it by stretching and pitching down each texture and each note.

The “magnetic” side replays the same game using an old magnetophone (a Castelli tape recorder borrowed from a friend). Each “digital” track is overdubbed in a singular reel loop and then expanded again, adding few new elements.

Both processes were dark and unconscious. The eight (4+4) tracks, split in two sides of a tape, are still open, intentionally released without a final edit.”

Released March 25, 2023 as free (cc) digital download and limited cassette edition.

This EP was conceived during the recording sessions for the soundtrack to the short film “Струиндол” (“Struindol”) of the director Zornitsa Georgieva.

Alexey Nikolov – electric cello
Asya Andonova – vocals

L’enregistrement s’est fait chez moi, par une soirée pluvieuse de rentrée.
