Linden Pomeroy – Ikiryō

Linden Pomeroy – Ikiryō
[PE07]

Linden Pomeroy

“Ikiryō”

Linden Pomeroy doesn’t use delay and reverb to generate a sense of space, but to smother it. By sending each guitar note through funnels of infinite repeat, opening track “Festival Of Red Leaves” grows tendrils of harmony and compounded feedback, which press together until the initial melodious sentiment is squeezed out entirely.

The second track swaps the singularity of the first track with a sequence of melodic chambers, each housing the guitar within a different atmospheric casing. Those infinite delays are shortened into extended comet trails, dripping out the back of contemplative guitar refrains as they soar over field recordings of cicadas at night, or dwell within absolute silence, or press and clip against the walls of stereo volume confinement, or detonate within excessive amplifier distortion.

Nova deViator – Turns Me On EP

Nova deViator – Turns Me On EP
[KAM016]

Nova deViator

“Turns Me On EP”

The intro does not leave you hanging: here comes an electro beat, lined with a relentless bassline and supported by a mix-up of samples from a well-known house track and a rhythmic litany by a male voice.

The title track has no refrain, no breakdown, just two long verses that keep on going and going. At first, the lyrics seem to be about those almost “stereotypically sexy” female adornments. The assumption that they are exclaimed with possible sexual aims is soon affirmed, but the lyrics of the second part of the track subverts the arousing into other daily phenomena not so typical of sexual hints.

Cairo Braga – Brother, Where Are You?

Cairo Braga – Brother, Where Are You?
[EE009]

Cairo Braga

“Brother, Where Are You?”

“I’ve been listening to this song for a long time, thanks to a compilation my mom owns in CD, and it has always fascinated me for expressing so well feelings of isolation, longing and bewilderment, although with some kind of hope. Whenever I find myself surrounded by those feelings, it always comes to my mind. This time it came to my voice, by choice and by necessity.” Cairo Braga, musician

“The city is an entanglement of grayscale. The colourful boy is no more than a dimmed shadow blending to the bleakness of the concrete and of the hearts he finds. Solitude is palpable, even though there are signs of life amidst the neon light billboards. Where could be all those who promised love, hope, company? Nobody told him how hard it was to grow living in a brotherhood that exists in name only.” Marco Magoga, illustrator

N3rgul – Dr. Seussicide
[EE011]

N3rgul

“Dr. Seussicide”

My final release from N3rgul in 2016, till a brief hiatus, and a mixture of downtempo beats, dubstep, glitch music, some experimental songs, some shitty songs with no rhythm or melody whatsoever, and above all else, some drum and bass and various clips from pop media sources and vocal interviews. Consider it pure chaos, and a sampling of the internet itself in a melodic attempt at musical intrigue.

[EE007]

Cairo Braga

“Sadness is a Blessing”

I turned 25 on 30/09/2015 while curing myself from a strong bacterial pharyngitis. the day before I was supposed to show up for my first vocal audition, to become a member of the Coral Livre da Cidade de São Paulo (São Paulo City Free Choir). the pharyngitis kept me from going. it was a bitter and sad birthday. “Sadness is a Blessing” was the song I chose to sing at my audition that never was. all vocals here were recorded in one take, just like an audition. all feelings here are being healed, just like the pharyngitis.

Die Leere im Kern Deiner Hoffnung – Freiheit Aushalten

Die Leere im Kern Deiner Hoffnung – Freiheit Aushalten
[wuerfel 18]

Die Leere im Kern Deiner Hoffnung

“Freiheit Aushalten”

Freiheit will in diesen Tagen nicht nur immer wieder erkämpft und verteidigt sein. Freiheit muss auch ausgehalten werden wenn es brenzlig wird. Genau so, wie es mit der Toleranz immer dann spannend wird, wenn sie einen herausfordert und zwangsläufig zu Akzeptanz und eben nicht Ignoranz führen muss, genau so wird es mit der Freiheit dann spannend, wenn sie ihren Preis einfordert und sich gleichsam selbst auf dem Altar des diffusen Verlangens nach mehr gefühlter Sicherheit zum Opfer anbietet.

Machen wir uns nichts vor: Freiheit für mehr vermeintliche Sicherheit zu opfern ist eine bescheuerte Idee. Umso blöder, wenn es am Ende noch nicht einmal mehr wirkliche Sicherheit gibt.

Was zu tun ist, sollte jedem Einzelnen klar sein. Doch verharren wir in Agonie, pflegen unser Phlegma und überlegen ernsthaft, ob Resignation nicht doch eine Option ist. Die alte Hoffnung Revolution? Bitch, please. Bequem geht die Welt zu Grunde. Viel Spaß dabei.

Cairo Braga – Thanatos
[EE005]

Cairo Braga

“Thanatos”

Cairo Braga’s new single ‘Thanatos’ is the first chapter of his first album cycle (prefaced by his previous single ‘Nature Boy’).
the song is a personal reflection upon the death drive and how to live with it, or not live at all. it’s backed with a cover of Girls’s ‘Lust For Life’ as an attempt to bring a less fateful perspective to an ill-fated narrative. but does it really succeed in that intention?

this release is part of Netlabel Day 2015, the worldwide independent free music event on July 14th. know more at http://netlabelday.blogspot.com

produced by Cairo Braga. guitar by leitecruz. ‘Thanatos’ written by Cairo Braga. ‘Lust For Life’ written by Christopher Owens.

Taker 51 – Lorem Ipsum
[hpr093]

Taker 51

“Lorem Ipsum”

Happy Puppy is pleased to add the music of Taker 51 from Spain to our little home on the net. It’s the personal project of Raul Díaz, where he blends an organic mix of electric and acoustic sounds, ranging from ambient to industrial.

I supposed it would be labeled as ‘post-rock’ (a term I’ve never really understood), but there’s also some nice progressive rock elements, as heard on the opening track “Supercell”. It’s got lots of cool synths, guitars and drums. It’s nicely arranged, produced and played and we hope you enjoy it as much as we.

Gurdonark

“Constellation Blackbird”

Gurdonark’s album “Constellation Blackbird” was released on the Motherwell, Scotland, UK netlabel weareallghosts. weareallghosts founder Thomas Mathie describes the album as follows:
“It has dissonant frequencies, naive sounds and glitchy melodies that may not be instantly accessible. However I, for one, enjoy his particular style of minimalist expressionism … I look on it aural ginger that cleanses the palate from a meal of ambient sushi.”.
The album features 10 instrumental tracks licensed BY SA. The album is available on a pay-what-one-wills basis at Bandcamp with .mp3s available for free download at Archive.org and the Free Music Archive.

adcBicycle – Malignant Cove
[SCL162]

adcBicycle

“Malignant Cove”

Malignant Cove is adcBicycle’s 3rd album. All tracks are about a rocky ocean cove in Nova Scotia, Canada. The album was constructed to be catchy, dark, background music. The music engages the listener with gritty analog sounds, loosely played instruments and driving beats, yet at the same time sits peacefully in the background with distant vocals, slow building drama and a consistent dark pop mood.

“Trilha Original do Documentário: Prelado”

This is the original music form the short documentary film “Prelado”.

The inhabitants of Prelado, a fishers’ village on the southern seashore region of São Paulo, tell their stories while preparing to the Folia de Reis’s ball. Each story, be it real or fantastic, can be true: huge apes that live in the forest, ghosts in the graveyard or a ball of fire that appears on the sky each seven years.

“nxVacuity004 – Inversion”

De una forma insospechada, el propio algoritmo conlleva la inversión de los valores iniciales.
Quizá sea porque éstos, ya en el propio momento de su elección, no significaban nada.
Un juego de prestidigitación en el vacío, extrayendo números del caos y buscando, a posteriori,
el sentido que los relaciona.

In an unexpected way, the algorithm itself makes the investment of the initial values.
Maybe because at the time of his election, this values meant nothing.
A game in a vacuum, picking numbers from the chaos and the searching, a posteriori, of the meaning.
