Project Mycelium

“Pulse”

Linear Obsessional is proud to release “Pulse” the debut EP from Project Mycelium, an experimental duo from Hackney, London.

Luke Brennan and Lorenzo Santangeli work from tiny minimalist fragments of acoustic samples- they explore texture and dynamics to build an extraordinary and beautiful piece of music, that seems to reference several stages in electronic music from the 50s and 60s whilst also being strikingly futuristic.

Со мною вот что – Добро пожаловать в машину
[SCL177]

Со мною вот что

“Добро пожаловать в машину”

«Раньше, если у кого-то в квартире был проигрыватель, он был большим человеком – к нему собирались потанцевать всем подъездом. А сейчас та музыка – забавное старье. Или, вот, машины: за “Волгу”, полвека назад, человек готов был душу продать, а теперь такая развалюха у каждого подъезда ржавеет. Мы захотели оценить красоту первого и второго, расширить границы понятия “ретро” (к примеру, перемешав пару хорошо забытых текстов 40-х с аранжировками 80-х) и показать, что эстетика того времени может быть живой, стильной и качёвой. Мы, также как и наши дедушки с бабушками, бегаем на выставки, ходим на концерты и в кино, растим детей и боимся войны. Правда круто, что из года в год, из поколения в поколение в городе мелькают похожие лица? И у нас гораздо больше общего, чем кажется. Послушайте – и согласитесь»

[SCL-TM005]

V/A

“Lo​-​Fi Fidelity”

New melancholic compilation “Lo-Fi Fidelity”, arranged through the efforts of two producers – Hank Hobson and Hobotek within the framework of their collaborative project H + H2 – is designed in a cold and sometimes gloomy tone. The tone which creates that autumnal touch specific for the season. Plangent ambient and drone, pensive trip-hop and experimental electronica make one wonder about the internal quality of music, its message and the atmosphere created by the melodies. Musicians whose works are represented in the compilation protest against the lack of spirit in the modern world where the value of ideas is substituted by the masterly performance, and brandish their fidelity to the ideals of the past, when the music was considered to reflect the musician’s perception of the world. The ideas that are so often forgotten now.

Dr.800XL – Epifanía

Dr.800XL – Epifanía
[pn101]

Dr.800XL

“Epifanía”

“Epifanía (Epiphany) (From the Latin epiphanīa: f. manifestation, appearance, or revelation). – This corresponds to the final album of the trilogy initiated in 2006 with ‘Anomia‘ (pn007), continued then with ‘Vesania‘ (pn047) in 2009; and, as such, it continues the course and the dynamic of these 3 states (the diffuse confusion in the beginning, the unbridled madness of the mature conflict, and then, the illumination and calm of the resolution), trying to give an account of various biographical and creative states of the author. ‘Epifanía‘ establishes itself, at the same time, as a point of inflection with profound changes to the stylistic and discursive in this delightfully haphazard route that is life and its creatures-creations.”

Felipe Zúñiga Herranz aka Dr.800XL
(Santiago, Chile, diciembre 2015)

“‘Epifanía‘ (Epiphany), completes the trilogy of Dr.800XL for Pueblo Nuevo… an exercise in electronica of high flight, fresh and full of spatiality. Reunification of samples in a Down-tempo beat, with techno tinges and with a palette of spatial/temporal synthesis of ambient tone. In this multiverse of intricate breaks, playful glitches, with contemplative tone and with a marked experimental accent, Felipe Zúñiga Herranz drives the pulleys to give us a work that makes its impression on the listening, through the richness and variety of the compositions. A disc that crowns in an exiting way this musical/discursive continuity… in good time Doc.”

Héctor “Polar” Aguilar
Integrante del dúo Lluvia Acida / Lluvia Ácida member.
(Punta Arenas, Chile, diciembre 2015)

“The Sound as a tool of echolocation for tracing emotional and mental maps. The Beats like serial lightning strikes forming thoughts. The Sequences forming successive images that vanish at the boundary between the Conscious and the Unconscious. Glitches like nervous tics that we strive to conceal. Arpeggios of Acoustic Guitar that evoke moments that will not return. Synths that move around like cirrus in the sky that our eyes can span. Reverbs that bounce off the walls of our internal cavern. This is how I can describe this “Epiphany” that Felipe Zuñiga gives us today. Fast, enlightening, but not ephemeral. If we listen carefully to them, his pieces take the form of portals, on whose threshold oscillate vibrations that evoke a wide palette of colors, playful and far from the claim of superiority of the Musician above the Listener. Thank you very much for this album, Felipe: I believe that you were happy creating it, and in these times, to share that is a significant and necessary gesture.”

“For tonight you’re only here to know”

Artist: LZRVS
Artwork: Luca Mascioli
Mastering: Fulvio Vitale aka Flux
Title: For tonight you’re only here to know
Genre: Future Beats
Released on: 04/12/2015

Description (Curated by Marco Stilo)

[EN]
In full consciousness and introspective phase. Perhaps this is the key to open Lzrs sound door. Certainly, it’s the essential theme between the producer and Sostanze Records for the making of ‘For Tonight You’re Only Here to Know’, the winning debut record by the Italian artist. Such a release pushing for getting what we have around us. A sound apparently melancholic which does not hide emotive charges towards a romantic evolution. Lzrs softly gets up on the stage but at the same time his elegance shows immediately a significant attetion for its message, codified by distorsions and atmospheres playing up the trip created by its music. In love with Lzrs.

[IT]
In piena fase introspettiva e di sviluppo della conoscenza . Forse è questa la chiave per aprire la porta dei suoni di Lzrs. Sicuramente è il filo conduttore tra il produttore e Sostanze Records nella realizzazione di ”For Tonight You’re Only Here to Know” , debutto vincente dell’artista italiano. Una release che penetra nella voglia di riflettere e capire ciò che ci circonda. Un suono all’apparenza malinconico ma che non nasconde cariche emotive tendenti ad un’evoluzione romantica della musica proposta dall’artista. Lzrs è morbido nell’entrata in scena ma al tempo stesso la sua eleganza desta subito grande attenzione per la profondità del messaggio codificato da distorsioni e atmosfere che amplificano la missione del viaggio creato dalla sua musica. In love with Lzrs.

[4295]

Splicey and Tracky

“Horses, Horses … Horses!”

Horses, Horses … Horses! is the late October 2015 debut release from the collaboration, Splicey and Tracky (Dave Keifer & Jess Lemont). In this case, the tracks featured are from Keifer’s end of the ongoing project.
Recently, Vuzhh Music Blog (C. Reider) produced its annual list of Notable Netlabel Releases, which includes the debut. Reider’s description: “Skittering and simultaneously loping, riffing and simultaneously free-jazzing group work featuring the brilliant Jess Lemont. This coheres really well, and is very groovy, even when they’re at their most free-improv-y.”

And, they’re just getting started. Be sure to stay on the lookout for more Splicey and Tracky releases, and, if possible, listen with your eyes closed!

Credits:
Dave Keifer (Cagey House): virtual instruments, software, etc. Shifty editing, occasional brief embellishments.
Jess Lemont (Be a Waterwolf): all real instruments including drums, voice, guitar, bass, mallet percussion, keyboards, xaphoon, etc. Large-scale intricate lace improvisations.

(Tracks created jointly between April and August of 2015)

Nada

“Mirror Image”

Linear Obsessional is delighted to present this beautifully recorded collection of free improvisations by Nada. Nada is the duo of Roger Mills – Trumpet and Hervé Perez – alto sax. The improvisations that make up “Mirror Image” are revelatory, as both musicians explore a huge range of sonic textures through extended technique, and make for a fascinating and engrossing listen as they search out their common ground. Interestingly although both musicians had played together via internet collaborations “Mirror Image” is the result of their first meetings in person. The sound of two musicians communicating so naturally, but also with great control and subtlety, makes this an enormously rewarding album.
credits
released December 14, 2015

Mirror Image is the debut album of the duo Nada,
featuring UK based saxophonist Hervé Perez and
Australian trumpeter Roger Mills.
While Perez and Mills live on opposite sides of
the world, they met through their mutual work
with the telematic improvisatory music ensemble
Ethernet Orchestra.
The pair quickly realised a shared aesthetic and
continued developing their sound online.

Hervé and Roger would like to thank Elke Utermöhlen
and Martin Slawig (blackhole-factory) for bringing us
together, Richard Sanderson for releasing the album,
and Arman S. Haghi for the original artwork.

Mike Adcock

“Accord”

Here at Linear Obsessional you may have noted we have a fondness for squeezeboxes and free improvisation, which is why we jumped at the chance to release an album by the amazing British accordionist Mike Adcock (once of Accordions Go Crazy amongst others). “Accord” is a collection of improvised duets with a series British improvising musicians – and is a wonderful showcase for Mike’s sensitivity as an improviser and his wonderful musicality as a accordionist.

Getting deep into the process and working with thrift-store cassettes he uses a number of radical techniques to create his tape loops, including lengthening the tape, shredding it , making new tapes from tiny fragments and reassembling them.
