Carlo Giustini – Colla (Double Album)

Carlo Giustini – Colla (Double Album)
[LONTANO-TP06]

Carlo Giustini

“Colla (Double Album)”

Imagine waking up in the middle of the night, looking outside the window and noticing that something has actually changed. The world is still there, it sleeps but it is present, mocking you constantly and slowly showing itself .

Anyway now something seems to cover reality with a thin layer of bright glue, an ambiguous material that hides the features of things and that unfolds the world under a different, bright light.

You walk, this concrete is soft, the walls of the houses are covered with morbid, viscous, beautiful materia.

This world speaks to you, it tells you a different story. You could stay here forever and forget an imposed, harsh past. In this new vision, however, the past coexists, it lives and it embraces you, forever wrapped in a flaming rodeo loop. A giant puppet show put up by family and friends.

“Colla” is a metaphor, a hope for a different dimension, where thought generates tangible content without too much effort.

The streets of Sant’Angelo are now populated by… more

Nicolas Tourney – Gloucester

Nicolas Tourney – Gloucester
[Eg0_243]

Nicolas Tourney

“Gloucester”

Nicolas Tourney is a french experimental musician and sound designer, also owner of the label Snow in Water Records. His new album Gloucester consists in 23 experimental compostions based on a precise methodology, gear and sound material.

As the artist says himself “For Gloucester, the device used brings together a 1/8 violin, a viola, a pure data processor and a ring modulator.
It is a work of sound evocations around Charles Olson’s Maximus Poems. I use a projectivist method, freely inspired by the theoretical work of the American poet. In the field of possibilities thus opened, this research allows spatialization in a neutral listening space.
This work was developed during a stay at the Performing Arts Forum, a kind of European Black Mountain College.”

[mhrk256]

Janne Nummela

“Preserve Energy Because the Struggle is Long”

IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH GRASPING THE DIVISION OF LABOUR BETWEEN MAN AND MACHINE

“There are obviously various musical directions and techniques going on in this album. A variety of sound sources and instruments are introduced. Abandoning specialization and sliding towards universality produces thriving musical diversity but also easily ends up to the dilettantism, which I have not been that much afraid of.

How many instruments I really played on this album? The answer is unambiguous. I am a guitarist, so I play guitar (on tracks 1, 2 and 10). Track 8 is played on the guitar, but the sound source is a virtual instrument violin (Embertone’s Joshua Bell violin by guitar to MIDI, no Max/MSP involved). Playing gestures of violin (sampled) and guitar (played by me) are entirely different in nature. So what is the point of playing violin by the guitar? Just to have fun.

“I’ll never be this happy again”

This is an album about wanting to travel more and see new things. I’m shy as hell and bad at talking to people and I’ve been unhappy for ages because of it. I need to just say yes to things it’s so easy to say no to. This album is for that ✨

I can’t thank anyone who takes the time to listen to it enough – you are my heroes! Having someone to listen to some of the nonsense I write is so validating and I love you all. Writing this got me through so much! 🌈🌈🌈

M=W – Años Luz

M=W – Años Luz
[M040]

M=W

“Años Luz”

Review:

The earth is located nearly 8 light-minutes from the sun; that is what who are supposed to know say. How can this be swallowed?
Of course our condition of ordinary human beings aims to define and calculate it all to give sense to our brief passage in this dimensional plane. And yes, we are lost for words most of the time.
The new formula M=W is a way of teaching that spoils and grabs.
>From the numerical perspective M=W solves its own encapsulated time, in theorems related to exoplanets located within vertigo distances, and as the time passes, they move in a means recognized as «the void», a place where its magnetic permeability is hold onto, among other characteristics connected with the most intimate astronomical phenomena.
Its most frequent paradigms correspond to the subtle modifications of this void; M=W presents this theorem as curve spaces with thermal populations in the presence of external fields; that is to say, and so that doña Juanita gets to understand: the speed of light depends on the density of the energy in that precise void.
M=W does not hurry up; it has calculated every metric tensor with its perfectly calibrated sextant, as it knows that the journey is eternal and internal, and that these three sonorous pieces begin to fall in a unique continuum, as they were three concepts inextricably connected to one another.
It is very interesting to confirm through this release that the cosmonaut Jáuregui Arévalo manages to confirm the existence of a gravitational dilation of the alleged sensed space-time reality; speaking in human: something like the sweet trill of a particle inside a rotating system of reference, which is not plane, and in which there is no tension that may core it.
This could be interpreted as if the time has been slowed down for the clock of your microwave; but that is only truth in the context of the observer’s reference system. Locally, and as it is well known, this time is always running as the same rhythm.
The time dilation phenomenon is applied to any process that reveals changes through time space; and precisely by reaching that point is when it gets crystal clear that this alleged reality gets frozen in a generous net, perfectly designed for the total escape; something like the starting point for the big take off.
That said, M=W wave at us, and the consequences of the alteration that occurred in this plane is on Modismo.
And, of course, we are the lucky ones who gaze at the stars with the sound volume as the lightspeed.

bleed Air – s/t

bleed Air – s/t
[SPT002]

bleed Air

“s/t”

This is a mix tape (on cassette and digital) blending dark ambient, playful electronica as well as experimental beat and drone.

A journey into warm, analogue noise, echo and soundscapes, sometimes perhaps resembling a soundtrack for a yet unfilmed low budget sci-fi movie.

When Robot choirs start singing or (broken) analogue circuits and filters start doing what they want, it can get wacky, but we think it always remains pleasant to listen.

Mostly analogue electronic gear, often of the cheaper and not exactly hip kind, and tape effects were used.

It is recommended to listen to each side of the album in one piece. The single Digital release tracks are not mixed, but musically cut – and we’ve added the side A and B mixed files too. Sounds cooler on the nicely saturated ferro tape though.

bleed Air lives in Cologne, loves his Omnichord OM-27 and his tape echo too.

Dos Kanye – Contraa
[TTR069]

Dos Kanye

“Contraa”

“Contraa” is The first EP of the rhythm fanatics “Dos Kanye”.
The EP is a welcome call to their edgy colorful dimension of heavy percussion beats, unleashed analog sound and repetitive playful samples. In the ep they are hosting talented musicians from their community such as: “Shaman Shaman” with his gibberish vocals on the track “Contraa”, Aviv Bachar playing the ancient Beduin instrument called Sumsumia in the track “Cubia” and Oren Ben David going wild on Analog Synths in the track “Kibutz Jungle”.

Beside the original mixes, we are proud to present to you 4 remixes that bring a whole new perspective of the tracks and making the experience even more delicious. Allow yourself to dive into the chaotic universe of “Dos Kanye” and we can promise you a wild galactic dance by the fire.

Dos Kanye believe in liberation of rhythms and wild flow of sounds,
Same as the jungle,
Same as the desert-
The brand new duo of Nadav Dagon and Ben Landesman creates massive-organic patterns that contain sounds from the tribes of the past and from the ones that weren’t yet born.
They believe in long bass,
They believe in vibration,
They believe in revolution.

Codes&Notes – Aftermath

Codes&Notes – Aftermath

Codes&Notes

“Aftermath”

This track has a story.

Initially, it was about managing to make a decent track out of a melody that had been playing in my head for… about 10 years. The first attempts were put together years ago using LMMS. They were not good at all: LMMS is great for certain things, but not as great for others. Then this year, when I rebuilt a decent studio setup and went back to Reaper, I gave another go at it and… oh joy! It started to sound decent.

So far I had a house-ish track with a vibe similar to those romantic french movies from the 70s and 80s. Those who grew up watching “La Boum” and such will know what I mean.
But then I stumbled upon a movie on archive.org called “My Man Godfrey”, a delightful romantic comedy from 1936 starring Carole Lombart and William Powell. The movie being Public Domain I thought it would be okay to sample dialogs from it and rearrange them to tell a slightly different story. I added them to the track and… a miracle! It sounded fantastic! I was in heaven!

Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately), I decided to be 100% sure and checked whether it was actually legal to sample a movie in the Public Domain and… I got serious doubts. From what I understand, the movie could still be copyrighted in other countries, or its soundtrack (or its written dialogs) might still be protected. The joys of the current copyright mess… The only way to be sure would be to ask a lawyer to check whether the sampling is legit as far as his knowledge goes.
Right.
This is exactly why I believe copyright has it sooo wrong.

So I decided not to take the risk. I do find the whole thing ridiculous, but I don’t want to create any sort of trouble to the kind hosters of my tunes so I did a version without the dialogs. This is why this release has only one single track: a “romantic”, instrumental house tune. A bit of a shame if you ask me, but better than nothing!

The good news is: the track is under CreativeCommons BY-SA 4.0, which is as permissive as it gets while respecting intellectual property. So share it, mix it, spread it as you wish. Just leave my name next to it ;-)

Sounds of Silence; Richard Bentley; François Dumeaux

“3pr(iii)8ses”

1- Sounds of Silence “Friendly Storm”
How to make a recording so that the whole body can hear it, a soundscape that passes its secrets from one body to another? Friendly Storm opens with a machine breath, passing voices, a river trek. Hydrophone instants and domestic reveries. The ghost dogs bark all night, while the storms blow in news from the North African coast sending passenger pigeons scurrying across the roof. Missives from the global village. Sealed with a stretched kiss of male harmony, offering a slower sound of silence. Recorded in Toronto (Canada) and Bocale (Italy) in 2019-2020.
mikehoolboom.com

2- Richard Bentley “Hedgehog Shelter”
The discovery of a hedgehog tormented by lungworm, wheezing, snorting and struggling for air, prompted a visit to the local rescue centre. The outing afforded me an opportunity to get close to the animals and their crunching, rustling and huffing. The recordings were made in August 2017 with assemblage by François-Emmanuel Fodéré in 2020. anoisysilence.com

3- François Dumeaux “Harmonikoak”
Paysage sonore enregistré en septembre 2017 en Basse-Navarre (Pays Basque nord) aux cabanes d’estive de Muskuldi, près de la forêt d’Irati.
Le vent joue avec un portail ; au loin le berger, mène son chien et son troupeau de brebis.

Oss

“Ola de Cristal Mixtape”

That imagery of flags fluttering in the wind as a sign of resistance and fight, takes real strength when you remain. The slogan is beautiful for an experimental and underground music label in Chile, but when it is done by publishing more than 160 titles from all over the world and during 15 years without interruption, I take a breath and shout: bravo!

A collage made with fragments taken from PN100 onwards to which are added recurring waves of masters Asuar, Becerra-Schmidt and Schumacher. A unique live take trying to represent the diverse and mixed ethos, but essentially the free spirit of this Pueblo Nuevo.

This no longer stops. Soon the silver wave and, afterwards, the golden wave.
