Biocym – Narrow Slopes
[ST015]
Biocym
“Narrow Slopes”
Artists: Biocym [Andria, Italy]
Format: Digital
Release Date: May 4 2020
Cat: ST015
Biocym is an artistic project from southern Italy that seeks to awaken emotions by expressing its feelings towards reality and the use of atmospheres and scenarios reflected in its sound.
The main nucleus of his work reflects the attitude that man must embody in order to move in a dark and inscrutable reality that he must face when he inevitably explores it.
Biocym represents the way in which the artist approaches the way of awakening in himself by contemplating the infinite variety of landscapes of reality and proposes his progressive deepening.
His music is the meeting point of his two influences: natural sounds and those other sounds generated by his creativity.

“Wild Breath”
photography by Dan Penschuck (feindesign.de)
design by EMERGE
Sampling, ‘micromontage’, and subsequently identifying pitch from objects, which will then be used through virtual instruments. This is how you introduce yourself to the Wild Breath world. Being the result of the process of deconstruction of the compositional act from the visual conceptualization. Which, attempts to communicate the existing language in a solo instrument (the clarinet) designed from an improvised approach. And that explores and cultivates the relationship between the performer and the drawing. In a very particular sound conception.

High Step Society – Perception
High Step Society
“Perception”
In the midst of overblown computer noises and a rainbow LED sea, the man felt beckoned by a soft, distant light. Upon entering the fantastical shanty village known as The Folly, he and his tribe happened upon an debaucherous, balcony-shaking dance party, thumping to a sound that fit just as readily into a gilded vintage ballroom as a digital desert playground. In that moment, Music, Love, Art, and the Present Moment were the only things that mattered; this was the day Gravitas and High Step Society united.
High Step Society’s new EP Perception, out via Gravitas Recordings, boldly combines the driving beats and bass drops of modern electronica with the hallowed tones of jazz. Through exploring this fusion, the result is an EP that is unstoppably danceable and overflowing with creativity. High Step Society evokes subtle nostalgia for another era, while authentically translating timelessness into a form of contemporary grit. A work spawned from a diverse group of creatives – trained jazz musicians, dark folkies, seasoned funk/rock players, and bass music aficionados – Perception represents a melting pot of collaboration and blending of styles.
Revisit the past with “Side Step,” where a luscious sonic soundscape is concocted from perennial jazz and dreamy, euphonious ingredients. After communing with the past, “Back to the Roots” extends an energetic groove that leaves all worries behind. Title track “Perception” is a dynamic, alluring killer that dances along the concepts of perception, attraction, and infatuation. Woefully rolling through the night on “No. 9,” imaginative instrumentation drives you back into your darkest hour. Transfiguring into a ghostly escapade, “Howlin” is an unearthly companion that escorts you to the brink of the multicolored musical cauldron.

B.Toriyama – Riverside of Uji
[OMOIDE 201]
B.Toriyama
“Riverside of Uji”
「近年、京都アニメーション作品に影響され宇治市に聖地巡礼を重ねるうちに、現地そのものに魅了され、「この景色を音に収めたい」と胸に抱く様になりました。
写真や動画、あるいは京アニ作品のブートレグに収めるのも良いですが、ここの空気の美味さは収めきれないでしょう。音にすることでいつでもその間宇治に帰れると思いました。
2019年11月にフィールドレコーディング後、暫く音源や制作に手つかずのまま、時勢は思わぬ方向に進み、遠い場所が更に手の届かない遠くへと離れていってしまいました。ようやく2020年3月に全ての収録曲を完成致しました。
この作品はアンビエントミュージックとして、リラックスした環境で楽しんで頂けますが、特に、このご時世で行きたくても行けない、帰りたくても帰れない、そんな方々の元に寄り添えられれば幸いです。」

co-dec & Android – Internado
[pn153]
co-dec & Android
“Internado”
Patricio González (co-dec) & Cristián Reyes (Android) are restless producers within the electronic culture in Santiago de Chile, each of them with an interesting portfolio of projects to his credit. González is the current director of prolific Orion Network label and former member of historic bands such as Vigilante. Reyes is an active composer and remixer whose tracks give live to the dancefloor in many clubs. Both come together in the live techno music group “Dentro del Mismo Individuo”.
Within their different styles, both have a common path of musical influences, that include from electro pop, new wave, dark to industrial techno and minimalism. Together they present this time an unreleased album based in the unique experience that “live” gives to recordings sessions, which unlike the work on studio, allows them to give free rein to the improvised exercise of building soundscapes with analogue electronic machines, samplers and drum machines.
The essence of this work, mainly guided by techno and electro beats, is a remix that both musicians have built in a single moment in live format, using as base and initial spark the individual stems from the track “Miniature” by C/VVV (Mika Martini, Pablo Flores and Francisco Pinto), electronic trio based in Santiago as well. The perfect excuse to start a journey of almost 45 minutes, which can be enjoyed both rhythmically and through the rich textures, melodies and modulations of synthesisers. Also, because the different scenes and emotions generated from this unique live creation, this release is a suggestive trip.
The recording of this concert was on July 28th, 2018, in the basement of “El Internado” venue, on the occasion of the celebration of the 13th Anniversary of Pueblo Nuevo netlabel.
Turn off lights, seek stimulation and make room to move freely with this album.
