Lefterna

“Furthermore”

Lefterna – Furthermore
Furthermore is a medium lenght concept EP in which Lefterna offers a range of static, slowly changing moods through five ambient/drones and noise sketches. Quoting a famous phrase by Brian Eno about ambient music, Lefterna’s five tracks simply happen. They don’t develop. You won’t find an intro, a fade in, a theme, an outro. Everything the artist wants to tell us unfold in its entirety to our ears as soon as you press play. We wanted to see what happened providing you a 6th bonus track where all the playlist is played and mixed continously. This alternative listening approach will lead you to an interesting journey in which you will experience how five static soundscapes mutate into one another, landing in a final destination you won’t expect how far from the starting point is.

“Les anecdotes polyédriques”

BERTHELOT – Les anecdotes polyédriques
A propos des Anecdotes polyédriques :

Comme son nom l’indique plus ou moins directement, cet album est un ensemble d’anecdotes sonores à géométrie variable, une suite d’anecdotes agglutinées les unes aux autres pour former des histoires vraisemblablement plausibles.
Anecdote de trente secondes ou anecdote de deux minutes, elle doit trouver sa place dans la trame intemporelle de l’histoire en devenir (je dis intemporelle car la rigueur métrique et métronomique n’a pas sa place ici), et surtout donner à entendre une sorte de cohérence dans le collage sonore.
Décrire toutes ces infimes anecdotes reviendrait à faire un inventaire à la Prévert, et, vu le temps magnifique, je n’ai pas le désir de le faire, la promenade me tentant plus que tout état des lieux phonique.

De retour de vadrouille, je reviens à mes anecdotes qui, pour simplifier à l’extrême, sont forgées de sons de percussions et des bruits d’un piano disloqué (oui, de bruits, car l’état de l’instrument déglingué ne permet plus la restitution de sons harmonieux; ça ne me dérange pas, j’aime bien les bruits).
Pour s’extraire de la schématisation extrême susnommée, on trouve aussi des anecdotes électroniques saupoudrées de voix improbables, et des anecdotes humides de par leur nature “field recordings” (ou “enregistrements de terrain”, mais ça sonne moins bien).
Le plus délicat, et c’est là qu’intervient la glu, a été de transformer cette accumulation de sons hétérogènes en un polyèdre gracieux découpé en six anecdotes substantielles.
Mais, n’hésitons pas une seconde à effacer ce texte anecdotique pour nous concentrer plutôt sur ces sons et la musique en résultant, de préférence avec un casque audio de bonne qualité.

Album enregistré par temps clair en Eure-et-Loir (Juillet 2016).

“A Thousand Concreted Perils”

Richard Sanderson – A Thousand Concreted Perils
New album of experimental improvisations for melodeon (diatonic button accordion) from London based squeezebox player, morris dancer and head of Linear Obsessional Recordings. “A Thousand Concreted Pearls” goes even further than previous albums, the melodeon is amplified and put through effects pedals and mixed with feedback, or put through a modular synth. This resolutely melodic instrument, and workhorse of English folk is here thrust into an entirely new world.

Dirch Blewn

“Capacity and Resistance”

Dirch Blewn – Capacity and Resistance
Dirch Blewn is the project of musician David Bloor. He records and performs the instruments of Peter Blasser. Recorded live with a few overdubs this music is the sound of capacitors charging and dissipating, of gesture with no finesse, of fish guts and physical connection with wires. Flexing wood and the smell of tung oil. It’s about the drum of Tommy Lee added to some drama from Pamela, the heady mix of surfboards and silicon. The remnants of squeezing jelly ass signal into 8 bits and ultrasound. The sound of woodpile, chaos theory, kiri with a cardboard box, industrial components and paradox.

Linear Obsessional is delighted to release this mesmeric work as a free download as a precursor to an album of shorter works to be released later in the year…

released July 17, 2016

Capacity & Resistance was recorded on two plumbutters, cocoquantus, sidrax and tetrax.

“Stolltamina”

Ragazzi D’inverno – Stolltamina
“Extrañas líneas de bajo, sampledelia, voces y raros conceptos son el hilo conductor de éste trabajo difícil de categorizar dentro de una línea musical, pues los ritmos y la música electrónica se mantienen bajo una arritmia y sonidos orgánicos: la contradicción en sí misma. Un disco que suena a un viaje lisérgico, como una pesadilla que deja un buen gusto al despertar”

Ragazzi D’inverno fueron un dúo de experimentación sonora formado y disuelto hace unos años atrás, alcanzaron a sacar un EP llamado “Iaio Wheelchair Army” y éste su único LP. rescatamos éste trabajo medio perdido en el tiempo, y poco tomado en cuenta pues nos gusta su sonido, el que aun pasando por muchos filtros digitales sigue sonando análogo y sucio.

“this this”

Phil Maguire – this this
“this this” is an extraordinary collection of sounds made with a Raspberry Pi (the credit card sized bit of circuitry which is used to teach kids about coding). Maguire manages to create a world of microscopic sounds, clicks, whirrs and fields of electrical noise that are compellingly alien, and yet capture something of the excitement of those early forays into “glitch” music of the mid ’90s. It’s a whole new delicate beauty..

“LA NOCHE”

“This work tells about the transition of a beloved person, one night in a hospital.
With no dramatic or compassionate intention, I created “La Noche” to amplify our separation and our unitive annihilation, like a song whispered in the ear of the one who goes away, and the one who stays. An ode to everything we experience by this loss, and everything that we know stays behind forever once the body of the beloved one is gone.
This song should be heard at night, in absolute darkness and through headphones, so that one can, after initial resistance, “obey” and follow the sound. It intends to act as the nail that pierced the veil of mourning, showing the fullness of the non-place, of all that was lost.
You are not forced to follow my narrative proposal, but…
The first two tracks oppose “Siamese Twins” separated sound extremes and sonic subjectivities. Mine: the aseptic silence in the hospital room, which is also an imminent “final”. Hers: the sound of the relentless progression of septic invasion on her body.
This excision reconnects us with a humble gesture, track #3: A Kiss on Our Original Placenta. Finally, when the transition is finished, the window of the next day – letting in the cool air from the Genil river – is open. With some melodic, nostalgic souls flying to heaven, a past tense of platonic flavour. It is the light of the next day on earth. The only material we have.

I recorded and mixed “La Noche” at La Antena Noética Studio (Almería, Spain), during a period of several nights in autumn 2015, using a theremin and a computer. It was mastered by Dal Verme and myself.
It is dedicated to Maria Josefa Megías Cuadros, and to all those who would have this whispered song when the sun goes down”.

Ghost teeth – Religion and glitter
This album comes with an eclectic mixture of Drone, Noise, field rec of rain and some spoken word. It captures the spirit of confession in a nutshell – maybe doing it in another way, maybe in the same way. Who knows? This album draws you into itself, you will get sucked in and you will be forced to listen but you will enjoy every second.

Martin Rrach – Piano Attic
These are improvised pieces using grand piano samples and playing them through some simple software programs i found on the net (www.ixi-software.net) – for the first piece it was lauki, for the second – crystals. Both of them (pieces) owing a lot to the abilities/failures – especially the second one – of my already ‘dead’ pc.
