MR.SMiFF – 5SSENCE

MR.SMiFF – 5SSENCE
[mhrk242]

MR.SMiFF

“5SSENCE”

Absorbed in music for about 20 years, with many solo and collaborative releases, MR.SMiFF is continuing to experiment with various musical forms and styles. He is deeply immersed in observation of feelings, emotions, psychology and behaviors, in constant search of new means of musical expression, through old and new technologies. “5SSENCE”, his debut release on Mahorka, is inspired by the alchemy and recent personal experiences. The music has been influenced by and bears the same name as Neda Ruzheva’s audio-visual-dance performance, for which MR.SMiFF performs the music live. The five pieces follow the alchemical processes and correspond to different elements and senses. Through the use of slow and trippy ambient movements, the composer tries to freeze the time or delay moments indefinitely, with the glitchy twists and surprises interfering as result of unexpected and compressed reactions of the unpredictable interfusion of the “elements” – both in alchemical and psychological aspects.

Biocym – Narrow Slopes

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.

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。」

“Faint Image”

Late-night mystery abounds in this enchanting new single from Brevyn.

Words from the artist:

My current projects are under various delays, so here’s something from my backlog (January 2018). I was inspired by the look of city windows late at night and early Mount Kimbie.

Kaelin Bougneit & Devon Ford

“Hayagriva”

Vulpiano Records is pleased to present the enchanting ‘Hayagriva’ – five psychedelic, drone-drenched landscapes that inspire the imagination and offer an escape into another world.

Cassette (Limited edition gold cassette in jewel case w/full color 2-sided J-card. Comes with a download card for the album!): kaelinbougneit.bandcamp.com/merch/kaelin-bougneit-devon-ford-hayagriva-cassette

12 x 12 Hayagriva Print & Cassette Package:
kaelinbougneit.bandcamp.com/merch/12-x-12-hayagriva-print-cassette-package

Words from Kaelin Bougneit:
Devon and I recorded this (almost) entirely improvised record in short, scattered sessions in early 2019. There was essentially no planning between us and no communication between our equipment, and I think the tenuous, spontaneous nature of that was liberating for both of us. For the first half of this album I focused mostly on guitar and granular resampling; the last half is mostly vocal improv, all within Ableton Live. Thanks for your ears.

Bandcamp: kaelinbougneit.bandcamp.com
Twitter: twitter.com/KaelinBougneit
Subviolet Records (Kaelin’s Music): subviolet.com

Words from Devon Ford:
My part of the project comes from a 9U/312HP Eurorack built around drones, granular synthesis, tape splice/samples, and heavy modulation. I knew I wanted to get into this style when I was first introduced to the sounds of Lustmord. I have always been into crazy psychedelic music as well, so the sound takes on a mix of dark ambient and psychedelia.

Javier Moraga – Violence is in the air

Javier Moraga – Violence is in the air
[pn152]

Javier Moraga

“Violence is in the air”

In times of social revolution against an abusive economic system, in a Valparaíso that does not yield to brutal police repression, there is also a strong cultural response to this unpopular government that does not listen to any slogan. The artistic expressions that confront this whirlwind of state violence are varied, contributing with creative beauty influenced by the social movement, and it is there where electronic music is also present.

Javier Moraga is one of the most important representatives and diffusers of this musical style in the Valparaíso region. Week after week he delights us with records on his radio program “Sala de Máquinas” (Room of Machines) on the radio Valentín Letelier, broadcasting on the modulated frequency of the “V Costa”, new albums by producers of national and international electronica. His musical knowledge is vast, he has publications in the most important Buenos Aires netlabels such as Modismo and Epasonidos. Furthermore, as a sound technician, we can affirm that his new album “Violence is in the air” leaves no doubt about his great musical experience. We will listen to nine songs that cross the sounds of ambient, glitch and experimental, with great sonic amplitude, expressive frequencies, varied and enveloping samples with a clear avant-garde tendency both musically and conceptually, understanding that, in Chile, today more than ever there exist winds of profound social change.

Doctrina Natura

“The Cult to the Trimorphic Hécate”

Doctrina Natura
[Spain]

Format: Digital
Release Date: April 13 2020
Cat: ST014

The Doctrina Natura’s project was born at the end of 2017, with the need of experiment with instructive, organic, hypnotic music, a sound intimately linked to nature. Ambient, experimental, slow techno rhythms and the influence of ethnic sounds, is what best captures this project.

This album represents fantasy and mythology through sound. Reading a book is imagining stories through words. In music, those words are transformed into sounds; this is a story to be told through the sounds.
>From the shadows stands, oh Queen of ghosts, Goddess of Sorcery.
Protective of the roads, observer, guardian of the crossroads.
Goddess of the three forms, bearer of keys, maker of light and darkness.
Half goddess, half witch, the moon and fire coexist there.
Guardian of the woods, connoisseur of magical plants, priestess, healer.
THE CULT TO THE TRIMORPHIC HÉCATE

Duelling Ants – Random Gestures

Duelling Ants

“Random Gestures”

Random Gestures is an exploration of organic and spacial textures emerging from controlled and uncontrolled (random) processes. Soundscapes are «carved» out of landscapes of field recordings and sonic textures, with asynchronus parts and overdubs that creates micro melodies and unexpected bits. Improvisation with piano and acoustic guitar.

Tracks were recorded in 2019 using tape and tape loops on Tascam 414 mkII and Marantz pmd221, OP-1, Organelle, VCV Rack, Ableton and Max For Live, Avalanche Run, guitar, piano (Labs and Lekko) and field recordings.

The album is mastered by myself at a very basic level, so please listen on a good stereo or on decent headphones.

Thanks for listening !

WHΛLTHISИEY – Thisowned
[mhrk239]

WHΛLTHISИEY

“Thisowned”

The music of WHΛLTHISИEY here is served with the usual tones of his ambient compositions, which, except for the exceptions, are generally piano based, accompanied by drone soundscapes, which in this Mahorka debut for the artist were developed further into noisier territories, yet containing even heavier calmness.

Sounds of noisy guitars stand out around and through the slow reverberating piano flows, presenting an environment more dense and obscure than usual that provides a solitary soundtrack to nowhere, really an aural pilgrimage with no destination in time and space.

Behind this name, there is a series of releases, each of them consists of a cassette tape with original artwork and a digital version.

Dominik Vogel

“Low Season Carnival”

“What happens where nobody wants to be,
in the forgotten places, in the shunned times?
Rage and melancholy, decay and hope – moods and voices
captured in the crisis zone at dawn,
at the fair during the low season,
in the abandoned arcade.”
