Ersha – Conservation of Angular Momentum

Ersha – Conservation of Angular Momentum
[EEM033]

Ersha

“Conservation of Angular Momentum”

“Conservation Of Angular Momentum” is a touching album full of cinematic ambient sounds. The main attention is paid to the extensive, sublime atmospheres. Convulsing melodies and sound effects in the background do not let the listener fall into a monotonic mood, on the contrary, it evokes a spacious palette of listener’s musical senses.

K. Markov – Excerpt Two

K. Markov – Excerpt Two
[402]

K. Markov

“Excerpt Two “

A seven track ambient album from K.Markov showcasing a selection from three of his existing albums – Organic, After the storm and Species, which you can find on his bandcamp page.

Following on from his first release on Kahvi under the name Phrulex (which was a single several years ago), and part one of the excerpts, K.Markov gives more of the detailed, progressive ambient work that appeared in part one.

Gently floating atmospheres, mixed with sweeping arpeggios and melodical interludes to keep you listening closely.

Metalogue – Gradient Descent

Metalogue – Gradient Descent

Metalogue

“Gradient Descent”

“Gradient Descent” is the fourth Metalogue EP. Exploring variations on a single melodic theme, the record travels from dark cavernous ambience to precise digital structures, crossing through sweeping synthetic textures and industrial claustrophobia along the way.

Gradient Descent was written and performed for a Chaos Theory event headlined by Jarboe and Farther Murphy, at St Pancras Old Church, London on 23rd October 2017. The piece features custom made electro-acoustic instruments, field recordings and live electronics. The release on Abstrakt Reflections is a studio arrangement of the original material, integrating additional sound design and layers of live sound from the church performance.

Listening Satellites – Everything is a Glitch

Listening Satellites

“Everything is a Glitch “

Listening Satellites appears as Guest artist this time with a small four track EP called ‘Everything is a Glitch’. Lots of oldskool sounds and beats and melodies, with modern inspirations.

The name of the music stays the same over the years but the feel and construction evolves and this EP is a good example of todays vibe reflected in retro sounds. Mellow, Air-esque basslines, Sven Vath inspired beats, ambient pads. Dreamy.

eww – I Follow
[EEM031]

eww

“I Follow”

I follow subtle seismic ambient vibrations that immerse me in a deep state in-between the world of dreams and the dream about distant worlds covered in a fog of colours.

Rhythmic and slow landscapes.

The sound is sometimes described as slow IDM. The distinct feature of the album is that only a few tracks have real drum samples, however, almost all of them are quite rhythmical. Rhythms are created just the way J. M. Jarre did that on “Zoolook” – using weird sounds, pulsing synths, and very clear melodies. Due to the lack of easily recognized drums, the album is sometimes ascribed to ambient, however, I’d call it “seismic ambient”, because of extremely heavy basslines.

Captive Portal

“What Is?”

The prolific as ever Zach Bridier is back on Mahorka with his main genre-merging and style-hopping electronic music project Captive Portal with another 5 track EP! This time around, it’s guitar based music in a shoegaze-like style. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. Gazing at shoes is not obligatory. And, this time around, the EP comes also as a very limited edition cassette co-release with Zach’s own DBD Tapes.

Jam’s

“Le Temps d’un Rêve”

Jam’s marks the 51beats’ 10 years anniversary with a touching piano-based ambient release of unique deepness and melancholy. In 2010, during the first quite exceptional participation of 51beats to the Qwartz Electronic Music Awards in Paris, we got in contact with Jam’s, which later released his debut-album “Homeless Soul” with us. It is an immense pleasure to host Jam’s again on 51beats to celebrate our first 10 years. Sit down, relax and enjoy.

Dislocations – Planetary Dislocations

Dislocations – Planetary Dislocations
[AR_076]

Dislocations

“Planetary Dislocations”

Planetary Dislocations” is a journey through space, from lush garden worlds to barren exoplanets. It is a sonic landscape intent on portraying inconceivably far away places and unimaginable circumstances, a dream about intelligence, technology and the future.

Simulations of random behaviour lead us through an artificial organic space. The machines become our nature, as we venture into the abyss.

Part III is based on microtonal synthesizer excerpts, whereas Part IV is an unreleased screwed edit of an sample loop taken from a live recording by Margitt Holzt.

My second release under the guise of ‘fascinating earthbound objects’ finds it’s way to your ears in the form of this 20 track album. Running the gamut of unrestricted genre exploration, expect a little bit of everything.
Enjoy!

Rephazer – Sketches in between the Noise

Rephazer – Sketches in between the Noise
[399]

Rephazer

“Sketches in between the Noise “

Rephazer appeared on Kahvi with a similar styled release previously last year, created on a single instrument but with all the hallmarks of what makes nostalgic idm so great. And he’s back, with what could be a sequel with some new tracks making up a seven track EP.

Shortwave will be familiar to some, after appearing on our Boards of Canada inspired VA last year, but check out Between for one of the most catchy subtle analogue sounds I’ve heard for quite some time.

Various – Autómatas Sonoros

Various – Autómatas Sonoros

Various

“Autómatas Sonoros”

The content of this work is a response to what I consider to be one of the main myths about music, in the context of my (and the rest of the composers in this compilation) current hometown.
This Idea primarily circulates around the people, projects, groups and etc. that best adhere to a popular music paradigm.

The romantic idea I’m referring to is the existence of an actual performer (in the more traditional sense performer – instrument) for the music itself to have value.

To which we respond with this tracks.

Autómatas Sonoros was first and foremost an acousmatic music concert presented at the Adolfo Prieto school in Monterrey Mexico on September 2 2017.
The concert was part of a series of retribution events organized by Raúl Guerra Jimenez as a winner for the 2015 PECDA Jovenes Creadores prize.

Ölü Körpē – vol. 2 – Mira, la bruja no esta quemada

[WAC10]

Ölü Körpē

” vol. 2 – Mira, la bruja no esta quemada”

Ölü Körpē vol. 2 – Mira, la bruja no esta quemada

Track list:
1. My Lai, 1968
2. Yes, Vomit Comet.
3. Possibilities are Endless; Train Stations, Airports, Foreign Lands

So much had happened since my last collection of sounds. I decided to “embark” to new, unfriendly shores with drones, noises, and a bit of pseudo free-jazz. Not as melodic as “Travel,” I reckon, but no less fun.

As far as subject matter goes, “Mira, la bruja no esta quemada” (which means “look, the witch is unburnt” in english, by the way) rolls around things that can’t go away no matter how hard we wish them to disappear; maybe the mundane (desire to travel) or the somewhat heavy (massacre and cover-ups).

Please, do use headphones/headsets while listening to the tunes. There are some interesting movements there. Don’t forget to drink some water and watch the witch go unburnt.
