Various Artists – Tangents
Netlabel Day 2017 has arrived and with it an epic release from Kahvi! 28 tracks of pure nostalgia devoted to the sound of Boards of Canada, designed to be the definitive Kahvi collection.

A few tracks revisited from the remastered back catalogue, but plenty of new sound to get your thoughts drifting back to far away places a long time ago.

Bonus track from 4T Thieves as track 28 if you download the entire album. All mastering by Mnemonic and ‘The Dark Crooked Tree’ by Lovekrafty features Tasman on the electric mandolin / violin.

C. Reider

“Young Music vol. 1”

C. Reider – Young Music vol. 1
This first volume of collected early works spans the years 1988 to 1997, from when I was sixteen to twenty-six years old.

There’s a lot of guitar-based ambient and ambient-noise as well as proto-prog-goth instrumentals.

STREPITVSITVS – Valore Neutro

STREPITVSITVS

“Valore Neutro”

STREPITVSITVS – Valore Neutro
STREPITVSITVS is the new realisation of musical duo ASOLANMAC PROJECT and meant to be a sort of inner self-reflections as well as a very personal study about environmental connections between people and places: the focus is set on the Montello hill, near the Piave river, pretty close to our hometown. It’s a really peculiar site, where nature, hystory, legends and mysteries are all mixed up together in a unique way. This piece of music fully represent the feelings we share about it and express also the will to define the whole thing like the primal step of an introspective journey through memories and sensations, inspired by that magical location, under the form of an audio description.

Suspektema

“The threshold scarcely crossed that’s how it is​.​”

Suspektema – “The threshold scarcely crossed that’s how it is​.​”
An over(in my opinion)grown tree limb, guided by the wind, rubs against the window of an apartment building.
A human in the apartment – annoyed and intrigued – attaches two contact microphones to the window, then spends the next few weeks processing and editing the recorded sounds.
And for what? Nothing, of course, nothing.
Nothing.

Composed and mixed by Suspektema.
Spring 2017.

Circa State

“Homegrown”

Circa State – Homegrown
A new artist comes to Kahvi now, Circa State appeared in my inbox recently with a nice chilled selection in the form of a demo which grabbed my attention from the start. A blend of ambient and emotional sounds, with more acoustic inspired elements, taking you on a journey through a summer field with the grass sweeping in the breeze. RnB beats threaten to blow away the gentle vibes, but never too overpowering.

A great introduction to the hot summer months by Circa State.

Mastering by Mnemonic Studios.

Escape Now!

“Lichtung”

Escape Now! – Lichtung
Breathe. Invisible micro worlds. In darkness.

Escape Now!’s music went more and more microscopic in the years after 2003. Starting from the IDM electronica point he eventually arrived in the ambient domain. Lichtung is a fifty minutes laid back microscope universe, visualizing this path.

Please do not wonder, the release will be published as catalogue number 100, that was not set until now. A festive compilation was thought to go with this number but this was not realized so far, so let’s party and compile later, maybe with the 150 or 200 : )

Luis Marte / Poltamento

“MOVIL/INMOVIL”

Luis Marte / Poltamento – MOVIL/INMOVIL
“MOVIL/INMOVIL (Mobile/Immobile) is a sonic exploration of two worlds as seemingly distinct as are mobile musical applications and a Steinway grand piano.

This work of Luis Marte and Roger Delahaye aka Poltamento concentrates on a single musical space-time and, in the form of a single perspective, two dimensions that are both physical and categorical, the mobility and portability of electronic and granular software on one side, and the immobility of the great acoustic giant on the other. Categories of space and size, which are also of texture and dissimilar sonic thickness, nevertheless fused and assumed as part of a whole by ambient moments that are also impressionistic …

These fragments, wherein the warmth of the wood and the glitch’s abstraction solidify into a single entity, show us that the possible “N” worlds can converge in a singular sound synthesis, where the extremes touch and coexist, where, as Einstein said a century ago, motion or status depends on the viewer’s point of view, in this case the listener.”

Torin Bell

“Rain EP”

Torin Bell – Rain EP
Rain EP by alternative hip hop/electronica producer Torin Bell, is a collection of three short instrumentals filled with peace, tranquility and joy. The relaxed, unhurried pace of the music, playful melodies and unique chord progressions, definitely make you rest and catch the moment. Amazing tunes that stay with you long after listening.

“The project is centered around water and each track uses the rain within it’s backdrop to provide a soothing white noise alongside various synth waves to create the coming and going of the rain in the spring.
I wanted to create a atmosphere of peace and the rain usually helps in doing so.”(Torin Bell)

Enjoy!
