Minimalism | Pattern Music | Modern Composition | Algorithmic Composition
The new work of the Minc project contains single lengthty composition, in which pattern notes evenly fill each bar, that creates the effect of a constant “pulse”. Chromatic percussion, bassoon, piano, deep bass, cello and viola are involved. The composition is fully generated automatically.

“Reinvention of the Sacred” is a musical consideration of the after-effects of the ‘god is dead’ idea on Western society. Nothing has replaced the ideals represented in the best of spiritual thought, and our behaviours have changed as a result. For some, there is no longer any reason to behave in an ethical manner, nothing to live up to. The vacuum left by the decline in the perceived importance of the spiritual search calls for a reevaluation of what has meaning, what is important.
The music that comprises “Reinvention of the Sacred” is very minimalistic, almost ‘not here’ at times. This approach was taken in an attempt to aurally depict a non-dual continuum, wherein there is no separation between matter and Spirit, profane and divine.

[To read with your own voice]
Behold, I have put my words in your mouth.
(Jeremiah 1:9)
The process of language formation, understood as a vertical, generational transfer, repeated and replicated with fidelity and precision, has evolved into the recognition of a horizontal, public reservoir, shared and in constant de/re/construction: inexhaustible, continuous, simultaneously giving and receiving, taking what already exists and giving it back, reformulated, recombined, reconfigured. Almost like a loop.
The media for storing information lost their static, inflexible and canonical character with digitalia, becoming malleable, like clay, and susceptible to multiple variations and articulations. The institutions of analog archiving, which may be understood almost like a cemetery, were disrupted by this oxymoron, this new plane of coexistence or cohabitation between conservation and re-elaboration. “Writing on electronic platform is not only writing but doubles as archiving,” says visual artist, DJ, non-creative writer, and amateur archivist Kenneth Goldsmith; «Both processes have become inseparable.»
In the same way, if we think of remixes as speaking with someone else’s words, we find ourselves in the middle of a fluid and incessant conversation, where each sound finds new containers and is reproduced according to the circumstantial emphases of those who emit them: first, as in early childhood, they are reiterated and repeated, to the beat of other rhythms and tempi; with more age, we concentrate on some and discard others; when youth arrives, we pervert them in frank confrontation or embrace and defend them in full identification; at the time we present final papers in higher education, they become the starting point for completely new discourses. What this mini album offers are, precisely, fully autonomous reworks of some pieces of mine, by new and active generations:
Orquesta Pandroginia rejoices recomposing “instant records” 4 and 5 and “instant album” #1, reflecting on the process in the previous text. Emilio Adasme chooses revisiting #soloshow, multiplying it by three and compacting it into eight minutes and more. Groovestastik, on the other hand, plays with sources as disparate as the fifth episode of Voltajes Aleatorios podcast, “Tsonaramps” radio play, and “Almost Automatic Remicc #0”, which came to light thanks to the invitation of Cristóbal Cornejo, who is always in our hearts. All this is braided by one of the passes that Seiten Wall made through Planderfonia five years ago, taken from a still unpublished call, shared through historic radio program Perdidos en el espacio (Lost in space). And concerning the cover art, the self-portrait shared by Leonor unconsciously dialogues with the poster for the film “Les hautes solitudes”, by French director Philippe Garrel.
The selection of works was random, as a result of an online dialogue, intensified during the first year of the pandemic; the carte to approach them, absolutely blanche. As results arrived, the country was trembling until reviving the plebiscite of 1988, with a new victory for the People. It is powerfully striking that, this time, the face and body of hope were the same people leading the student revolt during their university years a decade ago.
What else to do but to celebrate that the words said before, almost whispered, resonate in those who choose to share their creative expression from this corner of the globe. And more than happy with the role to play now: paving their way and cheering their arrival.

With his third album Hypnos drives us on a journey of sonic invasion, a journey into the personal ways of the artist in dealing with narcissistic and vindictive behavior in our society, where we are constantly exaggerating our life stories and achievements in an aura of overinflated importance, to the point that we become defensive when questioned or when someone challenges our conscious or subconscious idea of superiority.
“Vindictiveness” is Hypnos’ most structured, most complex release to date, revealing yet another side of the project, inspired by club techno aesthetics, with constructions derived from and building on early rave music rhythms and sequences and everything merged into swathes of ambient fields of long, calm and heavy drones.

![Invisible Illusion – Electronic Control [LP]](https://www.clongclongmoo.org/wp/wp-content/uploads/https://ia801506.us.archive.org/14/items/Invisible_Illusion_Electronic_Control_lp/cover.jpg)
The Necrophile Hummingbird Netlabel presents Electronic Control [LP] by Invisible Illusion.
“Kairological Music for Conditioned People”.
I’m very happy that the second Invisible Illusion is a split with ardleg. Because ardleg is a companion of sound explorations since many years, in the collective KWAY archive.org/details/NomenclatureGenerale or next in La 6ème République archive.org/details/ROSA_LUX_La_6Eme_REpublique also for Zone fusION zonefusion.bandcamp.com/album/now-matter despite it’s still not published on the netlabel.
We are no more living in the same town but we try to keep collaborating thru time & space. Like I did with Humanfobia for the first invisible illusion TOHU WA BOHU archive.org/details/Invisible_Illusion_Tohu_Wa_Bohu_Disc_1
I sent the raw improvisation session to ardleg and he created these upgraded tracks listenable on the EP.
And next I reworked a little the raw tracks adding several layers to two of them, reading poetry on another one and that’s the LP.
I prefer called them EP and LP to avoid any order. That one would be before or after is irrelevant. You can listen first one or the other or both at the same time it’s up to you, like for the world : alternatives are better.
Seems that one important point with Invisible Illusion project is to show the result of different development process apply to one source…
About the surface of this album :
I found a plastic turntable cover with the inscription “electronic control”, it was transparent so I thought I would be able to made an interesting artwork cover by taking a shot thru this.
Then I decided to create an accurate music for it. After the quite dark Tohu Wa Bohu I wanted to slowly glide to the light.
That’s why despite it could have been far more on the electronic side actually it sounds very industrial music with a touch of “jazz”, not real jazz more the sort of dark jazz Mecano did on Autoportrait album.
Also the silence within silence has been record for the excellent compilation silence by Camembert Electrique. It’s a slightly different version camembertelectrique.bandcamp.com/track/silence-within-silence than the both versions listenable on the LP.
About the depths of this album :
Do you remember ?
The first time you disobeyed to an order, not to something maybe acceptable from a skilled authority but from the kind of authoritarian people without skill, needing hierarchy power to show they are above the other, despite it could be just small team chief
with very little power, the smaller they are the more they need to prove it by being nasty. Do you remember how the struggle for this freedom make you aware of who you are ?
Disobedience is one thing but it’s meaningful only if it leads to autonomy. What a pity if slaves break their iron chains to swap with golden chains.
I will try to talk the less possible about control, because it makes me sick, but it’s the plot of this album.
There is only one song with real lyrics and Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche quotations, most of the music is echoing the feelings grown inside me in the last few years.
So since the covid excuse to build up the electronic control society, situation is awful, it was already the case several years ago : there was the increasing level of state violence, state terrorism and media censorship.
It can still get worst making us our own cops, all that black mirror shit already more than half happens.
If it needs to resume : shock strategy worked perfectly and now as some said there will be no way back without fighting for our rights.
Well this sounds naïve, if you remember the subprime crisis or the looting of Greece, you know that the dices are loaded : states, banks, multinationals create rules that they never really follow.
Corruption is the replication process of capitalism virus. Hand in hand with all kind of mafias. So what ? Solidarity is the antidote.
Perhaps keep a space to think by yourself, act by yourself at your local level, your own way,
keep your dreams alive and don’t feed the nightmare with your hopes. And at some point we may wake up.
All things begun with a little riddim joke came from a french broadcast jetfm.fr/site/-The-Russian-Fortune,165-.html, talking of a kind of CON conspiracy : control, comfort, consumerism… when you dig words in C working in that same objective of freedom annihilation it’s amazing because seems you can always find a new one.
And that’s the way all things end.
Good listen & thanks a lot for the support.

Avantgarde artist espinoza espinoza from Barcelona shares his latest modular electronic tracks with phonocake and the world. We are very thankful for it and offer the listeners the possibility space for frequency induced goosebumps and perhaps some easy chair dancing while listening to it.
Word is, that we might can expect the tracks to be pressed on vinyl, with another friendly label on this world! So stay tuned for more. Also the other releases at Bandcamp are recommended. You find the links to the pages, like always, at the phonocake artist page.

Mauve Zone Recordings is pleased to announce the Sypha Nadon LP LOVECRAFT. Unlike the conventional pop stylings of 2018’s PLEASANT SONGS or the classy compositions of 2019’s HIRAETH, this marks a return to the band’s more experimental era, which is another way of saying lots of repetitious loops, pretentious song titles, unlistenable noise, and much pointless, meandering noodling. Disclaimer: aside from the album title and song names, this album actually has very little to do with Lovecraft.

1. From Beyond (5:02)
