Miya Masaoka : For Birds, Planes & Cello


image

 

Miya Masaoka : For Birds, Planes & Cello

A continuous field recording with cello.

Composed by: Miya Masaoka

Performed by: Joan Jeanrenaud

“This is an engaging concept–the cello acts as a link between the birds and industrial sounds, which in turn creates a relationship between the cello and field recording. Thus, a double counterpoint: birds/planes and cello/field recording.”

-Norbert Schnell, researcher in sound and music, IRCAM.

“This requires patient listening to appreciate, but those who take the time will marvel at how ingeniously Masaoka can challenge and change perceptions of what is, and isn’t, music. By the album’s conclusion, Jeanrenaud’s piercing extended cello techniques are almost indistinguishable from the bird calls and jet roars they accompany. It’s a potent reminder that what matters most in Masaoka’s visionary work is the whole, not the individual components, and that intriguing music may be as close as the next hillside or canyon.”

-George Varga, San Diego Union Tribune

Metastasis – “Sound & chifles”

[hpcd045]

“Sound & chifles” is an album when I use the same caracteres(sounds)

but in diferent context (in the first 3 pieces),like a three diferent histories

with the same elements but transformed.

the piece Prisma II is a Omaggio to a Peruvian 60′s composer Enrique Pinilla, one of the pioners in electronic music in this country. he’s electronic pieces that he worked was charged of visual senses. i made this piece using old school techniques (analog recordings) mixed with sinthesis software.

and the last piece was recorded in a livesession with 2 american musician friends during their visiting for Chile in the 2007, we joined in a Krishna Temple in the city of Antofagasta (Chile) and made a nice concert, very intuitive and sensorial playing with delicate and disturbing sounds and changing emotional senses…

The Math EP : My Cell Phone is Better Than Your Cell Phone

The Math EP : My Cell Phone is Better Than Your Cell Phone

[tmth035]

An artist from Canada, MCPIBTYCP, presnts us with “The Math EP”, a shortie release for certain, but a good one containing elements of different styles. There is some of an ambient/noise variety and some of a more tonal melodic type. Something about the music and the artist reminds one of a flower that blooms nicely, but makes one wonder why it it blooms in such a shy hidden way. We at TTHQ would like to put this flower out into the light for it to be seen, and chances are more from this artist will bloom on this label and others.

Process & Lisa Ullen : Live in Krakow

Improvised music scene in Krakow seems to be very lively and rapidly developing. The recording here is a good example of what we mean.

Well-known Swedish pianist, Lisa Ullen, came to the city in July and performed an astonishing concert with local musicians – the Process ensamble featuring Rafal Mazur on custom-made acoustic bass guitar, Rafal Drewniany on laptop and electronic devices and Michal Dymny on electric guitar.

Starting off with a low but intense sound the performance went into the area of unstoppable fury and passion. Four great musicians understanding each other almost perfectly made this slighlty more than 30 minutes a really enjoyable concert.

RE: Yoshio Machida : Hypernatural #3


Yoshio Machida has been working on this series since 1997. The first volume was self-released in 1999 and had for theme memory in Eastern Asia ; Volume 2, released by Softl Music in 2001, focused on transparency, unconsciousness and invisible existence. “Hypernatural #3″, the last instalment in this triptych, is about oblivion. Machida explains: “Oblivion is characteristic of the correlation between matter and time. Oblivion has a positive aspect: it appears as a natural phenomenon in the passage of time and becomes a factor in creating new worlds. Nature consists of a myriad of different memory-oblivion cycles”.

Born in 1967, Japanese artist Yoshio Machida studied minimalist art. While working for international cooperation, he had the opportunity to travel and make field recordings. Since then, he has been using these field recordings, combining them to the treated sounds of real instruments, including gongs and steel drums (the latter instrument playing a non-negligeable role on “Hypernatural #3″). Machida has performed at music festivals, including ISEA2004 and Maerz Musik. David Toop has introduced his music in his book “Haunted Weather”, and a track from “Hypernatural #2″ was featured in a commercial on French television. He also runs his own Amorfon label.

Christian Toonk – Envelope

(c) (September 18, 2008)

A clean and uncompromising soundtrack that represents just modulation, no fxs added. These 4 tracks are created solely by modifying the envelope of modulating frequencies, creating glimmering patterns.

Christian Toonk [1976] is a sound artist from the Netherlands.

Inspired by sound phenomena and sound theory in general, Toonk uses digital techniques in order to create tonal improvisations. The sounds are assembled from custom made software, based on feedback processes and sine wave manipulation.

QuarterBit – Kyoto Series

QuarterBit – Kyoto Series

[PS004]

We, here at PublicSpaces, proudly announce our fourth release.

The Kyoto Series project started when QuarterBit stumbled upon the blog of the designer Pedro Monteiro [whatype.wordpress.com] and saw what this designer had done with information available on the public domain about the Kyoto Protocol.

Using the high-resolution files, QuarterBit transformed them, using a self developed databending software, into wav files and then, using another self developed software, transformed those wav files into midi information.

Afterwards QuarterBit worked on the resulting files, data mined the sonic information contained on them and the result is here for us all to enjoy. From the harshness of Carbon Frontiers to the dub sound in beyond Kyoto Protocol this release is a must have.

in the studio. The result is the album the “Netherlandish Proverbs” a musicalapproach to the painting by Pieter Bruegel the Elder (1525 1569).

Luigi Archetti and Michael Heisch used the profusion of ideas of this visual world in order to approach the decentralised organisation of the painting with instruments such as the mandolin, the e-guitar, double bass and e-bass, as well as with electronic sounds.

Luigi Archetti: mandolin, e-guitar, electronics.

Michael Heisch: double bass, e-bass, electronics.

Various Artists- This Is Not A Test

Various Artists- This Is Not A Test

[treetrunk056] (August 23, 2008)

This very special release from Treetrunk documents and celebrates an event that happened August 11, 2008 at the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Chicago, Illinois. The event was called “This Is Not A Test: The Chicago Sound Experience”, and was curated by Margaret Noble ( www.margaretnoble.net ). “This Is Not A Test” was one of a series of Audio Picnics at the Pavilion, designed to provide visitors with free and enjoyable audio experiences. The event was quite successfull, drawing a large and attentive crowd. It lasted for 3 hours, from 6 to 9 PM.

Here is what Margaret Noble wrote in the original program notes:

“This evenings recorded arts concert brings together sound art, spoken word and field recordings from around the world for the sole purpose of listening. These works exist without the accompaniment of visual imagery except for your surroundings. Although many of these recordings have musical elements, these works aim to pull the listener in from a different type of perception which may or may not include patterns, melody or rhythm.

The focus of these works is place, space and narrative as they occur in Chicago and beyond. Some works are historical; others are abstract. Some listeners may choose to listen without expectation by avoiding reading the artists notes. In this case, sounds become ones own interpretation based on independent experience. Other listeners may elect to follow the program notes closely. In this case, artistic technique and vision illustrate the works from the perspective of the creator. . .”

Stephen Flinn : architect of adversity

Stephen Flinn : architect of adversity

cs117

One looks at the photo adorning the cover of this CD and sees a real lot of things: every conceivable object is there to be hit, scraped or somehow made appropriate for appearing in what we still persevere in defining a solo percussion record. But Stephen Flinn is among those artists for which the medium really doesnt count. He makes music whose staying power in the brain is straight away evident, constructing entire soundscapes on a lone recurrence or circle – like, say, a rolling ball in a jar – or merely mangling and jumbling a thick layering of materials that may be born from direct gestures applied on wood or plastic yet sound, in truth, akin to collaged tapes containing disjointed mayhem left to putrefy in a soggy room then retrieved and put in a garden to dry under the summer sun, together with underpants and socks. In a word, amasses of distorted, transfigured colours and bitter dissonances whose inherent musicality might be unearthed through the listeners facility to decipher their cloaked harmonic content. The equilibrium between the mechanisms looks nearly ideal, in that both the relatively short extent of the disc and the composers will not to surpass certain parameters of noise encrustation assure that illusionism and resourcefulness live in the same street.

Miguel Prado : Dios aborrece una singularidad desnuda

Miguel Prado : Dios aborrece una singularidad desnuda

Free Software Series FREESS 5 (April 4, 2008)

Second solo release by the galician guitarist Miguel Prado (Volant√, Taumaturgia label).

It requires confidence and a special sensibility to be able to

combine the kind of radical guitar playing influenced by Derek Bayley & Bruce Russell with digital manipulation without falling into some cheesy dsp processing. By pushing lo-fi aesthetics and raw energy to the ultimate consequences, Miguel Prado achieves a truly original voice with such a historically loaded instrument. Always remaining human and tactile, Miguel destroys clich√s from either improv or noise rock. Dios aborrece una singularidad desnuda is the non-idiomatic, unacademic most forceful side of improvisation. The dialectics between specificity and abstraction makes this new work of Miguel Prado an extremely focus example of how to use perversity with digital means.

Brd Farbu : Zink

EP tube109 (January 30, 2008)

1. Grnt Vann

2. Uaktsom Stillhet

3. Flau Fure

4. Bltt Vann

5. Festet Mrke

The metallic name given to this EP does not misguide the listener: what this release from Norwegian sound designer Brd Farbu offers us, is about 17 minutes of cool and concrete ambiance. These tracks should be listened with high volume in order to be captured by the intense metallic sounds on it. Rather than new-age dumbness, Zink EP manages to unrest the listener with the sound bursts that reminds musique concrte works from earlier electronic recordings of the last century. Additionally, these are like soundscapes that seem to be inspired by nature itself, in such a way that puts Brd Farbu in the same vein of fellow Norwegian Biosphere, although the sounds in this release are unrelated with the chill ambience of Biosphere. In fact, Brd Farbu gives his personal view of the relation between sounds and nature, without any techno beat underneath. Of course, the sound design and production here is superb, and any further description will not fully characterize this work. Each one should listen and unravel what these abstract sounds can mean. – Csar Laia

ryom : III

cs128

Someone jumpstarted Portugal’s muted underground experimental scene; either that or substances abound in the country’s waters that’ve lit the aquifers afire. Ernesto Rodrigues’ indigenous Creative Sources label has quietly, undemonstratively, gradually assumed an impressive stature as one of the most forward-thinking concerns bisecting the new jazz/electroacoustic interface. Though formally launched in 2001, across an astonishing 123-release strong catalog there’s enough variety to keep both pundits and punters’ ears alike upwardly pricked. Names known vie for attention with noteworthy up-and-comers, concepts volley for position, acoustic instruments mimic electronics and vice versa; one thing notable about Creative Sources is that, whether you absorb the entirety of the catalog en masse, or choose your preferred styles, you can’t accuse Rodrigues’ and crew of anything like stagnation or errant boredom.

eue : apparatus, aleatorius

ALR11

Repetition, hedonism, alienation, nullification, silence. A world where everything is turned into merchandise and things are no longer appreciated by individual qualities but for its market acceptance. This is the world of the apparatus, where a new kind of reasoning changes, day by day, our internal and external relations.

Apparatus, Aleatorius was created based on an automatized, random, programmer, arranged, coordinated, granular thinking; Made in max/msp to be a game which produces music: aleatory music created in a cartesian world; programmed to be granular and chaotic; automatized but gestural; music that explores the contradictions brought by this new way of thinking, interesting for its capacity to widely expand the human intelect, but dangerous and potentially idiotic, by its invitation to the alienation of a game of simple permutations of established concepts.

Mikel Arce : diapasones 3.0

larr18 : 09-2008

Mikel Arce Sagarduy es conocido por sus esculturas sonoras y por ser el profesor de audio en la facultad de Bellas Artes de Leoia. En Larraskito presentamos la nueva versin en audio estereofnico de una de sus piezas mas celebradas, “Diapasones”, realizada a travs de la yuxtaposicin de los sonidos emitidos por 4 diapasones de diferentes longitudes, en diferentes combinaciones espacio-temporales. El resultado, cercano a la msica minimalista de origen ms matemtico, parece reflexionar en un primer instante sobre el origen cientfico de la armona para, tras una escucha perpetuada, plantear pensamientos an ms interesantes: y es que, adems, esta es una obra donde el flujo temporal se diluye en pos de un total reduccionismo compositivo.
