Carrier Band Voice Coil

Carrier Band Voice Coil

Deep Listening

The Carrier Band – Pauline Oliveros (accoridion and Expanded Instrument System), Peer Bode (Bode Vocoder) and Andrew Deutsch (live mixing) – in a live improvisation from 2003.

“Pauline Oliveros, accordion with Expanded Instrument System Peer Bode, live text with Bode Vocoder Andrew Deutsch, live mixing, archival recordings, samples, loops and electronics Voice Coil was performed by the Carrier Band in the fall of 2003 at the Deep Listening Space in Kingston, New York. Pauline Oliveros performed on accordion and computer based Expanded Instrument System, Peer Bode performed live text with his Bode Vocoder, and Andrew Deutsch performed live mixing, archival recordings from the Bode archive, samples, loops and electronics. Voice Coil is an example of an improvisation emphasizing the integration of analog systems and new digital tools between performers both living and deceased. In 2007 Andrew Deutsch added about 35 minutes of short overdubs to the recordings and has brought the recording closer to what the audience heard at the Deep Listening Space. Furthermore, the overdubs provide added depth to the work for repeated listening. “Frozen Speaker” is an electronic composition by Andrew Deutsch and features sections from Oliveros s Music for Expo 70. “Video Voice” uses sounds from Pauline Oliveros’ electronic works V of IV and Mewsak, as well as elements of Stephen Vitiello s Light Meter recordings. The Carrier Band was formed in 1998 when Pauline Oliveros, Peer Bode, and Andrew Deutsch performed 3 improvisations at Alfred University that were later released as the Carrier CD on the Deep Listening label.”-IEA

Venus Vulture – Signal Artifacts

Venus Vulture – Signal Artifacts

rb044

Description

On his last Resting Bell-release phantomshadows Sean Monaghan aka Venus Vulture presented 4 abstract and beautiful ambient pieces with wide soundscapes and melodic patterns. His new release Signal Artifacts goes in a slightly different direction.

Signal Artifacts contains six very reduced and quiet pieces. Signal tones, glitches and noises are flying around. A hushed sound-pattern comes up and fades away. All tracks have some sort of droning fundament, sometimes really quiet or slowly envolving but the pieces have a aged feeling. Dusty, fragmental and coming from a very long travel from a very distant place.

The release includes twelve additional cover-pictures (Feel free to choose them for the individual tracks) and a video of Radio artifacts – 18 June 2008″.
