Diving Headfirst Into The Sun

Conna Haraway - Drench

The newest vinyl release from 29 Speedway, UltraBody, is a compilation record featuring the music of Jake Muir, Pent & Dylan Kerr, Nexcyia & mu tate, James K, Flora Yin-Wong, Ex Wiish & Dorothy Carlos, Kamran Sadeghi, Tati au Miel, James Hoff, Eric Frye, qwqwqwqwa & sop.io, Muein, & Maxwell Sterling. The record is emblematic of the artists who have performed at 29 Speedway shows in New York and Europe over the past two years, and is the third in a series released by the label.

The first single, ‘Sans Titre’ by Nexcyia & Mu Tate, is out now. 

The LP is available for pre-order on Rubadub, Boomkat, and Bandcamp.  

UltraBody investigates how the self, spirituality, and language are intertwined with the intervention of subjectivity by new technologies. With increasingly sophisticated tech, and the supposed ability to remake the world and ourselves, what differentiates our individual discretion from the will imposed upon us by software? Quoting Walter Chaw, “Decades of rampant, unregulated and ill-considered technological leaps have begun to evolve, to mutate, humans at a biological level”. This haphazard acceleration towards a techno-utopic transformation of humanity has faulted, and as William Gibson put it wisely, is leading us to live in a “half assed singularity”. In this reality, artistic processes are influenced by excessive access to computational tools and assistance, but not utterly controlled. 

On UltraBody, sound has no separate existence from space.

Florian TM Zeisig returns to enmossed with an LP of new material, 𝑴𝒐𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝑪𝒂𝒑𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑶𝒇 𝑩𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑶𝒃𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒕 under a new moniker, Angel R. On this latest sonic offering, Angel R arranges the recordings with an undertone of hope, letting the aural dramaturgy unfold sans forced melancholia typical of the genres contemporary cliches. Zeisig’s signature attention to the circular gravity of the loop is again showcased, but Angel R takes the dynamic to another plane for 𝑴𝒐𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝑪𝒂𝒑𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑶𝒇 𝑩𝒆𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑶𝒃𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒕 and allows for a swaying and staggered syncopation through choice album selections.

Filtered samples bounce off each other as they rain atop muted synth pads. Familiar sounds of nature become redefined through bit reduction, where grain illuminates new beauty in the re-examination of the sources. Angel R uses delay as a method of recall and deterioration, at once creating the new and delineating the end of the passages provided. At times reserved, at other moments bold and declarative, the album takes on the gamut of emotive signals to take the listeners through a narrative of complexity.

The final katharsis release of 2024 is the 26-track compilation “Physical Force” featuring a wide range of affiliated artists from both the international and local Copenhagen electronic music scene. As the title hints, Physical Force delves into the visceral, bodily aspects of music, inviting its contributors to explore the theme of movement as a central element in their compositions. Each artist was encouraged to focus on rhythm, groove, energy, and the physicality of sound, which resulted in drum-heavy release from start to finish. While there is a consistent emphasis on rhythm and a bodily connection to the music, the tracks vary widely in style and sonic texture, ranging from big melodic anthems, gritty experimental techno, heavy jungle bangers, and beyond.

released December 23, 2024

Jonnnah - Too late, but thanks

H.D. Reliquary is the first eponymous release from Ben Shirken [a.k.a. Ex Wiish], and finds him returning home to 29 Speedway. The songs sparked during sessions with close collaborators - across 11 pieces, artists such as Pavel Milyakov, MIZU, Dorothy Carlos, Kevin Eichenberger and Muein breathe personality into the record. H.D.R. coaxes beauty from a serrated, raw, yet subdued palette drawn from improvised recordings of trumpet, violin, upright bass, cello, Max/MSP and modular synthesis. 

The title references the hard drive as a sacred container for relics, contemplating how digitally archived fragments of one's existence can burn eternally after death. Archives, and in this case recordings, splinter and warp. Some distort what they contain. Some vanish, and others are eternally preserved, immune to deletion. Your information on these digital drives becomes archival shrapnel, the music that survives the remnants of collaboration. 

Quick to note the dangers of creating music with ecologically intensive, mass marketed, and unethically trained AI software, Shirken employed bespoke, resource-light machine listening techniques for some of the compositional process. Pieces of recordings were fed into a series of proprietary neural networks, generating MIDI information and audio that reacted to on-the-fly soloing, imaginary sessions between players and algorithms invented posthumously (in post). 

Shirken will release H.D. Reliquary alongside a sound installation on April 11. He has performed in spaces such as The New Museum, Pioneer Works, Public Records and Nowadays in New York City; Dripping Music And Arts Festival in New Jersey; La Station in Paris; and Cafe Oto in London. In recent years, he has also been a foundation of the elusive free jazz group Nu Jazz. Where his prior work was geared towards dissociation, H.D. Reliquary invites us to contemplate how our tools for understanding and containing the world fundamentally alter our relationship with it.
