To my favorite musician, who gaves me the sparks and the passion to create electronic music since 19 years....

Stone in focus ( Aphex Twin tribute )

BANGFACE 2022 Set

We return with a new installment of our cd series dedicated to the latest electronic experimentation.
This time we have the pleasure of having Synalegg who has given us an album full of complex rhythms and melodies.

In the artist's own words:
This album can be considered as the last part of an algorithmic trilogy that I started with Computer Series and then Violynt Tropiqs.
The first one was purely computational, the second one was a reconciliation. hArm0nii tanD3m is a collection of remixed computational proposals.
A collaborative tandem with the computer in the lead to execute the program and my intervention afterwards to exploit and remix the captured combinations, ideas, moments.
Sometimes the computer's contribution is the majority (lytUrgii, dytt0, sErp3Ntine), sometimes the scenario and the staging of the captured elements becomes the backbone of the tracks (sisYph3, wat3rl0oh, uBba).
This attempt at re-appropriation was a way for me to create another music that finds its essence in computer otherness.

This wonderful album will surprise you with the variety of new concepts that Synalegg introduces.
I hope you enjoy the trip as much as we have enjoyed the production.

ENG
nebulo is a French electronic musician based in Dordogne. He's released on labels such as Hymen, Orange Milk, Conditional, Le Cabanon (immense Parallaxes !)... and 3OP, for an essential LP with Horla, Pace Serpente (3OP008), as Othello Aubern.

The process here is experimental, the result immediate. MMXXII transcends the hyper-consumable towards a true piece of art. Indeed, the whole sonic palette derives from vocal sample sound-banks. One-shots recordings are altered, recontextualized, sublimized to the point of forgetting their origin. Raw materials with astonishing plasticity, conducive to countless melodic, micro-tonal, autotuned, rhythmic and timbral experiments.

One might dread some prevailing gimmicky concept within the music : it's quite the opposite. I've listened to this record dozens of times, from nebulo's early snippets he shared on Instagram to document his process to the masters : the marvelous, luxuriant, nuanced and overall breathtaking tunes instantly and repeatedly won me over. A total success.

Rather than dissecting each track (I could do that eh), let’s focus on MMXXII's 2 singles. zt is an unstoppable euphoric and visceral banger. sfumato, while being a formidable ear-worm, gives me goosebumps each and every time I listen to it. The rest of the LP is equally as decisive and adventurous.

MMXXII is a fabulous - pop - record.

nebulo est Thomas Pujols, musicien électronique français vivant en Dordogne. Ses disques sont sortis sur Hymen, Orange Milk, Conditional, Le Cabanon (immense Parallaxes !)… et chez 3OP le temps d’un LP essentiel avec Horla, Pace Serpente (3OP008), en tant qu’Othello Aubern.

La démarche ici est expérimentale, le résultat immédiat. MMXXII transcende l’hyper-consommable vers une oeuvre d’art à part entière. Ainsi, l’intégralité de la palette sonore provient de banques de samples vocaux. Des one-shots altérés, re-contextualisés, sublimés au point de très vite en oublier l’origine. De la matière première étonnamment plastique, propice à toutes les expérimentations mélodiques, micro-tonales, autotunées, rythmiques et timbrales.

On pourrait redouter le gimmick, la prévalence du concept sur la musique : il n’en est rien. J’ai écouté le disque des dizaines de fois, depuis les premiers teasers sur Instagram pendant lesquels nebulo partageait l’avancé de ses recherches jusqu’aux masters : je me suis simplement fait emporter par des morceaux incroyables, riches, nuancés, beaux au possible. La réussite est totale.

Au lieu de disséquer chaque morceau (je pourrais le faire eh), focus sur les 2 singles de MMXXII. zt est un imparable banger euphorique et visceral. sfumato, en plus d’être un redoutable vers d’oreille, me fout la chair de poule à chaque écoute. Le reste de l’album est tout aussi décisif et aventureux.

MMXXII est un fabuleux disque, pop.

Edward Johannes / Foresense - Sudden Fiction / Dots - Split EP (Previews)

New EP “Silent Revolution” from Adrien d’Elzius (formerly known as hosmOz) shows different facets of real IDM music: while taking the roots from the masters of the genre, with the trademark glitches, clicks and cuts, it has its own unique face with all the subtle melodies and atmospheres – and everything between the lines. As everyone else, artists have to find their place and purpose, and in this increasingly cold and surreal world, invaded by artificial intelligence technologies, the task can be delicate. The only revolution worth carrying out is an inner revolution, and the track titles give a clue to where to look to find inspirations from those who can light a candle in our inner chaos.
