Gatekeeper For Luar - Teteo Basico

ADR — Deceptionista 
Cat.No: PAN 68
Format: Digital / SD Card
Release date: 11 December 2015
http://p-a-n.org/

Released through PAN via digital and a limited edition SD Card as well as a series of live performances, Deceptionista combines the relentless unknowability of the real-time internet with ADR's distinct compositional approach, seeking to accelerate detailed, high-definition visions of public intimacies into a form of 21st century psychedelia; which embraces the cognitive derangement of the senses that defines the habits of today's internet browsing constituency.
 
As a classically trained musician with a propensity towards contemporary art & technology practices, ADR's work has distinguished itself through its formal deliriousness and playful tenor. In addition to his work as one half of the critically acclaimed Gatekeeper duo, ADR releases solo recordings, composes bespoke music for film, TV and advertising, and hosts an array of ongoing collaborations and maintains a practice of live performance and sound installation.
 
The project's visual representation takes the form of a playable video game-like environment where users can explore various geometries and particle systems, all skinned entirely in video texture maps sourced from Vpeeker. The dynamic color palettes and ephemeral energy that emerges from the onslaught of these randomly selected clips creates strings of incongruous alternations; where real conflates with virtual, irony conflates with true belief, and human emotion and spirituality conflate with the limitations of broadband upload speeds. Deceptionista seeks to dramatize these dichotomies by traversing the deep chasms between them.

ADR - THROAT LP
Format: Digital
Label: PAN
Cat.No: PAN 76
Release Date: 25 November 2016

‘THROAT’ is the new album by composer/producer Aaron David Ross (ADR). Arriving as the New York artist’s second release on PAN, ‘THROAT’ is made entirely from vocal sounds. It could only be crafted in the ultra-present; an age where the poetry of songwriting is flattened into catchy hooks. As words are sliced into sounds, ideas are reduced to sibilant syllables that still contain a range of emotional power, but deliver it in subversively different ways.

‘THROAT’ exploits these ways, borrowing vocal fragments from everywhere to collage a choral congregation of singing servers; pinging one another to create open-source equal-opportunity electronic pop music. Reichian polyrhythms EDM drop into Bieber-esque beatboxing. Hypothetical K-pop stars conduct holographic choirs in altruistic ritual. Virtual summer festival DJs transcode into pure phonemes; anthropomorphizing formant-shifted vacuums of communication. When you drop the cargo of making sense, you can go so much faster.

As a classically trained musician inspired equally by pop and contemporary art & technology practices, ADR’s work has distinguished itself through its formal deliriousness and playful tenor. Besides ongoing collaborations with an international community of vocalists, producers, artists and fashion designers, Ross releases solo recordings, composes music for film, TV and advertising, and maintains a practice of live performance and sound installation.

The release is mastered by Jeremy Cox featuring artwork by Alex Gvojic.
