aeriform & King Softy [live from Backsteinboot April '22]

For Balmat’s fourth release, we turn our attention close to home: to the Mallorca-born, Barcelona-based artist @nueen, aka Nacho Pezzati.

Nueen has been developing his highly personal style of blissfully Balearic ambient over the past few years, with releases on labels like Quiet Time Tapes and Good Morning Tapes. On Diagrams of Thought, he explores new depths in his sound. His atmospheres remain bucolic, but there’s a disturbance at work, a hint of uncertainty swirling beneath seemingly placid pads.

While Diagrams of Thought retains the ambient (or at least ambient-adjacent) focus of all Balmat’s releases so far, the album also marks new frontiers for the label; the album’s first half is graceful and largely beatless, but the mood grows murkier with the foggy drones of “Dome” and the intimations of liquid drum ’n’ bass on “Maxima”; “Veta,” meanwhile, might just represent the most forceful rhythm to appear on a Balmat release yet. 

Despite the album’s considerable range of moods, tones, and textures, it’s all tied together by a singular preoccupation, says Nueen: 

	“Lately, I’ve become conscious of my fascination for the notion of the break, on a conceptual and musical level. What’s temporary and what’s permanent. Thinking and making out of what isn’t there, yet is. Some people would call it silence, but it could also be a skip of the needle, an ellipsis. Something very basic—or Basic Channelesque. A set of sounds and silences, structuring just a hint of rhythm. Sounds that become silences, and silences that become sounds. 

The other day, I was saying to someone that for me, the sound of electric current running through the power lines above the train tracks is the most ambient sound there is. That infinity in which you never quite grasp all the harmonics and reverberations. It’s a form of time detained or expanded. Recently, I’ve been rereading Morton Feldman—you can tell, right? Vertical time, the silence that sounds. A sort of sacredness. My mind is blown every time I walk into a church, for whatever that’s worth.”

Four years after their acclaimed album PSYOP, the London/Vilnius based duo Watching Airplanes is back on Banlieue Records with the four tracker "Elusive Still EP". 

Leaving aside PSYOP's cybernetic electro-funk and futuristic aspects for a deep and nostalgic opus, Watching Airplanes bequeath to whoever will found it, the touching manifesto of two souls being connected for the last time. Through 4 humble and elegant pieces, they yield a delicate bouquet of illbient and dub-infused ambient-techno, flourishing as a wistful tribute to friendship and good times.

Release date: November 21th on Bandcamp

With this work, I’m starting a series of pieces called ‘Invocations’ in which I aim to explore how the human voice can emerge organically from within the ensemble and be portrayed in different facets because I’m interested in contrasting the human quality of uniqueness and rawness of voice against music instruments.

Each invocation is dedicated to something or someone. This first one is dedicated to the Hermit, which is my major arcana archetype in the Tarot according to Numerology. Whether we believe it or not, I’m particularly attracted to its poetic and symbolic dimension, as in the one who needs to descend into darkness and step into the unknown withdrawing themselves from noise. Within this solitude, they need to manage to light up their own lantern, to get to the essence of things and emerge again from silence with their blood transformed into the oil of their own lantern.

Invocación n.1: A mi arcano, El Ermitaño
