041: Fire-Toolz

Biomechanoid is the classic 1980 album by composer and flutist Joel Vandroogenbroeck. It’s 1980, in Munich, Germany, upstart production music label Coloursound Library releases their debut album. Capitalising on the success of Ridley Scott’s Alien film, the label dropped Biomechanoid, featuring cover art commissioned by HR Giger – whose horrific Necronom IV lithograph served as the basis for the design of Alien – and the music of the relatively unknown Joel Vandroogenbroeck. Comprised of bleak, cinematic synth soundscapes and percussion, the album served as an inaugural calling card for what would be a decade of dizzying solo releases by Vandroogenbroeck for Coloursound, running the gamut from Mesopotamian ethno-folk to synth sequencer funk to electro drum breaks to in-utero ambient delights.
 
Though the Belgian-born Vandroogenbroeck, 74, may not be a household name; in an ideal world, he would be. As the founder, flautist, harpist, sitar player and keyboardist of the seminal acid-fried Swiss psych outfit Brainticket, he spearheaded the groups three main (and collectible) releases in the early 70s – Cottonwood Hill, Celestial Ocean and Psychonaut. Combining a love of exotic instruments coupled with mind-bending out-of-body excursions, the ever-changing collective developed something of a cult following throughout Europe and earned a reputation as one of the heavier psych outfits on the circuit – which was something of a double-edged sword. While their experimental sound resonated with hippies everywhere, it didn’t with the authorities, who associated the act with heavy drug consumption and subsequently began a ban of their music, especially the Psychonaut album, if for the title alone. After that bitter brush with censorship, the group quietly disbanded in 1972.

After the dissolution of Brainticket, Vandroogenbroeck departed for the island of Bali with the intent of learning to build and play the gamelan – an ensemble of primarily percussion instruments from Indonesia. It would become yet another weapon in his ever growing arsenal of exotic instruments: he was already proficient in the sitar, harp, kalimba, assorted percussion oddities and all woodwinds by this point. Vandroogenbroeck became so enraptured with the frenetic sound of the gamelan that he subsequently left the tropics to start up a joged bumbung (a variation on a gamelan) band back in Switzerland. While playing small festivals and civic events with this group, Joel began to slowly gravitate towards the synth-heavy kraut sounds of artists like Tangerine Dream and Klaus Schulze at the same time. And once he began dabbling with oscillators, he never turned back.

After inking a library deal around this time with the nascent Coloursound label, who gave him complete creative control, Vandroogenbroeck began turning out releases at a rapid rate, often three to five a year, and under a variety of aliases like V.D.B. Joel, J.V.D.B, and Eric Vann. Starting with the desolate synth drone of Biomechanoid, he continued to expand his sound palette on while on Coloursound, moving from early arpeggiators on Computer Blossoms to percussive sound collage on Birth Of Earth; and from Oberheim DMX drum breaks on Video Games & Data Movements to Apple II ambient programming on Digital Project. Biomechanoid stands after all these years as an album full of dark, strange, disturbing soundscapes, the obscure side of Brainticket, proving how Joel was still a creative artist.

Paszka's new album 'Gluon' out not via Noumenal Loom! 

Digital - https://noumenalloom.bandcamp.com/album/paszka-gluon

'Gluon' feels like metadata management (or mismanagement) transcribed into music. Maximal electronic music with a keen focus on sampling, spatialization and timbre. It's at home alongside artists like Foodman, Yellow Magic Orchestra and Oval - straddling the line between saccharine pop and the experimental. Szymon is based out of Poland and also records as 1/2 of the duo @mukamukamuka

All songs composed by Szymon Sapalski

Portugal, 2029 A.D.

"The Endeavour To Understand" rose from the ashes of the nuclear fire.

Consisting of sci-fi amalgam of post-internet Dracula sounds, 90’s Asian movie soundtracks, digital soundscapes and dreamy glitch, ultimately being an epic personal journey where each track is a chapter of a massive story.

The fate of humankind depends on this album. Your mission is to protect it.

Superalma Project - Love Is A Many-Splintered Thing

@sortlegeme
The first release of the year on katharsis is the album “wandering” by danish artist sortlegeme. As the titles of the tracks reveal, the album takes the listener through different dreamlike sceneries with a eerie sense of anxiety as the common denominator. With jjjacob on the mastering and artwork of the album, sortlegeme’s album “wandering” sends the listener on a suspenseful trip of ambivalent melancholy.

The artist, who has earlier released tapes on labels like Moral Defeat and Perfect Aesthetics with styles ranging from tribal techno to noisy ambient, takes an even more filmic approach on wandering by interpreting the ghostly atmospheres and strange feelings he experienced throughout the pandemic year.

The incorporation of rhythms from genres usually foreign to him like hip-hop and jungle suits the artist’s narrative style and brings very vivid pictures the mind of the listener - stretching from the paranoia and psychotic mood on the track “climbing” to the dramatic chase-scene of “pursuit”. His more ambient style is present in the uncanny intro and outro tracks “turn” and “return”, but also on the gloomy yet picturesque track “shrinking”, which was premiered with the pre-order of the album.
