Description: vus (leblanc contrabass clarinet + analogue electronics) Jason Alder studio recording 2019

this is so awesome! A very charismatic sound world.

The original ‘The Death Of Rave’ project releases in 2006 was vast, over two-hundred flashbacks, using all of the dance floor hits from the time and stripping them of energy and spirit, turning them into shadows and ghosts. The material pre-dates the recent obsession younger musicians have for re-creating remembered rave textures and memories. This was not nostalgia, It was an inverted paean to a time when the music was about bringing people together for a shared experience. A time when only the music, advancement of sound and getting on one mattered.

The Chain of the Spine [2017]
for violin, Paetzold contrabass recorder, cardboard, glass, and sine waves
Written for and performed by Faint Noise
Karin Hellqvist, violin [www.karinhellqvist.com]
Anna Petrini, Paetzold contrabass recorder [www.annapetrini.com]
Malin Bång, cardboard [www.malinbang.com]

In this piece, the instruments are highly individuated noise-producing bodies; autonomous and built of their own limited hoard of materials. The bodies are vertebrae, each with its own irregular, unwieldy, and irreconcilable shape. They are coextensive within a space, and form a vague suggestion of a larger archipelagic shape. Strange alignments emerge between the instruments, but these alignments occur over protracted, warped, smeared swaths of time. Each vertebrae links to another as in an inexorably tangled spine.
