As always here at The Moth Club we are letting the music do the talking.

This time around we have the soft and succulent sounds of Fred Canelas aka Freud.

Brining the music to the forefront, experimenting with dubbed out elements and iced out soundscapes

Freud working with Michael Versa here for the first time, truly a match made in dub. With Versa's remix rolling out most of the elements of the original in his own signature style, noisy, rustic yet clean and beautiful 

As always you can find the digitals on our band-camp page and the record on our website below, exclusive to 50 copies. This includes HQ print of the artwork and stickers, first come first serve never to be pressed again so do not sleep on these!

HOLE IN THE GROUND (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
CAT NUMBER: NO 12
RELEASE DATE - 8th September 2023

The Hole In The Ground (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is bursting with rich treats from the imagination of Amon Tobin. 
A film in audio/visual excerpts, each track has its own short selected from the visual explorations of Tobin’s alter ego Shy1 and musically we are teased with beguiling and frightening hints at what the story of this place we see might be. 
It’s a collection of music and imagery playing with themes and deliberately incomplete narratives,  inviting us to wonder; where is this place? What is the story of these characters?
The viewer is left enough space for their own imagination to begin to fill in the gaps.
It’s an enjoyably menacing process. 
The perpetual undulation between hope and fear coursing through each and every minute of the EP’s 6 tracks.

Opening with the ominous, glittering Hole in the Ground with plaintive cries from the edges of the universe, Ghost of a Star brings a disturbing and delicate urgency through sound and visuals where we appear to be presented with the sculptural, modular construction of a Black Hole. A portent of what is to come or a playful game the Gods play to amuse themselves?

If we could intercept the conversations the machines are having then Wolves in the Yard is how they may sound. It builds and builds leaving us with an inkling that perhaps something that is not our friend is coming close.

Larkspur reveals a beautiful, biomechanical temple and its acolytes. But did they arrive with the vessels featured in the earlier Hole in the Ground film or do they worship them? Again the questions… What is this place? Who are these people?

Self Collider tantalises with elements of light, in sound and vision. A different climate suggests there is more than one tribe in this evolving world and there amongst the triumvirate of dancers is a character already familiar to Nomark devotees, Figueroa. 
Celebration, ritual or necessity? The billowing choreography of Self Collider’s dancers is filled with an intense  grace and a fierce determination etched onto the faces that we can see. As their dance comes to an end there is an enigmatic serenity in their eyes. 
There’s something curiously optimistic and grand about Pale Tundra that keeps you guessing. A mighty rock looms large in an otherwise flat and ice encrusted landscape, as our view sweeps across this unnatural wonder your eyes are drawn by details you may not have noticed at first. Beneath the horse like rock paintings, are there really petrified faces trapped in the lines and shadows of the cliffs or is it just a pareidolic response?

Hole In The Ground (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is a glimpse into the developing work of film score and story.

Patch Notes:

This was a patch experiment using the new Mutable Instruments Rings/Clouds Modules, and trying to create strumming/plucking guitar like sounds within a patch. The inspiration came from playing around with the Clouds Parasites 1.3 alternate firmware running in the Resonator mode highlighting the "scatter" (or strum) function. The master clock was the Tiptop Circadian Rhythms module, taking the first 4 outputs into my Nord Drum 2 for the Kick, snare, closed and open hi-hats. From there the clock output from the CR was multiplied and then sent to the Modcan Touch Sequencer. First row output from the TS was sent to the intellijel Shapeshifter creating a two note baseline sequence that comes in at 1:58. The second sequence Row2 output from the TS was sent to the "ALM Akemie's Castle" module OSC A output using the chord function, that comes in at 25 seconds. The gates from the modcan where set to a 16th's pulse sequence. Modulation from the synthesis technology E102 Quad Temporal Shifter output 1 modulating the Multiplier input on Operator 1. The 2, 3 and 4 outputs from the E102 where also modulating the Operator 2, 3, and 4 inputs on the Akemie's Castle. This was creating the harmonic timbre changing as the sequence was playing.

The slowly evolving sweeping noise textures that come in at 1:09 is from the Music Thing Radio Music module. The sample was a white noise sampled lightly filtered and then sent to the intellijel HexVCA with the amplitude CV control via a Intellijel Dixie modulating from slow to high rates (free running). The Make Noise Rene was being externally clocked from the Circadian Rhythm, and was sending out a quantized output to the Mutable Instruments Clouds pitch input creating the chord guitar sequence. The strum sounds on Clouds was played by the 4ms QCD running in 32th division output into the Trigger input. The freeze input was also triggered by a Ladik R-110 Random clock module. The combination of the two created the trill chord like strums.

The bass guitar tone sound that comes in at 1:24 are from the MakeNoise Mysteron, that is being sequenced by the Modcan Touch Sequencer, Row Output 3 was programmed in the same key but a lower octave. The "Rings" module was creating slow attack soft high pitched chords in reverb that come around 2:50. There was additional processing of the Clouds output that was sent into the Tiptop ZDSP module running the "Halls of Vahalla" card program 8 "Ginnungagap" creating the high pitch octave deep reverb shimmer effects. The harmonic slow swells that come in at 3:30 where created using another intellijel Dixie oscillator sine output running into an Strymon "Big Sky" pedal being harmonically controlled by an intellijel µScale V1. The output was being played slowly then processed using the "Choral" mode, creating the slow shimmer swells. The entire mix was sent into the Eventide Space pedal using the "Corridors" patch.
