Kairogen: Space – Time – Radio Buena Vida 05.01.22

Have you ever gone outside on a cloudy day and smelled that it was going to rain? Or, after a rainstorm, noticed that there was a certain smell in the air? Childhood memories come to mind when playing in the puddles of water was the best moment of the day. It was the time when the smell of earth meant the onset of a joyous season.

Petrichor is the term given to that unique scent following a rain shower – when the world seems to sigh with pleasure, and we, unconsciously perhaps, breathe in a little more deeply, savouring the smells in return.

Francesco Piunti is the man behind @deepbreakfastseries, a brilliant and touchfull mix series focused on ambient sounds. Our maximum true respect for the dedication, knowledge and excellent way of doing. Returning to the term petrichor, Francesco gives us a short poem from Leah Snyder that goes like this:

“I step outside, the sky above gray as slate
petrichor seeping up through the grass,
engulfing my state of mind as i inhale
and guiding me into a place of hushed abstraction”.

Definitely, petrichor is more than just a happy smell. It is a promise of abundance, a welcome chance of survival and shelter, and a hope that the merry childhood days will be back again.

.CHPTR042 ‘Petrichor’ | Francesco Piunti

Everyone at some point in their existence experiences a critical moment in their busy life where big decisions can lead to big change, both at work and in life. A turning point that make your life never be the same again. A new you, a new us.

David is a die-hard record collector who has been playing them around the North of Spain and Europe for more than 15 years now. Since three years ago he's more focused on Escala de Grisos, his monthly radio show on a local station, where he plays and discuss about ambient, techno and anything in between as well as making some interviews.

David has recorded the following mix with that feeling of knowing that something huge is about to change in his life, just like what happened at .apart in a way. Hence the name translated into Catalan :)

A magnificent true personal musical journey where he captures with great sense and extreme delicacy a long list of antonyms such as fear-hope, uncertainty-desire…

To sum up overall, David shares the following poem:

"... The rocks crash, the puddles splash, the mirrow ripples, the calmness returns, so are the turning points of life that disrupt our world to only steer us onto a path more right than the one before, let the wind blow as it may, for it's only wish is to whisk you away to a destination where your heart will find a true home, a place where the doubts and confusion have no life supply, for when the turn is complete, a soul once lost, will be found, only to realize it was all part of the journey, and around the corner there is so much more to see ...

.CHPTR043 'Turning points' | D. Humo

As if it were a migratory journey, we move away voluntarily or forced, unfortunately some, from a cold and normally noisy city full of hectic lives and people with a thirst for power. A walk towards nature/forest where human voices cease to exist to transform into animal sounds causing a feeling of refuge and closeness. We leave behind a world of concrete and welcome the sounds of mother earth.

Milan native Matteo, a clearly devotee of nature, investigates sound with high enthusiansm and dedication. He wonderfully creates a mellow amalgam of layers using over-reverberated synths, field recordings, and self-created samples. Atoloi is constantly searching for another dephts in which the listener can get lost while getting submerged by heavy-grained noises and evocative instrumental compositions.

Matteo has left us the following text: “I tried to represent this slow march in a real and, at the same time, emotional forest, in which memories and the outer cosmos merge into a unique and cathartic experience.

A pleasant stroll through the forests of Ego. “A universe born from the perfect union between the external environment and the inmost emotional unconscious”.

.CHPTR044 ‘Due passi tra le foreste dell'Io’ | Atoloi

Aboard a spaceship lined from top to bottom with neon lights and made of sound remnants, noises, samples, field recordings and modular synthesizers; we're heading somewhere where we're just pure spectators. During the trip piloted by Mocrobo, a rich auditory landscape full of magnificent sound waves of different shapes/sizes can be seen/heard through the ship's windows. Melodic and harmonic at times but loud and terrifying at others. Distant voices and modules weaving a varied network of shots that cover styles such as pop, ambient, noise or trip hop.

Victor is an experimental musical artist from Jaén (Spain) who is difficult to classify and comes from the most extreme confines of metal. His creations took a radical turn towards the electronic field attracted by the great variety of nuances and possibilities that exist in the synthesis of sound and experimentation with classical processed instruments.

Victor reminds us that ‘if for someone being locked up at home is a better idea than going out for fresh air, perhaps a Lyra 8 could become a great friend’.

.CHPTR045 ‘Neon System’ | Mocrobo

"De las entrañas del ego q vomita la furia unicelular del individuo en llamas, la máquina análoga experimenta el hecho, escupiendo a través del Mosco Dantesco vidas q vociferan gritos indescifrables en su Cualquiera...Cualquiera"

Helecho comes from Rosario (Argentina) where through his electronic gadgets he takes experimentation to a very personal terrain.

In this week's Observatory radio show, the https://soundcloud.com/sungate-records crew has invited Japan-based DJ & Producer CTAFAD aka https://soundcloud.com/sulumi for the first hour of the show, followed but yet another great mix from label co-founder Hakk (https://soundcloud.com/hakkmusic )
"The music in this mix covers a very large time span. I started producing electronic music in 2000, and now it has a large span and rich musical history. I have been following the musicians who have influenced me from 2005 to the present, although some are unknown. But I hope I can introduce their music to everyone, to the music of some musicians and friends I have met in recent years, and my latest unreleased music." - CTAFAD

Observatory 037 - Sungate [with CTAFAD & Hakk]

Allow London based producer Fortresses to take you on a blissful journey through the clouds to ease you into the weekend. Fortresses is the Ambient project of London-based multidisciplinary artist Sam Ashton.

Sam describes the mix as “a selection of old, new, and as-yet unreleased pieces of Ambient music that are providing a lot of inspiration for my own work.

The mix includes contemporary takes on New Age aesthetic, grainy lo-fi loops enshrouded in tape hiss, and expansive  Dark Ambient atmospheres.”

So as always, sit back, relax and take a load off. Enjoy.

BrokenLoop Podcast #380

I'm happy to finally share this journey, streamed on Radio Raheem during the latest UNIT episode.

For this one i decided, instead of mixing in the ‘classic way’, to create a sonic environment of more than 40 tracks; warping, ripping, and drawing details and frequencies from each one of them, creating 30 minutes of submerging sounds flow + one final credits track.

It’s probably one of my personal favorite works/experimentation i've ever done; sooo hope you'll enjoy it as i did while working on it.

Thanks to Ivo, Federico and Riccardo for the invitation <3

See you,
Matteo
