RVSHES - Eclipse (Abstract)

"And suddenly we had to do a live show. In Barcelona. Each of us being in a different country".

 What does the city sound like, what do people say, how do you feel when you are part of it? Either passing through, or as a local. 
These were some of the first questions we put on paper. Sitting in a Berlin bar. Trying to get the tone, before going up to Alex's house and turning on the machines.  

From here, visits to the city of Barcelona were made and small stories were captured in transit; streets, parks, neighborhoods, markets, encounters. Barcelona, basically. We came up with an unwritten script that situated us somewhere to release our musical language.  
____
.apart began its first steps with the 'Chapters', inviting either friends or strangers from remote places, to leave a sonic trace in our catalog. What we didn't know, or at least clearly, is that all these contributions would end up being our influences as musicians. A route through genres and styles to learn from. And one that brought us together to make this music.

You have given us one of the most important gifts. Artists and listeners. You are as much a part of this as we are. Thank you so much.  

And thanks as well to @mostrabarcelona, for being the dream stage, team and experience that this industry needs.

With this live, we are happy to announce that we put an end to a first season of chapters to start right away the second one. New friends, new strangers, new music. Seeya on Soundcloud.

hugs

.CHPTR047  'Barcelona?' | .apart

The true story is the one told by our ancestors. The one that comes from the earth. Because the earth holds within it all the memories of this world.
Izuran, "roots" in maziqh (Berber), explores what links us to each other, despite the distance, despite our differences.
Through this project, he expresses what deeply connects us to our origins. To symbols, the common root of all the peoples who share this world, from the Berber peoples to the other agrarian peoples of Africa, Asia, Europe or America.
Izuran is an inexhaustible field of buried and ancient treasures that make up the heritage of humanity.
This podcast focuses on the percussive sounds that connect us to the earth, or "Tamurt" in Berber, while creating a soundscape that can become a source of inspiration.

TREVE Series 74 - Izuran

Format: CD
Pre-order: 12th January 2024
Release date: 19th January 2024

On November 5, 2022, Daniel Carter and Stefan Christoff improvised together at the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Brooklyn, a community space, with strong connections to migrant justice activism, that is also a temporary home for many newly arrived asylum seekers some of whom sat to listen to the musical exchange. 
This session was the first encounter between Carter and Christoff that resulted in musical explorations. Remaining from this session were a couple of audio fragments which Christoff shared with a network of musicians globally who remixed and reimagined them. In Astronomy is the resulting album.
Thank you to Leina Bocar for helping to arrange the recording space, to Devin Brahja Waldman for helping to facilitate the connection with Daniel Carter, to Juan Carlos Ruiz at the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church for welcoming this project, to Jessie Stein for hosting me in NY on the weekend of this session and to all the awesome participating artists!

Ever wondered how our field recordings would sound processed through our gadgets? That's exactly what we've done. We're challenging ourselves to focus on listening first and then engaging in a conversation with our gadgets. Field recording becomes the only sound source and inspiration to craft musical stories. It's an all-or-nothing scenario. 

Twice a week we're inviting you behind the scenes, documenting the entire creation process in our website – from pressing 'Record' on the recorder to the gadgets and apps used to the final musical narrative.

"For this first .FTF, I rescued a summer field recording. One of those many days, recorder in hand, hunting for sounds. This one was right next to home. The kids were enjoying a sunny day by the pool while blasting the TV. Fragments of a movie could be heard from it. I was captivated by a melody and the conversation intertwining with the voices of the children. Quickly I hit play. I knew I was going to come back to this someday. And here it is"


Recorded and produced by Javier Galindo with a Zoom H5

Gear and AUv3 used: Gauss, Borderlands, Fluss, Dials, Rymdigare, Mood MkII, Generation Loss MkII, Oto Boum, Ableton and loads of Eqs.

AMULET OF TEARS #3

https://entire.bandcamp.com/album/cassettes-part-2
Out on 09.02.2024

Along with unveiling the second part of the Cassettes project with 7 new compositions of exploratory ambient, drone, noise and emotion, I decided to share some of the project's background with you.

"Cassettes" are based on the concept of an imaginary scenario, in which the listener stumbles upon a long forgotten collection of unreleased music from a 'spiritual relative', familiarising with the work almost in an contemporary-archeological manner, accompanied by notes of nostalgia and a sense of uncovering a secret indirectly related to listener's own existence.

On a higher level, it's an expression of thought: the set and setting in which we consume sound can impact the experience with such strength at times, bending the default preferences, enabling deeper emotional responses, adding dimensions to the signal.

Personally, the project's inspiration stems from digging deeper into the history, lore, most-certainly-fake anecdotes, events and dynamics that cemented the roots and shaped the youngest branches of my family's tree.

Cassettes (Part 2) (entire.bandcamp.com)

"Storms in South Africa are nothing like I ever heard in Europe. Charged with rumble and low end oscillations, they crack the sky into echos that can travel the widest jungles and valleys. It comes and goes. Like a giant loop. Movement. Nature’s arrangement. 

A full length album. Inviting me to zoom in and deconstruct."

Recorded by Ameeva with Zoom F1 / Clippy stereo mic
in Durban, South Africa

Composed with Digitakt
