for INFO Unltd.’s show on Cashmere Radio 

One day City’s came to town. Some people would argue City’s just like any other mall, eating culture and souls, leaving it to rot in its dysfunctional digestive system. But how would they know? The saying went like this; once you go to City’s, you’ll never go back. Born from mist, she’s like a custom made divination, serving you all your prophecies in paper-wrapped lies.

Voices from inside the mall: Ming Lin, Yen Chun Lin, Nikhil Vettukattil Kameran Nayyer, Adam Dove, Tosia Leniarska

SOUFFRANCE FM #40 / HAJJ (RUNNING IN LOVE, DYING IN MADNESS)

18 months since their last release, H2OP return with the “Pass Emotions” EP.

Like the calm play of shallow waters, there is a soothing elegance to the new designs of H2OP that disclose nature's most gentle side. The production feels lighter, and the sea the group travels is more at ease, but their fix on the horizon is as concentrated as ever.

“Pass Emotions” marks the first instalment in a series of EPs to follow from the trio.

Pass Emotions

H2OP - Pass Emotions

A cinematic cut from City & i.o’s forthcoming album ‘Chaos is God Neighbour’. 

Filled with tension and eery soundscapes, ‘Bomb-blasted Stack’ featuring vvilms leads into the shorter part of the album with a duration of 3 minutes 52 minutes, however, it is packed with emotion. Starting with ominous synths, the track drifts into a blissful piano melody layered with crackling effects, almost like a haunting lullaby finding the beauty within the murkiness. 

‘Chaos is God Neighbour’ is the full-length follow-up to their 2019 record Spirit Volume and features extensive contributions from collaborators Dis Fig, x/o and vvilms. The album was composed at frenetic pace over several weeks in mid-2020. 

‘Chaos is God Neighbour’ by City & i.o is out tomorrow via Editions Appaerent - pre-order here: https://editionsappaerent.bandcamp.com/album/chaos-is-god-neighbour-2

Ku Ku ~ Wind Waker Water Texture

Food, sex, glory to God; in which order? Do you first eat, and then pray to thank Them? Or perhaps coupling takes the top spot for you. 

Each of these three fundamentals is about service. What is your way of serving others while you’re in this world? And will we keep doing it ever after? In heaven—if we’ll make it there—will W serve us their mass of resonating frequencies and clipping digital ornaments? 

A new release by W is here to go alongside our feasts, orgies, and other acts of devotion. Yes, it’s suited for all kinds of services. You must try it on fried fish, living bodies, or celestial ones. 

From right to left and back again from left to right; W spins the middle frequencies into a ritual that helps us to forget ourselves. For a while, heaven and earth exist on the horizon, instead of the vertical. 

The sonic horizon reminds us of the beauty of the plain from which nothing arises to compete with God. What's more, the panning offers an exercise in humility: everything is around you, but you’re not the center. 

The distorting of those sweet basslines tells you that what you’re hearing is growth and rot, crop and compost, both at the same instance. The distortion invites you to go medieval—think Ars moriendi, the art of dying. Learn from these sounds by reflecting on how they’re ready—but not willing—to leave this plane at any moment. 

The sounds that make up Maanpinna follow neither a linear understanding of time, nor a hierarchical understanding of bodies, but an instantaneous one of both. You could call it quantum music, but then why would you do so when you can call it a service? 

Of the three acts of services mentioned, sex and God demand the most trust. Can you trust these sounds? You could learn to do so by listening to them on repeat. No: forget the idea of being able to know music, forget beginnings and ends; try living with these sounds forever, always unearthing new aspects. 

Commit to the sounds, because why else would they trust you? Touch the wobbly melodies and feel them touching you like nothing has ever done before. 

Apart from the sea of sine waves, Maanpinna sometimes gives you bursts, pops, and washes of filtered white noise. They are gestures of good faith made by the music itself towards you. If you didn't trust the sounds before, perhaps now you will. 

Those bursts are not pure noise, but cut down to a serving size by W. The modified noise tells you what the dead always tell the living: ‘What I am, you will become.’ The art, in life and audio, is in learning to lose. It’s a lesson that reverberates deep in the bare soundscape of Maanpinna. 

It is music made from very few elements. And while reduction has always formed the basis for aural worship, on the hands of W, sounds are never reduced to the level of blasphemy: there's always the noise and the distortion.
