Lend Me Your Radio - Feb 18

Justin Varis (b.Cincinnati, OH 1979) is an American musician/composer living in Los Angeles. Drawing on the rich history of musique concrète while most recently exploring minimal single instrument composition, his music is one of contrast and contradiction. Abstract tendencies conjoin with basic intimate melodies. Disruptive sequencing is utilized alongside loops and repeating patterns. Meticulous audio editing creates calculated timing while improvised passages lend expressive mistakes. 

MOUNTAINS
"A collection of piano compositions highlighting not only evolving melody but the environment in which the instrument was recorded."

Form was recorded in the Winter of 2010/2011 and marks that very specific time in my life. I started recording Form after my project, feie, went on hiatus and for all I know may never exist again. This work reflects my understanding and appreciation for all things coming to an end. The album starts off kicking and screaming and slowly unwinds from then on. Sounds burst out like living organisms, somewhat imperfect and random and then fall apart by refolding into themselves. It carries a bittersweet sentiment, a dying organism so to speak. It is a desperate attempt to latch onto form, but losing it all to the elements. The sound is unstable and fragile. The low ends hold power over everything. It is a battle between what an individual pursues and the overwhelming power of nature. 

Aria Rostami-Cleare

The tracks in Astoria came from a year-long project to produce an improvisation a week.  They document not only my growth as a cellist, but my exploration of the electroacoustic possibilities of the cello. 

The OO-Ray | Moments of Quiet Technicolor

THE ARTIST
Coming from San Francisco, Aria Rostami’s music shares the same ebb and flow of his hilly and foggy city. Although very conceptually driven, Rostami's work tends to vary in mood and genre from song to song... a true lover of music rather than genre. His current work focuses on taking risks and facing change. Rostami has created ambient pieces for installations and produced scores for films.

UNIFORM
Uniform is a "remix album" and a follow up to my debut album Form. Form was about the deconstruction of sound while Uniform is about the reconstruction of it. Although the album contains only three proper remixes, the five new original tracks were guided by the spirit of a remix album. The songs were put together mostly by constructing field recordings, randomly recorded piano parts, and so on to create source material and then combined afterword to create songs. The new tracks were created to have some parallelism with the remixes. Uniform discovers the differences within similarities. Uniformity is nothing more than an idea; a force that turns and breaks from human lens to human lens.

Giuseppe Falivene -  A Cold Day

ALVA NOTO + RYUICHI SAKAMOTO - GLASS [N-044]

VINYL, CD, DIGITAL: http://bit.ly/N44-NOTON-SHOP

The emotional drama of the forty-five minute performance was echoed in the natural environment. A sudden rain storm forced the evening’s guests into the Glass House at the start of the performance. During the performance, the storm cleared into a dramatic red and pink sunset and concluded in nightfall. Rehearsing only one day before, Sakamoto and Nicolai experimented with a keyboard, mixers, singing glass bowls, crotales, and the architecture of the Glass House. Contact microphones were attached to the surface of the Glass House, and using various weighted gong mallets with rubber heads that were gently but firmly dragged along the surface of the glass, Sakamoto and Nicolai transformed the Glass House into an instrument, creating a wistful sounds of contemplation and longing. Similarly, Nicolai played two sets of high and low octave crotales with a horse hair bow. The pair improvised in what could be described as an intuitive call and response manner. This sense of fresh sound experimentation was captured in Derrick Belcham’s film of the haunting soundscape created by Sakamoto and Nicolai at the Glass House.

Pascal Savy is a French musician who lives and works in London. He creates organic ambient and drone music as a way to reflect on erosion, transition and decay. He utilizes tones, textures, micro-melodies and noise to explore atmospheres rather than narratives. His work often combines acoustic and electronic sources generated from field-recordings, pick-ups, tape loops, feedback, synthesisers or home made electronics which he transforms into dense and layered motifs. His works has been released on Hibernate, Feedback Loop Label & Twisted Tree Lines.

"Adrift is conceived as a sound exploration of a sea area in close proximity of the fictional island of Eilean. The land itself haunts the music as a spectral presence exerting a pull on the narrative and is occasionally seen through a thick veil of mist and fog. The eight tracks on the album works as a series of discrete but related mythical seascapes, each evoking in their own way the elusiveness and foreboding nature of this space."

Off Land - Amethyst

…just some suburban afternoon sounds of someone blowing leaves in the street.  I noticed the blower made a musically, eerie sound.  It lasted for about 15 minutes.

Just wanted to share.  Eeriness kicks in at about 0:00:25.

Recorded with an iPhone 4S sitting on the window sill.

Headphones recommended, but not required.

Raw Field Recording, No. 1

Beautifully destroyed particles of ambient noise and the memory of a melody.

Szymon Kaliski - Or Delicate

THE ARTIST
Luis' interests in sound have carried him from a small border town near Mexico to graduate school in London, then to an unexpected life in Seoul and other cities in Asia. He has exhibited sound installations in various parts of the world and worked on sound scores for films which have premiered in several different countries. A commitment to opening ears to sounds of all natures is what drives him.

BETWEEN WALKS
Lume II is taken from his extraordinary album Between Walks. Luis described the album as "a pause between transitory states in which I had the fortune to inspect, in detail, the sounds, sights and environments that I encountered while on walks."
