'Harmonium I' initially started as a DIY project to experiment if I could play my Harmonium for 12 Hours and also a way to escape from my own norms of working that I had set for 'Bios Contrast'. The project soon turned into a developmental hell when I decided to turn it into a 24-hour project so that it includes both 12 Hours of Remodeled and the Raw Recordings version of the record.

When I started questioning the entire nature of this project I discovered how sound and music can be weaponized and used as a tool for torture so I decided that this record would be the first and last of its kind there will be no Harmonium II nor a physical copy.

It is recommended that you listen to no more than two tracks a day.

'Harmonium I' was recorded at my storeroom studio in two days by compiling eleven 60-minute performances, a 49-minute performance and an 11-minute performance of Harmonium (opened springs) all recorded using two Omnidirectional Microphones and pumped by switching between two hands at random intervals.
The Raw Recordings tracks uses little to no EQ whereas The Remodeled tracks uses Heavy Processing and Multilayered EQ.

The last two tracks 'Studio Suicide, 2020' & 'Studio Suicide, 2021' were played with two hands on Harmonium using a modified 8000 RPM CPU fan with high resistance wires connected at the back of the Bellow using screws and were recorded during the final export stage of the album. It is a way of translating how music for me has died since 2021 during the pandemic. It is also a reference to Tim Hecker's "Studio Suicide, 1980"

15 Bonus items in Bandcamp includes multiple pictures of the Harmonium from different angles and the full key combination of the record together with CD designs of the unreleased physical version.

This record is priced €6 in Bandcamp because I encourage you to donate the money if you want to pay more to any charity you trust or a person in need.

DJ DIE SOON ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM AND SHARES ‘UNFINISHED’ FT. KIKI HITOMI & FRANCO FRANCO
‘MY BROTHEL THE WIND’ IS SET FOR RELEASE ON 25TH JULY

DJ DIE SOON is the apocalyptic alter-ego Daisuke Imamura, whose performances of masked malice have been a fixture in the Berlin underground for the past decade. Announced today alongside its first single, upcoming record 'My Brothel The Wind' takes inspiration from Sun Ra at his most grotesque, conjuring a distorted phantasmagoria with an eclectic crew of compatriots like Rully Shabara, Sara Persico, and longtime collaborator Kiki Hitomi.

Out today, first single ‘Unfinished' is a pulsating chimera featuring animalistic vocals from Kiki Hitomi of Ninja Tune bass explorers King Midas Sound, with Italian MC Franco Franco’s verses snaking underneath the noisy onslaught:

"I instantly knew that the song would be the first on the album. Raw, heavy and noisy - these elements are crucial for my art and Kiki and Franco boosted them even more with their voices.” DJ DIE SOON

'My Brothel The Wind' shows DJ DIE SOON as an alchemist of distortion, transmuting the club-forward beats of his 2020 debut Kappa Slap and the seething horrorscapes of DIEMAJIN, his 2022 collaboration with Tokyo vocalist MA. Imamura’s obsession with noise stems from his upbringing in Tokyo, where he grew up hearing the deafening roar of trains every day. “The buildings were really tall, so the sounds reflected so much and it was so loud that you couldn’t even have a conversation on the phone. Hearing this noise every minute when living in this flat, it became a normal thing,” he says. While most would content themselves with avoiding loudness, DJ DIE SOON seeks to unpack its visceral potential.

While Sun Ra’s intergalactic Moog reached for the stars, DJ DIE SOON plunges into the depths of hell. Rather than a vision of the future, 'My Brothel The Wind' is a laugh-cry of despair in the face of a Hadean present. DJ DIE SOON confronts the world with a new hand-made mask, reborn in the ashes. Film director Hiroo Tanaka’s visual contributions in the album art, poster, and music video complete the album’s narrative, telling a story not of villainy but of phantom caprice in a dying world.
