More rusty and hypnotic sounds are brought by DJ soFa and his newest compilation, Elsewhere LVI. Released on Emotional Response, the 4th compilation of SoFa’s series is meant to move us to the gloomier part of his 12 track travelogue.
Lamusa II and his track Artificiale moves organic sound waves accompanying them with rhythmic shady synth pads, turning our listening journey to somewhat uneasy, yet fascinating trip across the jungle of sleazy and meditative notes.  Elsewhere LVI will come out on Emotional Response.

Lamusa II - Artificiale

Pierre Bastien orchestrates his meccano marionettes on Tinkle Twang ‘n Tootle to form the charming imaginative ensemble that he’s been known for since the late 80s. 

Equal parts composer, inventor, mechanic, and performer - Bastien translates his imagination into instruments and compositions that defy any musical categories. Whether it’s preparing instruments like playing a trumpet underwater or through a kazoo, using belt-driven motors and mechanical components to perform cumbersome yet surprisingly musical operations on traditional instruments and household items, or using a fan to hit the strings of a kundi harp with flowing paper - Bastien’s love for tone, rhythm, noise and harmony is poetically reflected across his quite extensive oeuvre. 

Playful and melancholic, the sound sculptures that Bastien invents and plays with are partly inspired by the work of Raymond Roussel, a visionary French author who at the turn of the 20th century wrote a unique form of literature which inspired and guided artists from the surrealist and pataphysical movement and was declared by Michel Foucault as one of structuralism's founding fathers. On that note, the influence of literature and syntax on Bastien’s work cuts all the way through to the palindromes he uses for his track titles - which, much like his machines, infinitely loop. 

True to it’s adorable title, Tinkle Twang ‘n Tootle is a music box of unfolding whimsical structures, half broken rhythms, detuned harmonies, and fantastical sound collages that evoke a childlike sense of wonder and an urge to explore the spaces in between the sounds.

Hailing from different places in western Europe, Luc Bersier, Low Bat, Leonard Prochazka and Ariel Garcia created this vibrant EP. Their synergy tells a story of creativity, freedom in sound and, above all, playfulness. Serious music while similarly not being to earnest. 
Their venture evolved into a very original blend of cosmic music, utilizing instruments that fit into the neofolk Krautrock domain, vocal experiments into French chanson territory, infused in Berlinian cosmopolitanism. Expect an exciting minimal wave synth punk orgy, punk definitely being the defining trait underneath these layers of sound. 
This is boundless music with attitude, capable of making us drift off and disrupt us in equal measure.

Canadian producer RAMZi gives us another glimpse into her magical world on her new album Multiquest Niveau 1: Camouflé, recently released on her own FATi Records imprint. In similar fashion to her offerings for 12th Isle and Mood Hut, she paints an extraordinary sound palette of everything from breaks and acid to Balearic and experimental. We've got the official video premiere for 'Attak Mousaillon', check it out below...

"This video represents hope for resistance hidden in the decadence of the zombies world. The main protagonists of the RAMZi world, who are the children and the animals, are as always teaming together to trick, and this time, poison the zombies in their morbidity.

This music video is the continuation of a Federico Lamas’s VJset made for RAMZi 's live show at MUTEK Buenos Aires in 2019. Federico's video-installations, animations and illustrations always works through irony. A funny troy horse full of recycled darkness."

Another podcast smells of forest and moss. You may hear the noise of tape in the background; perhaps it is a draught that makes dance the shadows on the walls of the cave illuminated by the flickering flame of the candle.
