Two visionary maestros, Pierre Bastien and Michel Banabila, unite in their first collaborative album, Baba Soirée. The veterans of electronic music bring their unique expertise to the table, resulting in a captivating fusion of experimental styles. Bastien’s mechanical loops and experimental instrumental setups merge seamlessly with Banabila's sound design and impeccable skills of sampling collages. It's not a dance party, nor is it an avant-garde intervention. It's a soirée: a cultivated evening of sonic alchemy hosted by these two charismatic gentlemen.

Pierre Bastien is a composer and multi-instrumentalist with a background in French literature. He has spent decades crafting an idiosyncratic world of experimental sound with his self-built mechanical orchestra Mecanium. It was most notably showcased in audiovisual releases on Aphex Twin's Rephlex label. Bastien's creations are a mesmerizing combination of traditional instruments (he has a vast collection) and mechanical automatons. The violin in the track Rotomotor, for example, is physically played by one of his machines. In Baba Soirée, Bastien also plays a prepared cornet (Slow Dance, Banbas Aura), infusing the recordings with a breathy, dreamy dimension.

Michel Banabila, a sound artist, composer and producer, possesses an eclectic musical repertoire that defies genres. His seamless blend of minimal electronica, tribal ambient, and neo-classical influences has earned him a prominent place in the world of experimental music, and an impressive discography (Knekelhuis, Bureau B, Séance Center, a.o.). Banabila serves as the creative sampling editor for Baba Soirée, expertly weaving together the recordings to craft an evocative sonic tapestry.

The two share a curiosity for traditional instruments from various cultures. The instruments used in the recordings are shown in the cover artwork. A mutual admiration for each other's work paved the way for this fruitful artistic partnership of the Rotterdam-based artists: Collaborating on a single as a fundraiser for Yemen in 2022 set the stage for the creation of Baba Soirée.

For Pierre Bastien, Dada, Fluxus and International Situationism have played a significant role in shaping his artistic vision. The title Baba Soirée is an homage to Kurt Schwitters and Theo van Doesburg's "Kleine Dada Soirée" collaboration which took place exactly a century ago. There's an unmistakable stoicism and an anarchic not-giving-a-f*** attitude in these recordings by Bastien & Banabila, which resonates in the light of this Dada reference.

Pierre Bastien, Michel Banabila: Walk The Talk (Pingipung 083 / LP, digital)

This is a warm, gentle house track 118bpm with an organic evolving groove, rich bass and percussive elements. I was trying to evoke pastoral settings here, seeing the sunlight refracted through tree canopies as you cruise down the highway on a warm sunny day without a care in the world. 
By including airy sounding higher synth pads, delicate string swells, and movement of the filter cutoff on the lead synth, I aim to recreate the sounds of the wind moving through the trees and rustling the leaves with a soft breeze. 
Thanks for listening.

The Second Reinassance

We are very happy to present you the first new release on Back Home after a long pause. Check out YGLO´s refreshing & stunning Weekender EP!
"The daily warmth slowly fades, the sun moves in lower paths, indicating that the indian summer has arrived. When you're burning up the coals of the campfire with another twig, hoping this time will never end. Fridays sun starts to set while the sparkling fire is still up,tangling with the night sky and you're dancing with your friends into saturday - until you fall asleep. Waking up at dawn. You stoke the last coals to keep you warm on this sunday morning."

Yglo - Sundays

From "A Forward-Facing Review".
Composed, performed, recorded and produced by Philipp Rumsch between February and July 2017.
Mastered by Markus @ Abendroth Mastering.

„A Forward-Facing Review“ is one of his works resulting from a one-year study period at „Rytmisk Musikkonservatorium“ in Copenhagen. In contrast to his previous work, Rumsch is responsible for both composition and sound design / mixing. Inspired by composers like Morton Feldman, Giacinto Scelsi and Elaine Radique and by the music of William Basinski, Tim Hecker, Brian Eno and Ben Frost, Rumsch draws up concepts to approach electro-acoustic music with pianistic elements. By only using acoustic and electronic keyboard instruments like piano, fender rhodes and various synthesizers, Rumsch first created the sounds for his composition in order to manipulate and edit them on the computer.

"A Forward-Facing Review" is a twenty-minute long concept composition with two parts exploring in two different ways a various amount of sounds as well as their gradual modulation. "Part II" is the more minimalistic chapter of this composition. An almost constant number of elements creates a sonic composition, which rests in itself. Thus development emerges through a gradual modulation of a few parameters. Philipp Rumsch invites the listener to accept subtle developments and offers the possibility to immerse into a difficile and diverse soundscape. 

Danish artists Anders Bach and August Rosenbaum as well as Icelandic composer, sound designer and multiinstrumentalist Valgeir Sigurðsson supported Rumsch in producing „A Forward-Facing Review“.
