JUNGLE GYM RECORDS presents "Urbana Tide," an improvised environment from Dravier, V. Kristoff and Cafe Lounge. In this abandoned coastal metropolis, urban developments are consumed by the rising ocean tide, a modern scene of tragedy enveloped in the beauty of regrowth. Standing amidst the rubble a familiar serenity fills the air, as new beginnings take hold in the cracks of our fractured past. With quiet sophistication the future unfolds... exclusively from JUNGLE GYM.

Bernard Fort 'Fractals 1' (REGRM 024)

Years ago I read an interview with György Ligeti where he spoke about the overused European tuning system and how he tried to escape it. He mentioned a few ethnomusicologists whose recordings were primary inspirations for his work. One of the names was Hugo Zemp and I immediately delved into his unbelievable recordings collected on the Southern part of Malaita island around the year 1970.

The music of the 'are'are people back then was fragile and heartwarming, communal and sublimely celebratory. Ever since I simply haven't been able to escape the sounding of their panpipe ensembles. At the same time I feel really sad that - like so many plant and wildlife species - small local cultures are also disappearing at an alarming rate, theirs included. My whole research and artistic output can be seen as a dedication to these people of disappearing local cultures.

As a first step I recorded "Proto Equiheptatonic Music" last year where I used the theoretical equiheptatonic tuning system which is a close approximation of their musical DNA. Listen: bit.ly/2Sb6JsQ

As I studied more and more - thanks to the scientific papers of Mr. Zemp - I could see the structures in finer details and as a consequence I could record "Pseudo Equiheptatonic Music" where I was using the exact tuning system of their recorded panpipe ensembles - but in a completely different context and vision. So I cannot emphasize enough that these musics cannot be considered as representations of their musical culture in any ways, rather an uninterrupted continuation of the ever-expanding universe of Gosheven's ceaseless dreaming.

Syntop Audio 14 - Organ Arch

A series of bleak, blustery scenes make up Nazanin Noori’s Farce. Noori, who also works as a theater director, conjures glacial storms and buzzing subterranean server farms on this album; but such scenes were far from the artist’s guiding narrative as it was being produced. The two tracks, clocking in at 80 minutes total, were envisioned as an enraged argument (or a "modular heartbreak") unfolding between two groups of people about a pothole in the road, told from the perspective of the road, and then the pothole.

This surreal, mundane plot device is nowhere to be found on Farce in any concrete way. And this is intentional. Noori, inspired by Artaud's concept of the theatre of cruelty, wants listeners to develop their own sensorial world separate from the musician's. When not darkly ambient, the tracks are full of drama and whimsy, as if a spotlight is following a character along a wayward path, into the hands of fate. The emotional hooks in the sound include a sense of desperate desolation, optimistic reprieve, and of course, the sense that ritual repetition is both a curse and a blessing—but they resist obvious imagery. Exactly what kinds of characters or settings get hung on the album's scaffolding is up to the audience. Listening with a hi-fi sound-system is highly recommended.

Nazanin Noori is an Iranian artist living and working in Berlin, Germany. Her work includes theater and radio play direction, music, and text. She focuses on atmospheric narratives in sound, and works to overcome cultural reliance on sentiment by making dramatic adaptations of non-dramatic texts. She studied theater, film and media sciences at Goethe University in Frankfurt and worked at Deutsches Theater and Schauspiel Hannover. She currently selects Acid Folk for POMP, a sound scenario series on Retreat Radio, and is an artist-in-residence at the Young Academy of the Arts in Berlin.

taken from Simon J Karis 'Piovve' NM039

Simon J Karis returns to Nice Music with Piovve, his first release for the label since 2017’s Madrugada. Following from recent releases for Altered States and Vienna Press, Piovve offers up six tracks demonstrating the development and deepening of Karis’ obliquely emotive approach to electronic murk. Floating on clouds of tape hiss in smeared VHS fidelity, Karis explores a range of formal approaches, from the burbling monophonic synth lines and spoken text of opener ‘Infinite July’ to the four-on-the-floor kickdrum and wistful music-box melodies of half-remembered rave closer ‘Shale Pardon’. In between we’re treated to the drumless motorik propulsion of ‘To Think of You’, which calls to mind Moebius and Beerbohm’s Double Cut in its woozy rhythmic insistence before the mood is hijacked by a distorted devotional vocal sample that abruptly reroutes proceedings from the morose to the ecstatic. The opposite path is travelled in ‘On Ardour’ where jittering synth pads toy with euphoria before descending into pensive gloom. Across these six miniatures – each of which concludes with an abrupt cut to silence – Karis mines a vein where sonic experimentation and emotional reflection meet, crafting something uneasy but ultimately celebratory. -Francis Plagne
