This track was done in the aftermath of a  devastating flood a friend of mine and a large part of a small town sustained , I was present for the the entire nightmare as we tried to save his house.  My music background is very divers, and when it comes to compositions it varies quite a bit. Its kind of a tribute, as I let my emotions flow.

Rafael Anton Irisarri is an American multi-instrumentalist composer, record producer, mastering engineer, and curator living in the state of New York. Irisarri embodies a new kind of composer: one who “exists in an undifferentiated welter of pop, techno, and classical,” according to Pitchfork. 

His recorded output heavily utilize bowed guitars, piano, strings, synths, field recordings, voices, and electronic instruments, creating dense clouds of blurry, hypnotic sound. Described by Drowned In Sound (UK) as “one of contemporary ambient music’s most celebrated practitioners,” Irisarri’s music often has a mournful, elegiac quality where ostinato phrases tap into minimalist ideals while atmospheric layers of effects suggests a more cinematic approach. In all, his compositions are deeply emotive and epic, like a symphony recording that’s been rescued from attic entombment after half a century. 

Irisarri’s latest work 'Midnight Colours' comes after a starkly stunning run of releases on Ghostly, Morr, Room40, and Umor Rex, among others. The eight new songs were conceived as a sort of soundtrack to the “Midnight Clock or Doomsday Clock” – a symbol which represents the likelihood of a man-made global catastrophe. Recorded in 2017, when the Clock was at 2½ minutes-to-midnight (the second-closest to midnight since the Clock’s start in 1947), 'Midnight Colours' permeates with the melancholy of memories resurfacing as you get close to the end of life: the regret, the closure, the uncertainty, the anxiety, and so on.

The result is perhaps Irisarri’s most moving and introspective work to date, unfurling a sort of epiphany symphony and sounding like a sunrise in slow motion. Irisarri experimented with the use of heavily “degraded” tape, played through a mis-aligned Otari 8-track tape machine that was constantly on the fritz. “I felt using tape gave the music a particular texture & character, like when you watch old news reels from the 1950’s, you know those that talk about the H-bomb, and how we are all doomed,” he explains.

Opening suite “The Clock” and “Falling Curtain” offer an elegiac dirge into the unknown, soldering on with humanity but pessimistic reality. “Oh Paris, We Are Fucked” retreats into a blur of mournful curiosity, while “Circuits” brings a glimmer of tragic hope. “Every Scene Fades” is brimming with eerie beauty and a distant, heaving rhythm that perfectly contrasts the morbid optimism of “Two and a Half Minutes.” “Drifting” and “A Ruptured Tranquility” bring a soberingly sense of reality, closing out 'Midnight Colours' harrowing narrative.

Boban Ristevski - The turn of the screw (Album Preview)
Releases: June 8, 2018 
Format: CD/Digital

Pre Order: https://shimmeringmoodsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-turn-of-the-screw

The title of the album - ' The turn of the screw ' bears a resemblance to, of course, Henry James. And the fourth track ' Conchis ' is directly inspired by one of the main characters of the John Fowles' amazing novel ' The Magus '. Having in mind the title and the atmosphere of the first track - ' Practical Magical Evocation ', it can be said that the whole atmosphere of the album is intended to be or sound magical. Let's hope for more to come in the same vein.

Ashlar are British duo Wil Bolton from London and Phil Edwards from The Wirral, Liverpool. They began collaborating around 2011 ahead of their debut release ‘Saturday Drones’ on Time Released Sound and followed this up with ‘St. James' Gardens’ on Hibernate Recordings in 2014. 

These albums were the result of lazy Saturday afternoons spent in various public houses in Liverpool’s Georgian Quarter which were followed by evenings spent jamming in Wil’s studio. In the early days, both artists were residents of the city, meaning impromptu recording sessions could be arranged with relative ease. However, after the first two albums Wil relocated back to London, which meant that when they began to work together again, a very different approach was necessary. Instead of jamming and producing together, they worked remotely, usually initiated by the sharing of recordings, which were then added to, processed and bounced back and forth until the final tracks emerged. 

With ‘Distant Scenes’ most of the sounds began as piano loops (played by Wil) and acoustic guitar parts (played by Phil), which were heavily processed and re-processed several times using both software effects and guitar pedals. Where the first two albums featured environmental sounds from the local area, the field recordings here were made by both artists separately, in wildly varied locations including Japan, Korea and the UK. 
Unlike their initial work, this new method of working has taken a great deal longer to fully realise, given that the process was less immediate and more meticulous. 

Distant Scenes is an album built around distance, time and space as their different recording locations inspired new but separate ideas. A warm but blurry canvas has been woven over a four year period, as time has rusted the memories of the good old days spent jamming on their earlier albums and newer ideas have been corroded into a melancholic fuzz.

The Canadian ambient producer presents an expansive audiovisual performance drawn from his vast body of work.

Loscil is the long-running alias of Vancouver-based ambient producer Scott Morgan. A former drummer for Destroyer, he signed to the Kranky imprint in 2001, which released his debut album Triple Point. Loscil has continued to explore the medium of ambient electronics in the astonishing 13 albums that have followed. Performing at the LENFILM Film Studio in St. Petersburg, he presents an expanded audiovisual performance that draws from themes he’s explored on recent albums, projecting his own custom synchronized visuals alongside a combination of reworked, improvised and newly composed music.

Настоящее ambient-путешествие с канадским музыкантом Loscil, чьи музыкальные ландшафты уже более 20 лет вдохновляют меломанов и музыкантов по всему миру. Лайв, который мы услышали в стенах съемочного павильона Ленфильм на открытии Gamma_PRO смело можно назвать одним из лучших гамма-переживаний.
