A MINIMAL TECHNO TAKE ON GAMELAN BY DR.NOJOKE
https://clikno.bandcamp.com/album/berlin-gamelan

about
“Berlin Gamelan” is a conceptual techno album
It is inspired by Aaron Taylor Kuffner´s Gamelatron and the minimal techno of the clicks & cuts era around 2000.
Dr.Nojoke presents a seven-track deep trip of transcendental techno equally exploring atmosphere, sound and rhythm.

The artwork is created by Edouard Tandjaoui.

The story behind:
It was around 2007 when Dr. Nojoke and Zemi17 aka Aaron Taylor Kuffner crossed paths. Taylor had posted some unusual-sounding techno tracks with gamelan sounds on Soundcloud. After a few chats, Taylor sent a sample package of his recordings from Indonesia. In 2010, the two artists met by chance at the Boom Festival in Portugal. There, Taylor presented his Gamelatron, a robotic gamelan ensemble and kinetic sound installation.
Fascinated and highly motivated, the doc returned home, grabbed the audio samples from Zemi17, and began work on what became the Berlin Gamelan album. Ten years later, this music now sees the light of day.

Textures & Flexures is the new album of Dr.Nojoke released on February 22nd via the CLIKNO label.

Textures & Flexures is a different kind of an album.
It might need a new definition.
It is thought as a supplement to the music catalogue of Dr.Nojoke setting the focus on the build-up, the sound design and the process of how his tracks are made.
What is usually recognized as the background sounds gets the main part here.
It collects noises, moods and ambiences spanning productions from 2005 until today.
With Textures & Flexures you definitely get a deeper look into the sonic world and vision of Dr.Nojoke.

"I removed the beats and had a look at the rest and I really liked it. It intentionally feels a bit unfinished, a bit like an audio-sketchbook, like tracks in process or like snapshots", Dr.Nojoke explains.

It is for all the experimental DJs as well as for people, who are into deep listening and into Dr.Nojoke´s music in general.

AI. The second output in the MAT editions series on CLIKNO is a bass-heavy affair over four sides by Dr.Nojoke. Separated into the EPs “Anonymity” and “Intimacy” it is due to be released on August 7th, 2020.

The digital world and social media in particular change our perception and behavior; our values and morals undergo a transformation and shift. How much are we still anonymous? How much are we still intimate (with us/with others)? What does anonymity and intimacy mean to us today?
MUSIC. Dr.Nojoke shows on AI his deeper, darker, bassier and trippier side.

A. Petar Plet Plete is based on a Bulgarian tongue twister. The chant hypnotizes with its layers and endless repetitions over a straight Maurizio-esque groove with melodic percussion in odd time signature. Nivin grooves elegantly with typical Dr.Nojoke clicks and sophisticated loops of a mysterious female voice, whose melody reminds slightly to Kraftwerk’s Man-machine era.

I. EOW and Nuknot are both intimate orgies of thick textures of reverberations and reflections as if space is folding in itself and time is on hold. EOW seduces with a heavy kick-drum groove and a triplet bassline underneath crawling through unconscious memories. Woe! Nuknot is carried by eternal atmospheres, a low end bassline and a repetitious glassy clang, that can drive a crowd into madness - inspired by Moritz von Oswald and Deadbeat. Nuknot ends in an ambient lock groove

ART. CLIKNO curates artworks from living artists. For MAT ed.02 we are proud to present digital artist Lucas Gutierrez and his work “Your Mesh.sgl”, originally part of the exhibition ▬ Knowledge Of ▬ at Aperto Raum Berlin, 2017. An exhibition and dialogue exploring the term “knowledge” and the manner in which self-studies are structured within contemporary artistic approach.

TEXT. MAT02 comes with writings to anonymity and intimacy from the Danish philosopher, actress and choreographer Marianne Kjaer Klausen.

The album celebrates also the 15th CLIKNOversary of Dr.Nojoke.

https://clikno.bandcamp.com/album/muaco

In 2021 CLIKNO celebrates its 5th anniversary and presents with its 10th release a very special acoustic techno EP from Dr.Nojoke entitled “Muaco.
Muaco stands for Music against Corona and deals with the clubless time we are all experiencing.

When Dr.Nojoke picked up his Höfner acoustic guitar during the lockdown in spring he was looking for new inspirations. The recordings led to three brilliant poly-rhythmical tracks for a special trip far off the beaten path. 
Dr.Nojoke suggests his EP as much as a way for home-clubbing as well as a listening experience. We don´t even know, if it is techno or what, but as mostly all parts were created with acoustic guitar you may file it under acoustic techno or guitar techno.

We think it is just great groovy music - pulsating, hypnotic, danceable, kraut-ish, freaky - that should be played everywhere.
