So impressive and extreme. So opposite to and because of that in balance with rhythmless ambient, my favorite style. Ooooww

Brilliant and well worked, Maurizio. Kind regards, Stella

nice use of dynamics... unique merging of abstract sections of sound. nice work CSS

„pan dora“ is based on Bernhard Weiss’ music for the butoh-performance „PanD’orA - Shades of Hope“ by DaniMayu and her Company MayuKan. Sounds and fragments of the original soundtrack are condensed into an independent track. „pan dora“ consists exclusively of partially heavily processed recordings of acoustic instruments (gongs, kamalen goni, windchimes, cymbals and tibetan singing bowls) and field recordings.

The performance was to have taken place in Vienna in early November 2020, but had to be cancelled and postponed indefinitely due to a lockdown.

About the piece „PanD’orA - Shades of Hope“:

After 20 years of being a butoh performer and choreographer, DaniMayu revived her Company MayuKan in order to create her new piece „PanD'orA - Shades of Hope“. In her new production Dani Mayu is honouring her body of work by incorporating quotes from over 30 pieces of hers.

Starting from Pandora's Box, the members of the Company show different aspects of hope in the tension between the general positive connotation of today and in the sense of Friedrich Nietzsche, who in „Human, All too Human“ describes hope as the worst of all evils.

Joan Jordi Oliver is a musician from Spain based in between Zürich (CH) and The Hague (NL). Trained as a classical saxophonist and as an electroacoustic composer, his artistic practice has explored many different facets of music making, constantly oscillating in between interpretation of classical and modern literature, composition, free improvisation, experimental music, multimedia projects and collaborations in all possible directions.
The COVID pandemic supposed an important shift in his artistic vision, and he progressively abandons the more gestural and performative approach to embrace a more introspective relationship with the sonic experience. He started discovering ambient and drone music and getting familiar with the work of artists like Tim Hecker, that have influenced him deeply. In 2021 he releases his first album of experimental electronic ambient “Enlaire”, starting a journey that continues to expand into the permanent exploration of new sonic realms.

“What was a crucial sound experience in your life?”
Memory allows us to construct our own interpretation from our experiences and create a narrative that connects isolated moments in our life to configure a journey that, somehow, might make sense. I remember many first times with albums that have influenced me - I remember the environment, the feeling, maybe a specific location (I usually went on walks around my neighborhood in Zürich as discover-new-music sessions). I gather beautiful memories of how a work made me feel, and how it created this invisible connection in between the artist and myself. I believe that this sort of connection is what I want to achieve in my own music. To connect with strangers, to create a special moment for them.
It’s difficult to pick a specific moment, but because of its relevance, there is one that comes to mind. A few years ago the Youtube algorithm brought a really unexpected musical selection when I was cleaning up the studio after a session of work. I would usually play it soft in the background and focus on rolling the cables well, but in that moment the sounds paralyzed me. “Andata”, the opening track of Ryuichi Sakamoto’s album Async, was playing. That was an encounter with a music my intuition was dreaming of. “This is it. This is the music I wanted to make without knowing it. It’s here, it’s real. This Sakamoto guy is my new hero”. From this point on, I started exploring artists related to this aesthetic and began a really beautiful journey, finding music that I emotionally connected with. That moment in the studio was a really significant one and, in this imaginary map of my memory, I marked it as a crucial shifting point in my artistic vision.

In October 2015 we released Aïsha Devi's Of Matter and Spirit LP. The album encapsulated the spiritual metamorphosis and transcendental journeys of this otherworldly figure. The Swiss/Nepalese-Tibetan producer mentions Sufism and Tibetan monks as her major influences. Aïsha Devi published the LP under her birth name, adding further integrity and candor to this already intimate piece. Houndstooth now returns with the Of Matter and Spirit remixes EP to remind us about the sonic wonders hidden in Aïsha Devi's debut album. 

On this soundcloud stream Irish duo and Houndstooth favs @lakker open the cast of remixers with their take on Anatomy of Light adding a heavy dose of syncopated percussion. No Pain In Pop/New Ninja Tune signing @throwingshade transforms Kim & the Wheel of Life – Aïsha Devi's comment about contemporary idols being channels of commerciality rather than spirituality – into a session of brief introspection. 

The remix EP also boasts two reworks of Aïsha's hit single Mazdâ. Berlin's @mindbodyfitness interprets the track as a whirlpool of trance. The cherry on top is the spooky Killing Sound (@blackest-ever-black) version of Mazdâ with grime MC Rider Shafique and Bogues. 

The Aïsha Devi remixes EP exhibits the ethereal beauty within Of Matter and Spirit and should give more club airplay to this singular artist who perceives music as just another form of meditation.

... De.Chronos means both exploration of Time, both deconstruction of Time. Into the pieces are perceived dynamics interrupted , regular pulses, unstable speeds, static timbres. So, here's the Timelines Deconstruction and Recomposition, the Disintegration of metronomic regularity, brought back to primary patterns.
The system is often disturbed or unhooked, or left free to express almost imperfect biological life. The phrasing is always traceable to harmonic conceptions, in the meaning of "Melodies of timbres" (A.Schoenberg).
The sound-colors are designed to "Expressionist" mode, therefore often violent, bright, lacerated. The Granular Synthesis allows the creation of intense, primordial, ancestral atmospheres. Granules pulverize the time pulse. Chronos is vaporized. Then it finds himself.
... De.Chronos significa sia esplorazione del Tempo, sia de-costruzione del Tempo. Nei brani si percepiscono dinamicità interrotte, pulsazioni regolari, velocità precarie, staticità timbriche. Quindi ecco la Decostruzione e Ricomposizione delle linee temporali, la Disgregazione della regolarità metronomica, poi ricondotta a schemi primari.
Il sistema risulta spesso disturbato, svincolato, oppure lasciato libero di esprimere vita quasi biologica imperfetta. Il fraseggio è sempre riconducibile a concezioni armoniche, nel significato di “Armonie di timbri” (A.Schoenberg).
Il colori dei suoni sono concepiti in modo “Espressionistico”, spesso violenti, accesi, lacerati. La Syntesi Granulare permette la creazione di atmosfere intense, primordiali, ancestrali. I Granuli polverizzano le pulsazioni, e Chronos si vaporizza. Poi ritrova se stesso.
