Jacob David - Intet Forbi

AMVI is a new project by Saint-Petersburg-based composer Maxim Ananyev. With his former project Tree Bosier he passed across a dozen of genres, and never looked back willing to create a better version of something that was already made. As a result, Afisha magazine tried to find a specific niche for his music: “This is the case when “dreamy electronica” is not a cliché or just a mere name but kind of an attempt to define the actual genre”. 

Paysage is special for its acoustic instruments sound. It is so close in panorama as if someone plays it right here in front of you. All percussive aspects are clearly hearable, there are no reverberations, distortions or layers of effects. “This is electroacoustic music. I wanted to create as realistic and honest sound as possible”, explains artist. 

“I’m inspired by many things, but mostly visual ones”. It explains album’s name: just like a picture in a gallery – with many layers and details – Paysage invites to an attentive observation and diving into its sound landscape."

Ego on the Waves

So it turns out I only went and wrote and recorded an album on my recent visit to California (I was there for much more important non-musical reasons).
The place and the company are very inspiring. 

The album, entitled The Village, will be released on double CD and download in December. Until then, you'll have to make do with this part of this track and the ridiculous photograph I actually took of the actual sunset. We don't get sunsets quite like that in Manchester!

In celebration of their latest signing, Erased Tapes are set to re-issue Ben Lukas Boysen’s compelling debut album ‘Gravity’, alongside new album ‘Spells’ on 10th June 2016.

‘Gravity’ was the first album Ben recorded under his own name, merging programmed piano pieces with live instruments, combining the controllable technical world and the often unpredictable aspects of live improvisation.

From ‘Only In The Dark’ to the two movements of ‘Nocturne’, it’s a serious, solemn listen. And yet, with pieces like ‘To The Hills’ and ‘Eos’, ‘Gravity’ is an exploration of heights, cliffs and vertigoes. With piano lines and choir-like drones, this record suits its title in all its meanings, as the magnetic force takes us deeper towards the core. Marking a new beginning, this debut reveals a touching, and more melodic side to Ben’s body of work, which he previously only hinted at as HECQ.

Friend and fellow Erased Tapes artist Nils Frahm mixed and mastered the album. Ben is not a master pianist like his dear friend, but his sound collages are so meticulously designed that after hearing the result an impressed Nils declared: “from now on, if anyone asks – this is a real piano”.

His intricate, humanised programming – enhanced by drummer Achim
Färber, additional synthesisers played by Nils, and a considerate selection of echoes, delays and compressors – has been used to create a hybrid sound that intends to deceive, question and challenge existing listening habits. Utilising the contrast between reduction and decoration, ‘Gravity’ as well as its successor ‘Spells’ can be seen as a quest to find out how much or how little composition is required to constitute a song. Why the ear can and should be deceived about the authenticity of instruments. What significance these instruments have within this process, and why the personal perception of balance and sound exclude ultimate truths. Linking the two albums are the four movements of ‘Nocturne’, an ever-developing conversation that on occasion flirts with the grandeur of compressed rock drums.

As HECQ Ben has released nine albums since 2003, exploring everything from ambient to breakcore. He has simultaneously established himself as a trusted composer and sound designer, working for a wide array of clients including Amnesty International and Marvel Comics; composing for feature films, games, art installations and convention opening titles.

After embracing this demanding line of work, in 2010 Ben felt the need to explore his roots and early education, which inspired these albums under his own name. Born in 1981 as the third child of opera singer Deirdre Boysen and actor Claus Boysen, his classical music training on piano and guitar began when he was seven years old; the works of Bruckner, Wagner and Bach laid an important foundation. Rediscovering this music shared with his parents – united with the sounds of Autechre, Cristian Vogel and
Jiri.Ceiver to Pink Floyd and Godspeed You! Black Emperor – brought back an understanding of why he wanted to write music in the first place.

“Gravity strips away the cloaked mysteries of electronic music production to expose the tender side of this musician’s mind." — Headphone Commute

Benjamin Dauer - Missing You [disquiet0055-twoscrews]

My inspiration for this remix comes from an episode of Fringe where special equipment was used to listen to audio from the past - ghosts of sounds that once existed in time. I imagined Nils rehearsing certain passages of his songs before finally committing them to a recording. In this exploration, I wanted to give the impression that you are hearing these ghosts of notes past, fleeting in an out, tumbling over each other as they come into focus.

Our assignment was to take two of the source tracks — “Do” and “Re” — and create a new track from them, in the process creating a work for two pianos. In the end, I kept the key of "Do" for the final piece.

Thank you Nils for opening up your beautiful music to be reworked.

This remix, along with many others, is also available via the official Reworked website: http://reworked.nilsfrahm.com/rework/DO/do-benjamin-dauer
