A NEW MYCOLOGY: LETHAL ALGAE BLOOMS (PASTORAL RETURN)

Pre-order: https://displayseries.bandcamp.com/album/cynics-curtain

The ninth edition of the DISPLAYSOLO series sees Lorica (@ubinas) tackling the dark ambience of an uncertain future. Entitled “Cynics Curtain”, the nearly 47 minute long aural diptych explores freeing the personally placed and often subconsciously adopted constraints of the artistic process itself. Melody is rattled and structure is reexamined throughout the two tracks, all creating a bleak but insightful meditation of long hymnal ambient processions broken apart by hard-hitting rhythmic forms.

I Love That Joke

The need to inform has transformed seamlessly into a desire to contribute. Platonics 01 reflects our long-term alertness to our surroundings, it is an impulse to reassess our priorities. Some things cannot be left for tomorrow.

Gin&Platonic is the common sense of the long-abandoned extroverts, the newfound introverts, and of those constantly in-between. It's comfortable but challenging at times. A matter of intuition. It's something sentimental about being cynical. It is a state of double-edged irony.

Racine - Quelque Chose Tombe
Cat. Nr: DN016
Format: LP / DL
Release Date: 21 February 2020

Hidden in plain sight, grinning through worry, living in insecurity – modern society has returned to a day-by-day race for survival. To be vulnerable is the new normal; afraid, a bare minimum. Something was bound to emerge from the quiet throngs of the new precariat, and Racine is such a voice, setting to music those modern lives defined by uncertainty.

Quelque Chose Tombe (‘Something Falls’) is a set of compositions that confronts demons both inner and outer head-on. Created during a period of necessary unemployment somewhere in Montreal – caring for one’s health can take precedence over work – the music is both a grotesque dance of the goblins and the gentle opiatic breath of the protectors. It’s a harrowing reflection of the prevalent vampiric hypochondria forcing a generation into fatigue.

The sounds crawling out of Racine speak with their own internal logic. Snippets of fractured tunes creak through perturbed post-digital soundscapes, blurred and fragmented along the way into haunting amorphous instrumentals. The two-part title track is multi-part sonic maze where raven-like pitch bent notes gather, a broken rave theme punctures its way through bass fog, and silence clefts the music in two, ushering in a coda of heartbroken ambience. As the album’s suite progresses, Racine shepherds mutant melodic themes in and out of earshot, like clear thoughts bringing temporary order to a state of emotional panic and withdrawal. A host of other sounds too – voices and birdsong, cybernetically deformed – populate Racine’s scarred productions.

Emerging from Quelque Chose Tombe’s constant darkness however, is a latent sense of hope. Racine is turning modern vulnerability into a strength, creating a singular aesthetic to reflect and confront an uncomfortable present.

Out Now: https://noumenalloom.bandcamp.com/album/safari-explorer-kent-install

Kent Install is the debut record from Safari Explorer, a solo project by Dilian, musician/producer based in Brooklyn, NY. Safari Explorer is an exploration / exercise in creating pop melodies that pull influence from Cumbia, he often heard growing up in Mexico City, and from Dilian’s worldwide travel.

The album doesn’t function as a concept album, instead focusing more on found meanings in novel combinations and a pop approach. Recorded mostly on 4 tracks and with minimal gear, the album is an emotional tour of Dilian’s interior world + a world where access is immediate and global in the data age.
