Foshwave Popup 3: Submerged

Wyzard - Undercurrent (Bonus Track)

Where the Rake resides

low light

Having spent the past two years working on shorter projects including the EPs Answers at Dawn (Was Ist Das) and Sunspot Loops (Courier Sounds), Fresh Yorkshire Aires graphic scores project and a commission with aerial artists for Bristol's Feel It Festival, Katie English aka Isnaj Dui returns with full-length album Poiesis on Rural Colours.  Already being described by some from the electronica underground as lulling the listener into a subdued state only to be taken by the feeling that you’re about to be hit round the back of the head with a blunt object, Poiesis has lost none of Isnaj Dui’s unnerving calm but has taken on a more expressionistic edge as she (consciously or otherwise) gets her head around the general state of things and tries putting the world to rights. 

The CD comes packaged in a hand-printed sleeve.

This is Rural Colours 083
Released 30 October 2017

Dett

To All

Composer and drummer of Dawn of Midi, Qasim Naqvi, releases his debut album for Erased Tapes on May 3rd. 'Teenages' captures the sound of electronics living, breathing and mutating of their own accord – almost autonomously – with only subtle, sparing but perfectly-judged and masterful guidance.

This album is one singular synergy between Qasim and his machine within a broader milieu of sound, also explored by contemporaries Sarah Davachi, Alessandro Cortini, Caterina Barbieri and also the forefather, Morton Subotnick. At points tonal, textural and rhythmic, over six evolving and growing audio organisms, the album flourishes upwards in stages, from initial micro-sonics to something bigger, brighter and anthemic.

With 'Teenages', Naqvi summoned all the material on an analog modular synthesizer – a voltage-controlled sound generating system comprised of multiple modules. Naqvi built this synth over the course of two years and amassed a collection of works for this album. The album chronicles both Naqvi’s understanding of writing for this type of instrument and the growth of the instrument itself:

“I started with just a few modules. And naturally things had to be layered and pieced together but as the synthesiser and its components grew over time, I was able to create broader and more complex strokes in the moment. And by the time I got to ‘Teenages’, it was possible to create a robust, large-scale piece spontaneously. This is very much an experiential album for me because it was borne out of my direct experience of learning the instrument. And as the synthesiser grew over time with more components, it matured. At times I felt like it was even rebelling against my instructions or surprising me with what felt like its own choices. When everything was finished and I was thinking about track titles, this idea of artificial intelligence came into my head; a machine that reacts to your impulses and is capable of giving you something different from what you ask, and even defying you. It felt like different stages of growth and adolescence, and that lead to the album title, ‘Teenages’.”

Deeply rewarding on close listening, Naqvi has created an inspiring and synapse-stimulating new masterwork, within the analogue/modular cannon.

Seabuckthorn - And Bickers Into Colour

from 'Window In' [CD|LP|DIGITAL]
Denovali Records · den332
available on all formats at http://denovali.com/michaelvallera

Window In is Michael Vallera’s third full length offering on the Denovali label, following  All Perfect Days (2018) and Vivid Flu (2017).  

The four tracks that compose Window In are an exercise in density, movement, and space. Raw studio recordings of electric guitar were taken as the foundation, then heavily altered and manipulated through sampling, erasing the trace back to origin of the sound. The result is a series of vignettes that are unattached to a particular source but instead exist in an emotive and internal state.

Window In

Michael Vallera - Deep Sleeping Exit

Maps and Diagrams - Kalia

Signals is an absolutely beautiful new collaborative effort between the much beloved Finnish electronic artist Lau Nau, and the brilliant Swedish composer and pianist Matti Bye. These 8 gently melancholic and deeply sensitive tracks are a perfect antidote to the stressful times that we all find ourselves in. Let these soothing sounds from the light filled days and nights of the far north soften your cares during these all too dark days.
