The record was made entirely with one monophonic analogue synthesizer (an Arturia Minibrute) and just a few raw field recordings, providing some natural background noise. Having been created during the various lockdowns, working with constraints seemed to me the most natural thing to explore. Considering also that since I bought the synthesizer I struggled to get out of it an "ambient" sound of some kind, my attempt was also to work with something problematic. Both things paralleled the limitations and troubles we experienced in real life. The raw sounds of the filtered oscillators, altered only by some pedal fx and sometimes live-looped through an ipad app, were subsequently equalized and layered.

Nicola Fornasari: arturia minibrute, field recordings, gauss field looper on ipad, pedal fx, processing.

Discount Heaven House Band is an elegy for friends long made and suddenly lost. These are low-lit, ember-glowing vignettes captured during the hours between late night and early morning in Tijuana, Mexico. Played by Alfonso Azcaiturrieta, Ian Collins, and Brandon Ángeles with an appearance by Peter Gray Hurley, the recordings were made in memory of Kiva Ivey, taking on new depth and complexity following the death of Ángeles. Grooving but doleful, extended yet broken, they are loose, ludic, and ever-unfolding. Thick basslines bend under the shuffle of a rhythm box, pangs of melodica cut through glittering synth aureoles. Emissions from a celestial lounge act, misty and hypnotic, to accompany a final ascension.

Kläppen

Strangelove’s latest release turns left somewhere near the edge of the Atlantic, with Electricidade Estética” documenting a vibrant window into the musical landscape of 1980’s counter-culture Portugal. Compiling early un-issued works, DWART’s organic Ash-Ra Balearics meld with spikey Iberian electronics, coalescing around the floating beauty of ‘Mate’, reissued for the first time on vinyl.

With emergent music technologies of the era enthusiastically adopted by Lisbon’s avante-garde, there was a collective desire by DWART and their contemporaries to push sonic boundaries;- Post new wave sounds melded with distinctive local sensibilities. Vítor Rua & Jorge Lima Barreto of the legendary Telectu (whom Antoñio currently tours with) were regular collaborators while composer and guitarist Nuno Rebelo and guitarist/singer Bernardo Devlin feature on several songs. 

Antoñio & Manuela Duarte’s search for an artistic language melded a continuing curiosity with aural and physical dualities: experimental pop integrated with performance art, mathematics sound-tracked on canvas, organic found sounds at ease alongside synthetic drum machines. The 9 songs found here document the early emergence of their own ‘Electricidade Estética’

Stunning little gem on non-commercial label with lots of interesting bits but this track here currently catering to our very mood. Record is truly rare

Mystery "Tribe Of The Blue Moon" - unknown exotic tribal banger on feminist label! -  👋

For the fifth entry in our Collector`s Series we enlist the skills of Japan-based musical connoisseurs, Ken Hidaka, Max Essa, and Dr. Rob. Their compilation Oto No Wa sets out to map the evolution of chilled Japanese sounds across 3 decades, collecting 14 tracks, produced by a wide range of artists. From ambient pioneers to dance-floor veterans, to a 9-piece reggae band, Little Tempo, percussionist Kazuya Kotani, and organic, psychedelic collective, Olololop.

Beginning in the late 1980s, the era when “environmental music” became prevalent, there`s Yoshio Ojima`s cool computer-generated Sealed. The compilation also includes later work by his contemporaries Takashi Kokubo, and Yoshiaki Ochi. Theirs are compositions designed for art galleries and museum installations. “BGM” built from emerging technology, and / or counterpoint tapped out expertly on sticks and stones. The 90s give us the seminal electronics of Susumu Yokota, and the solar-flare strut of Scha Dara Parr – Japan’s answer to The Beastie Boys. Here, remixed by the legendary Major Force. Moving into the 21st century we have the post-house productions of Flower Records. Kentaro Takizawa`s oceanic Gradual Life, and Little Big Bee`s colourful coral reef-diving Scuba. Fellow traveller, Kaoru Inoue`s “Kyushu kosmische”. Representing the next decade are Flower Records’ current rising stars, Coastlines, who calmly combine classic fusion, library music, and gentle nova bossa nova rhythms. Alongside them are the sun-baked electro-acoustics of Karel Arbus & Eiji Takamatsu, plus Chillax` previously unreleased epic analog / modular jam.

All of these selections are the result of some serious “digging” but more importantly they represent physical connections made during Ken’s 20-plus-year career in the “Biz”, Max` decade of DJing all over Japan. Music made by folks interviewed by Rob at the websites, Test Pressing and Ban Ban Ton Ton. Friendships forged at Lone Star – the trio’s long-running party, which takes place every month at Bar Bonobo in Harajuku.
