Lost In Transition in Left Bank w/ qwqwqwqwa (09/03/24)

Snarefell

‘Rejecting Fragility’ - is a recorder of emotions and experiences collected during a year of immigration to Tbilisi, a move that was initiated as a reactive decision to the unconformity towards the start of the full-scale war in Ukraine. It is about the loss of ambition and acceptance of responsibility, as well as the rejection of habitual beliefs and acceptance of fragility.

Delving into new surroundings, the mixtape acts as a postcard that envisions the technogenic bustle of Tbilisi. Similar to ‘Fashion Music for Scammers’, the release takes shape of a diary entry and attempts to record the constantly fluctuating moment of emotional fragility, where the atmosphere within the magical and serene corners of the city’s surroundings switches up rapidly with its concrete coldness, and the deep wormhole that is its nightlife. Hence the DIY, almost field-like approach to the recording of the material featured on the album. Most of the track were produced on an iPad, in which qwa created unique, autonomous ecosystems.

All proceeds from the digital release will be forwarded to hospitallers.ukraine_paramedic & lifeline.ge

qwqwqwqwa - Dynamics

... We pulled out our phones to take photos of all of it. As we aimed our shot, from the sky emerged these not supposed to say things approaching fast and smooth at a sharp diagonal with four whirling whirring pads like the feet of frogs and as I went to tap the screen I saw emit a bright white light precision pointed at me 

& I was aboard it. 

& Suddenly Everything Turned Sea Foam

it's the calm before the explosion. Energy loading. Universe trembling.

For Postcard (FMOA Audio Postcards series)
by Kazuya Ishigami

release from: 
https://tbwb.bandcamp.com/album/for-postcard-fmoa-audio-postcards-series

The FMOA Audio Postcards series continues, with a new entry from one of my long-standing friends and collaborators. I have known Kazuya since my time in Osaka, which was essential to helping me understand the full possibilities of sound as a communicative medium. Though certainly no stranger to the region’s storied “noise” underground, Kazuya has waded into much broader and deeper waters - his growing body of work showcases a kind of Buddhist reverence for all sound phenomena as being mutually dependent, and as such we have results such as the great contribution for the postcard project.

In this compelling morphological study, sections of location recording, conversation and birdsong flow without resistance into dense clouds of computerized and electronic phenomena. While bearing some similarities to the “classics” of sonic flaneur-ism (see e.g. Luc Ferrari), this has a focused attitude unique to its creator’s experiences.

From his official bio:

“Kazuya Ishigami is a composer, sound designer, sound performer and sound engineer in the field of Electroacoustic/Acousmatic/Post-Acousmatic/Ambient/Noise, etc. He received his B.A. in Music Engineering from Osaka University of Arts and his M.A. in Urban Informatics from Osaka City University. He began playing with the tape recorder and making cut-up and collage works in early childhood.

From 1990 to 1994, he studied musique concrete and electronic music at Osaka University of Arts Music Department Music Engineering course. Since 1992 he has created under the name of DARUIN. He began using computers for composition and improvisation in 1994 with the programming language Max/MSP and others.

His pieces have been performed at DR (Deutschland Radio/Germany),WDR (Westdeutscher Rundfunk/Germany), CCMC (Japan), JSEM (Japan), FUTURA (France), MUSLAB (Mexico), SR (Radio Saarbruecken/Germany), HR (Hessischer Rundfunk/Germany), ISCM (Stuttgart/Germany), Spark (USA), NICOGRAPH (Japan), SILENCE (Italy), VII International FKL-Symposium (Italy), ICMC (2015_USA/TEXAS), Music From Japan 2020 (USA/NY) among others. He has an independent label, NEUS-318 and OMODARU, and has released more than 100 works.”

NOTE: the limited edition postcard is FREE with purchase of the digital album, with free shipping to anywhere in the globe.

From ANM047 "Climat Avenir", by Simon Chioini — CD Digipack

Climat avenir ; portrait of unexploited lands, of deserted spaces, of a corrosive and venomous flora. Irked protagonists, roaming livestock, their acidic cries.
Beauty of the blue-green lakes, of the scintillating stars under clouds of bronze. The earth's foundational movement.
Crashing ice. Solar winds.
This work cycle is an imagined world voided of any human presence, or succeeding it. It is a prismatic composition: a vibrant landscape, a topographic map, an exploded geode.
Macro. Micro.

Music composition and mastering by Simon Chioini.
