DISCARNATE - Odd World (Free Download)

'"Everything Must Change" creates a menacing atmosphere from violin plucks, synth stabs, and a heavy hip-hop drum break. You don't need the story or the visual to feel the tension in it' – Pitchfork

'In a perfect world, Erased Tapes would be the new Sub Pop, a pioneer becoming a prescriber, unavoidable and historic. 'Everything Must Change' is a prefiguration of a perfect world, where modern classic from Erased Tapes would be the norm. A really seducing fantasy…' – La Blogotheque

PRESS RELEASE:

Icelandic composer Ólafur Arnalds set to release his first Hollywood film score.

Ólafur Arnalds’ original motion picture soundtrack for Sam Levinson’s feature film debut ‘Another Happy Day’, starring Ellen Barkin and Demi Moore, will see a worldwide release via UK modern classical label Erased Tapes Records on February 27, 2012.

IN HIS OWN WORDS: 

‘In mid-December 2010 I was on a holiday in China when I received an email from Sam Levinson about the film. We got on the phone at like 4 in the morning Beijing time and ended up talking all through the night, instantly connecting. He told me that they had been listening to my music while making the film, so the film was already very influenced by my music. However, it was not until Ellen Barkin – the beautiful force that she is – had pestered the producers for a week, calling them every day about how I am the right one for this film, that they finally gave in. The only catch was that it had to be done two weeks later, in the first week of January. So I ended up scoring nonstop all throughout Christmas, making my mother mad in the process.’ - Ólafur Arnalds

CONTEXT:

Born in the suburban Icelandic town of Mosfellsbær, a few kilometres outside of Reykjavík, the 24-year old composer has always enjoyed pushing boundaries with both his studio work and his live-shows. Through relentless touring and determination this young artist has steadily gained recognition worldwide and continues his mission to lure an indie-generation of pop and rock fans into an emotive world of beguiling electronic chamber music and delicate classical arrangements.

'The indie kid who knows the score’ – Guardian’s Observer

'An artist who can exert power with the lightest of touches’ – BBC Music


TRACK LISTING:  

1. The Land Of Nod  2. Through The Screen  3. Before The Calm  4. Lynn's Theme  5. Alice Enters  6. The Wait  7. A Family Stroll  8. Poland  9. Out To Sea  10. Autumn Day  11. Everything Must Change

Ólafur Arnalds and Janus Rasmussen's collaborative project Kiasmos continues to spread Icelandic techno with new Thrown EP featuring remixes by FaltyDL and 65daysofstatic.

After having revealed the title track Thrown via XLR8R in April, Kiasmos announce the release of their Thrown EP featuring brand new track Wrecked and two guest remixes by FaltyDL – one of New York's finest electronic producers – and UK's industrial post rock pioneers 65daysofstatic in the form of a12"/DL on Erased Tapes.

A1: THROWN
Ólafur explains: ‘Thrown is the first track of the "New Kiasmos", so to speak. Actually, Thrown is kind of a remix of a new Ólafur Arnalds track that hasn't even been released yet.’ ‘It has become the track that we use as a reference for all our newer stuff’, adds Janus.

A2: THROWN (FALTYDL REMIX)
‘Remixing used to be a very special thing. Not so much anymore. And when you're done, it will end up as a free download and most likely not on vinyl. It's bullshit. So when I get the opportunity to make an actual record, an object that will last longer then any of us, I jump on it. I have pleasures in my life. Doing this remix was one of them’, says Drew Lustman aka FaltyDL.

B1: WRECKED
Janus: ‘I don't really know what we were thinking when we started working on Wrecked.’ ‘Wrecked is our experiment with a new Doepfer synth. The song is severely out of tune’, adds Ólafur.

B2: WRECKED (65DAYSOFSTATIC REMIX)
‘It was quite a challenging remix to do, because it's such a minimal, understated track. The usual 65 approach of pulling out key refrains and messing with them didn't work because the bass is such a unique, dark sound. Likewise, I was reluctant to add too much new material because each attempt at that quickly veered into writing what sounded like a new song. Too many remixes these days are done to provide quick and easy bonus tracks for artists to giveaway, which is a shame, because when done properly, I think a remix is a great way to see a track you're familiar with as a listener in a new way’, explains Paul Wolinski of 65daysofstatic.

Janus: ‘I'm really excited about the remixes. They are both very different from each other and give the songs a new life. It's always great fun to hear someone make the tracks their own.’


ABOUT:

Kiasmos is the brainchild of Icelandic modern classical composer Ólafur Arnalds and Bloodgroup mastermind Janus Rasmussen from the Faroe Islands. Based in Reykjavík, Arnalds used to work as a sound engineer – often for Rasmussen's main project Bloodgroup – where the two musicians discovered their common love for minimal, experimental techno music. They eventually became best friends, and Janus now often accompanies Ólafur's solo shows with his electronics. ‘I am really enthusiastic about this project. Finally, I can make music that people can dance to. Something refreshing for the weekends’, explains Arnalds in an interview with the German electronic music magazine Beat. The project is a good way for both artists to ‘get out of the house’ so to speak and do different music to what they normally do. Having released their 65/Milo split 12" with label mate Rival Consoles in 2009, this year sees the duo return with the hotly tipped Thrown EP and a string of European club shows. 

'A rich production of deep, subdued techno...sure to stick in your head long after the track is through' – XLR8R

'Linear electronic music that propels you to pastel horizons...a dreamy new track to ease you through the day. A gentle groove and washes of sonic colour underpin a deceptively simple melody that buries itself inside your head' – Electronic Beats

'Thrilling stuff, primed for the more discerning floors' – Bleep

'Extremely elegant and addictive, sharp and hypnotic' ★★★★ – The Milk Factory

PRE-ORDER LTD. EDITION 7"/DL HERE: http://erasedtapes.com/store/index/ERATP043

Following on from Ólafur Arnalds’ critically acclaimed dance score 'Dyad 1909' (2009) for the internationally renowned choreographer Wayne McGregor, now comes 'Two Songs For Dance' – a limited edition 7" vinyl that captures two exciting tracks from two contemporary dance projects.

The first 'Endalaus II' was created for 'Endalaus' by Norwegian choreographer Alan Lucien Øyen, commissioned and performed by the Iceland Dance Company. Fans will recognise the track as one of the highlights from Ólafur's recent live shows, creating an emotional punch against the classical strings.

'For Teda', the second song is for London-based company Neon Dance and part of choreographer Adrienne Hart's on-going project 'Archived'it'. It brings forward a new concept in online interaction by allowing anyone to create their own version of ‘Dance on Steps’, a dance film featuring dance and mime student Teda de Moor from 1934.

'Two Songs For Dance' will be released as a 1000 copies ltd. edition 7" vinyl and high quality download on August 13th via Erased Tapes, and can be pre-ordered from the official store here: http://erasedtapes.com/store/index/ERATP043

Co-founder of PLEXUS
Owner of Extortion Sounds Records

Bookings: bookings@plexustechno.com

Discarnate is a DJ, producer, and techno activist who is the co-founder and resident DJ of PLEXUS, the most prominent Industrial Techno event series in Australia.

Deeply influenced by a background in Hardcore and Metal, Discarnate’s sound embodies an uncompromising aesthetic of violence and momentum. Aggressive, chaotic, and blistering percussive rhythms crash together while harsh synth lines scream overhead and an ominous ambience pervades the space in between. Discarnate’s mixes are hard and fast, bombarding dance floors with an arsenal of oppressive, gritty, and sinister Industrial Techno weapons, which dynamically coalesce to produce a vision of Rave that is equal parts fear-inducing and exhilarating.

Discarnate has cemented themselves as an Industrial Techno staple, not only through music work and activism in nurturing rising local talents in Australia’s revitalized underground scene, but also by having supported and played alongside many international Techno heavyweights such as PERC, Rebekah, I Hate Models, WNDRLST, Ansome, Alien Rain, Mickey Nox, VENDEX, Køzløv to name just a few.

With releases on labels such as Insane Industry, Das Kollective, Subrosa Records, PUREHATE, Interzeak, Regression Records, Genesi Records and on their own imprint Extortion Sounds Records, they further build upon the unshakeable power and ruthlessness of their sound. Recently just joining the Octane Agency based out of Naarm, Discarnate has their sights set on ravaging the dance floors of the post-pandemic international stage.
