First insights from the album Shoto, released on March 29th.

Shoto: https://minui.bandcamp.com/album/shoto

Between the uncomfortable and the pleasant, minui returns to activity with fresh pine air, exploring the unknown life's language, keeping its focus on simplicity.

"Shoto" - It literally means, "pine-waves," that is, the motion that pine trees make when the wind passes through them. As the wind goes through the pines, their waves fill the pianist and speak through him, giving nature a tonal voice - the waves of the wind. Open your ears to these persistent resonances as the notes slowly die out - the contrast - one shimmers while the other has a darker, almost nocturnal feeling. It really is the feeling of just being on the edge of silence, but never quite - never final.

In Japanese poetry, haiga is haiku traditionally accompanied by an ink brush drawing. Inspired and reinterpreted by this, the new album merges with a kind of interactive haiga.
Each page generates a pause.

Humble In Heart

Ushering in the first Ambientologist single, Rinnovare offers a duo of stunning pieces that expand with emotion and grace. Washing over with heavenly textures, yet grounded in the soul of the strings and piano, Ingrávido presents a duality of tales, one humble and the other uplifting.

More than just a pairing of tracks, these artefacts of rebirth are profoundly important to Rinnovare, and it is Ambientologist's honour and privilege to showcase them.

Rinnovare - Familiar Illustration

Zoltan Fecso is a composer based in Naarm (Melbourne), Australia. With previous releases on Hush Hush Records, Sonder House, The Slow Music Movement and Shimmering Moods, Whitelabrecs is thrilled to present Zoltan’s most restrained work to date on ‘Daylight in an Empty Room.’

Zoltan’s pointillist compositions combine single notes of varying lengths to form ever-changing patterns. A composition technique he’s been exploring since 2018, Pointillism borrows its name from the post-impressionist painting technique which uses individually coloured dots to form an image. Zoltan’s works are performed on a modified guitar, on which he captures fragments of notes, creating ever-shifting tonal permutations.

‘Daylight in an Empty Room’ is an album of solo guitar improvisations, in which Zoltan has aimed to create a more open, spacious sound than in previous records. Zoltan works closely with his partner and painter Claire Lefebvre, who created the artwork for this album. ‘Daylight in an Empty Room’ suggests finding new detail in simplicity.
