The Soulcast 014 with Lost Desert

I pay tribute to the producer duo of Andrei Lemeshko & Dave Pad, better known as Volen Sentir, hailing from the vibrant city of Moscow, Russia. 

My discovery of their music was a serendipitous one, stumbling upon their track "Vdol Po Rechenke" in 2017, which immediately caught my attention with its fresh and uniquely different sound.

Since then, I've been an avid follower of their work, eagerly awaiting each new release and even starting a fan group on Facebook in 2019. Though I have since passed on the group to other dedicated fans, Volen Sentir remains one of my all-time favorite producers. Their rolling basslines act as a signature sound, immediately recognizable as one of their tracks or remixes.

For this mix, I've decided to focus on their more recent releases, rather than revisiting the tried and true favorites that have been heard by many. The mix includes a variety of collaborations and remixes, showcasing the duo's versatility and range as producers.

I hope you enjoy!

Volen Sentir

If ever there was an artist who doesn’t need an introduction, it has to be the man known to music lovers and the world simply as El Maestro. We're excited to present our Midaas Special Guest, Hernan Cattaneo.

Anjei(@poisonpro/ @volen-sentir) was born on 14 December 1984 in Volgodonsk, Russia. From early childhood he had a passion for music, his father having been a DJ for a short time. While Andrew grew up, he felt more and more love for different kinds of music. His first great experience was when he heard the music of the famous UK band - Prodigy. Andrew became a big fan of the group, then later Chemical Brothers, Crystal Method, and others.

"It's just incredible" – Mary Anne Hobbs, BBC 6 Music
“Strangely upbeat nocturnes" – The Wire

‘Spells’ merges programmed piano pieces with live instruments, combining the controllable technical world and the often unpredictable aspects of live improvisation. In some ways it continues where his underground debut ‘Gravity’ left off, though a lot of weight is lifted, making room for a lighter and more energetic listen. Friend and fellow Erased Tapes artist Nils Frahm mixed and mastered both albums. Ben is not a master pianist like his dear friend, but his sound collages are so meticulously designed that after hearing the result an impressed Nils declared: “from now on, if anyone asks – this is a real piano”. 

His intricate, humanised programming – enhanced by drummer Achim Färber, cellist Anton Peisakhov and harpist Lara Somogyi, and a considerate selection of echoes, delays and compressors – has been used to create a hybrid sound that intends to deceive, question and challenge existing listening habits. Utilising the contrast between reduction and decoration, ‘Spells’ can be seen as a quest to find out how much or how little composition is required to constitute a song. Why the ear can and should be deceived about the authenticity of instruments. What significance these instruments have within this process, and why the personal perception of balance and sound exclude ultimate truths. 

Linking the two albums are the four movements of ‘Nocturne’, an ever-developing conversation that on occasion flirts with the grandeur of compressed rock drums. The first single, ‘Golden Times 1’, received a world premiere by BBC 6 Music’s Mary Anne Hobbs, proclaiming it as "incredible." An alternative version of ‘Sleepers Beat Theme’ – composed for the soundtrack to a short film about the Trans-Siberian Express – opened Jon Hopkins’ Late Night Tales album from 2015, who noted “I thought it was such a calming and sensitive piece that sounded to me like the beginning of something...the warmth and depth of the sound entrances me every time”. 

Though ‘Spells’ and ‘Gravity’ are his first albums recorded under his own name, as acclaimed electronic producer HECQ he’s released nine albums since 2003, exploring everything from ambient to breakcore. He has simultaneously established himself as a trusted composer and sound designer, working for a wide array of clients including Amnesty International and Marvel Comics; composing for feature films, games, art installations and convention opening titles.

After embracing this demanding line of work, in 2010 Ben felt the need to explore his roots and early education, which inspired these albums under his own name. Born in 1981 as the third child of opera singer Deirdre Boysen and actor Claus Boysen, his classical music training on piano and guitar began when he was seven years old; the works of Bruckner, Wagner and Bach laid an important foundation. Rediscovering this music shared with his parents – united with the sounds of Autechre, Cristian Vogel and Jiri.Ceiver to Pink Floyd and Godspeed You! Black Emperor – brought back an understanding of why he wanted to write music in the first place.

“Finding my views understood, reflected and welcomed by Erased Tapes was an encouraging experience, crowned by the offer to release ‘Spells’ and re-issue ‘Gravity’ with them. Through many caring conversations with Robert I felt that there’s no better home for the existing ideas and no better cradle for new ones.”  – Ben Lukas Boysen

In Hour 2 we hand over to Berlin-based composer, producer and sound designer, Ben Lukas Boysen who released his album 'Spell' in June, mixed and mastered by friend and fellow Erased Tapes artist Nils Frahm. Music featured includes Pink Floyd, Kurt Stenzel, Demdike Stare, Hans Otte, Nina Simone and Ryoji Ikeda, and he had this to say about his mix;

"Some all time influential songs and hidden gems that contrast and complement each other. I love these songs for their simplicity and ample, devotional focus on composition and sound. There is ravishing beauty in the absence of decoration."
