Living Room n°10 ~ Santebela

Dismantling the acoustic to feed the electronic, Editions Mego presents Telepath, the new album by Material Object. Born out of a single improvised recording session with a lone Violinist, Telepath is a startling album of future electronic music, resulting in an LP of unique and timeless tracks that reimagine a classic sound for an endless future.

Boldly departing from his previous canon of largely 'ambient' work, Material Object's Telepath renders itself out as something much stranger, something more spacious, more subtle and gradual. Moments of bouncing minimalism meet moirés of delayed pure tones phasing in and out of resolution, giving way to a series of strobing foreground gestures arranged and offset in disorienting landscapes which scatter themselves asymmetrically amongst crystal pools of reverb.

Revelling in the creative dismemberment of the original source material, Material Object slowly and patiently induces the violin to undergo every category of torsion, pressure and rupture. Its vivid acoustic qualities pass over and across the event horizon of the digital domain. Shattering then crystallising into points and coordinates, intersections, disjunctions, planes and reverberant figures. An uncanny geometry perceived only between the ears, at once dissolving and reconstructing itself.

Not to be missed here is the essential, but bonus only, add-on (available with all Bandcamp purchases) "Auxiliary Apparition", a hallucinatory expanse that traverses the same liminal geography as the LP proper but as some refracted, ghostly counterpoint. More nocturnal, overpowering phantasms looming out of a droning noise floor before fading away. A hypnotic and time-dilated recapitulation of what's gone before as if looking back from beyond a mirror. When it finally resolves in the closing moments and returns you home, you realise you haven't really moved at all.

Equally abstract, haunting and daring, Material Object’s Telepath is a singular work that abandons all notions of genre. Erupting with a tension of opposites that unfolds as a truly unique story, told in four dimensions and draped in deafening colour.

'Non Partial' is the latest release from YS. Music made during 2023, through the online exchange of files, finally realised in real life during the dead of winter in Berlin at Studio Asbestos. An epic mini-album condensed into 4 tracks exhibiting both bold and obfuscated plunderphonics. Looted accapellas invoke the likes of Lil B and DnB vocal legend Robert Manos. These are reimagined, crafted over sound collages and emotive synth work. Dramaturgy with an emphasise mostly on chordal composition. Fabricated soundscapes in the ‘real world’. Each sound work is also accompanied by a video. The result is unclassifiable audio/visual media works about nature & dissolution.

Planes flying in every directions
Up, Down,
Left, Right,
Forward, Backward
From Aéroport Charles de Gaulle to...
Rome?
Tokyo?
Bogota?
London?
Philadelphia?
Valencia?
Where are you going this summer?
An ambient mix to pack you bags with Caroline Shaw, Tojiko Noriko, Brian Eno &ampamp; Doopees fused with recordings of CDG airport...

Callisto Mix nº171

'Repetitions' adventures to imitate the 'stuck-in-your-head-melody' feeling through evolving modular jams in the usual, audibly hands-on AIWA manner. Tracks 'o_ato2_HT' and 'o_ato_1' focus on one progression, while 'H_ee_ji' breaks a hole inbetween them with a never-fulfilled lead sequence. Best listened while crossing dunes in the sunset on an All-terrain vehicle.
