Melantónia Show x Fango Radio (11.06.2020) curated by @Hanna_Maria_Melantonia.

For this months episode for Fango Radio, Melantónia is pleased to present Toshiki Shimada from the Berlin based collective, Dry Agency.
He chooses to play tracks which differ in style but he has consistent fashion in detail and the core - psychedelic and hypnotic sounds which are cultivated in the fertile club culture in Japan.
His play focuses on creating tension and releasing energy through creating layers.
In March of this year began his series of listening session at "Motif Wein" in Berlin Neukölln, dedicated to ambient music up to spacy jazz.
Thank you for your nicely wide sounding Electronica selection and this excellent mix.

Melantónia x Fango Radio - Toshiki Shimada

"Growth" was born from the inspiration of both nature and my synths.

https://mickchillage.bandcamp.com/album/growth

On a recent walk around my local park and across its rather impressive yet brutal looking suspension footbridge which spans across the river below I noticed the growth of lichen on its fabricated structure, the bridge is only a few years old and I was taken by the bright yellow fungi contrasting against the wine coloured painted metal supports and the black slip resistant walk way, I felt this would make a nice photograph so I took a picture with my phone. 

The image kinda lingered in my brain longer than I expected and I was fascinated how the lichen was taking over the bridge, almost as if it was trying to blend in the alien structure to its natural surroundings.

I began to see a connection between nature's ability to grow in the most unexpected environments and how growth can happen to us in the unexpected situations, particularly poignant in the current pandemic we all find ourselves in, for many this has been a challenging time for sure but also its been a time of growth as we find new ways to cope and perhaps discover that maybe we should be doing things different in our lives. 

The track itself, came about purely through experimenting with the Moog Grandmother initially, a random generative patch I created was the catalyst, by dialling various control knobs it created very varied and unexpected results, I also captured some drones that evolved from this patch and then built more synth parts from the Prophet Rev2, & the Supernova II, eventually the Moog elements became more like background effects and as the track comes to its final quarter I played some improvised keys using the Native Instruments Maverick Piano which I felt complimented some of haunting synth sounds.

The title "Growth" seemed to fit as the track grew from an unusual sonic foundation just like the lichen had grown on the metal of the very industrial and brutal looking footbridge at my park.

A veteran electronic pioneer, with previous releases on labels such as Traum, Cocoon, and heralding international acclaim from the likes of Sven Vath, Adam Kroll (@adam-kroll ) returns with ‘Planet Plankton’, an abstract ambient and textural collection, reminiscent of the experimental sound of Pole or Deadbeat at times. Borrowing from his early years of minimal techno productions as well as dub explorations from his time in Kingston, Jamaica, this beatless EP is sure to delight music heads worldwide.

In Adam's words: “Planet Plankton started with a documentary on Arte TV about hydroponic underwater sound recording. Those guys had this special technology to record the sounds that fish make. They speak to each other! These sounds are exactly the same sounds that you can find in nearly every one of my songs."

Il est scories ; bris d’air, gravats poreux - ambiance
Île escortée des mers - flaque rose et salée –
Cratère ou lac - allante éruption de conscience;
Il explore, escalade, érode, laisse aller

Les orbes vaporeux des arcanes ; fumeroles
À percoler des mers - fleurs écloses, étoilées –
Boucles dorées - débris des coraux en corolle;
Il expose, environne, épouse, laisse hâler

Les courants, c’est l’escale attendue : les panaches
Et les vagues en fumées se manègent un couffin;
Marée basse, algues rousses - oursins glacés, ganache
Ou sorbet - voie lactée, lave brume en coussin.
(Poem by Arthur Bonny, co-founder of the literary review "L’Allume-Feu")

2021 élan vital recordings 

Sebby Kowal is a  newcomer to élan vital recordings, but he is not unknown to the ambient scene as 'Bright Spaces' is his fourth album. Similarly like his previous albums, 'Bright Spaces' firmly sits into the atmospheric ambient/drone realm, driving you calmly and peacefully towards the vast horizons with glacial movements of the sound spectrum. The whole atmosphere and aesthetic aims towards reaching inner peace of the soul and it succeeds to actually tranquil and soothe the farthest corners and vast spaces of your soul. Hazy but still melodic, the album is mixing fragments of static, hums, decayed melodies and shady sounds into unique meditative amalgamation.  Or said with the artists own words: My goal with the album 'Bright Spaces' is to bring a sense of peaceful calmness to the listeners, the sense that is especially relevant during these stressful times. 

Sebby Kowal is a Polish ambient producer with previously three albums released on the labels Whitelabrecs, Shimmering Moods Records and Lagerstatte, and his track 'Lost In Tokyo' was placed on 'tʌntrə XIl' compilation released on Neotantra imprint. One of Sebby's proudest achievements was his Warm Night Fall EP released on Dewtone Recordings that came out in 2017 and it was sold with over 800 copies worldwide.

“Most of the sounds on this album
come from electric and bowed guitar,
with the exception of a few field recordings
and string samples here and there.
I've found myself spending a lot of time
building pieces from minimal guitar loops
and melodies during this pandemic,
it's been a very soothing process for me
during an otherwise stressful time.”

-- Bradley Sean Alexander Deschamps
