Variations w/ KMRU - 12th July 2021

Since 2003,  HTRK have built an incredible sonic universe, through their multiple studio albums, and work with luminaries Rowland S Howard and Mika Vainio. They appear busier than ever, as they work on another full length of sacred mood music. Tonight, Jonnine and Nigel bring together a textured little escape, at moments filled with bliss, and at others with some unease. We've been trying to get them on the FPR almost since its inception, and are rapt that it has finally happened. 

Despite the sudden cancellation, this broadcast is still technically in advance of their live show in Tāmaki Makaurau.

Organic details. For this episode I like to welcome Oisatsana.

Spherical densities smudged to oblivion, The right words to describe Oisatsana's show. The Madrid based producer released a highly recommended EP on Secuencias Temporales where tries to earmark the balance of shapeshifting vibrations and more melting ambiences. His use of detailed blends and dematerialized atmospheres keep turning back in his music. 

I'm very pleased that he participated and will be the one to guide us through his musical fascinations

This hybrid mix formed part of a recent research project exploring plant language and speculative sonic fictions :)

About the mix:

Plants have inhabited Earth for more than four-hundred-and-fifty million years, while humans have called this planet home for little more than seven million. Plants, with their collectively sustaining outlook, drawn from a wealth of ancestral knowledge - stored in winding, subterranean mycorrhizal networks - travel through time, but not in the linear sense: they are at once past, present and (thanks to their efficient, predictive capabilities) future. They are a reminder of, and a steady companion to, Earth’s long lifecycle. While their methods of communication may not be as visibly and sonically obvious as those of our own and our animal companions, plants have a fascinatingly plural language system - a complex, decentralised, multi-player network that Bio-17 attempts to sonify.

Bio-17, a name owing its form to Samuel Delany’s 1966 sci-fi novel, Babel-17 - a novel concerning interplanetary translation - is a collaborative, interspecies linguistic study. Through a spectrum of original and gathered, human and plant-made sounds - including arboreal field recordings, vocal samples, and processed biorhythmic data, all interwoven with tracks by other artists - I have explored the ways in which vegetal language systems might be decoded into music - using the medium's spatio-sensory capacities, and widely interpretable nature, to reflect a multiplicity of voices communicating within an interconnected whole.

Tracklist:

Bio-17 - A Distant Stir
Szarnyas Szerval - I’m all alone here

Music For Whales - William Basinski, some little extracts mixed

New Feathers
Text arranged by Lou Drago (@lou_drago)

In conversation with Wanda Gaimes, ZD Harris, Mmakgosi Kgabi, 
Pedro Marum, Paul Mernagh, heather purcell and Camilla V. Barratt-Due

The intimacy of friendship, Derrida writes, lies in the sensation of recognising oneself in the eyes of another. But what chance do we have of truly seeing another in a world increasingly reduced to pixels, (binarised) swiping, and blocking? 
In a moment where societies are supremely polarised and fake-news permeates oft undetectable, it begs to question what has precipitated this shift. One speculation could begin with the way society is atomised into distinct family units and how increasingly, connecting is considered something done via social media. Hyper-connectivity and infinite information access give the impression of being able to know anything and anyone at once, and caught-up in the fast-pace of neoliberalism (the brainwashing endures the pandemic) we can suffer from the pressure to know more than is humanly possible as we skim-read headings in the same breath as friends’ posts.  

Capitalism both assumes intimacy to occur primarily between romantic partnerships and promotes the idea of success being attributed to a lone individual. Isolated and in competition with one another, capitalism thrives on the myth of the individual, attempting to negate that we are all entangled with the ideas and affects of others. In a society where friendship (like everything else) is co-opted by capitalism to be transactional, shallow, and disposable, subverting these conventions to create intimacy as well as acknowledging ones interconnectedness can be pivotal. “If capitalism works by dismembering transformative relationships” carla bergman and Nick Montgomery ask in Joyful Militancy, “can friendship be revalued as a radical, transformative form of kinship?” 

In the work for Spaces of Faux Intimacies, Drago troubles these capitalist assumptions by diving into intimate conversations with several of their close friends and comrades, exploring intimacy not only as the subject, but as a process by inviting discomfort, challenging social anxiety, and through broaching difficult topics to explore vulnerability. These conversations are later transcribed carefully keeping the voice of each speaker in tact, and fragments are woven together to create a dialogue.  Through the anonymity of the format and the intimacy provoked by the process, Drago’s confidants share their impressions of what it means to exist under digital-capitalism.
