Turned Away

The author of Viva 2020 (E6P2.4), Opus Vivaldi, has surprised us once more with his new album, ANTOLOGÍA SIGLO XXI. It is a short miscellanea (only 90 minutes FNORD) collection of the best tracks, rarities, and unreleased material from this obscure and mysterious artist. It includes digital covers of The Velvet Underground, Jimi Hendrix, Suicide, and John Coltrane.

<<The apocalypse is not something which is coming. The apocalypse has arrived in most parts of the planet and it's only because we live within a bubble of incredible privilege and social insulation that we still have the luxury of anticipating the apocalypse.>> (T. McKenna)

With classical music studies, he collects under his signature hundreds of references on national and international labels such as Nyapster, Emty6pack, San José Tapes, Pedicure Records, Not Working Tapes, Ingrown Records or AMDISCS, among many others. 

After nearly two decades of career, Erik Hurtado's extensive work constitutes an unattainable Corpus that is NOT limited to the strictly musical field but has explored and continues to explore various aesthetic areas and disciplines, such as collage, VideoArt or, more recently, AI experimentation. Hurtado has always operated under many different conceptual aliases, from Opus Vivaldi to Pseudo-Novalis, among others.

Since 2020, he has collaborated closely with the pataphysical collective Pata-No UNLTD (Texas) and their transmedia project "TOO COOL".

All tracks recorded in Costacabana (2015-2021) *except Hawaii Ventolin; Melilla (2007). 

Design: Pau Magrané + Iker Furtado + AI.

E6P6.5 Antología Siglo XXI, by Opus Vivaldi 🕊

MONSIEUR SOLEIL

Genosidra's upcoming release, named HAXAN TEK, is a daring exploration of tambora rhythms from Colombian, Venezuelan, and Dominican traditions. Seven tracks weave a tapestry of puya, Chandé, Venezuelan tambora, merengue, bambuco, and Son, distorted into a distinctive sound. It's a powerful invocation to carnival demons, a feast of darkness, and incendiary passions. The album stands as a sonic experience, utilizing digital tools to amplify the ferocity of folkloric beats.

The artist draws inspiration from diverse influences—exotic synthetic tones, tribal energy, and the rhythmic frenzy of footwork. HAXXAN TEK emerges as an exorcism of rhythm, preserving and enhancing the raw essence of Latinx music. The album's foundation lies in manipulated recordings of drums and surfaces, creating a primal, otherworldly sonic landscape.

As co-director of TVL REC and as a member of the new generation of Hiedrah Club de Baile artists, Quebrada has pioneered experimental music in Latin America, hosting events and festivals that bridge diverse artistic voices. HAXXAN TEK, a testament to Genosidra's innovative spirit, promises to ignite dance floors with its devilish beats.

Heith - The Liars Tell... 
Label: PAN
Cat.No.: PAN 143
Release Date: 10 May 2024
Purchase: pan.lnk.to/TheLiarsTell

Heith’s debut album X,wheel marked the beginning of a long journey, the start to a tortuous exploration of consciousness and spirit. The Liars Tell..., on the other hand, feels like a kind of respite, a moment of meditation and pause from the fatigue of dimension-hopping. As if the traveller dismounted their carriage and, standing puzzled on a crossroad, listened to the echoes of distant places. Occupying a liminal space and letting thousand of contradictory tales form the lyrics to one unfathomable song.

This EP’s emphasis on the singing voice is itself not casual, but the focal point of a research on language and words, from their uncanny worlding power to their ultimate failure to deliver universally accessible truths. The human voice is treated as the most fragile of instruments, a spectral presence aided into matter by technology. The tonally ambiguous beauty in Heith’s processed singing stands to imitate the immanent wisdom of sacral inspiration while simultaneously belonging to a sketchy trickster. A divine liar is whispering into the ears of the somnambulist, instigating dangerous temptations of knowledge.

The delicate shanty at the core of “<>e” conducts slowly from a shiny synth desert to a cascade of arpeggiated instruments to, finally, a contained eruption of percussion and noise, all while never losing its hypnotic sense of caution. INVERTED VERTIGO’s slow rising chords, prolonged whispers and lamenting flutes feel like a soul trembling to detach from a state of static plenitude, fevering to plunge into the abstract tumult of it conclusion. Similarly, the minimal, stretchy melody of “medicine boy/3cate” gives the vocals the space to alternatively fragment and multiply, only to then coalesce again into one choral force, ultimately giving space to a discharge of broken guitar strings. Closer “The Circus Lodge (Orchestroll Version)” is a mirrored reversion and an addendum to X, Wheel ’s “A Venus Flytrap In The Circus Lodge”, initially riding on the back of a reverb- drenched crescendo to a melancholic slow burn of electronic reeds.

This all makes The Liars Tell...a crucial point into Heith’s evolution, influenced by two years of increasingly ambitious live performances and by the relentless wanderings of an uncompromisingly creative mind.

Sun Ra famously claimed he was born on Saturn, and much of his personal and artistic outlook was imbued with a deep fascination with space, and space exploration. This two-hour selection features Sun Ra recordings directly related to that fascination.
