GUESTS 155 – santebela

“current and always” from @perila
https://perilazone.bandcamp.com/album/current-and-always
raw mood loops to process in honest inner plunge
nothing is eva the same

what we can change
can we change now
why waiting
she asked this before
no answer means answer
get it your way
but stay connected
every day as a piece of noise
which soothes
settle unrest
ruin pile
closer to together
now or never
now or never
we can

perila – subtle dynamics

GUESTS 157 – Petteril

distortions, inversions of all this chamber made music to replace nightlong shakings between white or red horrors, fermented words; an imperfection being committed, beneath helpless intoxication, searching for a safe side of distance, libera, dreadful mourning. a spark of hope to all, bearing in mind a massive silence to be stopped by cheering from all around. 

when russia invaded ukraine it altered everything. writing music in these troubled days, during these historical events has become more sublimated than it has ever been; habitual leisure has been replaced by volunteering, the territorial defense of hometown, or the front line in the army. despite everything, music remains a significant part of our lives and continues to be the voice of history, communication, time, and memory. 

all revenues go to the ukrainian charities and defense forces.

For 𝑊ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑒, Berlin-based Alie illustrates a selection from the Ashtavakra Gita with a sprawling excursion of narration-infused ambient and pointed club music selections. Alie’s recorded output and sound practice is a multifocal one: a body of generously considerate DJ mixes, appearances on Angelo Harmsworth’s Lime Lodge label, multiple remixes throughout the enmossed catalog, and the new recording project Awa Awa. 𝑊ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑒 is a subtextual primer to the recorded output Alie has amassed to date. Alie’s attention to momentum on 𝑊ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑒 is prescient as the selections expand over the generous seventy-two minutes of listening experience over sides A and B. 𝑊ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑒 provides joyous catharsis through well-earned reflection.

Alie functions as a channel, space and expression of sounds, frequencies and vibrations. These may materialize in form of tracks, sound pieces or co-creations, ready to be transmitted to all - vibrating on a resonant frequency. When playing records, Alie’s focus creates an oscillating flow between ambient, experimental and fast forward sounds.

Alie - Whole [Side A Excerpt] (ENMX-17)

For the past five years, Glyn Maier has developed a curatorial agenda for his enmossed label with an emphasis on recyclable and sustainable materials while living and recording within secluded natural environments. His level of dedicated praxis is illustrated with his latest 𝐸𝑛𝑣𝑖𝑟𝑜𝑛𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑀𝑖𝑥, concluding a dense output of 19 long-form listening cassettes. Capping the ENMX series run, 𝐸𝑛𝑣𝑖𝑟𝑜𝑛𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑀𝑖𝑥 is a deep distillation of the sonic agenda within the series and the label more broadly. Maier is keenly attentive to pace and spatial context, allowing for time to stretch, interweaving lush field recordings and emotive new age passages. All audio in this mix, just shy of the two hour mark, is culled from cassette recordings of classic 1970-80s field recording series (𝐸𝑛𝑣𝑖𝑟𝑜𝑛𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠, 𝑆𝑜𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑢𝑑𝑒𝑠, 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑂𝑐𝑒𝑎𝑛'𝑠 𝑅𝑒𝑙𝑎𝑥𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑆𝑢𝑟𝑓, etc) with their core utility being to invoke relaxation. Maier’s intentional recycling of materiality is an homage to respect for the environment, and in turn he is rewarded with bountiful environmental sonics to reshape. As the formal attributes of his selection process are in lockstep congruence with his lifestyle and production output, so does this chapter of the label's output come full circle.

Glyn Maier is a sound artist and field recordist living in Pisgah Forest, North Carolina. Non-city outdoor spaces are essential to Maier’s practice. With a formal education in physics and music composition, Maier’s preoccupations with natural objects, landscapes, and their social histories guide his recordings, which are then integrated into ambient electronic works utilizing organic rhythms and complex timbres. Maier’s abstract synthesis work is deeply informed by sound design, but his larger focus is on the agency of both machine and environment.

Trax Versions

"The aquatic is a concentric point of reflection within the latest release for Enmossed, procured as the split pairing of compositions by Finnish artists Kati Roover and J Koho. Both artists cull medial studies, collaborative processes, field recording, and geographically informed identitarian positionings in the audio works cultivated for cassette. Kati Roover’s aphotic meditations span across one side of the cassette, chiefly mirroring reflections on her Izhorian heritage, hydrofeminism thinking, and whale song captures. For the other side of the cassette, J Koho takes frameworks from Sound Studies paradigms to apply within his processed field recording efforts. Here, both artists service the latest edition of Enmossed’s ENMS catalog with mediated field recordings and sculpted isolatory liquidity formalism. Somewhere inside, the listener can be positioned enveloped in the dewy, aqueous sonorous realm of these two Finnish composers."

- Nick Klein

Kati Roover is a Helsinki-based, multidisciplinary artist. Her practice spans across the mediums of moving image, sound, photography, text and installations, draws upon and addresses a broad range of topics that are connected - from human, place and elemental interactions, mythopoetics, animisms and hydrofeminism, to the natural sciences and ecology.

J. Koho works extensively with sound and acts in many different roles in the field of sound art. Koho’s listening based artistic practice combines the methods, techniques and theories of acoustic, concrete, electronic, electroacoustic music and improvisation and simultaneously looks for meaningful and more sustainable ways to keep on working in this often technology-oriented and resource-intensive field.

J. Koho - Sijainteja [Excerpt] (ENMS-05)

"𝘪𝘯 𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 is an affirmation of communion. An invitation to contemplate that we are threaded by the same material traces, imprinting us —first through our senses, then through the distillation of experience into memory and its gifts: perspective, continuity, belonging. An analog photograph contains traces of the light that touched who or what was pictured. A body of water is the link between anything that was ever in it, no matter whether it leaves or stays. Words, tarot cards, and any other signs are portals to all the previous and future times they emerge. The walls of a room in a gallery or a house are coated with what happened inside it. A harp string disrupts the elements with the same vibration that travels and interacts with our bones. 𝘪𝘯 𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 is an invocation of the tangible as encounter, of the shared object as a site that refracts punctual experience into a new kind of collective knowledge. A portrait and a prayer that suture the wound between body and instrument, between voice and name."

in essence

in essence [Side B Excerpt] (ENXEVP04)

Dark ambient soundscapes for your pleasure. Relax, chillout and enjoy.

DARK AMBIENT - BLIND JUSTICE

“Not nostalgia, but memory.

Do the warped boleros on water-damaged tape sound the same in Saigon as they do in Havana? Is it the trait of memory or the Romance of dancing cheek to cheek that is the real undercurrent of boleros, or is it the sleeping warmth of memory being invented by the synesthesia of a true listener?

I believe these are some of the questions raised and cryptically answered by doris dana’s 𝒏𝒐𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒈𝒊𝒂 mixtape. Mónica Mesa, the Colombian sound artist who now works out of North Carolina, conjures up imagery so vibrant and familiar that to say it is “cinematic” would not do justice to the narrative the music produces. Through field recordings, indistinct chatter, and the bolero music itself, Mesa invents a new form of the genre, much like the permutation of boleros in Vietnam, which are slower in tempo.

Mesa recalls the sounds of their parents and grandparents and how she associates the ever-present musical style throughout their life. In this hour-long mixtape, we share in her imperfections to recall memory as we slog through the haze of what is remembered, what we are fed in culture as memory, and how we interact with others to clarify recollection. Where nostalgia seeks to implant memory in your mind and heart for the purpose of selling you a past that glosses over imperfection, true memory is foggy, left-handed, and rubbed dark with eraser marks of corrections made and made again.

A depiction of one’s own recollection is often brightened and polished for consumption, but this mixtape truly shows the cracks in our foundations. Not unlike a Frank O’Hara poem, in which trying to remember which day or month it is enters the lines of the poetry, or how in Calvino’s 𝑰𝒏𝒗𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑪𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒆𝒔, Marco Polo begins recalling billboards and discarded refrigerators in his tale of the Orient to Kublai Khan, showing that the narrator is faulty in further presenting memories of another’s memories. This complexity draws you in, and you are rewarded with a sonic envisioning that many have attempted but few have achieved so deftly as doris dana.”

doris dana is the sound project of Colombian-born artist Mónica Mesa, exploring the emotional tonalities of liminal spaces through field recordings, slow-moving drones, whispered vocals, and sparse, reverb-soaked electro-acoustic instruments. Named after Gabriela Mistral’s editor and confidante, doris dana gestures toward the study of quiet forms of intimacy and memory in sound.

Their latest album, 𝒓𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔 (Somewhere Press, 2024), offers a meditative, immersive listening experience. Mesa is also one half of the duo bad lsd trips, whose self-titled album and most recent release, 𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒇𝒆𝒔𝒕 (enmossed, 2025), expand on similarly experimental sonic territories.

In addition, she hosts No era sólida on Radio TNP—an hour-long mix series delving into the most introspective edges of sound, featuring experimental, cinematic, and free-form compositions that invite deep emotional engagement.

lado b [Preview Clip] (ENMX-xe)

"How does one listen to the ocean or look into a coming fog with any predictability or sense of measure? Is it foolish to quantify and attempt to time what happens in nature and how we observe it? Carl Ritger believes it futile.

𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑴𝒆𝒂𝒔𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒔 title refers to the R Murray Schafer essay on soundscapes and our inability to tune and anticipate what will happen next, sonically and visually, in nature. Similarly, Ritger’s two long-form pieces develop on anticipation that can change at little notice. When I personally heard the material first performed live at the Great Circles event in partnership with enmossed in 2021, the music changed moment to moment from natural atmosphere to chittering electronics within minutes and seconds. Dizzying as it was (perhaps because of the oppressive heat), it made for a synesthesia of muted landscapes, hidden behind a smoke of gothic motifs. Ritger himself said that the sound hearkens to writers like Mary Shelley and the half-darkness her language imbues.

It has taken 4 years to realize this album, with ongoing conversations between myself, Carl, and Glyn Maier. As is often the case, you try to time things to perfection. If we have learned anything from the measures of nature and the process of this album, timing is never on your side."
