Innsyter / 2Morph - 7" Sampler (Snippets)

Echoes of time sees the return of XVARR, this time to Good Morning Tapes' vinyl imprint, with extended versions of two workings from GMT13 (Serpent Power). Using sounds from early (circa 1992) experiments with metal, Past Masters captures a feeling of youthful anger and perhaps purity (or naivety). Reference to past masters is used to highlight the need to juxtapose present iterations of Self with the vitality of previously discarded versions. Also appearing on Serpent Power (GMT13) in an edited form and composed in 2018, the title track Echoes of Time was created using the Buchla Music Easel. The intended mood is one of serenity and perhaps even hope, with a view to create the sonic means by which one may transcend the trappings of linear time.

These tracks are joined by two other workings: She Healed Him in Her Sleep (originally planned for CD release in 2009), was composed after an extended trip to India, which left a profound impression on XVARR’s later creative pursuits. It explores the restorative dimension of love and the mystical role of sleep. And finally, Terminal Manoeuvre layers an improvised wistful melody over an ambient drone, designed to instil a sense of nostalgia and longing for respite from this terrestrial bondage.

With artwork from Egypte Erotique, the release is limited to 250 copies.
Distribution by Boomkat.

GMV02 XVARR - Echoes of Time 12" (Snippets)

The premiere Good Morning compilation selects six entries from the extended kin, three extracted from previous cassette releases and three from the vault. Engaging the listener in a varied but constant visioning experience, GMT's fourth vinyl offering is a peace pilgrimage poised to spill some of its magical life source into receptive ears. 

Tapes, South London-grown wizard Jackson Bailey, opens with the “Silence Please” invocation - an electronic tanpura drone swept by mysterious winds and inviting mellow tabla percussion and a pastoral, uplifting melody. To follow, Eddie Ruscha’s cowboy-in-the-clouds alias Only Thingz pairs gliding synths with circling chimes around a dream of a saxophone, called “All Eyes Open”. Innsyter, Brazil-born and Berlin-based Fernando Seixlack, eclipses his divine Magnolia Shade tape with a distorted downtempo oasis and label anthem, “Morning Blend”.

Eszaid - Collapsing Market’s Louis Vial - scatters sparse and mysterious dnb frames on the top of the B side with “The Most Sacred Syllable”. Anthony Naples reprises a shimmering, sunrise dub-house slice from his beloved and eternal Take Me With You album. And to polish it off, fellow NY-er Kiki Kudo chases away any melancholy with “Haladub”, a zippy applause of palpitating melody and insistent sample spells. 

Tracklisting :

A1 Tapes – ‘Silence Please’
A2 Only Thingz – ‘All Eyes Open’
A3 Innsyter – ‘Morning Blend’

B1 Eszaid – ‘The Most Sacred Syllable’
B2 Anthony Naples – ‘Goodness’ (Extended Version)
B3 Kiki Kudo – ‘Hala Dub’

Coming very soon!

Some words from @iankjudd

"Leave No Trace"... a mantra borrowed from the more purist and hardcore camping ethicists. The general idea behind it being that you must minimize all environmental impact whenever you engage with the natural world as a means of responsibility. 
Around the time of this mix I was fascinated by Lee Lozano’s Dropout Piece and Seth Price’s How To Disappear In America — wondering what would it feel like to voluntarily drop out completely, to really leave no trace? Especially, what would our beloved planet look like? 
Musically, what I wanted to illustrate with this mix were two sides of an untouched and unpopulated planet. The eternal, chaotic hum of the natural world, the glow of an empty city left on overnight....Honk if you don't exist."

'Leave No Trace' is available for pre-order now via the GMT Online Store.

GMT29 Ian Kim Judd - Leave No Trace (Snippets)

Schleswig-Holstein is a thin land bridge between the mighty hull of the North German lowlands and the long pointed head of the Jutland peninsula, with the gentle Baltic Sea on one side, and the rough North Sea on the other. Numerous lakes, deciduous forests and wide corridors have shaped this region since its formation during the last ice age. The varied landscape, covered with fertile clay and littered with countless large and small granite blocks, is the legacy of the glaciers.

Fascinated by the cultural and geographical history of his homeland, Phil Struck recorded sonic impressions after hikes, wanderings, daydreams, historical readings and childhood memories. Schleswig-Holstein Aufnahmen is the distillation of these diaristic recordings, made between 2017 and 2019, using a sampler, synthesizer, and worn flea market records. Much like the cyclical musings of W.G. Sebald, or Cluster’s pastoral electronic miniatures, these works are intrinsically tied to the landscape of which they were born. The wobble and crackle of the samples is evocative of the craggy scenery of the lowlands, and also describes the patinated atmosphere of memory, found in the work of Vladislav Delay, Pole, Caretaker, Philip Jeck, Ken Jacobs, and Bill Morrison. The painting adorning the album cover was done by Struck’s great grandfather who was also seduced by this meandering windswept land.

Limited edition of 100 LPs with risograph printed artwork.

A1 Horizonte (Intro) (2:12)

Grim Lusk for Dublab

Special x-mas treat from Mai Nestor! She's a swell photographer. When she wants to relax, she makes prints in the dark room or looks at designer clothes and furniture on ebay. She's a one in a million dj/selector, vocalist of Facit and host of radio shows 'Is This Desire?' and 'JalouCity'. One dream is to become a dancehall queen, one day she will problably become a nurse. She still gets lost in movies and will always be a horse girl. But it's not all honey and nostalgia you get, obsession and uncertainty are creeping in. An intense collage with some schizophrenia and a b-movie killer lurking around the corner. Slice me nice! « I wanted to create a nostalgic mix that reflects on the agony of surrendering yourself to love - as if you would be cut wide open with your guts thrown out in the snow and the ecstasy of diving into a pit of the complete unknown » https://soundcloud.com/scoutklas
