Kavinsky & Lovefoxxx - Nightcall (Mieux Remix)

http://www.origamisound.com/album/odd-shapes-intense-appreciation ::

Free release of the month - May 2015
Original release date: February 14, 2014
Label: Dark Clover
--

Danish producer Asger Brunn Hansen’s second EP with Origami Sound's moody imprint, Dark Clover - Intense Appreciation - is a collection of free-flowing, radiant aural constructions filled with daytime reverie and piercing tenderness. Obviously the work of precise hands, these 6 electronic poems combine exciting textures, some soft echoes, some harpsichord & cocktail clinks, some Nordic Burial-tinged soundscapes, pieces of broken glass scattered on the ground and an everpresent magnetic fuzz that creates emotional timewarps.

The shape on the cover of the EP is not exactly odd, since it’s the kanji for ‘big, large’ seen from a few different perspectives, but Asger adds an extra connotation to it, telling us that this music is about observing the various daily phenomena around us - common sensations that surprise us through their shapeshifting nature, all of them tributary to the quiet contemplation of ordinary life.

A monotonous yet very lush search though 5 different instances of alone-time, all lived in one day, all to culminate with She Is Here, when tension loosens and the sweet relief that signals the end of loneliness finally kicks in. Regardless of your mood or how comfortably you’re seated, you’ll find this a good place to get lost in intense appreciation.

The second in a new, audio-only mix series.

"Air Texture celebrates the global community at large who create music out of category: some call it ambient, others experimental; off the dance floor but still in the electronic music family, it’s an important foil to the all night rave. Thank you BR for the opportunity to present this mix of new, favourite and rare material." - James Healy, Air Texture

"I once read that Tarantino stole from every movie he had ever seen. An autodidact composer, I follow a similar approach; each of my projects is an attempt at growing and learning from those who inspire me. This is a playlist with some of the pianistic influences for Portraits and previous projects Angles, Cassiopeia, Ballades and The Seasons. Welcome to my world of nostalgia".

Julia Gjertsen - Contemplative Classical Guest Mix

Olec Mün curates this beautiful new Contemplative Mix for us with music from Terry Riley, Laura Masotto, Marta Cascades Alimbau, Cesar Lerner and much more. (full track list below).

About the mix:
"This was the first time I created a playlist, and it was a beautiful experience, very similar to that of composing. Suddenly I had all the music of the world to choose from and come to only one hour of music. I selected composers that inspire me and bring me joy and introspection. Legendary musicians such as Terry Riley and Dino Saluzzi, and close teachers and friends such as Cesar Lerner and Laura Masotto. Music from Argentina, where I was born and raised, music with African and Indian background, places where I learned a different way of inhabiting music, and music from Spain which is my home today. My intention is to share my musical universe with everyone out there who wishes to listen. Behind each piece, there is a composer with a vast treasure to explore."

About The Mix:
"This mix contains a collection of pieces by artists from all over the world, from my hometown Australia to Mongolia to Iceland. I wanted to acknowledge pioneers like Sigur Ros and Nils Frahm in the ambient/modern classical world that have influenced me in the past as well as emerging acts like Alistair Sung and BPMoore that inspire me today. As a composer for film/TV/advertising, I also wanted to share artists I've discovered through movies and TV such as Nicholas Britell, Colin Stetson, Roomful of Teeth. Hearing Roomful of Teeth live at St Giles Church (Barbican) in 2018 was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. I even discovered the track by Vessel through the movie trailer for the Korean film, The Handmaiden. Thanks for inviting me to create this mix."
