all time exists at once we are as we experience things in our lives and see them begin and come to an end we see time as linear.

Everything At Once

The Way Love Emerges

04 - TINY MIND

Text:
[Verse]
I got my shoes on wrong but I don't care
The Seine is laughing
The Eiffel stares
Streetlights blink like they’re in a race
And I’m just a dot in this glowing space

[Chorus]
Take a walk in Paris
Lose the map
Let the city hold you in its lap
Every corner whispers
Every step sings
Paris is a bird with golden wings

(solo)

[Verse 2]
The cobblestones hum under my feet
A café spills secrets into the street
Chandeliers in windows
Dreams on display
Who needs the night when it feels like day

[Prechorus]
Chasing the stars that hang so low
Where they lead
I don’t need to know

[Chorus]
Take a walk in Paris
Lose the map
Let the city hold you in its lap
Every corner whispers
Every step sings
Paris is a bird with golden wings

(solo)

[Bridge]
A painter’s brush spills into the sky
The moon leans down just to say hi
I don’t need words
I don’t need time
Paris hums
And I’m in the rhyme

Walk in Paris

12k is happy to present the debut release on the label from Argentinian composer Federico Durand who has had a series of amazing releases on labels such as Spekk, Own, and Desire Path. Federico and 12k crossed paths on a tour of Japan together in 2014 where the personal friendships among the artists and the label are such a part of what 12k is about. Sharing music and ideas throughout the tour led to an invite to make an album.

It’s no accident that Federico’s music has a dusty air of nostalgia surrounding it. It has always been a very personal affair. Songs inspired family, local life and the world around him are woven by hand with a selection of very physical instruments. He works like a craftsman, piecing together fragments of sound from cassette recorders, small instruments and loopers and creates music that’s as softspoken as he is. No pretenses, no disguises, just the most honest and down-to-earth music that can be made. Broken melodies spinning from tape reels, the sounds of bells and small found objects being played with care... The music is as beautiful as it is introspective, like a small window of antique glass looking right into Federico’s soul.

In his own words:

“A través del espejo in Spanish means “Through the mirror”. I am fascinated with the experience of putting a mirror in front of another: as a miracle, the image turns in a loop that flows into infinity. Loops in the mirror get less clear with each repetition, the color becomes diffuse and greener. When these loops turn into a lullaby we can enter the other side of the mirror: a place of delight and insight.

I always make simple melodies as they are born free. In many pieces, I use cassette recorders as an instrument that play friendly with others such as piano, lyre, toys, bells or effects. I enjoy the possibilities of cutting tape and making loops, reversing, and even using many tape recorders at the same time making air recordings of the sound. The Roland Space Echo or 2880, which are loop-machines themselves, match perfectly with this way of working.

When I see an emboridery I enjoy both the front and back where a mysterious, invisible world suddenly appears. For this reason, I am grateful to the natural sounds made by the machines, the crackle of loops and other sounds that appear while working, as an unexpected gift.

A través del espejo is a dream of beauty, A love of handcrafted music.” 

- Federico Durand

Marta Mist..."Scavengers" edit...

"Cycle 2" taken from Matt Dunkley's debut album “Six Cycles"  released 11th March 2016.

iTunes: http://po.st/6CyclesiTunes
Rough Trade: http://po.st/6CyclesRT

"Six Cycles" is the much-anticipated debut from one of the world's leading orchestrators, arrangers and conductors.

Having worked on films such as 'Inception', 'The Dark Knight' and 'Black Swan', and with artists such as Patti Smith, Nick Cave, U2 and Kronos Quartet, as well as a successful composer for film and television, it was only a matter of time before Matt Dunkley released his own album.

Dunkley reveals, "the inspiration for the six pieces that comprise 'Six Cycles' all derive from disparate sources, whether it a piece of poetry, a painting or the emotion of personal loss. Initially they seemed to be unrelated, but as I listened to them as a whole, a sense of them belonging together slowly emerged, forming a true "cycle". I want the listener to discover their own world within my music, hence the willfully enigmatic titles."

Recorded with the renowned Babelsberg Film Orchestra, the result is a rich and nuanced cinematic soundscape, replete with stirring builds of Wagnerian grandeur.

Upped pitch on Teen Idle by Marina and the Diamonds to sound like Rose Lalonde from Homestuck. DISCLAIMER: I think we can all agree this is younger Rose, like when she was still 13-15. I don't know about older, but whatever floats your boat.
