exploring the mysteries of an abandoned alien sanctum

Found an old Morphagene sample reel with snippets by Varese, Roads and Stockhausen then performed cutting them up in real time via the Buchla Music Easel.

Places we have been - they guide us somehow. Sometimes even if we only have been dreaming of beeing there.

In the streets of Osaka there is a lot of melodic sounds in the air. From traffic lights, garbage collections, mobile traders selling ramen soup... 

In this track everything you hear is from field recordings made by @maguri - thank you Martin!

The soundscape composition: “Preemptive Listening Perspective, North Sea” is a pre-warning signal soundscape about the increasing numbers of windmills and their related activities on the North Sea as a solution for “sustainability by electrification”. It is meant to create more awareness, discussions, research and thinking about the (acoustic) ecological impacts on different levels, above and under-water, for (fisher)man, marine live, sea flora,  present day and future. Rethinking the possible positive and negative effects.  And what will be the including effects of climate changes, changing water temperatures of the North Sea, the grow and migration of new species, effects on oceans on a more global scale. What will sustain, grow, migrate and remain in the (sound) habitat of the North Sea?

You hear:  sounds and signals from the North Sea: the Belgium pre-alarm with Dutch Sirenes,  cats bell, and other (alarming) sounds, animal sounds: humpback whale, porpoise, seal, the musical vocalizations of their rhythmic way of communication, rumbling sounds of large windmills  in a gliding perspective.

“Preemptive Listening Perspective, North Sea” is inspired by the “Preemptive Listening film / project” of Aura Satz.

The composition will be part of the Listening Session: "Resonant Ecology" (30 - 10 -'25.) to explore communication beyond the human-across species, systems and technologies; a collaboration of Murmur-contemporary and the Swiss Society for Acoustic Ecology (EU member organisation of the World Forum of Acoustic Ecology). How do you think about the changing (acoustic) ecology of the North Sea ...?

Preemptive Listening Perspective, North Sea

Preemptive Listening Perspective, North Sea, 2025, Ricardo Huisman

The 60's were a good era for 'psychedelic' music - at least, this is what's said. Allow me some visual clanging and flip that 6 to a 9 and talk about the Seattle 90's, also effluent in the 'psychedelic':

"I’ve been listening to old Nirvana bootlegs. I can say my music is influenced by the smashing of instruments at the end of their gigs. Each one is a unique orchestration but within a structure until it exhausts itself. It’s not random or just noise. There is a timing and build of tension. It is even more dramatic to only hear it rather than to watch it.

Kurt Cobain used to make music by surfing the radio and piecing it together with no editing, like early musique concrete collages. He had an old cassette recorder where you have to push the record and play buttons together and then push pause. You can hear the clicks, the getting up to speed..."*

...the tape warbles, and the shitilly timed stops.
