Dit is een architectuur voor transformatie. Dertien sonische landschappen, ontworpen om je te begeleiden door de poort van de eclipse naar een nieuw hoofdstuk.

'Here I Am' is een reis in 13 delen. Van de delicate noten van piano en viool tot de diepe, meditatieve lagen van ambient soundscapes. Elke track is zorgvuldig verweven met specifieke binaural beats en solfeggio frequenties, niet als effect, maar als fundament.

Dit album is gemaakt als een ritueel. Een soundtrack om bewust los te laten, diep te voelen en helder te kiezen wie je vanaf nu wilt zijn. Luister het van begin tot eind als een complete sessie, of kies de track die resoneert met wat je op dit moment nodig hebt.

De titel is de bestemming van elke track: een dieper besef van het hier en nu. 
*Here I Am*. 
Volledig aanwezig. Klaar voor wat komt.

Jockkie - Here I Am - 08. Here I Am

available on the special edition CD release of 'Long Walks and Oceansides.'

“Shadows surrounding, this lucid veil that will not conceal.”

‘Taking the Veil’ is the debut solo album on Kitchen. Label by Berlin-based musician Hior Chronik. Originally from Athens, the new album is a follow-up to his previous work on the label as the duo Pill-Oh in ‘Vanishing Mirror’. The established foundation are intact on ‘Taking the Veil’: the bitterly romantic strings and gentle electronics whisper melting over plaintive piano scores. Hior Chronik has a penchant of producing subtly immense and cinematic compositions which are remarkably chilling in its beauty.

The latest release follows Hior Chronik’s distinctive compositional path with the pairing of a collaborator on each track. This time the instrumental colors are most intimate, honed to evocative perfection with each collaboration bringing its own nuances to a permeable set of motives. Through the contemplative moments, what give it life is the varied scoring which goes from solo piano to string orchestra, opening up a space that shimmers with stirring melancholy. Featuring classically aligned contemporaries such as Field Rotation (Denovali Records), Sophie Hutchings (Preservation), Lüüp (Experimedia) and Japanese composers Yasushi Yoshida (noble), Yoshinori Takezawa (Schole Records) among many others. The biggest change in this new album is the addition of vocals by Amber Ortolano and Fabiola Sanchez (Familiar Trees) on four songs. Figured centrally in the soundtrack as recurring lyrical voicing, the Amber Ortolano and Hior Chronik pairing also produced a rearranged version of ‘Twice’ originally written by Swedish electronic band Little Dragon.

‘Taking the Veil’ is presented in a 16-page art book format, also featuring the New York based Amber Ortolano as a photographer. The subject in the visual narrative of ‘Taking the Veil’ is of young women imprisoned by their flow of thoughts and their dark imagination. The delicate beauty and ambiguous gestures of feminine protagonists serve as powerful metaphors of the veil as the title of the album reflects – They reveal and conceal all at once, reviving emotions conjured by a sense of mystery. The album underlines this atmosphere that probe the consciousness imbued with burnished hues of something half-remembered and half-dreamed. ‘Taking the Veil’ is the best company for late hours and memory searching in a world of mist and shadows.

‘The Exquisite Corpse’ is based on the surrealist game of the same name.

Recently, the wonderful pianist Garreth Broke sent me a lovely composition filled with strong melodies and cascading multi-tracked piano parts and asked if I would be interested in adding some textures. Of course I jumped at the opportunity. The result is a blending of mangled eurorack effects, layered synths, and his original piano themes.
