Well worth listening to the downloadable file. Lovely.

Long overdue, we've finally got back to the task of editing up more tracks pulled from our four improvisations using sounds kindly provided by @anmoku, recorded early this year. This one was taken from the fourth jam in the series, recorded 28/01/21 and unusually for us, is relatively calm and peaceful.

Manja Ristic / Toni Dimitrov - Dystopian 001

1. Manja Ristic - Nothing Has To Happen, Fortress Europe
2. Toni Dimitrov - Against Civilization

🏴 'Dystopian 001' is split release between the sound artists Manja Ristić and Toni Dimitrov, and it is part of the new 'Dystopian series', showcasing a more abstract, darker, obscure and politically infused side of the sound of élan vital artist roster. Inspired by everyday life in the last several years living in realized dystopian visions and darkest predictions, the sound on this series will be the soundtrack for our daily dystopian reality. We are all aware that the future of our civilization is not bright, but that doesn't mean we are not living in an exciting epoch.

🏳️ Part one brings two longer pieces, presenting the dark side of the mystical long form experimentations by the Serbian violin and field recordings diva Manja Ristić and the latest field recordings experiments of the sound art naturalist Toni Dimitrov. Through this joint release the artists are trying to explore the potential for change of the society, resulting in a mature, expressive and complex album.

In isolation (sketch)

Visiting an abandoned farm in the outer woods of Luvia village on a rainy and windy day I come upon the windy howl from one really old and big aspen surrounded by younger firs. It was a little before the farmyard, so that the gusts could gather some strength from the more open yard behind. (There’s water dripping and some very small rain, but the sound that sounds like a rain shower in the end of most gusts is not rain, it’s the branches of the firs. I’m not sure if I’ve ever paid attention to this rather distinctive sound before. It was clearly heard against the jet like lower sound from the big aspen and the microphones were placed under one branch.)

I like this recording a lot but due to the loss of quality of the mp3 here the 24/48 flac is downloadable. Though be sure to listen with headphones.

Old Aspen and Firs - 21/11/2020 - Ruusnellinloukko Luvia

Ploughing aural fields in remote North.

Field recordist, bird watcher and a digitized former darkroom rat living in little Makholma village on the West Coast of Finland by the Baltic Sea - 61N 21E

These recordings are done in AB stereo with omnidirectional microphones. With this technique everything in the field will be equally meaningful, even the silence behind the microphones. That's why you should use headphones!

My recordings are merely like a process than individual tracks, and should be considered in the context of my blog-alike site:  www.baltic.fi

For better quality, the tracks are downloadable as 24 bit flac. For commercial use, please take contact.

You will find my videowork here: https://vimeo.com/holotna/videos
