Philipp Otterbach - WARNING x HÖR (September 12th 2021)

For Scrying the Landscape VII, Elina Tapio and Hannah Pezzack find orgasmic pleasure in the concept of Ecosexuality, a term originated by sex worker advocates, performance artists and environmental activists, Annie Sprinkle and Elizabeth Stephens. Against colonial capitalism's violent subjugation of nature, Ecosexuals instead treat the Earth "as a lover." Encompassing marriage ceremonies with mountains, crafting sex toys out of organic matter and climaxing under waterfalls, they centre desire and fetishism in order to protect ecological systems. The horniest iteration of Scrying the Landscape yet includes 'Morning Star-Red Glare- Sequoia Bridge,’ from Elysia Crampton Chuquimia’s ORCORARA 2010, an album narrativized through a romantic entanglement with a sentient plume of smoke, dedicated both to the prison inmates fighting wildfires ravaging California and the indigenous practice of prescribed burns. With great thanks to @fourchambers, a creative pornography project by @vextape, for the soundtrack from the film ‘Human Botany’ and the audio tour of the 'Ecosexual Bathhouse' exhibition by art-collective Pony Express.

Scrying The Landscape w. Elina Tapio And Hannah Pezzack [17.03.2022]

Skylab - EP 1 - Lucid

We're honoured to release the debut EP from Hidden Rung - a new solo project by the wandering wizard, Matthew Linares @specklesound

Matthew's no stranger to Good Morning though, as a member of Pataphysical with whom we released their highly acclaimed album 'Hapticality' last year. 

People yearn to break the stasis of existence; "Happier" is a pensive mood board of attempts to go beyond. Melding dubby electronics, melodious incantation, plaintive calls, and inquiring dialogue, 'Hidden Rung' charts uncanny paths toward another self.

Craftfully Mastered by Krikor Kouchian, Hidden Rung's "Happier" is available to purchase digitally here: https://speckle.bandcamp.com/album/happier-e-p

Intertwining dance music genres and coming from an audio engineering background, Pyramid of Knowledge has sculpted his own sound identity for the past few years.

Releasing on labels such as Hard Beach Entertainment, Craigie Knowes, and Dream Ticket, P.o.K.’s records have become some of the most sought after by exigent selectors.

P.o.K. loves to create rich and textured atmospheres with precise drum grooves. Layer upon layer, organic compositions materialize into music that both stays fresh and original whilst maintaining an old-school vibe.

The Parisian born but Seoul based influences and approach to music allowed him to record tracks that take you on a trip, tickle your brain, and keep your body running simultaneously.

The Crooniverse (08/09/22) w/Marijana and Lucas Croon

So I've read an article about how the over media coverage of our lives can results in psychological pain and illness written by Diane Delaurens on the french magazine Usbek & Rica.

The article is based on the hypothesis that the values dictated by the digital era have a higher psychological impact, mainly because of the awareness of global issues as war, climate change & environmental crisis and that the way our societies are organised (our stands for western societies) may induce bigger psychological suffering.

The author first claim that, historically, the values in which the human being believed in had an immutable caracter, because it came from religion and myths. She takes the exemple of Ancient Greece or Australia's aboriginal people whose myths contained a lot of knowledge about nature, law and culture about their society.

Then she shows how these values have slowly evolved for the last two centuries because of the technological discoveries and the expanse of a democratic political system. Basically, the fact that our contemporary societies are in motion, its rules and values are evoluting and therefore are based on values decided by mankind.

I'm not discussing the philosophical approach on the article nor its postulates, but what I like about the article is one of its proposition at the end which suggests to heal ourselves by healing the world around us. To do so, she invites us to be inspired the aboriginal myths from all around the world, in which nature and behavioral aspects of our relationship with it take a great place.

I like to think about it by including witchcraft, druidry or some folkflore, in which surrounding nature was a key element of such practices and beliefs.

So I got inspired by all this and provided a soundtrack meant to stimulate how each of you listener feel about esoterism, ritualism and how it can affect the relationship we have with the biosphere.

Another month, another beautiful guest mix, this time care of an artist we've been obsessing over for the past few months, r beny (@rbeny). His ambient works are created in large part on his modular synthesis setup, which you can experience in a deeply personal way by heading over to his Youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5hhwOVY0lxIn4ELd5ZP1Bw). We asked Austin a few questions about this mix, and the relationship between modular synthesis and the natural world:
 
---------- 

Where and when did you put this mix together? 
 
This mix was mostly put together during a couple of sleepless nights at home. Those nights where you just can’t shut off your brain. Not even anything in particular heavily weighing on your mind, just rudimentary thoughts. Those nights where you feel like you are counting each breath and heartbeat. This mix is sort of a reflection of that. Soft tones and hushed drones as the night passes you by. Filmic textures enveloping everything as your mind starts to wander. Memories start to weave in and out as you start to drift out. Are you still in the confines of your bed or are you out driving in the mountains? The mix gets a little more emotional as it proceeds. Maybe some of those memories were just a little too painful.

You do a wonderful job of blending the digital and the natural with your music; what is it about modular synthesis that seems to draw that out in you?

Nature is very important to me and is something that I am inspired and humbled by. I try to put those feelings into my music and they end up there in both obvious and subtle ways. I think the open-ended nature of modular has something to do with it. Modular has allowed me to build out an instrument tailored to my workflow. It’s an instrument that equally allows and rewards expression and spontaneity. Sometimes patching reminds me of gardening.

What is your favourite season, and what are you looking forward to in the months to come?
 
I love the colder seasons. Fall is probably my favorite. It’s amazing to watch the landscape change during these transitional seasons. If Spring is for renewal, then Fall is for letting go. I find comfort in that. For some reason I just seem to get so much more done in the Fall and Winter. Maybe it has something to do with the air being crisper. Gloomy days seem to match my artistic and emotional sensibility. In the coming months I am looking forward to finishing a new release for the label Dauw (represented twice in this mix in Twincities’ “ The Story of the World Unbinding” and Lambert’s “It Might Be a Feeling”), catching up on my reading list, drinking a lot of tea, and making a lot of soup in my slow cooker.

----------

Thank you again to Austin for contributing such a beautiful mix, and for the thoughtful answers. His newest release, "Eistla" (http://rbeny.bandcamp.com/album/eistla) is a perfect soundtrack to this colder season we find ourselves in. If you're new to his work, head back into his discography and we swear you won't be disappointed. He makes the kind of music that's so easy to just put on repeat, and have playing throughout the day.
