"Singe" is the new record by Angelo Harmsworth, a musician who hails from the American Southwest and is operating now out of Berlin. Harmsworth’s work deals resolutely in extremes, but this music is not concerned with presenting binary or dichotomous relationships so much as it is with reconciling disparate sensibilities and sounds. Layers of meticulously edited and sculpted tones swirl around one another, creating kaleidoscopic patterns and hallucinated choral motifs that seem to thrive on amplitude or the position of the listener’s head. There is a visceral physicality to this music that aligns it with some of the core tenets of harsh noise, even while its tonal and timbral choices recall those of ambient music. This record follows excellent releases on enmossed/Psychic Liberation, Angoisse, Opal Tapes, and Harmsworth’s own Lime Lodge imprint and may be the high water mark of his published output thus far. There is drama and implied narrative in these seven compositions that seethes and hums as if reveling in a sort of violent gracefulness. LP/Digital available on 9/30/22.

Aporia (feat. Felisha Ledesma)

A spoken word, a ritual that will endure,
A tapestry of family, longing, and disdain,
Weaving intricate tales of love and loss,
Structure before refrain,
No personal quest, just lessons to assure,
We sleep where we fall, and in this, we find
We cannot change the cards dealt, but we can reshuffle the design,
In the mundane, the divine, in the prison of self, the sacred in the confined.

Ten years ago, Parish Bracha anonymously released his Disconscious album Hologram Plaza, significantly influencing the still nascent Vaporwave scene. He continued producing a number of disparate anonymous projects until Cascade II was released in 2020 on Arca's Mutant Mixtape.

Cascades of Refinement, which includes the single Cascade II, is Parish's debut album released under his own name and his focus on the dialogue between the digital and the organic continues. The techniques that defined his influential early sound have been refined into a flawless hybrid of analog and digital textures which give his post-minimalist compositions an unmistakably personal expressivity.

Classical instruments are mutilated and transmuted into razor-sharp shards of glass suspended on piano wire above warped opalescent metal while never losing sight of their tonal integrity. Much like the impartial juxtaposition Parish employs in his timbral exploration, each composition explores the concepts of beauty and gentleness through and with extremity, violence, and chaos as equal counterparts, with each successive piece refining and relieving the artificial tension between these states. Employing use of the Una Corda, prepared piano, bowed piano, plucked piano, harpsichord, church organ, untuned violin, voice, synthesizers, and resampled field recordings, Cascades of Refinement lies somewhere in the indefinite space between acoustic and electronic and is beholden to neither.

Parish's initial electroacoustic experiments with piano and strings were interrupted by the pandemic lockdown when he was limited to sampled instrumentation and digital processing available on a computer. Out of this necessity evolved an appreciation for the incidental nature of digitally sampled acoustic instrumentation and the unpredictability of its interaction with digital signal processing.

As work on Cascades of Refinement continued and acoustic recording was reintroduced, the focus turned to the tension between recorded and sampled instrumentation, with the goal of integrating the two into a singular indistinguishable material to be warped and shaped together. Each of the four pieces of the Cascade series explores this tension, successively integrating and collapsing their distinction with each piece. 
 
The subtle artifacts of digital processing and incidental mechanical sounds of the acoustic are amplified and given presence alongside the tonal elements of each piece until a point of indivisibility is reached. The sound of a bow scraping along a string or a granular buffer freezing are neither discarded nor hidden, but selected as the ripest material to accompany and structure each composition. Cascades of Refinement is a dialogue between organic and digital, between the mercurial and infinitely reproducible, not as opposites, but as mereologically cohabiting counterparts with equal expressivity.

Ecstatic present the sublime second release from Mancunian duo Celestial, 'Listen To The Sky' offers a quiet fusion of Balearic blues and kosmische influences follows up their mesmerizing 2021 debut "I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night"'. 

Evoking a rich sonic palette of evocative guitar instrumentals with echoes of Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells and Frippertronics , Celestial deftly forge their own gentle and uncluttered fusion of acoustic and electric guitar textures with immersive environmental synthetic washes. 

Opener 'Brother Sun, Sister Moon' pairs Celestial with fellow dreamer and labelmate Romance (who also provide additional production flourishes throughout the record) for a stunning piece of modern chamber music wreathed with strident electric guitar, piano, horns and electronics, oceans of hiss bathe 'To The Green Mountains' plagent synth bass and meditative Paris, Texas esque guitar figures while 'Four Temparaments' provides an uncharacteristically but welcome clangorous and urgent new age lament. 

'Listen To The Sky's sun-drenched soundscapes and ethereal productions unfold with a kaleidoscopic and nostalgic ennui tenderly captured on fragile AGFA tap providing a mesmeric deep listening experience that skews to the mythic and trancendental.
