For our eleventh episode of our Herbarium mix series, we invite the gifted french producer and DJ @clarencerise. His unique sound signature can be sensed in his very well curated mix. Clarence chose the plant Digitalis Purpurea for his journey, also known as foxglove. He put together some beautiful thoughts about this unique species and its connection to his musical work:
Sublime and fascinating, deadly and curative, Digitalis Purpurea is the perfect symbol of ambivalence. It grows along most of the paths in the temperate forest of the Vosges, my roots, so it's been present throughout my whole life. This ambivalence can be found in my work. Its dangerousness makes it disquieting, like the evolution of the podcast. Its healing properties against tachycardia (illustrated by the increasing rhythm) make it an ally, a remedy.

Herbarium No 11 - Clarence Rise - Digitalis Purpurea

"Music that transcends mere preciousness; the soundtrack of a rollercoaster, and a creation that goes beyond floating. Music allows for the forging of sensations, weaving journeys of intrigue, beauty, and instability. A "cadavre exquis" of pure abstraction and concept, leading the ear to unusual places. This journey is a magnificent example of these beautiful musical purposes."

hems (@hems) crafts sonic experiences that blend experimental elements from electronica and musique concrète, evoking a sense of mystery as familiar forms transform into the unknown. Over the past few years, Hems has been a featured DJ at numerous events spanning Europe, Asia, and Latin America. His DJ sets have graced prestigious stages, including multiple appearances at Astral Industries, Kizen Records and Vurt events. As a live artist, Hems showcased his talents in a noteworthy project called "The Listening Body", this innovative show brought live drones to life using gongs, singing bowls, synthesizers, and an impressive array of 20 speakers. Additionally, Hems has ventured as a solo artist, employing the immersive 20-speaker system by AMOENUS to create mesmerizing ambisonic performances. Last but not least in 2023 together with Pagan Red, Hems started a new label "Titrate" (@titraterecords) focused on drone and experimental music.

Recorded in the ambient room at Springkell, Scotland, in 2022.

Echoes From Two Worlds 

Since I started with field recordings, I’ve been fascinated by the contrast between two completely different soundscapes: natural and human-generated ones.

At the beginning of the process, I was pretty sure to record and use only natural sounds, because, you know, for me, it’s a kind of ritual when I need to be detached from the day-to-day life. I want to be completely immersed in a natural environment to understand which type of sound I could use during the production process with the field recordings I’m capturing.

This time, something different clicked in.

I was walking in the city centre of my hometown just doing some basic commissions. At a certain point 3 “sound scenes” captured my attention: a busker, some church bells and a guy selling fruits in a market.

From normal sound perceptions, you usually don’t pay attention to this kind of day-to-day situation, but here, something was, I don’t know, connected.

Everything was perfectly aligned and in tune. I found these 3 sounds similar to what I usually listen to in a wood: birds singing, the wind hitting the trees and rain. 

I don’t know why, but something clicked and I had to record everything and build artificial sounds around this kind of soundscapes. 

"Echoes from two worlds” is conceived within a concept around the sound of nature and human-generated sounds and how they can sometimes be completely different and in contrast with each other, but at the same time have a recurrent pattern that cannot be ignored. 

The idea within this album is to maintain the organic sounds of field recordings with a digital touch using pads and other harmonic sounds.

It seeks to access a deeper sonic dimension where the listener can immerse in a different perception of what we usually hear and try to focus our listening on the dialogue between us and the soundscapes that surround us. 

In this first work we also wanted to include a 3rd vision on these tracks and we’re thankful to have 3 remixes of three great artists and friends that joined this sonic experience with us. 

A special thanks to MARMO (Christian & Marco), Avsluta (Lucie) and Adrian Newgent for their reworks.

Paradoxical Tranquility

Ethereal Rhythm

download/stream

Pattrn - Ethereal Rhythm

A haunting wave of nostalgia and emotion slowed into infinity, reverb echoing like memories you can’t escape.

"YOU COULD BE SOMEONE" x Empathy (Slowed + Reverb)

“A Kindness” is a short ambient suite tracing the residue of memory, soft gestures, and quiet absurdities. From the scent of wet earth to a lullaby lost mid-sentence, it leaves you in a stillness that lingers.
