Rinnovare is the project of BC artist Matteo Neufeld. Despite the challenges that came with 2020, he graced the year with many releases. Accompanied on strings by partner Chloe Davidson, and production engineering form Andrew Judah. The first being his modern-classical / dream pop EP titled Aperturia. The next was a double single release with label Ambientologist, from the Netherlands. Followed after that was Rinnovare's re - release of his long sought-after record Suspended Animation. This being an album that was traced around many countries, over the span of six years. It evolved into being a dense, rhythmic & reflective collection of modern-classical, post-rock and ambient hybrid. During the summer of 2020, Rinnovare began to write & record Held Under All, the upcoming record being released on Shimmering Moods Records, from Amsterdam. This is Rinnovare's most nuanced, minimalist, calming & seductive album to date. Featuring acclaimed artist collaborations such as Benoît Pioulard, Voga & Bedroom, a cohesive & sprawling display of wash, texture & beauty has been manifested here. Mixed by Slow Meadow, and mastered by Rafael Anton Irisarri, Rinnovare has continuously pursued crystal clear production aesthetic, contrasted with raw & organic atmosphere all over.

Rinnovare feat. Benoît Pioulard - To Be in the Grey is Okay

Un peu différent (Live Jam extract w/ Dan Chicharron)

@Pawas explores contrast and connection on Balance, a two-track EP that highlights his versatility as a producer. “BAYA,” created in Goa with Japanese artist Noriko Shakti, fuses analog synths, tabla, and vocals into a rich blend of dub, house, Detroit, and electronica. “DAYA,” made solo at home in Berlin, is a stripped-down, lo-fi reflection of recent personal transitions. Together, the tracks showcase two distinct energies—brought into harmony through Pawas’ thoughtful, textured sound.

"Whatever eternity is, is here right now - and nowhere else.  Or everywhere else... When you get to heaven, that's not eternal, that's just everlasting.  Heaven lasts a long time, it's not eternal.  It's everlasting.  Eternal is beyond time."  - Joseph Campbell

Here's my fourth installment of my cassette/audio collage series. As I've mentioned before, each tape recipient got a tarot card drawn for them for the theme of their collage. This one was for my treasured mentor and friend, Rich. The card I drew for her was the final card in the Tarot, the 21st arcana:  the World.  Oh yeah, and you get to hear me read from a book on this one lol

The World (or in Thoth decks, The Universe) is a complex yet deceptively simple symbol.  In mundane use it represents completion, wholeness.  But it's more than that.  The World/Universe is ruled by Saturn, the outermost and slowest of the traditional planets; balance; fertility; death; the letter Tau.  Without getting too wordy, essentially, what the World/Universe represents here is the unity of the beginning and the end - masculine and feminine essences, a combination which creates the final element, "quintessence".  The beginning and the end, and all that falls between these two guideposts.  The divine. The eternal.

Well anyway.  For this tape, I chose to try to represent this idea through the sounds of someone climbing a mountain - reaching the top, and looking out around them.  Their journey is over, and their journey just begins.  This one is mostly 4th world and Berlin style proggy stuff, cuz... yea!

Again, I hope you enjoy this tape as much as I enjoyed making it.  Happy birthday, by the way! Tracklist below
