MEMINISSE
I U VA B I T

This release is the result of the collaboration with the artist Federico Gargaglione and it is the first of three proposals willing to confront different expressive registers and dimensions of action.
Sound, image and matter combine to produce an all-encompassing and complicit meaning.
A limited edition of prints on metal, a single instant to interpret a world of sounds, balanced between the imperfection of the real and the seriality of its replicas.

A soundtrack composed of eighteen pieces that straddle distant environments, radical timbres and irregular rhythms, different artists and approaches focusing on the same dystopias.
A multi-handed painting that tells of a reality imprisoned in its surrogate, hostage to nightmares that are nothing new for those who have always made music for an impossible future.

SI048 - RUSSELL E.L. BUTLER live

Italian-born, Prague-based DJ Ester is sort of a young blood to the local scene. Her enthusiasm for electronic music brought her to play her first gig in 2018, since then she brings us a long, dark, escalating journey through her sets mainly inspired by the sounds of electronic body music, industrial and post-punk. 
But there are no borders in her music selection, you can also hear her play dark-ambient and oriental stuff that fill the gaps of silence in her life on daily  basis.

Narozena v Itálii, nyní žijící v Praze, Ester je svým způsobem mladá krev na lokální scéně. Její zápal pro elektronickou hudbu jí poprvé přivedl k hraní na akci v roce 2018. Od té doby přináší dlouhou, temnou, gradující cestu svými sety, inspirovanou hlavně zvuky electronic body music, industrialu a post punku. Ale v její hudební selekci žádné hranice nejsou, můžete ji také slyšet hrát dark ambient a orientalní věci, které vyplnují momenty ticha v jejím životě na denní bázi.

Mumdance b2b Ron Morelli - 8th August 2017

A1 Mehanizm Snippet

B.F.E. Records and Subsist Records jointly release the debut EP of Belgian producer Bambi OFS (Cédric Dambrain), a multidisciplinary artist with a musical concept motivated by an exploration of the thresholds of perception, psychoacoustics and the physiological impact of sound.

This diversity of themes is matched by his wide range of production styles, which include electroacoustic computer music, compositions for ensembles, noise, sound installations and, more recently, club-oriented polyrythmic explorations. Dambrain has also been composing extensively for performance artists and music theatre.

Spanning four tracks of intricate and ever-shifting rythmic progressions, YAKKA frames a tense and glittering ethnofictional world, combining kaleidoscopic percussive textures with a precisely economical aesthetic.

Extending on Cédric’s exploration of sound.space.perception as a unified phenomenon in his sound installations and noise projects, the record artwork features a photography shot by ethnomusicologist Judith Becker during a Bebuten ceremony in Bali: the picture evokes her inquiry in the trance phenomenon, in which she demonstrates that our ability to enjoy trance and its healing virtues is inversely proportional to our sense of separatedness from the rest of the world. Meshing together numerous influences, and reflecting on the self/other dichotomy, YAKKA is a playful invitation to reconsider our identification processes.

Release date: October 1st, 2020.

Premiere: Bambi OFS - K∆∆I [B.F.E Records & Subsist Records]

Inner Circle are proud to present our new project CIRCLECAST. 

CIRCLECAST is a series of recordings from friends, artists, DJs, and performers from our surrounding community, intended to inspire connection and memories for the raves that we were able to host and attend regularly before this year. Our plan is to have a mix series, guest interviews, livestreams, and more.  

For our first instalment to welcome in the 2021 new year, we bring you this slammin' techno journey from Montreal DJ-producer s.talbot (@d_nrgy).

Like our live events, which seek to represent the diversity happening in today's underground dance music, our mix series is separated by the names of the events we would host pre-covid, with different genres and styles represented in each one. This mix falls under RIFT, our more techno / industrial-focused offering. 

We'll be posting mixes once to twice a month, usually with a mini interview (French, English, Bilingual) exploring the creative mind of the featured artist. Big thank you to s.talbot for letting us into his world -- have a look below!

************************************

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺(𝘀) 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆 𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰?

Birdsong! 

𝗛𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗶𝘀 𝗹𝗮 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗲𝗿, 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗯𝘂𝗺𝘀, 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀-𝘁𝘂 ?

J’ai eu la chance de découvrir la techno et l’ambient au cours de raves – ce qui m’a vraiment inculqué que les deux styles, ambient et techno, existent sur 2 faces distinctes d’une même dimension. L’intensité de leurs énergies sont extrêmement rapprochées, et partagent des destinations semblables, pour moi. 

Dans ce sens, je suis extrêmement attiré par la discographie de zoviet-france, groupe proto- ambient des années 80/90. Une musique faite maison, non-linéaire, qui représente l’expérience d’un moment - difficilement descriptible. 

(Shouting at the Ground; Mohnomishe; Vienna 1990) 

𝗜𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗻𝗱/𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀?

Most of the dance tracks I play, I have listened to over and over again alone - which often has the effect of transporting my mind to a strobe flashing, time deprived space of uninterrupted dance. And when I get that feeling, it’s usually a good sign that it’s the kind of track I’ll want to share. This feeling usually revolves around perceptions of freedom and connection with the people around me.

𝗗é𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘀-𝗻𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗝 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗰é𝗻𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼 𝗱'𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗱é𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼𝗶.

Je pense que la disposition idéale se situe dans le retrait de la présence visuelle de la personne performante (sauf si cette présence est artistiquement requise). Un arrangement qui permet une meilleure concentration (ou une absence de déconcentration) relative à la source physique du son. Ça, je pense, c’est une manière de tirer le maximum de l’expérience. Je le perçois d’une manière similaire à éteindre un écran pour écouter une production. En enlevant le support visuel, on active des capacités auditives sur lesquelles on ne peut pas se concentrer lorsque nos yeux sont occupés à surveiller la source superficielle du son. Sans cette déconcentration, l’esprit est plus libre pour comprendre, cerner, aller plus loin dans ce qui est audible. On se perd moins dans des détails qui ne comptent pas, ultimement.

CIRCLECAST 001 ≁ s.talbot

This week, a momentous deep techno traversal from engimatic Ottawa DJ/producer/live performer @ruthgrader. He's also the funder of @mixedsignals-cc, a great platform covering key happenings in the underground electronic music community. 

This set debuts our 'side effects' sub-series, for more cerebral, deep, and downtempo-oriented sounds.

I'm really into photography, either analog and digital and really enjoy exploring empty spaces, outdoors and architecture and document my own moments from weird angles, shapes and textures. I have a professional background in Web Development and Design, so I always found myself seeking for ideas for projects and photography was always one of those ways to find creative forms of expression within myself, and also to get me outside. 

I also have a professional background in Artisan Baking and cooking, with that passion I always found that I was able to express a creative side of myself through food and the art of making it. I find it super important to always find any sort of creative output that will contribute to put our minds in trance and get something out of the box from it. 

What’s your favorite album, artist, or music to listen to that isn’t dance music?

When I was an early teenager, in the late 90s, I got heavily involved in the Punk and Hardcore community in South America (where I'm from) and played in many bands, touring toured all over until I moved to Canada in 2009. I'm still a punk and but that was my world basically, so there are some bands and albums that I still carry with me and listen every day, some older than others. Here's one from Spain:

Ictus - Impervm 12"
https://open.spotify.com/album/3UsbhfBCykXDVDIfUBcFya?si=eYVmY2TMTZC-DkO8cyeLnA

I also got really involved in Hip-hop in the late 90s, specifically in more creative and political related content based artists from South America. There are many but one in specific that really shaped me, I think that you should listen to her:

Anita Tjoux - 1977
https://open.spotify.com/album/3ZhTbUZNobDXuzcYWGzxA3?si=mlKNN5ywQ8iUGbczdpS3yQ

And something I'm listening while writing this, good for zipping coffee on a cold -20 Saturday morning:

Karate - Unsolved LP

Inhale, exhale, close your eyes and enjoy your journey because it will never happen again the same way.

When I started, I was doing live sets using hardware only, either playing shows at bars, DIY spaces or clubs. The settings for those live sets were always different and unexpected because when you do live sets like that, you usually don't have much control of where are you going to set your gear and where exactly are you going to play, sometimes behind the DJ booth, sometimes besides, in the front or even on top of the CDjs. It was until recently that I started DJing and found myself in the DJ booth. Both experiences are different and equality interesting and each night is different from the next one. 

I personally enjoy playing small dark spaces with a couple of probe lights and sweaty walls, at floor level. Not into the big DJ booth on top of the dancers because I should not be the focus, they are.
