Drifting in outerspace, the solar phone is ringing, static transmissions from afar... Please Pick Up...

For its 7th release, IO SOUND presents nine reworks of Pinkcourtesyphone, the industrialist / ambient face of microsound composer and LINE label director Richard Chartier. On Line 1, twelve acclaimed sound artists from across the planet attend to the lost transmissions of Pinkcourtesyphone, creating a haunting work of interstellar ambiance, spaced-out deep techno, and industrialist IDM. Expect fully immersive audio from our earthly cousins on Raster-Noton, 12k, Dragon’s Eye, and Sandwell District.

On Line 2, Pinkcourtesyphone joins forces with Kid Congo Powers of The Cramps, The Gun Club, and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. Kid speaks with just a hint of malice in his voice, torturing the strange disco of diva Amanda Lear: “I am a photograph... I am in colour and softly lit, overexposed and well blown-up”.

IO SOUND transmits to you a new echo from outer space: an industrialist retouch of haunted techno, industrialist IDM, outerspace ambiance and darkwave house.

Arriving on the particle winds of interstellar movement are the majestic and orchestral arrangements of Martijn Comes. Comes projects a mastery of space travel through sound, conjuring forth pulsating techno, cataclysmic IDM, and outer space ambience that is voluminous in its expanse. Each “field” is designed for a deeply immersive experience in other worlds. Full effects are felt when broadcasted at earth-shaking volume. Microscopic details unfold in the fractal geometry of Comes’ expressive composition. IO SOUND is honoured to present the transmissions of Martijn Comes from infinite spaces — and beyond.

Martijn Comes is a Dutch composer and electronic musician in new media, sound design and electro-acoustic composition. His previous releases include the Galactic Cinema EP (2013, IO SOUND), and four albums on Panospria: Dominion (2008), Lostitude (2008), Den Haag (2009) and Those who know do not speak | Those who speak do not know (2012). Comes has performed and collaborated with Twine, Philippe Petit, Ike Yard, Freida Abtan, and Scant Intone. He has performed across the EU, including the Knot Gallery in Athens, SoundFjord in London, OT301 in Amsterdam and WORM in Rotterdam. Comes is curating producer and presenter of two national radio shows in the Netherlands, "Kraak Helder" and "Inventions for Radio", both featured on the Concertzender. Comes studied Composition for Film at the Conservatory of Amsterdam with Jurre Haanstra (2010), and is currently a Master of Music student at the Academy of the Arts in Utrecht, and a Master of Philosophy student at the University of Bournemouth, UK.

IO.SOUND // off orbit from exoteric systems // transmissions from alien frequencies // decompiled drifts of static // encoded recordings from submerged civilizations // long obsolete traces of deep water sonar // motion captures of invisible interference // analogue loops of haunted sound // electromagnetic traces of the dead // IO.SOUND is hear to provide // for the craven ear // and the depleted body // disorganised sound .
