Alpha Mound & Tidsrymd "En plats i solen" (release date: June 17)

Alpha Mound & Tidsrymd is a musical collaboration that has been going on since 2019. The first single "Slow-wave Sleep/Dröm i färg" was released in 2020 and now their debut album "A place in the sun" will be released on June 17, 2023. The music moves between post-rock, ambient, kraut and dream pop. It is instrumental music, using vocals without words. With vivid song titles and musical visualization, they take listeners through different imagined scenes. The album is released on streaming services and CD through Stålverk Records.


Alpha Mound

Alpha Mound is Joakim Westlund's solo project. Since his first release in 2012 he has produced many albums and EP:s under this moniker, sometimes through collaborations with other artists. The music is usually ambient with sound design as a central element.


Tidsrymd

Tidsrymd is Johan Ohlsson's project, producing electronic music since 2018. The music moves between kraut, minimalism and ambient. 


Alpha Mound & Tidsrymd "En plats i solen"

The album "En plats i solen" was mostly made by the duo in Joakim's studio in Sandviken. Later on guest musicians have been brought in to build the large soundscape that makes up the record. The album features Sofia Costa Nordvall (vocals), Karolina Dahl (vocals), Peter Fredriksson (trombone), Martin Hällgren (drums) and Ida Norrman (vocals).


About some of the tracks:

Godmorgon framtid was the first single from the album, which came with a remix by Slim Vic. It is inspired by an old coffee table book from 1984, with the same name, in which Bengt-Arne Vedin and Bengt Preston painted titillating visions of the future and predicted such things as "electronic express letters" and robotic lawnmowers. It is an energetic, hopeful and uplifting song.

Dagsverk is a work song with a swagger, post rock guitars and humming sing-along chorus, kind of a spiritual for the 2020s. 

Vid tystnadens rand takes us to atmospheric ambient with quietly humming vocals (a bit like Enya). Alpha Mound plays a bowed guitar, which adds a kind of quiet drama to the song.

Östersjön paints a dystopian dark ambience to soft, jazzily stroked drums. We see the song as a bittersweet musical depiction of a rather ruined place, where beauty and tragedy sings side by side.

En plats på solen is a brutal song that contrasts the uplifting title track. But instead of beaches and leisure, we imagine solar storms and extreme heat. The composition is inspired by the title track of the 1984 Dune film and Edvard Grieg's "The Death of Asa" from the Peer Gynt suite, but filtered through the usual punk/indie racket.

SONGS OF HOPE FOR A NEW REALITY.

This work consists of three songs.
 
The first song is for a baritone voice and represents that it is sung by a character who is a journalist and tries to give an overview of the many global crises and conflicts that are currently haunting us and causing "perplexity in an uncertain world".

The second song, for a contralto voice, represents that it is the reply given by a female character who is an anthropologist, to the previous journalist arguing that we can only save ourselves if we start from approaches based on ethics and anthropology to build a "critical conscience of our species" that allows us to create a new global reality where all human beings have a dignified and comfortable life.

The third song is a fugue for four voices (for soprano, alto, tenor and bass) and represents the well- meaning people who have honestly understood what the situation is: it is only possible to overcome this "perplexity in an uncertain world, creating new global reality for all.

At the end of this introduction I attach a PDF with the lyrics of the three songs. I put the original version in English and also its translation into Spanish.

The music has an initial inspiration in what we could call musical styles of modern popular music, but with the aim of reaching a final composition of a more abstract and artistic nature. Regarding the musical production, as is usual in my works, the score of the different musical parts is performed by computer software, specifically in the instrumental parts I have used the synthesizer (granular and spectral) called Padshop 2 and also samplers from the VSL (Vienna Symphonic Library) that, although in this library the instruments have acoustic timbre, I have given them an electronic music treatment. But the most peculiar part is the one corresponding to the voices in which I have used the VOCALOID 6 software that has a singing synthesis technology that produces singing voices that are very realistic and with the ability to articulate words and that has been, initially , developed to sing in the Japanese and English languages.

As for the textual content of the lyrics of the songs, I have written it myself and I wanted it to start from the current global reality and to have, as far as possible, a projection in the general interest. I have been inspired by various texts that I have read lately and, especially, the book "El porvenir de la humanidad”  written by Eudald Carbonell i Roura, a Catalan archaeologist and anthropologist who has a long and important professional career.

Program Note:

Convergence is a work composed for augmented double-bass and electronics performer in third-order ambisonics, which explores numerous concepts including the interactivity and agency between acoustic / electronic elements, and the interplay of gesture and musical materials in three-dimensional space. Convergence is the second piece in a small collection of works developed for five-string double-bass and ambisonic electronics, in collaboration with bassist Aleksander Gabryś.

In order to perform Convergence, the bass is outfitted with eight microphones placed at various points across the body of the instrument. This causes the physical actions of the bassist to correspond not only to specific sounds / timbres, but also to discrete points in space. However, this perceptual mapping is then manipulated and paired against new electronically generated materials in real-time by an electronics performer using a pair of bespoke electronic performance interfaces, MH & CH. MH is constructed out of a metal frame which mounts to the palm; this structure places five 2-axis control sticks at the performer’s fingertips, as well as a ribbon sensor on the back of the hand, and a 3-axis accelerometer. Meanwhile, CH is constructed with flex sensors, which provide data about the bending of individual fingers, and another 3-axis accelerometer. Both of these controllers feed into machine-learning processes (made with the ml.star package for Max/MSP and Wekinator) which allow for the classification of a number of gestures, as well as shaping the sometimes chaotic control data.

All of these ideas collide in a densely chaotic and gestural work which encourages both performers to push their respective limits musically and technically while interacting with a performance system that encourages intricate and nimble musical interactions. In working with Aleksander, we developed a set of expectations and rules which governed the performance, and which allowed for occasionally subtle, and sometimes pronounced shifts in our musical roles. Convergence also makes use of an audio score paired with visual cues, which is visible to the performers on a small screen nearby. Ultimately, the chaotic nature of the work gives both performers agency to explore the sonic and performative extremes of this complex system, as well as the liminal spaces which exist in-between.

Additional Technical Notes:

Both Convergence and its companion piece Conduit make use of some fixed-media sound, as well as a microphone array, which was developed and recorded with the assistance of Mr. Gabryś in January 2020 at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA) at Stanford University. In order to create this system, eight microphones were placed at various points across the body of a five-string double-bass. Each of these microphone inputs were then spatialized into a three-dimensional “exploded map" of the instrument using the ICST Ambisonics Package in Max/MSP. In addition to placing the listener “inside” of the fragmented instrument, this technique also allows for physical gesture, and sound produced all over the instrument to correspond to literal points in space. In both Convergence and Conduit, this technique is further employed in real-time, in third-order and fifth-order ambisonics respectively.

The microphone array was achieved with the following microphone models and placements:

2x DPA 4099 Microphones
One placed at the primary point of bow contact (near the bridge) on the strings
The other placed at the top of the fingerboard

4x AKG C411 Condenser Vibration Microphones
Placed in a “four-corners” pattern on the front of the instrument, with two on
opposite sides of the upper bout, and the other two on opposite sides of the
lower bout.

2x Schertler Bass Pickup Microphones
One attached directly to the bridge
The other attached directly to the tailpiece

Convergence (2020) // Binaural Audio

This is to share my creations and discover yours.

Those sounds we put together and call ''music'' mean everything to me.
Regardless of the style, genre, or cultural ethnicity, 
All these kinds of sounds have always occupied a huge part of my time, attention and listening.

''Music'' has followed me and been a companion in the happiest and through some of the absolute worst moments of my life.

I have been taught in a way, by every composer, conductor and otherwise musicians, bands and performers I have admired and spent so much time listening to over the years. 

My biggest influence is Karl Heinz Stockhausen, for his textures and sonorities the experimental concept from which his creations and sounds came to life, for his approach to performing and the thoroughness of detailing and documenting his works.
 
I began creating and recording my own ambient-experimental soundscapes 10 years ago with the discovery of software synthesizers and Digital Audio workshops. 
Thanks to Soundcloud, I can now share worldwide what I do and take a plunge into this vast network of ''music''. 

I use mostly orchestral instruments, but also a vast combination of ethnic and modern instruments, including synthesizers.

I use all kinds of sacred chants, ethnic voices, choirs. 
I routinely route instruments to sound processing, where the effect is an instrument.
I often use various sound sources.

Please feel free to share your track with me, I am always eager to discover:)
I am not big at reposting tracks, I find it a bit confusing, but necessary.
What I do is if you repost one of my tracks, I will repost you. 
When I repost you, I automatically tweet you also and share your track on other social media.
That way, we both contribute to the sharing of our works!
