[FL022][Premiere] ljj555998 - moremore is good

Impossible Piano is a collection of AI generative MIDI piano pieces, merged with field recordings sourced from New York throughout 2021 by New-York based artist sysadmin and accompanied by visuals shot by Karolina Lisowski.

Split in two sides and referencing artists such as Ryuichi Sakamoto, Tim Hecker and Taylor Brook, it constitutes a complete narrative oscillating between structure and texture respectively.

Impossible Piano I-IV is a compositionally driven affair, welcoming the listener with a deceptively simple motif that progressively complexifies and expands into something new yet altogether reminiscing of its core. Unconcerned with sonic deviations for the entirety of its 4-track duration, it stands out as a presentation of delicate arrangements.

Impossible Piano [Lullaby Mix] shifts the focus to a refined layering of found sounds submerged in minimalist piano ambience. Sounds sourced from trains, electric currents and material interaction, illuminated by occasional glimpses of melody, comprised in a single music piece.

Hunt - 2908 (As If Enchanted Lives In Me)

After releasing "Retain a Breath" last year, @fmsao returns on Imum Coeli with a new full-length album titled "Tales of Severe Damage," which marks his fifth release in his discography. This monumental sonic canvas encompasses a wide spectrum of electronic genres : you can hear elements of ambient and IDM from the 90s and 2000s, passages reminiscent of krautrock from the 70s and 80s, deconstruction, glitch, noise, Soviet electronic music by Eduard Artemyev, video game soundtracks in the spirit of Jesper Kyd and Akira Yamaoka, and much more. FMSAO magically unifies this entire sonic spectrum into a cohesive dramaturgical narrative. We find ourselves in sunlit clearings one moment and in the dimly lit chambers of David Lynch's films the next, while also witnessing something grand and cosmic that defies description. This can be likened to a psychedelic journey with the purpose of healing the soul and addressing profound damages. The album is about the power of overcoming and the strength of the inner light that resides within each of us.

"..it's an old sorb tree, the ancient one. It is the temple of existence. Its commonwealth is buzzing with liveliness.
Fragile beings of its system worships the eternal order. The biological reality order.

Everywhere around are wing cases that crepitate and whisper. Everyone quite chaffy dressed in full baroque armour."

PRE-ORDER ALBUM

eva01 - Chitin

Versatile A/V artist and producer based between Riga and Berlin, N1L intersects eclectic "club" music experiments with post-industrial psychedelia and intense alien soundscapes. Having recently been focused on independent self-publishing, his previous releases have also been put out by acclaimed labels such as UIQ, Opal Tapes, among others.

ПОТОП (“potop”, or deluge in Russian) presents seven pieces encapsulating dark apocalyptic themes, each setting the scene for a disorientating sonic landscape that references the genesis flood narrative found in the world’s ancient mythologies. Centered on Earth's return to a pre-anthropocene state of watery chaos, this allegory illustrates both punishment for man’s mortal sins as well as new beginnings born from the washing away of everything that has reached its final, obsolete stage — the message of which is increasingly relevant today.

Europa’s music works on the idea of bringing together and processing fragments of memory reflecting on their meaning and significance. His idea is to express the unique character of particular moments of his life intensified by the process of remembering them through the lenses of his emotions. Enhanced by the value they have gained in time each particular moment expands into something bigger than the moment itself and blends with the meaning it has gained in relation to all other events surrounding it. The two tracks work around the experience of a specific night out with fire torches while listening to music under a soft rain and reflecting on relationships and dialogues held that night. Europa recalls the falling raindrops reflecting the fire of the torches in connection to his personal experience of love interweaved with doubt and melancholy. The result are two exquisite tracks drenched in nostalgia, passion and contrasting emotions.

‘
There is grief, exultation and relief inherent in belonging to community. Re Munus reflects on the tone of deep gravity with which the re munisation of the de munised is unravelling. The generations which dismantled their social contract, achieved immunity, revoked solidarity.

Severe circumstances foment collectivity, suffering and empathy, interrupting the ethereal dream of social weightlessness. Re Munus sketches sensations and observations during a time of reorientation, rediscovery of lived sensibility on a relational scale. An encounter with sensations which we had said defined us—the tangibility of which we had forgotten, believed to be confined to the past. There is tension between the physical withdrawal and lived intensity which permeates these works.
’ Lugh


Personal drift. There is a multitude of presences guiding you through this record as a listener, not without their own doubts as to where they are leading you. A murky social space. Time-compressed club experiences within layered acoustic dimensions; consolidated, captured and played back into the same space. I am sitting in several rooms simultaneously. Death metal screams in an Animal Crossing world modelled on our own.

 The choral rush of ‘Million Dollar Cowboy’ from Lugh’s Hélico EP (2018) re-appears again in ‘Braises’ and ‘Free Fall’, deeper and re-figured. Sometimes the record also haunts itself—each element heard having been through a process so long and many-staged, it’s as though it has already lived.

 These compositions hold within them a flawed attempt to communicate on every level. The desire of language as expressed through music—towards shared meaning. Paradoxically voiced and voiceless, it denies textual, verbal description, instead crying out through the cracks in forming its own liquid tongue. Clone choirs simultaneously rehearse in an open space below. A slow walk through this spectacle. It’s an anguished record as much as it is at times tranquil. The movement between voices detached and embodied becomes playful—often warping them far beyond recognisability.

Beautiful artefacts. Stomach churns in the face of a burnt-out horizon. Cantering & sneezing. Air is driven into the corners and creases of a gold-plated, reverberant structure. The neural network claps to keep itself in time. Gutter Synthesis organ lament; tears of the duffing oscillators. There are moments on this release when tensely divergent fragments are barely held together. The prominent human voice mixing with the heavily re-sampled voice—it’s an incredible lift. Superimposed night and day. Sonic creatures living within the material, sharing time and space. Tenderness and together-ness.
