Over the past few years, Andrew Osterhoudt has quietly curated a slew of comforting kosmische musik that gazes deep into the stars while peering just as deeply inward. Now, the Brooklyn-based composer sets their sights on more tangible artifacts and nearby nuance with 'Out Together', an earthbound fit of maniacal mindfulness mixed with calm chaos.
 
Constructed on a scaffold of juxtaposed symmetry, the two sides of 'Out Together' foil and compliment each other in delicate harmony. Live collaborations with Ka Baird and John Also Bennett (JAB) colligate with manipulated found sounds from records and digital audio files from old broadcasting sound libraries, recontextualized into moments of ambient turntablism. The search for harmony shines throughout. Take the final tones of A-side closer “Runoff” drifting downstream with bubbly textures and arpeggiated bliss, trying to reach harmony with the initial tones of B-side opener “Frequency.” The latter ultimately spotlights a fortuitous flute duet from Baird and JAB born from Osterhoudt’s own graphic score.
 
The patient pointillism and avant assurance of “Crowds” balances out the opposite side’s “Everyone Arriving, Eventually,” a tone poem of sand-like textures flowing through melodic reeds and other sonic detritus. “Undergrowth” awakens in a steam-drenched run of modulated meditation, focusing on Ka Baird’s singularly enraptured vocal exorcisms which perfectly reflect its B-side counterpart “The Breathing Green,” engaged in a din of rustic psychedelia with waves of buzzing, ember-like tones and unseen fauna.
 
As a whole, 'Out Together' presents a vibrant spectrum of feelings ranging from magnified isolation to zoomed-out, wide-angled euphoria.

Introducing "ReyMod Mod Megamix" – a nostalgic journey through the electronic soundscape of the late '90s. This extraordinary megamix is a compilation of tracks meticulously crafted by ReyMod using the pioneering software ModEdit between the years 1994 and 1999.

ModEdit, a trailblazing MOD file editor for DOS developed by Norman Lin, made its mark in the early '90s as one of the first MOD software available for PCs. Its significance lies not only in its historical relevance but also in its unique features, setting the stage for the evolution of digital music production.

One standout characteristic of ModEdit was its ability to play MODs through the PC speaker without the need for additional sound hardware, a groundbreaking achievement achieved through the code crafted by Mark J. Cox. This innovative feature opened up new possibilities for music enthusiasts and artists alike, enabling them to create and enjoy electronic music without the constraints of external equipment.

The most celebrated version, v2.00, released in 1991, provided a user interface divided into three key sections: the Pattern Editor, Pattern Sequence Table, and Sample List. Navigation through these sections was primarily keyboard-driven, offering a hands-on and immersive experience for music creators.

The Pattern Editor, the heart of ModEdit, displayed intricate details of the current pattern in the sequence table. With four columns corresponding to the four channels of the MOD file, each column was further divided into three sub-columns for pitch (note name and octave number), sample number (linked to the sample list), and special effects codes. This design allowed for direct and precise editing of values, reminiscent of a hex editor but tailored for music composition.

"ReyMod Mod Megamix" pays homage to the golden era of electronic music production, encapsulating the essence of creativity unleashed through ModEdit during its heyday. Each track is a testament to ReyMod's artistic prowess and the revolutionary capabilities of ModEdit, transporting listeners back to a time when the digital frontier was still being explored, one note at a time.

TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS // BAERKSEY JUNGLE BOOTLEG

Bottlesmoker is Anggung Suherman and Ryan Adzani, an electronic music duo from Bandung, Indonesia, formed in 2008. Bottlesmoker has been known for their experimental approach to song-making, constantly pushing boundaries and exploring new possibilities. One remarkable aspect of their work is their adaptation of traditional Indonesian instruments. They ingeniously incorporate the sounds and techniques of these instruments into their electronic compositions, resulting in a fusion of traditional and modern elements.

In a truly innovative move, Bottlesmoker has even ventured into the realm of creating music for plants. They have developed a unique process where they use plants as instruments, allowing the natural responses of the plants to generate melodies and harmonies.
