Matthias Puech - Talausblick Vom Hohlichtpass [OF016]

'Tones mor' is taken from FWD24 - Rune Clausen 'Tones jul' 

Digipacks and digital available to purchase:
https://forwind.bandcamp.com/album/tones-jul

Forwind arrives at release number 25 with a trip to the Norwegian forests. Rune Clausen’s “Tones  jul”  leads the listener on a sinister trail through the thicket with a foreboding set of tracks that come winter ready from subzero Norway.

Tones jul  follows up the moods from his collaboration with Anders Brørby, “Mannen Faller”, a tribute to the long gone Norwegian forests, its animals and people living there in both fear and joy. Rune's Forwind debut is a darker and more anguished piece of work. Rune’s first solo album under his own name, is musically and thematically influenced by Norwegian folk music, ambient, ambient black metal, the rough and dark fates of 19th century people.

Ihminen poistuu

Kun ihminen poistuu täältä meri nousee
Kun ihminen poistuu täältä 
myös perhonen katoaa
Sen siipeen palaa reikä
koska aurinko porottaa
ja meri jatkaa nousuaan

Kun ihminen poistuu täältä ei koti suojaa
Kun ihminen poistuu täältä hän huutaa Jumalaansa
Ei kuule Allah, ei Buddha ei Jeesus pelasta
Ei kukaan enää kuuntele vain aurinko liikaa kuumottaa
ja meri jatkaa nousuaan

Kun ihminen poistuu täältä ei rahalla enää saa
Kun ihminen poistuu täältä ymmärtääkö hän
Me kaikki olimme yhtä. Me ihmiset ja tämä maa
Me kaikki olimme yhtä
Nyt se kaikki katoaa

Sanat Jutta Tukia, musiikki Janne Lappalainen

Ihminen Poistuu

Experimental Synth Kids is a collection of ambient musical works composed and improvised by children age 3 to 15. The tracks have been recorded in Louhimo children’s culture center workshops by Samuli Kukkola (Ruusut) together with Jarkko Salo (Oranssi Pazuzu).  

”We brought synthesizers and sequencers with us to schools and kindergartens and taught the kids how to use them. We aimed to create a pressure free atmosphere, where the children with little or no previous knowledge of electronic music equipment could easily make music and sounds together. They were divided in small groups and their improvising recorded for approximately 20 minutes at a time. There was soon several hours worth of material, from which I compiled the 10 songs on the album.”

The album will be released on vinyl as a limited batch on October 23rd 2019, and it’s distributed by Ektro Records. Cover design is by Tomi Leppänen, and the booklet features paintings by children in Pajuluoma day care center.

Rutger Zuydervelt, a.k.a. Machinefabriek , needs no presentation to the ambient and drone audiences. (Hyper)active since the early 2000s, he epitomizes a minimalistic, electro-acoustic approach to these genres bringing together real world and synthetic oscillations. Berlinde Deman is a tuba player, and amongst many other projects member of the unconventional jazz big band Flat Earth Society.

In Luchtwezen, the two are brought together by a common veneration of the physical experience of the creation of sound. Both musicians each exploit on this record an unusual instrument: Rutger plays the Hess church organ of Oude Kerk Charlois, in south Rotterdam (together with some electronics); Berlinde sings, and plays the serpent, an ancient wind instrument, made out of wood and shaped like a snake. The meeting of the two should have taken place, as a matter of fact, in the Oude Kerk Charlois itself, during a live concert organized by Koffie & Ambacht. However, the quick rise to power of Covid-19 forced the duo to turn this get-together (as all musical get togethers during our quarantines) into a virtual one: a studio recording, that you can hear as Luchtwezen .

And yet, by just listening to the record, you may be fooled into thinking that this was a live recording - as we have all thought, because of their intensity, that some quarantine Zoom calls were not happening over a screen, but rather out there, in the real world. The flow is natural, the sound space unitary. The clicks of the organ keys are just right there in front of us. After the first brooding half, we all feel the mysterious, oriental breath flowing from the serpent in the spaces between us. And then, a simple melody sang by the organ reminds us of the feeling of excitement of going to a live concert - where you know that a serpent will dance to the sound of the organ's pipes.
