Living Room n°13 ~ @fun_s

q. pls introduce yourself

Hello you, I’m Funes.


q. is there a story behind the mix? how did it come together?

The story behind the mix is that this year I had to say goodbye to two important people in my life. I recorded the mix during this difficult time to process the whole thing a little bit. It was an evening where I tried to bring light and dark together and let the feelings run free.


q. in your opinion, what would be the ideal circumstances to enjoy 
your mix?

Put on headphones and close your eyes no matter what circumstances are going on.


q. describe a favourite object in your living room...

The Windows.


q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

At the moment I don't have a bigger music project in front of me. Maybe I will release some own productions here on Soundcloud/Bandcamp. But I'm going to be out in nature a lot in the near future to focus on myself, to calm down, to clear my mind and to look ahead.

A decade is a long pause… how the world has changed since…

Longtime friends and collaborators, iconic ambient composer William Basinski and sound artist/composer Richard Chartier return to LINE with 'Aurora Terminalis', their first new work together since 2015’s ‘Divertissement’ LP (Important Records, US).

From an unexpected sudden burst of sound jaggedly spiraling outward, the tumult fades and shockwaves slide into lulling haze of a melody. Background nuance—nearly imperceptible—and foreground romanticism ripple near each others’ edges. Then, rhythmic and liquid, an erratic drifting over a clouded void... an 'un-still' life... a slow tracing.

'Aurora Terminalis'… a fading gauzy signal for a finality.

Basinski and Chartier have previously released two collaborative works on LINE; Aurora Liminalis (2013) and Untitled 1-3 (2008, an expanded reissue of 'Untitled' originally on Spekk, Japan, 2004), as well as the archival Bandcamp exclusive 'Something from the Pink House' a live improvisation recorded in 2004.

William Basinski's archival album 'The Clocktower at the Beach (1979)' was released on LINE in 2023.
