Description by Luminescu

C’est avec une atmosphère angoissante de film à suspens qu’Alcalina commence son récit, rapidement gagné par un groove minimal épuré et poussé. Un long dialogue percussif absorbe l’auditoire avec patience et réflexion, avec l’apparition timide d’un Rhodes furtif. La conception sonore est captivante, toujours en mouvement, et caractérisée par un arrière-plan riche et lointain : échos de discussions éthérées, opéra de Carmen.
La recherche rythmique est savante, la polyrythmie fascine lors de l’écoute, avec un rythme déconstruit et transformé en groove très lent. On assiste à une démonstration de force de musique minimale avec une saveur organique. Le caractère hypnotique et mental prend le dessus un moment, avant de glisser peu à peu vers un autre groove très travaillé, agrémenté de voix et d’éléments abstraits délicieux. Des notes tonales et atonales se confondent dans un équilibre précis.
Un thérémine vient caresser l’oreille de surprise. Musique concrète dans l’air, un bouquet d’instruments se découpe en une douce cacophonie. Une page se tourne vers une scène de film formidable, orchestrale, pleine d’émotion ; contraste ensoleillé et concret avant de rebasculer dans une qualité rythmique tenant du free jazz, très minimaliste et puissant.
L’épilogue de cette expérience cinématographique laisse le spectateur accompagné d’une belle basse ronde et d’une voix d’un autre temps, témoin acoustique des années 1950.

[EN] Alcalina begins her story with the anguishing atmosphere of a suspense film, quickly won over by a minimalist groove, pure and refined. A long percussive dialogue absorbs the audience with patience and reflection, with the shy appearance of an elusive Rhodes. The sound design is captivating, always in motion, and characterized by a rich and distant background: echoes of ethereal discussions, Carmen’s opera.
The rhythmic research is skilful, the polyrhythm fascinates when listening, with a rhythm deconstructed and transformed into a very slow groove. We witness a demonstration of minimal music strength with an organic flavour. The hypnotic and mental character takes over for a while, before gradually sliding into another very elaborate groove, embellished with delicious voices and abstract elements. Tonal and atonal notes merge in a precise balance.
A theremin comes to caress the ear of surprise. Concrete music in the air, a bouquet of instruments is cut into a soft cacophony. A page is turned to a wonderful film scene, orchestral, full of emotion; sunny and concrete contrast before turning back to a rhythmic quality with a free jazz feel, very minimalistic and powerful.
The epilogue of this cinematic experience leaves the spectator accompanied by a beautiful round bass and a voice from another time, an acoustic witness of the 1950s.

Vincent Casanova has been immersed in Electronic Music since 2000— though he began playing the drums and guitar long before he acquired a synthesiser. His first vinyl release arrived in 2004 on New York’s Sifted Recordings; since then, he’s worked hard in the studio to compile a sizeable discography that consists of four full-lengths and many more EPs, shared between labels including Tip Tap Records, Tzinah Records, and Archipel —the latter of which will also release his Esoterica album in 2017. He is also beginning to DJ in clubs across Europe, having refined his skills playing at smaller venues and after-parties in New York city, just a few hours from his birthplace of Connecticut. In addition to this, he has performed at Montreal’s Piknic Electronic and Berlin’s Love Parade.
Production, however, has remained his focus during much of this period, and it is only now that he feels ready to bring his studio sound into the club environment. Check out his more recent releases and it’s easy to spot the evolution of his groove-based sound into more abstract territories; indeed, it’s no coincidence that tracks like “365” and “Sway” were supported by some of the world’s leading selectors. While maintaining a warm and melodic feel, often with a strong bassline and dreamy elements, his productions range from house and techno to more breakbeat cuts with fragmented vocals and elements of pop. As a result, it’s hard to place Casanova in any single genre—though you can often identify one of his tracks when you hear it.
As a DJ, too, Casanova aims to meld various styles to construct different moods—and his exceptionally smooth 2016 XLR8R podcast is a perfect demonstration of his talents in blending woozy, meandering states with an irresistible groove. Many of his earlier bookings came either early or late in the night, allowing him the freedom to delve into the more experimental realms of his record collection; but he loves to play harder sounds when required.

*Vadim Svoboda of Makesense about my Rupert Wall mix:  "GREAT MIX Katharine, I have nothing to say but: tight, personal, varied but very homogenous... top notch."  

*Feeder Sound Romania: “her recordings are intense and with a sophisticated perspective on sounds and rhythms." 

Sublime sounds and hypnotic grooves stimulate her being, compelling her to source and mix, creating a micro, minimal, soul-stirring experience she calls astral:house. Those who crave nourishing sonic sessions have followed Katharine’s journey along the Australian East Coast alongside her musical partner Ben Abrahams for over two decades as they’ve influenced the scene with their exciting taste & consistent delivery of stimulating underground house & techno, both in clubs & outdoors. 

Together they created ‘Strange Brew’, an all ages acid-house vinyl party at the Billinudgel Pub, Byron Bay, at which time the infamous 'Shed' was built;  revelling in the Outback for sunset was deliciously surreal, dancing to stripped back house grooves amongst the gum trees. 

They ran eight extremely memorable years of Saturday nights at Elsewhere Bar on the Gold Coast. Katharine played psychedelic house before Ben's killer 5 hour sets, then both joined together for the heaving sweaty early morning hours.  Elsewhere won Best Music for a Club in Australia at the Sydney Bar Music Awards at that time. All vinyl back then.

Katharine had the first of her two children before returning to Melbourne and putting on high-vibe parties at the infamous Killing Time Bar & My Aeon,  always with a tight crew of Australia’s best underground djs.  

Katharine made mixes for Art-E Romania and the Microtechno Podcast series 9 years ago, having long been recognised for her way with intricate sounds, particularly with lovers of micro-house & the Romanian influenced minimal.  She appreciates music which alludes to the transcendent - both gently & powerfully.  As an undeniably charged up being she just keeps on lovingly creating fresh soundtracks for her friends’ lives. Last year she made 21 mixes for amazing collectives around the world, including Half is Enough Romania's Strangers in the Night: each session is an experience. 

Her unique way elevates and deeply satisfies at both sunset & sunrise, and she has played magical closing sets out in the forest, most recently for the Comfort Zone crew on their final day on the main stage by the creek. 

Find her playing at Killing Time Bar, at Motion:Theory parties & for local crews (Subterrania, Synergy, Cable, Over & Mood Pilot), but experience her anytime through the Motion:Theory mix series and the sessions she makes for collectives who appreciate her taste and storytelling ability: 
it’s LUSH MINIMAL for the dancefloor.
