An exclusive track from @mariedavidson_official ahead of her live sets at Sónar Lisboa (22/04) and Sónar 2024 (14/06). Here's what she has to say about it: 

"Ahead of the release of my single 'Y.A.A.M.' next week on Deewee, here's a live track recorded in one take that captures the energy of my new live show. It’s a celebration of the raw sound of hardware combined with heavy sampling. The vocals are from the movie The Fog by John Carpenter, plus additional recordings of my own voice made on my phone, all chopped up with my sampler. Can you can figure out who’s talking when?!"

Production by Marie Davidson 

Mixing & additional production by Pierre Guerineau

Mastering by Conor Dalton

Marie Davidson - Weird Ride

Earthy, physical rhythms meet experimental sonics on SonarMix 037, which moves from hyperlocal strains of baile funk to hyperreal techno. Galician artist Akazie channels "anger, tenderness, closeness and distance" on a recording made " at a time of great global anger and impotence."

Final Recital Electroacoustic Drum Improvisation in 2020

Endless-Improvised-Drumming-1 by a Human Drummer

Endless-Improvised-Drumming-1

The SonarPremieres season for 2019 kicks off with this remix from DJ Tennis taken from Max Cooper's upcoming Reflex EP.

Taken from Max Cooper's album ‘One Hundred Billion Sparks’, Reflex sonically expresses the feelings of the artist to scintillating effect. On the title track squelching synths and rhythms pulse but also morph with filtered bass patterns, before intricate hats and raucous snares are introduced to climactic effect. 
DJ Tennis and Barratt join forces for the remix, transforming the forceful pulses and percussive elements of ‘Reflex’ into a lighter affair, which swells and subsides in a playful interpretation of the original.

Max Cooper and DJ Tennis will both be playing Sónar Barcelona 18.19.20. July 2019. For more info and tickets head to www.sonar.es
