8. Sanders/Sanger - Anti-Gravity Sound Vortex

I recently re-discovered this in my archives, recorded two years ago before my set at CPH Jazz Festival. 
When the song was recorded, it came from an intense feeling of being worn-out from doing Cultural event-work through Diode Culture. 

Our cancelled cultural and social lives, has induced a feeling of restlessness and frustration, but also a possibility for peaceful introspection, that is unique to our current, common situation. 
It gives us the opportunity to see ourselves from the outside, and what mode and values, one has been cultivating. 

The temporal shift between the creation of the song and it's release, counts so many events, that lead up the surrealistic situation we're in today. 
Because of this, I decided to release this song now, with it's original project-title. 
I hope it can serve as a cross-temporal statement, reaching into the pandemic, from a time that had it's tribulations too.

DR-69 : PORYA HATAMI - Kani + Remixes (incl. Darren McClure, Purl, Arovane, Tomotsugu Nakamura, Sven Laux) 

Originally released in 2013 on the Inner Ocean label, Porya Hatami’s “Kani” was a four track EP showcasing his intimate take on modern ambient music. The Iranian artist has issued a large number of albums that imbue pastoral ambient with subtle field recordings and melodies. The melodic aspect of Hatami’s work took centre stage in this release, and shone bright across the four pieces.

So now, seven years later, “Kani” is being given the reissue that it deserves, and will delight those listeners new to it, and those who are rediscovering it again. Besides the original four tracks, there are an additional five remixes by artists working in a similar orbit to Hatami, and some who have collaborated directly with him in the past.

These reworks cover plenty of ground, reimagining the source material into new shapes. Some remixes extend the foggy soundscapes and conjure delicate melodic plucks. Others add mellow pulses that infer rhythm under the washes of sound, while others take these rhythmic ideas much further.

PORYA HATAMI - Kani (night) (Arovane Remix)

For a long time I have been wanting to record the sound of a passing train with contact mics - with the Geofon it was quite easy - I just stuck it to the track with the magnet until the train passed - actually two trains a few minutes apart. In-between the trains you can hear the track shift to allow the second train coming from the opposite direction.
I must say I'm a little disappointed with the sound. I thought it would be much more energetic and wild. It sounds a bit like the ambient sound you hear standing next to a track with a train approaching...
If you look closely you can see the Geofon's grey wire next to the orange ones

Light as Memory is a subtle look into a memory.

Light as Memory

Swedish pianist, Henrik Lindstrand is due to release his third solo album, and I've got an exclusive track premiere for you today! Nordhem is a finale in a trilogy of Leken (2017) and Nattresan (2019), released on One Little Indian Records. I suppose now is a good time to mention that the label's owner, Derek Birkett, has recently changed the imprint's name to One Little Independent in light of a fan letter that outlined why the name and the logo are offensive to the Indigenous People culture. So while OLI has recognized and adjusted its image, the music it spreads through the world is unchanged. The album, and indeed this single, conveys a very innocent and emotional message, through melancholy storytelling that rides the waves of sorrow and joy, mystery and honesty, minor and major chords. It's a beautiful short tune that carries its dialogue through a reticent melody, and I could even see myself playing it in the dark. "Lindstrand communicates emotions through a soothing and intimate universe that seamlessly blends genres into his own ecosystem of sounds from the piano. 'Stora Huset' uses exquisite and elegant simplicity to recall summers spent at a countryside mansion where his mother lived, decorated with moose antlers from a bygone era." I'd love to draw your attention to the entire new album [and the whole trilogy], but for now, here's the track!
