Calm & Steady series

- short tracks
- dance music

All were uploaded after 08/2020, mostly in Fall, with the following exception:
. . - BeWith "Azul v1"(#20):  6 years ago,
. . - Leaving Rec (Matthewdavid)(#17):  between 12 and 23 months ago,
. . - NDULÉ (Mwana Moon - DEBUT)(#2):  9 months ago.

The other series (short tracks) so far are:
- "Hard-Fast-or-Nasty" (more intense/abrasive)
- "MiddleLane", and "Superdance" (the middle, or ambivalence)
- "Funky-Dub-Trap" (self explanatory)
- "Fantaisies" (for professional dancers only)
- "Minimal"
- "Dark"
- "BreakB-Jungle-DnB"

There is little overlap between them, mostly between: *
. . A) MiddleLane, Superdance
and
. . B) all other series

* Increasingly there is some overlap between "Calm & Steady" and "Funky-Dub-Trap", and between a bunch of others (Dark, Minimal, ...). I'm trying to keep it to the minimum, the overlap, tracks finding themselves in more than one playlist.

Psalm//Trees - neighbourhood [premiere]

BUY HERE: www.seance-centre.com/shop/smokey-ha…unka-ma-kwacha

There is music that falls right into place, a perfectly articulated expression of a few distinct influences. Then, there is another kind of median music, something more mysterious, the result of time, place, technology, and alchemy. Zambian writer and musician Smokey Haangala’s Aunka Ma Kwacha (The Money is Gone) released in 1976 is an example of this more mystical metallurgy, falling somewhere between psychedelic Zamrock, US folk, Kalindula, and Sundown Beat (music played after dark) from Tongaland. The unique mix of languages on the album (Bemba, Tonga, Lozi, and English) also suggest this complex cultural crossroads. Underlying the whole album is the insistent beat of a simple drum machine, which was totally unheard of in Zambia at the time, and parallels pioneering experiments by Francis Bebey, Sly Stone, and Shuggie Otis, utilizing a technology which would later come to define dance music. Then there’s the album’s original artwork by Peter Kependa, done in style similar to the infamous Jamaican dancehall illustratorWilfred Limonious, interpreting the album’s title and primary theme; the burden of financial inequality. In this sense the album is political, but the theme is extrapolated and explored through its impact on personal life; love, marriage, social status, and diet. The album is full of cautionary tales, folklore and references to magic, aspects of Zambian culture simultaneously mystifying and alluring to outsiders, part of what attracted Western readers to Nigerian writer Amos Tutuola’s hallucinatory Yoruba folktales. After becoming a household name in Zambia for his music, writing, and television appearances, Smokey Haangala died at the age of 38, the very week his book The Black Eye was published, abruptly ending his brilliant and ascending career. We are lucky to have his inimitable work to remember him by, Aunka Ma Kwacha resting comfortably in the pantheon of re-visionary works by Rodriguez, Kissoon Ramasar, TJ Hustler, and William Onyeabor. There will always be some flowers for your grave, Smokey.

Seiho - Triangle

Matthewdavid - Flute Trap

2020年制作。
「薄明光線」と呼ばれる自然現象を音楽にした。過去に見た記憶があるが、あの現象は何て言うんだろう？急に気になって調べることに。太陽の姿は雲に隠れているが、光が雲の隙間からこぼれていて、多方向に光がさしている状態。それを急に思い出したきっかけは、よく分からないけど。聴いてくれた人の頭の中に「絵」が浮かぶといいなぁと思っています。今回から新しいマイクプリアンプを使うことになった。「Manley Force」4チャンネルのチューブマイクプリアンプ。ずいぶん前から、複数のチャンネルでの録音をやってみたいと思っていた。特にソロギターの時に。やってみたい事があるのに、できる状態に無かったのでモヤモヤ感が強かった。これで、ちょいとストレスが軽減されました。ベースはライン録りですが、2チャンネルで録音して混ぜた。ベース→Aguilar（ベースプリアンプ）→UAD 610→Interface。それと、ベース→Aguilar→UAD 610(Thru Out)→Manley Foce。DIとしてはUADの方が好きかな。艶というか鮮明さがあって、前に押し出すような感じがある。マイクプリアンプとしてはManleyの方がワイドレンジで音の鮮明さがあって好きかな。そんなわけで、ベース用IDとマイクプリアンプとしてのManleyで使い分けると思います。…..今のところの感想だけど！今月は、この1曲だけかなぁ。マイクプリアンプのテストとか、色々とやっていたら時間がなくなってきたー。曲そのものは…まぁ…リラックスして聴いてもらえたら嬉しいです。ちなみに、曲の中で鳴っているパーカッションはギターのボディを叩く音です。それにしてもアコギのマイク録りは…やっぱり難しいな。
