Deep Breakfast 133 - Polaroid Notes

Artist: V/A
Album: 5
Format: Digital / Tape
Cat.No: CHI042
Master: Justin Randel
Artwork: Saphy Vong
Release Date: 23rd November 2022

Celebrating five years of the experimental music label Chinabot, longtime collaborators and new acts join together for 5, Chinabot’s latest compilation release on cassette and digital.
The 12-track compilation features music from key artists who have defined Chinabot as a label, such as Jaeho Hwang, Sabiwa, Sarah Haras, Ayankoko, JPN Kasai and Pal Hwang Dan. The mix also looks to the future of the label with new artists Nanzhen Yang, Papaphilia, Chooc Ly and more.

Leaning into the label’s experimental tendencies, 5 journeys through fractured club tunes from Papaphilia, the experimental electronic project of queer Sri Lankan-Australian sound and visual artist Fjorn Bastos, hardcore rave from Jaeho Hwang, percussive broken beats and percussive broken beats and cinematic soundscapes from QwentyZ, and Beijing field recordings (described by the artist as “blurred memories”) from Nanzhen Yang.
It continues the hyper-eclectic vision which has become synonymous with the label, which seeks to take risks and promote the work of exciting emerging producers. The record features Ondo footwork from JPN Kasai, whorecently changed his artist name from Jap Kasai following the racist discrimination against a friend in Europe (“‘Jap’ is a derogatory term for Japanese people,” he says. “I used to dare to use it, but I have changed my mind. I don’t want to encourage discrimination against Japanese people.”) Like the compilation, his track, 早苗 唄 hayanae uta, is about the emergence of the new in this case, growth of rice shoots and the “happiness of harvest.”

Growth and experimentation remain key in the track from new Chinabot artist Papaphilia, who is due to release a full album next year. Inspired in part by the voracious learning of her newborn, ‘no path is forged over the abyss without meeting at the altar’ expresses the “leaps into the unknown that forging radical new meaning requires.”

The new compilation, with artwork by Saphy Vong, pays tribute to London’s experimental music scene, showcasing producers Chooc Ly, Yewen Jin and Nanzhen Yang who have performed at Chinabot’s events in the city over the years.

Ambient Daily - Episode 34 - Sudden Light

Not available on Spotify or similar rip-off platforms. Only on Bandcamp and Soundcloud. Hopefully on vinyl one day. 

Now on Bandcamp for €3 or 'pay what you like' digital download:
https://chifactory.bandcamp.com/album/music-from-the-body-of-earth

Recorded on a farm in Rotterdam (Kralingseweg 393). Released on limited cassette in 1987 (100, sold out). Solo recordings by Hanyo van Oosterom (Chi Factory, Son Of Chi) on 4-track cassette (Tascam 234 Syncaset). Originally recorded as sketches for a new CHI album.

All instruments by Hanyo van Oosterom: Roland Juno 60, Ensoniq Mirage sampler, Roland SVC-350 vocoder, damped piano, bells, bass, guitar, bamboo flutes, percussion, field recordings. 

Original final mix by Jurgen Brouwer. Remastered and remixed by Hanyo van Oosterom in 2025. All rights reserved. 

Inspired by the novel 'By The Body Of The Earth' by Satprem. A book of the voyage of the soul, which others call reincarnation, a perpetual story which unfolds itself in three cycles or three lives, three islands which are situated in "this land here or any other", apparently in India, Egypt and the frozen lakes of Norway. 

The main charcter - Nil - always in quest of "something else". A new state upon earth for man, free from mechanism and the laws of the mind, who had cast away all for this, given up the world for that of a mendicant Sannyasin. 

After a long and sometimes hard journey he finally discovers a vaster, cosmic consciousness and new perceptions, but finally he realises that he had perhaps gained the freedom of the heights, but lost the earth.

With those lonely bare branches,
Goodbye kisses of the dropping leaves,
And lonely leaves gathered into heaps,
Street scenes with yellowish tint,
Like it was washed with calmness.
Somehow this season gives solace.

Campfire Stories 70 (The Solace of Water) by Chryslsm

Synthbiont & Anassimandrus is the new ambient/experimental project born at the end of 2018 by the collaboration between Nicolò Faggiani and Tommaso Gobbo. Their musical background comes from different musical experiences as DJs, vinyl collectors, and founders of two web-radios dedicated respectively to electronic music and dub-reggae. Synthbiont & Anassimandrus was developed to research the deepest ambient atmospheres, creating musical journeys where the listener can immerse itself in a parallel sound universe. The idea behind the mixing process is to elaborate different digital and analog sources, editing samples and tracks, and creating a unique soundscape. This way of experiencing music brought them to approach musical realities such as Ozora and Mo:Dem festival, Silent Season record label, and entering in contact with artists such as Mental (Visionary Mind records).

Antifa is my cousin.  I heard some people were looking for her.  Since I like to be helpful when I can, she was in Alexandria last time I talked to her, three weeks ago.  I think she mentioned going to Zurich in the near future.
.
As I understand it a conspiracy is supposed to be secret so please don't tell anyone.

Is it 1984 already?!?!
...

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

...

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.
...

My face and the bike are a courtesy of Joël Vaudreuil
[https://vimeo.com/user8897093]  ... Merci Joe!
I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(
...

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
