Pieces I am singing in

This is a rough rehearsal/run-through of this wonderful work. Enjoy!

"Nocturnes" - Arnold Cooke for french horn, soprano and piano

"When I get asked to do mixes I often take that as an opportunity to put together a selection of my favourite pieces from a specific era, genre or composer. In this case I compiled a number of my favourite Japanese electronic tracks as I have been listening to a lot of that stuff for the past year or so."

Throughout the last decade Ulrich Schnauss has produced three albums which perfectly captured his vision of taking the 90's 'Shoegaze' aesthetic - very uncool at the time as we'll discuss below - and placing it into an electronic context. With the new album 'A Long Way To Fall' Ulrich felt the need to change and explore new avenues. And it's another beauty.

On the 3rd July, German born musician and producer Ulrich Schnauss will play an extra special live A/V show at Electrowerkz. We decided that this was the perfect time to have him create his Ransom Note Mix and we caught up with him to find out a bit more about his background, his mix and his general thought on music;

Text by Timothy Dudley-Smith

Of long ago: yet living still,
who died for us on Calvary's hill;
who triumphed over cross and grave,
his healing hands stretched forth to save.

His sovereign purpose still remains
who rose in power, and lives and reigns;
till every tongue confess his praise,
the healing Christ of all our days.

Of Long Ago

With a seemingly inexhaustable desire to showcase new underground, electronic music our kindred Parisian friends Les Yeux Orange are the go to collective for checking out bleeding edge club sounds. A busy DJ schedule sees them ply this ethos across the live circuit while this year has naturally seen them launch their own label; the second release just out with delectable, Detroit inspired cuts from n.stal. Also worth seeking out is their edit based Good Plus imprint which has found its way into the bags of Hunee and Young Marco

Juju & Jordash are often celebrated for the improvisational prowess of their live shows, but the Amsterdam-based pair has a long history of producing quality records as well. Before the duo's latest EP, 'What About Tuesday?,' arrives via the Dekmantel label on January 16, we debuted the woozy lead cut, "Monday Mellow," on RBMA Radio's First Floor, our weekly look at what's new in electronic music.

What About Tuesday? (DKMNTL043)

Juju & Jordash "Monday Mellow" [First Floor Premiere]

Soprano: Amber Evans 

fac ut ardeat| (2018) was commissioned by Amber Evans and the Cortona Collective for New Music. I met Amber over the summer while at the Cortona Sessions for New Music in Italy, and over the course of the festival became friends and collaborators.

The title, fac ut ardeat|, comes not from the Sabat Mater but instead comes from a description of an inscribed fireplace in Rachel Kushner’s book, The Flamethowers, and roughly translates to, “made to burn.” This idea of violent disposability is integral to the work; as each line of text is sung, each gesture is consumed by a series of live delays and disintegrates each line of text to make room for the following events, leaving behind smoldering remains.

Text:
Let me not grope in vain in the dark
but keep my mind still in the faith
that the day will break
and truth will appear
in its simplicity. 
(From Fireflies by Tagore Rabindranath)

St Tagore's In Faith

Lisa Atkinson (b.1992) is a Chicago-based composer whose work endeavors to explore interiority through the tactile, visceral nature of live-performance and the emotional context of gesture while examining issues of fragility, memory, timbre, time, and perception.
