Living Room n°19 ~ @8salamanda8

q. pls introduce yourselves

> Salamanda is a Seoul-based Leftfield Ambient music producer/DJ duo of Uman Therma (Sala) and Yetsuby (Manda).
Salamanda believes every sound has beauty, and loves to collect and experiment with all kinds of sounds from the world around them.


q. is there a story behind the mix?

> Before working on the mix, we coincidentally saw a picture of one of our favorite artists' living room from a magazine. From the photo, the place seemed very welcoming, cozy, sophisticated and peaceful... and we wondered what it would be like to live there.
So this mix is about our fantasy of having a cup of tea in each of our dream houses on a rainy summer afternoon.


q. what's the best way enjoy your mix?

> On a lazy, a little bit gloomy late morning or early afternoon, grab a hot coffee, get your blanket, turn this mix on, and look out the window.


q. describe a favourite object in your living room...

> Sala's answer: Happy plants.
> Manda's answer: Cat tower.


q. are you working on any projects right now (music or not music)?

> In terms of our release, we had a new release that came out most recently called "Sphere," which you can check out on Métron Records bandcamp or streaming platforms such as Apple Music / iTunes, Spotify and more.
As for other interesting music-related projects, luckily we've been able to work on a series of exciting projects that we really enjoy(ed) being a part of. They will be revealed soon, so please keep your eyes peeled!

Connexions Affectives w/ Johnny Power (06/06/2023)

Our next mix is from Glasgow sound-artist Velvachell, a new solo project by Rachel McDermott of WomenSaid. Her recent installation 'to yourself' at Listen Gallery totally blew us away - an immersive multi-channel environment capturing the frenetic energy of Jilotepec and its neighbouring Mexico City.

The mix uncovers a sonic palette that has informed her sound work. Rachel artfully builds tension through the esoteric murmurs of fragmented vocal drones, distorted field recordings and pensive string instruments. In heightened surroundings, a frenzied energy emerges in the post-punk and industrial sound that has informed her previous work. The diverging of these sounds is totally intoxicating, and captures the potent energy of her exciting new sonic explorations.

Interview & tracklist: https://www.lowendtheorists.com/theory-therapy-mixes/theory-therapy-17-sophia-zhuravkova

The next instalment in the Theory Therapy series comes from a particularly special selector, Russia's Sophia Zhuravkova.

Sophia adores nature and it clearly shines through in all of her work. In what seems like a very short space of time, the composer has established herself as one of the most impressive young ambient artists to emerge from Russia in recent years. In 2020, she captivated us with an appearance on Stay in Bed Vol.2 — released on DJ Earl Grey's Best Effort Records — put out her debut LP Unseen on Prins Emmanuel's excellent Ny Agenda imprint and then gifted us with the expansive Obstacles in October. Like the best ambient producers, her music expertly balances background and foreground. Field recordings — from spoken word and white noise to the soft lapping of waves — intersect with more melodic passages: reverberant drones, diffuse pads and the occasional acoustic instrument. 

The same can be said of her Theory Therapy mix. It replicates the experience of being somewhere special — like the stillness of an empty park or a rainy city sunrise after a night out. Sonically, it is both intimate and immersive; synths, dronescapes and haunting vocals pull you into where it was recorded: in the warm confines of her home during a wintry day in Kiev. So put the kettle on and get comfortable; this is music made to be listened to closely.
