Augmented field recording from the sonically perfumed entrance area of a balinese themed love hotel in the amusement district of Shinjuku, Tokyo. Steamy fountains and pseudo balinesean muzak in between artificial rock walls, further infused with fake(?) amphibians and slowed down aquatic garden ornaments.

Chantal Michelle continues her sound explorations with 66 Rue L, a fascinating composition for piano, field recordings, saxophones and tin drum, collaborating closely with legendary Mexican instrumentalist and improviser Germán Bringas. Split into three movements, 66 Rue L traces a sonic pathway on which reverberant piano, Bringas’s saxophone and resonant field recordings intertwine to soporific, transportive effect. Close to 30 minutes in length, the composition traverses between calming and unsettling passages, as Michelle toys with the listeners’ perceptions and expectations, expertly steering the piece into unexpected territories. 66 Rue L follows Chantal Michelle’s solo releases for Quiet Time, Dinzu Artefacts and Somewhere Press and an album made with Brian Allen Simon as Pétra for Injazero Records.

The intricate sonic activity behind 'Live at default' testifies to Francesco Corvi's recent post-acousmatic practice. Intense multi-layered textures and rich synthetic soundscapes are fused with micro-sounds. Highly detailed digital noise is made warm and enchanting by the live performance and ambience recordings, and reaches its best character on magnetic tape.

"In my practice software is not conceived as an instrument, neither as a virtual agent, but rather as a dynamic network of interconnected components that exhibit emergent properties by monitoring their own behavior, adapt to changes and alter their own structure. Immersed in this ecosystem of sonic processes, I shape the unfolding of the performance by modifying the software on stage and responding to its behavior. This peculiar form of improvisation possesses a unique performative idiom that cannot be reduced to bodily gestures or human intentions, as the sonic activity itself becomes the medium for conveying the liveness of the performance. This release focuses on how such a feeling of liveness might be translated into a record, placing particular attention on the capturing of the acoustic space of the concert hall and the additional layer of meaning it creates."

Francesco Corvi (aka nesso) is a performer, composer, and multimedia artist. He works with custom digital technologies including live coding environments, adaptive systems, and spatial audio engines,
creating shows at the intersection of computer music, new media art, and deconstructed club. He released music on Superpang, Kaer'Uiks, Genot Centre, HEEL.ZONE, Mossa records, Riforma.

Artist: Serena (BIO)
Amsterdam-based artist Serena shapes morphing atmospheres consisting of a bold and unexpected fusion of aggressive noise with atmospheric musical elements, dubby loops, distorted guitars and harsh vocals. Serena, founder of SUBURBIA, Tbilisi's Mutant Radio collaborator and member of Garage Noord, dives into the past to recall old traditions and its ghosts of a lost time to create new non-linear narratives.
# 1 Insects. I feel them.
I hear them, everytime I look at her, side-eying her profile. A sound like the relentless whir of an electric lamp or the distant noise of a broken radio. It fills my ear and I can't ignore it. Like tinnitus, it drowns out everything else.
But when she catches me secretly staring, she gives me that perfect smile, signed by the little shining pearls of her teeth.
Her Perfect body eases my anxious mind. She covered me in tender kisses, gave me dazzling pleasure, with the quivering warmth of her insides.
I am under her spell.
But this time, what a pity. Why can't I ignore that small dot at the corner of her blue eye? I take her hand and she comes closer, like a groom to his bride at the altar.
This dot becomes my only fixation. I stare at it with transfixed intent. It begins to move. From that singular point in the white of her eye it pushes against her eyelid. I can't look away. First I notice a transparent wing, and then another, a head and the tiny hairs that shimmer on that fly’s filthy thorax.
The bug hesitates, flexes its wings, rubs its mandibles and flies away.
I look at the love of my life. With her beautiful golden hair. My hands follow the line of her body as I take solace in the delicate shape of her neck. She never stops smiling.
As my hands wrap around her elegant neck, I begin to squeeze .
Her blue eyes now tainted with red, her red lips now tainted with blue, her gentle body begins to shake and tremble, as the light of her life begins to leave her.
Then nothing.
Finally, silence.
A quiet, colossal, deafening silence.
Like a dark wave on cold seas, tenuous, subtle, plain, and then suddenly high, dangerous and roaring, the cacophonous hum rises. As her dead mouth breaches open, a million bugs storm out: flies and wasps, beetles and centipedes, scarabs, cockroaches, ticks, ants, spiders and worms.

 They surround me. They envelop me, they enter me. I have never stopped feeling her love.
