Unless Machinedrum did edit this live set, where the hell is it?

10 years passed but it's still an unforgetable track

While Los Angeles mixed-media artist Celia Hollander is preparing her full-length album drop for Q2, Leaving Records presents the first tease from forthcoming Timekeeper.
_
Timekeeper is a collection of temporal impressions. Each track is entitled with a time of day, mapping the ways that changes in energy and emotion form a continuously shifting sense of time. Using a palette of acoustic recordings and digital synthesis, each piece depicts either a temporal field (expansive, unpredictable), wave (swelling momentums) or rope (singular linearity).

New York based percussionist and composer Eli Keszler is set to release his new album Icons on June 25 via LuckyMe. Icons is an immersive work in perpetual motion, evoking a glorious and dystopian western world. Known as a frequent collaborator to Oneohtrix Point Never, Laurel Halo, Kevin Beasley, and Rashad Becker, Keszler’s latest solo venture offers up a latticework of melodic percussion, drum set, and electro-acoustic instrumentation, built upon fragments of American abstraction, ancient scales, industrial percussion, and jazz-age film noir to achieve its feeling of imperial decay. Keszler’s instrumental performances are framed by panoramic recordings of New York City and the Odyssey Cave, along with other on-location audio from his global travels, defining an expansive music that takes on hyperreal forms difficult to describe outside of the loss and wonderment that defines our age.

“Icons is the music I made during a time where travel and trade were effectively suspended,” states Keszler. “I spent nights wandering around Manhattan collecting recordings of the empty and silent city where a car alarm was audible from blocks away, where the hum of the electrical grid and the clash of bicycle gears suddenly occupied a massive amount of space. I spent the entirety of that year in Manhattan, probably the longest I’ve stayed in one place in over a decade. The island was essentially shut down and running at an erratic pace. The speed of the city seemed to oscillate from intense speed - ambulances, protests, helicopters —  to near stasis — a sort of beautiful, strange, serene stillness. I saw something strange and beautiful happening: power cracking and people changing. With Icons, I was working with these mythological tropes that are deteriorating and decaying before our eyes to create a music that finds beauty in our fragile and unstable reality. 

Keszler has released music on Shelter Press, Empty Editions, ESP Disk and PAN. His 2018 album Stadium was awarded Boomkat’s Album Of The Year.  Most recently, Keszler wrote the original score to Dasha Nekrasova’s feature The Scary of Sixty First (which made its recent premiere at Berlin Film Festival) and contributed to Daniel Lopatin's original score for Josh and Benny Safdie's Uncut Gems. Keszler’s music, installation, and visual work have appeared at the Whitney Museum, Lincoln Center, MIT List Center, Victoria & Albert Museum, Sculpture Center, The Kitchen, South London Gallery, Hessel Museum, Harvard's Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, Luma-Foundation, Barbican, Walker Art Center, and MoMA PS1.

I've always been a massive fan of Boards of Canada, if its not obvious already!  10-11 years ago I stumbled upon a bootleg recording of one of their extremely rare live performances at the Warp 10 Birthday party in 1999.  The closing tune at this show has always remained a mystery to me.  As far as I know it has no title and has never been released.  It's quite possibly one of my favorite things they have done and really is a shame it never came out.  You can hear the original bootleg recording (quite bad quality) here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYEZueAelKc

Fast forward to Summer 2012...  Since I am a huge nerd I decided to take this bootleg recording and re-produce it for fun.  Using the recording I laid new drums over the existing drum patterns (almost 100% accurate to original), replayed some synth parts and the bassline.  The only thing I didn't try to re-create was the original vocoder parts and some random samples so I used the bootleg recording for that.  I was tempted to make a shorter 4-5 minute version but I figured I should preserve the piece in its intended length (although the length was most likely due to it being a live jam).

Downloads limited to 100 (sorry I still haven't upgraded my account).  I do not claim rights to the original nor do I intend to ever sell this.  Not sure if I'm violating anything or not with Soundcloud so grab it quick!

Update : Ha! Somehow the 100 download limit thing got bypassed, so download freely!
Updated Update : This should work! http://soundcloud.com/selftitledmag/boards-of-canada-untitled/download

As “Black Lives Matter” stops trending and the world prepares itself to return to normality, those directly affected will need our ongoing support to deal with the psychological impact of racism and global anti-blackness. During the last few months, in the U.K., U.S. and further afield, Covid-19 and the protests addressing the ongoing Police Brutality and systematic racism has once again drawn our attention to the healthcare disparities Black people face on a daily basis.

Currently, Black people are bearing the burden of the collective trauma as a result of the racism experienced within every facet of their lives, with very little appropriate support being offered. As our attention is drawn towards racist violence and the constant witnessing of public executions of members of the community by those sworn in to protect them, the need for specialist care is more pressing than ever. This includes the erasure of the violence targeted towards Black Trans Women.

The continuous gaslighting by various governments and those in power who refuse to address the core of this issue, has made it systematically near impossible to engage with national mental health services. Although racism cannot be dismantled overnight, we can support Black people by ensuring that their mental health is prioritised by services that are well equipped to take into account the specific needs of various Black communities and individuals.

This compilation - “Music in Support of Black Mental Health” - will split the proceeds from the release between five charities based in the U.K. and the U.S. “Nilaari”, a charity based in Bristol, focuses on community based mental health support for BAME in the city. With various services for different age groups, genders and Asylum Seekers and Refugees, their aim is to provide culturally sensitive sessions to listen, heal and build resilience. “Black Thrive”, based in Lambeth in London - historically one of the most targeted areas in the U.K. government - by prioritising the local Black community through projects tackling unemployment due to long term health conditions, school exclusions (often a directly linked to the School to Prison pipeline), Vascular Dementia and the Black LGBTQIA+ community.

In the U.S., “The Loveland Foundation” provides therapy for Black Women and Girls across the country with fellowships, residency programmes and listening tours committed to empowering and liberating the communities they support. Based in both Vermont and California, “BEAM” is a collective of advocates, yoga teachers, therapists, lawyers and artists committed to removing the barriers to Black healing. Affirming the value of all Black lives, including those differently abled individuals and the LGBT+ community, a variety of approaches is used alongside addressing the inequities within the criminal legal system. The “National Queer & Trans Therapists of Colour Network” is a healing justice organisation committed to transforming mental health for queer and trans people of colour who disproportionately are affected by systematic violence.

With Black culture influencing electronic music from its genesis, this compilation celebrates and draws on a wealth of talent across electronic genres. 28 producers and musicians have offered their support through donated music and compositions, and each Black contributor has been paid for their work. All proceeds will be split evenly between “Nilaari”, “Black Thrive”, “The Loveland Foundation”, “BEAM” and “National Queer & Trans Therapists of Colour Network”.
