Lavatone - Bruja

I’d been collecting found sounds for a while with the idea of turning them into rhythmic loops and percussive elements. This coincided with finding some isolated vocal tracks from another source, and the basis of the OpenSky track ‘Breathe’ started to take shape. As Pete and I bounced ideas and mixes back and forth, I tried something that took the track in a very different direction.

When I mentioned this to Pete, we hit on the idea of producing our own tracks built around the same sound sources rather than just picking a middle ground to put out as OpenSky, and tie them all thematically with connected titles and artwork

‘Shallow Breath’ is the result of my take on the Breathe starting point, while ‘Deep Breath’ is available under Pete’s S.A.Fred project.

Featuring artwork from Luca Lionello, it touches on ancient mystic ideas and sentiment, attempting the impossible task of touching the sublime through art.

KALEIDOSCOPE

The structure of Malakosha is based on a repetitive textile weave which, on each repetition, is proportionally augmented until it is 24 measures long. Melodic patterns and change within these patterns also follow the structure of the weaving pattern. The work takes its title from the pentatonic Indian raga on which the harmony and tonal range of the music is based. Each section expands by adding more notes to the repetitive melodic patterns. Over the course of the work the role of the "noisy patterns" develops: initially they are in the background and then gradually become part of a louder soundscape with the live instruments.

Performed by Royal Northern Sinfonia, conducted by James Weeks at  CoMA Festival of Contemporary Music for All on 6 March, 2020 at Sage Gateshead, Newcastle, UK.

Recorded by BBC Radio 3:

The work was commissioned by the international contemporary music festival ARS MUSICA (Belgium) and premiered by ENSEMBLE 21, conducted by Marc Collect on 29 November, Brussels.

Malakosha_Royal Northern Sinfonia (The Excerpt)

Electronica / dance / industrial / ambient... a whole load of stuff loosely collected under an umbrella vaguely labelled as 'electronic music' by Maff Evans, who also works as part of OpenSky.
