Art flourishes when the freedom, flow and creativity intersect. Often a direct response to resistance, art transcends borders and the physical to allow transmission of the soul; emotion and consciousness. Be Yōkai, a collaborative project between three artists, represents these core values uniting music with art and the moving picture. At the convergent point between these three disciplines we find Be Yōkai, driven by rhythm and vibration, while delivering progressive, transcendent visual stimulation.

In this free zone they flourish, as their art flows out of them without a hint of resistance. It’s the kind of freedom that many artists strive to achieve with no pressure, no deadlines and no strict briefs to uphold. The notion of trust, encouragement, confidence in one’s approach is what we find with Be Yōkai. All three men have known each other for over a decade, and worked closely together during that time on several occasions. This foundation keeps their relationship strong and provides a comfortable layer upon which they are building an intriguing project.

Sebastian Mullaert, Douglas Holmquist and illustrator/animator Kristofer Ström are the three creative wonders who stand behind Be Yōkai. Each member of the trio has a longstanding relationship with their particular skill, as well as each other.

Sebastian’s musical endeavours have taken him around the world, both as a solo practioner and in the duo known as Minilogue, among other projects. Douglas an accomplished composer for film animations, advertisements and video games, as well as making club music. Kristofer, a world-renowned illustrator and animation specialist, who is also adept when it comes to making music.

From the very beginning, the group have worked in an unplanned, natural, organic way, exchanging music and visuals with each member contributing to the progress of each track and accompanying video. It’s a project that acts as its own catalyst, as the three artists contribute their respective talents to the final product, bit by bit, without having a defined goal or target.

In this way they allow for a smooth flow in their production process, which is crucial to their ideals. This is not a ‘hit-making machine’, nor is it a project that has any pre-conceived ambitions towards “success”. All three men agree that Be Yōkai represents an organic, intermittent working process that is not bound by the constraints of future pressures. With Be Yōkai the three men have a space to inspire one another and to be liberated from target-based composition.

It is the only way they can operate, with three separate lives and careers, they have to consider the dynamic and unpredictable flow of life itself. Attempting to control this wild beast is futile, so they work on the project as and when possible. Eventually there is the hope of taking Be Yōkai to the stage, for a concert style performance with live instrumentation accompanied by Kristofer’s mind-boggling visuals. This is something all three artists agree on, but it’s not something they are desperate for. It will happen, all in good time, as everything will if you trust enough in the power of being…

Be Yōkai - FaceTwist [Space Hardware 2016]

The fourth chapter of The Golden Ravedays saga will be released on Hippie Dance in April 2017. Number 4 of the series introduces two further tracks of the sound adventure that Superpitcher is taking us on this year. Side A features Blood and Berry. It is a captivating track that reminds one of the very first years when Superpitcher made music under the alias Sir Positive. The beat is broken and the going is slow and rolling and the listening is a warm bath. There are flutes there that one never wants to stop and they almost don’t. However essentially sweet this track is, like a berry on the tongue, it might lead to some blood on the dance floor!

Listening to Side B of this Golden Ravedays edition is entering a ghost town, alone, under a full moon. Howl is a confluence of melodies and rhythms from Africa to Arabia where the snakes are being charmed out of their baskets and it is downright creepy. A spooky voice is saying something but we don’t know what exactly and it is bothersome because deep down we know that tonight when we are alone in the dark, we should be ready with the answer – or else. All we can do is wonder: Did Superpitcher sell his soul to the vampires for the vocals he let lose in this track? He answers by howling at the full moon behind thorn trees, in the shadows. Entertaining, thoughtful and brave! We salute the wolves and their master. Hooo-oooowl!

Exclusive TB 'Unskinny Dub'

'Future Sounds of Jazz' is one of the most relevant, most artsy, most forward thinking compilation series from the house of Compost as it has defined the term 'future jazz' ever since its first release back in 1995. With the release of 'Future Sounds of Jazz 14' the compilation series breaks new ground as it is compiled by Compost befriended artists and Permanent Vacation-label heads Benjamin Fröhlich and Tom Bioly, who displace Michael Reinboth, who had brought the compilation to fame. 'Future Sounds of Jazz 14' consists out of 28 tracks including three exclusives, one by Tom Bioly alias TB himself. 'Unskinny Dub' is the title of Bioly's compilation contribution and nominally refers to him seeing a stranger wearing a tee with that print. It's the little details that Bioly pays attention to in his everyday life, when compiling music, when working on projects that separates him from others. The track-affix 'Dub' is owned to the fact that the FSOJ-exclusive is instrumental only. A few days before the official release Torture the Artist caught up with Tom Bioly to deeply talk about the compilation and the footsteps Michael Reinboth has left.

'Future Sounds of Jazz 14' compiled by Tom Bioly (TB) and Benjamin Fröhlich will be released September 7th, 2018 on Compost.

Who is Boelja? Who is Sebastian Mullaert? Who are they really? Are they the finite body and a collection of thoughts? And who are you? Are you your memories or perhaps your projections of the future? Or are you this present moment?

What is silence? Is it solely the absence of sound? Or are all sounds springing out of silence and falls back into the same? And what is sound without context? Is it just nonsense? Or is there something more universal to it?

Where did the second vinyl go? Is it sitting in an attic or warehouse somewhere waiting to be discovered? Is it being played as you are reading this? Is all of this just a game? Are YOU being played?

Did someone make this music or did the music just happen? Where does the process of creation start? Where does it end? And who is the listener? How does the listener affect the music? Is there really any separation between the creator, listener and the music? Are they all one and the same?

What is next? Where is all this going?Is there an end? Or are your actions just another event happening in this never-ending stream of consciousness? And to whom is it happening?

Bio:
A serious career in producing electronic music almost always starts in a club: everyone knows the story of his first night out at some legendary place, sometimes behind the turntables, more often than not in front of them. Everybody remembers how this sound hit him for the first time, how the doors to the paradise of the steady bassdrum opened. The hero of our story found its initiation at Aufschwung Ost, famous predecessor to the fabulous Stammheim Kassel, which may be defunct but still resides as referential limbo in the hearts of many. However, music hasn't been a stranger for the then 16 years old Martin: already the first portable radio was manipulated for the first steps towards sampling, the belt-driven turntables were scratched to death and the amiga 500 gobbed primal hip hop beats. Although nothing of this sounded like Public Enemy or A Tribe Called Quest it still sufficed to make the young apprentice's mouth water. Then Techno came along with its massive impact, followed by the first shaky dj gig in front of a real crowd at Aufschwung Ost, the first Akai sampler, the first Atari computer, the first field recording, the first loops on 123 BPM, finally the movement to Cologne, being a techno stronghold back then. It's a near classic biography for Martin Beume who has grown to become one respected producer and DJ, but without the attitude. He prefers to stay in the background and lets the music take the center stage. But he who inhales the groove has to exhale at some point too, so Martin's first demo tracks landed at Sub Static, where he released two EP's under his monicker Golden Red. Both featured chopped up funk with a warm-hearted flavour and rank amongst the classics of the label. With Pawas, Martin found a kindred spirit to produce some great tracks for Adam Kroll's Squonk outlet or the people at Brut. That's also the point where Martin found the guts to embark on a solo career under his civic name, which has been a wise decision as the first 12“ on Outils Du Connaisseur arrestingly shows.
