A binaural recording of three tracks from my first 4DSOUND performance - Woven Ancestry, Meadows and Gravity Well.

Woven Ancestry is from the Human LP out now, available from iTunes at www.smarturl.it/MCHuman and on vinyl and CD from bit.ly/FIELDSshop. 

The experience will only work if you listen with headphones, and in a quiet location. Closing your eyes helps. Relax and let yourself naturally build a mental picture of your surroundings based only on what you hear.

ABOUT 4D SOUND

The 4D Sound System was designed and developed in Amsterdam by Paul Oomen, Salvador Breed, Luc Van Weelden and Poul Holleman. It comprises 16 columns with omnidirectional speakers at several heights in each column, and the columns spaced around the room in a 12 x 12 x 4m array.

They have designed Max for Live devices which provide a range of spatial controls within Ableton Live, as well as an accompanying visual 3D model of the space and sounds within it. This allows for a spatial composition/production process, whereby each piece of music is designed as a physical entity to exist within the space, as something that can be walked around inside and explored by the listeners.

The system is called "4D Sound" because it produces sound in all 3 spatial dimensions, as well as being able to move sounds through the space in time - the 4th dimension.

07 - Lake People - The Solution Of The Problem Of Life

notes: 
when traveling through oregon last year i stumbled across this mystic place. the entire landscape was covered in lava. odly enough, quite a few trees had found their way to grow on this rocky ground.  i stopped for quite a while, simply watching this breathtaking landscape, overwhelmed once again by the beauty of nature. 11 artists created a soundworld around this picture of that place. the goal was to capture the feeling evoked by this special landscape. just listen to the result and see for yourself. very deep dub techno - enjoy the tracks. everything is 100 % handcrafted and selfmade.

Hannes Fischer (@hannes-fischer) presents Afterhour Sounds Podcast Nr.165

Unsere heutige Afterhour mit der Nr. 165 kommt von Hannes Fischer, aus „der Bucht unseres Vertrauens“ in Berlin, wo Hannes schon von Beginn an unter den Residents zu finden ist.

Als ich Hannes das erste Mal getroffen habe vor einigen Jahren zu Silvester in der Bucht war es sozusagen love at first sight, musikalisch und menschlich sowieso. Immer gut gelaunt und mit einer Menge Geschichten im Gepäck wird es nie langweilig mit ihm unterwegs zu sein.
Genau so ist es ihm auch möglich mit einem großen musikalischen Repertoir und eigenen Produktionen die verschiedensten Dancefloors mal schnell, mal langsam zum Schwingen zu bringen. So ist er beispielsweise auf der Tankwüste der Fusion, im KaterBlau, Sisyphos, Watergate, Wilde Renate - um nur einige zu nennen - und natürlich regelmäßig in der Bucht anzutreffen.

Mit diesem wunderschönen, fließenden Podcast führt Hannes uns heute durch eine Afterhour zum Träumen, mal groovig treibend, mal melancholisch verspielt.
Danke Hannes für dieses wunderbare Stück Musik das Laune macht! Und euch viel Spaß beim immer wieder hören.

Stay Slow - Mix 2020

I went pretty minimal on this one, no hi-hats, and pretty much no drums actually, just a kick and much later into the track a snare comes in.....There was something about the simple repetitive 2 note melody hits and chords I landed on that just seemed to work without needing anything much else, well hopefully it works for other people too and not just me. It's been going down really well in the clubs at least, it seems to make people clap for some reason, maybe because it's so simple and kick focused rhythmically, it's got a bit of a marching stomp feel.

I stripped out most of the parts from the original, and focused on the great pads and vocal sweeps, which seemed to lead to the melodic idea somehow. It was one of those remixes which flowed nice and easily, not too much conscious thought required, I just let it flow out.

I made an edit of an old video to fit the track too, full details about that on the youtube link:

Nick Warren - Devil's Elbow - Max Cooper Remix (out now)

This track is contained on the Movements EP, where each track is themed by movement through a different medium. The concept I had in mind this time was a summer meadow, with lots of warmth and activity and detail of all natural processes going on, and a feeling of movement though the space. I have no idea how well that idea of mine translates into the piece of music for you, but hopefully it works in some way (your interpretation is more important than my concept really).

Andrew Brewer (Whiskas FX) has made a video for this one with some abstracted meadows combined with moire patterns, it's a beauty!....can't wait to get that out in the next few days.

(This is just a clip of the track btw, if you want the full length version it will be out 1st April!)

Max Cooper - Meadows

Sounds & Spaces 001
Max Cooper - Synesthetes Museum
A mix based on the British Museum
 
Featuring a mix of 12th century Tibetan monks song, one of the first ever recordings of music, made by Thomas Edison on a wax cylinder in 1888, poetic spoken word, 9th century Gregorian Chant, A call to the lama from afar, some unreleased exclusives, 9/8 techno, traditional Chinese music mixed with rude glitch, and a binaural museum.
______________________________________



The brief for this mix was to make something inspired by an architectural space. When I was doing my Post-Doc at UCL I used to go the British Museum to relax, and work in the beautiful library there, so I chose the space for the mix. I wanted to capture the ambient atmosphere in the central courtyard, so I did some binaural recording to include in the mix. I also wanted to make the mix something of an exploration through history and ideas in line with the contents of the museum, so I brought in lots of disparate music spanning the centuries and continents. I also mixed it in a way to be like a journey though the museum, turning corners and regularly coming across something totally different and unexpected, with each track being like a different exhibit. Hence the name of the mix, in that, each piece of music almost has a visual content.

Max Cooper - Synesthetes Museum (free download)

This is the second idea I worked on with Kathrin deBoer for the Conditions Two EP, and an attempt to make something surreal. I tried to use her voice as an instrument in the track, rather than presenting it as a normal vocal at the forefront of the mix. I used lots of Max for Live fiddling’s to mangle up her vocals into all sorts of weird noises, and then picked out some of my favourites to use in the track. Most of the noises that aren’t the drums and main synths, so pretty much all the weird noises in the track, are made from Kathrin’s voice.



The overall feeling was something soft and organic, where in addition to the unpredictability and non-loopy manner of the vocal effects, the drums also follow a loose and slightly randomised pattern, with lots of shuffle to add to the free feeling. I thought the approach made it end up sounding a bit maddening and messy, and there was also a strong feeling of space in there with the main pads, so this combined with the surrealist approach lead me to the name ‘Falling Into Recursive Space’.

A deep, melodic rabbit hole of a mini set, made on a lazy, grey, gloomy winter Sunday morning in Brooklyn. Enjoy :) <3

Sunday Morning Moody

Ahhhh yes! I can't even put into words how grateful I am that I channeled this into existence! 

One thing positive about our current state of affairs, for any artist, is that it provides us with a great deal of artistic time to create. 

Recently, i've been using this time wisely, and in doing so, this one turned out really nice! It's super deep and sexy with a beautiful hybrid- fusion of multidimensional bass-centric, deep-tech- electronica, imbued with cosmic, etheric, psychedelic, hypnotic underground beats! 

This is truly a journey and ride worth delving into. In my opinion, it really provides you with the true essence and soul of global dance culture. But hey, I'm pretty biased for saying all this due to the fact that I created it therefore, don't take my word for it... you'll just have to listen for yourself.  

I would like to take this opportunity to pay my respects to Treavor Moontribe & Amani Friend of Desert Dwellers. The last portion of this mix has a few of their tracks from their new Breath Re-Imagined Vol. 3 which added a really sweet ending to the experience. These brothers are simply top notch artist - producers and they did such a beautiful job producing that album. Thank you so much for sharing your medicine and gifts with us gentlemen. I am always so impressed with your amazing talents. 

Ok... the voyage starts now!

Max Cooper is an electronic composer, multi-disciplinary artist, music label founder and former scientist who has carved out a unique space in music and visual art.

He holds a PhD in computational biology at the same time as being the first contemporary electronic musician to perform at the ancient Acropolis theatre in Athens and one of the first clutch of musicians to produce in Dolby Atmos.

Cooper has enquired for over 15 years through music, collaborations, and his label Mesh, to explore the intersections between the arts and sciences with installations, performances, immersive experiences, online media, music videos and live events.  Anchored throughout is his emotive approach, connecting how ideas and forms feel, in a manner accessible to us all. 
 
As an artist synonymous with the evolution of club culture, Cooper honed his craft as a DJ with a 10 year residency at legendary Midlands techno event Firefly where he formed a foundational relationship with Architecture Social Club, with whom he still collaborates on extravagant immersive installations.

"I want to encourage the acceptance of electronic music as an art form like any other. Bringing electronic music and abstract audio-visual projects into concert halls, museums and galleries is liberating - the art world opens up doors to communicate in ways that aren’t possible elsewhere."
  
Pivoting from computational biology to electronic music might not seem like the most natural career transition, but for Cooper the commonalities are obvious:
 
"In both fields, you're in a sense, free. Free from the limits of living systems, free from the limits of corporeal sound. The only constraints are in your mind."
