Mesh Mix Series

Mesh Series 016: Kinn

A curated series where we commission artists to make an hour long mix of whatever inspires them to experiment, produce, and what they listen to.

The mix extracts highlights from Kinn's debut album, Anamnesis Landscape, and expands on his favoured themes and aesthetics of the macabre, presented at times with a tongue in cheek “Dread turned up all the way to 11” fashion.

Using extracts of dialogue, these fragmented conversations evoke a subjective narrative, each monologue lingers in the imagination of the listener as they are juxtaposed or mirrored by the brooding drones and fleeting moments of respite. Thanks again to Kinn for contributing to this months series. 

Words about artwork
"Jack Aldridge (who took the photo) is one of my oldest friends, someone I haven’t seen in person in a very long time due to the pandemic. For this reason I asked him to work with me on “something” around the same time this mix for Mesh came about Whilst I was putting the final touches to the mix I asked him to send over a few photos, without any context, I was just interested to catch up with what he was working on, out of the few dozen photos he sent I became transfixed on this image, the content has no immediate grand concept and yet it’s ambiguity had possessed me. Listening through the finished mix now, the sound and the image have become one, the narrative they evoke together
is expansive and personable, I would hope this is an expectation of listeners of my chin-stroke-type-beat music anyway, to sit and stare into space and let their mind wander, perhaps to places they wouldn’t normally be comfortable to explore" - Kinn

Kinn's Anamnesis Landscape is out now on black as night 12” Vinyl and Digital with First Light Records.

Mesh Series 016: Kinn

https://9128live.bandcamp.com/album/session-one

The inaugural 9128.live label release comes from the UK’s https://soundcloud.com/werkhouse and https://soundcloud.com/hilaryrobinson, featuring subtle, harmonic drones and manipulated piano, originally aired as part of the duo’s set for the CALMA (Madrid) takeover on 9128.live, April 2021.

Jo Johnson was a guitarist with punk band Huggy Bear in the 90s, inspired by and aligned with the riot grrrl and queercore movements. She organised underground techno parties with Bleep43 in the early 2000s and founded the crew’s label. Since 2012 she has explored experimental, minimalist music and her debut LP Weaving was released on Further Records in 2014.

After a classical training with composers including Kaija Saariaho, London-based composer, pianist and sometime vocalist Hilary Robinson is active across genres from contemporary classical concert music to experimental. Her music has been performed at festivals such as the UK’s 'Music We’d Like to Hear' and broadcast on BBC Radio.

The 9128 label aims to document significant live performances by artists that previously performed on the 9128.live platform. With recordings initially created for a singular collective listening moment, and often as part of a festival or takeover weekend, label recordings will re-present this music for further listening across various formats that best suit each release.

Jo Johnson & Hilary Robinson - Session One (9128-1) [Preview]

Mesh Series 001: Voltereta 

A curated series where we commission artists to make an hour long mix of whatever inspires them to experiment, produce, play out and what they listen to.  
 
Voltereta [Feli Navarro] originally from Barecelona, is based in the south of Spain in Cadiz, he creates and explores fields of electronic music, digital art and performance. His formative years were spent studying at the Music Technology Group in Barcelona followed by performing at La Biennale di Venezia with the Galata Electroacoustic Orchestra. He is currently a researcher and collaborator at Universitat Pompeu Fabra (Barcelona)
 
Being a lover of thorough production, Voltereta brings the potency of melodic techno together with the depth of ambient and sound art, crafting a fluid and eclectic style of dense atmospheres that invite dancing and introspection. After ’Castigo Al Mar’ (Traum Schallplatten, 2015) and his EP ’Cabezas Bien Altas’ (Sr. Nadie Subcultura Recordings, 2016) he focused on creating visuals, collaborations with other artists and, step by step, recording his new album ‘Nubla’ (Làdeli Editions, 2020).
 
Due to his fascination with the evocativeness of electronic music, the narrative component always plays an important role in his releases. Memory and dreams, the dialogue between digital technology and nature, the ideas of dystopia and utopia or the meaning of home, have played a role in shaping his discography.
 
The artwork was chosen by the artist, some words below:
"Some months ago I commissioned the artwork for my new album Nubla to Rob Clouth. We ended up having a collection of really nice computer-generated artworks made with a custom software developed by Rob. I've chosen this one because I think it represents how the mix goes, something that looks organic but it's been digitally generated, that can resemble a peaceful picture taken in nature but it also contains darkness and some sort of void and uncertainty"

Mesh Series 002: Cosmin TRG 

A curated series where we commission artists to make an hour long mix of whatever inspires them to experiment, produce, play out and what they listen to.

The artwork was chosen by the artist, some words below:
I painted this sometime around 2014, ironically during a period of self-imposed isolation when I wanted to express myself through a different medium. It’s called “Cible” (French for “target”).

As a producer, DJ & label owner Cosmin Nicolae’s dedication to developing a rich and wholly personal artistic landscape provides the driving force behind one of dance music’s most unique & industrious individuals. 

Opening the door on Hessle Audio over a decade ago - an outlet that has gone on to become a defining voice within electronic music in the 21st Century, Nicolae’s list of affiliations reads like a who’s who of top tier contemporary dance music record labels. Appearances on Amsterdam’s Rush Hour and Gerd Janson’s Running Back, as well as a brace of singles alongside LP’s Gordian and Simulat on the now defunct 50 Weapons - not to mention work for Semantica and Bleep, have cemented Cosmin TRG deep in the psyche of the ever shifting amoeba that is the dance music zeitgeist. 

In many ways, what lies at the heart of Nicolae’s work - beyond the extraordinary pairing of high end sound design and club functionality, is an innate ability to bind his discography - to create a streamlined sonic vision without compromise, one that moves with purpose and vigour outwards to explore in depth structures that exist on the very periphery of House & Techno, Ambient & experimental electronics - but maintain a unique and recognisable finish. Few artists could boast a discography that marries 2016’s ubiquitous In Your Body, an anthemic spoken- word-meets- Tool-Techno leviathan released via Nicolae’s own club-focused Sportiv outlet, with Semnal - a gloriously executed LP of shifting, otherworldly Experimental music delivered under the artist’s given name via the Opal Tapes label. 

Cult concept missive Hope This Finds You Well, Nicolae’s 2019 reflection on corporate culture furthers this same dichotomy - a stunning wide-angle Ambient LP on Fizic - the label operated by the artist as a home to more conceptual iterations, that followed hot on the footsteps of a remix for Bpitch founder Ellen Alien & the fourth instalment on Sportiv - both offerings heady club constructions in their own right. 

On the road, both DJ sets and live performances mirror this healthy sentiment - with Nicolae as comfortable on main stages showcasing his take on hyper-modern propulsive Techno, as he is presenting the low slung avant-garde preoccupations of his more leftfield alias’. There’s the constant feeling that both these practices feed back into one another, and that from each respective vantage point, Cosmin TRG is able to make the kind of dynamic & intuitive artistic decisions that few can - keeping his work fresh & current without concession - ceding to his own desire to further his vision as a creator of sonic abstraction without losing sight of the dance floor.

Mesh Series 04: John Tejada

Mesh Series 005: Rob Clouth 

A curated series where we commission artists to make an hour long mix of whatever inspires them to experiment, produce, play out and what they listen to.

As a multidisciplinary artist working in the fields of electronic music, computational sonics and new media, Rob Clouth's motivations include searching for raw emotion amongst intricate musical structures, developing experimental audio software solutions and, in the broadest sense, rethinking the ways in how we interact with music and technology.

Initially received as an IDM artist, his sound has evolved consistently over the years, with critically acclaimed excursions into techno, ambient and neoclassical. Today, he employs a range of influences, drawing upon research-based practices with a heavy dose of improvisation to forge microscopic textures rich with melody and harmony. A proficient software developer, he codes his own digital instruments in tandem with the music, an iterative cycle in which one feeds off the other.

After a few years exploring the outer realms of dubstep as Vaetxh, Rob’s first EP under his own name arrived with 2012’s Cloud Complex on Traum Schallplatten. Fusing the glitchy aesthetic of his previous work with fragile melodies and techno rhythms, it signalled the merging of his detail-oriented production with multigenre, dancefloor-ready tracks. Two acclaimed 2014 releases on Barker’s Leisure System imprint - Clockwork Atom and Deep Field - expanded further on his interest in atypical structures and sweeping spatial arrangements, landing him a spot on Bleep’s best releases of the year.

Hidden Structures - a 2015 EP, again on Leisure System - considered the inner workings that lie within the universe, using the notion of concealed structures to build a delicate 30-minute release of mind-melting sonic explorations. The follow up to this, 2018’s Transition - Rob’s first release on Max Cooper’s Mesh imprint - represented a new direction in his methodology. The landmark four-track EP is accompanied by an online algorithmic summary of his entire musical output since 2003, documenting his development as an artist as part generative music piece, part visual summary, and rethinking the traditional formats attributed to a release. 

March 2020 saw the release of Rob’s debut album Zero Point - a love-letter to noise, chance, chaos and order. Written over a year and a half between Barcelona and a remote village in Northern Spain, the album is inspired by the zero-point field, a quantum sea of random energy that exists everywhere in the universe. Seemingly complex scientific processes might suggest a challenging listen, but Rob’s music positions the listener firmly in the centre, encompassing moments of awe and affect amongst shifting rhythmic structure
