artist: DesuExSounds https://soundcloud.com/freej-255201882
album: Figments (NR015)
release date: 10th September 2021
duration: 39 minutes
edition: digital + CD

How we recall, 
how Emotions imprint in us, 
the sound of mother Nature, 
the big City, 
our Loneliness, 
our struggles, 
the Voice that soothe our pain, 
the Voice that fuels our Dreams, 
to conquer the Past and reach 
for the Summit, 
Our best. 
to Sail, 
with Hope, 
into the Unknown. 


Figments is an introspective journey depicted through ethereal soundscapes: personal experiences that define us yet result from intimate contemplation that little has to do with objective experience. 

In concert, mind and surroundings create a new world, where the boundaries between reality and abstraction seem feeble, non-existent. Field recordings make way for subtle ambient layers: a metaphor of the world being absorbed and reinterpreted by our consciousness. What’s left is a path made of memory, experience, feelings that become the compass that guides us through the intricacies of life. 

Like waves, perpetual melodies break through the veil of reality and force us to look within, question ourselves and what defines us. 

Figments is a celebration of the inner voice, the one that can shape reality so that we can live within its boundaries while being truly, unquestionably ourselves. 

About the artist: 

A "homegrown" of Naviar's community, Constantin Blu, aka DesuExSounds, started producing ambient and soundscapes by picking up the Naviar's Haiku challenge almost four years ago to explore and develop creativity through music as a tool for self-knowledge and interaction. Previously just a passion, Constantin has co-authored musical projects for dance and theatre in the Bucharest scene with friends who have a special home town in common: Onesti. "Figments" is the first ambient solo album that coagulates this journey, reflects the personal bond, and draws inspiration from Naviar's artistic ethos.

Created for the Disquiet Junto Project 0507: In DD's Key of C
@disquiet

The Project: Make music with 10 acoustic instrument samples all in a shared key.

Thank you to @daniel-diaz for the beautiful samples!

I was inspired by the chord progression in the melodica sample, so I used that as a base to created a rhythmically-shifting generative drone in the Borderlands Granular app on my iPad, eventually using all 10 of the samples. It was a fun challenge mapping the patchwork of waveforms across the screen so that I could trigger different parts of overlapping samples with various moving 'circles' of granular processing. The end result came out rather lilting and mysterious.

Please enjoy the waves!

Artwork is by Daniel Diaz - his notes from creating the samples.

Squirrel on the bird feeder
Spinning lights on the wall
That dog is trying to dig a hole in my couch
Whistling in the garage with car parts
Making shadow hands over a running table saw
We’re on the swings 
only staring at the clouds

Re-imagine the concrete 
as batiked cloth over a clothesline
Let the wind reveal the ripples in her core

we’re in the dining room
we’re in the dining room

Vaj? Ra! ↯☁↯☁↯ Chant Town (Neuropolis Under Morphing Horizon)

Unseen lane toward the deferral breath
Fog unspools, hums like it knows me 
Straining to perceive what I have encoded 
And they leave anyway 
Countless doors to exit

Tracing the edges of each shade
Arise from the entrails of circuitry vain
Withhold in a corridor - ornaments of the dim ache

TEARS026 coming soon...

“The avant garde is dead. That is its triumph. Let it lie.” - Chris Cutler in “Not As We Choose: Music, Memory and Technology”. (Highly recommended!)

“… there is increasingly less call to exercise an already too rare generosity of aesthetic hospitality.” - Chris Cutler

" Music is one of the great Mysteries. It gives life. It is not a career, nor a business, nor a craft. It is a gift... and a great responsibility. Because one can never know where the creative spark comes from or why it exists, it must be treasured as a Mystery. For the most part I believe creativity chooses you, not the other way around." - John Zorn (excerpt from the liner notes to 'Magick')

“Listen as if you were being told a secret” - Federico Fellini

“Experimental and electronic music was once not-so-benignly tolerated at the margins of western art music, but it has over the last decade or so moved toward a central position as something of the soundtrack of our digital culture. Where it once was merely tolerated it is now more engaged and doesn’t have to apologize to anyone”.  - Douglas Kahn 

"Through technology, voices are amplified and silence is broken. Spaces are shared." – Laurie Anderson

"I frequently hear music in the heart of noise." - George Gershwin

"'Tis an ill wind that blows no minds." - 
Malaclypse the Younger in 'Principia Discordia'

“Let us cross a great modern capital with our ears more alert than our eyes and we will get enjoyment from distinguishing the eddying of water, air and gas in metal pipes, the grumbling noises that breathe and pulse with indisputable animility, the palpitation of waves, the coming and going of pistons, the howl of mechanical saws, the jolting of the tram on its rails, the cracking of whips, the flapping of curtains and flags. We enjoy creating mental orchestrations of crashing down of metal shop blinds, slamming doors, the hubbub and shuffle of crowds, the variety of din from the stations, railways, iron foundries, spinning mills, printing works, electric power stations and underground railways.” — Luigi Russolo in 'The Art of Noises' (L'arte dei Rumori)
