ORIGINALS & REMIXS

spontaneous upload for bandcamp friday (may 7 2022).

this was created as a studio exercise while re-building my analog set up in my studio for dubwise ('rhythym and sound' related) productions, in the fall of 2020. i made a series of recordings of very improvised / guided / instinctual recordings, while calibrating this set-up (to be ready to create in that way, right away, if the inspiration or a project landed). the bass is played live on a real 'kee bass' unit (that happened to be in the trash at the studio when i first moved in. ..talk about divine). this track has very little edits and is true to form of how the mixer and fx and set-up was played, how instinct was followed, and how guidance interacted.

very little post-treatment was done to the recording off the board too (also, talk about how & why analog is better in many ways and captures certain things). so this track is technically un-mastered. i just couldn't touch it. it didn't want to be touched. ..maybe i'll get around to seeing about a pro touching it at some point.

'discovery dub (raw loop)' was created in ableton, then looped and fed into the analog set-up - resulting in the full featured "version".

best and brightest to you. shine a light. reveal the shadows. love over everything.

Michael Red - Harpoon

Seven suites of deep and sprawling sonic meditations built around ‘call and response’ improv sessions between Randy Raine-Reusch and Michael Red.

Initially realized over the course of a few days in Randy’s instrument museum in Vancouver BC [December, 2014] 'ERAS' is made up of processed, and sometimes multi tracked, improvisations between Randy and Michael. Through these sessions Randy would choose instruments he sensed possibilities within, and Michael then revealed and sculpted these possibilities. Both resonating, sensing sonic structures, environmental nuances, and further worlds in each other’s art, all within the moment. Being present for each other, they acted on instinct, trusting a first thought, trusting each other; committing, responding to that commitment, then mutating and letting go. Always moving forward, synthesizing and letting the living moment lead the way.

Seven suites of deep and sprawling sonic meditations built around ‘call and response’ improv sessions between Randy Raine-Reusch and Michael Red.

Slow and tempered recordings of Asian flutes, African harps, temple gongs and a myriad of obscure instruments from Randy Raine-Reusch's deep collection mutate and ebb into swirling gossamers of tone. Sonic incantations stretched and magnified further by Red's Sends. An otherworldly play between light and shadow worlds; at times idyllic and light-filled, at times dark and eerie– all engrossing. Dream-reality reconciliations weave between the spectral world of Michael Red's sound processes and the direct physicality of Raine-Reusch's playing. The tension across the pieces builds between the live playing and processing techniques, dutifully revealing a growing familiarity with collective transcendence through sound (bigger than the sum of its parts). Real-time interactive dream music.

Always moving forward, synthesizing and letting the living moment lead the way.

The recordings were left to distill and mature for many years before the composers felt it was ready. With minimal judicious edits and a very light dusting of FXs, both careful to preserve the direct and intuitive process that permeates the recording, ERAS now emerges.

pi pi pi premiere: Randy Raine-Reusch & Michael Red - Shifting Silence (Isla)

After a brief hiatus we're back with the 9th Tape by the one they call Otik - 3024 recording artist extraordinaire responsible for the magnificent Cosmosis album as well as the recent EP Cloud Runner.

3024: Otik, can you describe your mix in a single sentence?

"An ethereal and drum heavy journey between 160 and 170bpm, which includes old and new inspirations for my recent ‘Cloud Runner’ EP on 3024."

3024: What DJ inspires you at the moment / has inspired you throughout the years and why?

"I’ve actually talked about this recently, but I’ve always been in awe of Midland’s sets. The way he can read a crowd and create heart stopping moments on the spot with ease has really inspired me to become a better DJ."

3024: What are you working on / what have you got forthcoming?

"I’m currently finishing up two records for the same label, I can’t say who yet but I’m really happy with how they sound. The music focuses a bit more on the dance floor, 4x4 rhythms and sits within the 135-140pm range, which I haven’t experimented with for a while."
