Gaze Into The Sun

Szymon Kaliski - To Linger

a burden is all i ever will be
i stay up all night, its hard to sleep
sleep in the day time, familys mad at me
i cant ever be anything

am i a monster
am i human
i am useless
anyways   

i bedrot all day
i never see my mom
i wish i could be something
but everything goes wrong

a burden is all i ever will be
i stay up all night, its hard to sleep
sleep in the day time, familys mad at me
i cant ever be anything

burden

Derek Carter (KapTep) about this release:

Ambient music seems to be fascinated by nature, oceans and the sky. For this KapTep release I wanted to explore the sky and more importantly all we can’t see, the millions of signals and mysteries that it hides.

I wanted to leave room for the songs to breathe and allow plenty of open spaces within them. At times these compositions may seem empty, that is by design. Although the current environment is to pick a track or two add them to your playlist.

I hope you will spend 49 minutes and listen to this as a body of work, as it was recorded to be listened to in one continuous sitting. In addition to the 6 original tracks there are two wonderful remixes added by Arrival In Eden, and Sacred Seeds.

Numbers Station – I’ve always been fascinated with them. The mystery and intrigue.

Naming the Sky – Melancholy drifting and not a care in the world.

LA Scanner – I simply love the voyeur nature of a cheap scanner.

Cold Luck Moon – Blurred images, sounds and emotions. Plus, three words that don’t mean anything together as a title.

I Need Light – In a world of conflict, doom scrolling and fear… I need light. In fact, I think we all do.

One Hundred Miles Until Sunrise – Have you ever driven somewhere and not remembered a second of it? Totally sober, auto-pilot. This is your soundtrack.

Arovane & Hior Chronik / Into my own (Album preview)

Michiru Aoyama is a Japanese ambient producer from Kyoto who also enjoys making music in the quiet seaside city of Kamakura, just south of Tokyo. Michiru studied electronic music production in Berlin after his work was hand-chosen by Ryuichi Sakamoto for a radio audition in 2006. Since then, Michiru has released projects on prominent ambient labels such as Organic Industries, taâlem, and Somehow Recordings.

Michiru Aoyama’s Brilliant Days LP comprises two tracks of untitled songs that weave in and out of each other. Michiru’s signature guitar harmonics are treated with serene electronic filters met with youthful under-layers of electronic experimentations and glitchy backdrops.

Never Said Goodbye

Pakistani-American avant-composer and drummer of the cult experimental acoustic trio Dawn of Midi, Qasim Naqvi, shares the second single 'Onna at Pulse', taken from his new album 'Beta' — out June 20 to coincide with the first ever Love Record Stores Day, in support of local record shops. 

· support Love Record Stores Day: https://www.loverecordstores.com
· pre-order 'Beta' on limited edition clear LP: https://idol.lnk.to/onna-at-pulse
· watch Qasim perform live from his kitchen: https://youtu.be/Gedfxi28220

One in a series of experiments chronicling Naqvi’s understanding of writing for a modular synth, 'Onna at Pulse' sounds like as if it moves in and out of the realms of control, twisting around a melody with a life of its own; "Onna at Pulse was the first piece of music I made with an extremely rudimentary modular synthesiser. I had just acquired two components and I wrote this simple exposition as an exercise to see what the machine would do. It was like teaching one eyeball to blink." — Qasim Naqvi

Meant as a prequel to last year's 'Teenages', a modular synth suite in six parts, 'Beta' evolved from the most basic elements of a modular synthesiser. As Qasim explains; "One oscillator and a random voltage generator which is a module that releases sporadic currents through the system. Ironically, this component provided a lot of warmth and humanness to the music, a kind of fallibility. At the time I felt that this music was underdeveloped but listening back, I think the 'Beta' tracks add an interesting dimension to the entire 'Teenages' arc. They’re the zygotes.”

If 'Teenages' captured the sound of electronics living, breathing and mutating of their own accord 'Beta', rather, describes the moment they came to life.

Love Record Stores Day is an initiative from the #loverecordstores campaign, launched during lockdown to encourage music fans to shop online with their favourite record stores. Qasim Naqvi joins a wide range of artists and labels who have pledged to release exclusive, limited edition records including Caribou, Belle and Sebastian, Beach House, Robyn, New Order and many more.

DR-69 : PORYA HATAMI - Kani + Remixes (incl. Darren McClure, Purl, Arovane, Tomotsugu Nakamura, Sven Laux)

Originally released in 2013 on the Inner Ocean label, Porya Hatami’s “Kani” was a four track EP showcasing his intimate take on modern ambient music. The Iranian artist has issued a large number of albums that imbue pastoral ambient with subtle field recordings and melodies. The melodic aspect of Hatami’s work took centre stage in this release, and shone bright across the four pieces.

So now, seven years later, “Kani” is being given the reissue that it deserves, and will delight those listeners new to it, and those who are rediscovering it again. Besides the original four tracks, there are an additional five remixes by artists working in a similar orbit to Hatami, and some who have collaborated directly with him in the past.

These reworks cover plenty of ground, reimagining the source material into new shapes. Some remixes extend the foggy soundscapes and conjure delicate melodic plucks. Others add mellow pulses that infer rhythm under the washes of sound, while others take these rhythmic ideas much further.
