Ambient

All of these tracks were composed, played and recorded in one take, straight to stereo. The only post-processing carried out on these tracks was the addition of a bit of compression and trimming of the starts and ends of the tracks.

One-Take Electronica

More fresh new talents from Lyon!! 

For this inaugural release the french label BFDM introduces two young promising producers aka The Pilotwings. Agorespace is an excursion, a trip where dark and killer drums meet with some soft melodies and primitive percussion.

“Trance Beats” is a wonky house track made up of hip-hop/jungle breaks and synthetic animal sounds, a powerful combination of tribal rhythm and creepy synths. On the same side comes “Cavernes Magiques”, a modern electronic tune where raw 707 jams gives way to Trippy dance pads, 90’s influences. On the other side a strong techno track contrasted with bright synths called “Cours-la-Ville”, a dark and long exploration.

Rising Osaka-based composer Seiho meticulously crafts electronic music in futuristic fusion. Collapse is the full length album amalgam detailing dance floor / Rave dominators, and hidden doorways into hyper-nuanced free jazz & musique concrète. Collapse is a representation of where we’re going: the symbiosis between music, technology, and human potential. Leaving Records befriended Seiho when touring Japan in 2012, and since then they have continued to remain close contemporaries exchanging influences - bridging west-coast scenes with Japanese electronic music culture.

Seiho - Peach and Pomegranate

A very repetitive, bang-on-four-beats drone and sequencer thing, improvised straight to 2-track.

This was basically a system try-out for some DIY synth modules that I've put together recently.

Developed this in less than a couple of hours in the studio, recorded as usual in one take, straight to stereo.

The title comes from a spoken line at a TEDx rehearsal; can't remember the context or even who said it, but I took a note of it at the time as a potential title. So, thanks, random TEDx speaker, whoever you are, this one's for you.

Pavlov's Instant Messenger

Androids' hearts are motorised pumps, unlike a human heart they run at a constant rate; as a result, androids have no pulse, no sound of rushing blood in their heads. The only murmur in an android's heart happens when it's dreaming it's dark, dark dreams. 

An ambient piece for sequencer, bass drone with LFO & drum machine.

Heart Murmur

Random voltages and bit-crushed noise overlaid with a frosting of order from the chaos. All good clean mental-healthy fun. 

Probably.

Certified

A rambling extended improv session with layered, evolving chords, random sequences & noises off and a well-old-school drum machine rhythm. Tons of fun :-)

The sequence is downwards moving. New identical sequences are introduced octaves higher. The new ones are faded in and the old ones are faded out, giving the impression of an eternal sequence. Like snow flakes move in and out of your field of vision.

Digital beats meet analogue waves in a dark and mellow symphony of lush synths, evocative of the golden age of '70s electronica.
