Dopplereffekt 

As we come to our 150th episode we could not be more proud of how the series is starting to shape and what better way to celebrate this milestone than with the project that has been one of the main driving forces and ideologies we strive for since day one:    

We think Joe Muggs phrased the feeling of first contact in the interview for Resident Advisor rather brilliantly; “Approaching the work of Dopplereffekt can be daunting. As the title of their first album-length collection suggests, the act—it's hard even to know whether to refer to "it," "he" or "they"—comprises a Gesamtkunstwerk: a "total artwork" where every song, every performance, every musical motif and every pronouncement is part of a greater whole.”
 
 This tendency for anonymity and mystery combined with the incorporation of insides on topics such as relativity, time-space continuum, totalitarianism, quantum physics, data (but always with a convivial twist) is what makes this act so intriguing as it always keeps its sound innovative yet timeless while keeping everything styled in Dopplerverse-matter. 

A little bit on the legacy of the concept: it made its debut in 1995 with the Fascist State EP, released by its own Dataphysix Engineering continued by Infophysix in 1996 and Sterilization in 1997 before releasing the iconic Gesamtkunstwerk in 1999.  Deep space excursions began in 2003 with the LP Linear Accelerator and the research was extended with Calabi Yau Space on Aphex Twin’s Rephlex. 
 The most recent spell of experiments saw the alliance with the Berlin based Leisure System come into fruition with 2013's Tetrahymena, the split EP with Objekt named Hypnagogia and the approach of mathematical growth and decay as an iterative process in, with data input considered individually relative to the overall model aka the Cellular Automata LP. 
Some other noteworthy work to let your mind dwell on are Die Riesen together with Visonia on Last Known Trajectory , the Instinct remix of The Exaltics on Solar One Music and the joined EP Star Gazing together with K1.   

This entire discography goes hand in hand with computer free live performances throughout time, with appearances at MUTEK, Oval Space x Different Circles, Tresor, Galactic Funk, inner city electronic, Glitch, Strange Sounds From Beyond, Nuits Sonores, Dimensions Festival, Dekmantel and countless others.

We will conduct an interview with these fascinating beings later this month, but in the meantime be sure to scour Clone Classic Cuts and Aqualung series for Der Zyklus, Japanese Telecom, Zwischenwelt and Arpanet to lead you to endless discovery and entertainment that may or may not have any connection with the previous recording, and as always…

Pe 6 noiembrie 2024, Atelier Cafe din Cluj-Napoca a găzduit ultima escală națională a platformei MELODIY, după un maraton de două luni care a adus aproape 30 de performeri și DJ din scena independentă românească în fața publicului din București, Iași, Timișoara, Cluj și orașul german Hamburg.

Ana Sechereș este selector pe scena bucureșteană de câțiva ani încoace și ocazional pe cea internațională. Performează în mod regulat în cluburi locale și în restul timpului se menține ocupată organizând spectacole live sau ocupându-se de seria de petreceri Avoidance of Séance și emisiunea lunară cu același nume, pentru Black Rhino Radio. S-a ocupat de jurnalism cultural, fotografie, streamuri live și e încă interesată de tot ceea ce poate fi numit underground.

Objekt: "Here’s the recording of my set from Dekmantel Selectors festival in Tisno, Croatia, summer 2017.

This was definitely a lucky case of snatching victory from the jaws of defeat and there are endless caveats with this recording – I had a terrible cold; I’d lost my earplugs about an hour earlier and this was the first set I’d played without them in about 6 years; the needles kept jumping (long story but kinda my fault) – but somehow the environment, the energy of the crowd and liberal quantities of vodka sent me flying through 2.5 hours of techno, house, electro, IDM, ghettotech, jungle, DnB and all the way back again. You’ll have to excuse the skipping records but otherwise I hope you enjoy the recording as much as I enjoyed playing."

Huntleys + Palmers: Georgia Special with Kura

The period leading up to the release of Parastrophics was one of uncharacteristic silence for Mouse On Mars. Their 10th studio album was 5 years in the making - and the record, for all its deftness and dizzying unpredictability, was notable for the resulting sense of gravitas. WOW is the exact opposite, a spontaneous reaction to all those hours of studio labour, created from scratch in a matter of weeks, and released just 9 months after its predecessor.

You can almost feel the tension being released. WOW is an exuberant, immediate and club-orientated counterpoint to Parastrophics, with Jan St. Werner and Andi Toma aiming their considerable technical finesse firmly in the direction of the dancefloor. There are no prizes for guessing the 303 delights that a track called “ACD” might have to offer; others, like “DOG”, “HYM” and the closing “SUN” deliver serious bass punch and genuine hands-in-the-air euphoria alongside Mouse On Mars’s trademark twists and turns.

The vocal presence tying the whole mini-album together is Dao Anh Khanh, whom the band met during their tour of Asia 2010. Dao is a performer and sculptor from Vietnam, who invented a fantasy language which the band recorded together with him in an arcane Hanoi studio. Further contributions come from the Argentinian girl punk band Las Kellies and Eric D. Clarke. Thrown together, these disparate elements come together to make a whole which is epic, abstract, intense and ridiculous at the same time. WOW is Mouse on Mars' bass theatre.

The record also makes much use of the wretchup, an iphone app which was invented by Mouse on Mars during preparations for their orchestral work Paeanumnion. The band went on to use wretchup effects on Parastrophics and on stage during their 2012 album tour – now they plan to make it available, via itunes, around the time of the release of WOW.

Mouse On Mars - HYM /// Monkeytown Records 2012

Over the course of eleven albums - not to mention an avalanche of side projects, remixes and collaborations - Jan St Werner and Andi Toma of Mouse on Mars established themselves as two of the most inventive and unpredictable artists in electronic music.
