Donato Dozzyは日本にいる多くの友人たちへの想いを馳せ、またLabyrinthで私たちの前でプレイすることを思い描きつつこのミックスを作りました。彼の奏でる音楽にまた身を委ねる日が待ち遠しいですね。

Donato Dozzy - For Labyrinth

Vivian Koch (@kochvivian) has real range. For labels like Life And Death, a.r.t.less and AD 93 she has served up everything from IDM to moody breaks, ambient soundscapes to emotive techno. Her most recent album - last year's ominous but hopeful Beyond Contact - was fine proof of that from the Berlin-based artist who started DJing aged just 16. She has since mastered the art of making and playing club music thanks to her residency at Griessmuehle and her own Olympe party series.

She very much eases into this week with a superb ambient selection. It's broad in its remit, with the most beautiful and suspensory pieces bleeding into gently suggestive rhythms. The moods, too, range from mind-emptying bliss to passages of hopefulness and even romance. It's the sort of cathartic listen we all occasionally need to immerse ourselves in as a way of resetting.

Dekmantel Podcast 374 - Vivian Koch

In the slipstream of the recent 'Oumuamua' release MLO's Jon Tye was kind enough to contribute a mix and we had a nice chat with him along the way too. Interview (excerpt) down below.

www.musicfrommemory.com

MFM: Hi Jon. You live in South England close to the coast and the national park now but come from a more city environment. What made you swap city life for the rural country side?

JT: I live in Cornwall in the South West but spent 25 years in London prior to moving here. I find the countryside and the beach much more conducive for making music and it’s been a great place to bring up children.

MFM: Can you tell a bit about how you and Peter Smith (other half of MLO) got to start the project? 

JT: Pete and I were in rival punk bands in Exeter, Devon in the 70’s. When Pete’s band split up we decided to form a new group called Missing Chemicals, we were very into bands like Talking Heads and Pere Ubu. It was a good time to be in a band, so much great music being released, amazing gigs, places to play, lots of energy.

MFM: At what point did techno start to make an impression on you, and can you describe what impact it had when first hearing it?

JT: It was hearing underground radio stations in London that got me hooked, I remember hearing Fingers Inc and Larry Heard and then Adonis, Rhythm is Rhythm. It blew my mind, the early days of acid and techno were wild, a real revolution.

MFM: Most tracks from the recent 'Oumuamua' compilation are unreleased pieces of music that were recorded between '92-'95. Had you forgotten about them over time or...?

JT: We fell out with Rising High over non payment of royalties and R&S as we couldn’t agree on a deal, I then started the Lo Recordings label and Pete went to America and yes I guess we just forgot about all the tapes we recorded. It was a really pleasant shock to rediscover the music we’d made and to find it sounding so fresh. 

MFM: How do you feel listening to them now in relation to back when you wrote and recorded them? Does the music still bring up the same energy and thoughts you had back then?

JT: It feels better now. We weren’t in great shape when we recorded a lot of that material, there was a lot of tension with Rising High and people were moving away from ambient music. I’m amazed it sounds so serene!

MFM: How do you feel of your music being (re)appreciated by a whole newer and younger generation?  

JT: It’s fantastic, this a great time to be making music. Everything is so much more fluid these days. 

MFM: Does it motivate you to work on new music? 

JT: I’m working on music constantly, there’s a new Ocean Moon release on Golden Ratio Frequencies called ‘Music for Vibraphone & Tape’ and a new Seahawks album later this year on the Cascine label called ‘Infinite Echo’. I’ve also been working on new music with Cate Brooks (The Advisory Circle/Cafe Kaput), some of which features in the mix.

MFM: How did you approach making the selection and mix?

JT: I wanted it to be a companion to the MLO compilation and I wanted to combine music made recently with music made nearly 30 years ago. The mix is made of unreleased or alternative versions of MLO material and recent tracks I’ve made with Cate Brooks (we don’t have a name for the project yet). All the tracks seem to flow together really well despite the fact they were made nearly 30 years apart! A circular trip.

MFM: Are you still catching up on what happens in music land these days? What appeals to you nowadays? 

JT: Running the Lo label and also a library imprint called Lo Editions means I’m constantly listening to new music. Also various friends run labels so I’m always hearing new tracks. The Zenmenn album was a huge favourite, as was Eddie Chacon’s album. Mary Lattimore , Holly Herndon, Abul Mogard, Eris Drew...so much good music out there.

Deep Electronics # 366 - Post Apocalyptic

During summer lockdown 2021, it was forbidden to have dancing at parties. And so when exemplary north-east London record shop Hidden Sounds asked me to DJ at a sitting-down event, it seemed like the perfect workaround, and a wonderful excuse to explore some deep corners of my record collection. 
Think blankets, incense, rugs, chess, cushions, fungi, tea and 50 people laying around in a cosy space for a psychedelic, horizontal, evening listening session - pure bliss!
Here is the whole thing.

Jin Invites Series #2 
Cloud of the mystery: ARIO

— Artist Intro —

London-based Ario is a practitioner of deep and inquisitive music both as a DJ and curator of his label Astral Industries. 
Although his remit falls within the deeper shades of electronic music, his overall aesthetic draws on a broader spectrum that prizes the synthesis of both instrumental and electronic disciplines. 
Depending on context, he traverses the lines and forms between the ambient and techno worlds. What is common in each, however, is his alchemic handling of rich organicism mixed with darker, more austere sounds. 
Speaking with an emotive sensitivity, there is a certain self-awareness that permeates his crafted soundscapes, which are as much drone inspired as they are psychedelic and nature-driven.

Ambient Sessions # 99 - Alessandro Crimi

German selector Lux, equally known for her storytelling skills in ambient and leftfield electronica, just as she is for her control of the dance floor via diverse house, electro and techno, provides the first arch podcast of 2023. In this serene 70+ minute trip we dive into cascading dub sequences, filtering waves of synthesised melody, and sparse minimalist dub electronics.

Научная Фантастика и Новые Композиторы - Контакты Третьего Рода 5/7

Since 2014, UK-based label, https://soundcloud.com/astralindustries have been responsible for some of the most enlightening and entertaining releases of recent years. Their output has helped otherwise forgotten or out of print music see the light of day, provided new takes on previous classics, whilst also pushing forward new music by some of the most well-respected artists within the ambient genre. 

Debuting with a release by dub-techno legend DeepChord in 2014, Astral Industries went on to release Wolfgang Voigt's live project, Rückverzauberung Live In London in 2015.  In 2016 they followed with a 1985 recording from disbanded dutch collective Chi - a timeless and undoubtedly classic record, whilst in the same year pitching Wolfgang and Deepchord together for the very first time, with reinterpretations of Peter Michael Hamel's classic, Colors of Time. By then, and combined with the continually brilliant artwork of Theo Ellsworth, we knew that Astral Industries was a label with staying-power, and a growing catalog of releases worth collecting - be it just for the framed artwork, or moreover, the complete music package. 

In 2017, we've seen an LP by Heavenly Music Corporation, aka Kim Cascone (likely encouraged by the recent re-release of his own label Silent Records), a third LP by The Chi Factory, and then just last month a beautiful album by Waveform Transmission (Rod Modell of DeepChord and Chris Troy), with a sublime follow-up album, a massive 20 years after their first. 

The man behind the Astral Industries machine, Ario is a proven expert at plucking obscure gems from the past, or ensuring that good music gets the platform and artistic presentation it deserves. In just a few years, Ario has curated a highly respected and anticipated label roster that demands attention, and has yet to disappoint. The music is always gentle, deep and often extremely vivid, be it deeply hypnotic ambient, or gentle murmurs of dub-techno. 

With curatorial talents like this, we're overjoyed to host an exclusive 2hr+ mix of Ario digging into his record collection, and interlocking a few select exclusive Astral Industries bits in-between. It's one hell-of-a hypnotic journey and just like the Astral Industries releases, deserved of your full undivided, escapist attention.
