Second Thoughts

Слова: Тетяна Сизевич

Сонце сідає за обрій мрій.
День поступається місцем ночі.
Ніч – володарка всіх стихій.
Злам буття відбивається в ночі.
Так збирайтесь навколо ночі,
Мрії, чари, магічні сни.
Тільки ніч здійснить замовляння.
Вдень же буде все навпаки.
Ніч – час обрядів і замовлянь,
Час прозріння і час надій.
Ніч відверне навалу наслань,
Таємницю розкриє подій.

Henrik Meierkord & Marco Lucchi - La bestia umana

Ukrainian Field Notes VA is a fundraising compilation with a difference, music with a backstory that gives a first-hand account of the unfolding events since the full-scale Russian invasion in real time, and presents an overview of the changing face of the Ukrainian music scene dictated by blackouts and curfew restrictions.

What started off as an ongoing series of interviews with Ukrainian artists for the experimental music website A Closer Listen has now become a book comprising all 170 interviews conducted over the course of a year mapping out the electronic and experimental scene in Ukraine.

All musicians involved were asked to submit a track composed after February 24, 2022 to mark its publication. The resulting material reflects the diaristic nature of the book and deals with PTSD, displacement, separation, and loss, and shows at the same time the strength and resilience of Ukrainian artists with a meditative and uplifting reach.

The track listing follows the chronological order of the interviews, switching from ambient and electronic to classical and experimental in a seemingly random fashion, but war is chaotic and shattering, or as Serhii Zhadan writes in Sky Above Kharkiv, “War sharply changes ways of seeing, changes feelings.” Ukrainian Field Notes is a testament to the shifting sonic and human landscape.

Ukrainian Field Notes VA - це благодійна фандрайзінгова компіляція, що відрізняється від інших, музика з передісторією, яка розповідає з перших вуст про події, що розгортаються з моменту повномасштабного російського вторгнення в режимі реального часу, і представляє огляд зміни обличчя української музичної сцени, продиктованої відключенням електроенергії та обмеженнями комендантської години.

Те, що починалося як серія інтерв'ю з українськими музикантами для сайту експериментальної музики A Closer Listen, тепер перетворилося на книгу, що містить усі 170 інтерв'ю, взятих протягом року, які окреслюють електронну та експериментальну сцену в Україні.

Щоб відзначити її публікацію, всім музикантам, які брали участь в інтерв'ю, було запропоновано надіслати трек, написаний після 24 лютого 2022 року. Отриманий матеріал відображає щоденниковий характер книги і стосується ПТСР, переміщення, розлуки та втрати, а також демонструє силу та стійкість українських митців з медитативним та піднесеним звучанням.

Трек-лист відповідає хронологічному порядку інтерв'ю, переходячи від ембієнту та електроніки до класики та експериментальної музики у, здавалося б, випадковий спосіб, але війна є хаотичною та руйнівною, або, як пише Сергій Жадан у "Небі над Харковом", "війна різко змінює способи бачення, змінює почуття". "Ukrainian Field Notes VA" - це свідчення мінливого звукового та людського ландшафту.

Marco Lucchi - Once full of life [Naviar Haiku # 512] w/Night Note

I was moved when I read this weeks Haiku from Naviars own Marco Sebastiano Alessi.
There was an idea in my head almost straight away, a repeating piano set to a echo delay effect that could potentially never end. Anf then the feeling of an empty house, an old distorted 78rpm record playing as if from a distance (of time?) and the feeling of a place of memory but now all gone.

Brian Bennett - Solstice

Another year is going to end, I'm very happy my music project is still going very strong!

Tomorrow I will be leaving for my holidays, I didn't have much time to compose music lately, but tonight I had a few hours and I was feeling really inspired, so I decided to compose a new track as a gift for you all! I made the track in 2 hours, it's a bit more fast, energetic and positive than my latest works, I really hope you will like it!

The track is free to download, as a strong thank you, for your constant support, commenting my music, interacting with me, sharing it, it all means a lot to me!

I wish you Happy Holidays and an awesome New Year!

Was a huge fan of this track when it came out two years ago, and i still am. So i decided to add a little twist to it, while keeping the original idea intact.

@Rhyw next on Fever AM.

Alex Tsiridis, one of Techno’s more prolific producers, returns to the label he operates alongside Mor Elian. Tsiridis has used the Rhyw alias to explore more abstract interpretations of both the Techno genre, and the wider dance music spectrum.

On this particular missive Tsiridis looks to his musical roots, growing up in the UK for inspiration, with a pair of high tensile, deconstructed club tools. Both find their focus in the low end, with the artist looking to the silent space between percussive strikes as much as any one sonic component. Vocal cuts lend the tracks their identity, with careful shifts and edits thereof lifting both recordings up far and above the sum of their parts.

The result is satisfying & undeniably effective - Tsiridis’ output as Rhyw has always been deceptively simple - favouring economy of elements over a crowded sonic space. This latest effort is no different, a well executed & welcome addition to the discographies of both artist and label.

Track List:
A. Biggest Bully
B. Felt

Release Date: 20th May 2019 
12" vinyl (+hand screen printed cover) & digital

Biggest Bully / Felt (FAM05)

Rhyw - Felt (FAM05)

Track from "Skalpel" album, 2004, Ninja Tune

Skalpel - Break In ("Skalpel")

Sagittarius (2012)

The Caretaker conjures a quieter, more introspective spirit, lost in his own mind amidst a low-lit labyrinth of ever-decaying and antediluvian shellac phrases. Sourced from a mysterious collection of 78s, these vague snippets of archaic sonics reflect the ability of Alzheimers patients to recall the songs of their past, and with them recollections of places, people, moods and sensations.

03 - The great hidden sea of the unconscious

Malta-born Keith Farrugia aka Sound Synthesis has been highly productive through a great amount of quality releases during the last two years. 
This time he joins eudemonia for his next strike. 
The record consists of three masterly crafted tracks which evidence his talent to produce wonderful melodic electro music. 
Each of them tell their own unique story, rounded up with a remix by Motor City mastermind Shawescape Renegade.
