Balam (Argentina)[思考と発想(Thoughts And Ideas)Time] [25.02.2023]

Una de nuestras parejas favoritas de productores Justine & Ed [Deux Control] vinieron a visitarnos al final de su tour express por Latinoamérica para compartirnos su música y para ponernos al día de lo que han hecho en estos años desde que dejaron México y regresaron a Roma. 

Hablamos del bello mundo de la pizza, del vino francés, fuimos a Maraika a pasar el día en bote y vimos ballenas mientras se ponía el sol, increíble.

Sigan la música de este par de genios tanto juntos como separados:

Muchas gracias Justine y Ed por venir a visitar y por este recuerdo musical tan especial.

La Negra Sounds

Dinner w/ DEUX CONTROL [Recorded Live]

As the music starts to play, you can feel a sense of unease creeping on you. A sense of urgency in the beat that seems to mirror the growing tension in your body. You can feel the earth beneath your feet heating up, and the bodies around you getting warmer and warmer to match the intensity of the beat. 

Unseen forces draw upon an object, which grows larger with every passing moment. The music becomes more frenzied and the vibration of the sand begins to match the rythm of the music, intensifying as the object draws nearer. All of a sudden, it crashes into the earth with a deafening roar. 

For a moment, everything is consumed by a blinding white light and a deafening white noise. You’re suspended in the air, with the music throbbing in the back of your mind. It’s a state of ultimate peace, where you’re held forever.

Taken from "Secret Circuit - Green Mirror LP (Invisible, Inc.)". Out April 10th 2023. Buy here : https://secretcircuit.bandcamp.com/album/green-mirror

Very pleased to announce that after some very long delays the long-awaited double album of new music by Secret Circuit is finally landing next month.

The album is comprised of 21 tracks of new material, 82 minutes of music, all gleaned and distilled down from around 60 demos recorded between 2020 and 2022.

Some of these demos were sent under the name E Ruscha V, others as Only Thingz, but Invisible Inc wanted to capture a sound of Ruscha's that was outside of these in some way: a sound somewhere between the cosmic, otherworldy music of Secret Circuit and the warmer, earthier music of E Ruscha V and the ambient side of Only Thingz, yet which tried to capture both the more emotive AND more experimental side of this prolific and extremely talented producer. A paradox perhaps but it seems we've managed it. Very rarely do we hear modular synths doing something so human sounding... and when juxtaposed alongside slide guitars, live bass and vocodered vocals, we have something very special indeed. Needless to say, it seemed 100% appropriate to release this music under the Secret Circuit name.
A highpoint for the label in 2023, no doubt.
___________

The album comes housed in a full colour reverse board sleeve featuring original artwork by Eddie Ruscha and comes with a colour double-sided insert with liner notes (written in reverse so you'll need a mirror to read them, of course) and more of Eddie's drawing.
Vinyl costs are extremely high at the moment, due to materials going up in price, but we will try and have this special package retailing for as low as possible to make this affordable for as many as possible...namely just £24 (you'll see single disc LP's selling for this price these days).

Green Mirror

Golden Fluoride

PREMIERE : Secret Circuit - Golden Fluoride (Invisible, Inc)

Invisible Inc is over the moon to finally be announcing this long-awaited double album of new music by Secret Circuit.

Presented here are 21 new pieces (or 22 if you count the bandcamp-exclusive digital bonus) recorded between 2020 and 2022 which capture that spacey, otherworldly quality Secret Circuit is known for but they also very much veer into the warmer, earthier and generally more ambient textural territories of his E Ruscha V and Only Thingz work...an altogether softer sensibility. The fact that the second disc of the double album is primarily ambient further confuses the issue! But Secret Circuit this most definitely is!

From a plethora of demos (60+) Invisible Inc label boss GK Machine wanted to distill these down and explore a side of Ruscha's that he felt hadn't been heard before, focussing on Ruscha's more emotive yet at the same time experimental side. Is that a paradox? Well, let's say only very rarely do we hear modular synths doing something so human-sounding, and when these are juxtaposed alongside slide guitars, live bass and vocodered vocals, we have something very special indeed.

Then there's the artwork...all lovingly drawn by E Ruscha V himself and landing on our desk long after the record had gone into production and test pressings delivered and approved. The package is made complete with a double-sided colour insert with liner notes and another of Ruscha's mind-warping doodles. Oh and the liner notes are written in reverse so you'll need a mirror to read them. Of course they are!

To cut a long story short, everything about this release is archetypal classic Secret Circuit and couldn't be anyone else. A highpoint for the label in 2023, no doubt.

Tunnel Vision

PREMIERE: Secret Circuit - Tunnel Vision [Invisible, Inc]

Her huge bay window felt like a porthole to the entire world. From here she could see everything; the towering skyscrapers that seemed to stretch beyond the clouds, the trees in shades of green, white and pink rustling in the soft afternoon breeze, and in the distance, the sea and the mountains promising an escape from the urban jungle. She watched the people go about their days - watched them argue and make up, greet and bid each other goodbye, stumble and fall, race and disappear - How funny that one window gave a view of so much life....

After a long and chaotic journey to completion, Invisible Inc have finally released Secret Circuit's double LP, Green Mirror, into the world. Almost two years in the making, the album sees the return of the project of LA native and audiovisual artist Edward Ruscha V following two EPs on the imprint in 2016 and 2018. Known for his music under several different bands, projects, guises and collaborations over the years, he's a dab hand at meandering in all kinds of directions, but on this release he focuses on balancing emotion and experimentalism, creating a collection of 21 pieces that bounce between the cosmic, the ambient, the otherworldly and the off-kilter. This is music for the open minded.

Emerging from the epic Scottish house and techno scene of the 90s, George started his musical adventures as a DJ and then promoter, bringing to Scotland DJs from Chicago, New York, Toronto, Paris, and London to play at the legendary Tribal Funktion parties in Edinburgh.
 
Aside from co-founding Edinburgh's Underground Solushn record shop, he also started producing his own blend of techno and house in the mid-nineties. This led to a string of releases with seminal labels such as NRK, Stickman, 2020 Vision, Crosstown Rebels, Tirk, and more recently Greco-Roman, Optimo, and Output Recordings. After a move to London in 2000 the George T moniker began a long hiatus. Nothing was heard until Joe Goddard released an EP of rediscovered gems on Greco-Roman in 2017.
 
His various monikers from then and now include Plastic Avengers, George Demure, and more recently as one half of Jeanga and George. He collaborates extensively, with some of his most recent projects featuring actor Tam Dean Burn, percussionist Mairi Buchanan, soul singer Joseph Malik and Paranoid London’s Quinn Whalley. He continues to share his eclectic tastes on his monthly radio show “All Noise” on Edinburgh’s EHFM Radio.

LAYER #328 | George T

An intriguing and revealing hypnotic immersion from the enigmatic duo @juna_musik.

"Archetipo" explores the landscapes of the unconscious.
The word "persona" in Latin means mask: thus the personality, the scenery of the ego, is transformed into a theatre of archetypal images, merging word and music, like a rhetorical figure, a synesthesia. The aesthetic-musical research is a poetic-sound journey into the psyche, to tell and celebrate it.

Composed, arranged, produced, and mixed by @nathan-dawidowicz.
Lyrics and vocals by @juri-corrado.

JUNA - Archetipo

Timo Kaukolampi, frontman for Finnish electronic rock group K-X-P and tireless sonic wanderer, is releasing his second solo album on Optimo Music. Exquisitely rendered, shadowy, curiously claustrophobic and even occasionally paranoid, Inside The Sphere is an album wholly deserving of its name.

A sense of paranoia is one of the threads through this glittering, winking electronic maze. Partly influenced by his brush with a serial conman, Kaukolampi says “I came up with this metaphysical concept of the “sphere”. When you are manipulated you are ‘Inside The Sphere’. It’s like this dome of ‘undue influence’ that you don't know exists around you. It's a bit like the inside of a cult.” Here, heady, swirling soundscapes threaten to engulf you, threaten to unduly influence you. ‘Chrystal Desert’ builds to a slow-motion climax, queasy vocal processing on ‘Ee-Nni-Aa-Ssa’ becomes almost chant-like, and the sparse polyrhythms, in Kaukolampi’s words, create an “eternal… hypnotic groove”.

Indeed, it’s amazing the effects achieved with a few sparse electronic textures, the odd smattering of studio trickery, and two or three well-placed synthesizer parts. Though the result might sound ostensibly simplistic, Inside The Sphere is an album of reduction rather than addition. The rhythmic and textural scaffolding is based around what’s not there, rather than what is. Kaukolampi says “I think I scrap like 90% of the material I record… this music is concentrated from a huge amount of music.” Take ‘VCS3’. At first listen, it seems forged from a few synth lines and a simple percussion part - so far, so simple. But listen closer, enter the sphere, look behind the mask - notice the slightly detuned drones, the chattering percussive textures, that distant swell of bass, the way the central fugue shifts and mutates somehow statically, like a barber’s pole.

Might we be listening to an album within an album, a more complex song cycle hiding within the folds of an ambient electronic album? This ties in with another of Kaukolampi’s thematic frameworks - that of the mask. He references Oscar Wilde’s quotation that “Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.” As well as the cover (designed by TAL aka Tuomas A. Laitinen), the act of concealment, camouflage, and disguise can be readily heard in the “Subliminal world without words” created by the strange pseudo Latin language in ‘Ee-Nni-Aa-Ssa’, the breath sounds in ‘The Mask Of Sanity’ and the eerie vocal processing that haunts the album, part broken radio broadcast, part alien transmission. The “long periods alone” Kaukolampi spent with the record (in part aided by the pandemic) clearly paid dividends. This is nuanced, patient music.

Inside The Sphere is not a one-note album. For every moment where a clammy ambient space enters, a buttery analogue bassline is there to fill it. This clash seems to be the album’s engine room, its power supply. Timo references devotional and choir music as an influence on this album - in particular field recordings made by Ragnar Johnson and Jessica Mayer in the album Sacred Flute Music From New Guinea: Madang / Windim Mabu - and it’s possible to hear this in the stark but almost elegiacally exultant melodies strewn through the tracks. The paranoia and foreboding is tempered by these headier aspects. Kaukolampi mentions “empty and hollow spaces” in relation to several of the songs. Perhaps this is the very space behind the mask, where outward disguise merges with inner reality. Perhaps inside the sphere is not always such a bad place to be.

OM LP 26 - Kaukolampi - Inside The Sphere album (vinyl / digital album)

Future Chroma is an ambient duo of Stiletti-Ana and Casio G Url. They both have been playing music since they were kids and they both have always liked to create their own music instead of playing what others have composed. The duo met in 2018 when Casio G Url needed to buy a new synthesizer and couldn't decide which model to get. She came over to Stiletti-Ana's studio to try out a bunch of different synths to help her hard decision. That night they had a long jam and realized that they share a similar mind in music. The tape recorder was wired in and they recorded the basis of their first EP that was released in 2019 on Haista records.
Instead of hiding themselves and their music behind some mystic otherworldly figures, Stiletti-Ana and Casio G Url are just purely enthusiastic about playing their synthesizers and instruments and making music that they like. It's a cliché when a musician says that there was no producer or music industry head telling what to do, but honestly that never even came into Stiletti-Ana's or Casio G Url's mind that there could be someone telling them what to do to succeed. Future Chroma is doing only what they like and what they like the most are heavenly arpeggios, lovely melodies and super cosmic sounds.
In late 2019 Future Chroma packed their Nissan Micra full of equipment and drove to their secret hideout studio in the middle of Southern Finland forests. They had another really long jam and they recorded everything. Out of those sessions came the basis of their debut album called I. Finalizing a timeless piece of synthesizer music took longer than they expected and now finally 15.5.2023 the album sees the daylight. Their main influences on the record are Berlin School ambient and records made by pioneers of cosmic and electronic music such as Tangerine Dream, Suzanne Ciani, Pauline Oliveros and Laurie Spiegel just to name a few.
But their debut doesn't sound like anything out there, because it's Future Chroma's music and it's really good!
