Ruinas Futuras

𝓢𝔀𝓲𝓷𝓮 𝓟𝓻𝓮𝓶𝓲𝓮𝓻𝓮 ✦ @mira-shindento ✦

"Symchthonia" is a word derived from the ancient Greek συμ (together) and χθών (earth/soil). Forged by philosopher Donna J. Haraway it means "the coming together of the earthly ones".

MIRA新伝統 (Honami Higuchi / Raphael Leray): "Since we wanted this short hymn to be rooted in our reality rather than ecstatic escapism or complaisant dystopia the composition is balanced between urban field recordings and synthetic sound design."

Martina Berther and Philipp Schlotter are prolific in their respective ways, having been active in pop and jazz music, respectively, as well as playing in bands and exploring the outer fringes of sound art or composing music for film. Their first joint album »Matt« was recorded over the course of four days in a church in the Swiss village after which the album was named. Berther and Schlotter worked with the buildingʼs organ as well as synthesizers and electric bass to follow an experimental approach that oscillated between composition and free improvisation. The five pieces, recorded directly to tape by Flo Götte without any additional overdubs, are characterised by an intimacy and rawness that calls to mind the introspective atmosphere of Hallow Ground label mateʼs FUJI||||||||||TA or mastering engineer Lawrence Englishʼs latest album for the Swiss label. »Matt« is the result of two versatile composers and musicians executing minimalist ideas by giving them plenty of space to unfold.

The album opens with »Unruhe,« a composition that is based on the twelve-tone technique. Using a stopwatch to ensure the adherence to the pre-determined temporal intervals between the individual notes, Berther and Schlotter used the church organ and synthesizers for an ominous piece that traverses different moods and levels of intensity throughout its 14-minute run time. »LFO1« and »LFO2« are different variations of the same concept: Based on a synthesizer preset and structured by an organ drone, two tone generators slowly fall silent, resulting in elegiac pieces that call to mind the work of Éliane Radigue. »Frachter« and »Gallia« put more emphasis on percussive elements. Again working with organ as well as Bertherʼs prepared electric bass, this improvisation comprises interlocking textures that sound almost menacing on »Frachter,« while they create a very different atmosphere on »Gallia.« These notable discrepancies in sound and mood are even more astonishing if you consider that the two pieces are based on the exact same recording, played at different speeds.

As two variations on the same idea with very different results, these two pieces perfectly represent how the duo effectively creates emotionally affective sound worlds with very few means. Berther and Schlotterʼs conceptual minimalism yields rewarding, multi-faceted aesthetic results. »Matt« is an intimate album, marked by a sense of vividness and spontaneity, but also the product of compositional conciseness.

MARTINA BERTHER / PHILIPP SCHLOTTER - LFO 1 (HG2305)

Giovanni Corgiat makes his debut in the extended format and releases his first album under the Catalan label Hedonic Reversal. This Italian artist is a sound perfectionist and a dedicated composer who constantly explores new musical forms due to his diverse training. He graduated in Electronic Engineering from the Politecnico di Torino, completed his studies in Electronic Music Production at the SAE Institute in Milan, and obtained a degree in Electroacoustic Music Composition from the Conservatory "Giuseppe Verdi" in Turin. His dissertation focused on the development of morphing systems and the integration of musical elements.

Antropo-Amorfo is his first album, but it is also an audiovisual project developed with Riccardo Franco-Loiri, aka Akasha, a promising Italian visual artist, member of the prestigious High School of Music and member of the consolidated High Files collective that Akasha co-founded in 2018. The result is a fine speculation on the perception of sound and its relation to human nature, combined with an innovative and creative investigation into digital abstract art. Antropo-Amorfo has already been presented as A/V performance at events such as Paratissima Festival (Ita), Apolide Festival (Ita) and Blues Rauschen (Ger).

ANTROPO-AMORFO A/V project was born by the fortuitous encounter between Giovanni Corgiat Mecio aka Corgiat and Riccardo Franco-Loiri, aka Akasha. The Live Show was conceived by mixing abstraction with concrete forms through extreme manipulation of data and signals in order to seek the point of contact between the ephemeral and the tangible world.

All tracks have been composed using analog synths and processors, real instruments. Raw and free recordings of voice (Claudio lo Russo, Luana Monisteri, Giulia Impache), percussions (Davide Broggini), saxophone (Angelo Rodio), double bass and cello (Piero Poli) have been stretched, morphed and filter to create an interpenetration between physical, analog and digital world. The result is a bpm-less continuous flow of gestures that follow one another spontaneously.

Corgiat at the audio with Ableton live, controller and analog gear communicates with Akasha’s Touchdesigner instances through MAX/MSP patches and OSC in real time, creating an endless A/V flow that hypnotises the audience while sparking new existential questions around human essence.

Release date: July 6th, 2023.

Wetware Echo presents Residual Image, a compilation aimed to collect different perspectives on a common theme: the hijacking, disassembly and recombination of sonic DNA. From woofer-shredding distorted soundscapes to hi-pressure rhythmic solutions, this collection of tracks represents the residual image of a common vision shared among thirteen different artists, each bringing their signature sound in a narrative continuum exploring different evolutionary branches. Spanning across a broad spectrum of genres and moods, what emerges is a future-proof pool of sound data, ready and open to be re-encoded differently at each listen.

Kratu (https://soundcloud.com/see-serenadibiase) - the androgynous name of Serena Dibiase - identifies her artistic and sounds productions, mixing experimental vocals, sound art, performing arts, poetry. He carries out her artistic investigation starting from intense physical/respiratory practices and through analogue and not-analogue devices to listen to radical phonic geographies, choral happenings, interventions on biophonies and geophonies extracted from recording sessions in abandoned, wild, industrial spaces, in a horizontal treatment of the sources. Her next EP Nostalgia for the Androgynous - a telluric/ethereal sonic dimension for voices and concrete sounds - will be released by Maga Circe Label, curated by Donato Dozzy in 2024. 
Her latest book of poetry Erbario da bocca, is soon to be published by MC editions

MNEMOSYNE #059 - KRATU

Blink Of An Eye

MNEMOSYNE w/ Myalo & Rogian (16.03.2024)

Wave Channel is back with a late April Episode featuring Myalo.
 
Diving into different topics ranging from sociology to neuroscience, conscious and unconscious behaviors, Myalo aims to explore the different aspects of what we call mind/soul through his musical experiments. Guided by everydays sound, media malfunctions and aleatoric composition, Myalo’s sound ranges from introspective ambient works constellated by fragmented textures to slow and bassy rhythmic tracks and high pitched digital glitches. 

To further explore the mind, Myalo started MNEMOSYNE, both a label and a memory driven mix series of “sound collages”, where artists can musically describe themselves with all kinds of sound data and influences.

For this episode on Wave Channel he maps out a comprehensive landscape of contemporary electronic music, layering a variety of sounds for a new sonic journey.

Welcome to the Wave.

Wave Channel Ep. 18: Myalo

"Here we celebrate memory, the most precious gift of life, the only root of dreams, inspiration and knowledge"

-------------------------------

MNEMOSYNE is a series of archival sonic mixes that wants to celebrate Memory, as it covers the most important role in creativity, progress and life itself.
By presenting a different vision of it on each episode, participants will distill memories and ideas that formed their projects, using a variety of audio materials to create a sonic self portrait.
