In greek mythology the titan Mnemosyne (Μνημοσύνη) is the personification of memory and mother of the Muses. This new series of archival sonic mixes 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, ranging from finished songs to extracts of performances and jam sessions, to interviews and field recordings, and so on, to create a sonic self portrait.

MNEMOSYNE - 2022

https://soundcloud.com/macrogramma is the solo project of the sound designer & composer Matteo Mariano. He began his career in musical composition and experimentation by creating soundtracks for film/videos and for art exhibitions. 
In 2019, with the intention of cataloging and giving an editorial form to the material created during over 20 years of activity, he published three collections of pieces composed in different periods (Macrogramma Volume 1, Volume 2 and Volume 3). This operation of revision and rethinking of past materials is the starting point to complete several old compositions in the works for a long time and begin to create new original music unrelated to any audio/video projects. 

"What was a crucial sound experience in your life?"
"I don't know if there was actually a crucial sound experience in my life. I came to everything in stages: what I am now is the result of a chain reaction of many microfactors that have added up over the years. However, with the experience of making music for videos, I realized that music and noise are not separate things, there is no border between the two: even background noise can be music and even music alone, without the help of images or texts, can tell a story."

Sound material:
The material in this mix is primarily drawn from works released over the past two years. There are tracks that have been composed starting from score and then going through sound reworking, such as "Perché Dormiamo", or others that are born as improvisations which then achieve a complete form in post production.
Macrogramma's instrumentation is a quite typical instrumentation for electronic music: synths, piano, sampled instruments, tape machines, electric guitar and many guitar pedals also used as a pure sound source.
This podcast-mix was made by Phoan (https://phoan.bandcamp.com), a musician with whom Macrogramma currently often collaborates, and who also contributed to give the mix, with his attentive ear, a fresh and objective overview of the selection.

Tracklist and approximate timing:
1)(00:00) Perché Dormiamo (From the album "Trittico", ROHS! Records 2020)
2)(06:10) Metafonia III (From the album "Metafonie", Macrogramma 2020)

"What was a crucial sound experience in your life?"
For me the most important sound experience was when I was a child in the aquarium in Taiwan, there is a place where they put mics inside the acquarium in order to hear the fish talking and singing and the sounds underwater.
There were also whales and they make really fantastic sound!

“What was a crucial sound experience in your life?”
When I was around 12-13 years old I discovered harsh noise music and it completely blew my mind. I was already interested in many different kinds of music at that time, but noise opened me up to a world of sound where there are no limits at all, and I remember it made me feel some kind of purpose in life. I didn’t listen or make much noise for years now, but it definitely played a huge role in how I understand and listen to music and sound today

XIPE is an Italian-Mexican duo that sees the interaction between Giulia Deval’s voice and magnetic tapes and Ivan Bringas’ Guitarra Expansiva, an instrument based on the invention of mobile elements that interact with the neck of the acoustic guitar.
XIPE’s compositions are the result of a research into the possibilities offered by the construction of artefacts and the use of extended vocal techniques influenced by minimalism, freak folk and radical improvisation. In 2021, XIPE has been invited by the audiovisual research center Hangar of Barcelona for and International Residency in the frame of the AUDIOFORMAL Programme where it developed it’s debut album NEPANTLERAS.
The album was released on 1 April 2022 by zOaR Records (NY) mastered by Elliott Sharp.

What was a crucial sound experience in your life?
Giulia Deval: My crucial sound experience was seeing Limpe Fuchs live at the NNOI festival, in the Berlin countryside. Her set consisted of voice, huge metal bells and wooden marimbas.... it was something magical, ancient, antediluvian. Seeing an elderly woman playing, sitting with the audience in the meadow made me think a lot about the way I would like to grow old.
Ivan Bringas: For me it was when I saw Fred Frith live. I was 9 years old and he was playing in a festival organized by Jazzorca, venue and label in Mexico City founded by my father, where I grew up. He stimulated my curiosity for the extended techniques on the guitar.

MNEMOSYNE #035 - XIPE (Giulia Deval + Ivan Bringas)

SY/IN (https://soundcloud.com/alexortiga) is one of the projects by Alex Ortiga, Italian music producer and visual artist. The project's aesthetic focuses on the creation of worlds where digital and physical are intertwined and thus hard to recognise. Every SY/IN's record tries to create one of those different worlds and faces different themes, spacing from the relationship between man and data, economy, cryptocurrencies, psychological implications we are facing living in a world that changes quickly. SY/IN's sound is an abyss of light and darkness obtained through the mixture of traditional elements coming from both western and eastern classical music. Samples and drones are reworked and dismantled through granular and spectral synthesis to create ominous and distant soundscapes, capable of communicating the intimacy of the individual at the same time.

"What was a crucial sound experience in your life?"
I think my approach to music drastically changed when I was watching "Confessions" by Tetsuya Nakashima in 2010.
During one of the scenes at the end of the film the soundtrack is "Farewell" by Boris, when the wall of sound came out of the speakers and the screen I was astonished. It was the first time I heard something so powerful, loud but emotionally heartbreaking at the same time. I think my approach to what I felt music should convey was totally reconsidered from that point on, and I also think that my music compositions reflect these feelings.

Takeover Chantelouve Festival : Mona - 30 Octobre 2022

https://soundcloud.com/sh_o (aka Sankt aka Florian Sankt) is a musician, label co-owner & sound designer based in Berlin. In its current form, Shō uses field recordings, synthesizers, found sound, tape and various acoustic instruments to explore themes like memory, space/place or autobiography. 
"I hope this mix will give listeners an insight into my process and inspirations. It features many field recordings from my archive, various raw jams and sketches, unfinished and even abandoned pieces, as well as a few upcoming tracks that were made recently."

„What was a crucial sound experience in your life?“
I don't think there was a formative sound I experienced that made me think „Wow, I need to get into sound design“, but here are two things I can think of: Playing with rubberbands as a kid, holding them close to my ears and hearing how the sound changes when I pull more or less. Having my first guitar as a teenager and instead of learning chords, I would rather use my multi-effects pedal to create strange sounds with it (should've learned some more chords in hindsight). Also getting into field recording and participating in soundwalks changed everything.
