“This film is one of those revelatory experiences that make you want to get up and do something.'' (WIM WENDERS)

When a living legend like Wim Wenders ("Paris, Texas"; "The Million Dollar Hotel"; "Buenavista Social Club”) decides to appear as a future version of himself in a movie, there must be something outstanding about it. The idea of the film is brilliant: We see our time through the eyes of our grandchildren, many years ahead. By the means of a fable, disguised as a documentary from the future, we understand that the era we critizise so much will actually be seen as the good old days. A true eye-opener.

Gary Marlowe began playing piano at four, turned into a synthesizer prodigy and much respected “synth god”, shared the stage with Iggy Pop and The Ramones, became a No.1 hit songwriter, and Gold Record winning producer. He is an official Steinway Artist, and has won numerous international awards for his film scores, which combine synthesizers, piano, electronica and orchestra to create unexpected, beautifully human sound worlds.

The choice of instruments was crucial to elevate the overall impression of the movie. Almost mythical organs, like the Farfisa Compact Duo Deluxe (as once used in early Pink Floyd) or a Philicorda, both made in 1967, were brought out as well as vintage synthesizer icons like the Minimoog, the Arp Solina or the monstrous Oberheim OB-8. To help the narrative, Gary Marlowe integrated a new sound aesthetic in the music dramaturgy of the film, with the help of the research teams of manufacturers like Arturia in France, or Bristol-based Modal Electronics, who provided brand new instruments to the artist, to create mesmerizing sounds which no audience has ever heard before.

To maximise the acoustic quality, Marlowe called in one of his favorite mixing engineers, to finalize the score together. Hans-Martin “HM” Buff, formerly personal engineer of Prince, joined the composer again, to carefully mix all those wonderful, delicate or thundering sounds into an exciting musical landscape. A landscape of a fragile future, which is still in our hands to define.

“A science fiction film about exctinction? To me, this is one of the most pressing topics of our time, and it is dangerously late to be addressed. Making and watching this movie is better than signing a hundred petitions.” (Gary Marlowe)

DR-83; DAVID CORDERO & MIGUEL OTERO - A Possible Distance is due out on CD / DL October 14th

dronarivm.bandcamp.com

The world is undergoing severe social and political changes in a short time that has taken individualism to the far extreme.

For this reason Possible Distances is a reflexion on the gap between human relations and everyday life; distance and closeness. The immediacy and the small personal moments that make us feel even more alone.

Written in the distance, Cordero and Otero build a bridge between their recording studios with minimalist melodies wrapped in luminous skies to enhance common places while nature takes its course.

After Salinas (Archives, 2020) and Distension (Playneutral, 2021), this work together brings us the kindness of small daily details.

ILUITEQ - In Danger

Hey, you remember the Icelandic independent imprint called INNI Music, yes? It opened up with Atli Örvarsson's You Are Here back in 2020, and then there was Rose Riebl's Do Not Move Stones in 2021, followed up with Jónsi, Sin Fang, Alex Somers, Kjartan Holm's Sounds of Fischer Vol. 1 a year after, all of which have consistently made to my Best of the Year lists, in every single year. Right. So, yes, this is the same Holm from that Jónsi (of Sigur Rós fame) collaboration, this time with a solo release. Hailing from Reykjavik, Kjartan Holm is a musician and a film composer with half a dozen scores under his belt. This album, titled HORIZON, was originally written for a same-named documentary about the late Icelandic painter Georg Guðni, "whose innovative interpretations of forms and ideas paved the way for a renaissance in Icelandic landscape painting." The music, as conveyed in a piece I am premiering for you today, is capturing the vast and sprawling atmospheres, blending abstract textures with ethereal melodies in pastel haze, shifting tones, and wide brushstrokes. You don't even need to look up the paintings to see the resemblance (but I recommend that you do). Lovely tonalities to get lost in on this one, and I recommend that you pick up the album, in just a few days...

Maarten van der Vleuten & Grey Lotus - I Break The Waves (Somfay Remix)

The sights and sounds of a summer afternoon converge to create the most memorable mental photos of a town where no one wants to leave, filled with the sounds no one will ever forget. Childhood laughter is accompanied by a distant surf crashing upon a pebbled shoreline under the occasional chimes of clock tower bells. Capture that place in time the entire family will remember for generations to come. https://www.michigan.org/kids-attractions
