We sent Agustin Genoud’s “devoiced” (TRR-007) to different artists and asked them to use it as raw sonic material, a starting point to build their own narratives or do whatever they want with it. The result is a collection of remixes, reworks and completely new musical ideas pierced by the cyber-swamp textures of the original piece.

Elvin Brandhi - Shelf Life (EP)*OUT NOW*

Format: Digital, Cassette
Cat.No: CANVAS003

*

“
Sickness unto death in an age of commodified well-being: approaching death from the point of view of an actualised virtual eternity. The commodification of daily life and the self, preclude the possibility of reincarnation, we do not identify ourselves as a cycle, a movement, an expression of life itself but as a single product that exists in and for itself.
 
The supermarket social network obliterates the surface of material hybridising, detaining all movement to self enclosed unit reductions, excommunicating mutation. Encapsulated in a fixed identity, packaged and promoted, immune to the infection of outsiders. The social contract of a pre-sealed self, branded with calculated sell by date, sentenced to a shelf life of inter-passive exchange.  
 
Shelf Life compiles this synthetic axis, upon which we bide out time smiling.  
Interrupt user: authorise disk-root conflict[ 
”

Elvin Brandhi is welcomed to the index of C.A.N.V.A.S. releases as the first solo release of 2019 and the third commission since the conversion from events series to label in 2018. As a performance nomad whose very practice is simultaneously about engagement with place and a lack of geographic singularity - there could not be a more fitting accomplice to C.A.N.V.A.S.’ effort as a self-publishing artist group to build a collaborative community despite increasing dispersion. This is the solo project of Welsh artist Freya Edmondes - otherwise known for her role as vocalist in father/daughter duo Yeah You - in which performances mesh a collage of electronic sounds with a disruptive stream of improvised vocals. These tracks are as close to studio versions as this fundamentally live practice gets - roaming recordings, sample blasts, club contortions and the ever present voice alchemically infused. In 25’46” of sound, Elvin’s bio-technological monster appears like a Cronenberg body horror - mouths appearing where they shouldn’t - or a living, breathing post-digital Beckett character narrating their own club induced self-destruction. Yet the future shock is fresh - Shelf Life is as fun to listen to as it is completely disarming.

Functory 03 is the third compilation from FunctionLab will be released on August 5, 2019.

After the practice and introspection of the “localization of the vanguard scene” in the past two years, we proudly started from Hangzhou and have extended our tentacles to a farther geographical space; Collecting music from all over the world and converging into functionlab's own "smell”, self-centred yet separated from self-expression.

Functory 03 contains 12 tracks produced by Akito/ bela/ GG Lobster/ GUAN/ Kieran Loftus/ Laughing Ears/ Mice/ Mr.Pena/ XHANKONKON/ XOXO Miro/ Yikii/ Zean

The cover and MV are made by Hangzhou artists Zhou Yilun and Martin Goya Business & Cheng Ran respectively.
