Chaque hiver, une étendue glaciaire dérivante se forme en mer de Russie à partir d’un mélange d’eau de mer et d’eau douce qui se dé-place progressivement vers Shiretoko. Durant ce processus, la glace se charge de phytoplancton. Ce qui fait d'elle une mer riche pour la pêche. Avec le réchauffement climatique, le phénomène diminue d’année en année. L’écologie marine en est bouleversée.

Son œuvre comprend des installations sonores, des peintures, des œuvres vidéo, des performances sonores et des œuvres audios dévoilées dans des lieux au Japon et à l’étranger.

OOH-sounds family members more eaze, pardo & glass join forces on a celestial album linking ambient neo-folk, fractured electronics and romantic escapism.

Referencing to Wim Wenders' 1984 road-movie drama masterpiece, ‘paris paris, texas texas’ is a strikingly cinematic tapestry of americana, resampled guitars, glistening electronics, subtle field recordings and processed vocals.

The beginnings of this project date back to the summer of 2022 when pardo and glass started recording some improvisations in a small studio with the aim of making an experimental guitar record. Over time, the drafts developed into mesmerizing slabs of guitar textures, simultaneously immense and intimate. No material was better suited for more eaze to add to the recordings her transversal and sensitive approach, linking the past and the present.

Ranging from gentle ambient folk to winding pedal steel passages, from twinkling electronics to distorted drones, ‘paris paris, texas texas’ is an album that’s not just “atmospheric”, it conjures its own unique atmosphere from thin air. Like a snake shedding its skin, the record slowly mutates from track to track - an epiphany, a transformation, a tangible and perceptible moment. Despite its distant trans- Atlantic origins, it evokes a warmth and intimacy that is hard to deny, an emotion that has perhaps been held back for too long. A landmark release in OOH’s catalogue, capturing the magic of its curation and sensibility in one sublime record.

The supernatural, the fantastic, the eerie....nobile, from former Milanese duo Voronoi, presents a new work of ‘cavernous' sounds, organic throbs and broken rhythmic textures.

“a fantastic journey inside the body, perhaps also a journey into the unconscious to understand my gastritis?”

Taken from 'Alien Intelligence' out now on a limited edition vinyl and download > https://ooh-sounds.bandcamp.com/album/jasmine-guffond-alien-intelligence

Through the medium of a distinctly synthesised, sustained ambience, seasoned artist and composer @jasmineguffond arrives on OOH-sounds to explore the tension between technology and human creativity in an increasingly ambiguous playing field.

Alien Intelligence came into being during Guffond’s residency at fabled Parisian institution GRM in 2021. While learning how to generate sound and make music with the in-house Serge modular synthesiser, the Australian artist noticed the typical role of human input for machine output was being subverted by the behaviour of certain electronic elements, which came to exercise their own influences on the direction of the music.

Taking this idea one step further, Guffond proceeded to explore the programming environment MaxMSP, a customisable interface which allowed her to blur the lines between human input and machine directives even further. Across the three extended pieces which make up Alien Intelligence you can hear the results of Guffond’s inquisitive approach as she coaxed the machines into bringing their own ideas to bear on the music.

The tension inherent in this thematic duality is mirrored by the contrast between glacial ambience and chaotic interference across the album. On ‘Serge & Maxine Variation One’ the presiding mood is a slow and patient one, as undulating waveforms rich with harmonic overtones spill out over one another across 10 minutes. The track’s latter passage, driven by steadily intensifying oscillations, is then interrupted with an unexpected flurry of pitch shifting. This kind of complex technical movement features more prominently at the start of ‘Serge & Maxine Variation Three’, which then gradually shifts into a gentler ebb and flow of rising and falling frequencies.

Angled slightly differently and residing on the B side of the album, 15-minute quiet epic ‘Serge & Maxine Variation Two’ bookends a louder passage of synth work with serene, sustained notes that ring out a sort of hymnal melody. Throughout, the movement in the music evolves in subtly modulating, hypnotic, ways, but there are also unexpected turns or melodic diversions which feel much more incongruous. In its closing stretch, the notes dart around more freely as though played by hand, but it’s hard to be sure whether these shifts in the otherwise delicate tonal music were a human conceit or a programming by-product. In the end, the two inputs logically become one.

As Guffond says herself, “More-than-human logics emerge, a kind of alien intelligence that questions an assumed central position of human subjectivity in socio-technical assemblages and considers the philosophical, socio-political and cultural implications beyond music practice in an increasingly technologically mediated world.”

As AI creeps into art as much as other aspects of modern life, Guffond applies her playful instinct to the theme of these works by reconsidering machine intelligence as ‘alien’, crediting its contributions with a more robust yet enigmatic identity in the creative process, leading to an end result which is far from artificial.

French producer @synalegg returns to @ooh-sounds with Computer Series / Last Run - the final chapter in his radical generative music experiment. Built in Pure Data, Synalegg’s system composes autonomously, creating immersive, unpredictable sound worlds that blur the line between human design and machine logic.

The result recalls Autechre’s algorithmic precision, Jimmy Edgar’s Michaux project, and the mechanical curiosity of Aphex Twin’s Computer Controlled Acoustic Instruments Pt2 - yet feels entirely its own. Glitching rhythms, fractured harmonics, and fleeting human cadences emerge from the code, forming an uncanny balance between control and surrender.

A bold statement on authorship, automation and abstraction —-Computer Series / Last Run closes Synalegg’s exploration of machine-driven composition.

'Reification' is taken from last split-vinyl of the Decouple ][ Series shared with Oliver Coates [OOH-015]  https://bit.ly/2HzjdFB

In Gestalt psychology, ‘Reification’ is the generative aspect of perception, by which the experienced perception contains more explicit information than the sensory stimulus on which it is based.

Third in a series of six split-vinyls on the topics of increasing complexity, dependencies and miscommunication in a media saturated digital era.

"In software engineering d e c o u p l i n g is generally all about discerning whether or not two components need to closely work together or can be further made independent. Independence is great because it makes those things easy to change or use somewhere else. Usually, you can't remove coupling between components completely. D e c o u p l i n g in that context normally means loosening the existing coupling, making sure each component knows as little as possible about the other components around it”.
