Minimal, textural drones — emotionally resonant yet contemplative — capture the fragile beauty of morning light and the quiet promise of renewal.

This track is for relaxed listening, headphones on eyes closed. I have used samplers, synths and field recordings in its production.

On Board Music - Mix Series - Vector Trancer OB05

It is undeniable that we are living in uncertain times. For those of us failing to fit the patriarchal neoliberalist mould, we have lost hope in the future. We can see capitalism is not working but we cannot yet envisage an alternative. In a world where security is no longer feasible, the only constant we can rely on is change. Regardless of one’s point of reference, we can understand that every aspect of life, physical and mental is in flux and perhaps this transience is the only thing we can depend on.

This month we have invited @kamarujoseph to ruminate on these ideas and create an hour of relief from these anxieties. A temporary suspension of reality, where the listener can speculate on alternate modes of existence that reject hetero-patriarchal systems of oppression.

KMRU is the moniker of Joseph Kamaru, a sound artist, and producer based in Nairobi. He is a regular performer at the fabled Nyegenyege Festival having also presented live performances at CTM festival and Gamma Festival. Aside from his music production, KMRU has also been presenting a monthly show on Internet Public Radio and runs the Nairobi Ableton User Group community as well as developing projects on radio art and artificial intelligence. KMRU recently participated at Mutek Montreal AI Art Lab and Gamma Lab XR (2020) collaborating on artistic based projects on artificial intelligence and extended realities.

ELEVE, Antimatter
Madrid
Spain

Jorge Bule is one of the best kept secrets in Madrid. Clearly influenced by the electronic music of the 90s and dub techno of the Hardwax factory, his sound ranges from aquatic dub techno with field recordings and drones to the most textural ambient.
He is co-owner of ELEVE and Antimatter labels where he releases his own productions.

Jorge Bule 는 마드리드에서 가장 비밀스러운 인물 중 한명이다. 90년대의 음악과 Hardwax Factory 의 덥 테크노에 많은 영향을 받아, 그의 사운드는 필드 레코딩과 질감있는 앰비언트의 드론 사운드부터 청량한 덥 테크노로 범위지어진다.
그는 스스로의 작업물을 발매하는 ELEVE 와 Antimatter 레이블의 공동 설립자이다.

Polygonia [On Board Music Takeover]

Vrika is the moniker under the Spanish producer Fernando Blanco. 
His music is a mixture of hypnotic rhythms, ambient soundscapes and organic textures, with a tribal output. 
Starting from techno and moving into different subgenres, he has released music on PhonoTropismi, Doppt Zykler and other underground labels.
Recently founded the project RVD, alongside Discknoked and Randoom, focused on slow techno and live improvisations.

Archaic Podcast 336 - Redwan

F-on (Madrid, Spain) | ‘La escucha atenta’

La ‘escucha atenta’ (attentive listening) represents above all paying attention and concentrating on what is being heard. It requires a willingness to follow the reasoning of what is being told. The listener does nothing more than that: listen, interpet and understand. It is essential that the message is cordially accepted by the listener, as it is, creating a context of closeness and trust that facilitates the exchange of ideas from those who need to express themselves.

From a glacial surrounding, completely isolated and with nothing more than the blizzard strumming. An introspection from the deepest edges of oneself through the ascension to the clouds. A continuum of imaginary mental antonyms from cold / hot, human / non-human, good news / bad news, brightness / darkness, peace / war, freedom / slavery, antiquity / modernity, security / insecurity, gentleness / ferocity, looseness / tenseness…are just some of the crossroads we had when we listened to Alfonso’s storyline.
