FORCES (LIVE) [FAILED UNITS X TAR COMMON MULTIVERSE INITIATIVE]

The first full-length collaboration between Burning Pyre and Canadian Rifles, “The Snipe & The Clam” encapsulates a shared sensibility and vision. Initially seen together on the Vienna Press/Vaagner compilation “A Declaration” in 2019, which was followed up with a second piece last year on Burning Pyre’s Opal Tapes debut, “United Angels”, the two artists cultivate a unique aural world with a singular voice.

Taking a contemporary yet deeply romantic approach to ambient music, “The Snipe & The Clam” showcases a blend of luscious synth melodies and harmonics, set against a heavily organic dynamic backbone. An apt representation of both artists’ methods and modus operandi, opulent glimmering drones flow with a sense of narrative, contributing a magical watercolour-like quality to the album’s eight instrumental pieces. As if lightness met the restraint of a disciplined wrist - every sharp note a pensive flap of wings across its airy background.

“The Snipe & The Clam” often feels like an emotional exercise on the stoppage of time, gliding between loving gestures and precise crescendos, delivering both a flourish of exposition and a reflection on intimate moments. A definitive summit in each respective artists’ discographies until this point, “The Snipe & The Clam” is an elegy to tenderness and finding beauty in minute details.

A golden archway - come spring.

Direct Message

@mutate3k
Emotional material manifests itself in many different forms. Sometimes it flows like a river, rolls like a wave or pours like rain. The fluidity of emotional experience makes sense as our bodies are mostly made up of water – life's matter and matrix, mother and medium.

It is time to let go of your fear and doubts. You must learn to embrace the darkness of your soul, for it is a light beacon of hope for humanity. Your soul wants to show itself in its truest form, strength, perseverance, courage and determination of spirit. In this lifetime your soul needs to cleanse and open its feelings for katharsis. This current physical lifetime offers you a new leaf, to be able to learn to balance obsolete, distorted behaviors.

The Flow of Water

Known for his icy and atmospheric sounds, @apeak bursted onto the scene in 2018 with 'Creed' - a spectacular debut, followed by 'Desolate' EP, released on Signal Life.

Now part of the Noah Kin (Exploited Body) founded Changeless label, APEAK has released two projects 'Grey Skies' & 'Empyrean' both in 2020. APEAK has a sense for melodies sung by disembodied, synthesised voices meshed with cavernous drums and heady soundscapes that come together to form a distinct and singular palette.

Alongside Exploited Body, APEAK remixed Posh Isolation and Northern Electronics affiliate Varg²™'s "Placing My Iphone X Facing up to See When U Answer My Texts” from his album 'Crush' in 2019.

HYPERLINK MIX #10 w/ apeak

bela - 15/09/2020

@ancestralvision is a Prague-based producer, dj and is the co-founder of @unizonelabel. They started Unizone together with @djnotsureyet in 2017. After 2 years of heavy partying and showcasing producers from all over the world (Imaabs, Kablam, Wulffluw XCIV), Unizone shifted their focus to label activities and regular biweekly radio show on Radio1.cz

Unizone head honcho enjoys heavy beats and dirty breaks as much as he loves bold emotional melodies, calm soundscapes or spiritual choirs. It makes perfect sense that you can find all of these elements in his hybrid-club production and mixes. 

Ancestral Vision is currently working on his debut EP :)
