20ft Radio Mix

Fasaan Rec. Episode #2 @ Mutant Radio w/ Prins Emanuel, Golden Ivy & Inre Kretsen Grupp

Artist: Jan Jelinek
Title: SEASCAPE - polyptych (OST)
Cat#: faitiche 31
Release: April 28th 2023
Format: LP/DL

One of the most notorious hatemongers in movie history is Captain Ahab from John Huston’s 1956 classic Moby Dick. His manic monologues cast a spell on generations of viewers. Berlin based musician and sound artist Jan Jelinek has now turned the voice of Ahab into a musical instrument.

Faitiche presents Jan Jelinek's soundtrack for SEASCAPE – polyptych, an audio-visual software developed in collaboration with Canadian new media artist Clive Holden in 2022.
SEASCAPE – polyptych is based on image and acoustic source material from Moby Dick. While Holden works on manipulating film sequences, the voice of Ahab plays a central role in Jan Jelinek’s soundtrack. The dynamic volume and tone of the captain's speech control a synthesizer system that turns Ahabs voice into ten abstract soundscapes.

In this production the voice gives the impulse and controls things but is not the sound of spoken word itself that we hear. Only occasionally can snippets of speech be heard so that syllables or sounds are recognisable. Instead we hear compositions made of hissing, soundscapes and eruptive sounds. The atmosphere is dark and sinister. Still every piece has a clear sonic structure and follows an understandable dramatic composition. This music is abstract but not overwhelming. Quite the opposite, SEASCAPE – polyptych is an invitation to listeners to let themselves be carried by the stream of sonic events.
 
Although part of a media art work, the soundtrack can be enjoyed without any of this connecting superstructure. It works with no previous knowledge. But what happens when one does know that it’s the sonic waves of a human voice that is controlling a network of synthesizers?

If you want to hear Ahab, you will hear a choir of Ahabs in every piece of sound. The subliminal threatening as well as the conjuring Ahab. Finally the Ahab who whips up his crew and tears them with him into their downfall. The majestic „on the quay now, waiting and watching“, the oppressive “drawn towards the whirlpools center” - they are all music as well as sonic discourse.

Imagine yourself standing on the shore, the gentle breeze caressing your face as you gaze out at the expansive ocean stretching endlessly before you...The rhythmic crashing of the waves resonates with the cosmic rhythms, creating a harmonious symphony of nature...As you immerse yourself in this moment, you begin to feel the thinning of the doors of perception, signaling the start of a transformative journey, where the gate to transcendence beckons you—the Gate to the Waves Temples...

This sacred structure houses ancient wisdom, its depths holding the key to unlocking the divine mysteries of the universe....Its architecture undulates, mirroring the ebb and flow of life itself...Symbolism and ethereal fog...Mysticism and wonder...Depending on one's individual perception of reality, it becomes a canvas for countless allegories, a reflection of the profound and enigmatic nature of existence...

Among these allegories are the Islands of Radiant Awakening...Emerging from the depths of the collective unconscious, these mystical realms shimmer with creative energy and transformative power...They transcend the boundaries of physicality, existing as ethereal sandscapes that invite exploration...Stepping foot on these islands is an invitation to transcend the limitations of human perception, to dissolve the veils that separate the spiritual and material realms...

Bamboo Shows 076 - Kundalini Shaktipata w/ metra.vestlud
Infos, Links & Podcast Series: www.bambooshows.com/metravestlud-bs076
@metra_vestlud

while we're looking to the near future and 'Charly Markarian - Jeunesse ne passe pas' publication, we're keeping an eye on the past. Inviting today on Bamboo Shows guestmix series dear metra.vestlud, who released last year on our label the magnificent 'Coalyqsta' cassette album. The Russian artist, through his 'Kundalini Shaktipata' mix, gathered 1 hour and 45 minutes of spiritual fourth-world, meditative drone, avant-garde jazz, neoclassical acts and blissful new-age... all explanations below:

"This mix is a ritual instrument aimed at awakening the hidden divine force - Kundalini - within a person.

There are two approaches to awakening Kundalini: active and passive.
The active approach includes yoga practices, meditation, and special breathing techniques.
The passive approach is when you need to surrender and let go of all obstacles on the path to awakening.
The key in the passive approach is Shaktipat. Shaktipat is a message, phrase, or word. In this case, this mix is a transmission of knowledge from higher consciousness.

Shaktipat only temporarily raises Kundalini but provides an experience that can be used as a foundation for further development.

PS: If you don't feel well or you feel like something has ignited inside you after listening to this mix, don't miss the opportunity and seek out a healer or chakra specialist.
But not in any case to a hospital or something like that."
