Organic ambient and sweaty drones with Tokyo-via-Osaka DJ and selector Akie (@ak_is_error). Akie has cultivated an ear for rare sounds since coming of age, working for collectors’ favorite record store Rare Groove in Osaka. Now in Tokyo, she is a buyer for newtone records and released a mixtape on Bristol label do you have peace? in early 2022. Her mix is an exercise in restraint, effortlessly taking you exactly where your mind needs to be.

Akieは成長期から珍しい音源への感性を磨き、大阪のコレクター御用達レコード店Rare Grooveで働いていました。現在は東京に拠点を移し、newtone recordsのバイヤーとして活躍。2022年初頭にはブリストルのレーベル do you have peace? からミックステープをリリースしています。彼女のミックスは抑制の効いた演奏で、あなたの心が求める場所へ苦もなく連れて行ってくれます。最高です。

The Greater Good #15 with Akie / LYL Radio

Albert van Abbe & Jochem Paap join forces for General Audio. Recorded at Willem Twee studios in Den Bosch, General Audio explores a unique and esoteric approach to sound creation. Using test and measure equipment from the 1950s, originally designed for the maintenance of various audio and radio transmitters, van Abbe and Paap create otherworldly walls of sound and dense rhythmic abstractions with an early form of synthesis. Rudimentary signals are combined and processed before being committed to tape via mics set up to capture the Willem Twee studio’s unique acoustics. The equipment itself predates the invention of the analog, modular synthesizers developed in the ’70s that are now commonplace in many studios.

INTERVIEW

MNMT Premire: Albert Van Abbe & Jochem Paap - Wandel

Marco Shuttle at Floresta - Waking Life '22

Tankwart hails from the basement. The place where it can get beautifully cold and dark when being on your own, or warm and sweaty when dancing with friends. The place where social media lose reach and the reverb sounds so nice. You‘ll find him in his studio: a big mess that fosters his DIY production style. His musical interest starts when genres blend and punk is an approach. Wave, Triphop, Acid, Kosmische Musik. No cliches, blurred lines only.

Tankwart, also known as Bik, is a DJ, producer, and musician from Zurich. He is part of the band called Dâdalus & Bikarus and finds creative synergy with the label subject to restrictions discs. As an individual and part-time promoter Tankwart aims to unite diverse musical scenes in Zurich, fostering a bottom-up inspired local music community.

This is a re-recording of a set @compuma played at an April demonstration against the redevelopment of a Tokyo park that Ryuichi Sakamoto spoke passionately about before his death.

"We gathered in front of the trees scheduled to be cut down in Jingu Gaien to align with Sakamoto's attitude and will," organizers said.

Sound Theater Archives: Silence the Tongues of Prophecy

If you have the Gravikords, Whirlies and Pyrophones CD/book set, introduced by Tom Waits and nicely produced by Ellipsis Arts, you've already heard the shortened version of this song. This  post is of the original, longer version of Silence the Tongues of Prophecy.

Always fascinated by synthetic speech, as soon as the tech became available (early 1980's) I began building human voice synthesizers. In this recording I use an instrument built around the vintage SP0256-AL2 IC. 

The instrument, in fact, uses two SP0256-AL2s to create a stereo human voice synthesizer. Originally named the "R.A.P." (pre-dates popular rap music and stood for Readily Available Phonemes), I've since re-named it after discovering its circuit-bent personality: the Subliminal Chant Generator.

In the text sheet accompanying the IC I noticed a statement something like, "The SP0256-AL2 needs the control of an external microprocessor to concatenate allophones into words." Immediately I thought, "nah." 

After all, address lines are only voltage levels. I wanted to build a machine with which I could activate allophones manually, by pressing keys on a keyboard, a modern version of the classic 1940's Bell Labs Voder talking machine. 

I did that, and with the addition of the final bending of the circuit (allowing bits to float) the vast realm of subliminal chant appeared.

Here, however, the Subliminal Chant Generator operates in its more overt personality, delivering allophones with clear certainty. The subliminal aspect of the voice synthesis is not presented in this recording but will be in an upcoming post of songs from "Voice of America," a cassette album from my old Sound Theater catalog.

Joining the  Subliminal Chant Generator in this post is one of my first incantors (I'd not yet written about the design, at the time of the recording they couldn't be heard elsewhere). 

That's all you need to know to understand what you'll hear. If you'd like to know more about the instrument, check-out my Facebook post of Dec. 2, 2015 for an up-dated excerpt from my EMI article, "The Subliminal Chant Generator."
