Tracklist: 
1) Skymning - Sfär

3) Skymning - Valv

Step into hibernation, and give the space that surround you a warm welcome. Close your eyes and think about those places where you felt something, a feeling that fulfilled you, a feeling that lasted. As fantasies and memories become increasingly lucid, you feel your mind opening up. You are restarting. Recharging. Starting to power back up. At this point you’ve almost reached a state of dormancy, at this point you are ready to listen to Dvala.

“Before I made this new project I myself was in a kind of musical dormancy, I was fed up with all the commercial music only made to sell. I wanted to create something from the essance of life, something that would last longer, something that would connect with the human mind.”

Dvala consists of three tracks that aim to take the listener on a musical journey through soundscapes that reflect the beauty of nature, through complex thoughts about life and the echo of beating hearts.

Dvala will be released the 11th of november across all major streaming plattforms.

Premiere: Skymning - Valv [waves / longitudinalwaves]

Where little droplets meet to form a larger current. Streams amassing slowly, joining their numbers and creating something ever larger.
A million paths, with only a single final destination. Endless possibilities slowly extracted into a single definitive past.

03 Into The Fire

Ryan Lee West aka Rival Consoles has announced his fourth full length album 'Persona' will be released on 13th April via Erased Tapes.

The title 'Persona' was inspired by Ingmar Bergman’s film of the same name, specifically a shot in the opening credits of a child reaching out to touch a woman’s face on a screen, which is shifting between one face and another. This powerful image struck Ryan and it inspired the album’s main theme — an exploration of the persona, the difference between how we see ourselves and how others see us, the spaces in between; between states, people, light and dark, the inner persona and the outer persona. 

"My music is generally is generally inward looking. I like finding something about the self within music, that doesn't have to be specific but maybe asks something or reveals something. This record is a continuation on the self through electronic sounds. Like Legowelt once said ‘a synthesiser is like a translator for unknown emotions’, which I think sums up what I am trying to do. I think all these emotions we have make up our persona. So in a way by finding new ones you alter or expand your persona. And that is what I want my music to try to do. I deliberately aimed to be more sonically diverse with this record. I wanted to experiment more. I wanted to create new sounds and new emotions.”

Recorded at his studio in south-east London, ‘Persona’ benefits from Ryan’s exploration of a dynamic production process that combines analogue-heavy synthesisers, acoustic and electric instruments with a shoegaze-level obsession with effect pedals. A greater depth of emotion and confidence can be heard across the album. From the deconstructed movements on ‘Unfolding’ that starts the album with a snap of delayed snares, the apocalyptic drones of the title track and thundering drums in ‘Phantom Grip’ to more  restrained ambient feels of ‘Dreamer’s Wake’, ‘Rest’ and ‘Untravel’. The latter transverses six beatless minutes of undulating melodies representing “a limbo space, a feeling of ennui, of not really ever being known to others and others not ever really being known to you”.

'Be Kind' reveals a musical connection with fellow Erased Tapes artist Nils Frahm, with its minimal approach and improvisational nature. On the more complex sounding ‘I Think So’ Ryan aims to replicate a colour collage with sound. Like a musical kaleidoscope, a flashing and convoluted mass. Written after he saw Slowdive perform live last year, ‘Hidden’ builds from whispers to landscapes of controlled noise. In an interview with XLR8R magazine, Ryan explains: “once you start trying to make a sound loud, then you turn your back on thousands and thousands of sonic possibilities. One of the best things to do is to start a track with a really quiet, weak sound.” Taking this idea to its ultimate conclusion, ‘Fragment’ closes the album as an innocent sounding ambient piece, almost nursery rhyme like, yielding time for reflection on how the persona has changed.

'Persona' follows the success of a series of releases — the ‘Odyssey’ and ‘Sonne’ EPs, long player ‘Howl’, and 2016’s mini album ‘Night Melody’ — that saw Ryan mature into what Pitchfork has called a “forward-thinking electronic musician with his own ideas about sound”. Atypical of instrumental-electronic music, Ryan has achieved a signature sound that’s unmistakably identifiable as Rival Consoles. Going beyond typical electronic music production, Ryan defines it as “songwriting with an electronic palette of sounds”.

The increasingly dynamic live audio-visual show, born from bespoke performances at the Tate and for Boiler Room at the V&A Museum featuring self-programmed visuals in Max/MSP, has propelled him to play around the world. Ryan launches ‘Persona’ at London’s XOYO on 12th April with further dates to be announced.

It’s been a while. We’ve made various inner and outer journeys since we last released any music. We’ve fumbled in the bright of day with almost everything and not until recently has these journeys naturally taken the shape of music. But we’re in a better place now, on a much better path.

  Cold Walks is the first sign of an untitled album, set to be released when the Swedish winter kicks in. We sincerely hope you’ll enjoy it. /Julius & Joakim

Lyrics:
Heavy street lights, a heavy night again.
This ain't the way we, this ain't the way we used to live.
Clouds around us, the clouds among us turn up dead.
Inside the sun, inside the sun never really ends.

Still you want to go, walk in the cold.
By yourself, all alone, a low face in the snow.
Still you want to go, walk in the cold.
By yourself, all alone, a low face in the snow.

These bars won't kill me, but I rather find another end.
Another way to, another way to see my friends.
Clouds around us, the clouds inside us are all dead.
This can't be the only, the only way to go to bed.

Still you want to go, walk in the cold.
By yourself, all alone, a low face in the snow.
Still you want to go, walk in the cold.
By yourself, all alone, a low face in the snow.

Cold Walks

Our debut album The Fall Issue is out now!

The Fall Issue

The Fall

Late night experiments with cello bows on electric guitars, a camping trip with borrowed synths in the woods of Östergötland and a DIY debut that mysteriously made its way into HBO’s The Young Pope is what initiated the journey for Julius Norrbom and Joakim Andersson. The Swedish duos self taught and open approach to electronic music continues to evoke imploding soundscapes and minimalistic narratives in constant flux.
