________________

Since yeyeh brought them together in 2019 to record their first collaborative album, Swallow a Party, Oceanic and Greetje Bijma have become firm friends. The connection they first felt in the studio has led not only to the regular exchange of musical ideas and song sketches, but also lengthy conversations about life and art.

One of the strongest connections that helped shape their growing creative partnership is not musical, but personal. Both grew up in coastal communities at different ends of the Netherlands and the sensory impact of living close to the North Sea and Wadden Sea, respectively, made a long-lasting impression.

This connection gave them an idea: why not use the Wadden Sea, an intertidal zone of the North Sea situated between the Frisian Islands and the Dutch Coast, as a thematic inspiration for their next album. Oceanic and Bijma exchanged memories of wonderous wetlands, the salty smell of sea air, seemingly never-ending tidal mudflats, the distinctive calls of rare seabirds, and the look and feel of local flora and fauna. 

When they gathered in Studio Het Rode in Roderwolde for three days of improvised recordings based on existing ideas, Oceanic and Bijma set out to create music, through a mixture of voice and electronics, inspired by the mental sounds and images that appeared when they thought about the Wadden Sea’s celebrated landscapes. Extended improvisations were recorded, before Oceanic edited them down and they collaborated shaped the finished versions with added texture and structure.

The resultant album, Sykheljende Lûden (Frisian for “breathing sounds”), wears its central inspiration lightly, with many of Bijma’s startling and expressive vocalisations and Oceanic musical motifs subtly hinting at tidal flows, bird calls, and the comforting feeling of home that the environment stirs in both artists. It is not ‘landscape music’ in the strictest sense of the term, but rather music partially inspired by their personal psycho-geographies and nostalgic memories of their former coastal homes.

Sykheljende Lûden is frequently both majestic and mesmerising, with Bijma showcasing the full dynamism and expressiveness of her vocal range and Oceanic conjuring electronic sounds, rhythms and textures that combine his long-stated love of both club music and emotive experimentalism. From the bubbly bliss of opener ‘Away From Home’, to the ambient-operatic moodiness of closing cut ‘Peace In Mind’, via the soft-spun sweetness of ‘Golden Sun Skin’, spaced-out minimalism of ‘Dripket’ and the rhythmic creepiness of ‘Veugel’, Sykheljende Lûden is a unified artistic vision that owes as much to the duo’s coastal roots as it does to their evolving creative partnership.

Aurora – Hypnotic Deep Trance Journey

Aurora ist ein tiefgehendes, atmosphärisches Trance-Album, das die Zuhörer:innen auf eine hypnotische Reise durch pulsierende Basslines, fließende Arpeggios und sphärische Soundlandschaften mitnimmt. Jeder Track baut behutsam Spannung auf, verschmilzt treibende Rhythmen mit melancholisch-melodischen Synth-Layern und entfaltet eine tranceartige Wirkung, die sowohl für nächtliche Clubsets als auch für introspektives Hören geschaffen ist. Inspiriert von den Farben und Bewegungen des Nordlichts, reflektiert Aurora den Zauber eines kosmischen Tanzes – emotional, treibend und zeitlos.

ATO´s Into The Dark

Paul Hammock started making music inspired by techno, electro and the IDM of the nineties, with Plaid and the early work of Aphex Twin as his main references. In 2008 he published his first full EP through Alphabet Set, where he stayed, after publishing a full LP, until 2014, the year in which an organically developed journey through record labels like Seagrave, Lunar Disko, AC Records, Computer Controlled, Furthur Electronix, Analogical Force, Touched Electronix, Fundamental Records or Nebulae began. In the titles disseminated by these labels, Cignol has been offering a particular style in which the notorious classical rhythmic patterns –notably those of electro, but with sporadic appearances of others circumscribed to breakbeat or acid house– of equally classic drum machines are marked by a profuse use of the TB-303 and a wide range of melodic designs that, far from falling into the potential monotony of the loop, are subject to accumulation processes and formal reworking.

This podcast, the first in Dialektik's series, is defined by the exposition of what has been developed during most of his career. What can be expected? A live set consisting of a succession of pieces, either released or unreleased, which feature melodies that oscillate between different forms and moods –from melancholy to smugness, from the enigmatic to the urgent–, ubiquitous acid lines of a meticulous and sinuous sensuality, a backdrop of floating pads and mechanical basslines, all within an electro framework while still occasionally offering archetypal acid house pills. The convergence of all these elements forms a sonic identity which is stamped by a nostalgic look at the future, imagined by the musical past that defined Hammock's early days.

Dialektik Podcast #01 – Cignol

Lover of various types of electronic music, as well as many other genres. Here to help share great music from artists from around the world, and hopefully give them more exposure for their hard work in creating these melodic sounds, grooves, and moods.
~When we listen to music that moves us, the dopaminergic circuitry of the brain is activated, which opens the mind to wonder and exploration. In this bodily state of musical awe, we often tear up and get the chills, those embodied signs of merging with others to face mysteries and the unknown… Music breaks down the boundaries between self and other and can unite us in feelings of awe… When we listen to music with others, the great rhythms of our bodies — heartbeat, breathing, hormonal fluctuations, sexual cycles, bodily motion — once separate, merge into a synchronized pattern. We sense that we are part of something larger, a community, a pattern of energy, an idea of the times — or what we might call the sacred. ~ Dacher Keltner
