The fifth transmission on BRUK comes from Chewlie, a breakthrough artist from Switzerland adept at sculpting tense, sharply defined atmospheres with eerie amounts of space and dreadful amounts of bass. Following up on her 2022 Creature LP for YUKU, this eight-track deep dive explores nervous hallways of dislocated rhythm with a UK soundsystem attitude and a subtle but striking approach to sound design.
 
In contrast with the strident melodic tones of Creature, Chewlie demonstrates her versatility as a sonic artist (alongside her established work as a graphic designer). Understated moodiness is the key here, resulting in powerful heads-down immersion heaters with stand-out moments to make the floor fall in line amidst meditative, patient pauses in between. In the field of leftfield dubwise club music, Chewlie’s voice strikes out with purpose and poise, slotting into the firmament of BRUK as another natural misfit in the many-sided bassweight landscape.

We’re back on noods radio for the 9th episode of Crying is softer than you think.

Bleu, our little cat adopted in October, has really grown up. He's getting cuddlier by the day and loves walks in the forest. 

We offer you an hour of music as gliding as it is intoxicating. Navigating between drone and fields recordings, in a slow psychedelic atmosphere sprinkled with a disjointed rhythm that makes us lose all notion of time.

Just like the the end-of-year period. 

We hope you enjoy this mix, which will be the last of the year.

LOUFR is a solo project by the Polish composer Piotr Bednarczyk. His work focuses on intermedial chamber and electronic music. In his sonic endeavors, he explores the spaces of sound design, seeking sounds and structures characterized by a subjective, strong physical, and emotional impact. The non-musical content woven into his compositions revolves around global changes inevitably leading to the collapse of the world.


FEARS is the third album by Piotr Bednarczyk under the pseudonym LOUFR. The compositions of the Polish artist have resonated in numerous concert halls across Europe, and this time his work finds its home in Pointless Geometry, a label showcasing the most intriguing domestic electronic music.

LOUFR occupies an exceptionally stable position between contemporary music, hyperpop, and deconstructed club sounds. FEARS is a melancholic album, distinctly human despite the high degree of vocal processing and electronic instrumentation. This contrast is palpable from the very beginning, as emotional vocals collide with an almost trap-like beat. The album is not devoid of moments of true beauty, as evident in "269," a track built around a catchy, sung phrase. The title of this composition serves as a kind of manifesto, referencing the number of a calf rescued from a dairy farm by activists.

FEARS explores the extremes of sonic spectrums, juxtaposing delicate piano strikes with industrial noise and string instruments with a creaking synthesizer. Whether shrouded in electronics or warmed by organic instrumentation, all layers resonate with each other in an incredible, engaging harmony.

FEARS is a unique auditory experience—sharp, unconventional, and avant-garde in some places, while warm, inviting, and familiar in others. Bednarczyk's voice carries this paradox, emotional yet bathed in mechanical processing. The music of the Polish artist resonates with the disintegration of the world but does not relinquish hope. If it is to assist us in anything, it is in navigating through difficult emotions. And FEARS accomplishes this with finesse.

Meta is a syllabic abbreviation of two words: "Metallophone" and "Tape."
Metallophone and tape music by Nikolaienko.

"It’s an album where I’ve limited myself to using only two instruments – a metallophone and a four-track tape recorder. Explorations of the metallophone and tape sounds, deconstructed and reintegrated into tracks with cassette loops. This release is part of this year’s series, dedicated not to electronic but to electro-acoustic music with a focus on analog recording and production"

Sacralia

BETWEEN ME AND THEE PLEASURE AND PROFANE

Dawno Temu - BETWEEN ME AND THEE PLEASURE AND PROFANE (Pointless Geometry)

https://pointless-geometry.bandcamp.com/album/dawno-temu-sacralia

Dawno Temu - Solo project of Agnieszka Bykowska, Polish sound artist and producer. While balancing between ambient, drone and minimalist music, she creates unique sonic sceneries centered around layered synth waves with elements of electroacoustic. Having spent nine years in Bydgoszcz, PL she has crossed paths with the improv scene. Played numerous shows across Poland, including appearances at festivals. Her main sources of inspiration are the notion of time, spirituality and emotional corners of human nature.

SACRALIA is the second LP from Polish sound artist and producer Dawno Temu.

Living within the realms of fast-paced reality we're bypassing the essence of "being fully in the moment". While so much dependent on the notion of time itself, we're sharing a collective fantasy of making the time dependent on us - to pause it, outstretch it, turn it back in order to experience something once again. Dawno Temu approaches that concept with both severity and sensitivity in her compositional process.

Each of six tracks on the album is like a ceremonial object for the performative aspect of careful observation that finds its fulfillment in rapture and emotionality. These objects in their historical meaning have been utilized as a means for establishing or maintaining communication between the sacred (the transcendent, or supernatural) and the profane (the secular, cause and effect). Rather than trying to fit a doctrine Dawno Temu celebrates subjective experience of the individual, points in time and space that are carrying an idiosyncratic, empirical gesture with them: light reflections, moments of pause, sources of pleasure - which are actually common experiences, bound with human nature - and sonically reinterprets them as manifestations of “the sacred” among “the profane”.

The sound of SACRALIA is raw and ascetic; euphoric, but full of reverie. Balancing between wide and dense, Dawno Temu carves her own path in drone and minimalist music. Meditative repetitiveness of structures, slowly evolving and dissolving form the frame of SACRALIA which leaves a room for serenity and reflection in both: herself and the listener. Improv strings ensemble, featuring guest appearance of Antonina Car and Joanna Szczęsnowicz (jablkagruszki) in EVERY PAUSE STRIVES FOR ADMIRANCE, together with synthesizer mimic chanting of a litany where all instruments gently pass each other by and only occasionally synchronize to speak with one voice. In her work process on SACRALIA, Dawno Temu focused on conjuring up certain feelings during long and immersive recording sessions with two synthesizers. This way, slowly forming unique shapes and imagery, she developed a somewhat emotional bond with the instruments, reminding of Éliane Radigue and her composing approach.

Composed and recorded by Dawno Temu (Agnieszka Bykowska) between 2022/2023 in Wrocław and Poznań
