orti // Live Set @ 3dostres in Monterrey, Mexico

The second instalment of sonic explorations. Fusing the line between past and present styles. Ice cold arpeggios, muddy bass lines, and stripped back vocals. 

All tracks recorded live to a Yamaha MT4X cassette mixer using a Korg KR-55b, ARP 2600, Roland SH-101, and Korg MS-20.

for days gone by #40 on @radioalhara - Safarbarlek by the Rahbani Brothers SIDE 1 and 2 and Sabah live performances Side Two were played - 

more info about Safarbarlek below:

"Safarbarlek, which in translation means Exile, is the second Lebanese film to star the famous recording artiste Fairuz. 
The story of the film as well as the music was written by the Rahbani Brothers and the film was made by an Egyptian director, Barakat.

The background of the film concerns the period, prior to World War One, when most of the Arab World was under the domination of the Ottoman Empire, the story being set in particular in Lebanon.
These were very difficult days for the local population who had to endure injustice and cruelty, their crops were confiscated to feed the army and young men were recruited by force into the invaders army. If they tried to avoid this and were caught they were sent into exile, hence the title of the film-Safarbarlek.

The fight against oppression is fully illustrated in the film and told in the songs and music which are reproduced on this record from the original sound track."

Here comes our opening set of Seebühne at Fusion Festival 2024 on Wednesday evening. For us it was a very big honor to play this slot and this pleasure caused some pressure which made us spending quite some time on selecting records and rehearsing. In the end these two hours of truly danceable eclecticism were gone within the blink of an eye and we're still hyped by the memories of all the gorgeous dancers and the love we received. 

Thanks so much for having us!

love is on my side #29 | 28.08.2024

For long I have been wanting to ‘visualise’ sound waves by devising a method of 3 dimensional steam projection, to visualise in three dimensions the actual sound waves as they interfere and bounce around a room.  Mutation 2, is a tactile alternative: when played at loud enough level, one can move through the room and experience the vibrations of the standing waves and nodes with one’s head and body.  

They key material in Mutation 2 is again micro intervals from my own scales, to create beatings.  The difference here lies in the execution: it is realised by a Nord Modular 2x synthesizer and therefore the microtonal pitch values have a certain precision that human players cannot achieve.  The synthetic sounds are presented at a relatively loud level, so that the glossy sound completely penetrates the space and body.  

When played at a decent level through loudspeakers (this effect obviously won't work through headphones), the undeniable physicality of the sounds are tangible.  They contain so much energy and the listener can move through the room and literally explore the waves. From turning the head to the sides, left right the sound changes dramatically.  Moving slightly forward or backwards, one can step into a ‘hotspot’ of pulsing beats.  One more step and the effect is completely gone, one only hears the two tones.  

At some points during the progression of the piece, I can feel my inner ear react to the sound.  I feel a vibration in the eardrum area, a kind of sympathic resonance. Something prior to otoacoustic emissions. At a louder volume full otoacoustic emission happens on some of the microtonal clusters. 

The oscillating pulsing sounds can be compared to visual flickering or strobe lights at different tempos.  It has a disorienting, hallucinatory effect (when played at loud enough level), at once putting the listeners in a kind of isolation that may feel subliminal.  This also has a powerful effect of being in the absolute ‘now’ or present – there is no tempo insinuated, only the constant bombardment of flickering rhythms.  When played at softer levels, it still has some of the effect and an austere presence that I would compare to a David Lynch slow camera movement through a dark corridor with red curtains at the end.  I say this because it feels to me as if the music completely lacks emotional content and it makes it slightly eerie. The response I feel is as if I experience my body without the soul in it, as if in a dream.
