By William Blake, ‘Spring‘.
Sound the flute!
Now it’s mute!
Bird’s delight,
Day and night,
Nightingale,
In the dale,
Lark in sky,—
Merrily,
Merrily merrily, to welcome in the year…

Hocast #109 - Faru

For fans of the music that we promote Roel Funcken probably needs little introduction. A legend in his own right with releases dating back more than 23 years on labels such as n5MD, Ad Noiseam, Schematic, Analogical Force and his own imprints. Roel was also the organiser of the Mindcamp events in The Netherlands that featured the best IDM artists and is one of our biggest heroes and a true inspiration. Did you know Roel also makes beautiful paintings? The artwork for this mix is one example, but we urge you to check out his other works. 

The mix is an amazing collection of his own music and other artists that we're fans of, so we are more than happy with this contribution. Enjoy!

INDEx Mix #39 - Roel Funcken

There's a lot of work behind the scenes in Headphone Commute headquarters. All the email reading, promo sorting, and, of course, the listening and writing take up lots of time to make sure that I can bring you honest music on a regular basis. Sometimes, my "job" is mitigated through the trusted filter of a record label. After all, they invest more than just time into their supported artists. There are many such examples where I can turn to a favourite imprint and pretty much enjoy every single release. For many years now, since 2006 to be exact, I have been following the output of an Italian label founded by Alessandro Tedeschi, which he called Glacial Movements. As the name implies, the music put out by the imprint specializes in glacial and isolationist ambient soundscapes, "places that man has forgotten... icy landscapes... fields of flowers covered eternally with ice..." It's a beautiful place, and I have been a fan of the albums, including that of Tedeschi's own Netherworld project. Today, we're stepping away from these frozen territories of the inevitable future and instead take a look back at the ancestry of the past. In particular, the new album by Massimo Pupillo turns our attention towards the Indigenous people of the Arctic, who have been inhabiting some of these hospitable lands since the dawn of human civilization. The track I am premiering for you today, "Horagalles", is titled after the thunder god, often depicted with a sledgehammer in one hand and a cross-hammer in the other on the Sami shaman drums. It's a beautiful and slightly eerie piece, full of enigmatic worship, belief in the unknown, and of course, the distant rolls of thunder.

@ynvynv

YNV is a Brussels born music lover, audiovisual artist, music curator (Vague Terrain) who now finds himself in sunny California.
In his music, as with his videos, he exploits the liminal space between our most disparate emotional states and the tenuous thread that binds our inner world to reality at its face value. Carrying the torch of his Euro roots, you hear the influence of his homeland with some California sunshine and a palm tree thrown in for good measure.

Wander – Wander through nature, the city, or airports, but wander with intent.

Collateral Benefit – The word that unfortunately usually follows Collateral is damage.

NPN Reel – “Negative Positive Negative” as in the transistor. It’s a transistor, not an outlook.

Fields of Peace – Open fields, birds, insects, this is a happy place to be. Hello, summer.

Eight Decades Later – I wish I could remember.

The Other Side of the Glass – Funny how perspectives can change by adding a pane of glass.

Monochrome Glow – Bask in the glow and anticipation as you listen to the hiss of your 14.4k baud rate modem. This is the future.

Slew Rate – Defined as The maximum rate at which an amplifier can respond to the sudden change of input level. Sometimes life works this way as well.

KapTep is the ambient\drone project from US-based producer Derek Carter (Sullivan, Illinois). Always fascinated with sound and sound design his love of synthesizers began at an early age. His compositions are a blend of synth layers, loops, effects, and field recordings with the intent on creating an ever-evolving soundscape. The concept behind KapTep is to try creating the style of emotional music that he wanted to listen to himself. Every composition should evoke an emotion to which you can write your own story. Rain, static hiss, pops, and crackles are often the foundation layered under melancholy dreamy compositions.
