A NEW MYCOLOGY: LETHAL ALGAE BLOOMS (PASTORAL RETURN)

The Way For You Lumi

VB - 66

It’s safe to say that Steven Legget has been somewhat measured in his approach to releasing music. The Newcastle native was behind the Four Hands moniker, with releases alongside iconic industrial figures Zoviet France on Signals From The North and the classic ‘Hizou’ on Claremont 56 back at the turn of the decade.
 
Now, this Firecracker Recordings release highlights a fully realised body of work, only hinted at by the aforementioned projects. Starting life as a performance in Turkish Baths located in Newcastle upon Tyne’s City Pool, one of the last remaining civil saunas in the country, Legget has created a textured, melodic and immersive eulogy to the woozy, slow motion, drug free endorphin rush of the bath house. Pieces from this performance, alongside field recordings collected on the islands of Paxos and Loutro, South Crete are reimagined as a luscious ambient music. Accompanied by cello and electronics with real attention paid to musicality, vast and gaseous cinematic compositions are submerged beneath waves and drenched in steam and condensation.

All tracks produced by Steven Legget. Field recordings collected on the island of Paxos, and Loutro (Crete).
Tracks 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 co-written by Laura Reid.
Tracks 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 cello performed by Laura Reid.
Track 7 co-written/produced and performed with Suade Bergemann (Sine Bass) and Mark Hand (Fender Rhodes Stage 88 Piano and Jen SX1000 synthesiser).

LP Mastered by Suade and Cut by Keith.

‘For us there can be no talk of balance or great art. The idea of the beautiful has long gone to roost. Only the moral idea remains incontestable - for example the knowledge that one cannot be French ambassador and a poet at the same time.’ 
- Benjamin notes how on 1 July 1925 the surrealists had put on a leaflet called ‘Open letter to Mr Paul Claudel, ambassador to Japan’ -

Lifted from @barycenter's new tape, 'Betrayal', on @alwayshumantapes, we’re glad to share ‘Shell‘ – a Luciferian ripper that’ll leave pentagram-shaped prints on the dancefloor and beyond. Beware the number of the beast.

Track Premiere: 'Navarte' by @dilian, out on SØVN Records
Read more: https://www.paynomindtous.it/dilian-navarte-sovn/
***
 @s-vn is a collective of sound designers, musicians, and multimedia artists releasing limited-edition records coming with exclusive packaging. Displaced between several European cities over the years, the outcome collects works from artists from all over the world that are mainly focused on ambient, noise, drone, and digital sound exploration. House of 90 Portents is their upcoming outing, recorded by the Brooklyn-based award-winning children movie and documentary soundtrack composer, DJ, live performer, radio host, and producer Dilian.

Making music under his own name and also with the GAP moniker, he is mainly interested in dancefloor-oriented, experimental dance music that draws inspiration from a huge variety of influences, from sampling and cut-up techniques all the way to post-Internet, conceptual laptop electronics and Chicago's juke. His rather nervous yet organic mixture of sounds has been displayed on his London's Threads Radio and Montreal's n10.as radio residencies, as well as hectically brought on stages all over NYC and Europe, which he has been touring annually since '15.

Composed of six tracks (Lassoed, Navarte, Pin, Excuse, Esca, Red Program), House of 90 Portents will see the light of the day later this week in digital and limited cassette edition. The record employes a multitude of fast-paced rhythmic and sonic solutions that translate to tracks that are totally unpredictables, thoroughly entertaining, and sometimes even borderline dissonant. However, thanks to its unlimited library of samples brilliantly juxtaposed in multilayered pieces of agitated dancefloor music, Dilian's latest work is surely one of the few recent examples of the more the better.

Premiering today on our pages is the second track of the lotto, called Navarte.  Narrowly 3 minutes long, the suspenseful track features videogame-like synth stabs, rich rhythmic textures, and fragmented audio sources amongst which figures chopped vocals that are displaced all over the stereo spectrum. Navarte, as well as the entire House of 90 Portents, is the lively, exciting product of a child-like, playful approach to composition that is Dilian's peculiar m.o.. Have fun!

z0it - Instructions (The Lick)

Floating by a landscape of decay on the river of death
As the smog vanishes from the morning to the gateway of the sun
Past mothers whisper the spells of love and the curse of knowledge
An immortal creature lies upon the mountain of flowers and fruit
When the ancient manuscript echoes through the hall of the temple
We will all dream about the myth of our afterlife

After launching his new label katharsis with a 30 track compilation trilogy featuring a big range of artists from all across the globe, jjjacob caries on with his own music by releasing the 6-track EP Mythos under his alternative moniker Basura on the label. The EP will be released on September 12th with premieres coming out on AQNB, Soul Feeder and Ma3azef the previous weeks.

With katharsis, jjjacob has set out to explore how we as humans find emotional cleansing in music, which was showcased thoroughly on the compilation trilogy by thematizing the affective value of the basic elements: The Flow of Water, The Burn of Fire and The Breath of Air. The fourth element of earth seems to be missing, but this is exactly what Mythos tries to deal with by submerging in the ancient mythologies of humans on earth.

On Mythos, Basura sends us on a range of spiritual journeys through the archaic stories of past civilizations. With heavy use of granular synthesis, odd time signatures and clusters of obscure samples, the EP takes us through landscapes of death, scriptures of mysticism and sagas of our souls. The grandiose melodies of jjjacob are to be found on some of the tracks, but as Basura he covers them in strange textures and murky drums. Dive into Basuras musical tales of sorcerous seeresses, prehistoric rituals and underworldly atmospheres.
