Live Sets/Podcasts

BONUS! I had such a love affair with my 741 hz tuning fork that i created another track in its honor! This is a free gift to everyone for being so awesome and it is also my hope that this will raise more awareness about my debut album that you can listen for free or purchase here: http://earthcry.bandcamp.com/

741 - Attunement

Revy goes Off The Grid with a departure from his usual mixing approach, veering his glitch laden aesthetics into something more akin to an experimental mixtape rather than densely layered techno tracks. 

Beat matching goes to the wayside in this journey into the more esoteric zones of his hard drives, rich with clicks, bleeps, and haunting emotional melodies. And while the mix would certainly not exist without technology where it is today, it should also serve as a motivation to allow yourself to disconnect yourself from your various networks for some quality time to truly immerse yourself in sound and introspect.

Bio:

Revy’s sonic focus is driven by hypnotic polyrhythm, unconventional sound palettes, and a relentless pulse. Spontaneity, instinct, and impulsive live experimentalism are key elements realized to formulate his compositions and dj sets, which are often described as unique, weird, alien, and intensely psychedelic. He is also known for founding the netlabel Bleepsequence, which is becoming notorious for its growing library of quality experimental techno at no cost, along with releasing on numerous labels such as Make Mistakes, Kalimari Musique, and several others, including an appearance on a compilation on From 0-1. Currently he is based out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and working on new music projects including an independent video game soundtrack, and youtube videos for audio geeks.

5 Questions Interview:

1) You're in Pittsburgh these days. Formerly, you were in Portland, Oregon; What was the impetus to relocate to the Steel City?

My wife and I actually didn't have jobs or know anybody in town before moving to Pittsburgh. We were living in Tokyo for a little while after getting married, and decided to make a return to the States somewhere where there were decent job prospects and an affordable cost of living. I wasn't sure what to expect but it's become a really comfortable spot for us. I do miss the funky weirdness of Portland along with many of my great friends there, but I can't say I miss struggling to pay rent.

2) Pittsburgh isn't necessarily on the international radar when it comes to Techno but from our perspective there seems to be a good bit of activity there music-wise. Care to shed some light on the subject for us?

I've been here a little over 4 years now, and it seems to be developing pretty well lately. There are some passionate people here working very hard at putting out some great records and throwing events, not to mention some open minded and responsive crowds ready to get down in whatever dive bar or bath house is hosting some proper techno. It's taken a while to build up to this point but there is worthwhile stuff going on every weekend now, and the local event crews are all working in tandem to make things go off.

3) You run Bleepsequence, a netlabel. You've been at that for awhile now, for how long, and what made you interested in going for the Creative Commons approach?

We've been at it since the start of 2010, it's gone by so fast. I had been collecting so much netlabel music for years up to that point and had connected with a lot of great artists. It just felt like it was the right time to form a collective and start giving back. It's liberating to not have to worry about the financial aspects of running a traditional label, besides the fact that I don't want to have the need to sell units be an indirect influence on the sound. We are all about pure expression, risky experimentalism, and concept exploration.

4) For people who aren't familiar with your sound- how would you describe it, and what outlets can we find your original productions?

I have a wide range of influences and prefer to use unconventional sound palettes and design methods. I always have a hard time nailing down a genre for my music because there's always little pieces of stuff floating around in my pool of sound, deep spacey bleeps, glitchy clicks, pulsing bass, rhythmic drones, or weird dubbed out field recordings. My recording process is often driven by impulsive instinct and spontaneity, as I find that the unexpected things that happen in the studio are usually the most interesting.

I have releases available all over the place. You can find some of it on beatport and bandcamp, or I've also contributed a lot of work to netlabels that you can download for free. And of course, I often release and remix on Bleepsequence. For the most recent EPs, check labels like Make Mistakes, Kalimari Musique, and Abstrakt Records. And let's not forget an appearance on a compilation by From 0-1 back in the day!

5) Any interesting bits on the horizon we should be on the lookout for?

I have an EP of some eclectic stuff coming soon on the netlabel Wondermachine Musique, and another weird techno EP for Make Mistakes. I'm also very excited to be working on some music and sound design for a beautiful and intense arcade shooter called ZeroDay, an independent project that has been in the works for years. It's coming together really well and I can't wait to see what develops with that. I'm also preparing to launch a new channel on youtube that will host a variety of music and technology videos, including stuff like iPad app reviews, hardware demos, random live jams, and whatever else pops into my head. Bleepsequence is showing no signs of slowing down either with several releases in the pipeline, so it's looking like a busy summer ahead!
