from 'Saravá Exu Remixes' [LP|DIGITAL]
Denovali Records · den236
available on all formats at [http://denovali.com/rd]

In January 2015 we brought you ‘Sarava Exu’ - Ricardo Donoso’s most demanding album filled with arcane musings and rich cinematic majesty highly lauded by international press for its high degree of sophistication. Now, a year later we present ‘Sarava Exu Remixes’ – a collection of reinterpretations’ by some of the most talented musicians working in contemporary electronic music today.
Industrial techno luminaries Orphx take the reins on leading single “Vesperum” and turn its bombastic ‘Zimmeresque’ landscape into a pummeling piece of broken techno in a way only Christina & Rich know how, despite the current swarm of dilettante’s trying to emulate their sound.
John Flynn’s Spaces, responsible for production duties on Björk’s Vulnicura album closer ‘Quicksand’ mangles and lacerates album central point ‘Gallicinium’ to near indistinguishable form with huge nods to early era Warp. Archie Pelago breaks down ‘Matutinum’s dark core and provide a beautiful arrangement for strings & horns including some dramatic accompaniment for the tracks main 11/8 ostinato. Dark ambient pioneer, and label mate, Thomas Köner ends the proceedings with a mind-blowing interpretation of ‘Diluculum’; ‘Sarava Exu’s complex and multi-dimensional closing number into a sophisticated piece of sub glacial tones & atmosphere, focusing instead on the inner side and calm characteristics of a fairly violent tune, recalling his early work for Barooni in the early nineties. A new window into the universe of ‘Sarava Exu’ by some of the most compelling electronic musicians working today.

Listeners familiar with Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith's previous album Euclid (an album that prompted Dazed to call her "…one of the most pioneering musicians in the world.") will no doubt notice her heavier use of vocals on her new album EARS.  On all but one song, her gently ecstatic swells of vocals emerge to soar over a dense jungle of synths and woodwinds.

After initially composing on a Buchla analog synth, she wrote arrangements for a woodwind quintet, added vocals, and further refined the pieces with granular synthesis techniques she developed in her sound design work (she contributed sound design to Panda Bear's "Boys Latin" video, and handled sound design and original compositions for Brasilia co-written by and starring Reggie Watts).   

Kinetic arpeggios of synths pulse, often buoying her graceful vocal mantras, while woodwinds breathe and flutter, emulating the wildlife Smith observed while growing up on the West Coast (she even studied recordings of slowed down bird calls prior to composing these pieces).   Though some of her gestures echo the musical tropes used by early minimalist composers, the world she creates on EARS is uniquely hypnotic and full of life, not unlike Miyzaki's film Nausicaä, which she cites as an inspiration.

Twenty-six – Ales Tsurko

Just forget it, I can make it mind over matter 
I can make you feel something better 
I don’t want to be apart 

And I said it, everything in life has an ending 
think of all the days we were spending 
hoping for a way to start 

I came to leave it right 
I hope to stay the night 
you back away but its already love 

I know you think that I’m crazy 
'cause I can’t stop calling you baby 
and I know that you’ll never break me 
'cause it’s already love, 'cause it’s already love 

I’m a soldier, fight it but I know that I need it 
try to look away but I see it 
yea, your body feels like home

is it over? We don’t have to wait on forever
We could go the wrong way together 
I just want to let you know 

I came to leave it right 
I hope to stay the night 
you back away but its already love 

I know you think that I’m crazy 
'cause I can’t stop calling you baby 
and I know that you’ll never break me 
'cause it’s already love, 'cause it’s already love 

You know that look that you gave me 
yea it knocked me out but it saved me 
and I don’t quite know what Im saying 
'cause it’s already love, 'cause it’s already love

Feel it calling you back 
hoping for a little 
waiting for somebody to come 
and show you what to look for 
nothing can mistake my love 
everything you are is everything I wanted  
now i want to tell you, now I want to tell you

I know you think that I’m crazy 
'cause I can’t stop calling you baby 
and I know that you’ll never break me 
'cause it’s already love, 'cause it’s already love 

You know that look that you gave me 
yea it knocked me out but it saved me 
and I don’t quite know what Im saying 
'cause it’s already love, 'cause it’s already love

Already Love

Evening Side (Oneohtrix Point Never edit)

A Different Kind of Busy

Produced by Wayne Connelly and mixed by Liam Judson. 

Allan’s self described nostalgia-Australiana rock is like that old fibro house on your street; slightly dated, strangely nostalgic and quintessentially Australian.

Inspiration comes in many forms. For some they find it in an object, for others it comes from a moment in time, but for Sydney’s Allan Smithy it’s all about the place. Hailing from the inner city, Allan Smithy sings about what he knows; the streets, the suburbs, and what it is like being young, poor, and trying to live in Sydney.

Drawing heavily from the 80’s Australian hay day, Allan Smithy’s ‘Four Letter Reason’ is a wash of chorus and delay. Bathing in a sea of nostalgia, the track is like going through a stack of old polaroids, a reminder of growing up in suburban Sydney, and tells the story of what it’s like to watch everyone around you grow up, search for something more and leave. 

‘Four Letter Reason’ is taken from Allan Smithy’s upcoming EP ‘I See A Palm Tree’, that’s slated for release in the upcoming months.
