this is really nice! Love the instrumentation, really warm

beatiful tune, the world needs more stuff with proper housey vibes like this

ep is out 

This is the title track from the ep

Roel Funcken - the Candarian Ruins ep 

Its a Collection of 7 tracks all made in the last couple of months. They were all attached to different projects but didn’t make the final cut but somehow really have a nice fit together and gives the listener a glimpse of the different projects i was working on. The title comes from the classic cult movie Evil Dead which i recently re-watched, i just really like the sound of those words. 

1	Jimbacrinus Crinoid

An ambient track made in the period of the promethean plunder area,  The base of it is generated in ableton with a bunch of generative plugins. 

2	Dalanx Phemonto

This is the second last track i made, very idm ish funck style going on, with 87 bpm 7/4 measure. Hint, this is the opening track of the recent mix i did for Analogical Force. 

3	Coprinellus Disseminatus

This one is a bit older, most of the melodies are generated with the newfangled audio plugin called generate which uses Chaotic synthesis, with give the chords a very distinctive character. 

4	Gorreliann plasebant 2

Also is made around the Promethean Plunder area, i really aimed to do a bit of a Tim Hecker, Autechre type ambient track. Think especially there is a bit of a Hecker vibe going on because of a particular sound that i synthesised. Part 1 is the short version in available trough my Funckd subscription. 

5	Goff Mideon

I sampled a Harp from somewhere, pitched it down a whole lot, cutted it into a million pieces and rearranged it, added beat and bass and voila. 

6	The Candarian Ruins

The Title track is also in the Analogical Force mix. Its a pretty uplifting dance track, lots of arpeggios, kick, snare idm beat in the background and Bass. 

7	Clash Ollson

Completely Generative, with a free bundle that comes with Ableton 11. Its a real fun way to generate ideas quickly. 


EP will be released first of may 2021 for now just on bandcamp.

We have been working on this project with Mira for a while. Following Mira’s Curated Playlist contribution we discussed different ways in which music can enrich “the meme experience.” She kindly created this sound piece that is meant to be listened to while looking at memes on your phone.

Mira:
Classical music lovers will acknowledge that all releases of a piece of music vary and are open to interpretation. Pop music lovers are used to cover versions… Monteverdi has done something unusual for the baroque song I rearranged for this project. Commenting on the soprano part in the introduction to the Lamento, he left a note saying the singer should sing “according to her emotions” while the other singers and musicians are to follow the directions of the written score. He inbuilt variation and virality into the piece.
If you open Youtube and search for “Lamento della Ninfa” you will come across thousands of videos by amateurs and professionals alike. Thousands of variations and mutations sing out, some slow, some fast, some delicate, some wild. Despite the age of the piece, it’s still very much alive and viral… with a continuous stream of new releases and uploads… they keep mutating and imitating. And so it is from this particular ancient element of culture, passed by non-generic means that I have shaped a sound collage… cutting and pasting, and fusing, and moving through all these hundreds of variations to create perhaps the most dramatic soundtrack for your meme scrolling…

Taken from the Torn debut LP for Samurai Music - Borderline [SMDELP08]

Pre-order from https://samuraimusic.bandcamp.com/ and https://voidvinyl.eu/ and get 'The Fear' instantly with purchase.

Moscow based Ivan Karasev aka Torn inked his Samurai affiliation in 2017 with his first-ever solo vinyl release on Shiro, a sub-label for highlighting new artists. 

In the 5 years that have passed since this release, the Torn name has progressed into a widescreen sonic project leaving an indelible mark not only on DnB but also reaching into the outer edges of the underground Techno scene. 

As well as his monster debut EP (Internal - SMDE10) on the main Samurai label in 2018, Torn became one of the few artists to garner a release on Homemade Weapons' imprint Weaponry in 2019, a year which also saw him release an EP of Grey Area style Techno on Horo and a collab EP in the same style with Sam KDC and Korse as Vermisst, also on Horo. 

Since these releases, Torn has teamed up with fellow Russian artist Roho for an EP of percussive floor shakers in 2021 on Samurai Music (Fatum - SMDE19) and several self-released projects direct to his growing base of devoted Torn heads. In the background, the last few years Ivan has been diligently refining and experimenting with constructions for his debut LP for the Samurai Music label.

Borderline fulfils the promise of Ivans musical ascendancy in our sub-scene netherworld between DnB and Techno. Gut-punch kicks entwine with dense atmospheric layers, gnawing mid-riffs, and impeccably honed percussive propulsion. The cake is iced meticulously with guest collabs from Samurai Music top tier affiliates Homemade Weapons, Last Life, label head Presha and a tempo switch up to close the LP with the help of dungeon master Sam KDC and close cohort Korse.

Borderline plants a confident, empowered, flag on the electronic music landscape with Torn's name on it.
