Upcoming album with Dust Mechanics to be releases 22.02.22. 

We finally reached this stage and are beyond happy to present this amazing, raw, dusty and stunning music by him.

This is a taste of whats to come, a full drone journey and is also a part of the album that will be releases digitally and limited edition on wood USB sticks.

“Dust Mechanics premiere release for Nordanvind. 
Modular systems, circular patterns and sharp rhythms form a raw and brilliant album consisting a 12 tracks long ambiguous, hypnotic and satisfying journey ending in a live recorded drone session being track 13.

Like a moving sphere oscillating in a given space, the tracks are putting the listener inside different types of loops altogether creating a logical meaningful unity.”

Rinne & Majamäki - Reflection 
On The Border [SD10 / Signature Dark]

Written by Tapani Rinne & Teho Majamäki
Recorded by Markus Pulkkinen at Monttu Studio
Mixed and Arranged by Aleksi Myllykoski 
Mastered by Pauli Saastamoinen
Cover Art by Jukka Koops ja Tomas De Rita
Designed by Juuso Koponnen
Released by Signature Dark from Helsinki, Finland
Release Date : May 20th. 2022

On The Border, from artists Tapani Rinne and Teho Majamäki, is the tenth album to be released on Signature Dark label.

Since the beginning, space and the sound of it has been one of the cornerstones of Tapani Rinne and Teho Majamäki's music. The two previous albums contain meditative music recorded in acoustically interesting and atmospheric locations - temples and caves in India, as well as deep underground in the railway tunnels of Helsinki's metropolitan area.

With the new album, the musicians wanted to keep outside factors to a minimum and record compositions in controlled studio conditions. In this way, different spaces can be created electronically afterwards into the works. Aleksi Myllykoski and Mika Kalmi are responsible for mixing and post-production. The tracks are based on Teho's metal percussion instruments and Tapani's woodwinds.

In the finished pieces, the duo went towards free musical dialogue, in which the boundaries between improvisation and composed music become blurred and insignificant. Instead of listening to the sound of the space itself, musicians tuned in to listen to the vibration of the metal and wooden instruments. ”We focused on sensing the mutual resonance of the instruments and the sensitivity of the improvisation. A presence on the border of familiar and unknown.” Says Tapani and Teho.

The recordings took place in Kitee, Eastern Finland, near the Russian border. The location and way of working gave birth to the name of the record - On The Border. Signature Dark record label was founded in May 2020 in Helsinki. The core of the label is to release dark, melancholic, minimalist and cinematic music. Genres such as ambient, drone and doom jazz are in the spotlight, but there’s always room for other material as well as long as it fits the big picture with everything starting from the experimental ground.

MUTO - Wintre 
Vast Plains [VZ001 / VIEWZIC]

Format - Vinyl and Digital

무토(MUTO)는 ‘광활한 대지'를 상징하며: 그래픽 아티스트 박훈규, 거문고 연주자인 박우재, 이디오테잎의 프로듀서인 신범호 그리고 미디어 아티스트 홍찬혁이 함께하는 밴드이다.

무토는 현대 공연 예술의 중요한 요소인 ‘독창성’과 ‘동시대성’에 대한 고민에서 시작되었다.

융합된 동서양의 소리들을 기틀로하여, 미디어아트와 조명 예술로 표현 양식을 넓힘으로써 한국의 전통음악을 바탕으로 한 새로운 형태의 공연 예술을 만들고자 한다.

MUTO symbolizes ‘VAST PLAINS’; a band consisting of graphic artist Park Hunkyu (VIEWZIC), Geomungo player Park Woojae, music producer Sin Bumho (IDIOTAPE) and media artist Hong Chanhyuk.

MUTO emerges from musing over two fundamental elements in modern performing arts; originality and contemporaneity.

By integrating sounds of east & west, and amplifying artistic interpretation through manipulating media art and light art forms, MUTO aims to materialize an entirely new territory of performing arts on the basis of Korean traditional music.
