Rinnovare feat. Benoît Pioulard - To Be in the Grey is Okay
Taken from VA/Meditations 6
Limited Edition CD available here:
shimmeringmoodsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/m…tions-6

Mastered by Andrea Porcu
Release date: 12.3.2021

 
Rinnovare is the project of BC artist Matteo Neufeld. Despite the challenges that came with 2020, he graced the year with many releases. Accompanied on strings by partner Chloe Davidson, and production engineering form Andrew Judah. The first being his modern-classical / dream pop EP titled Aperturia. The next was a double single release with label Ambientologist, from the Netherlands. Followed after that was Rinnovare's re - release of his long sought-after record Suspended Animation. This being an album that was traced around many countries, over the span of six years. It evolved into being a dense, rhythmic & reflective collection of modern-classical, post-rock and ambient hybrid. During the summer of 2020, Rinnovare began to write & record Held Under All, the upcoming record being released on Shimmering Moods Records, from Amsterdam. This is Rinnovare's most nuanced, minimalist, calming & seductive album to date. Featuring acclaimed artist collaborations such as Benoît Pioulard, Voga & Bedroom, a cohesive & sprawling display of wash, texture & beauty has been manifested here. Mixed by Slow Meadow, and mastered by Rafael Anton Irisarri, Rinnovare has continuously pursued crystal clear production aesthetic, contrasted with raw & organic atmosphere all over.

Kagami Smile - Reflection of Light 
Taken from VA/Meditations 7
Limited Edition CD available here:

https://shimmeringmoodsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/meditations-7

Mastered by Andrea Porcu
Release date: 12.3.2021

Kagami Smile is from an industrial city a few hours from Chicago and spends some of his time in the futuristic sprawl of Shenzhen, China. He takes influence from shoegaze records as well as minimal techno labels such as Chain Reaction and Modern Love. His most recent output of music focuses on minimal meditative synthwork reminiscent of early Aphex Twin and strong nods to Japanese video game soundtracks as well as the concept of liminal spaces. His music reflects a series of recurring dreams had since 2017, that of a missed moment with a stranger. His compositions are usually filled with nostalgia and romance as well as a haze of urban solitude. He has released on labels such as Dream Catalogue, Tekres, SOVN, Gin&Platonic, as well as an upcoming album on Opal Tapes and Sores (Sound+Matter) from Sweden. He will also release an album on Shimmering Moods this year.

The Meditations various artists compilation continues its exploration into sounds with exclusive tracks for this compilation series.

Felicity Mangan's words:
"Wetlands such as small ponds, marshlands, swamps and lakes provide habitats for many of the
world's existing, new and endangered aquatic and terrestrial species.
During the recent lockdown situation l have taken long bike rides inside of the Berlin borders
discovering many tracks along canals, rivers and wetlands inhibiting an amazing biodiversity of
lush flora and fauna during the spring season. I also recently discovered that the name Berlin
roots from previous West Slavic inhabitants berl-/birl- "swamp".
Inspired by these local biotopic explorations I have created a mix featuring my own music that is
influenced and populated by wetland species while including many other artists I have
discovered who have created music inspired by aquatic phenomena or the voices of species
that habitat these wet landscapes."

To know more about Felicity Mangan:
Felicity Mangan is an Australian sound artist and composer based in Berlin, Germany since 2008. In different situations such as solo performance, collaborative projects with other musicians or installation, Felicity plays her found native Australian wildlife archive and other field recordings, either through a stereophonic system or often via hand-made speakers made with piezo transducers and found objects – exploring the timbre and forms of found and self-recorded animal voices while mimicking biophonic patterns to create minimal quasi-bioacoustic environments. 

Felicity has recently played in collaborative projects Native Instrument (Shelter Press, Entr’acte) presenting electro-acoustic bug beats with vocalist Stine Janvin Joh and Plants and Animalia with Christina Ehrl Shirley – grafting live and pre-recorded drones produced by remnants of plant biochemistry together with modified animal voices. Felicity has also released a solo publication on Longform Editions titled Stereo’frog’ic, a play on the word stereophonic –  presenting a sound piece, crafted from found recordings of frogs, insects and other ‘vocal’ animals wavering about in a stereo field. Felicity has presented projects in many different settings from galleries, gardens, clubs and festivals throughout Europe. Including National Gallery Denmark, Technosphärenklänge CTM/HKW and Sonic Act Academy 2020.
