Canooooopy & Sima kim - Tragicomical Sandstorm

Now here’s an interesting one. I discovered Sima Kim via a random Soundcloud link on Twitter for a collaboration with Ryuei Kotoge, who I knew from his affiliation with the Day Tripper Records collective in Osaka. As it turns out Kim is a South-Korean musician with a classical training who taught himself tape music. Influenced by musique concrete, avant-garde and minimal composers, Kim has spent the past few years releasing modern classical, ambient and drone works. 

On Ur Silhouette he takes a full 180° turn with a six-track of modern electronic music and hip hop. These are the kind of clean, bright and rolling “laptop” beats you’d expect to find from a 16-year-old kid on Soundcloud – albeit with a quality and sheen that’s rare to find amongst producers of his age. The EP features three vocal collaborations, with New York’s Jaasaam, Mexican rapper Josue Josue and lastly Gregory Hoepffner, that range from melancholic electronic ballads to dreamy raps. 

Unusual in its genesis, Ur Silhouette is a rewarding listen and an interesting insight into what happens when musical world collides today – the sort of collision we’re only likely to hear more of as art and culture continues its hasty spread via the internet and recording technology.

Isolated (ft. ALMEEVA)

Two of the most promising young producers in their respective countries today—Korean artist Sima Kim and Japan's Ryuei Kotoge—teamed up earlier this summer to work on the shifty "Rêveur". On their own, both create shadowy electronic tracks that balance a sense of unease without sacrificing melody. "Rêveur" moves at a relaxed pace, and the producers sprinkle some Brainfeeder-worthy laser sounds over the groove. They also throw in some twists—channel-hopping sounds, intimidating bass squall, and vocal samples yelping away. It's an intriguing work from two of Asia's best young beatmakers. by Patrick St. Michel - pitchfork

Sima Kim's new album terraforms music with sound
---
Sima Kim has released music on labels such as BLWBCK and Umor Rex, each time showing a different side of himself. This led to 2020's Plugged Eyes and his artwork, in which he began terraforming the vast spectrum of sound and the infinite world of data into its own ecosystem. The same goes for Lu100, which he created with Dutch musician Glass Eyes. we hope you'll find a pleasurable strangeness in the world of sound created with a variety of sound materials.

IF YOU FEEL LIKE ME

"Dance music, aided by electronic medium and digital technology, has been evolving at an impressive rate enough to cultivate cultures through its. My aim was to accelerate this progression to drag dance music into a critical discussion. In other words, to deprive the privilege of what is envisioned as legit music, into an imaginary hierarchy based on various musical myths, and so that to democratize music."
