Match Me

With their second widely analogue based effort the former two-piece audiovisual project Sky To Speak delve deep into their meditative momentum leaving behind three perfectly layered compositions. Using dub dynamics, the spaciness of psychedelic ambient and onward through techno rituals 'Ruin' EP, their Exitab debut, offers something which could have only be conceived with full focus, yet in parts depths of the subconscious have shaped the final outcome.

Although three of six tracks are remixes using the 'r' word could be a bit tricky here. From a bearable lightness of the hypnotic Tachycardia Theatre's recontextualisation, through to Casi Cada Minuto's trademark zero gravity sound trip, this carefully curated collection feels more like coherent album than remix release. Adding Troniq's hazy mindwarp with clock-like percussions ticking under intense melodic backdrop the EP ends precisely where the first track begins. It offers itself to be looped forever or at least until the tape disintegrates.

SKY TO SPEAK - Ruin - EXTB050 - 03 Pilot

These three recordings result from a one-week plan I made on the first day of 2015. It wasn't too long since I had moved to a new place in Petržalka, a legendary flat shared with fellow musicians. I was kind of tired of making music with virtual synths so I got some microphones and decided to record every day anything that felt nice on instruments and objects lying around. Those included a clarinet, melodica, guitar, or a radiator. Some effects you hear in the recording were part of the recording process, some were added later.

The goal was just to play music and have fun as a form of therapy to overcome a creative block. From the improvisations quickly emerged three tracks, each with its own vibe and attitude. Later that year those recordings were forgotten unintentionally as they somehow didn't fit the plans of the Sky To Speak band playing and recording new music with Erik and Pospa, and releasing the split with Pacino.

In 2022 while finalizing a record that includes recordings for various projects and some unreleased tracks I accidentally found a folder with these three recordings I called Amparo back then. I thought it's a shame I didn't put them out there so I am doing it now, almost exactly 8 years later.
