noxpox - Patt ☻ (OPEN COLLAB)

some amazing motorcycle experiences...it's really crazy sometimes... ;-)

Floating Free

Djayz ( dont on peut entendre la superbe musique sur Soundcloud) a rappelé à mon souvenir le célèbre "Duo des fleurs" de l'opéra Lakmé de Léo Delibes; Alors j'ai gardé en tête les premières notes du duo et, de là, j'ai composé une petite rêverie qui n'a rien à voir avec lui, avec différents claviers, une guitare douze cordes et quelques autres ingrédients...

Delibes

Traditional American folk song, vocal performance by the enthralling @feli-18

Where Did You Sleep Last Night? (Featuring Feli!)

MMXXIIIVIIVIIISS

method: part 1: voice, electric kalimba, fretless bass, tons of shoegaze; part 2: voice, electric kalimba, megatons of shoegaze - - - I created part 1 first but felt like adding some kind of atonal chant which I then did - - - despite track duration ...
narration: there is the norse myth of Odin receiving the futhark .... and there is the common experience of getting unstuck from the usual interpretation of the world and the self as well as a recombination of the abstract and the real, randomly called reading/reaping ... the title is a newly-coined ancient word ;-)

poem /copyright jo richter:

fersaufwärts lesen
gabeln, sproßblätter
sein, was ich nicht bin
nervenstrang, letter

baum, dreiquell, atem
zweiggang durch spalten
es ist, was es nicht ist
querfurchen, falten

schmerzlicht und denkstrahl
deutungsgewebe
nachtfrost und tagqual
welt ist, was ich erlebe:
kreuzkraft und sinnsprung
gelenk in bewegung

interlinear translation: reading from the heel up / forks, leaf buds / to be what I am not / nerve fibre, letter // tree, triple well, breath / twigs forming spaces / it is what it isn't / cross-furrows, folds // light of pain and rays of thought / texture of interpretaton / night's frost and day's torture / world is what I experience / crossing force and leap of meaning / moving joint

Departing from the sample-based sound of his previous releases, the sonic palette of Hybrid instead draws heavily on the synthetic sounds of MIDI instruments, synth presets, and VSTs.

Hunger Cult

I used a piece by John Dowland "Lachrimae Antiquae" filtered with a low pass, then I took my track "caos11" and some of the material I had used to prepare it to create a mix between the two pieces.

Lachrimae Antiquae (caos11 remix) - disquiet0634

cannibal thoughts,
eat their way out of my head,
don't I know I'm worthless?
don't I wish I was dead?
but I pick up the guitar,
and write it in the red,
of the pain I can't escape,
but I can form it into shape,
into beautiful noise,
am I beautiful?
and it takes me way back when,
Punk Rock was my only friend,
and it's beautiful noise,
and it's beautiful,

let it out now,

in juvenile hall, 
in the psych ward, on the street,
got a song in my head,
and it sings me oh so sweet,
and I'm better than dead,
so I've put it on repeat,
sitting in my foster home,
no one'd ever been so alone,
but she made me a mixed tape,
and it helped me to escape,
this planet that I'm on,
you can't hurt me because I'm gone,
into beautiful noise,
into beautiful,

don't need no family,
no bank to scam me,
no church to damn me,
with hands cold and clammy,
no school to fool me,
no rule to rule me.
they lie so cruelly,
and one day soon you'll see,

let it out now,

all of my life,
trying so hard to shock,
there was a time,
when the key became a lock,
and I threw away my studs,
and shaved off my mohawk,
but I'm back, and all is Zen,
and we've fallen in love again,
me and my beautiful noise,
am I beautiful?
four chords and an angry taunt,
it can be whatever we want,
and it's beautiful noise,
and it's beautiful,

beautiful noise.

Beautiful Noise

POETRY IS VITAL

This threshold space exists for those who feel like listening to some of my quite professional poetry embedded in rather amateurishly recorded but judiciously arranged sound, a modicum of purely acoustic work notwithstanding.  Fortunately, some other artists have also transformed the symbolic expression of my words into the tangible beauty of real songs and soundscapes - just listen to Sympoetic Ultrasounds: https://soundcloud.com/sonic-textures/sets/sympoetic-ultrasounds !

SOUND, SPACE AND TIME

Tend your listening senses gently. Even though my general approach welcomes and embraces lo-fi concepts like the precision of spontaneously occuring imprecisions, headphones worth their membranes are recommended - unless you like your sounds flat, mangled, battered and helpless. You don't, do you? Be kind to these soundscapes.

STRUCTURING IMPULSE

Due to the nature of "poetry soundscapes", your listening expectations regarding traditionally structured "songs", sonically purified "raw wildlife soundscapes", keyboard-laden "ambient recordings" or voice-centered "readings" might not be met. You will find some of those in my list of /likes/. "Noise" is a recurring structural element like any other. This is what this sounds like - within its own rights, limitations, tangents and interconnections. Sonic structures. Silent stretches. Poetry emerges from the gaps between the ruts, seeps in from the undergrowth, sweeps down.

CARVING, CHISELLING, KNEADING, MORPHING

A quick glance into my toolshed rests on Zoom recorders, Samplitude software and a dizzying array of diverse sonic machinery. After all, sound is one way my poems know to materialize - insolently shapeshifting, indelibly greening into the cultural real.

LARGE AND SMALL GIFTS

-----------------------------
Small Gifts

the less to remember, the more to listen
gifts from the ice age reverberate
a simple story, a forest, a coastline
entangled in silence, one starts to relate
---------------------------------------------

In case you have read up to this point, you might be a sonic creator yourself. May I ask you for a helping ear? Above, there is a tiny poem of mine that I do not understand how to translate into sound. If you do - please act on it. It is a matter of common decency, of course, to keep the title (Small Gifts) and to credit the lyrics to me (jo richter). And please do notify me of your version via a soundcloud message. One bewilderingly beautiful version crafted by mono-lux has already gone public, as well as an amazing version by cthonicist.  You'll find both in my playlist Sympoetic Ultrasounds. This is just a small gift, not a challenge - life already has more than enough of those on offer, doesn't it? Treat it this way.

POETRY IS VITAL
sound, space and time
structuring impulse
carving, chiselling, kneading, morphing
large and small gifts
poetry is vital

GENERAL POLICY regarding the use of LIKES, REPOSTS and FOLLOWS:
I like what I like and want to hear again.
I only repost what I've had a hand in creating.
I follow when I see directions or arrivals I like, not when followed (though I might peek in to get an idea of what your sounds are about). I have set myself a limit of accounts I follow not be all too overwhelmed. Not following does therefore not mean I do not appreciate what you contribute to the enjoyments of soundcloud.
Do not expect other behaviour from me.
(jo richter)
