B Und D - Pulverizer

Video link : https://vimeo.com/146205035

Inspired by the works of Philip K. Dick, William Gibson, and Iain Banks, Sonical’s composition, LockerX, from the new SuperCollisions EP, is an elegant amalgam of the Kurzweilian Singularity and non-Euclidean geometry. LockerX is beautifully brought to life with a striking three-dimensional animation of a dystopian future set in the Boötes Constellation – a sonical and visual expression of a technological supraorganism that lends itself to introspective transformation.
Phi, also known as the “golden ratio” or the “golden mean”, was used to generate the sounds in SuperCollider, which is a programming language for real time audio synthesis and algorithmic composition. The golden mean appears in all forms of science and nature, and has been used by mankind for centuries in architecture. For Sonical, the application of the golden ratio to aspects of sound was a fundamentally organic step in the evolution of his compositions.

BEAM07 Sonical - Learning To Count

Being no stranger to pushing the boundaries with 15 years of output through this and other identities (Beam Up, DJ Delay and sound installations su nominee worldwide), including previous Australian bands (High Pass Filter, Breather Hole).
This second EP from SONICAL ventures into the land of less travelled time signatures, using different odd time signatures as a rhythmical base.

The works express themselves through a variety of moods - metal parody (Cheating Death), cartoonbeat (Toothy), abstract orientalism (Sevenost) and industrial warehouse noisybeat (Take It Again). All are underpinned with solid subsonics and bunker-club- ready muscular fake 909s. Learning To Count is firmly in the adventurous beat camp, with tongue firmly in gena.


Beaming Productions has prepared 1 liners for each track to set the mood:

Toothy - Derived from sketchy memories of the 70s english cartoon "Roobarb & Custard" 
Take 5 .- Disgruntled metal factory worker 
Sevenost - Turkish musician from 2090 battles the elastic baseline
Cheating Death - Sword wielding nordic fantasy character duels lightning atop a mountain

Get your tap shoes on & cut a mean-ass figure on the dancefloor to "Learning To Count".

Out Mid March 2013
