The Upload

Good morning. I hope that you are well. Today I have another beautiful track to share with you via this exclusive premiere. Or maybe it's a video premiere. I actually couldn't decide, so I've asked Cedric Vermue if I can publish both. I think it was a good decision and I hope you will agree. I first got introduced to this Dutch pianist, composer and producer of fragile, nostalgic, and serene neoclassical-meets-ambient music [the cross-over genre] when I premiered a piece titled "We Came and Left" from his Left Upon Us album on Piano and Coffee back in 2019.  Besides playing the piano, Vermue also plays the church organ as well as analogue synths which he incorporates with Rhodes during his live performances. He returns early in March, this time on a fairly new to the scene, Utrecht (The Netherlands) based independent imprint, mylja. I have previously introduced this boutique record label started by Yaron Cohen and Daniël Leseman in 2020 with this writeup of Alchi's Full Of It. I am happy to see that the label continues to persevere in its output of absolutely gorgeous music [this crazy world demands more beauty!]. And Vermue's upcoming album is a perfect addition to the catalogue! "Perpetua is the Latin word for infinity, referring to the Christian tradition that played an important part in the inspiration for this album, taking inspiration from Gregorian melodies and old organ music." The piece I'm featuring today is a recomposed Gregorian Sanctus melody (Sanctus XI) played on a piano and clarinet. The captivating video, directed by Victoria Ushkanova, and "shot on a cold wintery day in a forest near Almere", features Nicolo Zanotti, interpreting cascading arpeggios complemented by Lex Houtermans (clarinet and contra-clarinet) and Rudi van Hest (clarinet). There is a lot more I can say about the production, credits and approach, but instead of lifting the veil of mystery, I'd rather let the music do the talking... and let emotion sweep away...

Following the 130701 imprint for over two decades has been a rewarding experience. After all, this is the same offshoot of FatCat that brought us the best of Max Richter, Hauschka, Jóhann Jóhannsson, and yes, even introduced the world to Sigur Rós. This is what a label does best - it puts a "label" on its output, essentially a stamp of approval, if you will, of what it is excited to support. And this is why I hungrily continue to consume pretty much everything in its catalogue, especially by artists previously unknown to me. [And, secretly, I hope that you can say the same about the purpose of my words]. Today, I'd like to share with you a track by the Danish composers Emil Friis and Patricio Fraile, who are best known for their film and television scores (again, mostly for the Danish audience). For their collaboration titled The Expected Sounds Of Minor Music, the duo composed eleven vignettes with minimal piano melodies supported by a string quartet and solo cello performed by Joe Zeitlin. "The album's layered and intimate sound, along with its ability to encourage contemplation [...] reflect the duality of life, encompassing both the major and minor moments." This is a perfect soundtrack to wake up to and start a brand new day, bringing forth some optimism, serenity, and hope... even as it's mostly based on minor keys.

We are happy to host a really beautiful mix from luçïd, an unique storyteller. luçïd is a french artist based in Paris. He has a fascination to translate visuals through music: to hear colors and see sounds. Like a picture, it’s always about textures, light beams and shadows, a refraction of light. The sun is going up or down, very late or very early: This is when luçïd loves to share DownTempo beats and SlowHouse tunes. lucïd’s obsession for telling stories through sounds and create narrative drops & kicks is always an exploration. 
This one is a Sparkling Odyssey …
