Artist: blackbody_radiation 
Title: Ultra-Materials
Cat#: faitiche 32
Release: September 8th 2023
Format: LP/DL

Faitiche welcomes Andrew Black aka blackbody_radiation. His debut album Ultra-Materials gathers six ghostly drones, created with the help of sound masking.

Andrew Black, who hails from one of the UK's post industrial North West Milltowns has a sensitive feeling for space and its acoustics. Having trained as a designer and operated within the realms of architecture and public space, it was only natural to extend his interest to manipulating field recordings.  The six pieces collected on Ultra-Materials provide an insight into Black's highly sensitive minimalism: they stand for a subtly meandering mediation on room acoustics and place, which are manipulated with the help of sound masking, among other things - that is, the addition and superimposition of artificially generated frequencies to mask unwanted sounds.   Sometimes the pieces are reminiscent of warm engine noise, sometimes one thinks of carefully captured natural phenomena. Their strength lies in their elusiveness: free of concrete attributions or musical location, they can unfold their hypnotic pull without revealing anything about their origins. Harmonics at times shimmer, at times warble and at times coexist. It is an attempt to get in touch with our listening abilities.

(Basic House - Review)
As PureData, Emiliano Pennisi crafts otherworldly electro-acoustic compositions formed from a vault of sound drawn from synthesis, field recordings and contemporary computer music.

Dissimulazione hints towards a profound knowledge of techno rigour but skirts any obvious geometries in favour of obfuscated and meta-coded electronics, those culutured in laboratory environments. Indeed Pennisi has honed his ear on the historical importance of INA-GRM and Metamkine, purporting to a specific love of Horacio Vaggiones’ work, alongside that of Aaron Dilloway and earlier electronic music via Smithsonian Recordings. These influences can be felt amongst other more academic guides through mathematics and cosmology.

The music is a flickering screen, a boiling crucible and an orbiting craft at once. Jerome Noetingers concept of "Cinema for the Ear" is once again beautifully realised. The music dramatic and often unearthly yet always reconnected to human agency, feelings of disorder, ordered and our earth crawling with insects and digital signals alike, all emitters in the eye of the same.

Without falling further into hysterics and hyperbole allow yourself time to listen and perceive the depth and detail of these works which cover a period between 2016 and 2024 and only scratches the surface of this artists body of work.

ISSUE Project Room
22 Boerum Place, Brooklyn

Saturday, June 9th, ISSUE is thrilled to present a rare U.S. performance from celebrated Paris-based Argentinian artist Horacio Vaggione, composer of electroacoustic and computer-assisted music and pioneer of micromontage, granular synthesis, and microsound.

As early as the 1960s, Vaggione began coupling his compositional work with computation as a means of transposing digital concerns to the instrumental level. His music is characterized by lively, often violent colors, but also by subtle relationships that are set up between acoustic instruments and recorded or computer-generated elements. For Vaggione, composing is a process of generating veritable, unique events and articulating them within a multiplicity of timescales, scalable within ever-expanding digital environments. Vaggione parses through tense and often false dichotomies between multiplicitous and univocal sonic elements, with granular sound positioned and manipulated without the unity of the sound source being lost. His compositions concern morphology (the study of the forms of things) by building sturdy structures from these minute grains, bringing the ear to a sonic world made up of atoms forming and reforming in their cohesion. Here, a snare drum can be defined merely by the sharpness of its timbre -- the rubbing, bouncing, and multiphonic spread of its impact deconstructed and emphasized by software.

Having not performed in New York in decades, at ISSUE Vaggione presents three recent works: PianoHertz (2012) and Mécanique des fluides (2015), both released on the 2017 empreintes DIGITALes CD Fluides, as well as the brand new work Timpani (2018). PianoHertz was composed from a collection of piano sounds that Vaggione played, recorded, and expanded digitally with the intention to foster the birth of multiple classes -- some retaining the dynamic traits of the original sounds while others representing radical mutations. Vaggione describes Mécanique des fluides as differentiating between laminar (smooth) sounds and turbulent (intermittent) sounds as a means of articulating associated levels of polyphonic activity within a conception of sound as fluid. Timpani has never been heard publicly.

The evening opens with a performance from 51717, the intuitive language of New York-based artist Lili Schulder, presenting new work that explores themes of “Perfected Fear” described in the rabbinic literature of Genesis Rabbah, as well as the exorcism of anguish as it has become understood within Jewish Meditation and the interpretations of Reb Nachman of Bratslav.

51717 takes the droning and whispered sounds of the synagogue as a point of departure, interpreting Reb Nachman’s “still small voice” to become a sonic “scream in the mind” that channels and re-codes loudness through a subdued and meditative practice. Using field recordings from domestic settings and site specific locations in Poland and Germany, and techniques of repetition, moving stillness, restraint, and tension, 51717 keeps her sonic sources hidden, rather focusing on the transmission and decay of overwhelming thematic elements into minor sonic forms. Here, her work touches on implicit musical tensions between noise and silence, language and sound, material and transcendence -- dichotomies that often form the binaristic conditions that are confronted and deconstructed within meditative and ritualistic practice.

Horacio Vaggione - LIVE at ISSUE / June 9th, 2018

Multiple layered recordings varying in tone, speed, and clarity from the same 6 inch piece of 1/4" tape. The tape scrap was found hanging from a tree on the property of Belchertown, MA's 'Cold Spring Hollow'. The house is known for its haunted history and connecting point to the underground railroad. Permission for the tape's retrieval was granted by E. Brown.

Additional featured textured recordings were used from donations made by S. Hardacre and C. Reierson.

The track Cold Spring Spirits is taken from the first Magnetic Coroner full-length: "Time Maligned". This c34 contains six recycled tape compositions and will be available 1/22/18 through http://primeruin.bigcartel.com

ISSUE Project Room
22 Boerum Place, Brooklyn

Thursday, January 23rd, ISSUE is pleased to present Just The Right Height, the solo music project of interdisciplinary artist Keke Hunt, and Drumloop, the recent moniker of artist and musician Daffy Scanlan, each presenting new solo work. Both artists chart critical new contexts at the intersection of fragmented narrative, sound design, pop music, song, and experimental composition.

Daffy Scanlan’s work has long drawn on the lines between electronic and organic sonics. Composing climatic melodies scaled up to expansive, affecting vistas, Scanlan combines heavily processed vocals and poetic storytelling -- exploring fragmented collage and pop stylings in equal measure. A skilled pianist as a child, she worked between analog gear and Fruity Loops throughout her youth, releasing harsh noise and power electronics on a string of labels. But it was after her suitcase was stolen in 2017, containing almost all of her music equipment that Scanlan dove deep into FL Studio, turning a trying moment into an opportunity for deep sonic exploration of the software. The result were compositions with extensive nuance, accents, and details all flecked with digital detritus and swirling waves of echo -- hovering between emotional meltdown and resilience. In 2018, Scanlan released her debut album Revenge Body as Drumloop via Sweat Equity. She continues to self-release tracks through SoundCloud.

Daffy Scanlan is an artist from New Jersey, who is currently based in New York City. Her work explores the transportation of objects / language through time and space, channeling their degeneration and disembodiment. She combines cracked and broken textures with dinged color stories, creating portals into a canon of abuse and trauma. Her compositions resemble cornucopias of disintegrating figures, like glowing bunches of archaic characters. She believes disappearing is equal to omnipresence.

Drumloop - LIVE at ISSUE / January 23rd, 2020

PureData explores the realm of contemporary sound arts through the utilization of electronic and analog instruments, such as Eurorack modules and vintage synthesizers. 

This exploration results in a profound and introspective auditory experience characterized by a captivating fusion of IDM, slow techno, and cinematic elements. 
PureData's work is deeply concerned with the convergence of visual and auditory arts.

Similar to many electronic artists, PureData's early years were marked by experimentation within the realms of IDM, glitch, and dance music. However, a constant thread throughout PureData's musical journey has been the pursuit of a more organic and humanized sonic expression. Through these explorations, PureData has developed an electronic music production process that aligns more closely with this creative aspiration.
