The narrative for this one is more peculiar than our previous mixes, it could be a weird pandemic hangover from a depressive-hedonia era, a dive by night through a neo-medieval, accelerated but retarded Shibuya to eventually ending dancing together, burning our self-help books while looking to an acid horizon.

Painting The Apocalypse

Antre opens with a fast-paced 4/4, driving bass, scattered breaks and dubby pads. Vigil perpetuates the atmosphere with a half time, bass-heavy beat, startling arps and outherworldly synths. 12subcult08 is a ride through syncopated beats, subaqueous tones, ravey break sections, changing tempi and an introspective verse central section. Scatter07 unifies ORTRA's love for industrial, broken percussion, glitchy samples, and synth jams and heavy bass.

Emcsi – Janus

method: field recordings, virtual instruments, voice
narration: some of the dirty secrets of self-awareness in relationships ... and one way of dealing with them; this also is an exercise in recovering the integrity of poems that have been belittled, willfully ignored  and poked fun at quite some time ago
image: actually, the device depicted - called a multimemo - before the image was distorted, that is - is included in creating this soundscape, which was somewhat inspired by and refers to elo-covers ....  although those are quite different .... the cover for an album called 'out of the blue'' and the  cover for an album  a friend understood to mean "disco - very". He was a genius musician who aleady earned an entertainer's income while going to middle school in the 1970s  ... thanks to his hammond and his talent. Only in later years did I understand myself....  that the syncretism of 'disc', 'discovery' and the images of ali baba and a uap is an astonishing feat in itself. copyright jo richter.

poem / copyright jo richter
(as published in 'halb loh, halb zunder, halb glanz):

als sie nicht mehr logen
fühlten sie sich bloß
wie tiere ohne fell
wie fische ohne meer
ein jeder wind blies kalt
im ozean aus luft

sie rezitierten laut
ihr alphabet der furcht
wieder und wieder
im hoffen auf götter
der himmel blieb leer

bis auf zwei vögel

die kreisten auf suche
nach beute und fleisch

interlinear translation; apart from two birds // when they had stopped lying / they felt as naked / as animals without fur / as fish without the seas / and each kind of wind / blew with a chill in the airy oceans // they chanted out loud / their alphabet of fear / again and again / hoping for gods / when heavens remained empty // apart from two birds // circling, looking / for fresh prey and meat //
