Keru Not Ever - Mezzanine
Label: Infinite Machine
CAT#: IM115
Format: Digital
Release Date: December 20th
Mastered by Fausto Mercier

Words by Keru Not Ever.

Mezzanine is an album of post-classical music. The twelve pieces that make it up are attempts to take the raw materials of instrumental music, dip them in mud, and turn them into shimmering confetti. Flutes, violins, clarinets, voices, cellos, piano, bass—these elements are all there, woven together through a mixture of hyper-sampling and recording, creating a chamber music without walls, without windows, suspended in stagnant air and multicolored dust. The conductor lies in bed, sheets pulled up to his shoulders.

Modeled on human breath, the pieces highlight the phenomena of loops and feedback, as though each time a theme is voiced, it must be repeated, insisted upon, until something else — a counter-melody — emerges to disrupt it. This is clear from the very first piece, Requiem Caesura, which functions like the tuning of a small orchestra, seemingly deaf to itself. Then come, to name just a few, the shimmering wind arrangements of Ghisolabella, the pulsing glissandi of the solo bass in Mezzanine, and, finally, the epilogue, Harmonies de la brûlure, a tableau of slow-moving harmonic ashes.

This album took a long time to create, the time it took to free myself from Tereza and The Wind Of? — old, forgotten music. Whether that time was worth it, that is, the doubt in which every melody is born, I can’t say. What composes is always next to myself, an extimacy. But it's a leap in time, an interval of a few years, a leap based on certain musical ruins, anonymous shreds twisted in the throes of a pandemic, in the love and joys, the sudden lights striking the blind spots of a body. These are companion pieces produced from the detritus of history. They hold out a cold hand to those who lend an ear.

৲ 𝓢𝓦𝓘𝓝𝓔 𝓟𝓡𝓔𝓜𝓘𝓔𝓡𝓔 ৲ @holy-strays / Sébastien Forrester - "Coruscate III"

➠ Sébastien Forrester has always had a recurring obsession with traditional and idiosyncratic sounds – his very first encounter with music as a child was indeed the Bwiti ritual drums, while living in Gabon, Central Africa, with his family. He is known for mixing innovative leftfield drumming, ceremonial atmospherics and eruptive sound design.

➠ "Coruscate" is a new work for tuned gongs, bowed vibraphone, chime bells & orchestral cymbals, written & produced over a six-month period that stretched from late December 2023 to June 2024. This project is artists' most intimate and meditative work to date.

Know V.A.: Hibernation (Knives)
Release date: 6th November, 2020

Knives follow this Summer’s Kuedo OST release with a club tool EP from DJ / producer duo, Know V.A. 

'Hibernation' traces ecstatic elements from the hard dance music familiar to their formative experience growing up in Holland, and fuses them with more UK leaning frameworks of late 90s techstep and late 00s vaporous grime, forming an ode to the romantic nostalgia of a shared club experience. Across the 5 tracks on 'Hibernation', Know V.A. set baroque string and choral arrangements into orbit around a hypnotic meandering of fierce gabber stabs and chattering percussion - at once reminiscent of both devine, classical ceremony and flailing club experience, drenched in sweat.

Know V.A. have performed internationally for a range of promoters and venues, such as Boiler Room and Stedelijk Museum. They curate the event and club night ‘Strange Days’, which seeks to showcase contemporary hardcore experimentalism and explore how the genre, sonically and visually has remained active in the underground. Their soundtrack work includes music for Calvin Klein and the acclaimed hardcore documentary 'Thunderdome Never Dies'. 

A collaborative artwork for the project is provided in the form of an emblem designed by artist Nicholas Law, subsequently animated by Winston Duke.

As of 2020 Knives is an independent project, now separate from any parent label.
