No night is long enough for us to dream twice

Jean-Luc Godard’s past rests in thousands of cardboard boxes. The filmmaker has incorporated his entire personal archive to an inconspicuous place in France that hides numerous film rolls, personal belongings and reel to reel sound tapes. In 2014 Soundwalk Collective received access to this archive and now offers a Godard acoustic behind the scenes: in meticulous detailed work, the trio’s extracted recordings from before and after Godard’s film takes. Stage directions, the atmosphere on the set, false starts and new attempts to show the universe of a perfectionist and phantasmagoric personality. “Art attracts us only by what it reveals of our most secret self.” (Godard)

“Son Seul - JLG Joue Du Piano” is part of "What We Leave Behind": a work-in-progress album composed solely of unreleased fragments of sound that were recorded on the film sets of Jean-Luc Godard, and never saw the light of day. The sound composition shows us the very real and somewhat forgotten audiovisual archive of the film director, rediscovered by accident somewhere in France.

I’ve only discovered Kryshe a few months ago when I stumbled upon his Insights album, released on Unperceived Records. The record was a surprising delight, leaving me slightly bewildered as to the origin of Christian Grothe‘s music. I immediately fell in love with Grothe’s intricately detailed passages and recommended the album to all the fans of modern classical and cinematic works alike. So it was even a bigger astonishment (but, of course, justified in its own terms) that I received the news on Kryshe’s yet another upcoming release, this time on the beloved Serein, where it undoubtedly belongs. Today, Headphone Commute is premiering a title track off of this album, titled March Of The Mysterious.

Only six months after his sophomore album, which has showcased a "tense repetition of short phrases, often building big, dramatic pieces starting with a single stuck-in-the-machine sound" (Decoder) and an "analogue cyber trip-hop of an impressive depth of focus as an acoustic furniture for an apocalypse lounge" (Groove), Hentschel returns with a two-piece EP showcasing yet another aspect of his musical spectrum. While the first two albums featured only instrumental tracks, "Facades" are the first two pieces in which Orson Hentschel works with text as a main musical element for his composition, although he approaches vocals from a rather particular perspective.

For Hentschel, the spoken word is always music and thus not different than any other instrumental input or sound layer. Consequently, he is only interested in the sound of the spoken words on Facades, but not in any content they convey. The idea for Facades was born at a time when Hentschel was struggling with a writer's block for several days in a row. He realised that just writing about nothing was the only honest way for him to express himself through text as a medium. After doing some research on the subject he found John Cage's "Lecture on nothing" which has appeared in the book "Silence" (1961). This encouraged him to work out his idea and he wrote a German text which then Danhee Joe, an accidental acquaintance of his, translated into Korean and spoke with her warm voice. Thus Orson Hentschel used the text in the same way as he uses any sound material - it is transformed into something else, it is being alienated. The spoken words are embedded in repetitive and minimal-minded electronic sound layers which even penetrate primordial technoid territories. However, sticking to his trademark long arcs of suspense, the listener has to wait until the last two minutes of the second track for the first, cathartic beat.

Greetings friends! Once again the earth has circled the sun, and the fall season is upon us! As the days shorten, and the leaves fall, we are pleased to bring you this most appropriately seasonal release from Italian based musician, Francis M. Gri, entitled “Decays”. At times sounding like the soundtrack to a moody, somber Tarkovsky film, Gri has captured the din of the clatter and clang of life as it grows, and then rises in an uplifting anthemic glory to all that man has made, and unmade. Darkly delicate…constantly decaying and yet reborn again…eternally…

This little song came to me while I was improvising on my current piece and since the melody did not get out of my mind I decided to take a short break and release this one inbetween ...
