The Scene (The Album)

Your Local Acquaintance

Rezo Glonti - @auxfield
During the Soviet era, art often had to align with propaganda, seemingly fostering a symbiotic relationship between the state and its people. Consequently, in the realm of “Social Realism,” most forms of artistic experimentation were strongly discouraged and even punishable. With few exceptions, 20th-century Georgian classical/chamber music remained quite conservative; however, when faced with dysfunctional cultural phenomena, there will always be gaps in societal walls through which oppressed cultures can carry their historical heritage and unique paradigms.


In 2018, Glonti started collecting LPs of Soviet-era Georgian composers at Tbilisi’s “Dry Bridge” flea market.The records mostly consisted of classical and chamber music released on Melodiya, the singular, state owned record label of the USSR. It was through this process that the idea of Recollection was born, as Glonti aimed to create an album that would utilize samples from his growing collection.


Recollection I-II will be the first release in a series of 7’’ records, followed by three more releases. The artwork by Dmytro Nikolaienko of Day Night reflects the generic qualities of Soviet-era cover art.

A poet. A sailor. An Artist.
ALVUANA

MY NAME IS RIVEIRA, RIVEIRA BAILEY... the brainchild creation of Joshua Baptista, is a post-rock glam-renaissance conceptual character linked to the concept of ALVUANA - the end of a significant or meaningful period of time. Taking influences all from history, from Bowie to Black Midi, ALVUANA will be released soon after being worked on since aged 12 - 7 years ago. From poetry about the fragile masculinity and gender, the lone voyage we all must take, the intricacies of the hyperreal world - Riveira aims to challenge and evoke a more classic sense of song writing along with the most exuberant wardrobe you've ever seen. Just like their clothes, it all looks like a mismatch from afar, but put together - it all makes sense.

Established in 2017, the Intergalactic Research Institute for Sound has been an outlet for artistic and experimental endeavors that go beyond electronic music.
Evocative soundscapes from Georgia were the first communication from the Institute. It has since released music from Ukrainian artist Stanislav Tolkachev, acclaimed duo Air Liquide, or Georgian producer Michailo.
Michailo notably worked on his EP in prison, sending files to the label through intermediaries. He was released early, shortly after his record came out.
These days, it is also the home of STAUB’s unknown artists and of the cello robots that keep company with Schloss Mirabell.
With its blurring aesthetics, the Institute travels from clubs to museums and always pushes its exploration further.

Joran Elane (singer and co-founder of the fantasy band Elane) published her first solo album “Glenvore” in 2014. She is a sorceress, bard and storyteller of the modern era. Swept away by deep emotions she goes on a quest which she mirrors in her intense romantic music: songs arranged for orchestra, often accompanied by guest artists from near and far. 

She invites you along to a magical journey where the stars shine brighter again, and dreams and legends come to life. This type of music will probably delight fans of Enya, Loreena McKennitt and Elane. Let yourself be enchanted by the incredible sounds of Glenvore…
