SARA OSWALD + FELDERMELDER - DRAWN
Cat #: OUS033
Release date: June 18, 2021

«The way we approach recording music — starting from an inner and outer void, where there is just acoustical action and reaction — is an attempt to emulate and slow down the fleeting memories that occur during a near death experience. A scintillating recollection that is the essence of who we are, slowed down and enhanced in order to be captured.» - Sara Oswald + Feldermelder

Prolific cellist Sara Oswald and experimental electronic musician Feldermelder present a captivating experience that resembles the suspended timelessness of an embryonic world. The way in which the duo modulate our perception of time, across this EP of three distinct pieces, represents an impressive display of aesthetic power, enabling listeners to experience the here and now in a total, physical engagement, and to travel through endless, transitional states of mind. «Drawn» is a meditation, where process becomes form. 

The first piece ‘Fishes in Histogram Waterfalls’ opens up a time-space where acoustic elements meet electronics; a fragile and organic encounter that nevertheless remains potent and precise. In this Sara Oswald and Feldermelder form resonant clouds of sound that hover and move discreetly. 	

The second piece ‘Volcanic Meditation Walks’ is more rhythmically defined, punctuated by repetitive accents and imbued with an enchanting, longing melody. Interspersed with heavy, phantasmal electronics, the track evokes a surreal passage across a scorched landscape, like a trek at the foot of Mount Etna.

«Drawn» reflects a dislocation of conventional temporality, and with the final piece ‘Short Term Memories’ the duo offer a denouement, where ‘the naked truth of our existence is revealed’, where every moment is again just another shift, another liminal state. Here they embody the perpetual flow of existence, where birth and death form a circle — where the same form never reappears — where every moment is unique. And where memory has its limits, because neither past nor future really exist.

Legendary duo Matt Black and Jonathan More aka Coldcut deliver a boundless career spanning Bleep mix. Since the late 1980s, their sound has morphed from cut-and-paste approaches into some of the foundations of every alternative and electronic hip-hop LP made well into the millennium. The duo’s exclusive Bleep mix is testimony to how deep their impact has been over the years, as each selection indelibly refracts from their own innovations. Actress and Floating Points are in there, as well as some ace remixes of Marie Davidson and Cinematic Orchestra, and of course, a smattering of Coldcut’s own collaborations with Bug Brand Modular and Synth Farm.

Bleep Mix #183 - Coldcut

Korea Town Acid is the moniker of Jessica Cho; an outlet for her multi-faceted work which draws on her classically trained background but with a futuristic and experimental outlook.

Born in Seoul and now based in Toronto, KTA's entry into music came early when her mother signed her up for piano lessons. Her movements in electronic music came much later, though these formative skills still remain intact, helping her carve out a distinctive sound that pulls from jungle, glitch, future bass, alternative hip hop and IDM.

These tastes ring through her DJ sets and radio shows too. You can hear her soundtracking the airwaves each month on The Lot Radio, as well as via her new monthly transmission on HKCR called 'Coping Mechanisms' which hones in on abstract and experimental sounds.

With a mini LP under her belt for Cosmic Resonance back in 2018, she's recently levelled up for her debut full length 'Metamorphosis', so we felt there was no better time to invite her to bring the goods for this week's Ransom Note mix...

For the 200th entry of our Bleep mix series, we bring you none other than Mark Broom, the British house and techno artist kicking up a storm under many guises since ‘89. As you can imagine, Broom’s gathered quite a collection since those heady days, from which he draws a selection of gems for this mix. 

“I've been digging through my vinyl collection recently & I've amassed quite a few classics over the years & this was the perfect excuse to showcase them in a mix. I've also included one track from my new album Fünfzig on Rekids & an exclusive edit of the Underground Resistance favourite 'Jupiter Jazz'” - @beardman

Eddie Chacon experienced proper, peak-nineties acclaim in the soul duo Charles and Eddie: they scored a global No. 1 in 1992 with “Would I Lie To You,” appeared three times on Top of the Pops, and featured on soundtracks from True Romance to Super Mario Bros.. Their crooning style was clearly pop-ready, but undeniably reverent: the pair first met when Eddie noticed Charles carrying a vinyl copy of Marvin Gaye’s "Trouble Man” on a New York subway train.

By that time, Chacon had already been navigating music in interesting ways, all the way back to his teen garage rock band with the late Cliff Burton (Metallica) and Mike Bordin (Faith No More). In the late ’80s, he released a full-length on Uncle Luke from 2 Live Crew’s label and signed to Columbia as a solo act. He was a working artist, always popping up in unexpected places: through the course of his career, Chacon would write, sing, or produce ten Top 40 hits around the globe.

In the words of Mac DeMarco: “Eddie Chacon is planet earth’s number one musician. Yesterday, today, and forever.”

Years ago, Chacon retired from music for a second calling as a fashion photographer and creative director. In an interview at the time, he said, “I was fortunate to have a 35-year music career and felt that there wasn’t that much more for me to say or achieve.” Very thankfully, that’s no longer the case. Private experiments, far from the major-label center he once frequented, began to feel urgent and new. “There’s nothing more exciting for me than getting to start from the beginning again,” he says today.

“Pleasure, Joy and Happiness” will be available July of 2020 on the boutique Los Angeles-based label Day End Records. This is a thoughtfully considered album of quiet, confident R&B: it doesn’t jump out at you, but rather gets in you. Produced by John Carroll Kirby, the like-minded artist and collaborator with Frank Ocean and Solange Knowles, it features restrained percussion from Kanye West’s Sunday Service drummer Lamar Carter. Celestial soul as a break from chaos, these are quietly challenging songs as timeless as they are contemporary.

“What a rare and cool challenge it was for me to help Eddie re-emerge after a long hiatus,” says John Carroll Kirby. “I was excited to produce a record for him that captured the chill, laid-back wisdom and easy vocal mastery he has that you don’t see that much these days.”

Lead single “My Mind Is Out of Its Mind” finds a deep groove to try and contain spiraling heartbreak, while the sweet and wobbly “Trouble” balances the delightful near whisper of the title track “Pleasure, Joy and Happiness.” But even the project’s lightest moments feel sincere and mature. Altogether: a truly unifying release, coming from a man who’s earned the right to share such a regal, romantic sound.

“I used to think to myself,” Chacon says, “if I ever make a record again, I’d want it to be a record you’d have to be my age to make.”
