Shuffling dub/ambient and downtempo for your holiday season, mostly old with a bit of new. Enjoy:)

December 2022

On February 6th, two earthquakes took the lives of over 40,000 and counting Turkish, Syrian and Kurdish people, and displaced millions more, in what is one of the most devastating natural disasters of the 21st century. The effects of this disaster will be felt for years to come, and we as an international community need to raise money however we can to help, and also need to keep the crisis visible in global news.

On Sunday, February 19th, we hosted a fundraiser event at arkaoda Berlin, in collaboration with Root Radio, Radio Alhara and Resident Advisor. It was be a chance for people from the affected communities to meet and mourn together, to listen to some DJs from these regions play downtempo sets, to buy some donated artworks and crafts and, most importantly, to raise money. 

Together, we raised 12,000€ which was split equally between three reliable organisations: AHBAP who focus on Turkey, The White Helmets focusing on Syria and Heyva Sor focusing on Kurdish people.

We are pleased to present to you the first Space Cast Premier from one of our talented artists. Many of you will know him from his gorgeous release on Space Cast 004 as Tres Passings. Now, as an evolution of past monikers, forms and ideas - per sonar (@personar1) has emerged. The first release from this nascent project, ‘The River Runs from the Weather Maker’ is a visual and sonic pairing, intertwined in their creation and interaction.

As a composer, per sonar is in constant conversation with moving image, with either the visuals informing the sonic or vice versa. For The River Runs from the Weather Maker they were created in tandem using an audio-reactive visualiser as a compositional tool.

‘When I first started work on this piece, I selected sonic elements that produced the best visual response (which tended to be low frequency and/or percussive). After reaching the limits of visualiser as a stand-alone compositional tool, I continued working on the piece with the live visualiser running in the background. It ended up serving as real-time feedback for whenever I needed direction for a new layer or section.’

This release is a perfect display of the artist's antipodean exploration of the relationship between sound and vision, and the play of conventional hierarchies between them. This work is a dialectic between two elements, a back-and-forth exchange of sound and visuals, leading to a synthesis that transcends the individual mediums and gives rise to an engaging, multisensory experience.

The piece is grounded with an inkling of nostalgia. It begins with a gentle patter of watery notes and tender chords that echo throughout the track and unfurl with sonic fluidity. Instruments continue to seamlessly layer upon each other, delicately entwining until the tide changes, moving elsewhere for just a moment with a sense of unease, before resolving softly again as the water trickles away. The subtle use of found sounds and field recordings create a feeling of familiarity, without giving anything solid to grasp onto.

Similarly, the visual component is a clever play between abstract and representational imagery. Stirring memories of landscapes gazed through car windows on long drives overlaid with a kaleidoscopic pattern that flutters and sinks/syncs in and out of things we know and things we don't know. per sonar calls upon the visual narrative at key sonic moments which elicit echoes of memories, oneiric in nature, attempting to resurface.

The River Runs from the Weather Maker is now available for pre-order via Bandcamp, due for release on the 2nd of June.

"The lights went off and we decided to start."
We are deeply excited to share Donato and Marco’s grand finale for the last edition of Terraforma at Villa Arconati. With great humbleness, these two masters and dear friends have carefully broadened and lulled, record after record, an intimate space of trust, exchange and deep-time connection. 
 
Also, we’d like to add a fond memory that was shared with us a few days after:

“Dozzy and Shuttle’s finale unfolded like twilight. A prolonged dusk caressed by an eerie drizzle. Shadows and whispers echoing with the surroundings. Synapses slowly reaching the ground, merging and becoming one with the underground rhizomatic networks. A memorable rendez-Nous within a fractal space. It felt like being at the core center of the matrix, enveloped by a warmth reminiscent of a maternal womb. I found myself in a weightless suspension, envisioning the past, the present and the future, all together in a blink of an eye.”

We are fueled by gratitude for all this beauty.

o.utlier(아웃라이어)는 영국에서 활동중인 아일랜드 출신의 일렉트로닉 뮤지션이다. 그는 프로덕션과 퍼포먼스 전반에 걸쳐 전자음과 어쿠스틱 사운드를 결합한 사운드스케이프를 통해 청취자의 깊은 각성 상태를 유도하는 방식을 즐긴다. 날렵한 타악기와 반짝거리는 신디사이져 소리는 물론, 거친 드론과 필드 레코딩에 이르기까지 다양한 사운드 팔레트를 활용하여 만들어지는 o.utlier의 수수께끼 같은 사운드스케이프는, 어떤 맥락에서든 항상 밀도 높은 분위기와 침착한 전달력으로 뇌를 자극하는 의식적인 여정을 만들어낸다.
o.utlier의 음반은 그동안 Appian Sounds [UK], Soul People Music [US], Naif [Germany], Verdant [UK], On Board Music [DE], SZE [UK], Northern Electronics [SE]와 같은 레이블에서 발매되었으며, 보다 실험적인 작품을 발표하기 위해 Titrate Records [UK]를 공동 운영하고 있다. 2023년 9월에는 그의 데뷔 앨범인 Alaya가 발매되었다.

o.utlier is an Irish electronic musician based in the UK who  creats soundscapes that combine electronic and acoustic sounds throughout his productions and performances to induce a deep state of alertness in listeners. Utilizing a diverse palette of sounds, ranging from sharp percussion and shimmering synths to harsh drones and field recordings, o.utlier's enigmatic soundscapes create a conscious journey that stimulates the brain, always with a dense atmosphere and calm delivery in any context.
o.utlier's recordings have been released on labels such as Appian Sounds [UK], Soul People Music [US], Naif [Germany], Verdant [UK], On Board Music [DE], SZE [UK], Northern Electronics [SE], and he co-runs Titrate Records [UK] to focus on experimental works.
