Odd Balade

Taken from SBKT064: sideproject - sourcepond
Release date: 30th May 2024

Following up from work on Björk´s 'Fossora', Icelandic trio 'sideproject' debut on SVBKVLT with their new full-length album 'sourcepond'. Taking influence from the fog-covered wetlands of their native island, sideproject transfigure influences from the low-end frequencies of grime and bass music, and reshape it into a haze of transient-smeared beats accompanied by breathy synths that grow ever wetter till they slip beneath the surface tensions of their harmonic stratum. Compared to previous output, 'sourcepond' opts for a more concise approach to their music, stacking up their influences of experimental electronic, Icelandic punk and contemporary club music, and builds a sound that oscillates between melodic hooks and experimental rhythms. Each track carves through the sensuous material, pulling the listener into the dank sourcepond as though magnetic forces were guiding a bird's beak towards misty horizons.

sideproject - wet cement

The sixth and last episode of the series ends up in North Africa - welcoming from Morocco Archidi, experimental composer, audiovisual manipulator, and noise maker of sublime harshness ; and Disektor, a sound designer, creative coder, music producer and founder of Geometric Corruption Records, pushing the limits of dissection into the most abstract territory. This last fragment is a living embodiment of unity, a testament to the power that once came from the union of many others, a deflagration of collective consciousness and cosmic oneness.

Sticky keys stuck on CTRL+V. Circuit loops. Something, something, grain of the voice. 
I made 6 chapters for this mix — utterances, industry, RPG, infoglut, dark forest, rips — but they collapsed into one another. researchcore, crushcore, corecore.
zourry flip. A lag, time buffers – a small rupture that pulls our attention outwards. Fingers caught in the margins of scans. Meditating on the loading circle. Acousmatic labour. Proliferation. Dissolution. Repetition. boring ahhhh. Re-production
This mix accompanies the zourry x SUPERMODEL syllabus available on the SOFT CENTRE discord https://discord.gg/NKGVaPrFjB

++ PRESENTATION ++

Scores +°-  glyphs to sounds !

+°°+--+
Scores is a compilation exploring musical notations and how they can be interpreted as sounds. People have always tried to translate sonic expressions into visual cues that could be archived, passed down, and transformed back into music. 

From symbols to numbers, grids, staffs, figures or abstract shapes, several languages have been developed and continuously questioned to improve the ability to retain the emotion and meaning sounds can convey - what lies behind the veil.
 
What if this time, the notation would come beforehand?

+°°+--+
The project unfolded in two phases. In the first one, visual artists from the Global URL Nation could propose one sheet of music score, free of interpretation. They were invited to play with musical notations and explore what it would even mean.
–
It welcomed chaggrin, Eurrope, M4X1US, MYEN, s1m0nc3ll0 & Ziyiz for 6 sheets


+°°+--+
In the second phase, artists from GUN could pick one sheet and create a track trying to follow it as much as possible. It invited them to question music as a physical object, with its shapes, colors, textures and layers with the following :

__How is the overall composition? Are there any axis or lines that could be interpreted as a timeline or a melodic scale?
__How many discrete elements are in the image? How are they laid out?
__What are the shapes involved?  What is their scale? Do they have sharp or blurry outlines?
__What are the colors/textures used? How do they relate with each other in terms of tones, contrasts…?
__How are the different elements layered on top of each other? Are they superimposed or do they merge in some way?
__How would they translate them in musical terms, such as textures, notes, structures, timbres, rhythms, dynamics? 

It welcomed Bademjan, Baje Nunca, C+Vis, Capiuz, Clair X, C.T.A.A.M.  Ecovoron, Epiphagi, HeedLess, Mambo Kahn, migu, POL100, Yau Hei ASJ & Ziyiz for 14 tracks ranging from ethereal scorescapes to hyperstimulating scratches. Sounds and shapes weave together, blurring the boundaries between the two media to create one whole entity

+°°+--+
With Scores, we invite you to seek the music that can be hidden in our surroundings, to decrypt and hear the phantom scores one can find in every shape, every color and every little visual detail __ open your ears and see the sounds, sometimes music lies in a simple fold of clothing
