Kumi Takahara - Nostalgia (Vague Imaginaires Remix)

Mothfly is the music project of Eunice Kim, who was born and raised in Tokyo and currently spends her time between Korea, Japan, and the US. She is a multi-talented artist who not only makes music, but also illustrates and works in media art. She produces experimental pop that mixes electronic elements with warm acoustic sounds.
Her first single Pure is a minimal dream pop track that undulates between melancholy and hope. It layers fragile but warm sounds from electric and acoustic cello, analog synthesizer, and voice.

"Writing this song served as a kind of meditative healing process for me. It’s about mourning lost innocence. I recorded it in my room and my friend’s room in Seoul and Los Angeles. I wanted to convey a sense of sincerity and intimacy through the rawness of the arrangement and the recording." - Eunice Kim

“When I go into the nature and focus on particular sounds as if I were the conductor, I find there are numerous accidentally composed music playing here and there. And my idea was to join this nature orchestra providing sounds to them to form another different world which would enable myself to listen to them from a completely different angle.
I decided to use water as the main theme as I’m somehow attracted to them maybe as I grew up in a place where it’s cloudy and raining all year around. Sounds evolved accidentally from different places of different period and times, and that very moment I played / not played to them. To me, it was full of excitement to join the nature. Some sounds were able to record upon countless visits, and some just happen to be lying there. I tried different approaches so that people can enjoy and face each and every sounds. It would be my pleasure if you can listen to the happenings and the inevitable, and also conscious and the subconscious. “

この作品は、自然の中で自然の音と共に演奏をし、後に多重録音などをしないというコンセプトで作った作品です。
僕は自分が指揮者にでもなったつもりで音を選んで聴けば、身の回りには常に偶然に作曲された音楽が溢れていると考えていました。
そして、その偶然のオーケストラに自分も参加し、自分が音を足すことで全く別の聴き方が出来たり、自然の音が自分で演奏しているかのように感じられたり、無かった世界を生むことが出来ると考えていました。
作品のモチーフに水を選んだのは、年中雨や曇りの土地で育ったからなのか、昔から水の音や水っぽい場所に惹かれていて、何かを創作する際に水をモチーフにし続けてきたからです。
色々な年月、色々な場所で、その時間、その瞬間に偶然鳴った音。
ある瞬間に自分が鳴らした音、鳴らさなかった音など、自然と一緒に演奏をする醍醐味が作品内に詰まっています。
何度も何度も何度も通い尽くして録音出来た音や、たまたまそこに居たから録れた音など、1音1音とじっくりと向き合ってもらえるよう色々と趣向を凝らしました。
偶然と必然、作為と無作為なんかを意識しながら聴いてもらえたら良いなぁと思います。

"Lull" (2012) is a promotional dual-single by the American trio of sonic-alchemists called KILN.  Inspired by the music of Auburn Lull, these two pieces were constructed intermittently over a span of several years as an exercise in sonic revisualization—propelled by respect for the original works—and as a bridge to future KILN sounds.

Не слышу сердца частых я ударов,
А боль перетекает в страх слепой…
И было все – и ничего не стало.
Остались тишина лишь и покой…

We are proud to announce our last release of this year by øjeRum entitled "A Certain Grief"

"II" is taken from "A Certain Grief" which will be released December 19th.

All sounds were recorded at Paw Gabrowski's (øjeRum) his girlfriends parents house. They live remote in the country side and have a really old pump organ in the living room. It's a really old house and in winter they only heat up this room for special occasions. He recorded this two winters ago in freezing cold, with gloves on and candlelights. All background sounds are the actual sounds that were in the house while recording; the creaking chair, the crackling and pumping of the organ, the everyday noises of the family talking and working in the kitchen next door.

Sounds and artwork by Paw Gabrowski
