Argentinian but Barcelona-based, nueen has been crafting some very particular sound drifts through a luminescent and recurring warm atmosphere, endlessly fluidic and delicate pads, recombining rhythms where multiple temporalities are juxtaposed. 
Over the years, he has developed a highly personal style –profoundly intimate yet immediately giving onto distant space-times. His dub-ambient embroiled sound has been released on labels such as Good Morning Tapes, Quiet Time, Balmat and APPX. 
His mix released today as part of our series is a very good example of his versatility mixing tons & very different paths all together. Completely fan of this epizode!  Merci Nacho x

Absorb is proud to present ‘Thought Makes Music’, the highly anticipated long-player by gi, solo moniker of unbridled musician, performer, and lyricist Gigi De Lacy (Optic Nerve).

'Thought Makes Music' is gi’s farthest-reaching work, a conclusive vision that follows a succession of revered sketches and short-form releases on labels such as Altered States Tapes (AUS) and Beyond the Bridge (ROK). So far her work sits on the outer limits of what can be considered “dance music”, and at full-length, its singular and immersive quality is glaring. Here, gi’s familiar spacious sound design and metallic IDM percussion is refined by an intertidal palette and restrained songwriting parameters. Given a larger canvas, gi works with increasingly blurred, distorted and feedbacking sounds, enclosed by asynchronous rhythms, bent and then snapped back into grid; the album reveals its musicality in moments of overlap, where everything happens at once.

Across eight tracks, listeners find electronic music that is less concerned with narrative so much as with landscape. gi habitually uses a set of recurring samples, melodies and drums to create the murky atmosphere that permeates the record. Instances of repetition, like a re-used drum break across 'laces', 'coil' & 'rapture' reveal a practice that is constantly rearranging itself via generative drum programming and resampled modulation. This impulse for repetition snowballs into a prominent exploration into feedback on this release. From the warping harmonies on 'feedback'; screeching textures on 'rapture'; and the metronomic jolts of frequency on 'morning' and 'knots', we hear gi’s fascination with “failed” methods of capture, nodding to her history with DIY, punk and hardcore scenes in so-called Australia. Exploring “blown out” re-recorded musical qualities for the first time under the gi alias, we find overtures of amplified noise bleed into otherwise crisp arrangements.

Allowing discreet reference-points to blur, new tonal profiles and distorted intensities arise for gi. 'Thought Makes Music' draws connections with the world around it, following rolling moments of feeling. gi presents her debut confidently, but the sound remains curious, playful & protective of itself; it answers no questions.

Lime Lodge returns for another hour of textural aural experiments and vivid gestural ambience. 


Lime Lodge w/ Angelo Harmsworth (01/11/24)

@broshuda
Live recorded at @inbeatwin, Milano
Video: youtube.com/watch?v=kjl_ueUA3LY

"Cross-pollinating a wide textural range of influences, Broshuda´s music incorporates elements of sound art, electroacoustic techniques, chopped spoken word dissections and field recorded material, as well as more rhythmically oriented and noise-heavy excursions.

Though kaleidoscopically varied, the work is held together by a playful sense of experimentation and a willingness to explore new directions of sound through an experimental approach and the use of freeform production techniques to expand and further his already broad sonic palette."
