as always, taâlem wishes to thank all the artists involved for their generosity, patience, trust and support during all these years.
and of course big thanks to our ever loyal customers too! we couldn't go on without you.

Forwind kicks 2016 off with three powerful new EP’s by Tokyo's Tomonari Nozaki. The first instalment 'Credence' is Tomonari's first new material on the label since his hugely well received debut 'North Palace' in 2013.

The new compositions see Tomonari experimenting with even denser layers of sound, morphing acoustics and chugging industrial rhythms, all while keeping his distinctive and much loved tape recorded sonics hissing and gestating away.

August Søren - Come Back Into The Light

Game Of Thrones Season 6 Soudtrack - Light Of The Seven S06E10

I'm guessing all this sad, depressing music is getting annoying. Hopefully soon enough you won't have to hear it anymore.

I'm really sorry for all the worrying signals I must be giving off. My intention isn't for anyone to worry, these songs and descriptions aren't even a sort of cry for help. I just feel like I'm going crazy inside because I don't really talk about it, so this is just my way of venting. I'm not good with being vocal, I'm too scared to do anything with my actual voice, so I believe I've lost it over the years. This, to me, is the best substitute I have for a voice.

To all the people who's comments I deleted, I'm so sorry, I hate the idea of deleting comments people took time to make, especially since they were all so thoughtful and supportive. I'm just scared that too many people will know the specifics of what's happening (which is also why I deleted most of the original description along with a bunch of other descriptions).

I'm sorry for all the depressing music (more depressing than usual) I've been releasing. I tried lightening it up a little bit with You and I'll try releasing more songs like that (tonally). I'm just going through my own personal hell and I'm fucking tired. It's not even so much that I'm tired of hell, or not being happy...I've given up on those things a little while ago, maybe a year or two ago, I'm just tired of hoping things get better, tired of my useless, childish optimism only for things to get worse. Things only go downhill from here.

Well, I guess that's the end of my little rant. To end things on a happier note; I love you all, so so so so so very much. You haven't been "fans", you haven't been "listeners", no, you've all been friends. I honestly can never thank you all enough for what you've done for me, from making this whole Solace thing possible, to cheering me up on my worst days. You all deserve more love than I could ever hope to give you <3

After last year's sophomore release, The Faex Has Decimated, on Tympanik Audio, the Legiac project is back, but this time on the Russian based Dronarivm label, where the new album feels more at home. This time, the electronic duo of Roel Funcken and Cor Bolten take on a more meditative approach to their mildly glitch-infused, modular explored sounds, weaving in ambient textures, field recordings, and vast soundscapes. Titled after an early 15th century hand-written and illustrated codex, named after Wilfrid Voynich, the mysteries within this cryptic album can only be unlocked upon subsequent rotations, offering it up as a soundtrack to an enigmatic place, existing somewhere within imagination of these two prolific artists. The Voynich Manuscript slowly transforms its listener from a seemingly ordinary habitat, to a day-dream haze, to kaleidoscopic illusion - a sonic environment you thirst to visit once again...

Stations w/ akito misaki

A stream runs through a forest on a rainy day. The rain sounds and water sounds combine to create a relaxing ambience. Perfect for helping you sleep, focus, study or relax after a long day.

Let the nature white noise calm your mind and block out the distractions of the world. This sound masking helps with falling asleep and remaining sleeping all night long. By masking out distracting noise, the rain sound also helps you maintain focus as you work, study, read, write essays, do homework, SAT prep or any other task that requires concentration.

The stream was filmed in Washington State on the trail to Sol Duc Falls in Olympic National Park: https://www.nps.gov/olym/index.htm

SANTA SANGRE
http://santasangremagazine.wordpress.com/2013/06/23/tomonari-nozaki-une-histoire-de-blue-englishpolish/
ENG: In any film, you’ll come across one or perhaps two moments where the director’s vision burns right out of the celluloid and into your mind. Depending on how effective the said director is at integrating those beats into the rest of the proceedings will determine how good of a production you’re watching. These fleeting, frozen frames are elusive at the very best and illusory at worst. Tomonari Nozaki has, with his album, made the auditory equivalent of a movie that is nothing but those intensely smoldering cinematic yearnings. Each second is an expansive, intuitive descent into what makes our blood curdle, boil and run cold all at once.
Une Histoire de Blue is a profoundly sad, forlorn piece of work. Each chapter a series of regrets, every thunderous wave which breaks upon your ears is a lamentation. What once was, what could have been, where things stand now, the one who never requited what was given them. I hear this kind of artistry rarely in my line of work, it is all too easy to just thrown down a couple layers of formless drone then tinker in a few random noises and call it good. But this release here contains fully-formed, extremely articulate compositions where the field recordings flow imperceptibly into what Nozaki has channeled out of his machinery
Loss is the main arena Nozaki is working within, all of his sounds and structures contain a slowly decaying core; the soundtrack of a satellite descending out of orbit with the lifeless, inert crew forever frozen in place at their stations. Watching. Waiting. Wailing. I cannot help but come away from hearing this with a very heavy heart. The tantalized memories of one person’s understanding of what the color blue can mean. Is this in reference to the film? I could not tell you but the sense of cataclysm and sudden rupture from life are undeniable. We may have both a meditation on all the different meanings of what it is to exist in this realm and also an alternate score to a movie which was easily the strongest act to a three film epic that resonates to this day.
No matter, however, let us return to what Mr. Nozaki has given us. It is described as an excursion into the sublime, which is pretty close to the mark. There are much much more than simple synonymic anagrams going on within these four chapters (the four stages of life? the four cycles of civilization? the four seasons on the calendar?)I’ll leave that with the listeners fortunate enough to hear this… for me they are four exquisitely designed, shape-shifting takes on the very nature of reality. Everything is transitory, this will give you something to hold on to.

PL: W każdym filmie natrafić można na jeden albo dwa momenty, kiedy wizja reżysera przepływa z taśmy celuloidowej wprost do naszego umysłu. Umiejętność reżysera scalania tych ulotnych fragmentów z resztą filmu determinuje jak dobra jest produkcja, którą właśnie oglądasz. Te zwiewne, zatrzymane klatki filmowe w najlepszym przypadku bywają nieuchwytne, w najgorszym iluzoryczne. Płyta Tomonari Nozakiego to dźwiękowy ekwiwalent filmu, właśnie takiej intensywnie się tlącej kinowej tęsknoty. Każda sekunda to ekspansywne, lecz również intuicyjne zejście w stronę tego czegoś, co sprawia, że nasza krew się ścina, gotuje i zamarza jednocześnie.
Une Histoire de Blue to głęboko smutne, rozpaczliwe wręcz dzieło. Każdy rozdział to seria rozczarowań, każda grzmiąca fala, która przetacza się przez uszy jest w istocie lamentem. Co było kiedyś, co mogło być, na czym teraz stoję, co nie zostało oddane. Rzadko słucham tego rodzaju artystycznej ekspresji, bo to zbyt łatwe, wrzucić kilka warstw bezkształtnych dronów, pomajstrować potem przy nich przypadkowymi hałasami i uznać, że to jest dobre. Ale to wydawnictwo zawiera w pełni ukształtowane, konkretnie wyrażone kompozycje, w których nagrania terenowe niepostrzeżenie wplywają w to, co Nozaki wyciąga ze swojej maszynerii.
Przegrana jest areną, na której operuje Nozaki, wszystkie jego dźwięki i struktury zawierają powoli rozkładający się rdzeń; soundtrack dla satelity zstępującej z orbity, z martwą, bezwładną załogą na zawsze zamrożoną w miejscu jej stacjonowania. Obserwując. Czekając. Łkając. Słucham tego z ciężkim sercem i nic nie mogę na to poradzić. To dręczące wspomnienie prób zrozumienia przez pewną osobę jakie jest znaczenie koloru niebieskiego. Czy to odniesienie do filmu? Tego wam nie powiem, ale poczucie swego rodzaju kataklizmu, nagłego przerwania linii życia jest tu niezaprzeczalne. Możemy tę płytę traktować zarówno jako medytację nad tym jak egzystować w tym królestwie, jak i alternatywną ścieżką dźwiękową do pewnego filmu będącego najmocniejszym punktem pewnej epickiej trylogii, która oglądana jest i dyskutowana do dnia dzisiejszego.
Nieważne, wróćmy do tego, co podarował nam pan Nozaki. Określono to jako podróż w wysublimowane, co generalnie jest dość bliskie prawdy. W tych czterech rozdziałach dzieje się o wiele więcej, niż może się wydawać (cztery etapy życia? cztery cykle cywilizacji? cztery pory roku?). Zostawiam to słuchaczom, którzy będą mieli szczęście zapoznać się z tą muzyką… dla mnie to cztery wspaniale zaprojektowane, zmieniające kształt ujęcia jądra natury rzeczywistości. Wszystko przemija, ale dzięki tej muzyce będziecie mieli się czego trzymać.

Vital Weekly 888

According to the website of Invisible Birds, “mr. nozaki has beginnings in minimal techno and experimental music, and after a slight pause from music, has returned in 2012 with some transcendental experimentations into the rarely visited places of “liminality” and “the sublime”.” I am not sure, but this might be my first encounter with his music. The music here is announced as
“abstract sound projections & melodies using destruction techniques discovered with reel to reel tape-loop splicings and other analogue romanticisms”, which is actually not far from the truth. Not the reel to reel thing, as that is not easy to check upon, but the romantic aspect of the music. I was thinking there is some classical music on those tapes, as a kind of residue (maybe he got the ones from dear departed father?), which he loops around and by adding sound effects makes them a bit more alienated. It reminds me of Jorge Mantis’ The Beautiful Schizophonic with its looped classical music from the 19th century – the romantic era in that music. Occasionally there is a hiccup which I couldn’t figure to be a glitch in the tape, the stretching of samples (so, maybe it includes computers?), or the burning to CDR? These four long and one short pieces work very fine on a grey day: stretched out fields of sounds, passing like slow clouds in the sky, with the occasional crackle being the summer rain drop. Dark but full of hope and light.
Music by Thomas Bel has found its way to here before – see Vital Weekly 663 – when I thought he hadn’t found his own voice yet. Now, a few years later, I hear something new from him, a work that was originally recorded live June 21st 2011 – which is actually exactly two years ago from the day this was written – but ‘re-arranged and edited’ in May of this year. It’s one long piece, of thirty-three minutes and thirty-three seconds, and it sounds like an outdoor concert: rain is pouring down (no doubt on tape and not live), while Bel plays his guitar in a very minimal way. I never know – not being a guitarist myself – if this actually played, or one of those loop devices, but it’s surely very minimal with a bunch of small changes. As the piece evolves there is the addition of some feedback like sounds, and the guitar – now indeed looped – doubles and triples. Blues music? Yes, it could be. It has that dark, laidback Americana blues feeling of desperation and solitude, even when it’s brought to a mighty crescendo in which all air is sucked into the sound effects before its escape towards the end. A fine good solid piece, as dark perhaps as the Nozaki one, but with less light and more despair. In both cases: if you like Machinefabriek or William Basinski, then this is surely worth checking out. (FdW)

[Aquarius records product review]
Invisible Birds introduces us to another exceptional composer through their ongoing series of limited edition hand-fabricated cd-rs, where we had been previously graced by the langous tones of Arthur De Eriomem and got a brilliant full length out of Thomas Bel. Here, the imprint offers us an album from the Japanese ambient composer Tomonari Nozaki who started out in the techno scene, but grew fascinated with the purely analogue forms of tape loops and and synthesizers. A sense of rhythm and timing is definitely at play in his work, alluding to the beatless Pop Ambient sensibility that Wolfgang Voigt inspired through his classic Gas albums; but the placid, cinematic grandeur of Nozaki's sources harken more to The Caretaker and William Basinski's emotionally laden scores of forgotten dreams. The four lengthy tracks could endlessly cycle through their maudlin melodies that are stretched and swept as if carried away the currents of a cold, gray ocean. Like Basinski, Nozaki is not averse to including the dusty crackle, ferric drop-outs, and tape machined errors in with his composition. They do come across with a greater deal of randomness than on the aggregated decomposition of Basinski's Disintegration Loops; but all of the wooziness and gauzy ambience makes for a beautifully spellbinding listen. Limited to 100 copies.

http://igloomag.com/reviews/tomonari-nozaki-une-histoire-de-bleu-invisible-birds

Prefacing the four, quarter-hour “chapters” of Tomonari Nozaki’s Une histoire de bleu are one hundred and sixty four seconds of ocean waves lapping at an empty beach. Or it could be the never-ending storm on top of Saturn. And it could be made out of surging static electricity. Either way, it is an irenic head-clearer with which to allow his story of blue to unfold. Its description as “abstract sound projections and melodies using destruction techniques discovered with reel to reel tape-loop splicings and other analogue Romanticisms” immediately calls (or shouts) to mind the work of William Basinski and his disintegration loops, and there certainly is shared ground in reaching for the sublime through retrogression.

Like Basinski, Nozaki succeeds magnificently, though without having his tapes dandruff into obscurity in the making, even though they do occasionally and artfully fail. The first chapter of Une histoire de bleu has that classic, far-away Brian Eno sway, while the second is ghostly and desolate as Rapoon. The third chapter has an orchestra sweep, a deep pathos, a cozy autumnal sadness. It is reminiscent of one of the rolling, pastoral landscapes of Andrew Deutsch’s Loops Over Land, just as it leans toward Samuel Barber’s “Adagio for Strings.” “Chapter Four” recalls Basinski with the greatest clarity, graceful and ever falling, ever falling.

"une histoire de bleu"excerpt/tomonari nozaki(invisible birds/oiseaux003)

I’ve made a little ambient mix of some of my all time favourite peaceful music.

The mix was originally made for a clinical trial for people undergoing something of a reconstructive therapy. It was designed to repeatedly and slowly transition between relaxed reflection, and stimulation of new thoughts, running for a 2 hrs 30 mins session. You’ll probably hear what I mean in the structure.

It also includes some unreleased music of mine which hasn’t been heard before, alongside many of the most beautiful pieces I could find. I hope you enjoy it.
