Artist: Jonathan Scherk & Daniel Majer
Album: It's Counterpart
Label#: Faitiche19
Format: LP/DL

Faitiche is delighted to welcome two young artists from Canada: Jonathan Scherk and Daniel Majer hail from the post-rock and experimental scene in Vancouver, where they shared a studio for several years. In artistic terms, too, there is a surprising coherence: on It’s Counterpart, their solo work naturally blends to create a joint album, making it hard to distinguish between their contributions. Majer describes his part as a shadow-like reflection to Scherk’s brightly meandering collages. The album’s title refers to this: It's Counterpart presents two solo artists who have met their match in one another.

Scherk and Majer produce contemporary sound collages on samplers, laptops etc. using raw material drawn from YouTube videos, field recordings, cassettes, and LPs from the dollar bin – the kind of rightly forgotten obscurities that have long since lost their audience, if they ever had one. In the hands of Scherk and Majer, they become abstract sound objects. The two artists don't concern themselves with the material's original context – the sound's character is most important. This sets them apart from other collage artists. Their work might be called a contemporary upgrade of the classic tape collage: here, channelling a wealth of information is the main focus. So are these collages that trigger neither associations nor contexts? Au contraire! It’s Counterpart is like an overheated centrifuge whose spinning extracts and joins together all of the harmonies ever pressed on vinyl. Melodies run amok.

The prolific Kink Gong (aka Laurent Jeanneau) returns in a unique duet with one of the most prominent artists of the Chinese avantgardist scene Li Daiguo. Kink Gong and Li Daiguo first met in Chengdu (capital of Sichuan Province, China) while playing the same night at the Jahbar music venue. 

A few months later, as they become neighbors in Cai Cun, a village near the old town of Dali (Yunnan), Kink Gong begins recording Daiguo playing Pipa, Cello and Zheng. He then proceeded to deconstruct these recordings while adding voices that he mainly recorded in Yunnan Province. This fantastic combination of field recordings, experimental folk melodies and electronic treatment leads us to a fourth underground universe reminiscent of Jon Hassell's finest hours. 

Credits:
- Pipa, Cello, Zheng performed by LI DAIGUO and recorded by LAURENT JEANNEAU in Cai Cun Dali, Yunnan, China on 11/11/2011
- Voices recorded by LAURENT JEANNEAU in China and Laos 2006-2013.

Audio works developed as part of Water Bodies exhibition, Catalyst Arts Belfast, August 6th - September 5th 2020.

The sound work for Water Bodies comprises of two main spatialized audio tracks, playing across the exhibition space.  

One of these audio works comprises of manipulated vocal recordings, positioned above the water pools in the exhibition space. These vocal recordings comprise of organised notes on conversations held between the artists over the a series of online calls.  

The other audio work played across the room through two large monitors was composed using various instruments, relating to both body and water. Recordings of wine glasses, each holding different volumes of water, are woven together along with the sounds of pouring water between the glasses. Blowing across bottles of water creates the sound of distant fog horns in the second half of the composition. The piece ends with a series of vocal harmonies, which emerge and disappear in waves, anchored by the comforting whirring of a faraway de-humidifier.  Harmony and unison collapsing and ascending.. Moments of comfort and discomfort.. Of seeking and finding.
