Notes on Tactile Frequenices

This mix is specifically designed to be listened through headphones. There are features of low sound volume and high dynamics in it, so I recommend enjoying the sounds in quiet surroundings.

I am overwhelmed by the creativity and talent of modern day ambient and experimental artists. The wealth of top-notch releases surfacing year after year from these particular fields is awe-inspiring. There are hours upon hours of superb modern music/sound design that could and should be featured in mixes like this, so it is very difficult to decide on a limit. I wanted to mainly include artists that I believe are lesser known, adding works from more established names only as a taste here and there. I also wanted to include some beat-driven tracks that showcase exquisite uses of sound design in a more easily approachable context.

Instead of making the mix a simple track after track gallery of sound art, I've taken the liberty of pressing my own sound design fingerprint here and there. There is slight surgery or manipulation of some kind performed on most of the tracks in the mix, in places where I felt it was beneficial for the overall quality or just to make transitions a bit more interesting. There are sections where I've completely merged two or more tracks with each other to produce a fresh emergent view, that I hope both fans and artists themselves will find exhilarating. Field recordings in this mix are all from Finland.

Le bois du dériveur Piitta gémit et craque dans le petit port de Makholma, m'appelant pour un duo... Synthétiseurs et percussions s'en mêlent, une créature marine sort sa lyre et dialogue avec ma guitare.
Blackbird is coming.

I will try to make these one hour sessions filled with beautiful music that is helpful and calming to listen to while we get through this extraordinarily hard time.

I have taken a slightly different approach on this one and it does feature some beats later in the mix, so feedback welcome on whether this one has the desired effect. It is also available as a 320 download.

JD Twitch - Tranquility Mix 2

Honored to welcome recent LA arrival John Jones to the series for Volume 47. He records music solo as Nerftoss / AV Moves / Calvin, and is involved in a collaborative project called Geo Rip. This mix served as an exercise for him to find a meeting point between sounds that initially sparked his interest in the genre of electronic music in the early 2000’s, and the stuff him, his friends, and contemporaries are making now. A sentiment to a past self through moods and melodic elements.

Композиции собранные для этого микса — сердце путешествий.
Звучание инструментов из этих композиций — декорации.
Смешанные тона и настроения рисуют новый пейзаж.
Закройте глаза и путешествуйте по пейзажам внутри себя.
Слушайте пейзажи, которые похожи на те места, в которых вы бы хотели сейчас оказаться.

***
Ani Klang is a producer and DJ raised in California, US, honed in New York (where she graduated from the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music), and until recently based in Berlin, who blasted the contemporary underground club scene with her tense and bursting compositions of experimental, hybrid electronic music. Packing her tracks with explosions of structured rhythmic outbursts as well as sudden, chaotic ruptures, Ani Klang already appeared with remarkable works on prominent labels such as Infinite Machine, Knightwerk, Tremors TV, SOFT, and on Hyperboloid records with the stunner Burn the Empire EP, previously presented at CTM Festival's 20th anniversary at Berghain in 2019.

Keen to showcasing elaborate sound design paired with massive kickdrums and stomping progressions, Ani fiercely manufactures tracks that are meant to ignite the crowd on the dancefloor but also convey messages. For example, her latest Burn the Empire EP is reportedly an empathic and "powerful statement piece seeking to disprove the pervasive belief that womxn and queer people are primarily working and creating music to "empower others"'. The reference here is against the average reaction by the male-dominated press which tends to label womxn-made art indiscriminately as an "outspoken feminist act", hence implying that all non-white-cis-male works should pertain to political ideas of emancipation if they are to be considered 'worthy' and meaningful, and therefore imposing once again their discriminatory/colonial view onto others.

Today, we're very glad to be hosting a mix by Ani Klang on our channels, available from the SoundCloud player at the top, intended to keep on with our tradition of XMAS special episodes to help you cope with the festivities - especially on this very difficult year. Taking around 40 minutes, Ani's selection is another testament to her amazing crossover of genres, from industrial techno to footwork, electro, bounce, down to a few xmas-themed gems that tap into Ani's open-mindedness and sense of irony she's been carrying since her first productions, well accompanied by the urge of set the dancefloor on fire with the hardest club anthems. Also, be sure to check out Ani's brand new merch designed by cover artist Symbois.wiki.
