PRISMS

This one is a bit fuzzy and happy. It's got a few twangly bits of guitars with the pulsing fuzzy psychedelic things and my voice layer up so it sounds like a choir. Not sure why I am describing it, you can probably hear it. I have an album coming soon called Stringland. It's just about finished but I'm making the art at the moment.

Title track from Leafcutter John's new album, Resurrection(Pathway009)

A panoramic sound world of drifting vocals over a densely-processed terrain of mud-caked percussion and guitar, Leafcutter John’s new solo album, Resurrection, is a characteristically unique blend of the electronic and the acoustic, the hi-tech, the human and the homemade.
Resurrection is the sixth Leafcutter John album and his first solo release since 2006’s The Forest and The Sea CD/LP(Staubgold). In the intervening nine years, John has toured from Vietnam to Venice, appeared live with Beck Hansen and Imogen Heap, and provided the score for Crow, a major theatre project by Handspring (creators of War Horse). 

During this time, John has also maintained his permanent role as the unpredictable, electronic antagonist in Polar Bear, the twice Mercury Music Prize-nominated, genre-defying jazz band.
This new record marks fifteen years of releases by Leafcutter John. Born John Burton in Wakefield (Yorkshire, England), his highly original musical voice was first spotted by Mike Paradinas, label boss of Planet Mu Records. Over the course of his first three albums (2000-2003), John established and developed his idiosyncratic London-based studio, and his skills as an inventor of unusual instruments and extraordinary music software.
Resurrection begins with the sound of a single bell, in homage to one of John’s major influences, Bernard Parmigiani’s De Natura Sonorum (1976). From there, the album unfolds over five cinematically varied tracks, “like floating above a world in constant flux,” in John’s own words. In fact, aerial photographs of the Japanese tsunami of 2011 were a direct inspiration for the record.
“I would create complete, fully-formed compositions,” says John, “then later, I’d come back to them, playing the part of
the destroyer, scraping and smearing away elements, weathering, piling up and re-ordering them, as if they’d been hit by a natural disaster.”
Not content with the usual tools available to the electronic musician, John has created innovative new systems and techniques for both live performance and production. This includes a light-controlled instrument that allows him manipulate his live sound through gesture, flickering candles, flashing torches and pyrotechnics. For the track “Gulps,” John coded special software to layer huge swathes of sound. Using a recursive system, he created 7.1 billion layers of a recording of the North Sea, one for each human alive on the planet at the time of writing.
Featuring a guest appearance by Shabaka Hutchings (Sons of Kemet), “Gulps” is a poignant demonstration of John’s
approach: Hutchings’ intimate clarinet is gradually engulfed by a (literal) ocean of sound. This is sculptural sound design
where technological innovation is always at the service of the emotional impact of the music: deeply human at its root, and
mind-expanding in its ambition.

DJ Koze - Das Wort feat. Dirk von Lowtzow

It is not many new artists that can claim to have had the likes of Richie Hawtin and Dubfire looking to sign their first ever EP, but that's exactly the situation that 22 year old Joran van Pol found himself in earlier this year. Needless to say both techno heavyweights were satisfied when the Dutchman delivered one each for both Minus and SCI+TEC.

So having already ignited 2013 with his ep for the German giants, van Pol looks to increase the heat with his SCI+TEC debut, the Implicit EP. The quartet of powerful, atmospheric and ultimately funky tracks further showcase the young producers exciting talent and impressively confirm 2013 as his breakthrough year.

01. "Implicit"
02. "T-1"
03. "Incomprehensible"
04. "Reach"

Release Date: 20-06-2013
