SUN RA: 1950 - 1960

New music from XT (saxophone player Seymour Wright and percussionist Paul Abbott) in the form of an exhilarating, super compressed, reflective re-assembling of a dozen years working together. Re-animating free improvisation with a Chicago house palette, Deorlaf X is made up of frenetic slabs of mutated multiphonics and triggered percussion, suspended in bouts of possessed reflexive quiet. 

Where the duo’s 2019 release Palina'tufa on Empty Editions focused primarily on a response to the real (and imagined) landscapes of Hong Kong, Deorlaf X is located in Dalston, and specifically at OTO. Wrung through Shaun Crook’s studio over three nights, the recordings dug from XT’s archive aren’t simply ‘duo’ - instead they actively draw on their public and social contexts, involving the influence of audience, engineers and other visiting musicians - Ghédalia Tazartès, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, Senyawa, RP Boo and others. “A changing cast of OTO guests, audience and emotions hosted each time in a new London. XT structures sound an ongoing attempt to listen and learn about the rich and transformative affordances of the situations we occupy.” 

The resulting record puts a pin through a dialogue between Abbott and Wright, between histories, potentials, fact, fiction, ideas, friends, audiences, and spaces. The heavy use of referencing recalls the footwork or house traditions of sampling across all manner of influences; what’s recalled is primarily the structures of jazz - Ornette Coleman, Charlie Parker, Anthony Braxton - but also Ann Quin, Clarice Lispector, Anna Halprin. What’s created in recall is a kind of diary, a hyper re-membering - a blisteringly warped kind of future music. 

Recorded by James Dunn, Shaun Crook and Paul Skinner. Assembled, mixed and re-recorded 19, 20 and 21 January, 2020 by XT at Lockdown Studio, Cable Street. Engineer Shaun Crook. Sounds/design by XT.

Nuevo podcast disponible con la actuación completa de Ivankovà, proyecto en solitario de la artista y compositora Irene de la Cueva, en la tercera edición de #LEVMatadero, en la que reinterpretó su último álbum Mogut’ Yun [Eternal Recordings, 2021] partiendo de la propuesta visual del artista multidiscilpinar Álvaro Choir. 
A través del mantra y la repetición en composiciones de largo desarrollo, nos invita a transitar por paisajes sonoros que encarnan su visión particular del espectro gótico y la fantasía neo medieval, en los que largos drones de órgano analógico, sintetizadores y etéreas composiciones vocales son protagonistas.

New podcast available with Ivankovà’s live show, solo project by artist and composer Irene de la Cueva, in the third edition of #LEVMatadero, where she reinterpreted her latest album 'Mogut ’Yun' [Eternal Recordings, 2021] taking as her starting point the visual proposal of multidisciplinary artist Álvaro Choir. 

Using mantra and repetition in long-developed compositions, she invites us to travel through soundscapes that embody her particular vision of the Gothic spectrum and neo-medieval fantasy, in which long analog organ drones, synthesizers and ethereal vocal compositions are the protagonists.

James Blackshaw - "Why Keep Still?"

2 Sundays ago, I began texting friends this:
“If u have a moment + if it inspires u, I’m putting together a collage of field recordings that friends are sending to upload as a place + space of sonic respite. 🖤 just a voice memo recording of ambience or instruments or anything 😊.”

It was a prompt inspired by this feeling to draw sound maps adjacent to our own mind maps connecting friends, peers + family. The need for new maps is growing for me + possibly everyone. Connecting interdependencies through sounds, moments, + people.

My hope, while u listen, is that this sound map points u to places + spaces that have helped me out w keeping my mind curious, traveling + connected. These are the local places (in NYC) I cherish + love. While u listen to New Maps, visit these local businesses + support them via their digital stores:

Commend (https://www.instagram.com/commendnyc/) is a space that is owned + operated by the label that releases my music, RVNG Intl. It’s near + dear to my heart! it's such a deep + unique space.

This is the first podcast for the serial "Sakura".

Sakura Vol I - Anthonius Dj Set

Recorded in 2013 by Brian Haran in Graham, North Carolina. A take on the traditional Celtic tune brought to my ears and many others by Fairport Convention. Photo by my sister, Elise Tyler.

Flowers of the Forest

Spanish artist Victor Herrero dusts the cobwebs off his old hard drives and rekindles himself with a series of unreleased solo recordings, self-recorded over 2015-2018. The cherry-picked selection of tracks offers an exquisite corpse of past moments in time, recollected and reordained to reflect the awkward present under covid-19 lockdown. In it, the strings of his nylon string guitar gently weave mellow melodic refrains in a rough and ready aesthetic. Little movements, laments and circling dances are given time and space to grow, allowing his songs to sing from the ground upward and seep into oneiric states.

Victor is a DIY troubadour, conjuring the ghosts of Spanish guitar maestros Francisco Tárrega and Fernando Sor and the haunting of times past. As we listen to this we can imagine him sitting on the edge of our sofa in dim candlelight, whisky in hand at 4am, with the sunrise slowly peeking its head above the horizon. A really special collection.

TR018 - Victor Herrero - 'Voz 002'

I talk with musician, occult scholar, and author, Phil Legard about evoking landscapes with magical music + the trouble with summoning demons.

AEWCH 118: PHIL LEGARD or LANDSCAPES OF MAGICK AND SOUND

Recorded off of Nashville AM radio station WNAH two weeks ago- usually the station plays a mix of christian talk, sermons, and hymns but this Saturday they switched to an easy listening format for a few hours. The static and noise are just part of the magic of AM : )
