"Side A : percussive like an ongoing emergency. Side B : electrifying, from after the recomposition. A heavy atmosphere, a combative start. A fiery physicality emerges from each piece. Ripit progresses through a cluttered sky. Rough, thick raw material, a ceiling with pale lights passes at breakneck speed. A space roaring with sirens screaming. We are making good progress in the meanders of a troubled psyche, in the spiral of a bubbling world. Finally, the rhythms are reassuring; the noises and …

“Some of it sounds so pure and clear and I am picturing him huddled around all that gear, simply magical.

Tip! "With « A Bright Sun Shining Down Through All The Opaque & Toxic Layers Of The Underground », Tzii attempts a breakthrough in opacity. Close to emotional ambient, sometimes with slight touches of medieval trad («muxu» means kisses in Basque) and close to raw and mineral materials, Tzii rubs on airy atmospheres, in warm colors, looking for an altered state, almost gaseous. Muffled harmonies, melodious drone, reverb melodies, modulated distorted voices from elsewhere sounding like liberating …

2025 stock  In 1985 György Ligeti created six piano studies. The exceptionally new of these studies is the possibility of having one player generate the vision of several different simultaneous tempo layers.

The fourth study, 'Fanfares', is dedicated to Banfield. Olivier Messiaen's 'Vingt regards sur l'Enfant-Jésus', too, makes hug…

2025 stock When Pablo Casals rediscovered the cello suites of Bach at the beginning of the 20th century and firmly established them in the concert and record repertoire, the novel thing about it was that he played them "senza basso", i.e. without piano accompaniment - something that seemed quite unimaginable in the 19th century. In a time of music-historical over-maturity and experimentation, renowned composers soon came up with their own attempts, among them most famously Max Reger's "Solo Suit…

Colorblind…having a decreased ability to see color or differences in color. But…what if colorblind-ness becomes an intention? A conscious choice to not pin a colored distinction on ideas, people, music or life-philosophies? A clean palette of initial curiosity and acceptance, rather than a rigidity of prejudging (prejudice) and labeling. Why pretend to know before witnessing, before engaging, before allowing perception to focus?Doesn’t life ask us to enter, without tinting the supreme arts of kn…

There isn’t much known about Crystal Voyager & UFOm, the two musicians that created “Universe People.” We do know that it’s an album of deep ambience and weirdo sonic exploration; simultaneously harnessing lulling sounds and celestial vibrations alongside more visceral sonic encounters that exist somewhere else entirely.
