DreamScenes 2016 – 12
DreamScenes usually only features new releases, but this month I want to start with an exception in remembrance of Pauline Oliveros.
Among many other things, she will be remembered for her Deep Listening concept.
Concluding this edition with a track by Mario Batkoviç that feels like a (probably unintended) tribute to Oliveros.
In-between, there’s many other things (… and also many strings).
Loscil * Library Tapes * Aaron Martin/Leonardo Rosado
New Loscil album “Monument Builders”; Library Tapes’ soundtrack for a movie about social and economic change, and Leonardo Rosado & Aaron Martin’s latest album celebrating the dead of night (when everything is asleep)
Resina * Tamar Halperin * Murcof/Wagner
From the contemporary post-classical debut of Resina to Tamar Halperin’s re-interpretations of classic Satie, via a remarkable collaboration of Murcof and Vanessa Wagner
Sonmi451 * Machinefabriek /+ Banabila * Legiac
More experimental music from the Lowlands: new albums by Sonmi451, Legiac, Machinefabriek & Michel Banabila and some more Machinefabriek this time with Anne Bakker & Edith Karkoscha
Jóhann Jóhannsson * Sven Helbig
A detour into contemporary classical music with two albums that perfectly match: Jóhann Jóhannsson‘s ‘Orphée’ and Sven Helbig‘s ‘I Eat The Sun And Drink The Rain’.
OfftheSky * Tobias Hellkvist * Rasalasad
Offthesky‘s latest is album is an appropriate celebration of his 50th release
*
Tobias Hellkvist‘s short but striking Kaskelot EP is now re-released as a full album including additional make-over remixes
*
Thismorphia is a collection of ‘illbient wordcore’ collaborations of Rasalasad with artists like Jarboe, Merzbow, Von Magnet (amongst others)
Ferdinando Arnò (with Melanie De Biasio) * Delilah Gutman + Drawing Virtual Gardens * Otto Lindholm
Ferdinando Arnò presents a fascinating soundtrack (featuring Melanie De Biasio) for the Radura installation in Milan, Drawing Virtual Gardens soundscapes are combined with with Delilah Gutman’s piano, and Otto Lindholm’s debut album presents subtle solo double bass soundscapes.
Ian William Craig * Serein (Various) * 130701 (Various)
Ian William Craig demonstrates that true beauty hides in distorted details on his ‘near-imperfect’ new album Centres – raising the bar of the aesthetic of the fundamentally distressed.
Furthermore:
Label compilations (by Serein and 130701) with all new unreleased tracks of their major artists.
