Ioseb

June 19th, 2013 / 3 Comments » / by pdresseachea

PRESS RELEASE:

[ The Ghost Of 33 ]. Along the highway, somewhere inbetween, maybe even after the highcoast of Norrland, a late summersday in the beginning of a descending decenium, we stumbled upon a old white church, scared and teared on the frontage by the seasons. Close to the sparsely-populated area of Bygdsiljum, where we decided to take a break, stretch our legs after hours driving in a stuffy rental car all morning.

Cafe Americana from a gasstation, some breadloaf, cigarets, Linus got him self some cigars, non branded. This concept was dead, or atleast moldened, we had this feeling in our guts that we had more to give then to face the stage with hollow material that we couldnt put our own beliefs into, we wanted to flip the coin, make something we believed in, and in that maybe face the fact that we would be alone on our journey.

Behind the church, we found this large pile of thrown goods (prodably from a flee market), mostly junk, cloths, old pictures, books, shoes and other things that has been passed away by time. And we stole this trunk from the house of God. Ioseb took its shape the spring after the situation with the trunk, as a try to translate the old fasade of that church, forgotten pictures, seldom read books, lost letters, old tales of folklore, pale paintings, the baltic sea and the harsh climate that haunts us when the summers gone, into music.

We now use this trunk as a case for our FX pedals. With a lack of vengeance, melancholy, anger and hope we bind together our music with great ambient atmospheres and beutifull harmonies in where the thin vocals embraces you as warm hands on a frosty december morning. Linus is gone, without a trace, we guess that he is in great britain somewhere, prodably? Johan replaced him recently, but we are still hangin in there, that is Daniel, Jimmy, Jonatan and Mattias. Uncertain of our goal but convinced that a lot of music will be made, music that we will remember, we will hopefully get our sympathy from out there somewhere. We will bring the trunk with us to heaven.. /Ioseb

< < < < < [ EDIT: 2013 Title [ Agartha ] Update ]. > > > > >

The Sudermannian DIY quartet proclaimed as “Ioseb” has in the modest way of fashion unveiled their second phonorecord “Agartha” for it’s inquisitive few. Sprung from the wide and ambient shapes of the debut “the ghost of ’33″ this natively sung sequel has to be seen as a gilt and intimate concentrate of it’s predecessor, by that cause it’s name “Agartha” relates to nothing else then the legendary city that is said to reside in the earth’s core, as a metaphore for the quartets enclosure to their own.

This 28 minute journey divided in six parts takes the listener on a refuge through misty soundwalls, obscure thoughts, fragile dynamics and obstinate rhytm’s, dark but yet enticing, intriguing and frightening. Questioning definitions through emotions, words through meanings, mathers, form’s and shape’s, belief and persuasion, fate and faith.

Cinchel

June 19th, 2013 / Comments Off / by Admin

Cinchel is a drone/ambient guitarist from Chicago. “Quiet Nights, Lonesome Woods” is his latest EP release. This particular one contains no guitars and some buried beats and enough low end drone to really shake your walls. Many of us will also find that “Quiet Nights, Lonesome Woods” works pretty damn well as headphone music and large room listening. The latest EP is where you would want to start but but all means work your way to gather the entire Cinchel catalog.

[ Diamond Is The Rough ]. The eponymous title track is not only the gateway to Diamond In The Rough, but its very morphogenetic core which happens to be embedded in-between a helix of aquatic fractals. Instead of launching with the expected fade-in phase of several seconds and balmy Drone layers, Diamond In The Rough starts in medias res, with a gorgeously bubbling echo-coated fluxion of a moist and profound arpeggio. Textures and tonality burst at the seams in the very first seconds already, and as the architecture is repeated and gets louder over its course, the intensity is charged as well. That this vesiculation is guitar-based is a given in Jason Shanley’s work.

The emerald feeling is soon interpolated with a sun-dappled luminosity of excitatory drones which tower securely above the melting pot. Their infinitesimally overdriven scratches and hazy physiognomy make them curiously present and diffusely untouchable. Soon enough, these layers begin to bubble and oscillate as well. Clinging chimes lead to snoring dragons, the arrangement becomes incredibly louring (or was that luring?) all of a sudden; abyssal bass creeks float through the labyrinthine vaults, a pompous aura of opaqueness reigns. However, since Diamond In The Rough is based on vignettes, this state, while still maintained and resurrected for a few moments, is accompanied by blazingly iridescent and melodious Rave bells which do not seem gelid rather than supercharged with a powerful nostalgia.

When this hypnotic segment wanes, the earthquake-evoking atmosphere is reintroduced, now with a greater impetus than before. Frosty bells gyrate around devastating explosions and rumbling cliffs. Diamond In The Rough, as it turns out, ends with a focus on the devastating roughness. Its progression, the various textures, reverberations, filters and melodies are, in short, an utter delight, a sublime bedlam. [ FULL REVIEW ]

[ Sometime You See Yourself ( Through The Cosmos ) ]. Cinchel’s hour long sojourn into a land where singing wine glasses and treated guitars form peaks and valleys that rival the pulses of dying stars and slowly imploding planets tens of millions of light years away. All heard through an echo chamber that could wrap around the world one thousand times over.

[ Isolation Experiment Vol. I ]. Track one is a composite recording from WNUR own mix and my edirol r-09 that I set on the table next to me while I performed in their studio. The remaining tracks are isolation mixes of what I captured on the laptop during the live set. in the studio the laptop was amplified on through the Vox (top amp in photo). I dont think it did a great job of what was going on so I’ve gone back and made a few tracks using only these loops. Some minor editing and mixing was done in post.

Vuurwerk – ME+ONE

June 19th, 2013 / Comments Off / by Admin

WORLDWIDE RELEASE DATE: APRIL 2013

Brussels based producers outfit & mystery crew Run Tell Secrecy, a.k.a. VUURWERK, teamed up with Dandelion Lotus label for the official release of their debut LP: [ ME+ONE ]. Fueled by a delicately rare DIY IDM esthetic, ME+ONE holds the distillated drops from the VUURWERK EPs made somewhere in the darkest times between September 2011 and January 2013. Creating a dissonance between dance music and intimacy, VUURWERK aims to drench the club experience in a comfortable haze.

Set and Setting

June 19th, 2013 / Comments Off / by pdresseachea

Since 2008, [ Set and Setting ] have been described and categorized as many different things. With a wide range of influences from [ Pink Floyd ] to [ Godspeed You! Black Emperor ] to [ Pelican ] and [ Mono ] a wide range of sounds are combined into one unique blend described on the Tampa community Radio station as “of operatic proportions, epic tragedies told through music alone”.

With a full length in the midst of the creation process, the plan for 2012 is an LP among a seven inch or two. After captivating a strong local following with many shows in the Tampa Bay area with bands like the [ Appleseed Cast ] ~ [ Wolves In The Throne Room ] and music festivals Tropical Heatwave, and Antiwarpt the time to take the music elsewhere is now.

PUMBA

June 18th, 2013 / Comments Off / by Admin

Hi how are you. Pumba is a three-piece band, and we’re from Southern New Jersey, and from Philadelphia. It’s post-rock, or noise-rock, I think, and it’s very loud sometimes and very fun to play. We sometimes sweat when we play, when it’s hot. I play guitar and Dan plays guitar and we both stomp on pedals and twist knobs, and Phil plays drums. We went to Ridgewood, Queens and recorded an EP, live, with Sam Owens from a terrific band called Celestial Shore. It sounds really good, it sounds like it was made by adults, which is nice, and strange, because we’re all graduating from high school next week.

It’s called ‘Keeping Dogs in Houses’ and it’s the warm guts of us so far so have a gander if you’d like. Even though a lot of the tried-and-true post-rock tropes are certainly there (the cavernous build-up on “Cool Tombs”, the searing tremolo picking on “Ice Cream Rat”, etc), Pumba sounds like a band embarrassed of its self-serious label, dressing itself in slinky scrapes of no-wave guitar interplay, dance-beats and blown-out sonics to hide its sulky shoulders…

It isn’t the flashiest brand of post-rock on the block (we’ve so far forgone strings or disembodied vocal samples or what have you, because those things are all kind of hard to fit into the sweaty little North Philadelphia basements where we like to play music in front of people). Hark if you want to: there’s also a really, really pretty film of us playing in one of said basements!!
