A CLOSER LISTEN is honored to present the online premiere of Tamara Filyavich’s return fire.

Tamara Filyavich presents return fire, a soundscape of analogue synthesizer, radio transmission and digital manipulation channeling the events of the Ukrainian revolution of 2013-2014. Filyavich has lived in Montreal for the past 20 years, after she and her family left the town on Yalta in the occupied Ukraine.  return fire is a reflection on childhood memories filtered through contemporary political struggles for social justice and free expression on the streets. This piece also includes variations on the Ukrainian choral piece “Plyve Kacha,” an  old Ukrainian folk song which was given new meaning after being played on Kiev’s central square during the funeral for slain opposition fighters in 2014.

She works as Arts and Culture Coordinator at CKUT radio 90.3 fm, Montreal’s community radio station, where she also co-hosts Radio is Dead?, a show…

Mila is a mixed media based in Saint Petersburg in Russia. I first came across her work via this great website called Far From Moscow which is well worth checking out. Anyway, at that point she was writing music as diu pii and it was excellent bare bones almost tribal sketches of electronica goodness. I got in touch to ask if she wanted to do a split release on floppy disk, which fortunately for me, she did. One thing Mila does very well is often very chaotic and colourful works of art, I find these very appealing, she did the awesome artwork for our release and has since done the same for releases with Liminal Noise Tapes and Effluvia Recordings.

Anyway, I am very pleased to present her EP “resistance” released under her own…

REBLOG – Midori Takada ‎- Through The Looking Glass

Some of you will know how I’ve championed this album in the past and so I’m glad to be able to reblog this here : ))

Untitlef
Through The Looking Glass is an album by Midori Takada that was released in 1983 on the label RCA. This album is ambient.

This album has some of my favorite ambient tracks on it. Beautiful serene melodies, slow warm drones, birds, windchimes, spastic xylophone(?) loops, and so on. The album utilizes lots of traditional and non-electronic instruments which gives it an awesome sound. Lots of wood winds and various minimalist percussions creating beautiful ambiances perfect for laying in a field on some alien planet watching the clouds. Half of the tracks are more serene and some are more tribal, especially with the final track “Catastrophe Σ” which is tribal ambient (a subgenre that focuses on rhythmic drumming instead of melodies) . My favorite tracks are the first, Mr. Henri Rousseau’s Dream, and the third, Trompe-L’oeil; the more serene / calm / melody driven ones.

REVIEW REBLOG – SPACE GIRLS – say you’ll be jodido

Something challenging and expect the unexpected from Agnes Pe and Raisa Maudit.

Catchy, courageous, happy, outrageous and mentally intriguing, with a big hand pulling out rabbits from the mad hatters hat full of ideas; this is some fine crazy shit! It’s as if pop had taken a deep dive into a bathtub full of liquid speed, neatly absorbed through the poppy diva skin and now became fruitfully alive in all its finest insanity.

And you know what? It’s a perfect case of a production that puts the ‘super’ back in Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
There is singing, there is dancing and it’s adrenaline rush and worth the nervous breakdown of pure entertainment! Raw and spectacular! After this you’ll be glad to change your name into Jodido; so better start practicing, and tune in:

REVIEW REBLOG – Furchick – Cats in the bath (Dick Smith mix)

Finally catching up this New Year and this is a good place to start…

title: Cats in the bath ( Dick Smith mix)

label: Dog Park https://dogparkrecords.bandcamp.com

I don’t know about you but my New Years wish was to exchange the rubber ducks in the bath with real life cats. I managed to exchange them, but not fairly sure if it was a good idea to do so. In fact under the layer of soapy foam there is water with a reddish glow, a colored substance coming from all the cuts my new bathing cats palls have been giving me. Apparently they don’t really like bathing, or water to swim in in general; where are the rubber sucks when you need them the most?

1 hmm… in a swimming-pool?

But unexpected help was on its way to safe me from the angry bath-haters sharp nailed paws, as I stumbled upon a magical trick to make the cats (and myself) in a…

TODAYS DISCOVERY – Olga Wojciechowska – Maps And Mazes (Time Released Sound)

Headphone Commute has flagged this release a couple of times and every time the process of reblogging has failed me. Not this time. This is music that strikes a chord with it’s sheer beauty and would be on my Christmas list or Best Of… if I had one.

Read the review here –

[Maps And Mazes] is a stunning collection of electronically treated modern-classical beauties… somewhat dark and moody at times […] yet always elegant and absorbing…
