Few people would guess that the Field Recording and Soundscape section of our site would also be its most timely and political. And yet, as this year’s selections indicate, the genre is far more than nature recordings. While these continue to have their place, they also hint at much larger stories: climate change, disappearing environments, […]
via ACL 2016: Top Ten Field Recording & Soundscape — a closer listen
I’m not a great lover of end of year lists but I’m reblogging this one as it contains some of my favourite field recording discoveries of this year, all via ACL.
As soon as Fight Your Own War was announced, a ripple ran through the loose confederacy of friends, contacts, label heads, and performers that make up the noise “scene.” For performers and fans of power electronics, a book focused almost exclusively on the genre can be seen as a nod towards recognition of influence for […]
Occasionally, I put finger to keyboard and write a few words to let you all know that I am not a robot.
I am about to take down my artist pages, only temporarily until the new year, so I can update them, add artists and try to keep up with all the women who create electronic music that I have come across. It proves to me that there are “many many women” out there and it’s growing all the time, which is great.
In the meantime, there are some wonderful resources and lists which I am going to post here and elsewhere, so over Christmas if you want some reading or listening….

Cannot underestimate the importance of Pauline Oliveros as an artist, mentor and human being. She seemed to touch so many people’s lives and was, but will continue to be a titan in the pantheon of electronic pioneers.

via Fractal Meat: Mary Stark — We need no swords
“Graham Dunning’s Fractal Meat on a Spongy Bone radio show is a constant inspiration in its tireless exhumation of new exploratory music and sound art. December 2016 marks the show’s fifth birthday and to celebrate Dunning has made all the music from his associated Fractal Meat label free to download for the rest of the year.“

Teresa Rampazzi – Atmen Noch (1980)
A younger generation active in the southern Japanese city of Fukuoka is ushering in a new wave of 8-bit music.
via The New Faces of Japanese Chiptune — Bandcamp Daily
Some time ago I was introduced by YIKIS to Akane Hosaka who creates beautiful miniature loops using chiptune tech and over the past year I have heard more of this huge phenomena in electronic music creation. This is a great overview of the rise of Chiptune music, which has never gone away for me, as I’m a Game lover….
Teresa Rampazzi website has finally a new page containing a list of articles, books, and other material dedicated to this awesome pioneer pf electroacoustic music: http://www.teresarampazzi.it/writings-on-t-rampazzi/) I contributed with many writings to this emerging literature, since my Master thesis in 2000, and I’m proud of this. The first text dedicated to her dates back to 1979, with an […]
