Reblog – The Space Lady – greatest hits

You can never have enough of The Space Lady : )

 

kainobuko's avatarYeah I Know It Sucks

Artist: The Space Lady
Title: greatest hits
Keywords: pop, electronic, synthesizer

I know… I know.. and I’m even fully aware of already having discussed this lovely album over here, but sometimes it’s nice to have it ripen in the back of my head and return to it like a fine wine that has stood through the seasons to make all the flavors pop out for the best. When I first heard it I was just fully flabbergasted and surprised about its discovery through a good friend (graham Boosey) who had seen this lady perform in concert. I was fully blown away by just hearing this album so imagine how blown away his enthusiasm was, but now with the time passing gracefully and the music flourishing like a flower over time in my own memory storage system, I thought reviewing it for a second time was a nice little thing to…

Reblog – Furchick – Live on Blurred and Obscured with Jonathan Herweg, 8/23/2015

Artist: Furchick
title: Live on Blurred and Obscured with Jonathan Herweg, 8/23/2015
keywords: noise, experimental

Furchick’s live performance as situated and safely tucked away on the Freemusicarchive is a feast for the headphone wearing lot that needs something to slide down through their ears easily but risky. It’s not going to be soft and will possibly mark its territory in your tissue as it cuts through time, but see it as a beautiful tattoo that you could proudly show off to all the other sounds or music pieces that might fall down your ear holes. Furchick applies her wizardry in a way that the combination of mystery, pleasure and perhaps even slight pain is coming at you in such an adventurous way, that experiencing it feels like spending sufficient time in a piercing shop that you haven’t visited before & the overcoming of pure excitement that overrules the possible action…

Listening to…

“Components of local experimental beats and a wide gamut of electronic music draw from Taiwan’s irregular view / architectures and buildings, muggy, emissions-filled air, and hectic streetscapes, while Mandarin Chinese and Japanese influences marry intricate beats and whispering lyrics. All these tiny elements serve as pondering-points on the darkness that underpins the most intense emotions of the city’s aggregations.”

Reblog – Meuko! Meuko! ~ 鬼島 Ghost Island — A Closer Listen

Quote

A fast and fierce story accompanies this intriguing EP by Taiwanese artist Meuko! Meuko! It tells of a dream in which the narrator finds herself a part of a small gang of scavenger children in a Blade Runner landscape of a city seemingly too old to represent the future. The music is industrial both in […]

Reblog – Lunisolar by Mayuko Hino

There’s so much going on , too much for one person to keep up so looking through the Toneshift site I stumbled on this gem. Better late than never : )

From UK-based Cold Spring Records comes the new release by Mayuko Hino (from the band CCCC) titled Lunisolar. It’s two lengthy tracks starting with the crusty drone vs. monastery bells on Fantainhead. It’s like an open circuit mixed with heavy rough winds, a low-fi reverberating buzz and a centering tone of a gong-like bell. 日野繭子 makes no bones about her wide-ranging noisician flexability here, nor her honored place in the contemporary Japanoise scene. After all, she’s been actively at it since the early 90s, even though this is only her second solo record. Unlike a bevy of artists who just make ear-splitting sonic somersaults, Hino’s sound is more impressionistic and staggered in its delivery, incorporating a yin/yang of the industrial and environmental.

The severe blast of wired drones sound like a giant firehose battling a blaze in the final minutes of track one. The half-stops and firestarts are…

Today’s ambience. Nothing can be added to this comment –

“weightless, blissful, but also flightless – always connected to the body whose aurality must be blocked to survive its seduction. This tender voice calls from far away yet from a place we all know, stretched on filaments strung through clouds of condensation, the clinking jigsaw of melting ice, soft flows of breath and dawn mists that speak through water insects and dreaming.” ––David Toop
