SOUNDCLOUD PLAYLISTS – #39 SOUTH AMERICAN ELECTRONIC / ELECTROACOUSTIC

Feminatronic has been putting together playlists for some time on different platforms. At first, I used the 8Track format but with the recent changes on that platform, I found that I couldn’t continue to put together the eclectic and wideranging playlists any more. Unfortunately, I had to close that account.

Over the past weeks I have been replicating and creating new playlists directly on Soundcloud. I post these each Monday on Twitter and Facebook, where they are pinned for the week. Here is this weeks playlist inspired by a message I received from the artist Alma Laprida, who provided me with a great list of South American electronic musicians. There is a rich heritage of electronic music creation in that part of the world and this is the first part of my exploration. More to come soon.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT – Imogen Heap

So in light of the review from Pondewaywayway, here are a couple of tracks from Imogen Heap

I’m going to be honest and say from the start that this review underwent a complete overhaul right at the last minute. Originally I tried to look at how fans and casual listeners would view Imogen Heap’s latest album but, as I am myself a diehard fan, that became too difficult. What I concluded in that draft was that, for the casual listener, the success of the album rests on how they deal with what is, really, a rather fractured listen. Imogen’s new protracted approach to making an album has resulted in a release that lacks the sonic or thematic cohesion that would usually draw the songs on an album together. If you’re a fan whose followed the run-up to Sparks though this probably won’t prove to be a stumbling block because you’ll know about the projects that accompanied most songs. As a soundtrack to Imogen’s adventures over the last…

REBLOG – Fractal Meat on a Spongy Bone with Ingrid Plum

I haven’t gone mad but posting this for two reasons. Firstly it links in with some items about Ingrid Plum and gives Fractal Meat a plug as it is a radio show that gives space and promotes experimental, noise and sound music being created today. Well worth visiting.

On Friday 18th September Ingrid Plum will join me in the studio to perform live and play some tracks from her forthcoming album, Plangent. Tune into NTS from 8-10am.

Using extended technique and improvisation, Plum combines her voice with field recordings and electronics to create layered soundscapes blending spoken word and song. Her recordings and live performance have the honesty and intimacy of a confessional alongside the sonic scope of the forests and open coastlines of her native Denmark, a landscape that inspires much of her music.
