january 2009 release ; intriguing bit of static-leaning (read: non-pulse oriented) music from carsten nicolai, based around “american” themes (“made in america” as they say) & including source material(s) from michael nyman (?!) & sunn o)))’s stephen o’malley ...

takes range from spectral-processed blurs to the sort(s) of bi-directionally looped “ambient” patternage of wolfgang voigt’s gas project & even the synth-brass fanfares of “blade runner”-era vangelis (quite serious ; listen to the sound-sample) ...

alva noto. xerrox vol.2

“xerrox vol. 2 undertakes an intense journey and affords the luxury to take its time.“ while xerrox vol. 1 (r-n 78) referred to the ‘old world’ with its tradition deeply rooted in classical music, xerrox vol. 2 tries to access a ‘new world’. it works with samples that have been gathered and developed in the usa – the so-called ‘new world’ – where the album also has almost completely been recorded.

the dramatic and dynamic approach of xerrox vol. 1 on vol. 2 has been replaced by a structural density. instead of working with individual musical entities the new album rather develops an overall, linear aesthetic that refers to musical strategies of film music. hence there are no implicitly singular pieces, but open musical structures – a journey without a predetermined target.

the first four tracks of xerrox vol. 2 actually condense to one track, using samples of michael nyman and stephen o’malley. they kind of combine to a soundtrack as for a movie before fading away in a swell of reverb feedback. xerrox sora is a rudiment from the collaboration with ryuichi sakamoto, which originates from and has been performed as encore during the 2004 insen tour. continuing from xerrox monophaser 2, the album creates a dense and interweaved complexity, which only gradually unfolds its depth. while xerrox teion dissolves in the process of copying into another sample rate (xerrowed), xerrox teion acat again tends to re-condense its quality.

xerrox vol. 2 seems to be more playful than vol. 1; following the approach of a live set it is not so much obligated to a theoretical concept. therefore it intends to break a static framework before it gets too restricted. the eleven tracks of xerrox vol. 2 serve as documents of an immediately experienced time or as attempts to unfold in an endless space. in this sense xerrox vol. 2 comes close to the idea of the aleph-1 project that tried to disappear rather than occupy an endless space.

in the end one might ask where the journey will go. will the next albums in the series – xerrox vol. 3-5 – again commit to the idea of atomisation of sound or condense in monolithic structures? this only time can tell.

ltmcd 2479
various artists | from brussels with love

the very first cd release of the classic 1980 compilation album from brussels with love, which was also the debut release from chic belgian indie label les disques du crepuscule (twi 007). originally released as a deluxe cassette/book package in november 1980 it featured 20 exclusive tracks from the international avant garde and new wave, as well as the celebrated factory records roster. then, as now, the contributing artists include gavin bryars, harold budd, dome, the durutti column, john foxx, martin hannett, richard jobson, bill nelson, new order and michael nyman. the programme also includes extended interviews with brian eno and iconic french actress jeanne moreau.

the cd has been digitally remastered from the original master tapes, and features 75 minutes of material. most of the tracks featured here remain unavailable elsewhere. for reasons of space just one has been deleted from the original cassette (a certain ratio), although this track is available on ltmcd 2443.

the 20-pages facsimile booklet features original artwork by benoît hennebert, claude stassart and jean-françois octave, as well as archive images and detailed liner notes.
