pixel. the drive

pixel’s album ‘the drive’ is meant to be the soundtrack to his imaginary journey by car across the u.s.a., a road movie encoded in the track list. with warm and deep guitar amplifier hiss and feedback in connection with floating rhythms he creates very organic sound patterns. the music might evoke images of deserts, chemical warfare plants, rugged landscapes, rocket takeoffs and hectic suburban night life. but there is an additional level of meaning. pixel invites the listener to discover his mise en abîme - the image behind the image. suggestion and impression interact and develop an astonishing force to attract the listener. the interplay of these two contrary elements allows unusual ways of traveling. ‘the drive’ is the perfect soundtrack for this journey.

after ‘display’ (r-n057) and ‘set your center between your parts in order to’ (r-n064) ‘the drive’ is pixel’s third album on raster-noton.

pixel. set your center between your parts in order to

set your center between your parts in order to is the highly anticipated follow up release to the stellar debut display by danish artist pixel aka jon egeskov. as a professionally trained jazz musician with academic credentials, egeskov furthers his journey into the realm of minimalistic electronic music. with parts he continues merging digital (sound) artifacts with subsonic basslines in a rather allusive manner. inspired by african conflict and cross rhythms, pixel examines the potential of simultaneous yet independent pulsating metres. he fuses polyrhythmic and polymetrics with the signature raster-noton sound vocabulary and thus connects his work to the here and now.

the tracks are heavily accentuated in regards to dynamics. they were recorded during several studio sessions without any overdubs (and without editing later). pixel may have drawn inspiration to proceed this way after witnessing live performances by pansonic and autechre. the songs were created intuitively and spontaneously during the process and performing and improvising. you can indeed hear that everything is floating and that there are no statics or incidental situations.

the album set your center between your parts in order to gets it's sparks from the ups and downs of it's density... from the complex blending of basic particles to the shift in their significance. if you allow yourself to get into this dark and evolving fabric a auditory sensation of rhythmicized timer will emerge.

mastered by stefan betke of pole / scape.
