processing other perspectives
by szely
mosz
mosz015 • 2007

processing other perspectives is the second release on mosz after his debut 'welcome to my world' from 2004. for this album szely has asked some of his friends and music mates for bits and bytes and parts which he later recorded and processed according to the idea of field recording. the result is a composition that can be heard as one whole part. but for cd listening it is divided into 8 themes that can be edited separately.

among the contributors are numerous well-known musicians like thilges' nik hummer, longtime music activist wolfgang kopper, bernhard loibner, martin siewert, ulrich troyer and fantastic singer and performer melita jurisic from australia. she sings on theme-8 which is a remittance work for austrian fine artist thomas feuerstein who recently curated the exhibition 'daemons' at magazin4 in bregenz, austria. szely composed this highly passionate piece based on the lyrics written by feuerstein himself. melita jurisic's marvellous timbre that is able to turn from daemon-like to angelic tones gives this piece this very dramatic note that hasn't been heard before within the work of szely.

szely developed his multichannel composing and became more complex on his second album.the recorded and processed instrumental and voice parts are arranged in a more structured manner so that the particular themes get dominantly rhythmic, vivid, drifting, atmospheric and sometimes pictoral or melancholic. some parts within the several themes are repeated in some other theme slightly altered. the whole album demonstrates szely's approach to pop music in the context of electronic music with a background of multichannel sound architectural work. for szely popular music has always meant the idea of expedition, expansion of borders and search for new sound synthesis. it was only a logic consequence to give room to this searching on the new album. 'processing other perspectives' is the result of an important decision of szely - instead of working alone, in a solipstic way, in the studio for months, he invited friends and collegues to provide sound material [samples, voice], basically as a communicative act, also in the way of field recording out of which szely created his themes. szely's 'processing other perspectives' is an attempt to go new paths, an attempt to re-define the concept of popular music apart from the mainstream.

rashim - "suns.shadows" [mosz011]

"intitially we wanted to bring xenakis and techno together...... well, in the end it sounded really different...." with some irony gina hell from the female duo rashim states what has led to their surprisingly fresh and unconventional debut. 'suns.shadows' is the result of a longtime cooperation with yasmina haddad as rashim, a relationship which started with dee-jaying and works for video artists or fashion designers. the album delivers more than a handful of ideas for those who have been looking after analogue warmth and tricky rhythms. snippets of acoustic guitars built up a steady pattern, a jazz kit merges with a drum-synth, or a repeated stroke on something like a cello could keep you tapping on your table while you listen to a piano chord or a vocal phrase. rashims cosm is definitely eclectic regarding its source material pop culture can meet an orchestral drum solo - but the music is always coherent in its results. maybe this is because of the duos convincing and conscious handling with instruments, sounds and samples, but more likely it is their intuitive approach and the focus on rhythm, a basic and still vivid expression.

cymbalism
by forest jackson
mosz
mosz 009 • 2006

cymbals are probably the most complex part of a drum set. not only do they serve as a rhythmic layer, they produce a whole range of frequencies and sounds, from noise to indicated melodies. carefully treated they expose a nearly orchestral microcosm of their own.

these qualities have served as prominent elements in structuring „cymbalism“, the debut album of berlin´s hanno leichtmann under the moniker forest jackson. combining his work as a drummer (i.e. with jan jelinek) and as electronic musician (static, vulva string quartett), leichtmann comes up with a synthesis of both, the beat-driven track and the exploration of sound. the rhythmic framework, derived from real drums and generated percussions, serves as an accessible basis, which allows enough headroom for soundscapes, which easily could be references to filmscores or a ride through berlin by night, accompagnied by almost dark orchestral samples or dub-like motives.

an invisible map of urban sceneries, drawn by strings and beats, guides the listener from the center of town to the suburbs and back. the logic finale seems to be the pushing „cymbalism“ remix by rechenzentrum.

forest jackson: electronics, drums, vibraphone.
guests: bruce odland: vocals on "can't get used to it"
"kitchenloop revised" is based on material by sam auinger and hannes strobl
"cymbalism rechenzentrum remix" by marc weiser, berlin march 2005

soft left onto westland
by boris hauf
mosz
mosz 008 • 2005

boris hauf, born 1974 in uk, currently living in berlin, as founder of efzeg (boris hauf, burkhard stangl, dieb13, billy roisz, martin siewert), part- time member of chicago based bands tvpow and lozenge, he is better known as improvising musician - he works with acoustic (mainly saxophone) and electronic instruments. other works/projects include comissioned compositions for international festivals, radio- & tv-stations, film, ensembles, solists, performers and theaters.

'soft left onto westland' [mosz008] is the label's 6th release. like martin siewert, boris hauf - primarily introduced and known as an improv musician - produced a rather nontypical cd on mosz which is actually 'sax-free' and only made of electronic sounds ranging from very subtle and minimal to kind of techno-like. skilful and with great musicality hauf mounted all these samples to a surprising result, meaning a groovy, funky and atmospheric album with some ambient parts in-between. 'soft left onto westland' is another kind of 'pop' release on mosz which takes the listener to a relaxed state without being cheesy just one single second.

all tracks composed, reformed and recorded by boris hauf (akm/ austro-mechana), chicage and berlin 2004

voice on 'waste management business': d bayne
singing glass on 'dust': mark stevens
additional recordings on 'tacoma narrows bridge': todd carter

mastered at studio beige by nicholas bussmann and boris hauf, berlin 2005

thanks to litó walkey, the hauf mafia, nickel bussmann, re-p, mosz, michael hartman, todd carter, brent gutzeit, kurt johnson, mark stevens, d bayne.

fremdkorper
by peter rehberg
mosz
mosz 007 • 2006

if the sounds emanating from this disc seem alien, do not be alarmed. fremdkoerper, or "alienated bodies", is culled from a series of compositions peter rehberg constructed in collaboration with choreographer chris haring for a soundtrack to a live dance performance. you can't see the dancers, but you're invited into their alien world where bodies are absent, leaving behind shadows of their sweeping gestures, gentle flourishes, and violent peregrination. the music on this record is the infrastructure of the human body; at times it is pleasant, at others, horrifying.

since fremdkoerper was originally intended as a companion to the dance performance, it lacks the typical structure of his more conventional releases. epic drones lead into dramatic scores. moods change without warning. glitchy textures give way into thick, heavy tones. the transition from the subterranean rumble of opening track "mutisil" to the distorted raygun blast of "scream" is enough to reset your heartbeat (in fact, you can consider this press release fair warning). the hulking sine-wave drone of "1407" is quickly invaded by hungry extraterrestrials on "bite double." this is the record with which to test out your new stereo.

peter rehberg (b. 1968) is an electronic audio artist living and working in vienna, austria. he has given live performances, both solo and collaborative, throughout north and south america, europe, japan and australia. his resume of collaborators is as impressive as it is long, including luminaries such as sonic youth, amm, jim o'rourke, fennesz, zbigniew karkowski, kevin drumm, florian hecker, pan sonic, and keith rowe. rehberg took part in the 2nd göteborg art biennale (against all evens) curated by cm von hausswolff. fremdkoerper isn't rehberg’s first work with dancers. he's collaborated with tujiko noriko for two projects, as dacm, and is currently working with gisele vienne and dennis cooper on two new pieces.
