Fyfe & Iskra Strings – Night Sky

Categories: Neoclassical, The Latest, Video|Tags: , , , |

“Imagine the night sky strewn with stars sparkling in the distance. Their faint light ignites warm rays of hope inside you, instilling a light and pleasant melancholy into your weary souls. A beautiful Neoclassical production with amazing vocals.”

“Представьте себе ночное небо усыпанное сверкающими в дали звёздами, их неотразимый свет зажигает внутри вас тёплые лучи надежды, вселяя в ваши утомившиеся души лёгкую и приятную меланхолию. Прекрасное неоклассическое полотно с потрясающим вокалом.”

Fyfe and Iskra Strings today share a fresh glimpse into their eagerly anticipated ‘Interiority’ album by sharing the brand new track ‘Night Sky’. Set to be released on June 10th, ‘Interiority’ will be the duo’s first full album together after previously releasing two self-titled EPs, which were combined in 2019’s ‘Extended Play’ collection.

‘Night Sky’ perfectly encapsulates the duo’s ability to conjure evocative images with their multi-textured soundscapes. Initially the song establishes that nocturnal mood by drawing heavily on Iskra Strings’ neo-classical roots. Suddenly and surprisingly it takes flight, with swooning vocal layers and increasingly bombastic strings adding an adventurous streak to its beguiling beauty. Listen HERE.

‘Night Sky’ is indicative of the broad scope of the ‘Interiority’ album. It’s a track that offers something completely different to the existential, ethereal alt-kilter pop of the previously released title track or the hypnotically haunting ‘’, which features Mysie. Despite those sonic differences, there’s a cohesive sense of boundary-breaking throughout, especially with the input of further special guests including Ghostpoet, Rae Morris, Aquilo and Kelly Lee Owens.

‘Interiority’ is available to pre-order or pre-save HERE.

All vinyl copies of the album will be produced using recycled vinyl. The Super Deluxe package is also sure to be a future collectors’ item. Limited to just 25 copies, it features a section of the original painting of the album’s sleeve which will be signed by artist Dan Whiteson; a personal handwritten note from Fyfe & Iskra Strings; and copies of the album on both vinyl and CD.

While ‘Interiority’ often pulsates with an otherworldly ambience, the duo’s back story is completely down-to-earth. The duo first met in the London suburb of Acton almost twenty years ago, when Iskra Strings (James Underwood) was hired to give Fyfe (Paul Dixon) violin lessons. They remained friends as their careers took off: Iskra Strings becoming a go-to collaborator for the likes of The xx, Maribou State and Sufjan Stevens, while Fyfe released acclaimed solo albums such as ‘Control’ and ‘The Space Between’. Their collaboration on ‘Extended Play’ showed the endless possibilities that could come with a full album project together – and that will be fully realised with the release of ‘Interiority’.

Felix Rösch – Berceuse Rework

Categories: Audio, Features, Neoclassical, Neoclassical Features, The Latest|Tags: , , , |

“This Neoclassical composition will fill you with warm sensations that will smoothly cool down, like a cup of warm tea in your hands. Music that is able to pick up the key to your soul and maintain the necessary balance of harmony and peace inside it.”

“Эта неоклассическая композиция наполнит вас тёплыми ощущениями, которые будут плавно остывать, словно кружка тёплого чая в ваших руках. Музыка, которая способна подобрать ключ к вашей душе и сохранить в ней необходимый баланс гармонии и умиротворения. ”

After the great success of ‘Berceuse’ — with radio plays from New York’s WQXR, to UK’s Scala radio, film synchronizations and beautiful playlist adds — it only felt natural to re-imagine this piece for my upcoming album ‘Fragmente’. While staying true to the original melody, this rework for string quartet and electronics shines a whole new light onto the quiet timbre of this gentle lullaby.

Berlin-based composer Felix Rösch blends his years of experience as a classical composer and his passion for experimental electronic music into colorful, carefully constructed arrangements and contemplative ambiences.

His music is inspired by contemporary classical composers like John Adams, Henryk Górecki, and Anders Hillborg as well as artists like Rival Consoles, Max Richter and Ben Frost.

His latest EP ‘Piano’ — out May 28 — meshes fluid piano improvisations with carefully constructed layers of analog synthesizers and delicate string arrangements. The EP was entirely produced live on YouTube. On Feb 3 the second single ‘Interlude II’ from ‘Piano’ was released. “This track started as a piano improvisation, where I was fascinated by the idea of stoically repeating the most rudimentary two-note chord possible. That simplicity felt very liberating like I just hit the bottom of something I still can't really describe. From there everything else fell into place pretty quickly. This is probably my favorite piece on this EP.” Felix says.

‘Piano’ follows 2020’s ‘MYA’ and ‘str:orchestra’, which were featured in Spotify’s Fresh Finds, Classical New Releases, and Not Quite Classical playlists, and were licensed to a global Burberry advertisement campaign.

Over the past ten years, his orchestral compositions have frequently been performed and recorded by world-renowned orchestras like the German Film Orchestra Babelsberg and the WDR Symphony Orchestra & Choir. He has won several awards and scholarships and his music can be heard in countless theater performances, audiobook soundtracks, and film scores.

“Sometimes music seems to invite you in a dance. This instrumental composition makes wonders. It takes you by the hand and lifts you to the heavens, where on an invisible platform of white clouds, vibrates with you in the melody of a piano.”

“Бывает, что музыка словно призывает вас потанцевать с ней. Это инструментальная композиция творит чудеса. Она берёт вас за руку и уносит в поднебесье, где на невидимой платформе из белых облаков вальсирует вместе с вами под мелодию фортепиано.”

“Dance of invisible shadows that balance on the edge of the abyss. Down there, the singing of the violins and the melody of the piano break every silence, helping to maintain the balance and peace of mind. A beautiful Cinematic piece.”

She invites the listener into the realm of the nonverbal to reveal our primal commonality, directly touching the heart and soul with music that is delicate and subtle, yet powerful and transporting.

Innocenzo Genna – The Chatelain Nocturne

Categories: Audio, Neoclassical, The Latest|Tags: , , , |

“Never underestimate the influencive power of Classical sound. It can create images inside the mind and alter our emotions. This time, Innocenzo Genna takes us to a specific place through his magical melodic piano improvisation. Take a deep breath and follow...”

-Nagamag.com

Artist said about this song:

"This is one of the first pieces I composed in Brussels, after a long artistic break. This is why it is dedicated to Châtelain, the inspiring residential area of Brussels where I settled in 2011 and where I got my creative motivation back. Nevertheless, the creation of this piece was long and complicated: it was not a linear composition, rather a puzzle of a different musical intuitions merging and diverging without a clear scope. Thus, it took almost 8 months to conceive the final version. I added, deleted and modified various parts of the music, I have been struggling to find a satisfactory version. Thus, the initial part of the play was created during a single night in Châtelain, while the second part was composed in Italy during a Christmas trip. The final completion took place in January 2012."
