“-Valeska Rautenberg- в очередной раз доказала себе и своим слушателям, что делать музыку для себя то же самое, что и создавать искусство. Прекрасное, воздушное произведение в лучах кинематографической мелодии и атмосферных слоях Ambient & Drone.”

‘NOVEMBRE13_ is an expansive instrumental composition, a monumental cut in which JoyCut create a textured and detailed soundscape, moving from a soft and gentle sound to a cinematic grandeur density. Placing themselves between the experimental post-rock of Sigur Rós and Mogwai, the grand ambient landscapes of Erased Tapes’ A Winged Victory For The Sullen and the sparing use of dynamic range of Stars Of The Lid, JoyCut move across contemporary explorative sounds capable to release a glorious spike of dopamine in the brain.

The upcoming album, ‘TheBluWave [TimesWhenSilenceIsAPoem - TheIceHasMelted - AndBleedingGlaciersFormOurTears]_’, is in the band’s own words “dedicated to those who love to linger on the ways of introversion. Explorations dedicated to the experience of abstraction, disorientation, travel, return”. In their quest to highlight these experiences JoyCut came across the short documentary ‘Taller Than The Tree’ By Academy Award-winning director Megan Mylan, which profiles one middle-aged Japanese man stuck in a crisis of care. Masami Hayata is a Tokyo man delicately balancing his roles as advertising executive, father, husband and devoted son to his ailing mother. Japanese men haven't traditionally been caregivers, but for Masami Hayata, it's a crucial part of raising his family.

Using two excerpts from the movie, JoyCut present their news single ‘NOVEMBRE13_’ as the score to this extraordinary story, which invites us to reflect on contemporary Japanese culture, and the demographic and societal changes that have created a crisis of caregiving in a very competitive society. Watch NOVEMBRE13 | MASAMI_Here and NOVEMBRE13 | MASAMI&SHION_ Here. “With NOVEMBER13_’s visual narration we wanted to evoke the spirit of longevity, slowness, fragility, silence, ethereal detachment of the transient substratum of earthly events. There are themes our upcoming new THEBLUWAVE is dedicated to and with the two different visual narratives are offered as another critical food for thought,” says the band.

JoyCut announced the album with the single ‘ThePlasticWhale_’ available as an exclusive through Brian Eno’s EarthPercent Bandcamp compilation for World Earth Day - Download ‘ThePlasticWhale_’ On Bandcamp. On this subject JoyCut have always been one step ahead. Since the beginning, environmental issues have been a central part of the band’s philosophy, made evident by active collaborations with 350.org, Italian Climate Network and the ‘NU-Clear-Sound’ artistic direction, a festival dedicated to green issues. The new album’s packaging perfectly reflects this attitude; “we have entirely made it as green as possible,” they say.

Nancy Mounir – Gannentini

Categories: The Latest, Video, World Music|Tags: , , , , , |

“With bold eastern character and lyrics of passion, Nancy Mounir introduces us to her upcomming release. Arabic vocals telling a story about a painfull separation in a mix of Ambient and instrumental sound patterns. Taste the difference of this song and forget about typical music.”

-Nagamag.com

Moody, hypnotic, and sneakily catchy, Nancy Mounir’s debut album Nozhet El Nofous—whose title means “Promenade of the Souls” in Arabic—explores microtonality, non-metered rhythms, and bold vulnerability through a musical dialogue between Mounir’s own arrangements and the sounds of archival recordings of once-famed singers from Egypt at the turn of the 20th century.

Adding her own ambient arrangements over voices haunted with passion and desire as she creates a sound that is warmly familiar but utterly new. The full spectrum of this ambitious approach can be heard on “Gannentini,” the latest hypnotic track from the upcoming album.

It’s out June 3rd via Simsara Records, with Nancy recently performing the album at the Alexandria Opera in Cairo with the a string orchestra.

The Inner Urge – Six

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

-Automatic Translation with Google Translate-
Virtually extraterrestrial layers of Ambient & Drone, lighten inclusions of neoclassics and state of flight in weightlessness. Six minutes of travel in the country of the castorcallian, cutting waves of wheat fields on white, as if from the children's memories of a sailboat.”

“Практически внеземные слои Ambient & Drone, лёгкие вкрапления неоклассики и состояние полёта в невесомости. Шесть минут путешествия в стране зазеркалья, рассекая волны из пшеничных полей на белом, словно из детских воспоминаний паруснике.”

-Nagamag.com

Artist said about this song:

"Six was written in memory of Tyler Kulp - a friend of ours who passed away suddenly while we were studying at IUP. Tyler was a talented multi instrumentalist well known in the percussion community for his impressive ability to play the marimba with 6 and sometimes even 8 mallets. A pulsing vibraphone rhythm is set up on an Fmaj7 chord using 6 notes. Soon after, chord tones are bowed up high on the same instrument. Electric guitar played with an eBow enters later, doubling the bowed vibraphone tones. Synthesized mellotron-type pads fill in and blend with an overdubbed electric guitar, both soaked in modulation and wet effects. A sawtooth wave sub-bass synth carries the low end. As the song builds, the harmony briefly switches to Gmin7 before releasing. The instrumentation fades away in the same manner that it was introduced. Michael learned how to play 6 mallets for this tune to honor Tyler and his immense talent with 6-8 mallets."

The roots of the song came about at the start of the pandemic as Hayes was jamming with a friend.

“We were playing around with different arpeggios and different delay effects on my Moog Sub 37,” John reflects. “More just experimenting than anything else... I finally came across something that I quite enjoyed and decided, ‘why not record this?’ For a long time, it just existed as this arpeggio you hear playing throughout the song. I would revisit it here and there but never had any plans to do much. I really enjoyed it existing as just this private little piece that I could revisit here and there. Once the pandemic hit, I had a lot of time on my hands, and I decided to elaborate on it a bit. I started to add layers on my Minilogue [synthesizer] that I though emulated strings. I wanted it to be this blend where you can’t tell exactly what is artificial and what is real. This idea of the artificial world online that we dive into each day and the real world that is right out of our window being blended became something that I started to think about quite a bit. This song started to take on that form as I continued to tinker with it. I wanted there to be a blend where it becomes hard to tell where the synthesizers and the real strings begin and end, all while this arpeggio keeps dancing in the background. The artificial world and real-world meeting in music, and shaking hands."
