🎶Weeklistening / Experimental week ⠀ 🔔 #MaxEilbacher #bellformations @guess__newmodel sound and resonance studies of various ringing sound sources, especially bells. I love bells. And here they are just a lot. This is the best sound I've heard in a while. _____ 🎷 #LasseMarhaug #harmoniamacrocosmica @lassemarhaug creativity on the verge of madness and improvisation. But whatever it is, this sound well reflects The Chaos, its probabilities, and the random fluctuations in which everything is. Therefore, I do not consider noise to be something structureless, although it is part of it, but the essence of structure is still present in it - and this is a kind of image, an idea that, like the Higgs boson, glues together the materia of sound. _____ 🎹 #Mariawhorn #epistasis @mariawhorn cold, quiet, carefree and measured release. Like a fresh mist descending from the mountains down the valley, just as cool, almost tangible, yet incorporeal. _____ 🎻 #KitDownes #deadeye @kitdownesmusic something in the style of avant-garde-progressive kraut (or kraut rock), while flowing into instrumental experimentation. In general, you can listen for reading time or relax, it's not something completely radically. The previous release was similar to something jazzy. ______ #weeklistening #musicofaweek #music #musicreviews #reviews #playlist #playlistening #drone #instrumental #classic #noise #bells #organ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfyosv3Ln4Y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

200 Words: EILBACHER/MOSKOS/MOORE

(In 200 Words, we highlight a new record we like a lot, via a 200-word review by Marc Masters and 200 words (or so) from the artist about whatever they choose.)

EILBACHER / MOSKOS / MOORE - SEF III LP (Ehse)

There’s no sound quite as entrancing as the plain human voice. I’ve zoned to drones and nodded out to noise, but somehow nothing quiets my cortex like words simply spoken. The center of SEF III is Alex Moskos’ calm, assured speech, and it entrances in a way that makes the sounds that slowly gather around him feel like a dream - like surreal events that probably should be happening, right? I mean they’re happening. They happen. I’m not dreaming them, I don’t think. I keep blinking and they keep being there.

This trio’s update on Alvin Lucier’s “I Am Sitting In A Room” – it changes “I Am” to “I’m” and talks a lot more about clowns – is the most meditative example of SEF III’s hypnotic dream-state effect, but the whole thing is deliciously surreal in many different ways: one track is pure electroacoustic improv, another edits hip-hop songs into pointillist abstraction, another is musique concrète made from sounds of an alien coffee shop (I’m guessing there). What sticks it all to the back of my eyelids is the trio’s patience, which makes every sound seem simply like what had to be. In that sense, SEF III is a must.

ALEX MOSKOS on SEF III

I got really excited about the SEF III project when Duncan Moore showed me his text “I’m Sitting In A Room” and asked me to read it for our first Eilbacher/Moskos/Moore show. In his piece of writing the narrator sits in a room and describes the apparition of a series of clowns. There’s Den with a lion heart, the clown computer named Palisand (“a desktop may wear face paint and make mistakes too”) and Jermaine Calm, the Zen train wreck. Duncan’s reverie is like the software, your imagination the hardware and the text, the clowns as they are described in language, a VR experience. No auxiliary hardware needed like drugs or dare I say it, music. It’s a theme we keep coming back to in SEF III: the imagination as the original VR. We used the text for the first track on the record. Duncan plays tapes and Max plays electronics. As the text develops there is a slow disintegration of syntax and soon the words ring out only sonorously.  Some meaning remains but the experience continues in a clown-y abstraction. Max and Dunc’s electronics really come raining down as you perceive the shattered sentences and feel the clowns.  

SEF III is out on now on Ehse. Buy it here.
