awx.lt: awxguestcast #2 (compiled by Zhang JW)



Antrasis mano svečio podcast’as iš serijos awxguestcast ir jį įrašė senas mano bičiulis iš Kinijos – Zhang JW. Kadangi jis yra bene vienintelio man žinomo kinų elektroninės muzikos netleiblo Bypass įkūrėjas ir savininkas, tai paprašiau, kad visi kūriniai būtų paimti būtent iš šio netleiblo kolekcijos – aš pats tikrai apie juos labai mažai rašiau ir čia yra puiki netleiblo prezentacija. Su Zhang JW susipažinau prieš porą metų, kai ieškojau didžiojoje Kinijoje besislepiančių netleiblų. Aptikau tik šį – garso inžinierium Kinijoje dirbantis Zhang JW man tuo metu papasakojo kokia sudėtinga yra ten situacija su interneto cenzūra, todėl nelabai kas nori užsiimti tuo, kas netrukus bus cenzūruota. Aišku, yra būdų kaip tai apeiti ir Zhang JW stengiasi tai daryti, dėl ko jį palaiko visa netaudio bendruomenė. Jis taip pat dirba ir prie kito projekto – Netaudio Index.

Pasak paties Zhang JW, šiai kompiliacijai jis surinko įvairios stilistikos muziką, taip parodydamas Bypass netleiblo idėją nesusikoncentruoti tik ties vienu stiliumi, taip pat atskleisdamas ir savo simpatijas laužytiems eksperimentiniams ritmams. Be to, jis dar prisipažino, kad rašyti apie muziką, kaip ir man, nelabai sekasi, mieliau jos klausosi – trankūs ritmai padeda galvoti, ambientiniai – atsipalaiduoti. Iš karto įspėju – čia rasi visko, ką leidžia Bypass netleiblas – nuo IDM iki tech house, nuo ambient iki glitch. Laidos premjera įvyko trečiadienį, 2011.11.16 per radio.audiomastering.lt ir kai kas jau turėjo progos pasimėgauti Bypass netleiblo garsais.

Radio: Netaudio - Kreativ an der Zensur vorbei



Bypass gehört mit Titeln, die bis zu 10.000 Mal runtergeladen wurden, zu den erfolgreicheren Netlabels. Die ersten acht Veröffentlichungen stammten von Zhang selbst. Der Musiker, Toningenieur und Gründer des Labels wollte seine eigene Musik verbreiten. Seinen Traum, vor allem chinesischen Künstlern einen Plattform zu bieten, musste er allerdings aufgeben. Die chinesische Internetzensur machte ihm einen Strich durch die Rechnung.

Jochen Dreier und Christian Grasse berichten für DRadio Wissen ausführlich über Zhang und sein Netlabel Bypass. (more)

Link: DOWNLOAD: Enko – Jazl Mnstr [Bypass] // DARKFLOOR



"The latest offering from Chinese netlabel Bypass has landed, together with a superb site redesign harking back to early DOS based computer programming.

The producer behind the sounds of the Jazl Mnstr mini LP is Enko; one Enkolf Kitler from Ukraine presently living and working in Moscow. He started releasing his music back in ’08 through netlabels SUBWISE, Pavillon36 Recordings, and Qulture Production and cites of one his major influences as that of Autechre.

Presented is an 11 track 34 minute excursion into the mind of Enkolf. Taking in broken beat step programming, glitchy stutters, fuzzy finishes and jazzy drum interludes such as that shown on Kont (JZL), iXet and Max Mospin; akin to early Ninja Tune and the work of Funki Porcini. This is joined by some lovely minimalist electronica as expressed with Melanholloh."
Article: Cossack Magicians vs. Modern Concrete: Zavoloka, Enko, and V4W.Enko | Far from Moscow



"Sumy is a town in Northern Ukraine that first appeared on the map over three hundred years ago in order to defend Cossack territory against warring outsiders. The nineteenth and twentieth centuries would transform Sumy into a less dangerous industrial center, but a proud connection to those earlier times persists. The image above shows a dual spiritual and industrial heritage today - in a typically ramshackle fashion, redolent of our somewhat grayer age.

From the standpoint of contemporary music, designed to orchestrate these times and places, Sumy is home to a young artist known as Enko. His work has been showcased here on several occasions. He now has an album available for free download with the title of "Jazl Mnstr." It comes to us via the Chinese netlabel Bypass and was engineered by the project's founder, who himself performs in Beijing under the stage name of ZhangJW.

Enko remains a man of very few words, beginning with his insistent unwillingness to publish any private information beyond his Christian name, Artem. The promotional materials for "Jazl Mnstr," in a similarly tight-lipped fashion, consist of a mere six sentences. Here we're reminded that Enko has moved northwards to Moscow, where he continues to nurture a musical career that was conceived under the specific influence of Autechre. His output, since those early days, has appeared through a range of netlabels such as Subwise, Pavillon36 Recordings, and Qulture."...

A nice review byMarc Weidenbaum, disquiet.com.



Genres don't die. They just slow down and take root. Ask any current bebop, rockabilly, or drum'n'bass crew. Sometimes the rooting is regional. To dive into the world of electronic music in the former Soviet Union and related territories is to find deep outposts of late-1970s-era fusoid proto-electronica, wafty vapors whose attempt to signify etherealness is at odds with the histrionic drama of chords sturdy enough to use as a hammock. And, increasingly, and perhaps preferably, spending time in Slavic record bins (or their virtual equivalent) also means finding numerous albums that could have been released on the Ninja Tune label during its early heyday, the mid-1990s.

Case in point, the recent album Jazl Mnstr by Enko, aka Enkolf Kitler, who lives in Moscow but was raised and educated in the Ukraine. Heavy on rhythm, it's drums and bass but not, for the most part, drum'n'bass. Once upon a time this would have had the name Funki Porcini or Amon Tobin on it. Heard at this late date, the emphasis on rhythmic play sounds "post-rock" at times, the way it employs the cornerstones of a band but prods them, probes them, toward their own end, rather than merely utilizing them as a supporting structure for a vocalist.

Of course, like a lot of good post-rock, the band format that Enko is probing isn't really a rock band at all, but a jazz one. "Kont (JZL)" opens with a round-the-kit drum pattern that's all loose and world-weary, and little at all changes even as slow strips of synthesized tones get layered atop it (MP3). "Max Mospin" explores similar territory but at roughly half the pace, and the sound is as if it's being recorded from the other end of an impossibly long rectangular room (MP3). One major treat is the opening track, appropriately titled "Sparking Noise," that's all glistening static and notes that proclaim themselves as the penultimate moments of some epiphanic melody, and yet never quite resolve; if a synthesizer were a can of soda, this is what it would sound like when you popped it open (MP3).

Naysayers can dismiss such genre enclaves as holding patterns, but genres can be like clocks, which even when broken tell the correct time twice a day. For every coolhunter who thinks a certain type of music's time has come and gone, there's another noting how such-and-such classic sound is back. (The same can be said of food criticism: "Oh, sushi is so 1980s." "Oh, comfort food like mashed potatoes and chicken fried steak is suddenly all the rage.") Hems go up; hems go down. Best to ignore the trendwatchers and appreciate the level of dedication of the parties involved.

Album released on the Bypass netlabel at archive.org. More on Enko at his last.fm page.

Creative notes of Calico Pastry Sunshine from Dave posted on The Muse In Music

"The main idea for these tracks was to use samples of sung vocals. I had done stuff with spoken vocals before, and I really wanted to try to come up with some settings for sung parts. The other idea was to use sounds that I associated with early psychedelic music.

So the first thing I did was comb through all the vocal samples at ccmixter.org, a site where people upload samples for remixing. One of the ones I really liked was “the heartless bastard thought” which is by a woman named CiggiBurns. She has a cool accent, and an acerbic style, and that line really appealed to me. So I pulled that line, which, of course, completely robbed it of its context, but for my purposes that was a good thing.

Once I had the sample I put a really simple kick-snare beat under it. I had the sequencer set to 140 beats per minute, and I was using common time, and the line really didn’t lay well over those setting. So I moved the pitch of the line up a whole step, which also increased its tempo a hair, and then it actually fit pretty well, and I was able to start fleshing it out. I subbed a djembe sample for the kick and the snare, and put little guitar hits on the second and fourth beats, and that gave it a little reggae flavor, and from that point on all pretense of getting an early psychedelic sound pretty much vanished."...

Review: Recent music heroes: Cagey House - Calico Pastry Sunshine (2011)

/Psychedelic, Art-pop, Plunderphonics, Film noir, Cut and paste, Avant-garde, Experimental electronica, Space age pop, Hauntology/


Firstly, Dave Keifer aka Cagey House hides behind himself a peculiar phenomenon where the music of him seems to be sounded outside of the recent era, mostly back to the 60`s and 70`s, yet, it is strictly future music on its own. Secondly, as he is used to manipulate with samples and sounds, he is able to evoke lots of good memories and direct it upon the listeners as well. In the recent case, however, psychedelic electronica meets space age pop meets hauntology, all of which is wrapped up in the concept of plunderphonic/sampledelic music as Keifer has practised during more than 10 albums so far. Still, it is greatly funny and even some art-rock-ish tunes can be heardable over a long stretch of time. By the way, the coverprints of Keifer`s albums are still used to be great ones.
Review: NetMusic Life: [BP062] Cagey House - "Calico Pastry Sunshine"

Cagey House (Dave Keifer), è uno degli artisti più singolari dell'attuale scena musicale contemporanea.

Prolifico, bizzarro, originale, Dave ha iniziato a comporre musica dal 1999, suonando svariati strumenti (armonica, batteria, pianoforte, chitarra) fino alla scoperta del computer e delle sue potenzialità. Nella prima decade del 2000 Cagey House ha prodotto molti album (non sono riuscito a trovare una discografia completa ed affidabile, ma credo che questo dovrebbe essere il quindicesimo circa) appoggiandosi a svariate netlabels mondiali (ha collaborato con Nishi, Boom Foot, Dog Eared Records etc.) Nel nuovo "Calico Pastry Sunshine" Dave collabora con ByPass, netlabel cinese (Pechino) fondata da ZhangJW nel 2008. Come specifica Dave in un'approfondita intervista ritrovata su The muse in music, il suo metodo di comporre è inconsciamente disordinato ("il modo più rapido di produrre musica mediocre è di procedere in modo ordinato", afferma simpaticamente Dave). Un enorme libreria di sample volutamente disorganizzata e un gran numero di virtual instruments. Il risultato è una musica che può avvicinarsi alle dinamiche di un cartoon di Hanna & Barbera, o in altri momenti ai vari passaggi di livello di un videogame. Centinaia di elementi che si succedono cavalcando innumerevoli stati d'animo e situazioni creando una musica che non è assolutamente un pasticcio sonoro ma una valanga di idee, fervida creatività, sfrontata e audace. Se ci si mette a cercare si trova qualsiasi cosa...come pescare a caso dentro ad uno scatolone pieno di figurine dei musicisti e dei generi dell'ultimo secolo. Zappa, Zorn, Beatles, Joe Jackson, musica classica contemporanea, fusion anni 80/90, la lista potrebbe procedere per pagine e pagine. Abbandonarsi alla musica di Cagey House è un'esperienza formidabile. La noia si nasconde in qualche altra galassia, certamente non qua.

Thierry's words of Fescal - Lethal Industry [BP056]:

"The share of our subservient illusions - the balance - and still run away the consistency of things, the pernicious perception of senses and ideas - Confusion - escape the unwelcome reality - rush over more - believe it - losing touch - believe - take a side road and sometimes abandon all control - Pragmatic and insightful. Fescal explores this portion of our glittering desires where are meshing delicate balance between benign outlook and terra incognita - a diffuse frontier bordering distant interlaced grating and sometimes a few slender dark laminars (aboon) - But stop ! Back to reality - a single moment - the thickness of our (precious?) evidences - a short moment but the matrix distorts again and not without a graceful agility - soon the contact will be broken, sailing on an uncertain surface, unless we still are not dockside - motionless traveler - a certainty ... In the meantime, keep on cheering !" says he somewhere." – Thierry Massard

Just finished the new Bypass site called Bypass Netlabel Terminal System (v1.0), a pure javascript terminal CLI produce.

As the world is growing so fast that I finally feel a little bit tired of the colorful space of Internet. And also as the whole netlabel culture was start from demoscene, then I decide turn the Bypass to it nature face, and maybe formally enter to the underground forever.

Review: Syndrôm – Nomades En No Man’s Land « Disruptive Platypus (thanks)

It’s always a good thing when two great labels get together in some fashion. So when Bypass released their second net album from Pavilion 36‘s Syndrôm, it’s win-win, right? Of course it is. Listening to Syndrôm is like trying to watch TV while a four-year old hepped up on caffeine is in possession of the remote control. Whether the artist dips into the world of hip hopish in “La Vallée Noire” or the reggaefied “Dala Dala”, the listener is totally unaware of where the beats are leading, while all time enjoying the musical journey.

Review: Fescal – Lethal Industry « Efescenmeyer's Blog

This is a nice 8-track collection of probably loosely described ambient music. I think it would work really well around 3pm on a Sunny Saturday, and definetly with headphones. Fescal does a pretty good job of combining drone with just enough melody to make it work right. Overall, the release is consistent. There are two tracks stray a bit, notably Wayfaring Geography, having a darker feel and Aboon which has elements of field recording mixed in – to good effect, though.

Review: Syndrôm – Nomades En No Man’s Land « Efescenmeyer's Blog

There’s a lot of music on the web. There’s a lot of pretty good music on the web for free and then there’s something from a netlabel that is really really good. This Syndrom album Nomades En No Man’s Land is one of those.

When I reflect on it, I think of something of a cake – ythe frosting is basically Amon Tobin while the thick cakey bits are definitely the hard parts of Photek. So, yes, it is drumb and bass, but not the Dieselboy variety.

Normally, I like to talk about what tracks really shine on a release, but this one is so cohesive that even though it has 20 tracks, it feels like one. The whole thing seems like a story, very good headphone music with a very well executed sound. I totally recommend this one. It works really well for a sunny day as it works for a drive through fog – both I have tested.

Review: Fescal | tokafi.com

The oeuvre of Fescal is an attempt of disproving the notion that instrumental music is by default incapable of delivering a message. Firmly rooted in deep ambient, atmospheric drones and darkly associative soundscapes, the project's first trio of releases doesn't require metaphorical spoken word contributions, pseudo-intellectual titles or liner notes to rise above the mere acoustic massage and „pure entertainment“ of most albums from the genre. Rather, the devil's in the detail, revealing itself through a glacially unfolding narrative.

„Lethal Industry“ is perhaps most tangible in this regard: Haunting choirs are chanting in the distance („The Harbour Master“) and syrupy organ points are viscously flowing through clouds of hiss („Orichalcum“), while mysterious processes are stirring underneath the lense of Fescal's microscope. Tracks like „Moon Man“, with its serene pulsation and breathing layers of metallic dust or „Atlas Air“, a single complex tone sustained for six full minutes, are meanwhile turning „Endorphin“ into a feast for lovers of the drone.

Most ambitious, however, is „Twin“, Fescal's latest work on pioneering German netlabel Tonatom: Glistening ambiances are interwoven with fantastical field recordings, all seemingly rotating around eight-and-a-half-minute „Sunday Morning“, which injects a dose of genial tranquilisers into an otherworldly vision of musique concrete and dreamy chimes.

"'Mel' – Aogu Yoshida projektas kuriantis melancholišką experimental stiliaus muziką,kurioje įžvelgiu field recordings,drone ir IDM įtakos.Reziume pats skambesys šviesus ir svaiginantis.Galbūt tai dėl švelnaus drone į kurį įjungta elektrinės gitara.Arba tai field recordings “kaltė”.Bet greičiausiai šie abu dalykai neperskiriami ir kartu įkūnija tai ką išgirsite 'Unguarded'."...

Review: Recent music heroes: Fescal Lethal Industry (Bypass) (Thanks to sagittari)

[Estonian] Fescal´i debüütalbum "Lethal Industry" on üks hägune ja kummastav halo- ja hauntopiiridega teos, mille aluseks on avar hüpnootiline helipilt ja eksperimentalistlikud analüütilised ideed. Ühelt poolt ambient-muusika, kuid selgelt oleviku ääre peal seisev, st milles peituvad sound art- ja field recording-loogika ja allikad pluss elektroakustiline virvendus. Muusika, mis püüdleb immanentselt eemaleambient-kehandi klišeelikkusest, eemale selle ohtlikest lõksudest. Lõksud, mis peituvad apelleerivas "sügavuses", st sisutühjuses, mis nii sageli ambient-teostele saatuslikuks saavad. Üllitis koosneb 8 rajast ja 35 minutist, milles marginaalsele helile (sahinad, suvalised sämplid, jutukõmin) on antud vorm ja mõte. Kohati tume ja kummituslik, sageli abstraktne, kuid mitte kordagi settiv ja kopituv. Nagu mingi stiihiline voog, mille loomuldaseks ja kaunistavaks tungiks on liikuda ja liikuda- st paisuda ja vaibuda -, omandades ajapikku ja märkamatult teistsugused reljeefid, mistõttu triivi(de) suuna järele pärimine näib kaunis mõttetu. Selles ei peitu eesmärk. See on justkui kaleidoskoop, mille tuum seisneb protsessi jälgimises, monumentumite ülestäheldamises. Jäin "Lethal Industry"`d kuulates poolteiseks tunniks arvuti taha sügavalt magama - mida ei olnud muideks minuga kaua aega juhtunud. Siinkirjutaja personaalne lemmik on sünge ja pahaendeline Wayfaring Geography.

Review: The Coat Hanger Clinic, by Cursed Chimera « The Muse In Music

Review: Recent music heroes: Cagey House B for Breakfast (Bypass)

(Estonian) Kas B for Breakfast" on sama, mis oleks "H hommikusöögi tarvis"? Või peab jätkuvalt täht "B" seda seost tunnusmärgitsema? Või hoopis mõni teine initsiaal? Näiteks M(esilane)? See on ilmselt sama, mis küsida, mis eristab Dave Keifer`i 13. albumit tema eelmistest teostest "Lark" ja "1902". Narratiivi muutused pisiasjades, millel on illusoorne moment juures, st tegelikkuses ameeriklase muusikalist kehandit muutmata. Hoolimata tõigast, et Jaapani leibel (Bump Foot) on vahetunud Hiina oma (Bypass) vastu - viimane on ennekõike tuntud rütmikeskse elektroonilise muusika kataloogi läbi. Tõepoolest, Cagey House`i kulg - 5 lugu 14 minuti sees - on jätkuvalt mittetantsuline ja sämplikeskne - kummastavad miljööd, happelised sündipassaažid, spooky klaverimuusika, teatraalsed sopransämplid - mis kokkuvõttes justkui pärineks kusagilt kummitusooperist. Sametise interjööriga art house-muusika. Metafüüsiline noir. Minu lemmiklugu on Honey Yep Nope - hunnitute vokaalosiste ja klaveriakordidega klanitud sundimatu electro-draiv.

Review: noCo...mment: Cagey House :: b for breakfast



la légèreté d'être, d'entendre et probablement de voir aussi, à chaque nouvelle réalisation de Cagey House, Dave Keifer nous enchante, nous ravit et nous permet, encore et toujours, d'espèrer que le monde pourrait être ainsi fait, de brics et de brocs, de timballes enchantées, de fanfares chamarrées, de libertinages écervelés, d'accords de guitares de dentelles, de divas supersoniques et d'un sourire de Kurt Schwitters, d'un collage libellule de Kinle Wo, de tambours battants, du voisinage d'un lièvre de mars, d'enfants toujours espiègles et d'adultes faisant des grimaces amusantes à l'ordre et la raison, avant de s'enfuir vers le prochain instant - un instant de bonheur.

by Thierry Massard

And some cool words:

Beautiful album of Cagey House. It sounds like 60's cartoons soundtrack. I feel like when I was a children while i listen to it. If you don't know his music, please try it.
