IUA – Over the Archway (remixes) {[one024]}

Artist: IUA
Title: Over the Archway (remixes)
Label: One
Catalog #: [one024]
Release Date: 2006/03/12

When the idea first came up to do a series of remixes for IUA’s release ‘eee ooo ahh’ we first suspected we would turn to the family-like list of One musicians, but it turned out Mike was eager to recruit the remixers himself so we let him have at it. Not only are the results pleasing but they were in such numbers that it was decided to do a seperate release. Which is what you have here.

This collection of remixes for IUA’s ‘over the archway’ features talent familiar to many. Some (Proswell, Octopus Inc, Aghost) are contributors to the label Kracfive (a favorite of ours)- who Mike himself has battled in the past by participating in the ever on-going Iron Chef of Music. The others, Khonnor and Wankersunited, are no strangers either – particularly with the former’s well recieved release at Type Records.

V.A. – L’Arbre d’un Train {BKTR007}

Artist: V.A.
Title: L’Arbre d’un Train
Label: Backtrack
Catalog #: BKTR007
Release Date: 2005/10/17

_L’Arbre d’un Train_, a compilation.

Pretty. Sad. Lovely. There’s just enough variation to both make you want to fall asleep to it and make you want to open your ears up in amazement. With the first sign of autumn, we use music to remember our lost years, and we do not forget our happiest days.

Featuring netaudio legends Grandma (Monotonik, Khonnor of Type Records), Proswell (of Merck Records), Sense (Neo Ouija and Eem records), Transient (Monotonik, Miasmah, Camomille), Xerxes (Hellven, Camomille, Apegenine), a slew of other netlabel popstars (Valisproject, 143, Kaneel, Imtech, and Blisaed) and brilliant rising talent (Xtatic, Mike Shusta, Troupe, Nil, Valzi, Fah, Mister Cat, Sunburn, Malmen, Nick Beman, and Insektr.)

Nearly eight months in the making, _L’Arbre d’un Train_ is well worth the wait.

Proswell – Dryrot {[one05]}

Artist: Proswell
Title: Dryrot
Label: One
Catalog #: [one05]
Release Date: 2004/03/13

A 45 minute continuous mix from Proswell, ft. b-sides, out takes, new material, and a few favorites from his sophomore release Carrot Dossier (columbo theme, tar and atari, rat news) on m3rck records. Even with this relation, Dryrot is easily a release with its own identity.

Finding time between releases at m3rck and running Inpuj, he explores the laid back and driving sound that’s heard between the cracks of Carrot Dossier and often strays from the sound that defined that album (as is heard within the opening minutes). While a welcome and surprise release from one of our favorites, the unique sensibility and style of this release also makes an exceptional introduction to those that have yet to hear his music and will most likely leave them searching for more.

–

The final track on the mix is titled ‘llipuru’ and was exclusively released on the excellent Intelligent Toys compilation from Sutemos (free). Also ft. tracks from Tim Koch, Stud, Khonnor, Sleepy Town Manufacture, Sense + more.

01 – Dryrot

V.V.A.A. – Cucina Vagabonda {od061}

Artist: V.V.A.A.
Title: Cucina Vagabonda
Label: Ogredung
Catalog #: od061
Release Date: 2003/11/08

A year after the releasing of the first compendium, Ogredung proposes you a release even more surprising and passionate than the succesful Snowsky. Without replicating modules and strategies, our audacious experimentators reveal themselves as endowed with an outstanding creativity. The tasty carnet of contributors spaces in a variety of styles and tendencies that go from Paolo Veneziani’s (Tibprod, Cobalt) neo-cosmic sounds to Puyopuyo’s (19-t, Gagarin) fierce weirdo-synthpop, without losing sight of the common path that leads the whole work: autumn. Enwrapped by the delicate parfumes of Imtech’s (Observatoryonline) autumnal whispers, Urkuma, Phobode and Strinqulu’s (MikMusik, Merck, Saag) sonorous poetry and Kaneel’s (Camomille, Kikapu) nostalgic dronebeats, we are kicked up by Makunouchi Bento’s (Retinascan, Inpuj) subtle elaborate of obscure flows and the hypnotic hug of Luca Confusione; and still, Iermoç and Transient’s (Koept, Hippocamp, Monotonik, Skylab Operations) quasi-obsessive IDM-intricacy, Vizion’s (Monotonik, Camomille, Wikkid) determined melodic moments and Proswell’s (Merck, Civik, 19-t) top electronics. A live recording of Corkzal’s (Commie) perfectly closes the circle.

Proswell – 0EO {mtk061}

Artist: Proswell
Title: 0EO
Label: Monotonik
Catalog #: mtk061
Release Date: 2001/09/12

Though we’ve admired his work on the net.label Inpuj, plus current/forthcoming real.life releases on Merck and Saundart, we haven’t had a chance to put out anything from US idm.artist Proswell.. until now, that is.

But “0EO”, possibly named after a certain chip-tune related tracker-based command which you can hear used on the track, is a really enchanting piece of intelligently puttering idm-ness, again, sorta indescribable in its multiple layering and soaring subtle sounds, but a little reminiscent of the most delicate, sweetest artists around – Isan, Mum, BoC?

And when everything kicks in, “0EO” is like a slumber-filled tint on the kind of euphoria you got when you watched and listened to “Music Sounds Better With You”, seeing a kid launching a glider off a grassy hill in the hazy summer heat, the beats looping and quietly endorphin-rushing over and over. Significantly, slinkily.. yum.
