Sleep Dose

Mercoledì 12 agosto, una nuova mixtape di NigNigNig: Sleep Dose #175 (Pop Is Dead-Banda Fantasma 007)
Frammenti di meteorite scendono sulla terra come scagliate da una mano lontana. Vengono ad accendere ulteriori fuochi ad un’estate sempre più rovente.
Dal kraut degli Gnod al desert blues tishoumaren della dolce Amaria Hamadalher, precipiteranno scie di frammenti luminosi sotto un cielo sempre più scuro, sfiorando il post punk dei The Sound, contaminato dal folk psichedelico di In Gowan Ring e dal nuovo album appena uscito per Maple Death di Joshua Burkett. E poi un tuffo nella retro minimal di Fym, targata 2003, e nel barbaro incedere techno industriale di Ancient Methods.
Ad un certo punto, si prende un bivio che ci porta ad esplorare nuove tracce sul sentiero del suono, spingendoci tra le radure dipinte da Eric Angelo Bessel nel singolo Pathways, in uscita per l’etichetta di Portland Lore City, e prima, e ancora oltre, con i brani di Mike Cooper e Steinbrüchel.
A spezzare il percorso, un flusso di reminiscenze dub astratte con Studio Pankow, la techno interstellare e cosmica di Jeff Mills, che chiosa con il groove noir minimal e sensuale di Butane e la sua narcosi notturna.
Ed infine si andrà in punta di piedi verso un sogno gentile ed imprevedibile con la sessione finale, sospesa tra ambient elettroacustica e avanguardia minimalista con le tracce di Marta Salogni & Stefano Pilia, Peter Broderick, Martina Berther e Philipp Schlotter, Kjetil Mulelid, William Basinski e, per continuare sempre più giù, o dentro, Ulf Lohmann e la sua Falling Down, prodotta dalla Kompakt nel 2005.

Stelle in picchiata e sole nero, solo per questo mercoledì. State accesi.

Pop Is Dead.

Wednesday, August 12, a new mixtape by NigNigNig: Sleep Dose #175 (Pop Is Dead-Banda Fantasma 007)
Meteorite fragments fall to Earth as if hurled by a distant hand. They come to ignite even more fires in an increasingly scorching summer.
From Gnod’s krautrock to the Tishoumaren desert blues of the sweet Amaria Hamadalher, trails of luminous fragments will plummet beneath an ever-darkening sky, brushing against the post-punk of The Sound, infused with the psychedelic folk of In Gowan Ring and Joshua Burkett’s new album, just released on Maple Death. And then a dive into Fym’s retro-minimal sound from 2003 and the barbaric industrial techno of Ancient Methods.
At a certain point, we take a detour that leads us to explore new trails along the path of sound, pushing us into the clearings painted by Eric Angelo Bessel in the single “Pathways,” set for release on the Portland label Lore City, and before that—and even further still—with tracks by Mike Cooper and Steinbrüchel.
Interrupting the journey is a stream of abstract dub reminiscences with Studio Pankow, the interstellar and cosmic techno of Jeff Mills, which is complemented by the sensual, minimalist noir groove of Butane and its nocturnal narcosis.
And finally, we’ll tiptoe toward a gentle and unpredictable dream with the closing session, suspended between electroacoustic ambient and minimalist avant-garde, featuring tracks by Marta Salogni & Stefano Pilia, Peter Broderick, Martina Berther and Philipp Schlotter, Kjetil Mulelid, William Basinski, and—to continue deeper and deeper down, or inward— Ulf Lohmann and his *Falling Down*, released by Kompakt in 2005.

Plunging stars and a black sun—all on a single Wednesday. Stay tuned. Pop Is Dead.
