Extremely pleased to say that next in the quiet details series, with an interpretation of immense breadth, is the eminent Swedish producer, Andreas Tilliander, with Lava.

Andreas has been established in the highest echelons of electronica since the late nineties – amassing a vast discography across many leading labels and multiple aliases. Wide-ranging productions under his own name, Morika, TM404, Rechord and many more – on the likes of Kontra Musik, Mille Plateaux, Raster-Noton, Acid Test and his own Repeatle – has proven him time and again to be one of the most important and influential artists of recent years. Essential live performances have served to enforce this legacy.

Lava is Andreas Tilliander at his finest – endlessly experimental and wildly creative expressions, shaped into a sonic excursion of mind-expanding distinction.

As he says, this is “An exploration of southern Sweden – light, memory, and open landscapes.” And we can feel this from the very first second.

Deeply atmospheric from the start, submerged locational recordings intertwine with gradually evolving synths – creating an introduction that lays out the beginning of the path into this beautifully constructed album.

Trademark acidic pulses emerge through the clouds as the music continues on unabated, and from there we’re led by the hand through the emotions Andreas elicits from his surroundings.

His mastery of his machines is total – analogue richness, digital grunge – recordings from many sources manipulated into fascinating collages – all meld into a cohesive whole by the immense creative vision he possesses.

At times vivid and luminescent, and others dark and meditative – always profoundly reflective – this is an album of vast contemplation, perfectly executed by a master of his form.

As Andreas says:

Recorded primarily with samplers, some shitty synthesizers, field recordings from Hässleholm, old VHS tapes, and the quiet electricity of Skåne.

Special thanks to the fields and roads of Vinslöv, Vankiva, and Hässleholm. To the shores of Åhusfältet and the streets that shaped everything. Thank you for the crystal clarity, the glow, the light, and the stillness.

Street Wise. Vinslöv. Vankiva. Hässleholm.

I feel crystal clear.

Huge thanks to Andreas, a stunning addition to the series.

The artwork was made as always influenced by the music and idea behind the album – originating from a photo from Andreas which was then captured with analogue photography and processed here at quiet details studios.

As usual, the album is presented on the physical edition, a custom six-panel digipack with a separate fine art print too.

The CD also has a special long-form continuous mix of the album, unique and representing the music in its purest form.

Jarl – Nerve Cell Threads Electronics (Zoharum)

Label Description:

We are glad to present the new album of Jarl titled „Nerve Cell Threads Electronics”. The Swedish musician refers to the themes that accompanied the creation of the trilogy on the brain and the nervous system, making the new publication an informal, fourth part of the series in which he touched on the topics of neurotransmitters, receptors and synapses. The album contains four tracks called „Electrical Impulse 1 – 4”, filling nearly 60 minutes. This time the tracks has a little darker tone/sound, but still psychedelic, melodic, restrained and sometimes intense with percussive layers and sequencer based with thick analogue sounds that slowly changes into other sounds.
The album is available on CD in a six-panel digipack, on cassette and in digital format.
 

Composed, recorded and mixed by Erik Jarl.

Slomo – Zen and Zennor (Trilithon Records)

a3032809260_10

Label Description:

Electric drone stalwarts Slomo return with only their fifth album in 20 years, “Zen and Zennor”; their sonic palette refreshed, their focus again tuned to the spectral otherness of Land’s End. The cover star – Zennor Quoit – is a colossal megalithic structure to be found on moorland above the village of Zennor, 4.5 miles to the west of St Ives.

Primitive melodies and arcane motifs are buffeted by drifting analogue oscillators on lead track ‘Zen and Zennor’, compressing into thick saturated drones before taking a sublime turn into familiar subterranean territory. ‘Zennor Diode’ crackles into manifestation above the moorland, cautioning against – or perhaps encouraging – experiments with exposed electrics in the Cornish mizzle. Complete removal of self (and band) is provided with circuit-closing track ‘Antechamber’, dissolving the Zennor’d-out participants into the hum of the Hummadruz*.

The duo continues to be informed by their work elsewhere; Chris (“Holy”) McGrail recently contributed to Julian Cope’s Dope and Queen Elizabeth projects, while Howard Marsden co-runs Hebden Bridge’s already-legendary Ambient Bowling Club, where experimental music mixes with environmental sounds, low chatter and the soft clank of bowls.

“Zen and Zennor” wraps Slomo’s only constant – immense, eventual catharsis – in a freshness and immediacy that could perhaps suggest a quickening of their notoriously glacial pace. Time will tell.

*Hummadruz refers to a mysterious, low-frequency hum or droning sound, often said to be heard around the ancient sites of Land’s End.

Various Artists – paisajes en tundra

a3851865580_10

Label Description:

(ENG)

Glacier retreat, while a natural phenomenon in some cases, has been exacerbated by various human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation and intensive agriculture. The accelerated melting of ice leads to a series of catastrophic consequences and irreversible effects that are impacting both natural ecosystems and human life.

This album was created as an initiative to raise awareness of this phenomenon, as well as to raise funds to support Glaciares Chilenos (www.glaciareschilenos.org), a Chilean NGO founded with the aim of educating and protecting the more than 26 thousand glaciers located in the national territory, through the development of educational programs and visibility of scientific content on glaciers.

In keeping the editorial line of the previous benefit compilation “migraciones”, Bahía Mansa decides to expand the previous sound palette and invites 10 other global artists to participate in this collaborative instance as part of the annual support for ecological causes.

All proceeds will be donated directly to Glaciares Chilenos (NGO).

(SPA)

El retroceso de los glaciares, si bien es un fenómeno natural en algunos casos, se ha visto exacerbado por varias actividades humanas como quema de combustibles fósiles, deforestación y agricultura intensiva. Los hielos comienzan a derretirse más rápidamente, lo que conlleva a una serie de consecuencias catastróficas y efectos irreversibles que están afectando la vida natural y humana.

Este álbum nace como iniciativa para concientizar de este fenómeno, así también como para reunir fondos y donar a Glaciares Chilenos (www.glaciareschilenos.org), ONG chilena fundado con el objeto de educar y proteger los más de 26 mil glaciares ubicados en el territorio nacional, a través del desarrollo de programas educativos y visibilización de contenido científico sobre glaciares.

En esta línea, y continuando en la línea editorial del anterior compilado a beneficio “migraciones”, bahía mansa decide ampliar la paleta sonora anterior e invita a otros 10 artistas globales a participar en esta instancia colaborativa como parte del apoyo anual a causas ecológicas.

Todo lo donado va en directo beneficio de Glaciares Chilenos (ONG).

Thank you infinitely to all the artists who contributed their talents and passion to this project, making it possible to extend this important message!
