Flieg Vogel Fliege
"Having arrived in austria following a protracted lean period, Roedelius finally had the chance to work in a studio which was not only well equipped, but was also run by a kindred spirit sound engineer. The favourable working conditions, a myriad of new impressions and, by no means least, his personal happiness, saw roedelius and his music flourish. this is discernable on "Flieg vogel fliege", even if only some of the music was created in his new adopted home. if complete insouciance, the accep…

There
Engrossing debut album from Iranian sound artist, Pouya Ehsaei, sublimating samples of traditional Iranian music to “reveal the rage hidden beneath its melancholia.” There was produced in 2010, using fractured and brutally processed instrumentation indigenous to Iran to isolate a palpable feeling of tension articulated with a timbre unique to the artist’s background. In the course of its six pieces we perceive a stark and grinding sadness from his aerated arrangements, gleaning elusive emotions …

Delicate paths - music for Sho
Music for shô by Sarah Peebles with Evan Parker Nilan Perera Suba Sankaran. 'In the 80s, while I was studying music composition in Japan, I was intrigued by the seemingly esoteric role some traditional musics played in contemporary Japanese society. I was given the opportunity to study the shô-the mouth-organ used in gagaku, ancient Japanese court orchestral music and dances-at a small Tokyo shrine, Sendagaya Ward's Hatonomori Hachiman Jinja. Via this shrine I became familiar with basic g…
Everything was forever, until it was no more
The record is an attempt to document a sound installation by Konrad Smoleski presented in at the Polish Pavillion at the 55th Venice Biennale 2013. The sound sculpture is based primarily on the manipulation of the tolling of a bell. Through the process of transforming this familiar tone of traditional bells, Smole ski also changes its meaning: a sound that evokes a variety of associations is given an abstract frequency that seems devoid of connotations. Not only does the artist free the sound fr…

Blaster
restocked! New York-based conceptual artist James Hoff returns to PAN with Blaster, a document of his explorations of computer viruses as agents within the composition process. Specifically, Hoff used the Blaster virus to infect 808 beats and then utilized the mutated results as building blocks for seven new compositions. Hoff's interest in computer viruses lies in their ability to self-distribute through (and ultimately disrupt) networks of communication and Hoff's agency as an artist ce…
