Interventions In A Landscape
The four tracks on “Interventions in a landscape” give a voice to the coastal landscape where human intervention is evident. The intervention creates a certain strengthening of contrasts, for instance at the Leihoek between the ever moving sea and the silent firm dyke. Though, at the coastline the weather, the sounds, the light and even the smell are always playing an important role on how someone experiences the coastal landscape. Therefore the tracks do not only reflect on the places mentioned…
Trübhand
Trübhand was summoned in February of 2016. My wife and I were living in north Germany in exile at the time as a result of untenable UK visa policy. As someone who always has a strong reliance on landscape in my work, the absolute flatness of the area was further adding to my homesickness and feelings of isolation. At night, in the alien darkness, I would close my eyes and rend the landscape. I would summon great mountains, pulling up grassy slopes that gave way to jagged cliffs, dragging down th…
Koura
Track 1: Multitrack recording of sustained tones using a ‘Jubel Töne’ zither and additional live electronic effect processing. Track 2: Multitrack recording of sustained tones using a ‘Hohner Organetta’ chord organ and additional live electronic effect processing. Both tracks are part of a composition series based on sustained, multilayered recordings of solo acoustic instruments. The instruments have been performed with extended techniques and additional live electronic “extensions” (looping fe…
Interrogation Of The Crystalline Sublime
"I hear atmospheres, sound shapes, gestural narratives, spectral trajectories, stochastic rhythms and phasic space when I encounter an environment rich in sonic phenomena. But in order to be open to this meta-sensory information, I must first get my ears out of the way. I don't listen with my ears but with an inner sensory apparatus, what Goethe called "organs of perception," that I have developed over the years. Once opened to this world sound becomes something very different—it's as if one cou…
Divergence
“Divergence” explores the tension between space and sound induced by their manipulated representation: sounds alter, calibrate and form space while simultaneously the sound is formed and manipulated by the space it is placed in. The album is based on pure sound sources such as sine waves and white noise. These sounds are physically manipulated and destroyed by the use of tape in order to form pulses, interferences and new wave forms. These manipulations create a divergence between the perception…
Poetic Infomercial Experimentalism
Poetic Infomercial Experimentalism is a musical piece, consisting of two parts, that arose after Tapage (Tijs Ham) and Espoir (Roald van Dillewijn) found that no one else had ever tried to write it before. Since they both had a strong feeling that the world would be better if this music is available for everyone, they agreed to come together in monthly sessions to start their creative work. In each session, they tried a different approach to making music which resulted in a lot of improvisation …
Kluwekracht
Bas van Huizen is a Dutch artist based in Xi'an, China. He mainly uses guitar, voice, found objects and computer to record work that ranges from beat based electronic music under the moniker Basi Goreng to more abstract works under his own name. In 2013 he added another pseudonym to his discography with an experimental noise album by Shoganai. In addition to music and sound art Bas van Huizen is also active as a video artist creating animation, music videos, live visuals, and video installations…
Four Squared Wheel
Modelbau is one of the many names Frans de Waard (Kapotte Muziek, Goem, Wieman, Freiband, etc) uses for his music. Moving Furniture Records is proud to release the first proper CD by this project after many tape releases and a couple of CD-R’s. Frans de Waard in his own words about Four Squared Wheel: "Somewhere in 2012 I had the idea that it was time for that all needed change, having played around with laptops for a decade or so. Actually it was something that was in the air for some time, as …
Time Waves
Orphax is the Amsterdam based musician Sietse van who has been active with music since 1998. Time Waves is his second proper CD release after 34 CD-R, Tape, DVD-R and download releases and various compilation contributions and remixes. "On December 8th I performed at the famous Bimhuis in Amsterdam in a special evening organised by STEIM where I shared the stage with Yannick Franck and Thomas Köner. My performance got recorded and this was the starting point for Time Waves. In addition I did a l…
Atsusaku
Atsusaku is the collaborative output of Gareth Davis (Oiseaux Tempete, Scanner, Elliott Sharp, Machinefabriek etc) and Japanese noise mastermind Masami Akita aka Merzbow. A massive wall of sound over two tracks that moves from the shifting low-end structures and the ricochet of howling reeds to the blistering haze of dense white noise and rapid-fire electronic tones. The title Atsusaku, suggests pressure or mechanical compression and it was from this starting point, the idea of Davis' reed sound…
Dnmf
Sound art titan Rutger "Machinefabriek" Zuydervelt teams up with unpredictable metal-tinged jazz combo Dead Neanderthals here for two lengthy tracks on this new LP. As you would expect from a combination of two such unusual acts, this LP is a perplexing mixture of ambience, noise, rock and jazz. There are two pieces here, on side A is 'The Thing on the Doorstep' and overleaf we've got 'The Colour Out Of Space'. Broadly speaking side A errs towards the dark ambient side of things while side B vee…
