MARY OCHER ME "PULSE": NJE RITEM MBYTES NE ZEMREN E UNDERGROUND-IT TE BERLINIT

Nje force eksperimentale e skenes underground ne Berlin! Cfare doni me shume? 

Mary Ocher nuk eshte thjesht nje artiste; eshte nje zeshkruese e patrembur qe perdor muziken si mjet proteste, arti vizual dhe filozofie. Kinematike, e papermbajtur dhe jashte çdo kornize pop.

Gjurma "Pulse" eshte nje nga ato krijime ku tensioni ndihet ne çdo sekonde. Aty baset, ritmet minimale dhe zeri i saj avant-garde perzihen ne nje lloj pulsi mbytes, ku ajri behet gati i pamundur per t'u marre fryme, sepse arti i saj nuk kerkon te te ngushelloje, por te te zgjoje.

Ne "Pulse", Mary Ocher nderton nje atmosfere hipnotike e te zymte. Tingujt industriale, daullet obsesive dhe vokalet e saj te papersetritshme krijojne nje ambient ku çdo goditje ndihet si rrahje zemre ne mes te nje kaosi politik e shoqeror.

Kjo nuk eshte muzike pasive per sfond; eshte nje eksperiment zanor qe te terheq brenda ne pyetjet e saj te thella mbi ekzistencen, kontrollin dhe lirine.

#88 LO-FANG

This particular song ('#88') reminds me that we are in the middle of a kind of post-James Blake, Bon Iver or Perfume Genius voice infinity.

Smooth and fluid instrumentalization makes this music sound like folktronics (The Books?), but it goes far away from being labeled or musicaly-defined. And we all agree about this! 

Matthew Hemerlein, the man/voice behind Lo-Fang, is classically trained in violin, cello, bass, piano and guitar, performing all the instruments on his debut album, Blue Film (2014).
Highly detailed, the album has roots in electronic, r'and'b, classical orchestration, and folk music, cast through a pop prism.

 

 

 

RICKY EAT ACID - SKETCHES (2012)

'I’ve always loved ambient and drone music and this summer I really became obsessed with the idea of music as a means of evoking place, time, or feeling instead of telling some kind of narrative. It’s the same way I like to approach photography, actually. I like photos that have a strong sense of composition, but it’s easy to miss because the focus is more on texture or tone which I guess leads to the photos I used for the project...'

'I feel like music should be, above all, visual. It doesn’t have to be, of course, but the music I personally connect with is very visual to me. I imagine myself listening to it at a specific time, or in a specific place, whether or not that time or place is real, so I’ve always loved writing songs that encapsulate certain places or moments in time for me. Sometimes I’ll go out exploring just to get inspiration for a song...'
