Show 106: Sul Suono workshop

This program is consisted of 2 interwoven parts:
1. Sul Suono workshop on history of experimental music and sound art
Friday-Sunday, 23-25.02.2007, Museum of Contemporary Art, Skopje, Macedonia lecturer: Enrico Glerean (IT/UK)
2. Improv session with Enrico Glerean (e.g.o) (IT/UK) + every kid on speed (MK)
Sunday, 25.02.2007, Open Graphic Studio, Museum of the city of Skopje, Skopje, Macedonia

This series of lectures follow the path of history of music, reaching contemporary lack of boundaries between sound art and music. It is mainly a workshop about sound and how sound can be used as an artistic medium not only in music but also in contemporary art. Lectures will involve the students to reflect on the meaning of sounds and their possible uses. Starting from basics of psychoacoustics and wave theory, the lectures will follow two parallel paths: path of technology and the artistic path. Through various listening they will see – or actually “hear” – how technology have changed the way we are approaching sound, but also how artists have managed to revolutionize sound even more than technology. This is second workshop from the workshop series project Consumer vs. User.

After the workshop on Sunday, 25.02.2007, there was sound performance, improvisation session with Enrico Glerean (e.g.o) (IT/UK) + every kid on speed (MK) + other participants on the workshop
at the Open Graphic Studio, Museum of the city of Skopje.

Show 035: song about a bird by Marko Stoimenov and friends

part one: song about a bird
artist: marko stoimenov and friends

song about a bird was started as experimental film project. its recorded at marko stoimenovs (video artist) apartment in belgrade when he and his friends was having fun after some film festival or after party… and spontaneously started to shoot things that they were doing with a camera. his room is surrounded with dvd surround system so when they were shooting the stuff they were playing, sound was delayed thru the surround system, going in circle and making strange delay effect. they were playing guitar, other strange home prepared instruments and stuff that produces sound as well as singing. a girl from brazil was singing lyrics from some song called about a bird which can be the name of this project. other markos friends were included, like artist vladimir lukash from skopje. you can also hear singing and talking on serbian and macedonian. marko showed me this videos when i was staying at his place in belgrade and i was thinking that it is really interesting also as a sound. exactly there is a story behind this brazilian poem but i cant remember what was it… listen to it and imagine the story. its up to u… as always

Show 007: thinner_sound_scape_mix by Toni Dimitrov

[radia_07] toni dimitrov – thinner_sound_scape_mix (kanal 103)

artist: toni dimitrov
radio station: kanal 103 [www.kanal103.com.mk]
name: thinner_sound_scape_mix
description: dj mix from thinner releases tracks
length: 65:42

at the beginning of the new century when the dub revival sound emerged in the contemporary electronic music and it reached the highest level, thinner was one of the most expanding labels pushing that sound beyond its borders. this trend of fusioning dub sound with contemporary dance styles emerged in berlin around the hard wax record store and labels maurizio, rhythm and sound, chain reaction… creating a new deep techno sound combined with dub. Than the labels like force tracks, ~scape, meteosound… took the idea and continued with it adding a contemporary production. thinner was one of the first net labels that deserves to be on same level like the above mentioned labels.
i have been continuously following their sound from the first release through the period of the fast development, and have been presenting on my radio programs where the constant change and variations of the sound could be easily noticed. they are persistently changing the combinations of styles in mixing dub sound with any other contemporary dance form, for instance: techno, house, clicks’ n’ cuts and even trance and ambient… and of course changing into production, following latest production accomplishments. every release is as fresh as can be, presenting the sounds of the moment. at the end of every year im making lists of the best albums, singles, artists and labels of that year. According to the originality, general achievements in music and approach, thinner was label of the year for 2002.
later thinner also started a sub label named autoplate, a base for more experimental sound excursions defined as ‘music for headphones’. sometimes they are droney or dark ambient, but their sound is also very close to thinner duby ambiences. artists that release on thinner as well often provide their ambient work to autoplate.
i can freely say that it was amazingly hard to choose a selection of one hour of music from my favorite label for the last couple of years… a label from which i like all the stuff… nevertheless it was necessary to choose something for this mix. all these tacks are from the latest thinner releases and one from the autoplate release. they are all under creative common license. the sound varies from ambient and clicks n cuts to regular thinner duby house stuff. use it for after-hours, afterparties, chilling out, for deep dance floors and home parties or just for relaxing and yr own listening pleasure. enjoy!
