Pepite 5 - Listening to retina.it
Season One
Some call it sound-art, new music, research sounds, acoustic experimentations or liminal sounds, we just call them Pepite, golden nuggets: tips on sound research, precious bits of our programming. Sounds we select and highlight from our freefrom streaming.
Our weekly nuggets are:
Fifth color by Adam Michalak
Adam Michalak is a polish musician who is doing deep ambient from some time, using a blend of synthesized sounds and field recordings. Seven Colors is a gentle collection of very beautiful pieces that Michalak composed during a period of a year and a half, until May 2009. Michalak uses dusty vinyl, bells and whistles, electromagnetic buzz, echoing keyboards, drones, silence and many other sound textures to build immense walls of amazing ambient music.
Diapason by Fatima Miranda
Miranda is one of the leading figure and voice in the contemporary Spanish music scene. Diapason is taken from the retrospective album Audition Records dedicated to her and to her career from 1992 to 2010. Moving and intense, this album is a real gift.
A model for nonspherical collapse
Soon available online, the entire project by Lino Monaco and Nicola Buono - aka retina.it - is dedicated to the Universe’s randomness.
