surreal scapes

Interference is an exploratory descent into the darker, more mysterious corners of the mind by means of processed instrumentals, field recordings and synthetically generated ambience.
Like a puzzle, it incorporates fragments of recordings, such as the magnificent cello/flute improvisation by Ilia Saveliev and Bogdan Dullsky, Idle Sunder’s “fieldscape” experiments, Cisfinitum’s marvelous drones with enchanting vocals by Anzhel Hutopia, and more, *much* more!Mixed together into a single 72 minute piece, this one should have you hooked until the end.

Cover art was created by Geoffrey Lillemon / Oculart.

Bogdan Dullsky – flute, electronics, field recordings
Evgeny Voronovsky – drones, loops, sound construction
Idle Sunder – electronics, field recordings, mixing / mastering
Ilia Saveliev – cello
Anzhel Hutopia – vocal noise

In Memoriam Andrey Tarkovsky by Various Artists

In the entire history of cinema there has never been a director, who has made such a dramatic stand for the human spirit as he did. Today, when cinema seems to have drowned in a sea of glamorized triviality, when human relationships on screen have been reduced to sexual intrigue or sloppy sentimentality, and baseness rules the day – this man appears as a lone warrior standing in the midst of this cinematic catastrophe, holding up the banner for human spirituality.The Genius of modern Russian cinema – hailed by Ingmar Bergman as “the most important director of our time” – died an exile in Paris in December 1986.

After 22 years, passed from that year we decided to ask Kim Cascone, Astro, Violet, 833-45, Kenneth Kirschner, Astrowind, Pink Twins, Alva Noto, Nobukazu Takemura and Nikita Golyshev what do they think about Tarkovsky’s phenomenon.

My version of reality - KZ Mauthausen – Den Schornstein

Freedom Reflex | Second

turn on repeat and enjoy $)

si assiste ad un crash bizzarro, che visto dalla nostra angolazione, marcia ed occidentale, suscita singolari accostamenti, nell’improbabile tentativo di render l’idea (un’idea che sia una…).

Flautista e polistrumentista (flauto traverso, piano Rhodes, sequencers, samplers, percussioni acustiche e midi, basso e chitarra elettrici), Dullsky, muove un percorso, che ingloba e digerisce, frammenti etnici, ambient di un’altra epoca, e jazz, in porzioni fusion, e lounge futuribile.
Le cinque lunghe composizioni di “Freedom Reflex (One)”, contengono interventi da parte di: Artem Pustovit, Barandash Karandashich, Alexander Tankeev, Ray Kondrashov, Olga Kondrashov, Oleg Apostol e Jana.
Non perfetto, per nulla, in alcuni passaggi eccessivo, eppure, (sarà per via della provenienza atipica) zampilla fresco e stimolante alle nostre orecchie, nel suo approccio stilistico, che più di un’insidia nasconde (per se stesso, e gli altri…).
Come rinchiudere nella stessa stanza virtuale, il compianto Jorge Reyes e Steve Roach, le composizioni di Artemiev per Tarkovskij, gli ambienti risuonanti di Paul Schütze, una certa angolazione nello sguardo, che avevamo riscontrato negli immensi ZGA (qualcuno li ricorda?…), le catastrofi, pianistico/percussive di Cecil Taylor, e la visione compositiva di Xenakis.
Reso l’idea?
Manco un poco credo, eppure, i risucchi e gli strappi, le sgroppate a rotta di collo, le pause, gli scarti improvvisi e le intrusioni digitali, ci parlano di puro talento.
Da affinare, da preservare, da giocare semmai in sottrazione (potrebbe tramutarsi in incubo vero altrimenti…).
In poche parole, da annusare e seguire con attenzione (in tutti i sensi…).

Setola Di Maiale  -  ‘Freedom Reflex (One)’

Recensore: Marco Carcasi

Dos años y medio después de la publicación del primer volumen de la serie, el año nuevo trajo la última entrega de la trilogía Psygnosis (se trata en realidad del segundo volumen y de esta manera está numerado), creada por el colectivo anónimo Idle Sunder en colaboración con el multiinstrumentista ruso Bogdan Dullsky (Quest.Room.Project) y publicada en su totalidad por el excelente netlabel belga Entity.

Algo más de dos horas y media para disfrutar de la enorme creatividad de este grupo y su bella e hipnótica abstracción musical.

«Famous russian experimentalist Bogdan Dullsky – responsible for the Quest Room Project – returns to test tube with a mixed-media release, to much of my own pleasure as I’m a big fan of his work. For this ‘Freedom Reflex | Second’ he invited some friends to collaborate, namely Barandash (the visual artist who created the amazing images that accompany this work); Nikita Golyshev (founder and curator of netlabel Musica Excentrica and musician) on samplers and synthesizers; Olliver Wichman (founder and curator of netlabel Petcord and musician) on piano, and also Ray Kondrashov on acoustic and midi percussions.

On this follow-up of a previous work, Bogdan and friends create a fantastic work of various levels in complexity, rendering the listener numb and dazzled. ‘Freedom Reflex | Second’ is, simply put, an audio-visual materialization of what life could have been in a concentration camp (one like KZ Mauthausen). Life on the edge, full of horrors, misfortune, sadness and agony, but also a life. What is life when you know it will eventually end, sooner than you think? What if you had to enjoy in the best possible way even knowing you would be eventually tortured and executed? What would fill your mind? What kind of pleasure would you try to take from those moments? What would you dream? Would you dream about Death? Despair? Freedom?

There are many answers to these questions. One possible answer is in ‘Freedom Reflex | Second’. Listen to it, and watch the images closely» – Pedro Leitão

«One year ago I had a terrible dream. Both simultaneously grandiose and beautiful. The whole year I have spent attempting to reproduce landscapes of the spiritual world behind the looking glass, in a sound…

Perhaps. Which that was possible. You check up…

It would be desirable that we have stayed near to prisoners of concentration camp Mauthausen and other camps of death. In what time and in what place they would not be… Can not listen to this album… Simply pray for, that some things. Never repeated… Though… What am I to speak for it? It will repeat again and again… I have impudence pretentiously to trust in a good victory :)

Take care…» – Bogdan Dullsky

“Sharp dualism – opposition of spirit and matter”

Where are we? Between spirit and matter? I have stepped aboard the ship “Idle Sunder” to learn where we are… Anyway, I very much hoped for it. I was affably met by the captain and we have departed on this long trip named “Psygnosis”.

Two years have passed… Now I understand… That it’s not a children’s game… Is it a sect? Perhaps ;)…
All who participates in the project is united through one purpose… To learn the truth tensely and steadfastly peering through “dim bottle glass”…
To learn the world through feelings (music)? It is sometimes sick, sometimes it ennobles.
If you have dared to listen to it, keep in mind… that while it possesses a lot of pleasure, it also carries a lot of tears… a lot of disappointments… And, of course, eternal High… One on all… It is dominant… It seems to me, that I have spent in it one thousand years… Also it is ready to spend eternity in.
We became brothers in arms, have removed masks, have thrown it out to hell…. This world does not see itself without these attributes.
Join, by our ship there are places… It’ll only last for a short while.
“Immemorial quest between spirit and matter, eternal trip” is Psygnosis.

FREEDOM REFLEX (ONE) 

Bogdan Dullsky è nato in Siberia, vicino al lago Baikal. In seguito si è trasferito in Ucraina, Kiev, Odessa. Quando il padre, un pilota militare, era in guerra in Afghanistan ha vissuto nuovamente in Siberia in un villaggio cosacco. Poi in Polonia per un periodo di sei anni, poi in Georgia per circa un anno, poi ancora a Mosca. Ora vive in Moldavia. Bogdan non vive in un luogo per più di 3-4 anni, fin dall’infanzia, perchè con il padre ha viaggiato in guarnigioni militari, in tutto il mondo. Bogdan è un flautista eccezionale e polistrumentista. Nella musica di questo album coesistono moltissimi suoni strumentali e concreti che vanno e vengono continuamente, creando movimento e dinamicità uniche. Morfologia di un pensiero. In questo album partecipano, in qualità di ospiti, vari musicisti: Artem Pustovit, Barandash Karandashich, Alexander Tankeev, Ray Kondrashov, Olga Kondrashov, Oleg Apostol and Jana. Per maggiori informazioni: http://www.dullsky.net e http://www.myspace.com/bogdandullsky. Un progetto a suo nome è Quest.Room.Project (www.lastfm.it/music/Quest.Room.Project) con il quale ha partecipato alla compilation “Various Artists – Tribute to Iannis Xenakis”; un album completo a nome Quest.Room.Project è scaricabile attraverso la netlabel Test Tube.

Nikita Golyshev, known as CD-R, and Bogdan Dullsky (Quest.Room.Project) met virtually and have recorded an album. First, they share music file sources in the net, and then processed with real-time sound recordings through peer-to-peer connection.

The result is a collage of acoustic and digital pieces, gathered in one snowfall.

Bogdan Dullsky (QRP) explores with “Room Number” in great depth the borders of abstraction and absurdity. He renders a world consisting of the strangest harmonics, dancing around a variety of instruments (such as flute and bass guitar) which he plays very proficiently.
Skillfully designed sounds are excessively displayed and the sheer number of them alone will never leave you bored.
Count in the extraordinary artwork from Russian visual artist “Barandash” and you know you’re heading towards a unique listening experience.

Having worked closely with Bogdan Dullsky (Quest.Room.Project – see NTT043) on this 1st album of the Psygnosis trilogy, Idle Sunder has transcended the space drone boundaries they were once confined to, to visit a universe of remarkably visual minimal rhythms and manipulated instruments/recordings.
All of the tracks contain a great diversity in both sound and style, while retaining a quite conceptual atmosphere which holds ground in between existential and psychological ideas that are sure to be elaborated on throughout the remainder of this project.
A word of thanks goes out to all the people that have made a contribution in one form or another:
levinj, Suonho, djgriffin, NoiseCollector, Melack and Bram at Freesound for sound sources, Winne Clement for the flute in track 8 and once again Christian Jehle for the nice cover art.
