[Teaser of the day] Paris Angels - Door To Summer
Mononomoooto - 架空の洞 (2014)
/Electronic, Mood music, Abstract,
Experimentalism/
Comment: I
am a little confused by listening to this handful of tracks. In fact, I feel I
am not able to describe it, to envelope it, to catch it, to pin it. Of course,
I hear lots of sounds pouring out of there but what is the genuine intention of
these sounds for me is quite puzzling to explain. However, I perceive quite
simplistic, amateurish rhythms which are either adorned with subtle drones or
softened chords or half spaced-out synth progressions above thereby providing
powerful and poignant contrast for me. At tmes The point of mine is this is a
quite mysterious issue for me maybe it would be better not to deconstruct it.
Just listen to the sequence and combinations of the sounds represented over
there. The result of it does not dependent on the subjective opinion of a
critic it does live its own life.

CJ Lavoire – The First Of The Year (2007)
/Electronic pop, Tropical pop, Alternative
dance, Poptronica, Electro-indie, Alternative pop/
Comment: CJ Lavoire is the nom de plume of Rome, Italy-based composer Valerio Franchi and the current track The First Of The Year comes out of his self-released issue Jump. Indeed, there is up just one though, lengthy six and half minute track. The issue involves brisk rhythms mixed up with some sonic effects and a guitar sustained part. All these elements are subordinated to the catchy melody line which is soft and slightly exotic and sultry on its own. The composition is the second one in the discography of Bad Panda Records. In a nutshell, are you ready to enjoy a solid pop ditty?

Radikal Satan - El Incendio Que Se Llevó A La Ciudad (2012)
/Dark pop, Neoclassical, Gothic pop, Musique
concrète, Leftfield, Art pop, Experimental pop, Darkwave, Tango, Avant-pop/
Comment:
Radikal Satan is the project of César Amarante, and Mauricio Amarante whose
11-track issue reflects upon their cultural backdrops being related to
Argentina, France, and New York. The bunch has been managed in a way to bring
forth elaborate, dark-hued pop songs with many threads of tango twists, gothic
synthesised upper templates, vivid guitar chords, and Parisian street sounds based
on lofty accordion sounds. At times these notches of the sonic backbone are
variegated with mixed warped spoken word snippets and concrete sounds (for
instance, Exilio en el Exilio) or songs
are saturated with excruciated, psychotic vocal deliveries. And those
half-orchestrated noises and ominous progressions surfacing here and there used
to hit your conscious mind. Behind those visible figures you could perceive
shades coming out from the other side and on the other side it arouses your brain
to cast aside the control over your unconscious mind. However, the issue is
saturated with more elements than discovered above. Yesterday I reviewed
Faerùn`s album The Night (2013, Test
Tube) which provides a quite similar approach both ideologically and sonically because
of recruiting an avant-garde sonic palette to exert it for creating music in
conjunction with pop songs formulas. Similarly, both albums are murkily
full-fledged yet somehow recognizable and intimate ones. In a word, the output
is both intimidating and mesmerizing. Call me morbid, call me pale but I feel myself
totally satisfied.
