Owl Brain Atlas

• Dada music
• Avant-garde
• Experimentalism
• Acousmatic music
• Drone
• Sound collage
• Non-music
• Improvised noise
• Leftfield
• Avant-electronica
• Psycho-acoustic
• Electro-acoustic

Comment: frequently unusual and weird sort of music is called “UFO music” by superficial music listeners. Indeed, J. D. Nelson`s produced album is one of that because of consisting of 23 tracks with a total duration of 26 minutes only (the only exception is XI which last beyond 9 minutes). It does mean an average structure of musical compositions one cannot find from there because all is thoroughly warped and destroyed/deconstructed or subjected to uncompromising algorithms of cutting-edge noises, repeated loops of very short samples and incisive droning here and there. At times it rings like an example of sound collage by using speech samples and electro-acoustic snippets. Those speech samples are being exploited in different ways with different purposes to conjure up different associations in the listener`s head. For instance, at times it chimes like an instance of dada madness, at times it chimes like a time span filled with groans and moans as if reflecting zombies to come nearby to attack a new target. Indeed, every element within it is thoroughly elaborated and channelized despite its overtly fragmented appearance. In fact, J. D. Nelson has produced it for four yeards (2007-2011). In a word, it is a thought-provoking, frantically manipulated electronica/noise mayhem.

Stakka – Alone EP (2004)

Camomille

• IDM
• Glitchtronica
• Experimental electronica
• Minimal techno
• Glitch-hop
• Experimental techno

Comment: this 6-track package is a fabulous mix of crunchy rhythms, synthesised wobbles and glitched-out noises flitting in around by the Polish producer Stakka. Given that the outing had been issued in 2004 this might be a quite ordinary practice to take on minimal techno/IDM rhythms, catchy melody lines and beautiful harmonies by following the influence of such labels as Mille Plateaux, and Morr Music then. However, the best time to test the quality of music is to do it many years after the release date of an issue (it is similar to be done with regard to historical events). Here we come in approximately 11 years later. I have no complains, I have no hints at something which could have done in a better way. All is equilibrated all is measured in a proper way. Furthermore, the Polish producer deviates from the aforementioned formula because of providing a couple of nervous hip-hop/glitch-hop compositions which truly make difference (Mosaik, Lucky People). In a word, get this gem which is a part of the discography of the Montrèal, Quebec, Canada based imprint Camomille which had been led by Vincent Fugère aka Muhr.

Feast of Violet – Botany Charm EP (2010)

Bandcamp

• Avant-rock
• Electronic
• Post-rock
• Abstract
• Experimental rock
• Ambient techno
• Shoegazetronica

Comment: Feast of Violet is the nom de plume of Allen Taylor, the resident from Atlanta, Georgia, USA. This is his first issue which might sound like an ultramodern rock album though it could be considered “rock” in an indirect sense due to some examples coming out from the past. For instance, some shoegaze movement related groups in the beginning of the 90s decided to go beyond the genre-related borders. For instance, Slowdive`s Pygmalion (1995, Creation) was an abstract issue drifting somewhere in between experimental rock and ambient. Seefeel was being a combo whose sounds were channelized into eerie echoes, techno rhythms and abstract noises to kill their predecessors in a softly yet convincing way. Indeed, Botany Charm EP could be considered a child of it. More profoundly, it is replete with spaced-out sounds, multiple layered echoes, noisy yet epic blossoming, concrete and electro-acoustic sounds running out of focus and from one channel to another. Indeed, Taylor`s result is uncompromising because all these sounds are elaborated and spliced masterfully to bring forth the powerful effect ultimately. In a nutshell, the result is mesmerizing.
