OCP :: gasto

air density accelerative textures, gasto reminds us that the operador de cabine polivalente is not just there to make an appearance without enduring feature our constantly stalking minds. scrolls, modulations and convolutions, we are still at the dawn of a new day.

Apparent Symmetry :: mourn

under a perfectly wise and brilliant surname, Zach, aka Apparent Symmetry, explores dark variations and provides us with distant and evanescent aerograms - enriched with soundscapes on very high amplitude, that early 2010 production of abstrakt reflections, will continue to draw the outlines of broken or forgotten perspectives far after that sudden oblivion will hit these places ...

DJ Zovi :: frayed rainbow ep

concave cursors, convex sliders, an infinite fully space, a pulse as solution, a saturate frayed rainbow, Harajuku's dream in supersonic fragmentation, trying to look over a monitors wall of sound as an explanation and/or repulsion - concave cursors, convex sliders ...

Humberto Luis Schenone :: soltar… saltar

ces 14 pièces de l'argentin de Buenos Aires sont autant de joyeux drones mutants à l'inspiration expressionniste et d'une turbulente espièglerie neuronale - "soltar...saltar" est un album, certes, prudemment débordant mais surtout, le fruit du travail d'un artiste à l'intelligente agilité - particulièrement contagieux !

Kaneel :: here is a heart so you can remember how much i hate you

quelques traces fraîches de notre passage, vous percevez le témoignage - une fois encore, il est des évidences, comme d'une mélancolie elle aussi passagère, en apparence, à moins que l'on ne cache ce qu'ils appellent, et en dignes spécialistes dématérialisés qu'ils sont, une hypersensibilité aux choses, aux gens, qui sait ? Depuis bien longtemps déjà, Guillaume Richard promène une discrète élégance enrubannée d'un camouflage de bienfaisant faiseur car il ne s'agit pas d'être pris à défaut - "Here is a heart..." confirme une règle, mais laquelle ? cherchez bien - les félins domestiques, tout lilas chinois soient-ils, ont la prunelle microscopique et le rebond précis ; et si le rêve semble parfois amer, il convient d'en apprécier toute la riche et délicate saveur si peu suave - nul doute, à l'heure où l'on vous parle, avec (une apparente) considération, d'autres murmurent, Kaneel, quant à lui, fait partie de cette seconde catégorie - et la décision ne fut pas longue à prendre, chanceux que nous sommes - so you can remember.

Phoenelai :: voices from the fire

nous frôlons la piquante réalité - nous frappons ces abstractions de formes et, non contentes, celles-ci nous répondent dans une crispation, érosion de soupirs, les cloches se patinent, luisantes en filandreuses extensions, puis saturant l'air, soudainement se retractent en un bloc cristallin, éclat - cut up - Voices from the fire ended a long await of Phoenelai since the more than perfect "my deluxe color box" for retinascan - cut up - bruit blanc d'un cadencement, circonstanciel et de haute tenue, ce n'est pas tous les jours, allons allons, surtout restons concentrés, il ne s'agit pas de rater le passage au bord du guet - cut up -
desperate crackles lost in the echo of an abrupt cavity hanging on a vanishing perspective, vanishing and infinite rebounds - cut up - nous appartenons aux désirs tubulaires, silencieuse incurvation - cut up - the amplitude became strictly true, the far rhythm had melted in turn, a whirlwind of vocal textures, screaming reversed - cut up - difficile d'imaginer cette pièce, Phoenelai dévore quelques tourments en activant les bruleurs and the last sigh is for this oscillation perceptible in a cortex convolution, graceful and gentle spiral - final cut, up.

carte blanche to Guillaume Richard :: 03

guest of the project, "carte blanche", Guillaume Richard have been invited to give his personal view about the actual history and relationship between music and home computers ::

" netlabels

If I remember correctly, I think I first read the term "netlabel" in 2001 or so but it's during the year 2002 I came across it more and more.

Most of the time, it was about tracking groups just renaming themselves to netlabels… some even decided to switch to releasing mp3s even when the tunes were composed in soundtrackers… you can't blame them, the urge to release music made with better samples, a music that is actually mastered…for your pleasure only!

Netlabels like Arghprkl, Commie, Jecoute, Kikapu, Disciple of Ageema Blues or Ogredung opened their doors, all bringing their own ideas to the big pattern.

Obviously, the idea behind "netlabels" wasn't only coming from the tracker scene people. There are evidences of websites like "no-type" that were "virtual labels" back in 1998. After all, such kind of ideas weren't so original since a new media was coming.

Still, I strongly believe the final "kick" into what we know as the "netlabel scene" came for sure from the tracker scene.

The "death of the module format", the closing of tracker-related portal websites, irc becoming less and less popular pushed tracker groups, collectives or whatever like Sunlikamelo-d, Tokyo Dawn Records, Thinner, Mono, Kahvi, Chillproductions or youngsters like Camomille to finally take on the netlabel name.

Of course, some groups vanished.

So here it is, more musicians appeared on the internet so new rooms must be built.

While the first netlabels were mostly about electronic, techno or ambient music, new genre-specialized netlabels opened their doors and here we are in 2010, with many netlabels all over the world, spreading on the internet. The common pattern being "one musician, one netlabel" (ok, that was mean).

With all these netlabels flourishing everywhere, no wonder some like Miasmah decided to step aside and become real labels.

Or is it the desire of releasing more selected artists?

What's the meaning of it all since marketing agencies and majors are finally embracing the realm of the Internet and famous bands are now releasing their music for free?"
