Tag: WAVES FROM

It’s difficult to talk about sound. When we close our eyes and listen, there are no boundaries and as such, what we feel can often not be described with the words we know. Our feelings are unique & different.

There is no word or genre that unites the artists of the label. Putting a word on a style, in order to classify, takes part of the magic away. Instead, what unites us is our passion for sound, dancing with friends and growing together.

Continuing with this same philosophy we present our show WAVES FROM and our 14th episode from Arigto.

Words from the artist about the set, “Ryūichi Sakamoto was the only artist or even the only person which we could call our role model for many years. Not only his music but also his ideas, character, and humanitarianism were quite inspiring. In this mix, we collected some of our favorite Sakamoto tracks and closed the mix with one of our favorite Bach pieces, which is also part of the playlist which Sakamoto prepared for his own funeral.

Music is still very fun to us, but with the passing of Sakamoto and Jóhannsson, two important artists are missing. Both of them used to push music into new and interesting directions, without losing any emotional expression and heart.”

Hope you enjoy this journey through sound waves and wishing you much love,

Continuing with this same philosophy we present our show WAVES FROM and our thirteenth episode from Quiver.  We first listened on a great platform called Zenevloed.  His EP Artificial Tranquility took form as an abstract piece composed of contrasting yet recognisable pieces of textures and shredded materials. The sounds were powerful, delicate, among other things and of course, memorable. Leaving the set in the words of the artist,

“This mix is a gloomy collection of tracks that have a certain uncanny or dream-logic-like quality to them. I wanted this mix to feel like a slow-mo scroll through various spaces, distant voices, and intangible sounds.”

Continuing with this same philosophy we present our show WAVES FROM and our twelfth episode from Mads Kinnerup. We first discovered Mads through a label called No Technique out of Copenhagen from which we have discovered many great artists.  The music we received enlightened us on a different approach to music and the way it is created. Instead of using many voices, you try to get the most you can from using one or two. This really resonated with us and so we asked Mads back here to show us some of his musical tastes. So when we asked him about how he was feeling about music currently, it was no surprise that he said,

“I am interested in minimal music that moves very slowly with few harmonic movements and an emphasis on textural motions.”
