MURCOF & WAGNER | Statea (Infiné) | CD & Vinyl

Appearing unusual at first, this collaboration between Mexican Ambient figurehead Fernando Corona(better known as Murcof) and multi-award winning French classical pianist Vanessa Wagnersurrenders a sublime logic. Both classically trained, their career paths took different trajectories, but converged toward the same enthusiasm when it comes to minimalism. The project was initiated in 2010 at InFine‘s own creative retreat – the Workshop InFiné festival in Normandoux next to Poitiers in France. Six years on from that initial meeting, and many captivating performances later, they’ve crafted a unique studio album that captures the essence of their concert.

JHEREK BISCHOFF | Cistern (Leaf)

Cistern is an album inspired by time Bischoff spent improvising in an empty, two-million-gallon, underground water tank, with a 45-second reverb decay.

HUMAN RAYS | A Tension (Further records)

Human Rays – Stockholm, Sweden producer Robin Smeds Mattila—says that the music on A Tensionwas made during nocturnal sessions in a studio full of mostly cheap analog and digital gear, all in one take. “I kind of let the mood guide me and just go with it,” he says. The result is a gripping fourtrack´suite of emotionally charged minimal ambient that was created quickly but sounds like it was rigorously sweated over for many weeks. After a handful of releases that explored noisy, quasiindustrial techno, Mattila here deviates into a more abstract, melancholy mode with A Tension. His creative process[…]

AUTOMATISME | Momentform Accumulations (Constellation)

Momentform Accumulations compiles much of Jourdain’s most recent and most rhythmically-driven work. We’re very excited to be issuing this as Automatisme’s first official full-length physical album release – and while Jourdain continues to pursue his studies in Art History, his practice as a painter and installation artist, and his work at Saint-Hyacinthe’s excellent Fréquences record store, we also anticipate diverse and fascinating future recordings from Automatisme that will stake out a multi-faceted identity for this viscerally engaged young producer. We also urge interested ears to check out Automatisme on Bandcamp for previous recordings that similarly reveal the project’s multiplicity. Discover AUTOMATISME[…]
