...y aquí está el recopi de otoño, coincidiendo con el equinoccio, y con octubre a la vuelta de la esquina. snif. la lista de discos pendientes sigue aumentando y aumentando, y eso que yo hago esfuerzos verdaderos por disminuirla. con tanta música bonita desbordante es imposible resumir y ser concisa, y al final como siempre me salen estos recopis eternos. en 'autumn, again' hay descubrimientos que me hacía mucha ilusión compartir como 'el devenir de las piedras' de Claudio Caldini, una cinta de cassette de 1989 (hyades arts, ñam ñam) que tanto me recuerda a Bill Doob y a todo lo relacionado con Inspired School of Astral Music. ha sido imposible encontrarla pero, como el que busca siempre halla, al final he aquí un trocito de la cara a. lo mismo que 'miroitements' de Costin Miereanu, otra rareza deliciosa de 1981. hay una canción de árbore para la que no tengo palabras, se llama 'lúa' y son field recordings en estado puro, pajaritos, el océano atlántico y ese toque de guitarra tan suyo que reconocería a mil millones de kilómetros de distancia. amor eterno a 'celestial' de An Bene & Pierre Lambow, un tesoro de 1983 que también me recuerda a Celestrial Stairway (la obsesión va en aumento...). y siempre, siempre, nuevas y emocionantes canciones de Günter Schlienz, x.y.r. (preciosísimo adelanto de 'el dorado' que Vladimir quiso compartir con nosotros), Former Selves, Miaux y muy especialmente 'balcony on the outer space' de Portopia '81, la canción más bonita del mundo. gracias como siempre a las recomendaciones aisladas, a los mixtapes (m.m. peres se ha ganado el cielo por este pequeño homenaje a la música de órgano de los años treinta)... y a Toys and Techniques, uno de esos blogs que no quisiera que desapareciera nunca. la guinda: en pocos días subiremos un compilado sólo de chicas, mano a mano con la caracola (me pía un pajarito que la blogosfera está triste sin luzzzalig...). ¡chin chin!

madalyn merkey


"Madalyn Merkey’s music is a beautiful combination of the organic and the electronic. Listening to this tape brings to mind some earlier electronic experiments. There’s an obvious grit to the album, shown in the warmth of the sound. Digital is ignored to a large degree. Calling it a personal album would be accurate as Merkey uses her own voice as source material in the compositions. Merkey’s music exists in a dream-like state completely sedated. she's the Wizard of Oz of her environment making the sound bigger more powerful and lovelier than is humanly possible. Her work combines the best of the experimental with the emotional." beach sloth 


"Synthetic sounds fill the air in Madalyn Merkey's debut album of bizarre and beautiful phase vocoder experiments. Using harmonic voice processing, analog synthesis, and stereo panning, Merkey addresses the Centaurs of her imagination. Influenced by celestial bodies, artificial intelligence, and opera, the journey is a mysterious meshing of mechanical fibers and polymorphic organic exchanges. Highly emotional, yet non-emotional at the same time, the alternating energy is a truly lovely work, warm, and lifting experience." insound  


Madalyn Merkey lanzando señales desde una galaxia lejana. el sello, el título, la portada. viva la musicala por descubrimientos tardíos como éste o el inconmensurable Josh Burke (siempre ahí la Filomena), cintas que no deberían pasar nunca desapercibidas y que son para la eternidad, aunque a veces su salida a la luz del día sea lenta y lleve su tiempo. electrónica orgánica, brumosa, alucinógena, sumergida, de bucles y collages, de producción mínima, que vuela a la altura de Obsidian Pond, Kane Pour o Bandicoot Trail.
