Almost Tomorrow is the third full length collaboration album from Section 27 Netlabel founders Tam Ferrans and Andrew Paterson, under their Nonima & theAudiologist guise. This time around the sound is more melodic, and has a definite feeling of a complete and more mature sound than heard on the previous LP's "Dystopian Battle Hymns" and "Ceremony After Amputation". If you are familiar with their individual projects you may even be in for a slight surprise, as the tracks are not as beat driven like before, but are more atmospheric and sound, well... "bigger". In its 75 minutes, Almost Tomorrow takes you on a trip from the digital rain-soaked cavernous scraping in "Thoughtograph", the ethereal beat jittering of "The Colour of Rain", intercepted transmissions from unknown places in "Com-Intercept", "Ganzfeld"s huge yet strangely insect-like beats until everything you knew comes crashing around you in "Almost Tomorrow". Burning pianos, glitched out soundscapes and intricately programmed beatplay, this may well be their best work to date. Consider it the soundtrack to a rainy overcast day, but with just that glimmer of sunshine peeking from the clouds. "Almost Tomorrow" wears its heart on its sleeve.
After the majestic powerhouse of an LP that was [Audissect], Ventolyn & Becotyde delivers another 7 tracks of electronic nourishment. "Neuro Torque" expands upon the ideas of [Audissect], ups the ante, and adds complex rhythms, complete with tasty melodies and added crunch. It also flows like a dream with every track complimenting the next, this EP delivers the goods then takes your face off. Ventolyn & Becotyde and Section 27 are proud to give you "Neuro Torque", now available for free download. Like all good things should be.
Type Recordingsの主宰者のひとりであり、古くからエレクトリック・シーンのアーティストとしても活躍するJohn Xelaによるソロ名義。2003年にUKの老舗エレクトロニカ・レーベル、Neo Ouija(近々復活予定!)からデビュー・アルバム"For Frosty Mornings And Summer Nights"を発表し、2003年にはGabriel Morleyとのプロジェクト、Yasumeとしてドイツの名門エレクトロニカ・レーベル、City Centre Officeからアルバムを発表し、同レーベルからXela名義で2004年に"Tangled Wool"を続けて発表し、繊細なサウンドでエレクトロニカ・シーンでの不動の地位を築く。Typeレーベルを立ち上げ後は、自身のレーベルから作品を重ねると同時に音楽性も変化させ、最近ではアンビエンスや実験的なドローン作品へと進化し、USのフリーフォーク系レーベル、Digitalisなどとも呼応するサウンドへと音楽性を深める。その方向性は自身の音楽性に留まらず、Type Recordingsにも影響し、現在ではフリーフォーク系に限らずポスト-クラシカルなどのシーンも牽引するレーベルへと成長。最近ライブではヴォイスを重ねた妖艶なアンビエンス・スタイルに向っている模様。こちらも初来日です！ http://www.learnwithxela.com
