artisit: nakaban title: Der Meteor catalog: CXBL-1003 release: July 2009
*********************************
April 2007, nakaban, the first film creator from noble records released the animation DVD, “poca luce, poco lontatno.” Today, we are happy to announce a new animation piece by the gifted artist, his first piece after approximately two years entitled, “Der Meteor” or “comet” in German.
Known mainly for his paintings, nakaban is an artist also with a successful career as a picture book artist and illustrator. nakaban started exploring the world of film as an extension of his painting career and completed “poca luce, poco lontatno” after approximately four years of editing work. While making “poca luce, poco lontatno”, nakaban also started the creation of another animation piece which he self produced in 2004 (entered in the worldtronics media arts festival in Berlin in 2007.) The fundamental elements of this story were preserved and remade completely over a two year term to create, “Der Meteor.”
Like the original version, the music of “DerMeteor” is produced by takeo toyama, known for his solo work (whose several album jackets have been created by nakaban) and also for guest appearances with artists such as SAKEROCK and EGO-WRAPPIN’. Based on classic and contemporary music, toyama’s music weaves a beautiful ensemble through a combination of acoustic instruments such as the piano, marimba, organ, and cello. The sometimes earthy and warm sounds which at other times transform into beautiful minimal succeed in highlighting the nakaban world, making it stronger, and ever more attractive.
The story takes place in an imaginary medieval mixed modern world where the vegetation is a lush green, nature is abundant and the celestial body evolves a bit faster than here on planet Earth. It is a story of a boy in blue, who follows an endless journey in pursuit of a comet. The several hundred background pictures newly created for this remake introduce an intriguing combination of colors and a unique texture as if the pictures are covered by a thin veil. It has the beauty of tranquil light and the terror of dark shadows that suggest the coming of the end. The surrealistic and beautiful sceneries that go back and forth between dream and reality under this starry night are a perfect reflection of nakaban’s delicate aesthetics. Welcome to the mysterious journey of the comet and the light and dark.
noble label would like to proudly introduce you to its newest talents for this coming spring. “So, I’ll take your hand and…” is the first celebratory album by the trio yarn:moor with sound producer moss, neuma on programming, and vocalist, tao.
yarn:moor is a project launched in 2006 by moss and neuma, also known as the joint operators of Tiltloose label. tao, currently the MC of imaginion and former member of ASTRO joined the two artists to form yarn:moor. Sound producer moss is a member of the up-and-coming dub unit, MANTIS, who has received rave reviews from Rob Smith, the member of the heavyweight champions of Bristol sound, Smith & Mighty. This past January, moss released his first album along with guest vocal Tikiman, MC of RHYTHM & SOUND.
The trio collects sounds of nature such as falling rain and chirping birds, and sounds in our daily lives that can be heard from the bath or kitchen. The comforting and familiar sounds that have been modified through vintage analogue devices and computers are fused with pulsing noise, crisscrossing beats, and tao’s flickering voice that is unlike any rhyme, poetry, or song, and take us into a world of “warmth, kindness, and chilliness.”
Fresh and watery dub. Bouncing ambience. Delicate but dynamic electronica. The music takes on infinite form and yet, it is a wonderous piece of work with a pop element that has no one word to describe exactly how it is. Daringly put, it is a hymn of the universe that elaborately and dynamically depicts the random scenes in our lives as spring goes, summer comes, autumn passes by and winter falls silently upon us. Please take this chance and help yourselves to the rich and inviting “other world” created by yarn:moor.
New album. A sensitive 2009? heat, work, stress, repression, chat in excess lead to nothing good. Baila! Baila! "Diagrama Percutor" the new Ford Proco sonic vehicule.
