Själens ö

Från: Andreas Bertilsson 
Ämne: Själens ö 
Datum: 24 mars 2010 11.27.43 CET 
Till: Komplott, Maximilian M 

hej 
jag har mailat fram och tillbaka med linus ang mastring. hans dator är på service och kommer tillbaks nu i dagarna. vi ska börja med att lyssna igenom allt tillsammans sen kan han själv jobba med att förmastra var kanal för sig. ska försöka ta mig till malmö för det ändamålet så snart som möjligt. efter det arrangerar jag det slutgiltigt med nivåer innan vi mastrar. själva mastringen är gjord på 2-3 dagar. det är förarbetet med alla kanalerna som tar lite tid tror jag. men det enda jag behöver göra är att säga vilken textur vart instrument ska ha så kan han vara mer flexibel och slipper ha mig sittande i studion. jag kommer att bli helt klar med editering denna veckan. när det är klart kan du få speltider för ncb. 

detta är kvar: 
Själens ö - hitta de rätta trummorna. editera klart. - gate på elgitarren/volymautomatisering - hitta icke-sur andreas sång 
Döda vinkeln - fixa slutet - redigera ner fuzzsolot. kortare än nu. best of - redigera rytmgitarren på slutet - redigera solot - prova essing gitarr 
Önskan studsar - redigera klart trummorna.välja ut bästa tagningarna. den som spelar bäst… - noisegate munspel 
Smula i ett hörn - ny sofia ohhhh-sång. ahhhhh istället - välja ut rätt sångtagningar på slutet 
Kniven i hjärtat - stämsång Sofia - fixa mellanpartiet med cello innan 2a parti. korta ner 

Textinfo för omslag (obs, inte korrekta speltider + att nån musiker åker bort ifall jag väljer en annan tagning. gäller i princip bara "döda vinkeln"): 

A 
1. Se som dom darrar, Hedvig Svangren (4:32) 
Andreas Bertilsson: sång, akustisk gitarr, piano, elbas. Sofia Dahlgren: sång. Joel Wästberg: saxofon, trummor. Johanna Ericsson: tvärflöjt

Track from Bertilsson\'s upcoming album promote department store campaign

the Swedish department store Åhlens, have included an instrumental remix from Andreas Bertillsson's upcoming album "Själens Ö" to promote their 2010 spring collection campaign. http://www.ahlens.se

This will be the opening track from the album. Bertilsson is now preparing for the final mastering of the 8 album tracks . Själens Ö will be released later this year and is his fifth album on Komplott, following up 2008's acclaimed "Det fysiska och det psykiska"

Sunlight transformed into a minimalist composition

A solar cell driven composition packaged in a standard CD-jewel case. This release is focusing on the research for a way to actually hear the sun, the exploration of the borders between instrument and phonogram, and the role as a musician or a listener. For the transformation of sunlight into sound Mats Björk have constructed a solar cell powered and controlled tone generator. This is packaged in a standard CD-jewel case to give it the feel and the attributes of a phonogram. Release date 2009 12 21

Connected to a pair of headphones, one can choose to listen to one of the two parts this composition basically consists of. With the lid open, the circuit (that also makes out the musical score) with its oscillators, is carefully tuned for broad daylight to capture the intense piercing and powerful energy, here manifested in the mantra of a clear but uncertain six tone chord. Slowly shifting in pitch as the sun wanders the sky and occasionally hides behind a small cloud, this part of the composition lets you sink in to the relations between the tones themselves and between light and tone.

Walk Like Zombie Man

Very Friendly # 2  is just around the corner!

If you would like to secure a copy this critically acclaimed project by Ronnie Sundin at a very friendly price you can send an email to office@komplott.com with the words "Walk Like Zombie Man" written in the subject line and you will receive a pre-release special offer!

VF#2 will feature two main stories; one with Sundin's recollections of a trip to Spain in 2006 and his meeting with , amongst others, the Spanish super (hero?) composer of silence: Francisco López (who also can be heard - or not - on the included vinyl 7") ; and another which is an attempt to decipher the enigmatic and somewhat  incomprehensible German cult film Decoder from 1983 which features legendary underground heroes such as Genesis P. Orridge, FM Einheit and William S. Burroughs in leading roles and cameos.

VF#2 is scheduled for a December release and is very likely to be the Christmas present of the year!
Read more about Sundin's Very Friendly project here

***

Two additional very limited titles is also scheduled for the end of 2009. At the darkest possible time of the year Komplott chooses to release two sun related titles!

First up is the insanely limited "Sound of the Sun" by Mats Björk which is the culmination of a month's worth of intensive labour and will be available in 24(!)  copies.

Secondly we have the very delayed "Sunspots" LP by Ronnie Sundin which will be available in a bit more consumer friendly edition of 50 copies with hand printed covers. More detailed info on both of these editions will come soon.

Starfield Simulation #34

6 September 2009

Christina Kubisch (Germany)
Rafael Toral (Portugal)
David Stackenäs & Martin Küchen

Opening 16.00
Performances start from 17.00
Supported by Malmö Stad

The site specific sound installation is created by Christina Kubisch from the sound of tuning forks, the piece is entitled Diapason II. Considered a pioneer, Kubisch has been working internationally since 1980 and her work displays an artistic development which is often described as the "synthesis of arts" - the discovery of acoustic space and the dimension of time in the visual arts on the one hand, and a redefinition of relationships between material and form on the other. The work in Scaniaparken deals with the interaction between the architecture, the natural atmosphere and the sound work itself. Interview

The music performance is a Space Study by Rafael Toral (Portugal). Toral has since the late eighties developed a front position within guitar drone music that he recently left in order to develop a new musical language emanating from his own development of new instruments. This music is quiet the opposite in its formal language but still mapping space and time, and here he will perform using the spatial conditions of the site. He has collaborated with Jim O'Rourke, John Zorn, Alvin Lucier, Evan Parker, David Toop, Sonic Youth and many others, having played across Europe and the US, Canada and Japan. The concerts is added with a performance by David Stackenäs (guitar/electronics) and Martin Küchen (reeds) culminating in a unique improvisation by the duo with Rafael Toral.

The final document of Sundin’s more quiet half

Sunspots is an album that was created during the same deep dive into the archives that produced the recent “Seven Year Silence” CD (issued by Fang Bomb) but has a very different personality. This is a much more subdued affair revisiting the same material that was recorded for the mp3 album Solsting and some of the last recordings made at the legendary The Cabin studio as well as other locations during the years 2000-2004  - making this the final document of Sundin’s more quiet half of this decade. What separates this album from his earlier ones from this era is that it is of a somewhat more improvised and fragile nature although the sounds are  still carefully composed. 

After several format changes, this album will finally be released in an exclusive 12” vinyl edition limited to 50 copies only. All the covers will be hand made by Sundin himself making each cover into an individual art work. Each cover will be drawn by hand and there is a possiblilty  to get a personal dedication incorporated into the cover art, just state your name when placing your order.  

Orders are limited to 1 copy per customer and this album will only be avaiable through the Komplott webstore.

Sound of the sun

We are excited to present a new project and a first collaboration with Mats Björk, who has previously released music under the name Kompjotr Eplektrika.

"Solens sång / Sound of the sun" will be released in the new Komplott maginot series, with catalog number maginot10. This edition will be released in 24 copies. We choose to initially not reveal more details about this project but will post more information, images and hopefully video material during the summer. Preliminary release date for "Solens sång / Sound of the sun" is the late summer of 2009.

Själens Ö and Sunspots update

Ronnie Sundins next release on Komplott will be mastered during May and the album format has been changed from digital download to 12" vinyl. Only 50 copies of the Sunspots album will be manufactured and Sundin will mount and illustrate each album sleeve individually.

Andreas Bertilsson's work with his next album, Själens Ö, has been carried out during the spring and continues until mid-summer when it's supposed to proceed with the album mastering. Bertilsson has involved over 14 musicians for the album and he will arrange, play and produce all tracks. Among the musicians involved are Joel Wästberg, Samuel Hällkvist, Sofia Dahlgren, Mattias Rodrick, John Essing, Johanna Ericsson, Åsa Ahlander, Oscar Hallberg among others. The album will be mastered by Linus Sjölund who also worked with Bertilsson on previous Komplott albums.

News 090211
The 7 " vinyl has now been sent to press, The first issue will include two music pieces by Lasse Marhaug, Trondheim Tapes Revisited - Part 1 & 2. Ronnie is completing the final sections and it looks like the first issue of Very Friendly will be ready for April.

News 081210
Very Friendly is a new project by Swedish sound/visual artist Ronnie Sundin that has taken the shape of a comic book! The chapters in Very Friendly will include autobiographical moments from Sundin himself, major and minor historical events from the world of so called electronic and experimental music. Some of these might stick to settled historical facts other might sample and toggle a bit with the truth. On top of that some bizarre puzzles and other incidents from Mr Sundin. Each issue will also be accompanied with a 7" vinyl single that will present the music of some of the musicians and noise makers that are portrayed in the comics and the first one in line will be the 'legendary' noise maniac from Norway; Lasse Marhaug serving up some finely sliced audio memories from his days in Trondheim during the late '90s.

The first issue will be available early 2009....(contents: Trondheim 1998, Varese, Deserts, Kraftwerk, Fear Of A Black Planet, Throbbing Gristle, Cryptic Club 1978, Lasse Marhaug)

New hörspiel by Lundkvist.

In "Borgare och proletärer" ("Bourgeois and Proletarians"), the voices of Agnes, Bruce, Vicki and others are reading the first chapter from Marx's and Engels' "The Manifesto of the Communist Party". The readers are commenting on the subject matter by letting the source material, the swedish translation of the seminal text, clash with their synthetically produced american accents.
