Anywave: Post California – Soleil of Persian Square

Monomane — Sat, 27 Nov 2021 07:00:41 +0000

Soleil of Persian Square is Post California’s response to an invitation by Hannah Darabi to create a sound extension to her book project, inspired by pop music from Tehrangeles – scene of the Iranian diaspora in Los Angeles.
 
Taking hold of this raw sound material drawn from cassettes and video clips, Post California delivers a fantasized vision of Los Angeles (a mixture of intensity and emptiness that can be found in Richard Kelly’s “Southland Tales”) crossed by sound elements of Iranian pop music sung in Persian.
 
The result is a music that is both recomposed and deteriorated, from which fragments of Tehrangelesi sound and codes of Western pop-song emerge, navigating the borders of ambient, collage and post punk.

Anywave: Wavecore 6

Monomane — Wed, 20 Feb 2019 07:00:33 +0000

Sixth and final volume of our compilation series: a mix of deviant pop-tuned songs, sick homemade music and abstract/visual electronics.

Hence, Wavecore 6 comes not only with 1, but 2 Cds including 28 tracks by artists from 15 countries (Albania, Australia, Canada, Croatia, France, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Iran, Italy, Russia, Spain, Sweden, UK, USA).

Both dics are linked by the same tensed atmosphere, though with different approaches: while disc 1 is a collection of post-punk and bedroom electronic items, disc 2 travels upon a broad stream of both blissful ethereal and dark instrumental tracks.

Anywave: Bad News from Cosmos – Minn Sjó

Monomane — Mon, 02 Jan 2017 07:00:56 +0000

Bad News from Cosmos is a Ukrainian duo (Andrii Hrachov and Iryna Bodnar), active since 2010. Duo is mostly focused on creating songs and freeform improvisations narrating of love and death.

“We are devotees of mathematical polyphonies, sequences and improvisations based on pure feeling and dark romantic world vision. We fuel our passion for composing by the inspiration we get from vibrant and harsh sound textures, as well as from the flexibility of the music piece form. We search our style in the area where classical composition form and vitalizing freedom of avant-approach are intercrossed. An eternal experiment is the way we’ve chosen to lead us to what we call a musical perfection.”
