We produced a CD together, The Ontology of Noise in Feb 2009, in which one track, particularly, stood out as being perfect for a vinyl edition. In the same timeframe, the stream of releases by Eleh on Important Records attracted our attention. These homages to La Monte Young, Pauline Oliveros and Charlemagne Palestine, vinyl-only limited editions stunned us with their acuity and passion for detail… There was something other in the sound. Eleh, also, is an artist who prefers the work to speak for itself, and has other ideas about noise. The digital is questioned by a commitment to a working practice based around analogue tone-generators and letterpress printed covers. The Important Records/Taiga releases are now sought after with a passion by anyone who recognises something truly special occuring. On this new record, Eleh develops the waveforms that the Important Records series started. The split vinyl format is a great meeting point for this idea of digital persona and analogue privacy. The effect, we hope, is for the vinyl to represent a digital question… That this LP summons up a universal sound and an intimate sphere of operations… Which is of course a continuing dilemma. Here is a great opportunity to hear Eleh and Nana April Jun at their finest.

The One Substance 2. Process Philosophy 3. Space-Time Continuum 4. Semantic Shift 5. Sun Wind Darkness Eye Mastered by Denis Blackham The Ontology of Noise researches the dark associations of post-black metal. No traditional instruments are used on the album and all techniques are digital in their application. There are almost no arrangements or layers, but the pieces consist of single streams which change intuitively. This makes The Ontology of Noise a concrete journey through an abstract language evolving around light and darkness, nature and artificiality, and sometimes even takes the form of a sound very similar to an electric guitar... The Ontology of Noise explores the filmic qualities of noise - the image-creating mechanisms that arise almost hallucinogenically from subtle variations of frequences. By using a special set of digital mastering and filtering techniques, the recordings often sound very much like the sounds of nature; wind in trees and water. The Ontology of Noise opens up an audial perception for these sounds of nature and ask questions about their ontology... ref: Burzum's Filosofem with thanks to Annika von Hausswolff Cover art: Jon Wozencroft]]> http://www.nanaapriljun.com/the_ontology_of_noise.html http://www.nanaapriljun.com/the_ontology_of_noise.html left Thu, 28 Aug 2008 15:07:32 +0000 Nana April Jun is one of the personae of Christofer Lämgren (b 1974), a visual artist and sound artist currently based in Malmö, Sweden http://www.nanaapriljun.com/new.html http://www.nanaapriljun.com/new.html right Thu, 28 Aug 2008 15:05:19 +0000 here.]]> http://www.nanaapriljun.com/reviews_features.html http://www.nanaapriljun.com/reviews_features.html right Mon, 28 Jul 2008 16:38:36 +0000 here]]> http://www.nanaapriljun.com/nana_april_jun_on_myspace.html http://www.nanaapriljun.com/nana_april_jun_on_myspace.html right Thu, 06 Sep 2007 11:25:04 +0000 You can contact nanaaprljun by emailing here: info [at] nanaapriljun [dot] com http://www.nanaapriljun.com/contact.html http://www.nanaapriljun.com/contact.html right Tue, 15 Mar 1910 17:20:28 +0000
