| Sylvain Chauveau – Singular Forms (2010) |
[Oct. 25th, 2010|10:06 pm] |
Improbable as it may seem, 'Singular Forms (Sometimes Repeated)' is
Sylvain Chauveau's first album of new material in five years, and if
you've ever found yourself marvelling at the music of David Sylvian, or
indeed the solo work of Martin Gore - this album will blow your mind,
referencing both artists combined with a stripped Piano/Electronic
arrangement reminiscent of Alva Noto's work with Ryuichi Sakamoto. Chauveau presents a collection of his own songwriting, one that's
presented stripped of orchestration and the trappings of his
contemporary-classical compositions. What's left is piano, some
strictly minimal electronics and a free-roaming central vocal.

| Hauschka – Foreign Landscapes (2010) |
[Sep. 15th, 2010|02:07 pm] |
Volker Bertelmann is a classically trained composer/pianist from Germany
who currently resides in Düsseldorf. Having studied classical piano for
ten years, his work as Hauschka is based upon a playful exploration of
the possibilities of the ‘prepared’ piano - a disruptive intervention
into the preconceived idea of the piano as a pure-toned instrument: by
clamping wedges of leather , felt or
rubber between the strings; preparing the hammers with aluminium paper
or rough films; placing crown corks on the strings, weaving guitar
strings around the piano’s guts, or pasting them down with gaffa tape -
his resulting tracks are composed both originally and charmingly. The
results are vivid, unconventional pieces made in a spirit of playful
research-enthusiasm.

Goldmund - The Malady of Elegance pass: inasafeplace
http://www.myspace.com/goldmundmusic
‘The Malady of Elegance’ is the second poetic full-length from Boston-based composer Keith Kenniff, better known to some as Helios. Taking cues from ‘Corduroy Road’ Keith again restricts himself to the piano in conjuring up his humble soundscapes and again we are pulled into a deep, meditative and filmic world as the notes glide to a slow, pensive meter |

Kenneth Kirschner - May 3, 1997 [192 Kbps, 52 Mb, 37 min]
Subtle Concentrated Piano Minimalism
“Basically, the sound is a single, 22-khz piano sample that has been stretched across the entire keyboard. In theory, this should sound terrible, as it's the exact way you're NOT supposed to make a piano patch! But I've always found it to be the most interesting and expressive piano sound I've ever created. Here, as previously noted, the patch uses a microtonal scale, which is another factor that differentiates it from a "natural" piano sound.”
