SATURDAY 13 JUNE 2015 – RADIALSYSTEM V

Nils Petter Molvaer (no) + Moritz von Oswald (ger)

::: Meandering between cineastic-spherical and minimalist moments, the musical symbiosis of two individualists and visionary artists creates unique soundscapes.

Hidden Orchestra (live remix du set, uk)

::: cinematic soundscapes with a big sound; special live remix set
::: listen: www.denovali.com/hiddenorchestra

Ricardo Donoso (br)

::: A constant drive of trying to get somewhere, but never really arriving - dynamic crescendos come and go, developing and falling apart again and bringing us back to where we started, the music, constantly evolving and yet going nowhere simultaneously, creating a true sense of timelessness.
::: listen: www.denovali.com/ricardodonoso

Poppy Ackroyd (uk)

::: delicate, intricate and beautifully atmospheric music by manipulating and multi-tracking sounds from violin and piano
::: listen: www.denovali.com/poppyackroyd

SUNDAY 14 JUNE 2015 – RADIALSYSTEM V

Forest Swords (uk)

::: "Barnes’ work is less concerned with trends or scenes than experiences and memories that everyone has had, regardless of what music they’ve listened to before. On that count, Engravings is a broad success." (Pitchfork)
::: listen: www.soundcloud.com/forestswords

Floex (cz)

::: exploration of acoustic music (classical minimalism), soundtrack music and contemporary electronica
::: listen:  www.denovali.com/floex

Ah! Kosmos (tr)

::: spaced-out layers of beats and blissed-out sounds and textures create a sense of slow, echoic wonder that eventually builds to a multi-rhythmic universe of its own
::: listen: www.denovali.com/ahkosmos

Witxes (fr)

::: roaming, roving and raving were giving birth to melodic spaces fed on colourful sound layers, shimmering textures and residual traces of sonic instants
::: listen: www.denovali.com/witxes

FRIDAY MAY 22nd - CAFE OTO LONDON

Dalhous (uk)

::: "The sounds of Dalhous take on suggestive power as they spend time with you, wandering the moors of interiority to find the temporary answers tumbling there." (Tiny Mix Tapes)
::: listen: www.dalhous.com

Ricardo Donoso (bra)

::: ""It’s called Sarava Exu and it’s brilliant. Donoso has refined his clattering, ambient noise across seven tracks of torrential gusts, pummelling bursts of techno and metallic, clawed synths." (Crack magazine)
::: listen: www.denovali.com/ricardodonoso

Karen Gwyer (uk)

::: "On releases for No Pain in Pop and Opal Tapes Karen creates digital psychedelia, toying with kosmische repetition, manipulated vocals, drone and expansive electro pop. She's been compared to OPN and Julianna Barwick, and her latest work brings to mind Prurient's recent dabbling in dark techno."
::: listen: www.karengwyer.com

Matthew Collings (uk)

::: "Despite the fact that most of his work is mediated by technology, he's far more excited by the sound of acoustic. Featuring brass ensembles and a string quartet the instruments and sounds are full of cracks, breath, embedding rough materials informed by luscious intentions."
::: listen: www.denovali.com/matthewcollings

SATURDAY MAY 23rd - ST JOHN AT HACKNEY

Jon Hassell (us) + Ensemble

::: "Almost all of the musicians I meet at the moment seem to regard Jon Hassell as one of the God-like geniuses of contemporary music." (David Toop - The Wire)
::: listen: www.jonhassell.com

Fennesz (at)

::: "A flood of symphonic guitar and electronics overwhelms the mix and we're reintroduced to the signature sound world that's unique to this man's music - he's one of the most imitated electronic artists out there." (boomkat)
::: listen:  www.fennesz.com

Greg Haines (uk)

::: "Ambient, techno, dub, electronica and classical music come to mind when listening to the music, but Where We Were doesn't fall under any of those labels. It's a strange beast composed of analog synths, old tape delays, piano, vibraphone, percussion and free, boundless approach." (Igloo Magazine)
::: listen: www.denovali.com/greghaines

DALE COOPER QUARTET

"Quatorze Pieces De Menace" is the new full-length of the cult French Dark Jazz collective is the follow up of the highly acclaimed 2011 output "Métamanoir" - the second release for the German experimental music label Denovali. Halfway from their debut "Parole de Navarre"'s ambient and drone driven soundscapes and the more orchestrated "Métamanoir", this new collection of tracks is following their quest for dreamy but mysterious places. A hint of 50s cool jazz, a truckload of noise and melodies, again tiny references to Twin Peaks' series soundtrack and some ghostly and deep tone voices: the Dale Cooper Quartet pushes the genre Dark Jazz towards other spaces. The album is further enriched by appearences of guest musicians such as Alicia Merz (BIRDS OF PASSAGE), Zalie Bellacicco, Ronan Mac Erlaine and Gaëlle Kerrien (YANN TIERSEN) on vocals. Recorded in Brest, Britanny, France, this album always conveys an atmosphere of strangeness and beauty, the trademark of each of the Quartet's records. Based upon the live experiences of the band and their everlasting love for the local landscapes, "Quatorze Pièces de Menace" is as striking, deep, fascinating and beautiful as a storm in the middle of the Atlantic.

WITXES

Witxes is a sonic entity crashing popular music into singular music. This schizophrenic project, feminine, plural, finds its way in the balance between improvisation and passionate sound research. Roaming, roving and raving are giving birth to melodic spaces fed on colourful sound layers, shimmering textures and residual traces of sonic instants in which everyone can find a place.

"beautiful escapism where each note soothes you and shields you off from the sometime cold hard reality that is out there."
Michael, Beats, breaks and big smiles

"The mix of styles is flawless and draws on the relaxing and darker qualities of both jazz and ambient."
Oscar Strik, Evening of Light

Sebastian Plano (arg)
::: Piano/cello - strong roots in folk music and tango, enchanted by the resonance of electronic music.

::: Listen: www.soundcloud.com/modernlove/sets/demdike-stare-testpressing-001

Petrels (uk)
::: Eclectic electronic sound taking inspiration from speculative science, immense time scales, retro-futurism and personal history.

Oval (ger)

::: Listen: www.soundcloud.com/oval-official

Rafael Anton Irisarri (us)

::: Listen: www.denovali.com/rafaelantonirisarri

Ensemble Economique (us)
::: From apocryphal world music and dusty soundtracks to gauzy 4AD-style atmospherics. Trellises of guitar embolden Pyle’s whispered, threadbare lyrics.

Pan & Me (fra)

::: Intricate layers of piano and synthesizers with affinity to dense African poly-rhythms. A hazy, analog world of sound.

::: The dark-jazz legends. Jazz in its slowest tempos and gloomiest ambience.
::: Listen: www.bohrenundderclubofgore.bandcamp.com/album/piano-nights

Piano Interrupted (uk)
::: With nods to minimalism, film scores and cinematic soundscapes, glitch and ambient, post-rock, neo-classical piano and jazz.
::: Listen: www.denovali.com/pianointerrupted

Origamibiro (uk)
::: Audio-visual collective creating performances with video feeds and multi instrumentalism - involving treated books, typewriters, found celluloid, paper and bespoke visual contraptions.
::: Listen: www.denovali.com/origamibiro

John Lemke (ger)
::: A blend of prepared piano and field recordings with hand crafted beats and swampy bass lines. Deeply moody and danceable walking on dub-trenched territories.
::: Listen: www.denovali.com/johnlemke

Sunday – October 5th

Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra (can)
::: Instrumental band interested in free jazz, community sight-singing, Minimalism and American folkways - still anchored to a punk-rock take on neo-classical and modern music tropes.

::: Listen: www.denovali.com/samueljackson5

::: An honest soundtrack of life by Marc Euvrie bringing together a minimal mixture of samples, cello elements, electronic programming, loops, drones, piano parts and field recordings.
::: Listen: www.denovali.com/theeyeoftime

Franz Kirmann (fra)
::: Strongly influenced by movies with a weakness for walls of sounds and fragile melodies, resulting in a sound between an 80's synthesizer soundtrack and a post-modern electronic record.
::: Listen: www.denovali.com/franzkirmann
