Cam Deas x Jung An Tagen - Presentism LP

[d-a-m-o]

Out this Friday ➜ DIAG059 ⊹ Cam Deas x Jung An Tagen ▹ Presentism LP ⬄ Special thanks to @camdeas and @jungantagen for the music ⬀ video by the artists ❊ ‘Presentism’ opens new wormholes of pursuit for two leading exponents of avant electronics. Its eight tracks form a probing study into techno dialectics between states of past, present, and future, and between the approaches of notation, improvisation, and recording. It seems intent on unravelling techno’s fixation with grids and loops, or an “eternal present”, and reorients the way we experience time itself. In the context of radical dancefloor music, they move in the footsteps of Mark Fell, Gábor Lázár, or Russell Haswell, rendering rudely rhythm-driven results . . . forever in anticipation of those elusive kicks → vinyl edition of 220 copies

[Nil]

Kindohm, Gabor Lazar, early Errorsmith...

How would you guys categorize these kind of rhythms / music ?

[Nil]

Computer music ? Not taking the piss, that's actually how I refer to it (and I've been obsessed with all its nuances for a little while now).
Regarding labels, Conditional, Superpang, Editions Mego, UIQ, OOH Sounds, CODEPENDENT, PAN... come to mind. Fascinating stuff to discover ;)

[Wunderbar]

Yea i discoverd snd trough another post of yours. Kinda gave me the same feeling.

Thanks for sharing some more labels.

The use of the Shepard Tone is on point in this track.

[Wunderbar]

Can anyone more competent than me identify the time signature ?

I'm getting a 4/4 but heavily syncopated.

Yea i felt 4/4 to but wanted to be sure.  I dont really listen to other types of stuff to much to be able to really identify it well.

[dcom]

Reminds me of this, which I also love.

[Wunderbar]

Totally off topic but would any of you be able to identify what this patch entails?

I was thinking something sample and hold on the pitch or filter idk, Sounds beautiful. The patch after that 44 has the same effect there is obv delay but what else.

I've liked the stuff these two have done on their own but I'm liking this a lot. Funny how additive synthesis is still the cool kids' sound signature even now.

[kuniklo]

This is more what I was hoping that last Gabor Lazar album would sound like.

[Nil]

Too bad there are so few additive synths available though, it’s hard not to sound like Gabor Lazar when using Razor / Lazerbass.

[d-a-m-o]

Can’t wait to blast this at full volume after work !

[Ivan Ooze]

got the digitals on boomkat, 3 tracks in and it's amazing

first track slays

[Nil]

Instabuy.

[Wunderbar]

that first track really sounds like this

are these the same guys?
