Alva Noto - HYbr:ID I


Scaramouche

Recommended Posts

Excellent two opening and two ending tracks where the tunes hubble and bubble to life but the bit in the middle didn’t really do much for me. But that’s just after a couple of plays.

Like it. Pan Sonic vibes.

I was getting some Ø vibes - in particular the latter portion of oval p-dance - should receive my copy tomorrow, will wait until tomorrow night for a re-listen.

i do wish there was a bit more variety here but he probably doesnt have much variety in his albums (this is my third album from him, prev 2 were XERROX 4 & unitxt and i would be down for recommendations!!!) besides that i'd say this is really good!! will definitely be following this series as it goes on

You should certainly check out the rest of the XERROX and Uni series, but I'd say:

Unieqav is a great album of his more beat focused work. Some really nice tracks with his machine funk vibe. UNI CHORD is worth the price of admission alone (IMO)

The two albums on Line are also worth checking out for something a little different, For and For 2. Two albums of dedications that cover a 'broad' range of styles for him. 

And the first Opto Files album with Opiate.

I love the TransAll series. Saw him live back then, it was immense. Saw Xerrox live too, before the first volume was even announced, and it was beyond stunning.

I recommend the collabs with Ryuichi Sakamoto too, particularly Insen, Vrioon, Summvs and Utp_

When listening to ''HYbr:ID oval blackhole'', I think it's clear he has used the sounds from VIGO/LIGO capturing for the first time the signal of 2 black holes merging together.

On a side note, an Alva Noto installation is part of this exhibition that’s on in London till next month.

Missed the Ikeda that was on there, tempted by this. 

Released earlier today.

Artist talk streamed live today, Q&A at the end. Had it on in the background, so need to have a proper listen, heard "Wittgenstein" and "Cosmic Ray Detection" mentioned, and he talks about the Virus series in the Q&A.

God yes. When I first heard Vrioon all those years ago it was a transformative moment I think. Still gets played often.
