Raster-Noton
Posted: 03 Nov 2011 16:20
Un topic per una delle etichette più interessanti e rivoluzionarie, anche sperimentalmente parlando, del panorama elettronico. Di quest'anno, recensiti dal Panopticon, anche l'ultimo di Sakamoto-Noto e il secondo album di Kangding Ray.
Due uscite in arrivo, molto interessanti.
Vladislav Delay debuts on Raster-Noton with Vantaa
Few artists release albums as frequently as Ripatti, or alternate between as many pseudonyms (Luomo, Sistol, Uusitalo, etc). Entitled Vantaa, the new LP will be his fourth in just over a year, and his 10th as Vladislav Delay, his most prolific project. It will also be his first on the esteemed Raster-Noton label, whose avant-garde take on electronic production suits Ripatti to a T. In terms of sound, Vantaa has the same lurching rhythms as past Vladislav Delay releases, though this time the production style has a dub techno flavor to it, as opposed to the organic feel of his last album, Tummaa. It will be available digitally and on CD at the end of November.
Tracklist
01. Luotasi
02. Henki
03. Lipite
04. Narri
05. Vantaa
06. Lauma
07. Levite
___________________________
Byetone will release his third solo album, Symeta, next week on Raster-Noton.
Olaf Bender's personal style has always been very much in line with Raster-Noton's overarching sound, which is unsurprising given he's one of the German label's co-founders next to Alva Noto and Frank Bretschneider. Much like his past releases, Symeta is techno with a noisy, experimental edge, though this time a hint of electro and post-punk replaces the glitch. According to a press release, Bender first conceived of its seven tracks while playing live over the past two years. The album features a vocal appearance from Jan Kummer, a former member of AG.Geige, a band Bender and Bretschneider formed together in East Berlin before the Wall came down.
Tracklist
01. Topas
02. T-E-L-E-G-R-A-M-M
03. Neuschnee
04. Opal
05. Helix
06. Black Peace
07. Golden Elegy
