about

This is the twelfth release in the series Corollaries, that compiles works resulting from Active Crossover: Mooste, a cross-cultural collaborative residency curated by Simon Whetham and hosted by MoKS, in April and May 2015.

Igavene Olevik (the eternal present) draws together a heterogeneous collection of sounds whose various morphogeneses and hastened evolutions, whose brief but eventful lives and often melancholic disappearances have been finely and expertly documented across time and space in the fields, forests and industrial graveyards of South-Eastern Estonia.

The music arising from these sounds is articulated by means of a home-made instrument, a digital contraption whose beginnings and early days are reported upon in my weblog.

I would like my music to serve as a profound meditation on the wider experimental electroacoustic project, asking questions of generic categories such as noise, field recording, minimalism, ambient and industrial music, of experimental sonic art, abstraction and representation, and of sound’s phenomenology.

I’m grateful to the artists and curators of the current series and acknowledge that their energy, gifts and creative spirits have inspired my own contribution.

Metal combined with piano sounds... The sound of strikethrough is like encryption... Mr. Turing is nearby)) The detached noise textures are impressive, as is the internal failure for the listener when the gluing is detected! A decent job! Notnotice

Green Above The Blades
by Mark Lyken

supported by 7 fans who also own “Igavene Olevik”

"There is a somewhat paradoxical sense of an industrial landscape and an ostensibly barren, alien world. Dissonances develop and ebb, as do less uneasy elements, purring and whirring in the fog...A thoughtful and deep work for your subconscious to ponder. Side B heads into truly glorious, if subtle, territory" -excerpt from Deft Esoterica issue one review Claude

Jumand

Purportedly the recordings of a disgraced experimental psychologist (you decide), “Jumand” sets spoken word to eerie synths. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 2, 2023

Very interesting soundscape. I imagine the gentle clanging of Tibetan water bowls, water droplet sounds in reverse and the intermittent foghorn. Richard Erickson
