Shöckface and ero808 Release Impassioned New Single ‘Inbetween’

Shöckface and ero808 begin the new year forging a new friendship as solid as steel with the release of their new single ‘Inbetween,’ out now on Lowly Palace. After their massively successful collaboration ‘METANÖIA,’ the two bright creative souls have returned with a thrilling new masterpiece that is bound to stand the test of time.
‘Inbetween’ utilizes impassioned vocals and anthemic builds that stir a rich, heartwarming feeling in the soul. Shöckface and ero808 know how to perfectly fuse gritty jaw dropping layered bass with soft harmonious vocal textures. Shöckface crafts an alluring and hypnotic introduction only to be complimented by the Denver based singer-songwriter and producer, ero808’s illustrious vocals.
Listen to ‘Inbetween’ below and read what ero808 had to say about the creative process behind writing ‘Inbetween.’ 
“I was in between living situations when I wrote this. I remember just being posted up inside my car, writing, in a Whole Foods parking lot (they always have free WiFi). I had a lot on my mind that day. I sent the vocals to Shöckface and he built all the production around them. Not many producers can do that well, but he’s a fuckin genius man. This song was the beginning to me and Shöckface’s musical relationship, and we’ve worked on so many projects since then. I can’t wait for you guys to hear it all.”

WHIPPED CREAM Enlists in Big Freedia, Moore Kismet, UNIIQU3 for Empowering Anthem “HOLD UP” [LISTEN]

WHIPPED CREAM has arrived on the scene in 2022 with her first original of the year — and she invited some rather iconic friends to the party — Big Freedia, Moore Kismet and UNIIQU3.
The collaborative single “HOLD UP” doubles as a club banger and empowering anthem, celebrating black sheep everywhere with fierce energy and bounce. The team up of these bold artists and personalities is beautifully executed, with intent to encourage anyone who may hear the collab to be themselves unapologetically.
WHIPPED CREAM shares, “‘HOLD UP’ is a song created for the people who have never seemingly fit in. For those who have had to fight like hell to simply BE WHO THEY ARE.”
“Once I was done with the beat, I wanted to bring on a variety of artists that have really inspired me to keep going as my true self and have them lay their message down on the record in anyway they wanted with the message, ‘I am who I am whether you like it, accept it or not, and I was born to do this, be here and shine, I might even inspire others to keep being themselves too.'”
Listen below and read more about the collaborative single from WHIPPED CREAM’s perspective here. Club Queen UNIIQU3 sounds off here and The Unicorn Moore Kismet offers some inspiring words here.
P.S. Happy birthday to the Queen Diva, Big Freedia!

Your EDM Playlist: Six Tracks That Inspired Seba’s Newest Album, ‘Ingaro’

The Swedish atmospheric and production powerhouse known as Seba is also known for being a bit reclusive. The name of his label is Secret Operations, after all. That said, it’s sort of worked for his brand – not that he was necessarily thinking about it – because the subtle sound design and sometimes whisper quiet yet expertly crafted snares that typify Seba’s sound lend themselves to that sort of mystique. Either way, it’s rare to get a peek into an artist’s process and Seba just gave us a big look into Ingaro.
The next chapter in Seba’s glorious legacy starts out exactly as fans would hope, with a goosebump-inducing atmospheric track called “How It Goes,” featuring vocalist Marina Samba and is the perfect intro to the album. Pairing his classic heart-rending synths and sound design with classic 90s style beats, whip snap snares and syncopation to die for. Ingaro, which dropped last Friday, January 21, is the most epic multi-track from Seba since, well…since the last one.
With a sound as original as Seba’s many fans may think his ideas are completely organic but even the most cutting-edge artist takes inspiration for somewhere. D&B artists also often dance around the subject of who influenced them or give a general idea, but Seba’s different in that way too: his descriptions are very specific not only about what influenced Ingaro. Is he more aware of his influences than most artists? Probably not; most artists, especially in D&B, have an almost encyclopedic knowledge of all the sounds through the ages. So really that makes Seba more honest and clinical than many. For him, it’s just a fact, and if an artist is happy with their work, why not share who helped you along the way?
Since he’s been so great about pinpointing these influences and since we know you’re all listening to Ingaro on repeat now, if you’re a tech head we recommend listening to the tracks named below on the album and the tracks Seba lists as influential and see if you can hear the homages. Even if you’re not a tech head, learning an artist’s process is always fascinating and because Seba’s got such a wide mental lexicon for music, we guarantee there will be at least one track on this list that many of you are hearing for the first time. Now, into the mind of Seba we go; he’s given a great map.
Massive Attack – Unfinished sympathy
It wasn’t intentional, and I wasn’t aware of the inspiration. One of my friends sat in the studio and listened to ”How It Goes” and said ”it’s like a modern version of ‘Unfinished Sympathy’.” Obviously I can’t say that is what we were aiming for, neither achieved. But I understand what he means, with the smooth voice of Marina Samba and the attitude of the track. Maybe ”Unfinished Sympathy” was ringing in the back of my head while writing this track? One thing is for sure. I put some work in to making Marina sound a bit 90s rave-vocal.
 
Moderat – Rusty Nails
Me and Björn (Berglund) sort of used this as a model when we started sketching on ”Diamonds” (feat Samuel Lancine) some 13 years ago. You can hear it in the rhythm in the beginning of our track. When I dug this one up for the album, I realized that we were too stuck on sounding like Moderat but still tried to stay away from that sound. The solution was to revamp the breaks and the drums, et voila!
Etapp Kyle – Aurora
This track hasn’t really inspired me to write any particular track on the album, but has contributed to the overall sound of a few tracks. I listen to a lot of techno and that can be reflected in my music. On Ingaro, the tracks that have a clear techno influence are ”Horsepower,” ”Eztli” and ”All too much. I think its important to listen to a lot of different genres of music and get inspired to include that in the genre that I’m working with.
Spirit – Life Goes On
This one is a bit obvious. Some people have already told me that ”Sequence 5” sounds like ”Life Goes On” by Spirit. I am aware of that. I don’t like copying other people’s sound, even if that is inevitable sometimes. This track came to existence while I was playing around with a new piece of analog hardware in the studio. I really liked the Kraftwerk type of sound that I got out of the machine, but soon realized it sounded like a track that I’ve been playing a lot for many years. Nevertheless, I decided to finish the track and it fit well into my album.
Skee Mask – Shred 08
Again, here is an artist that hasn’t inspired any particular track on the album, but an artist that I’ve listened to a lot while writing the album. Skee Mask’s music is just electronic versatile. It’s not techno, dubstep, ambient or drum & bass. It’s all of those fused together in a new form of music. I don’t think ”Horsepower” would have turned out the way it did if I hadn’t been listening to Skee Mask.
Source Direct – The Cult
Source Direct left a huge imprint in the drum & bass scene. I’ve taken so much inspiration from many of their tracks. This time i wanted to create this kind of vibe but with some lighter drums, and the result is ”Thoughts Run Free.” I felt the track was a bit naked without a vocal. Instead of finding a sample I decided to see with Blackeye if he was up do doing another track with me. The result was very satisfying.
Ingaro is out now and can be streamed or purchased on multiple platforms by clicking here.

Black Tiger Sex Machine’s 3rd LP “Once Upon A Time In Cyberworld” Offers New Tales From Their Cyberpunk Universe

The time has come for the next chapter of Black Tiger Sex Machine’s ever-expanding dystopian world. After a massive year that saw the Montreal trio headline Red Rocks, play festivals like Lost Lands, Bass Canyon and more, BTSM are kicking off 2022 on January 28th with their highly anticipated 3rd album, Once Upon A Time In Cyberworld.
“Our post-apocalyptic universe is a bleak place where the world is crumbling. In some ways the hardships mirror what we’ve all gone through in the past couple years in real life. With this album we wanted to write from that perspective of coming in and out of hard times while still having some fight and hope left in us.” – BTSM
Coming in at 12 tracks, Once Upon A Time In Cyberworld features many familiar faces including Kai Wachi, YOOKiE, Macntaj, ATLiens, as well as new collaborators like YMIR, WODD, Wasiu and the guitarist/vocalist Ryan Perdz of TikTok fame. Previously released hit singles like “Cheatcode” and “Wild Kids” are included on the LP as well.
Songs like the hybrid hip-hop anthem “Trailblazer” and the genre-bending Squid Game inspired “Front Man” are just some of the newer cuts on the album that showcase the next evolution of BTSM’s sound.
“It was important to us that we worked with a lot of vocalists on the album, more than ever before, as we wanted to tell these stories from unique viewpoints and be more explicit about the world-building with thoughts and emotions that didn’t just stem from our production. It was a blast working with everyone and being able to bring them into our world and add depth as characters made this a special project.”

The Chainsmokers Return With First New Music Since 2019, “High”

Following a two-year break from touring and releasing music, The Chainsmokers have returned to unveil their new single “High” today. The song, which was co-written and co-produced with Whethan, launches a new musical era for the band and kicks off the journey towards their upcoming fourth full-length album. The song’s official music video has also premiered today and follows the guys to death-defying heights as Drew chases his unattainable significant other through several surreal scenarios, and showcases navigating through a world where love is always fleeting.
The band has also said of the single, “The song perfectly captures the spirit of today’s relationships, the lengths we will go for someone we love, and the lies we tell ourselves to continue on unhappily. However, underlying these dark and often contentious lyrics is a production that feels celebratory because we all know at the end of the day, we never listen to advice, we do what feels best for ourselves and keep telling ourselves it will be different this time.”
The Chainsmokers will perform “High” live for the first time ever during the Los Angeles Rams vs. San Francisco 49ers NFC Championship Game Halftime Show Presented by Audi this Sunday at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA. The game kicks off at 3:30pm PT / 6:30pm ET, will be broadcast on FOX.
Speaking to Zane Lowe on New Music Daily on Apple Music 1, Drew said, “I think we were happy with our last couple albums, but we just didn’t feel that those songs were really like living up to what we really thought we were capable of. That wasn’t honoring of where we thought Chainsmokers could go. And we needed some time to just stop and chill.
“And we went away to Hawaii in the beginning of 2020. We just went and surfed and drank and laughed and took mushrooms and listened to tons of music that we loved. And we just got refocused. Then we had Emily Warren with us and Whethan and Ian Kirkpatrick and we just all got on a vibe together and made what’s now the backbone of our fourth album and it feels genreless. It’s fun. It incorporates all these sounds that we’ve loved from our entire lives of listening to music. And it’s exciting to press play… cultivating your creativity is one of the hardest things to do. And we landed back in that little wave and ever since then, I think we’ve been more inspired now than we have in the past four years. And so we’re excited to show everybody all the stuff we’re making,”

Claptone is a man in no need of an introduction. He’s already left a permanent legacy in the dance music world with his unbridled imagination and uncanny ability to push the creative boundaries of both house music and live events. If you’ve ever seen him live or attended one of his Masquerade events, you’ll know what I mean.
Claptone is still fresh off of releasing his critically acclaimed album ‘Closer‘, released in November 2021, which featured timeless vocalists like Seal and Barry Manilow along with fresh-faced acts like James Vincent McMorrow and Mansionair. He recently enlisted the Queen of Deep House, Nora En Pure, to remix his single “Queen Of Ice“, featuring the beautiful vocals of Dizzy, that was enthralling through and through.
Now, Claptone has tapped legendary UK duo Pet Shop Boys to provide their take on “Queen Of Ice” and the result is nothing short of spectacular. Pet Shop Boys have been going strong since the 1980’s and continue to impress with their amazing ability to blend club and pop music in a way that feels fresh and genuine. Whether it’s through the icy ambiance that greets your ears right at the start, or the hypnotic groove that sets in shortly after, Pet Shop Boys truly created a mesmerizing remix, one that you can’t help but want to keep on repeat.
In addition to this remix, Claptone has announced a few upcoming North American tour dates, including Skyline Festival, Ultra Music Festival, and a headlining set at EDC Mexico.

Your EDM Premiere: Grey Code’s Epic New Album Warrants a ‘Renewal’ for the Artist and the Music World at Large [Metalheadz]

Grey Code has always been known for his diversity in sound, pretty much as soon as he hit the scene. With clean synths, cleaner breaks and overall work that reads more like high concept art than dancefloor D&B. It’s no wonder he’s released on so many premier labels since his first releases in 2017. Now with almost everything he does being scoffed up by Metalheadz, the continuation of the sonic journey that started with his Reprieve and Heilos EPs is almost here in the massive Renewal album, due out this Friday, January 28, could really only be on the mega-imprint.
A sonic journey in itself, Renewal is both a departure for Grey Code and right down the line of what fans love about him. Somehow celestial, cinematic and heavy all at once, the new album is as emotionally complicated as it is musically. Inspired, as most musicians have been these last two years, by COVID and its effects on history, Renewal tells a contemplative story so engaging that listeners may forget they’re listening to drum & bass. It’s an experience, not just a beat.
Don’t get us wrong; the drum & bass beats feature heavily in Renewal and will play well on big rigs because of course they will, but there’s an air of difference and expansion into other territory here that will make almost every track stand out. Think Misanthrop’s Blurred EP or Noisia’s more high concept stuff, a’la “The Nomad” with Mono/Poly: it’s instantly recognizable not because it’s popular but because it’s different, both musically and emotionally. Tracks like “Prima,” “Primrose” and “Iliad” on this album will, when dropped, instantly take the audience to a different space. They just happen to be danceable as well.
There are also tracks on the album that are so different that they’re properly in different genres (not that GC has ever cared about genre). “Quantified” sounds more like an industrial producer fell in love with a digital pixie than anything in the bass music category, for example, and “Birth (Interlude)” is truly beatless, sounding a bit like what would happen if someone threw the self-playing mods from Switched on Bach into a black hole. Spaghetti wiring being spaghettified. Trippy.
Somewhere between the heavy beats and beatless mod play on Renewal lies our premiere for today, “Miserere” featuring a new artist, Fixed Point. Following directly after “Birth,” Miserere kicks off a beautifully, synthy and heavily vapor wave-inspired synth with cinematic and celestial sound design. Then, rather than dropping directly into the heavy mess of sub synth and snare-driven dark beat, those elements sort of wash over the intro and draw it into said sub synth and snares. From there it’s almost a battle between the earth and the skies, or heaven and hell, depending on your philosophy, and they two parts come to a synergistic cacophony at the classically-composed crescendo, winding around each other rather than battling in the end. A single, vintage synth chord marks the end of the track, but not the recession of goosebumps. That won’t happen for a while. It’s hard to claim a best track on this album, but “Miserere” is close.

Metalheadz · Grey Code – Miserere (ft. Fixed Point) There are a lot of levels to listen to Renewal on; you can contemplate the futility of existence while listening to the full album if you like or just skank away to each track on the dancefloor. You can appreciate the sound design and craftsmanship (like your humble theory nerd author) or blast the bass in the car and piss off your whole town. Grey Code’s such a good artist because he gives the audience a choice. No matter how you want to experience it, Renewal captures a musical and cultural snapshot in time and is an epic drum & bass album for the ages; that’s universal.
Renewal drops this Friday, January 28 on Metalheadz. Click here to pre-order or pre-save.

Sexpays Drop Smooth House Anthem, ‘LOVE’

SEXPAYS is coming out of left field with his take on house music. This is their very first release overall, showcasing a sensational house vibe that hits all the right marks. The mystery artist approaches at things from a different view, which can certainly be seen as a feature the electronic world needs more of.
From the sound of it, he’s gained experience producing, and most likely DJing, from years of practice and potentially expressing himself under a different alias – the chops going on here are at a caliber that’s too strong to be a first go-around at an artist career.
“Love,” is very first song for this project and sets a nice stage for more to come in the near future. There’s plenty to enjoy with what SEXPAYS serves up, keep an eye for this artist who’s got passion and drive for the music he makes.

New Artist Spotlight: Ono Kimono Is Determined to Find Fun, Even if it’s Just a ‘Fever Dream’

As one might be able to tell by both his project name and the title of his first single, “Fever Dream,” Ono Kimono brings a tremendous amount of cheek to his work. Started in 2021 by multi-instrumentalist Justin Roll, thus far this solo project is just about as vibrant, colorful and retro as the cover art for said first single. With 80s-style synths, a good handle on oscillators and loads of indie pop cachet, Ono Kimono is set to bring the next wave of rock/electro fusion.
Roll says Ono Kimono and specifically “Fever Dream” were and answer to what he calls “pandemic burnout.” An apt assessment to what we all felt at the end of 2021 (or 2020, if we’re honest), and especially whatartists dealt with.
But, also like many artists, Roll wanted to lift people out of that burnout. And what better way than with some throwback pop vibes, excellent synths and the suggestion that COVID is just a collective hallucination?
While “Fever Dream” is bubble gum fun with a somewhat serious message, Ono Kimono’s follow-up “Malibu.” released just last week, is slightly more indie musically but with a more relaxed lyrical center. Drawing on late 00s/early 10s acts like Chromeo, Cut Copy, Washed Out and even a hint of LCD Soundsystem, this track is where Roll really puts his own spin on indie electro pop and shows his multi-instrumental skill. Vintage funk, dream pop-y tone on the vox and some expertly syncopated live jazz drums make “Malibu” possibly even better than “Fever Dream” from a musical standpoint and will certainly help Ono Kimono stand out from the indie pop pack.
Artists being inspired by COVID and healing themselves and the world at large with their work is almost a silver lining in all this mess. It certainly makes it all more bearable. For Roll as Ono Kimono, it’s an interesting way to start a new project but it’s clear he has both the musical chops and the contemplative nature to make us all feel a bit better and even have a bit of fun along the way. Even if this is all just a collective “Fever Dream.”
“Fever Dream and “Malibu” are out now and can be streamed on Spotify or purchased on Bandcamp.

Your EDM Q&A: Chris Ianuzzi Talks Envelope Pushing and the Endless ‘Maze’ that Is Experimental Music [Video]

Her at Your EDM, we’ve long carried the belief that EDM and other forms of electronic music wouldn’t be where they are with experimental artists. Mechanizing audio was originally the discipline of scientists, after all, and experimental musicians always seem to have that mad scientist arc.
Whether we’re talking Philip Glass, Brian Eno, Musique Concrète or more contemporary curious artists like Hans Zimmer, Venetian Snares, Aphex Twin and even Noisia, tinkering with sounds, mods and recording techniques factors in just as much as composition, emotion and vibes. It’s just the way these artists’ brains work, and thank goodness they do. Who else is going to push the boundaries of EDM and continue to move it forward? You don’t progress genres by throwing cake and humping the decks, that’s for sure.
Because there are so many famous-cake throwers and deck-humpers around and also because of the slightly elusive and complex nature of the experimental electronic artist, there’s a bit of a dearth of interviews with these beautiful minds on Your EDM. Luckily, we’ve finally reeled one in.
YEDM has been following Chris Ianuzzi for some time now, since his days in the equally experimental but more rock-oriented band Sluka to his ultra-experimental solo project I, Synthesist to his recent releases under his given name, the Olga In a Black Hole EP and Planeteria LP. With those symbiotic releases somewhat categorizable as IDM, Ianuzzi has pulled out all the stops with his upcoming LP, Maze. Released slowly as singles over the past six months, the full and fully tweaked Maze will be out in March.
Maze Ianuzzi both returning to form and going fully formless, with some of the tracks almost having a full-on rock or pop structure and others being borderline chaotic. With an almost joyful shirking of genre and style, Maze does more than just push the limits of music and sound; it laughs in the face of those limits.
With Maze set to be one of those albums that pushes the electronic music universe to expand just a bit more, it seemed a prudent time to see if we could sit down and pick one of these magnificent experimental minds, and luckily Ianuzzi agreed to a Q&A. What follows is one of the most descriptive and entertaining descriptions of an artist’s process we’ve heretofore seen on YEDM. If you’ve ever wondered how these guys think, Chris Ianuzzi has provided an excellent window. Hold on tight, embrace the chaos and read on.
Why did you want to release Maze in a series of singles rather than all at once? Have you found it easier or more difficult to do it this way? How many tracks are left to go?
All the tracks have essentially been released in one way or another. I always think creating music is part of a period in time. Music can be presented like a book with chapters. When someone suggested that I try releasing singles before the full album, I thought it was a great idea.
Albums require a lot of time and getting singles out does a couple of good things. First, it’s harder for people to forget about you in this low attention span world. It also gives time to allow the bigger work to develop. Lastly, releasing in singles gives the composer/producer a chance to make different versions after getting audience reactions. It creates a lot of pressure getting the stuff in the system on time and I think that’s good for me. I liked getting audience reactions from live shows, but we have a pandemic and things are different with no shows, so this creates a similar effect.
What sort of modifications have you made based on the feedback and your own observations?
December was the last month and the Piece called Maze was released. Now before the album is released I am making some developmental changes. In some cases its like “the Demos are done, lets see what I have to do.” “Live in Today” gave way to a newer version called “Sweet Over Time.” “Fantastic Hellos” is a remix of some elements from “Hello” on the Planeteria album. Then I made a different version for the album called “Cosmic Hellos” which is a combination of the two. (Laughs) I have to stop with that piece now! I’m becoming a “Hello” psycho.
I am also making a slightly different version of “March of Madness” for the album. It will be processed using the (Dolby) Atmos system, which is a form of 360 spatial audio. I’m working with some great people in Turkey making an AI video for the song too. Its going to be fantastic.
Let’s talk style a bit: a lot of these tracks on Maze seem, to the casual listener, almost to be the antithesis to your previous ventures Olga In a Black Hole and Planeteria. You’ve said, however, around the time that Olga…was released, it was meant to be a prequel to Planeteria in terms of both style and substance. Now that it’s mostly done and out, how do you think Maze relates to these other works?
I set up a challenge for myself with Planeteria. I felt that I wanted to move beyond song structure and repetitive grooves. I have been working with songs for many years with my I, Synthesist project. so, I was like a teacher not allowing old habits to be there. I think I went too far. I didn’t feel comfortable being myself sometimes. I think it was a good work-though and I went through the process and learned. I also wanted to get better with my modular synth.
By contrast the original “Hello” for example, was created in a day, it was during album mastering time. I really was like a rebel using a drum & bass groove with that. I just let loose at the end.
On closer listen, there are a lot of elements that are similar between Olga…/Planeteria and Maze, but they almost seem reversed. The ambient sound design and general woo feel are still there, for example, but they take a backseat to more organized noise elements and post punk-style vocals. Was that a conscious decision or sort of just how it flowed as you were working? What do you think it means for your overall sound and style?
I definitely had a flow (this time around). I have always worked with sound design as the core and inspiration of work. I started making music and wasn’t thinking about songs. “Infinite Prize” was definitely a song stuck in my head as I got going and then the vision of what a video could be (came to me).
As I continued making more music, song (structures) were definitely present. I then went to “Saturday Night Confession.” That was originally made for the I, Synthesist project but it was left hanging and I decided to finish it. “So Far, So Near” was originally meant to be instrumental. This new stuff was started before the release of Planeteria.
Tech talk time! The other thing that’s quite noticeable on the new tracks is the experimental side of things has been ramped up and thus the composition must have been a different process. Did you still work scoring-style due to wanting to cram all those different elements in or was it more mad scientist in the studio this time? Or both?
Both. The Mad Scientist is always there. I mean, take a look at the I, Synthesist pictures. Maze could be looked at as the fourth I, Synthesist album but I really felt the need to continue using my name and being comfortable with that.


 
You’ve got a healthy dose of drone going in these tracks, but it sounds quite different than in previous work. Did you do anything differently or come up with new techniques? How big was the Moog element this time around?
I am really into my modular synthesizers and always exploring. I don’t think of trying to make drone or anything. I find things that are telling me something. Funny, I didn’t have a Moog on Planeteria. I had a modular Moog a long time ago. I did recently get a Moog Subharmonicon and I used it for some elements in “So Far So Near.” The big use of it is in the end of “Infinite Prize.” The patterns developing and changing are all done with the Sub Harmonicon’s sequencer. I hope to add a Moog with the original Moog oscillators and filters later this year.
Even with the rock-style vocals and what pop fans might call more structured track formats, the Maze tracks seem to still be pushing the boundaries of experimental electronica. What new methods or arrangements did you use to get your results? How much was programmed with modern/digital methods and how much was analog/modulators?
I spent a lot of time in my life working in rock-oriented bands, using that song structure, so some elements are part of my vocabulary. I spent a lot of time doing scoring and working with classical as well as experimental. I have a (diverse) vocabulary.
I’ve also always been known for pushing envelopes. I am not consciously here trying to be a conquistador, it just happens. I have always loved analog synthesizers as well as some digital synths, et cetera. Combining these elements can be beautiful. I think certain elements have their place the way an orchestra has instruments.
How does the experimental/sound design end of things figure in?
The Maze track “Setagaya” is a good thing to talk about (to explain how I work). It’s not a song; it is more sound design-oriented but it does have melodic and rhythmic elements that a person can latch onto. I was in a band called Sluka that was signed with a Japanese label. After the second album was finished, I was making comments about how the sounds of Tokyo were inspiring to me. I started a project that was recording sounds of Tokyo on DAT and then sampling them and making the music that it inspired with the samples. Nobody knew what in the world I was talking about then. The project was televised in Japan showing how I made the recordings and worked through it. Still no one really got it. (laughs) This was 1990, the world has changed a lot since then. OK, (maybe I am a) conquistador. Or at least an envelope pusher.
(Flash forward to “Setagaya”) and I still had some of the sounds that I recorded and decided to make something current that used them. The sounds that I recorded were from an area of Tokyo called Setagaya. The train and any things about Setagaya are a great thing (to sample even now).
What, if any, are the more philosophical or story-telling themes of Olga…/Planeteria and Maze? What do you want listeners to take away from the overall experience of these three releases?
I would like people to go on a journey within themselves to find what the pieces and songs inspire. Olga In a Black Hole began by me using a Russian soft synth called Olga. I had a reverb plugin called the Black Hole made by Eventide. So, my Olga was being played through The Black Hole. This created a vision for me to latch onto for my own creative story.
Which track or tracks on the album do you think would be best for audiences to listen to in order to get a snapshot of what the album’s about? Best track for EDM crossover fans? Experimental fans?
I think that “Hunger” is definitely an EDM crossover thing, Some even find industrial elements in it. It is very danceable an I want to hear it loud in a club. Any of the “Hellos” could fit into an EDM/drum & bass type as well. “March of Madness” also has points that could fit into the EDM crossover. I am putting that song through developments right now. As I mentioned, song inspired a fantastic computer artist and sculptor in Istanbul, Turkey. He is making an AI video for it. It’s amazing to see this develop. It is very similar in approach to what Duran Duran did with “Invisible.”
Last week we entered my lyrics into his computer and we watched paintings develop from the computer’s dream state. This is going to be a very special work. We are working over Zoom. The video for “Infinite Prize” also was created through Zoom work as everyone was in a different location.
Pandemic production,
(On the experimental/post rock end of things), I think “So Far So Near” is a great example of using song structure in development but it really expanded with the three minutes of modular world at the end as well as internal stuff. The intro has some good analog stuff. The whole song is a little over ten minutes and I will keep it like that for the album. The single was split into Side 1 and Side 2.
Of course this project is still going and not totally finished yet, but what else is on the horizon for you? Do you plan to continue this series or go in a totally different direction?
I am very interested in performing. I want to dive deeper into the analog modular synth and digital modular synths. I want to make video and music. I make video backdrops for performances.
I don’t see (Maze or anything I do) as a series but just what I do, I want to make an invitation to go on a journey. No restrictions.
Aside from that, my daughter Nina started making the Maze track “Shuttles” and I helped her finish it. She is 13 now and a fantastic pianist so I hope to work with her more in the future.
Maze will release in full in March. The singles released thus far can be steamed on Spotify and Apple Music or purchased on Bandcamp. Stay tuned to Ianuzzi’s YouTube channel for the upcoming videos mentioned in the interview.
