today and tomorrow

“What’s that sound? I like that sound. I love that sound.”
“It is the sound of my shoes.”
This is the new music video for “Shoes” by Tiga, it was directed by Alex and Liane.

Digidesign & Snake Eater are 2 tracks by Joker, excellent stuff for a sunday!

Datamoshing is how you call the video technique in this music video “Evident Utensil” for the band Chairlift. I would still call it digital glitches, but datamoshing sounds better (than the music in this video). So no, this video is not f*cked up, Ray Tintori of Court 13 who directed it, did it on purpose.

Songsmith music video remixes are the new internet meme and Wrongsmith a website who collects all those YouTube links. But this video called Charts Music tops it all, Johannes Kreidler fed that piece of Microsoft #*?!ware with all kind of charts. Excellent!
For those of you who don’t know about Songsmith … don’t bother.

ATOM is a performance by Monolake and Christopher Bauder for a matrix of 64 gas balloons, lights, and sound. You can see it tomorrow evening at Berghain in Berlin.

A room is filled with deep, evolving noises from a four-channel sound system. An eight-by-eight array of white, self-illuminated spheres floats in space like the atoms of a complex molecule.

Through variable positioning and illumination of each atom, a dynamic display sculpture comes into being, composed of physical objects, patterns of light, and synchronous rhythmic and textural sonic events. Change, sound, and movement converge into a larger form.

The height of the helium balloons is adjusted with a computer-controlled cable, whilst the internal illumination is accomplished using dimmable super-bright LEDs, creating a pixel in a warped 8×8 spatial matrix.

The sonic events, the patterns of light, and the movement of the balloons are manipulated in real time as a 45-60 minute-long performance.

I’m out today. These 2 tracks are my playlist. I’m out.

Juke Bots are 2 robotic arms who can play vinyl records, that’s it. They don’t even know how to use a mixer, yet.

This week I have again a very intensive Dial Records phase, meaning that I listen to electronic music from that label nonstop. A few minutes ago I found this music video for “How To Lose Your Best Friend” by Archangel in my inbox. Pumping indie, really nice for a change. There is also an interactive version of the video, where you can arrange 5 different sequences. Colectiva was responsible for both.

And how was your weekend?
