“Meanwhile In Meatspace” was the first Yoni Den long player, released on BandCamp in January 2020. Later that year it was (re)released on HoloJamz with a limited physical release on MiniDisc and Cassette, some sweet merch in the form of Tee Shirts and ArtPrints. Unfortunately, after selling out the MiniDiscs and a bunch of tapes, HoloJamz went to the wall and the orders were never fulfilled.
That’s as close as I ever got to a physical release.
And it kind of soured this Album a little for me, for a short while.
It’s a goofy album.
I loved it when I was making it.
It was made entirely on the Elektron Digitakt, using no track mixdowns, so it’s limited to eight ‘tracks’ or ‘voices’ at any one time. This gives a great minimal lofu kind of vibe to the album. I rarely use more than three drums in a track,(this is true of most of my music! Ha!), it’s mixed by ear in the digitakt and recorded with Zoom H6. I guess it is mostly Instrumental on the Hip-Hop side of Hip-House, your guess is as good as mine.
Today, almost four years on, this is still a goofy album.
I do love it again.
It’s a name your price release on BandCamp, just pop in zero to cop.
I hope you will enjoy it!
My #album has been compared to #TangerineDream, #SkinnyPuppy, #MeatBeatManifesto, an "alternate world dystopia" version of the #Tron soundtrack, "if #SnowCrash had a soundtrack," and been summarized as "mental but strangely hypnotic." Doesn't that make you the slightest bit curious? Because, c'mon, that is wild. Have a listen here:
Since I was just given a free copy of their new, upcoming album, it's only fair that I talk about them here on Fedi for the first time 💗
I think I found out about this Norwegian 🇳🇴 project through post-punk.com if I remember correctly, and right off the bat I absolutely fell in love with them. Many of my gothy friends don't share this sentiment, but for me the sound of this release is just right up my alley. The post-punky, reverbed, chorused guitars mixed with the retro-hypnagogic-sounding synths (especially in "New Kind" and "Drives Me On") to me almost feel like a post-punk/vaporwave fusion - and if you know me, then you probably can tell that is just the perfect kind of stuff for my ears.
I love it so much. :gothsparkleheart: 💗
Their music disappeared off streaming recently, but they've mentioned that they plan to make a comeback sometime in the future :)
Des enseignant.e.s du premier degré et/ou des gens intéressés par la littérature jeunesse par ici ? Je cherche de nouvelles (petites) maisons d'édition sympas à découvrir en jeunesse, des albums aux premiers romans (disons en gros de la maternelle au début du collège, pour le niveau souhaité). Auriez-vous des recommandations ? Merci, et bonne rentrée ! #littérature#jeunesse#livre#édition#album#école#primaire#maternelle#éducation#educationnationale
Oh hey, I didn't make an announcement til now, but I reduced the price of my Lithopedion EP and full #album over on #Bandcamp, in case you wanted to pick up some of my #music.
Crafty types out there: can anyone recommend a good display album for stickers? The wife has been collecting stickers that are available on occasion from a coffee place here called Dutch Bros. Attached pic shows examples of what they look like, none of them are too large, probably nothing bigger than a 5x7 photo. Yes I know I could probably just use a regular old photo album but I don’t know if there’s anything out there better suited to display things like this - vinyl stickers that don’t need any protective “anti acid” treatment within the album to prevent them fading or whatnot.
#GreatAlbums1960s - #StanGetz & João Gilberto – Getz/ Gilberto (1964). Saxophonist Stan Getz and Brazilian guitarist Joao Gilberto added minimalist piano by Antonio Carlos Jobim and guest vocals by Astrud Gilberto on this LP, codifying the bossa nova style for all time. Grammy-winner “The Girl from Ipanema” and smooth stunner “Corcovado” defined 60s cool in a Mad Men universe. The craze caught on and even Sinatra caught the bossa-nova bug.
Allez Mastodon, balance-moi tes meilleurs livres pour enfant de 4 ans !
Je précise que l'enfant en question est plus intéressée par ce que racontent les livres que par les dessins et que les récits longs ne lui font pas peur (j'ai presque envie de dire « au contraire ») !
Today is intense and it doesn't look like it's calming down anytime soon. So I need a #soundtrack to keep things manageable.
Planet of Lana is apparently a perfectly functional #puzzleplatformer game with cute overtones, so sayeth my friend by whom this #album was recommended. This #OST is... beautiful. Orchestral pieces normally have a natural grandeur and heft, but this manages to be delicate, deliberate.
Takeshi Furukawa knocked it outta the park. Bravo, sib. Good #music.
This week I opted to do something different. When going over to #HarvsIsland, I decided to recreate an #album cover. Here we have Lucky, Raymond, Filbert, & Tiansheng dressed as #Weezer from the cover of their self-titled album, aka the #BlueAlbum.
I really tried to capture the spirit of the outfits and the album cover here. The outfits were harder to capture than getting the room all blue.
Think I'll stick with a couple of themes from yesterday for #TonightsListening - a 'wintry' album and - why the hell not - by another female singer-songwriter.
So #NowPlaying is '50 Words For Snow' by Kate Bush.
Here's a two-minute sampler of my #album "Here Be Dragons." 🐉
11 tracks of #synthpop and #80s#rock and a bunch of other things. 9 different lead singers, all kinds of surprises and old school songwriting like bridges, solos, and changeups, and just for fun it ends with a 10-minute prog pop epic folk tale! 🤘
Do you do or have photo albums?
In the middle of the Digital Era, photo albums can be a breeze towards the older times....
