Description: the Picturesque Episodes is a one man’s, Darius’ Gerulis, cosmic-rock/ambient/neo-classical project from Lithuania. Ranging from lullaby-like string ambiance to noisy repetitive breakdowns and accidental noise records, the Picturesque Episodes covers much musical ground and include many diverse music genres with exceptional attention to the narrative structure of music. The project released 13 albums through years 2009-2012, with more coming. The artist himself defines his music as “cosmic” and defines himself as an instrument of translating the universe into forms of music. It should be noted that within different releases the artist is attempting to create a universe with it’s own set of rules, mostly dealing with recurring themes and song-titles in those releases.

Linear Bells - Le Cavalier Bleu

Linear Bells - Le Cavalier Bleu 

Genre: Ambient
Format: mp3 | 320 kbps

Country: France

Size: 98 Mb

Label: Hidden Vibes Netlabel

 

Tracklist: 

01. Dogs and Guns

02. A Treasure

03. There Is a Mountain

Description: David Teboul goes by the moniker Linear Bells. He is a composer, multi-instrumentalist and sound artist based in Nantes, France. His music is a mix between, vintage instruments, sound manipulations and field recordings, all primarily created with acoustic and analogic instruments. Teboul starting to produce sounds in the mid 90′s under the moniker of Embark. He created one of the first french net-labels named Acrylik, which was involved in electronica production and both digital and vinyl distribution. 

LE CAVALIER BLEU is inspired by Kandinski painting organization “Der Blaue Reiter”.
As the Der Blaue Reiter Almanac essays and theorizing with composer Arnold Schoenberg indicate, Kandinsky also expressed the communion between artist and viewer as being available to both the senses and the mind . Hearing tones and chords as he painted, Kandinsky theorized that (for example), yellow is the colour of middle C on a brassy trumpet; black is the colour of closure, and the end of things; and that combinations of colours produce vibrational frequencies, akin to chords played on a piano. Kandinsky also developed a theory of geometric figures and their relationships—claiming, for example, that the circle is the most peaceful shape and represents the human soul.

This release is a blurry vision of a tale where you could meet this dark rider overlapping his blue horse, enjoying great mountain landscapes and mysterious forests, colors and darkness.

This was achieve using, guitars, keyboards, bells, field recordings, bass.
It was recorded and mastered between april and august 2012.

Martin Lukanov & Mytrip - Two

Martin Lukanov & Mytrip - Two

Genre: Piano/Drone/Mod. Classical

Format: mp3 | 320 kbps

Country: Bulgaria

Size: 53 Mb

Tracklist:

01. ml-s mt-e

02. mt-l ml-r 

03. ml p mt 1 

04. mt-s ml-e 

05. mt-r ml-l 

06. ml p mt 2

Description: not quite usual piano instrumental. A collaboration of Martin Lukanov (who is both a clasically trained pianist and a sound artist working in the fields of electroacoustic music and noise) and Mytrip (you gotta know this outfit for the split album with EUS, previously posted) seem not to aim for becoming another project, composing instrumental tunes in vein of the whole bunch of modern classical composers. "Two" is a kind of album, where you have to listen between notes, if you want to find the real beauty. Minimal and subtle piano, played by Martin Lukanov on the album, is very calming and gives a very different perception of this instrument. I'd go for the term "ambient piano" here, cause in this case piano really works for creating the ambience, but not the actual tune going throughout the whole composition. It works well with all the textures and droning layers added by Mytrip, and sometimes just brings the sonic pleasure from listening this to the highest point. The leading motif in the release is the dual nature of the process of collaboration, it reaches every part of the process, from the length of the pieces, through the total duration of the work, from the construction and location of the artists in the tracks, to the visual representation of the album.
