Them

Taken from ‘Music for the Motion Picture Victoria’ – released by Erased Tapes on June 15th, 2015 ORDER LP/CD/Digital here: www.erasedtapes.com/store/index/ERATP071 ORDER DL via iTunes here: http://snip.ftpromo.net/victoria ABOUT: Nils Frahm has always said that he’s just waiting for something real special when being asked if he would ever score the music for a film. And that’s exactly what German director Sebastian Schipper presented to him with his one-take feature ‘Victoria’. Filmed in Berlin, Victoria’s plot sees a runaway party girl, who's asked by three friendly men to join them as they hit the town, but their wild night of partying suddenly turns into a bank robbery as the music changes from techno to subdued piano sounds. For the recording session at Studio P4 in Berlin, Frahm enlisted the help of long-time collaborator and cellist Anne Müller, violist Viktor Orri Árnason and ambient artist Erik K. Skodvin of Deaf Center on guitar. ‘Victoria’ won the Berlinale Film Festival prize for Best Cinematography and has also received seven nominations including Best Soundtrack for the Deutscher Filmpreis – Germany’s highest movie award, and will be released in cinemas across Germany on June 11th with plans to release it in the UK and other countries soon.

fascinating device that leverages the acoustic elements of drumming and combines them with triggering samples, respecting the spacial characteristics (nerdy but neat)

Brave Wave Productions

posted July 15, 2015 #

Josh clued me in to the existence of Brain Wave - a record label dedicated to releasing original compositions, thoughtful compilations and soundtracks under the mantle of chiptunes and electronica. You want to hear the Shovel Knight soundtrack? They got that. You want to hear original music from Keiji Yamahishi, the man behind Ninja Gaiden and Tecmo Bowl's sounds? Easily covered. Oh, and World 1-2 won Best Remix Album from VGMO, no small feat.

Even if you're not into chiptune or videogame inspired tunes, browse the site to check out the artwork - it spans a wide range of styles. In other words, something for everybody.

Embroidered Zoetrope

posted July 14, 2015 #

This project encourages viewers to watch and engage with animation physically. Discs were created with animated sequences embroidered onto their surface. They have been designed to be played on standard turntables and their shape and size is inherited from 10" vinyl records. The animation is activated when a strobe light illuminates the discs in sync with the embroidered frames of animation. This work was completed for my degree project at the ANU School of Art in 2013. --- Music: 'Educator' by Melt http://meltcanberra.tumblr.com --- Check out my other work: Instagram: http://instagram.com/elliotschultz Tumblr: http://blog.elliotschultz.com Website: http://www.elliotschultz.com

Specimen

posted July 14, 2015 #

Specimen is an iOS game of color recognition that takes place inside a petri dish. The surrounding canvas of your dish is a particular color and you pick the specimen that matches. Sounds simple but once you get into some more subtle palette changes, it gets quite challenging. I was fortunate enough to play a beta version and got quite hooked. Now it's officially available and I think everyone should dive in.

The team behind the game includes Erica Gorochow and Upright T-Rex Music - so there's the added bonus of supporting awesome people by playing a fun, free, game.

Edison's Rival Birthday

posted July 14, 2015 #

Today, in 2009, Codaphonic released the EP Edison's Rival via my own yk records. It was the second release for the project and I'm still proud of how it turned out - great screenprinted artwork from BOSS Construction and five wonderful pop diddies.
Over time I think I've become partial to Mrs. Pepper but my love for the horns of Knock, Knock has never subsided.

You can hear the album over on Bandcamp, Rdio or Spotify. Please celebrate this great little EP's birthday by giving it a spin.

Google Contributor

posted July 14, 2015 #

Google's Deep Dream is getting all the attention right now but the behemoth also recently launched a bit more altruistic project called Contributor that's worth taking a look at. It's one part crowdfunding and one part ad blocker - you agree to contribute a predetermined amount of dollars per month (and to visit a few participating sites like The Onion) and instead of banner ads, you get blanked out pixel patterns. Your contribution directly removes the ads and contributes money to the participating creator sites. It's invite only for now but it seems rather appealing.

The Wolfpack

posted July 13, 2015 #

I'd been reading about The Wolfpack for awhile now - a documentary about a family of teenage boys living in the lower east side of New York, very rarely allowed to ever leave their apartment and sustaining themselves on a steady diet of movies. The trailer paints an understandably sad and oppressive picture but the movie itself shows a real triumph of will for these kids. They seem amazingly well socialized (on the whole) and incredibly creative with their tactics for swede'ing scenes from their favorite films.

It's in theaters, on iTunes, Amazon and the other usual suspects. Highly recommend. If you've seen it already, be sure to watch this interview with director Crystal Moselle and Mirror Heart, the short film that the brothers wrote and directed.

Creepy Co.

posted July 13, 2015 #

I acknowledge that going too far down the path of nostalgia can be a trap - a mindset that prevents you from allowing anything new to be appreciated. However, a few nods now and again to the bits and pieces of the pop culture zeitgeist are certainly appreciated. The folks at Creepy Co are walking that fine line pretty effectively. The Divine and Dr Frank Furter pieces are straightforward homages (although creative in their own way) and the drip pins are, obviously, nice sendups to genres on the whole. Definitely going to keep my eye on their future original creations.
