CD Esoterik

Oh! This is exactly what I’ve be looking for all my life.I don’t known if this is music. I don’t know what it is. There so many layers of going deep into the material.A way to live: Escape capture.Apply pure spontaneous investigative logic to the material at hand.Restraint.A radical openness to be in dialogue with the thing you observe. A feedback pieceA piece for wolf tones A piece with wordsIt’s so punk sounding. So raw, so organic. I can’t think of anythingFrench that sounds like that. I don’t know whatit is. It’s so much about the material of the real.A store outing:The space whistles. It felt daunting.Then it’s the most natural thing in the world— We can not bridge it, because it is inside. It’s undeniable. A person who makes the one song their entire life. From birth to death they’ve been doing that, the needle that plays the universes song. If they wantto come for us, they can but we’re making this anyways. To have that as radical praxis. There’s obviously something at work there. It’s a resonating machine. A flat affect transmission. It’s got all the ingredients.I should do this every goddamn Sunday. We listened to:1. Eliane Radigue – Opus 17: Number 172. Eliane Radigue for Charles Curtis – Naldjorlak (Paris, 2006)3.

Where this starts, you are going to be so surprised where it ends.I’m just going to pecker my way into this one: CupsChairsFlatwareBucketPop-top.You are over there.There’s just so many directions you can take from the cups. So, Sell everything and just buy three machinesIts just so basic—commit to the bitYou press a button and a sound comes out. You press the button again and the sound goes out.On and off. On and off.I’d like to sometimes live in this world where just I live in an empty roomWith just this bedWith this couch on the floorAnd this table with like two machinesAnd I just like turn on the soundturn off the sound.And turn on the soundturn off the sound.And I have only three sounds to work with.There’s this moiré kind of thing happening There’s a lot of crevices to exploreSo this is kind of this idea.This kind of thing like “Whoah… how far is this going to go?”(Please wait for a couple of hours for someone to call you).We are in a new timeline.It’s a winning proposalIt’s very attractiveIt’s great for when you have people over who don’t like musicThat’s the goddam cups again.We could go for an hour fading in and fading out like thatWe listened to:1.

We are joined by the magical and sylvan Catherine Debard, artist known as Tenses, Ylang Ylang, 1/2 of Mue, and many other great pieces of the Montréal tape underground.Fruits everywhere. Cushions. Luxury. A lot of drums.Quarantines are broken:Girls play guys music. Guys playing girls. An awful YouTube doc on ‘unrecorded mysterious sounds’. What is Netflix missing? Definition hiding in unexpected places:Dense air, dead horses, radioactivity. Who’s going next down the waterslide? It all feels like momentum at the end.The eternal music? Sing along with your appliances and the world is a better place. The harmonics change. It speeds up and slows itself down.And where are we now physically? Colorado—trying to wrap ourselves around space. Yet things start bubbling in the back. It’s really jarring. We're starting fresh: A series of beer caps strung together at the end of a broom handle. A raw condensed emotion. There’s a lot of space. It might go off the rails. What ARE people doing today with their charming MIDI sound palette and their post-prog attitude?You’ll get the point in 10 minutes. I don’t know what to say. “of which of which it's of then which is it not that’s." It's almost a sports feeling. I think it’s the best feeling. James Schidlowsky invokes the greatest corrugaphone performance of all time. You get glazed over. It's like falling down the stairs but you get hooked on it. Stories are nice but sometimes you need microclimates… situations with stuff going on, just playing it out. It shouldn’t logically be able to end. It’s a glazing.We listened to:1.

A year end celebration with the larger circle.The theme: Terrifying in a beautiful instead of a dangerous way.We start the episode under the icecap. We celebrate life in a subaquatic hydrophone terror attack by ghosts who remind us of the life-giving force of death in a connected world. It sounds joyful. The Book of Revelation, written by stylophone, with no consonants, only vowels.Intentional connections that open onto unintentional ones, via over-modulated saxophones.We spend time unpacking "destitution", then Mark brings the esoterik cannon, full stop. Mahler leads to criminally neglected spiritual visitations from the Chicago dollar bins.Solo unknowability ensues. Jacob drinks a huge milkshake. The other way of making music. The fundamental music: The one person with their instrument once the energy grid collapses.Neon hunks fashioning Flemish dance-folk stringed instruments on homesteads. Moskos suddenly appears. A very slow computer processing in a yurt, creating a virtual Borzeix. You don’t show up? You get represented anyway.The world moves in predictable ellipses: Michigan > Africa > Montreal. The servers run hot making sound design from the future. Roger brings the now sound by looking backwards and forwards at the same time.Octavia Butler-style benevolent aliens oversee the episode and monitor the controlled feedback.Finally, we visit that guy in a basement at GRM for 25 years still trying to make a computer play like Charlie Parker.2025: Strange resonance and bloody fingers. 2026: Things Have Got to Change!We listend to:1.

This is not what I signed up for, this is exactly what I signed up for.Legendary experimental film maker and the perfect person to be on any podcast, Mark Loeser, shows up at all the usual tables, in a t-shirt that says Aztec camera. Enthusiasm beats considered intellectualism every single minute.We learn through lost super 8 cartridges that fascination is the root of all suffering. Yet, anything is possible! Love, sure, is a good example. Another is Alice Coltrane’s visitation by Stravinsky’s ghost to be told about Jacob’s episode pick... not to mention the wire and light John Coltrane.Truly we are living in the best of all possible worlds.We start the show with foot fetish snuff films. This leads through some pzm mic cables to an understanding how the things that attracted you become you. Vancouver in the 90s: Feldman tapes stolen from the Pofi bar while the holes get drilled in spoons.Japanese noise at Edison electricDance club bass leakage into Dixieland inns makes microsound better while the glasses sway and free jazz combatsPlus... toilets on the Fourth of July.Eastern zero's counterpoints:Cinemontas delivered up spiral staircases. Projections on parketts, projections through mirrors, projections on canadian tires. The drugs hitting too hard too fast / crickets on the Ohio Speako WioNeighbours learn suffering as the first step on the paths of enlightenment.JAPAN shows up to prove that Maher is the greatest punk of all. Fuck ingenious efficient results based chaos we want real ego death!CAIRO shows up to bring the post punk infinite fire. To end, Saint George appears as the collective warmth- a power greater than itself - to close with the sound of the cosmos.Musicians reckoning with life: Where does listening start, what it transforms. The only way to end is the fade out. Perfection = the thoughtfulness of the organizing principle and the looseness with which it is applied.Or as Sam Shalabi asks: “are you guys musicians…actually?” We listend to:1.

Another early Sunday. Leon asks the infernal 8-ball what’s up. Flipped over, it says: go both speeds at once.When we take its advice, the sun is driven poorly by the wild son. The earth scorches. The father smites the son. The cycle continues—through the Iraq War, maybe all the way to 2025.We move to frozen Canada and double down on the vowels.The CD Esoterik exclusive track hits the sweet spot where the snake eats its own tail, and recursive logic extrapolates toward its ultimate goal: ecstatic ghost hum production.Beginner’s mind is the key to keeping the Kaoss Pad unlimited.The universe explodes into so many layers of simulation— and then: Whitney Houston confetti, powered by a nuanced critique of the colonialist anthropological instinct.We close our trip to the Canadas in the ultimate hall of Kierkegaardian expensive cassette mirrors, to look at some paintings somewhere near Niagara Falls. Back to Brooklyn for delicate shredding and something new with guitar.You can do it still!We visit Japan for the hollow sound, where the dishwasher brings the responsible vocal shred. Something short shows us the bubbles we live in.And: New York hates you.Finally, a convincing case that live music is better than recorded music can ever be.Episode warning:Do not listen while driving or operating heavy machinery.We want problems.

In which we are joined by one of the OG inspirations for Esoterik, esteemed blogger, substacker, brilliant writer and legendary ear-having proprietor of Blastitude, Larry “Fuzz-O” Dolman.We discuss the economics of the 30-600 split, Utopias and Distopias. The openess of open access. Cassandra Miller vs Cassandra Wilson. The 80% (corrected) EPA scale delivers short form long form. We get over the Robert Wyatt hump by mineralizeing Leon. Fishing with a sausage, an apple and a sandwich lands a Ukrainian architect tipping the Zulawski meter into the red. The vibe shift clause is invoked leading us back to the trucker funk, down the deep history of the ugliest edits to the perfect bpm. Jeff Mills shows up, as he does, to complicate the narrative. After that, we hit the tornado coffee shop bringing the go-go back. We close on the hopeful resilient shimmering pickled herring of 1989.As usual we get 1/91st of the way to the 6000 cassettes in the kiosk,It is what it is. There’s no changing it.

Violence is easy. Nostalgia, complexity, they all are easy to make a case for. The beautiful? It’s impossible to approach. Yet, we try, without intending to, because it’s Sunday morning and music speaks directly on Sunday morning, and absolute unmixed attention is prayer.Melody. That singer from orang, what’s her name? Simone Weil. So much control over something uncontrollable. The nations foremost player bowing instead of plucking. How rawness affects the opening of ears. Fractal sand that egress the vibes to create the oyster and the pearl. Then, a short sailing trip back to the gradient. What about tomorrow? We got up in the morning and we had to eat again. It’s a disaster by god. Too short soulful collage from a small little country. Better. Richer. More complex sonic youth cover closing the gradient in perfect tone but still getting hurt by songs with drums recorded miles away. Beauty kills. Beauty is the murderer.What we learned: To speak better: Talk less. Make music more.We listend to:1. Henryk Górecki feat. Beth Gibbons, Krzysztof Penderecki – Symphony No. 3 Final Movement2.

Amazing sound artist, label runner, contextual one-time author, unlandlord and friend since Esoterik days Anne-F Jacques joins us for our tenth (TEN!) episode. We start with 2-3 notes and the inimitable pacing of Mo Tucker, then go pure timbre and tape when actually it’s lots of notes and no melody.Lots of space between notes makes the notes feel less note.Ellen Fullman ditches long strings and creates rainbows in Poland. Boiling speakers bring the montreal rains.We discover that China is a big place and there is a lot of good stuff happening there right now. Rotterdam however is boring as hell.
