This is a record +7" released by strange beats duo KADAPAT from Bali, Indonesia, from DJ bar SUB STORE in Koenji, Tokyo. An experiment that fuses electronics with traditional instruments such as jegog (bamboo harp) and gundel (glockenspiel). Contains 7 gamelan music. Below is the explanation from the label. "KADAPAT is a music project by Yogi and Barga based in Bali, Indonesia. Using Balinese white/black magic as a spirit in experimental electronic gamelan music with the aim of conveying traditions and urban legends. Getting to know KADAPAT means meeting young millennials from the outskirts of Bali who have been indoctrinated with gamelan and its traditions from a young age. In addition to their technical proficiency, they play gamelan in Banjar traditional and religious ceremonies. Banjar is a region that is authorized to regulate and manage its community based on local traditions and manners. They fiercely confront conservative norms and their transgressive cosmologies. As millennials, they are also embedded in urban culture, technology, and Balinese cosmopolitanism. These hybrid identities become increasingly complex as they experience the formal art education dimension of the Western educational system. These elements are embodied in KADAPAT's work included on this album. It is intertwined in a network of perception and ridicule. Each element or texture has an agreed-upon sound, but in a sense it often appears independently to signal its presence. Overall, the compositions on this album sound political. Radical imagination is expressed within the complex conditions of local customs. Experiments are a process of trial and error. Will testing Kadapat performances in banjars, art schools, underground clubs, beach parties, metal music festivals, and weddings provoke extreme controversy? It's worth a try. Just talk.

This is a cassette independently released in March 2024 by experimental musicians Beachers from London, England. Contains 3 minimal music songs created using only the sounds of the office phone. *Please feel free to contact us as we will send you the digital sound source free of charge.The following is an explanation by the artist himself. "The only sound on 'Off the hook' is the phone at my day job. Late at night, after everyone had gone home, I was finishing something, and the sound came from everywhere. It cut the air for a moment. Then it suddenly stopped. Then I heard a series of beeps, like someone was dialing. I was surprised at first, but then I saw the papers on my work desk. While you're at it, you realize you've taken your phone off the hook.This routine of a hold tone followed by a fake dial doesn't work when you pick up the phone. Maybe trying to get attention, maybe to fill an awkward silence, I took the phone off the hook and put it back on, recording it in and out of my office in central London. The same routine was recorded, with additional noise added, and the recording was cut, moved, and processed to create the eight tracks of Off the Hook, but nothing else was done. I haven't added anything. It's mostly delays and pitch shifts. The last track is a full playback of the original phone call. It feels appropriate to me, the phone call itself, the situation, and the location. There's something. But I'm not sure what it said. You have your own idea. -------------------------- Ask us for digital...
