Show begins with a track by Renoise technical music guru It-Alien who may not be called Eye-Tea Alien, because his name does not come from Impulse Tracker nor Information Technology (nor Internet Things for that matter), but is a pun on word “Italian”.

Next, we play lots of different electronic music introduce couple of amazing albums and talk about the brand new release under Remixta netlabel.

Braintwister – Identity Matrix

The same day as this show was broadcast, Remixta netlabel released an album by Braintwister. The album contains four tracks of quite original Drum and Bass with lots of sub bass and mathematical rhythms.

I received the material quite long time ago and I was planning for a grandiose release, but I found myself short of time to do all the stuff required, so the release was postponed several months until I finally decided to just release it on bandcamp and let the music do the talking.

Great release nevertheless, and thanks to everyone who helped us to get it on the internet. If you enjoy it, show some love to Braintwister (kasmo) on renoise forums: http://www.renoise.com/board/index.php?showtopic=27228

Hitori Tori – Kinematics

“This collection of songs evokes the disorienting feeling of daily commutes on high speed trains in the Kansai region of Japan. The view out of the cabin window was an endless blur of bobbing telephone wires and slanted trees.”

In 1998 Julian La Brooy’s four track recorder was tragically destroyed. A sound tracker completely changed everything and Hitori Tori was born. Agitated breaks became combined with tweaked arpeggiated synth lines, and a few lugubrious tones were thrown into the background for good measure.

Early releases included tracks as part of the electronic duo Finch on the Sugarmonk Omniscience Complilation in 1999, followed by several electroacoustic tracks out on Luumu recordings. Fasp, another musical incarnation, released an album on the Nishi net-label in 2002. In 2010, Hitori Tori continues with his meticulously detailed productions releasing series of 8 digital singles on Balanced Records.

Having played shows in Japan and Canada, Hitori Tori currently performs and resides in Vancouver.

Hitori Tori is also one of the well known Renoise artists and is specially notable because of his amazing Renoise live skills using LividIndustry Ohm64. Read more about this and watch a video at Renoise In:Depth.

Makunouchi Bento – Swimé

Probably one of the best Renoise related albums from this year.  One of the most interesting Ambient albums of all time. Filled with atmospheric textures and strange sounds from very wide spectrum of superb acoustics.

Strange melodies mixed with animal voices, sounds of nature and city into psychotic composition with amazingly clear sound image which won’t leave anyones emotions untouched.

Definitely an album worth getting, and you can get it for free on Bandcamp:

Binärpilot – Nordland

Not really a Renoise album, but Binärpilot does use Renoise from time to time, and I just find his music great enough.

Binärpilot comes with a brand new album Nordland. Another 10 tracks of chiptune inspired dance music that just makes your feet move.

“Due to our symbiotic state, the memories of my host have begun seeping through. It comes to me in vivid fragments, saturated with the hopes and ideas of human adolescence. How beautiful it is to aspire, how delicate a process it is to construct an identity through pieces of idolatry and inspiration. Now, these are all memories I am happy to share. Reflections on abandonment, opposition, but most of all joy. Don’t forget to dance.”

The album is available in several different formats, some of them free, go check out the options at http://binaerpilot.no/

Kaizoku

Lots of time has passed since last show again. Lots of things happened during this period. Including the crash of my computer which put things off for some time. Even now I had technical problems which delayed the broadcast for an half an hour and made me go live with a bit unfinished set.  Sorry for the low volume on voiceover and some glitches in mixing. Going to be lot better next time!

Tracklist

1. Ankst – The Wicked (Damnation Remix by Cyvergence)
2. Kaizoku – Something In Blood
3. S-Wrong – Everybody Pump
4. Modlys – Det Nu (breakcore remix)
5. Sodiufas – Shhhhhhhhhhhh(h)
6. Saine – Rocket Science
7. D Fast – Liquid Cool
8. Braintwister – Identity Matrix
9. Beatslaughter – Frozen Dawn
10. Transient – Deep Robot
11. Keith303 – Thumbworker
12. Vivace – Zaaderdag
13. Amok – Endless Autumn

Renoise 2.6 has gone to beta

This show also celebrates the Renoise 2.6 going into beta. This time the tracker gets the long awaited scripting and extension capabilities. Lots of people are working on this right now, playing with the available tools and writing new ones. If you haven’t already, join the fun in Renoise forums.

Renoise also got a Long Sample Support (aka Autoseek) which makes it much easier to handle vocal takes, guitar riffs or any other kind of longer sound clips. The samples are still kept in the memory so one still can’t mix whole recording sessions, but this is not what renoise is meant for anyway.

As an interesting sidenote, Remixta is also broadcast and recorded using Renoise 2.6, it is used in the chain as effect processor and for mixing voiceover and the music. The bit unfortunate configuration this time was not the fault of Renoise (which performed perfectly) but my own misconfiguration due to limited time before going live.

Saine

Soundcloud

Soundcloud has grown to be the most important music distribution place for Renoise users. Many artists in this show have lots of great stuff up in the SoundCloud.

Saine for example, who Released one of the greatest Renoise albums “Break a Pattern” some time ago, has soundcloud page which has gained several new sets in last months.

From the set Elevator Music I played the track “Rocket Science”. The set has lots of nice downtempo dub-technoish music to Chill To. And yeah. It’s all free.

He also has just recently compiled another set Still Life which has more ambient, soundscape music.

Sodiufas has also a nice collection of tracks available on Soundcloud. This is where I acquired one of his latest tracks, Shhhhhhh. Although most of us now Sodiufas by his great ambient melodic soundscapes, this time he surprises us with more industrial and much more rougher sounding creation. Some people find this track bit irritable and disturbing, I find it pleasantly hairy and exciting. The dynamics and soundscapes could even be compared to the ones created by the grand master mr_mark_dollin on his Smargaid Maerd albums.

Talking about mr_mark_dollin, he has recently made his  albums available on Bandcamp for purchase. I wanted to play some of his tracks too on that occasion, but lost all of them due to hardware crash, and didn’t feel like purchasing them again. Which doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do that.

Also this show is dedicated to Renoise 2.5 which was released just few days ago. If you haven’t already go get your copy now, the best Music making software of all times!
