Podcast appearances and mentions of carl stone

While the new world struggles to be born, people all round this dying old world cannot help but keep making music. Too many, frankly. Please stop. Anyway, I cannot help but keep playing you all this incredible music, postpunkindustrialdubjunglegamelanglitchjazzfolkclassical, as those in the know call it *taps nose* LISTEN AGAIN to the music of the spheres. Stream on demand from fbi.radio, podcast here. Laeter – Isolate [Laeter Bandcamp] Laeter – Leibowitz [Laeter Bandcamp] Liam Bosecke is based on Kaurna country, in Adelaide, and he’s founded a creative community called Empty Frames that aims to raise mental health awareness. His latest album as Laeter is released via that platform, but is of course available on Bandcamp (and in a handsome CD edition!) Blanket Doubt is a wonderful thing that kind of answers the question, “What if indietronica except slow-moving industrial dub?” Intense distorted drum machines and synthetic screeches underscore almost-spoken vocals, or shudder and crash under New Order-esque synth melodies. Pure perverted pleasure. Damos Room – All Shall Go [Long Gone/Bandcamp] Damos Room – Gullet (Dirty Protest) [Long Gone/Bandcamp] Last time I played Damos Room on the show was a mere month ago. I wrote at the time: I’m not sure who Damos is or what’s in their Room, but signs point to it being three guys: Luke Miles, Nicholas Elson & Huw Oleskar. I’ve just found out (because they told me, nothing underhand) that Huw Oleskar is also known as Elijah Minnelli, responsible for some of the most interesting and lovely dub-folk hybrids in recent times, ostensibly under the auspices of Breadminster County Council. As for Damos Room, you can find a series of fantastic, weirdly-shaped releases on their Bandcamp, including a mixtape of two bizarre 40-minute radio pieces, some quasi-singles of abstracted dub/spoken-word/electronics, and the experimental electronics of their collaboration with rapper LYAM, which I played on this show a few years back. So, a month ago I played something from Walk With The Militia, a vaguely-album-shaped item that wasn’t actually their new album – rather it’s a mixtape, entirely in keeping with the mystery what all this is about. It collects – I said – a whole lot of weird shit, but it’s all dub-based experimental electronics, with Minnelli’s distinctive spoken word & low-key singing, odd radio interludes and noise bits and so on. It’s really fantastic. So how about All Shall Go, their new album which is really released now? Well, it’s just as murky, weird-shaped and all as the prior mixtape and earlier works. And as with earlier works, there are also some head-nodding beats and bass, and tracks where Oleskar’s voice chants and sings in nearly melodic fashion. Don’t expect pop, dancehall or grime here, but do expect music that’s evocative, challenging, ancient and modern. Do go deep, but don’t miss that mixtape, or 2020’s Commencement either. Carl Gari – Pick’n’Peel [Molten Moods/Bandcamp] Most of us know German band Carl Gari from their incredibly strong albums made with Egyptian singer/trumpeter/poet/composer Abdullah Miniawy, on AD93 and Amphibian Records. Between those two releases, the band & singer released a live album on Molten Moods, and it’s that label that Carl Gari return to now for their self-titled album, forthcoming in June. This is the first single (by the time of writing I’ve heard the second), and it’s just what the doctor ordered – dark, insistent minimal drum’n’bass if it was produced by Depeche Mode circa Songs of Faith and Devotion, a very specific reference that probably only makes sense to me 🖤 Fez The Kid & BRUK – Original Secret [RuptureLDN/Bandcamp] Two young junglists from Bristol tearin’ it up on this new EP, their first for the iconic jungle-revival label RuptureLDN. These guys really know their jungle originals and are making the kind of tracks that wouldn’t have been out of place in an East London club circa ’93. Both Fez The Kid & BRUK have a number of EPs to their names, but have also worked together for a while, and DJ back2back as well. Turn up yr subs and feel the bass pressure while the snares go renegade. Rrrrrrrince out! A.Fruit – I Left You [YUKU/Bandcamp] A.Fruit – Choice [YUKU/Bandcamp] Anna Derlemenko aka A.Fruit is a Ukrainian music producer, born in Moscow, but her family relocated to Spain after Russia’s war on Ukraine. She co-runs the Distorted Barcelona club and does a lot of music production training & tips on her Patreon – in fact, the first track I played tonight is the subject of a full track breakdown there, and she’s shared the full Ableton project. Her productions are consistently adventurous, mixing up genres and manipulating sounds while remaining dancefloor friendly, and that’s certainly the case on her new EP Choice for the one & only YUKU. She’s an artist I’ll never not recommend. upsammy & Valentina Magaletti – Superimposed [PAN/Bandcamp] upsammy & Valentina Magaletti – It Comes To An End [PAN/Bandcamp] Dutch producer & DJ upsammy (who visited Sydney recently for Soft Centre) has previously worked the built & natural environment into her music: Germ in a Population of Buildings in 2023 created a whole environment of hallucinatory fauna and automata, repurposing IDM in a similar-but-different way to Eora’s own gi. Valentina Magaletti is one of the most versatile drummer/percussionists working at the moment, found in the postpunk-electronica band Moin, but also remaking kuduro & batida with Afro-Portuguese producer Nídia, a kind of postpunk dub with electronic producer Al Wootton, and plenty of other avant-garde stuff. upsammy & Magaletti’s collaborative album Seismo (yes, it means “earthquake”) came out of a commission from the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, for which they sampled the sounds of the museum itself, using its spaces as percussive surfaces, and much of the joy of the album comes from the blurring of live drums and other acoustic rhythms with electronic programming and manipulation. Around & amongst the percussion are snippets of voice (a callback Mageletti’s work with Raime and Moin, albeit applied very differently), strange fragmentary samples of guitar & bass, piano notes stretched thin, slow melodic synths. Mostly delicate, mostly the opposite of an earthquake, these are musical giants striding across our world while imps dance in their footprints. It’s a wonderful album. Hoavi – Song of the Forgotten [Peak Oil] Hoavi – Colossus [Peak Oil] And speaking of imps dancing, Russian producer Hoavi is one of the exemplars of music that sounds like skittering insects and tumbling waterfalls, drawing jungle-ish IDM into dub technoid waters. His second album for Peak Oil, Architectonics, takes those aspects into newer territories, with a bank of samples of percussive sounds from around his house, and inspiration taken from Indonesian gamelan and minimalist composition. For all this though, it’s vintage Hoavi – rhythmically complex, deep sound design. Genius. Foote/Dickow – Underwater Welder [Geographic North/Bandcamp] Peak Oil is run by two Bria/ons – Brion Brionson is the “o” guy, and the other is Brian Foote, who’s been kranky‘s media guy forever as well as running various labels (including Peak Oil just above here!) and playing in various bands. Brian’s also a connoisseur of IDM, electronica & rave in all its variations (solo as Leech), and here he teams up with Paul Dickow, best known as Strategy, maker of much dubwise, ambient & technoid musics and himself co-founder of the Community Library label. High Cube is their first outing together as a duo, and you can feel their shared musical heritage in its bones. Skittering IDM glitchbeats hover above a dub techno skeleton, and there’s a jazzy sensibility to the keyboards. Charming. Richard Pike – III. “August” [Salmon Universe/Bandcamp] Sydney’s Richard Pike, alum of PVT, is now based in London. He can be found in various ensembles, including with Joe Quirke, with whom he co-runs the Salmon Universe label, and under his own name has been making ambient-techno-hybrid-orchestral soundtracks for TV. Outside of that, he’s released solo music under the alias DEEP LEARNING on Oxtail Recordings, based around subtly rhythmic glitchy loops, but now returns to his own name for album that mixes late-night piano and glitchy dub-techno. It’s not surprising to discover that the creation of this music was directly triggered by the death of Ryuichi Sakamoto, but the music takes darker paths than the Japanese master. The full album’s out later in May, and the last single brings in something of the jungle-meets-dub techno we’ve heard a lot of tonight. Laurence Pike – Guardians of Memory [Balmat/Bandcamp] It’s lovely to find Laurence Pike – brother to Richard above – coming out on Philip Sherburne & Albert Salinas‘ Balmat label in late May. Pike was drummer in Pivot/PVT and Triosk, and the hallucinatory melding of live jazz and micro-sampled loops has remained central to his DNA since the start. There’s a trickery at the heart of Possible Utopias for Jazz Quintet, hinted at with “possible”: while there are guests on these tracks, it’s never a jazz quintet, and still predominantly Laurence solo. The “utopias” denote an idea of freedom which Pike is reaching for, in continuity with his last album The Undreamt-of Centre – that people are not atomised individuals but exist interdependently with their environment. And for all that this is a solo album, Pike begins the album with a substantial, sumptuous feature from Eora/Sydney pianist Novak Manojlovic. Utopian indeed. David Norland – E-Car Soul reNYX [Denovali] English composer David Norland, who lives between LA & London, is best known as a soundtrack writer for film and stage, as well as a composer of electronic and experimental choral music. He has an album coming via Denovali called La Source, which is not a soundtrack, but incorporates choral music into its beat-driven electronic framework. Strangely, I didn’t hear the single “E-Car Soul” as choral, but the “reNYX” by UK vocal/electronic collective NYX reworks it into their image, with vocal harmonies and rearranged electronics. Carl Stone & Asuna – Ulna As Ancestor [Room40/Bandcamp] A pioneer of live laptop music, Carl Stone has been at it since the 1980s, and has had a renaissance since Unseen Worlds released a series of his early music on triple LP sets. Stone has for a long time lived between LA and Japan, and on this new CD he’s collaborating with Japanese artist Asuna Arashi, whose toy instruments are sampled and processed by Stone and then handed by to Arashi for her to rework and… send back to Stone. With all these layers of processing, it’s not often easy to make out the original toy instruments, but it’s pretty immersive, experimental but friendly. In keeping with a lot of Stone’s own work, the titles are all anagrams of “Carl Stone Asuma”, all of which are unreasonably good (“A Nacreous Slant”? “Nascent Arousal”!) Loom & Thread – Spheres [Macro/Bandcamp] A few years ago, German jazz trio Loom & Thread released their debut album Island Grammar on macro rec. Pianist Tom Schneider is known as “frontman” of the live techno act KUF, playing as lead instrument the sampler. On Loom & Thread’s debut, Schneider at least played piano primarily, albeit sampled and processed live, as were the double bass of Tobi Fröhlich and the drums of Daniel Klein. For their follow-up Bandcamp, Schneider is well and truly a sampler-player (although yes, piano’s in there too), triggering & manipulating samples of two saxophonists and two vibraphone players (one of whom is drummer Daniel Klein). The samples’ use can range from chaotic scatter to undulant layers, around which is constructed a form of contemporary jazz. It’s weirder than their first album, but just as enjoyable. You can see them playing some of this live here, with Fröhlich also alternating between double bass & sampler. Christian Wallumrød Ensemble – Not new to [Aspen Edities/Bandcamp] It’s seems like yesterday – well OK, it was only last week – when I was talking about the richness of the Norwegian (and generally, Nordic) music scene(s), highlighting among others the stunning new solo album from saxophonist, singer, composer etc Espen Reinertsen. Reinertsen’s album was released on SusannaSonata, run by the artist known as Susanna or Susanna and the Magical Orchestra, who is also Susanna Wallumrød. She’s the youngest of a family of musicians – as well as their cousin, jazz pianist David Wallumrød, her brother Fredrik Wallumrød is a drummer of mainly rock & pop, and the oldest of the lot is pianist Christian Wallumrød (born in 1971 – Susanna was born in 1979), a renowned jazz pianist & keyboard player, whose eponymous Ensemble have released a series of albums on ECM Records. Christian & Fredrik also release music made of drum machines & synths as Brutter (also here) – glitchy, arhythmic synthetic grooves. Anyway, last week I remarked on the uncanny beauty of Reinertsen’s album, and there’s something similarly bewitching, gorgeous but slightly wrong about the music on the Christian Wallumrød Ensemble’s latest album Non Sonett, released by Belgian post-folk/jazz label Aspen Edities. The label specialises in acoustic experimental music by and large, but does slip sideways into electronics at times, and so does this latest album, where minimalist jazz compositions sidle up to Norwegian folk and haunted electronics, while remaining utterly restrained throughout. You may think this would sound cold & difficult, but it’s not: it’s engrossing and delightful, like Penguin Cafe Orchestra recording Talk Talk’s last albums, Keith Jarrett jamming Sunn O))), Henry Purcell discovering free jazz. If you only listen to one Norwegian jazz/folk record this week, make it this one (but don’t stop there). tokesmo – 02.02 [tokesmo Bamdcamp] tokesmo – 01 [tokesmo Bandcamp] Andrea B of doom/psych/metal trio Morkobot is tokesmo, a project in which he combines field recordings and found sounds with electronics. Two EPs launch the project; on tksm 01 it’s more sound-art and noise than rhythms, while tksm 02 transforms found sounds into percussive instruments for its IDM-meets-industrial beats. Whitney Johnson, Lia Kohl, Macie Stewart – paper folding | disappearing [International Anthem/Bandcamp] Whitney Johnson, Lia Kohl, Macie Stewart – laundry | blood [International Anthem/Bandcamp] Last year I played a track from a trio of Chicago-based women who were all string players and singers – in fact, I loved it so much I played it in Part 2 of my Best of 2025. Whitney Johnson on viola, Lia Kohl on cello and Macie Stewart on violin don’t just all sing – they all operate various tape machines, into which they feed their sounds and alchemically transmute their playing & singing into dusty loops. You can see this gorgeous transformation happening in real time in this video. Last year’s “stone | piece” was one partially improvised composition that’s part of the BODY SOUND album now released by Chicago (post-?)jazz institution International Anthem. There’s a surprising variety of sound here – string drones melting into tape hiss are part of it, but so are plucked prepared cello, loops glitched through manipulated recording heads, deconstructed folk melodies and quasi-classical accompaniments to angelic singing, squalling loops played at triple-time and roaring bass as the cello is pitched down multiple octaves. An extraordinary album like no other. Hara Alonso – A Second is a Choir (feat. Lia Kohl) [FUU/Bandcamp] Lia Kohl also turns up as one guest on the brilliant new EP Music of Many Nows from Stockholm-based Spanish sound-artist Hara Alonso. Here, Alonso combines accidental and casual recordings of life going by, combined with recordings of a nearby choir, a found piano and a couple of guests, and makes beautifully cracked vignettes, much deeper musically than this method would suggest. Honestly this couldn’t be more Utility Fog, and I love it so much. Daniel O’Toole – Breathing Colour [Cascade Rumble Records] Naarm-based artist & musician Daniel O’Toole was based here in Eora until a few years back, and was responsible for a lot of well-loved street art under the name Ears. Accompanying that were a few albums of funky instrumental hip-hop as Captain Earwax, but these days Daniel is emphasising the more abstract, gallery-friendly side of his art – gorgeous colour gradients and textures that you can sample here – and musically he’s making incredible custom-built instruments alongside his own strings, keyboard playing, percussion etc: check out the particle plate and the particle drum. Hand-made gestural instruments like this are at the core of O’Toole’s new album Outer Magnolia, but equally there’s a lot of acoustic sounds here – folktronica but not like your Daddy made it. Euan Alexander Millar-McMeeken – Nothing Moves In Me [Sleep In The Fire Records] London-based Scottish musician Euan Alexander Millar-McMeeken has recorded a lot of solo ambient music as glacis, and led indie/folk band The Kays Lavelle for many years. He has a substantial number of collaborative projects, many of them duos, all of them wonderful: Graveyard Tapes with Matthew Collings and Civic Hall with Craig Tattersall, Bird Battles with Jesse Narens and now Yoal with Satomimagae. In 2024, Euan released his first album under his full name, All The Weather Of The Human Heart, a deeply moving work that’s a meditation on loss, in which the central vocals & piano are cracked & smudged through digital & analogue means. Similar approaches to sound design are found on the solo follow-up Framed Insects – fragile songs and tape hiss interrupted by distorted beats or glitched into strange structures. Just gorgeous.

Carl Stone is one of the pioneers of live computer music, having used computers in live performance since 1986. Hailed by the Village Voice as “the king of sampling,” today he divides his time between Japan and Los Angeles between his busy international touring schedule. In the interview, we talk about the genesis of his sampling practice dating back to his time preserving LPs on cassette as a student at CalArts, issues of cultural meaning in sampling, and live computer music performance.

Carl Stone has been a huge influence on me – his work transported me from “Interested in that music tech stuff for making pop tunes” to “Let's get serious!” His exploration into the nature of sampled sounds – and sampled/mashed/twisted tracks – took some of the ideas explored by Schaeffer, Cage, Reich and others, and gave them a whole new context. His recordings blew my head open, and continues to do so today. Some time ago I connected with Carl via Facebook, and finally screwed up the courage to ask for an interview. He was into it, and we had a great talk, covering everything from his various touring systems, to his love of Japan, to his seeming obsession with food and restaurants. Throughout all of it, you get a glimpse of the man – and the artist – that continues to push the envelope of sonic exploration. Much of Carl's older work has been reissued, and is available both in physical form as well as streaming. If you haven't yet dug into Carl Stone's work – get on it!

Kazue Sawai, Japan, räknas som världens främsta klassiska kotospelare. Miya Masaoka, USA, är förnyaren som gett denna musik en individuell röst. Koto är en förkortning av "kami no nori koto" vilket betyder Gudarnas orakel. Under de senaste 30 åren har Kazue Sawai turnerat över hela världen i den klassiska s k Sokyoku-traditionen. Hennes like på instrumentet, tonsättare och tillika äkta make, Tadao Sawai, avled 1997. De två spelade duetter och de samarbetade med musiker och tonsättare från jazzen, världsmusiken och nutida musiken - som t ex John Cage, pianisten Aki Takahashi, avantgardisterna John Zorn i New York och Carl Stone i San Francisco.  Jag träffar Kazue Sawai strax innan en konsert i Köpenhamn. Hon är liten, har becksvart blankt hår och en skinnkjol till de höga svarta stövlarna som sträcker sig ända till knäna. En karismatisk artist med genuin STAR-quality! Jag tänker genast på den Sofia Gubajdolina jag mötte i Köpenhamn för många år sedan; i svarta skinnbyxor. Då berättar Kazue Sawai att Sofia Gubajdolina skrivit ett verk till henne för koto och symfoniorkester. Sofia och Kazue har spelat in en CD tillsammans med mästarinnan på flöjtinstrumentet sho Mayumi Miyata. Enligt traditionen spelar man koto med plektrum på tummen, pekfingret och långfingret, trots att instrumentet ursprungligen spelades med fingrarna. Kazue Sawai tycker bäst om att spela med fingrarna för då får hon fram originalljuden och vi kan höra hur det lät för över två tusen år sedan. I nyare och nutida kotomusik har musikern en större frihet och använder fingrarna alltsomoftast. På det viset skapas mer personliga tolkningar av styckena. Koto är ett mycket mer känsligt instrument än t ex violin eller cello eftersom koto tillverkas av färskt trä. Därför lever en koto i högt 40 år, sedan dör den. I Japan är luftfuktigheten mycket större än i Europa. Kazue Sawai tycker bättre om att spela i Europa eftersom koton då ger ifrån sig en starkare, mer tydlig klang tack vare den torra luften, vilken gör träet hårdare. - Det är tyvärr inte många unga japaner idag som intresserar sig för kotomusiken. Men koton är ett japanskt instrument och den japanska själen finns i instrumentet, förklarar Kazue Sawai.   Miya Masaoka är bikulturell, alltså fast förankrad i den japanska musik-traditionen genom sina föräldrar och generationerna innan. Men hon är uppvuxen och har bott med sina två barn i det urbana västerländska samhället i San Francisco och i New York. I John Cage anda preparerar Miya Masaoka ibland strängarna med föremål av metall, trä, plast  eller papper. Hon konstruerade med ett team tekniker vad hon kallar ett Koto-monster, eller en japansk Franken­stein, en mutant-Godzilla. Den ål­derdomliga heliga träkroppen av en koto blir belägrad av senso­rer kopplade till en microdator som registrerar hennes minsta rörelser och om­vand­lar dessa till ljud. Miya Masaoka är utbildad vid San Francisco State University och Mills College. Dessutom har hon studerat traditionell japansk musik hos mästaren, f d hovmusikern, Suenobu Togi, vars familj i över tusen år har spelat japansk hovmusik - Gagaku - vilket betyder elegant och förfinad musik. Detta är världens äldsta orkestertradition med rötter från Tangdynastin i 600-talets Kina. Miya Masaoka är som tonsättare upptagen av nya klanger, sammanhang, och strukturer. Hon skapar sin egen musikaliska verklighet. Och hon gör det med hjälp av bågteknik hon lärt av Ardittikvartettens cellist Rohan de Saram, och med jazzens fria improvisation som ledstjärna. Traditionell japansk hovmusik - Gagaku - uttrycker vanligtvis ett slags kollektiv mystisk tradition. Att förlora sig själv, att bli ett med instrumentet har varit det traditionella förhållningssättet hos gagaku-musikens sträng, blås- och slag-verksmusiker. Miya Masaoka är förnyaren som gett denna musik en individuell röst. Så är hennes stycke Hope in the Afternoon tillägnad hennes vän David Stern som dog i AIDS. Med ett motiv från jazzmusikern Cecil Taylor. -Vi tror på att instrumentet har en själ precis som träd, stenar och luft. Om du slår an en ton på koton befriar du instrumentets själ. Därför får du aldrig slänga ett instrument även om det är gammalt och uttjänt, säger hon. Hennes stycke Unearthed/Unbound innehåller musikaliska element av den japanska tonsättaren Tadao Sawai (framliden make till kotospelaren Kazue Sawai här i programmet). Det skrevs på uppdrag av koreografen Jill Togawa och the Purple Moon Dance Project, ett japanskt danskompani som framför verk utifrån lesbiska och svarta kvinnors perspektiv.     Låtlista: Yatsuhashi Kengyo (1614-1685) Midare Kazue Sawai, koto Pure Sound of Japan Midare Kazue Sawai plays Koto Classic KYOTO RECORDS KYCH 2005   Aki Kaze no Kyoku Mitsuzaki Kengyo Kazue Sawai, koto Pure Sound of Japan Midare Kazue Sawai plays Koto Classic KYOTO RECORDS KYCH 2005   Sofia Gubajdolina Three Strangers in Paris, part I Kazue Sawai, koto Mayumi Miyata, sho Sofia Gubajdolina, piano CD-titel: Three Strangers in Paris KYOTO RECORDS KYCH 95.9.1   Yatsuhashi Kengyo (1614-1685) Rokudan Spår: 1 Tid: 1'40 Kazue Sawai, koto   Yatsuhashi Kengyo (1614-1685) Midare Spår: 2 Tid: 8'20 Kazue Sawai, koto   De två sistnämnda spåren från samma CD: CD-titel: Pure Sound of Japan Midare (Disorder) Kazue Sawai plays Koto Classic KYOTO RECORDS KYCH 2005   While I was Crossing the Bridge Yuji Takahashi Kazue Sawai, koto CD-titel: The Wind is Calling Me Outside - Kazue Sawai Plays Yuji Takahashi Kojima Recordings Inc ALCD 37.   The Wind is Calling Me Outside Yuji Takahashi Kazue Sawai, koto CD-titel: The Wind is Calling Me Outside - Kazue Sawai Plays Yuji Takahashi Kojima Recordings Inc ALCD 37   Yatsuhashi Kengyo (1614-1685) Midare Kazue Sawai, koto Pure Sound of Japan Midare Kazue Sawai plays Koto Classic KYOTO RECORDS KYCH 2005   Come Sunday Duke Ellington Miya Masaok CD "Miya Masaoka"   The Voice Miya Masaoka CD "the seance"   Hope in the Afternoon Miya Masaoka CD "Miya Masaoka"   Prelude M Masaoka, H Kaiser, D deGruttola CD "the seance"   Lifet Miya Masaoka CD "Miya Masaoka"   Unearthed/Unbound Miya Masaoka CD "Miya Masaoka"
