Negativland - NPR Tiny Desk (Home) Concert

It may at first seem that Negativland's sound collage is an unlikely candidate for a Tiny Desk concert, but honestly, how many bands can you think of making music since the late 1970s while sitting pretty much at their desks? Formed in the Bay Area, Negativland are proud subverters of culture, causing trouble while having fun. The found sounds of Negativland come from original members David Wills, Mark Hosler, and Jon Leidecker (from left to right on the bottom of the screen), with visuals by Kevin Slagle and Sue Slagle (top of the screen). Negativland are provocateurs, taking aim at the media and how technology alters our perception of the world. You can hear that on their 2020 album, The World Will Decide. This Tiny Desk (home) concert looks frightfully similar to the way many of us work these days — on video conference calls, reacting in real-time to our colleagues, dissecting our interactions ... but also occasionally having fun.

Reality Game

Kevin Richard Martin - Bedroom Loops

Kevin Richard Martin's 'Bedroom Loops'. Music composed horizontally, and best listened to horizontally. KRM sketched the music in seven consecutive nights on his bed, and then subsequently wrote/mixed them, in late evening sessions in the lab.

Seven nocturnal cycles of smokey, hazy, hypnotic repetitions.All sounds composed in the granular realm, incorporating only granular hardware synthesis/sampling/plugins and shadowy, dubbed out fx, and then fittingly chopped/screwed to the most single mindedly, drowsy pace in the analogue world over two months.

Seven ambient variations on the same misty, dreamlike theme... A glittering,droning, blurred soundset of half heard delirium. An ode to heavy lids, an album to f-ck to, or get f-cked up to, or simply zone out with...

Immersion time. The emphasis is on slower than slow, the glacial shifts are subliminal, the impact is soporific. Anyone hooked on Martin's recent 'White Light/Red Light' releases, or the alien soundscapes found in King Midas Sound's 'Solitude' will enjoy this warm medication

I'm thrilled to announce my forthcoming album, 'Heart-Shaped Scars'. It will be released on @sa_recordings in July this year. Produced by myself and @fionatron, with beautiful strings by @Hanpeel.
