500 PUSH-UP


CD digipack SR499
LP SRV499
black vinyl 
limited edition color vinyl

From Mille Plateaux to Leaf, Staubgold and Raster-Noton, ~scape,
among others, or on his own label Ripatti, the Finnish artist
Sasu Ripatti aka Vladislav Delay has been exploring various
iterations of the 'dub culture vs. Electronica', since 1997. His sonic
crafts and unique signature sound has been sought after by an
eclectic range of bands and artists, ranging from Massive Attack,
Hauschka, Black Dice, Autopoieses, Animal Collective orAGF.
Somewhere between the old-school electronica culture, the
soundscaping, the experimental paths of Lee Perry and
Adrian Sherwood, ghostly clubbing anthems, minimalism,
pop, jazz, without being influenced, Vladislav Delay is building
a drifting and coherent sound enigma.
Vladislav Delay met Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare
(the most prolific Jamaican rhythm section and production duo)
thanks to a series of jam sessions. Trumpet player Nils-Petter
Molvaer had been asked by the Jamaicans to join them and
he invited Delay alongside guitar player Eivind Aarset to tag
along, which eventually turned into the Nordub project.
The result of these jam sessions turned into an album, mixed
and mostly produced by Vladislav Delay, released on the label
Okeh. It was also followed by an extensive series of live dates.
This one-shot reunion was the beginning of another story:
a trio composed by Delay, Dunbar and Shakespeare.
In January 2019, Vladislav Delay went to Kingston and spent
some days at The Anchor studios, to record drums and bass
with S&R, some voice takes and a series of atmospheric field
recordings. Back to Finland, Delay started to experiment with
this precious material, mixing and overdubbing, in the comfort
and quiet of his studio, based on the island of Hailuoto, Baltic
Sea, Northern Finland, giving another feeling to the Jamaican trip.

This became a tribute to the 'dub spirit', but in a very personal way,
far beyond any influence or "the obvious". 500-PUSH-UP is two
worlds collapsing, merging, also showing some intriguing approach
of the Jamaican groove, used as a filigree, like the echo or the ghost
of reggae, converging and conversing with a post-industrial and
experimental approach. To file beside experiments - for instance -
such as Lee Perry's Scientist Rids The World Of The Evil Curse
Of The Vampires or the On U-Sound productions.

JORIS DE LAET
Experimental & Parametric Music 1976-2017


2CD / SR469 / DIGIPACK + 20 PAGE BK
2LP / SRV469 / BLACK VINYL + INSERT

Through 'Experimental & Parametric Music 1976-2017',
more than 40 years of the composer's work are unveiled.
We discover here for the first time the great coherence
of this work: from 'Signalisations' (1976) to 'Mnemosyne
pour une acousmaman' (2017).
The twelve compositions are annotated and explained in detail
by the composer, as well as a kind of wild autobiography.

Released in our Early Electronic series
 
Joris De Laet
He was born in 1947, Belgian by birth, self-taught by definition,
parametric music and art video composer by choice. Founder of the
S.E.M. (Studio voor Experimentele Muziek) in Antwerp, 1973.
Internships at the IPEM (Instituut voor Psychoakoestiek en
Elektronische Muziek) in Ghent, 1972-1975, under Karel Goeyvaerts,
Lucien Goethals, and Dr. Herman Sabbe.

De Laet is the founder of the SEMensemble, a group of musicians-composers specialized in performing experimental music and live electronics.
From 1975 until 1990, he gave concerts with this ensemble throughout
Europe (Germany, France, The Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Croatia,
etc.) and in Canada (Montreal, Kingston, Toronto).
 
Parametric Music
Inspired by the deep control on electronic sonics, he has been defining
his work since 1979 as 'Parametric Music,' music where composition
is based on transformation flows of one or several parameters, selected
by the composer, that form, through their converging (or diverging)
processes the main characteristics of the regulated sonics of
the composition.
