Beyond Boundaries, seventeen

Beyond Boundaries is a 10-track playlist aiming to feature 10 “out-of-the-box”, outstanding gems! Not exactly unclassified, but certainly unique and uncommon.

“Sound Explorer”: Christos Doukakis

Evan Mix

(experimental, spoken word)

Quick pitch: A very unique and uncommon blend of experimental spoken word. Listen!

Volgane

(avant-garde, experimental pop, jazz, electronic)

Quick pitch: Toulouse duo will blast your heads with this avant-gard-ish/jazz/experimental pop dynamite.

Scott Stevenson

(drone, experimental, noise, soundtrack)

Quick pitch: Baroque and bleak soundtrack that is both hypnotic and abrasive, transporting the imagination deeper and deeper into a maze of cacophonous textures that evoke fear and dread in the heart.

Mathias Rehfeldt

(neoclassical, ambient)

Quick pitch: Tundra is dedicated to the vast and lonely landscape. It was recorded in one night in a German catedral and features church organ, cello, flute and electronics. Intense!

Rubin Kodheli

(neoclassical, experimental, cello)

Quick pitch: Genre-bending, 3 part cello suite, spans modern classical, ambient and perhaps even a bit of post-rock..

Edgar Cards

(instrumental hip-hop, bedroom pop, lo-fi)

Quick pitch: What’s going on in here? Bedroom pop in the same ‘mixer’ with instrumental hip-hop? Check dis!

Электрические сады репталов

(synthwave, experimental, progressive electronica)

Quick pitch: “Bryophytes” is a second track from electronic instrumental concept album “Bryophytes, lichens and cyanobacteria of the Svalbard island” based on a scientific work with similar title. Difficult to remember that name!

Metanoia

(experimental, minimal electronic)

Quick pitch: Developed using almost only heavily manipulated vocals and mouth noises. A pure mystagogic experience.

Indira Valey

(lo-fi pop, ambient)

Quick pitch: Alternate dimensions, past lives, and dream worlds. “Trip advisor”: Portland, Oregon’s queer Jewish-Latinx soundscape and multimedia artist.

SHTUBY

(idm, glitch, ethno beat)

Quick pitch: Could be the ideal definition for Beyond Boudaries… No borders, no genres…From glitch to ethno beat and from melodi to pure abstract. Addiction!
