This week’s program is celebrating the latest recording from the duo Nireus, entitled “Stasis”. The duo blends modular synths and viola to create textures and soundscapes that go beyond the acoustic and electronic worlds. The shared sound space seems familiar at times yet otherworldly as well. Nireus’s broad musical style is influenced by their shared history in classical music, with deep ties to electronic and experimental music. Film scores, classical performances, game soundtracks are all musical spaces in which they have immersed themselves. I had the pleasure of hearing them live twice at Knobcon in Chicago – I encourage a listen to their recordings but checking them out live to hear and where sounds emanate and how the evolve in the performance space. Enjoy this journey of the unknown yet familiar! Find out more about the recording and this week’s playlist at BeyondTheBarrier.net.
Also music from: Roberto Diedo; Lionel Bauchet; Deep Learning; Carbon Based Life Forms; AstroPilot; Erik Wøllo; Loren Nerell; Vidna Obmana & Jan Marmenout; Polypores; Pausal; Steve Roach; Niclas Lundqvist & Raphah; Colin Rayment; Syndromeda; Christian Whitman; and Celer. Enjoy this journey through the realms balance!!
