Fiagd In fact, here we have the remarkable 'IDM' creature fitted with various undertones, composed in a hybrid and progressive "brainy" way, made of experimental subatoms and covered with some recognizable (and not so well recognizable) zests.

But... above all, it's awesome contemporary music, whatever you want to call it.
Just beautiful.

about

ENG

Pauk returns to Discontinu Records with Melancholic Anger.

Pauk has always tried to reflect personal experiences in his music, researching new ways of creation, experimenting with analog and digital hardware and software, and always communicating through his already known Monome so that his works come alive on stage.

A statement of intents in his sound, where strength and emotion go hand in hand like life itself, a language of emotional melodies and super-edited twisted rhythms crushed with his digital blades.

His new work "Melancholic Anger" offers 8 cuts, with the opening "Bird Bones" where the beauty of a simple piano is crushed by beats that blend perfectly. "Dark Grid", as its name suggests, is an obscure grid of layers upon layers of melodic sequences that overlap to its hardness. He gives way to "Tusk" swatting your head to the drum beats with the transformation of operatic voices, creating an epic theme. "Helianthus" recalls the sound of the oldschool, classic breaks that go haywire with acid bass lines.

It's time for "Tenshi", angel in Japanese, it is undoubtedly the most emotional cut because of the inspiration by the memory of his grandmother. It creates an atmosphere hidden in complex sonorities and small details that you are caught in a process that is rising as the hypnotic rhythm progresses, and ends in a touching piano ode. "Kaizen" explores the broken beats, in the micro-editing, and winks to 8 bits.

"A Significant Spot" is the perfect process from acoustic to digital sound, a kind of futuristic classic jazz mixed with high intensity IDM. The album closes with "Kintsugi" a passage of music box where the Melancholic Anger trip ends, an album with feeling and longing.


ESP

Pauk regresa a Discontinu Records con Melancholic Anger.

Pauk siempre ha tratado de reflejar vivencias personales en su música, investigando nuevas formas de creación, experimentando con hardware y software, analógico y digital, siempre comunicándose a través de su ya conocido Monome, para que sus obras cobren vida en sus directos.

Una declaración de intenciones en su sonido, donde la contundencia y la emotividad van de la mano como la vida misma, un lenguaje propio de melodías emotivas y ritmos retorcidos y súper-editados, triturados con sus cuchillas digitales.

El nuevo trabajo "Melancholic Anger" ofrece 8 cortes, con el que abre “Bird Bones”, donde la belleza de un simple piano es aplastada por beats que combinan a la perfección. “Dark Grid”, como su nombre indica, es una oscura cuadrícula de capas y capas de secuencias melódicas que se sobreponen a su dureza, dando paso a “Tusk” que golpea con fuerza tu cabeza a golpe de bombos, con la transformación de voces operísticas, creando así un tema épico. “Helianthus” recuerda el sonido de la oldschool, clásicos breaks se descontrolan con la pista ácida.

Llega el momento de “Tenshi “, ángel en japonés, es sin duda el corte más emotivo debido a su inspiración, su abuela. En el que crea una atmósfera que se esconde en complejas sonoridades y pequeños detalles que te atrapan en un proceso que se va elevando a medida que avanza el ritmo hipnótico y acaba en un oda de piano emotivo. “Kaizen” indaga en los ritmos rotos, en la microedición, y hace un guiño al 8 bits.

”A Significant Spot” es el proceso perfecto del acústico al digital, un especie de jazz futurista mezclado con IDM clásica de alta intensidad . Cierra el álbum “Kintsugi” un pasaje de caja musical donde termina el viaje de Melancholic Anger, un álbum con sentimiento y nostalgia.
