Disco Post-Mortem “Triglav is the music-making alias of Márton Bertók, a well-known artist and instrument-creator, active in the Budapest scene for more than 10 years. He has been a member of the conceptual folk band “Parasztok Atmoszférában”; he has been and still is collaborating with several musicians to this day; and using a Buchla Music Easel as his paramount instrument, he aims to create colour-music: a freely interpreted genre of minimalistic, flowing timbral music. EXILES is proud to welcome Triglav’s first contribution to the catalogue, ‘Red Psalm’ – an epilogue to his previous release, ‘The Overwhelming Indifference of Nature’. The album starts off with the dynamic assertion of ‘Streams Like It’s Tempered’; a tense howl, like a bird calling out to their faraway flock. Tender humming and sweet buzzes encompass the piece until the very end, where the organic, vibrant nature of analog electronics truly manifests itself. The plucking and pulsating dialogue between artist and instrument implies an ongoing, sensitive connection between the two; an evanescent and transient stream, which at the same time, plays out grave and solemn. ‘Petal & Petal’ carries on with swift, pointillistic and tiny drops of sound, that echo around the stereophonic field with vigorous resonance. Towards the end, it slowly drifts into grittier and darker territories, blending into a whirring and rumbling closure with heavy sighs and mechanized coughs. The closing ‘Disco Post-Mortem’ introduces Triglav’s custom-built device for his Buchla Music Easel: the ‘Radio Receiver Card 208–7’. Receiving FM, AM, and SW radio transmissions and scanning through them with voltage control, Triglav takes real-time instances of sound, and integrates them in his piece. This technique is inspired by the practices of Don Buchla and John Cage using radio devices for their work – following this tradition, ‘Disco Post-Mortem’ applies found and deconstructed pieces of radio signals, and arranges them into a fusion of synthesis and voice.” ___ DISCLAIMER: All tracks are uploaded in a low quality for promotional purposes only and with buy links to respect label and artists.
