Jim Haynes // Inconsequential CD

当店おなじみアメリカ・テキサスの実験／ドローンレーベルHelen Scarsdale Agency主宰Jim Haynesが、2024年7月にドイツのノイズレーベルWhite Centipede NoiseからリリースしたCDです。

ハーシュノイズ〜ノイズ・ドローン7曲を収録。4面デジパック、シュリンク仕様です。

以下、作家本人による解説です。

"私は、このアルバムのリリースに関して、自分自身の頑固さと傲慢さに関係して、多くの間違った決断を下してきた。しかし、私は明らかに、この分野で問題となりうる特定の寓意、隠喩、象徴を避けたかった。だから私は、この形式を取り入れ、自分の好みに合わせて変異させ、崩壊に関する特定のアイデアの中でそれらの戦略を適応させ、適切な方向に発展させた。このすべては、カリフォルニア州オークランドでアネンツェファリアのオープニングを飾る機会を得た2018年に始まった。そしてこのアルバムは、パンツァー・ビート、機械加工されたノイズ、地獄のような電気が織り成すヒドラ頭の怪物へと発展していった。多くの意味で、このアルバムは2010年代後半に取り組んでいたアイデアの集大成であり、またかなり異なって感じられる2020年以降の作品へとつながっている。"

Text by Oskar Brummel via the label:

"this is the final pulse of a dying giant’s heart beat. "inconsequential" is haynes consciously channeling the god of cold industrial, anenzephalia, and coming out on the other side with a totally sovereign statement on authoritarian dread. an album that transmits the adrenaline soaked anxiety of the merciless advancement of the process. nagging, nauseating oscillations, nervously braying spinal screeching, skull resonating ambience. utilizing a more partitioned layering of sonic elements than his recent masterpieces like turbulence or insomnia, and working within more industrial song structures, haynes once again silently slaughters us with a masterpiece that feels simultaneously massive, and as if it's occurring inside your brain stem" 

Artist statement by Jim Haynes / 2024 :

"i almost walked away from the album, having made a lot of bad decisions in regards to its release, all having to do with my own stubbornness and my own hubris. but here it is, all thanks to white centipede noise and oskar for making this happen. this is an album of heavy electronics, adjacent to form coined through tesco organisation to describe the likes of anenzephalia, deutsche nepal, advokat ihrer hoheit, etc. but i clearly wanted to avoid certain allegories, metaphors, and symbols that can be problematic with the field. so i took the form, mutated it to my own liking, adapted those strategies within certain ideas on decay, and allowed it to develop a proper course. all of this started back in 2018, when i had the opportunity to open for anenzephalia in oakland, california. the reaction to the show was positive, but i felt i could push those ideas further, heighten the dynamics, and intensify the noise; and the album developed into a hydra-headed monstrosity of panzer beats, machined noise, and infernal electricity. in many ways, it marks a culmination of the ideas i was working on during the late 2010s, and it also leads into the post-2020 work which feels considerably different. yeah, i did finish the first draft of inconsequential right before the pandemic broke in 2020, then it got remixed a couple of times before oskar got to hear it. all of those historical facts are probably irrelevant to anybody except me, and here i am making note of something irrelevant. here is my variant on an industrial noise / heavy electronic record released in 2024. make of that what you will."
