We Are Busy Bodies:

"Peace Flag Ensemble are a free jazz collective from Saskatchewan. Their sophomore LP, Astral Plains, arrives July 18 via We Are Busy Bodies.

The group’s 2021 debut Noteland was described as “akin to getting stuck in a sensory deprivation tank with Keith Jarrett.” By contrast Astral Plains opens up, offering spacious and blue-sky arrangements and production. Perhaps it’s closer to laying in a prairie field looking for animals in the clouds with Mark Hollis.

Peace Flag Ensemble brings together a curious range of artistic backgrounds from studied players to left-field experimentalists. Their recordings are a pastiche of improvisation, composition, and collage. Centered around Jon Neher’s piano improvisations and Travis Packer’s electric bass, Astral Plains sees the collective expanded in both size and sound with the addition of percussionist Michael Thievin and contributions from guests including Patrick Shiroishi and Nick Walters. It was produced and mixed by ambient artist Michael Scott Dawson, who also provides subtle electronics, guitars, and field recordings. Paul Gutheil and Dalton Lam, on saxophone and trumpet respectively, provide linear and melodic passages tempered by restraint. They also allow Dawson to recontextualize their contributions through effects and tape manipulation. The result is a nuanced and joyous record that finds clarity through experimentation."

I had stumbled on a box of Punjabi records for sale at Bollywood Music Center on Gerrard St. East in Little India -- a store where I had been buying hindi film records for years. I wasn't too familiar with Punjabi music beyond UK Bhangra, took a chance and loved the records; over some time I bought every Punjabi record in the store. I studied the records and bought a tumbi from Kala Kendar, a shop next to the music store that sold instruments. I learned the tumbi from Youtube videos and copying the sounds on the records.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eI had started my all-analog record label Local Dish, cutting vinyl records from tape recordings in late 2019 and quickly had to change pace when the pandemic began. I shifted back to producing music mostly on my own and working with recordings I had made over the years.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor years I had been interested in electronic tabla machines and shruti boxes -- somewhere along the way I became aware of vintage analog Radel machines and they became the one category of gear I was desperate to find. In Christmas of 2020 I received from my partner a gift of a vintage Taalmala that was by coincidence\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e found locally on Kijiji. Over the next week I produced one track a day, experimenting with composing music in the Punjabi folk-styles I had listened to and studied in the context of a minimal electronic style based on the sounds of the Taalmala. I compiled these into a 4-track EP inspired by the \"Super-7\" format that was commonly released in India in the 70s and 80s; usually 4-6 tracks running at 33 rpm of regional folk, religious and popular music. I cut 5 copies and had no intent to release the record.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI had commonly at this time given demo discs of new tracks to Symon Warwick, the DJ behind the Turning Point party in Toronto to listen to and perhaps play out. I threw one of the Super-7 records in with some others I had produced and when he heard it, he loved it and wanted to put it out. To release the EP he created a label, Turning Point records and it was surprise \"hit\". We cut over 100 copies and it led to more releases on his label as well as more attention to Local Dish releases.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOver time I acquired both a vintage Radel Talometer and electronic Tanpura locally via classifieds and experimented with integrating their sounds into the recordings as well. The basic idea was to take these machines designed for practice, which had their own incredible sound due to technological limitations and apply them to Indian music. Everything I had heard of these machines in recordings and videos only used them in an abstract electronic context. The main intent was and still is to use these sounds in collaboration with South Asian musicians and vocalists in the Toronto area, but this album came from both casual exploration and experimentation with the tools, as well as an inability to collaborate in-person due to pandemic restrictions at the time.\u003c\/span\u003e \"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Electric Taal

Taal Bandは、コヴィッドの大流行、ひとりで仕事をする必要性、そしていくつかの偶然から生まれたプロジェクトだった。リトル・インディアのジェラード・ストリート・イーストにあるボリウッド・ミュージック・センターで、パンジャブ語のレコードが箱売りされているのを偶然見つけた。UKバングラ以外のパンジャブ音楽にはあまり馴染みがなかったが、思い切ってレコードを買ってみたらとても気に入った。レコードを研究し、楽器店の隣にあったカラ・ケンダールという楽器を売っている店でトゥンビを買った。トゥンビはYoutubeの動画とレコードの音をコピーして覚えた。\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e私は2019年後半にテープ録音からレコードをカッティングする、オールアナログのレコードレーベル「Local Dish」を始めていたが、パンデミックが始まるとすぐにペースを変えなければならなかった。私は、ほとんど自分ひとりで音楽を制作し、長年かけて作った録音を扱うことにシフトし直した。\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e何年もの間、私は電子タブラマシーンやシュルティ・ボックスに興味を持っていたが、どこかでヴィンテージのアナログレーデルマシーンを知るようになり、それらは私が必死に探していた機材のひとつのカテゴリーとなった。2020年のクリスマス、私はパートナーから、偶然にも地元のKijijiで見つけたヴィンテージのTaalmalaをプレゼントされた。それから1週間、私は1日1曲ずつ制作し、タールマラのサウンドをベースにしたミニマルなエレクトロニック・スタイルの中で、これまで聴いて勉強してきたパンジャビ民族のスタイルで作曲を試みた。私はこれらを、70年代から80年代にかけてインドで一般的にリリースされていた「Super-7」フォーマットにインスパイアされた4トラックのEPにまとめた。このレコードをリリースするつもりはなかった。\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e私はこの頃、トロントのターニング・ポイント・パーティーのDJ、サイモン・ワーウィックに新曲のデモディスクをよく渡していた。私がプロデュースした他の曲と一緒にSuper-7のレコードの1枚を投げたら、彼はそれを聴いて気に入り、出したいと言ってくれた。そのEPをリリースするために、彼はターニング・ポイント・レコードというレーベルを作り、それが驚くほど「ヒット」した。私たちは100枚以上をカットし、彼のレーベルからのリリースが増え、ローカル・ディッシュのリリースにも注目が集まるようになった。\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eやがて私は、ヴィンテージのレーデル・タロメーターと電子タンプラの両方を、クラシファイドを通じて現地で入手し、それらの音をレコーディングにも取り入れる実験をした。基本的なアイデアは、練習用に設計され、技術的な制約のために独自の素晴らしいサウンドを持つこれらの機械を、インド音楽に応用することだった。私が録音やビデオで聴いたこれらのマシンは、抽象的なエレクトロニクスの文脈でしか使われていなかった。主な意図は、トロント近郊の南アジアのミュージシャンやヴォーカリストとのコラボレーションでこれらのサウンドを使用することであり、現在もそうである。しかし、このアルバムは、ツールの気軽な探求と実験の両方から生まれたものであり、また、当時のパンデミック規制のために直接コラボレーションすることができなかったものでもある。

I had stumbled on a box of Punjabi records for sale at Bollywood Music Center on Gerrard St. East in Little India -- a store where I had been buying hindi film records for years. I wasn't too familiar with Punjabi music beyond UK Bhangra, took a chance and loved the records; over some time I bought every Punjabi record in the store. I studied the records and bought a tumbi from Kala Kendar, a shop next to the music store that sold instruments. I learned the tumbi from Youtube videos and copying the sounds on the records.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eI had started my all-analog record label Local Dish, cutting vinyl records from tape recordings in late 2019 and quickly had to change pace when the pandemic began. I shifted back to producing music mostly on my own and working with recordings I had made over the years.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor years I had been interested in electronic tabla machines and shruti boxes -- somewhere along the way I became aware of vintage analog Radel machines and they became the one category of gear I was desperate to find. In Christmas of 2020 I received from my partner a gift of a vintage Taalmala that was by coincidence\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e found locally on Kijiji. Over the next week I produced one track a day, experimenting with composing music in the Punjabi folk-styles I had listened to and studied in the context of a minimal electronic style based on the sounds of the Taalmala. I compiled these into a 4-track EP inspired by the \"Super-7\" format that was commonly released in India in the 70s and 80s; usually 4-6 tracks running at 33 rpm of regional folk, religious and popular music. I cut 5 copies and had no intent to release the record.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI had commonly at this time given demo discs of new tracks to Symon Warwick, the DJ behind the Turning Point party in Toronto to listen to and perhaps play out. I threw one of the Super-7 records in with some others I had produced and when he heard it, he loved it and wanted to put it out. To release the EP he created a label, Turning Point records and it was surprise \"hit\". We cut over 100 copies and it led to more releases on his label as well as more attention to Local Dish releases.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOver time I acquired both a vintage Radel Talometer and electronic Tanpura locally via classifieds and experimented with integrating their sounds into the recordings as well. The basic idea was to take these machines designed for practice, which had their own incredible sound due to technological limitations and apply them to Indian music. Everything I had heard of these machines in recordings and videos only used them in an abstract electronic context. The main intent was and still is to use these sounds in collaboration with South Asian musicians and vocalists in the Toronto area, but this album came from both casual exploration and experimentation with the tools, as well as an inability to collaborate in-person due to pandemic restrictions at the time.\u003c\/span\u003e \"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Electric Taal Band\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : We Are Busy Bodies\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCAT No : \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWABB-186\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}
