SmithProject: Zanshin: Debut EP Out Now
Schmiede congrats our outstanding and most consistent Smith! It is hard to imagine a Schmiede without you. See you in September.
like Zanshin on fb
On his debut "The Humdrum Conundrum EP" Zanshin operates like a painter in a white room, extending his arms to the fullest to paint what's left in a musical landscape of his own, using all available colours and brushes, leaving the listener with a fully grown universe of experience.
The opening track "Syzygy In Canis Major" delivers a first profound imprint – free floating vocals associated to the cutting edge of contemporary electronics. "You I I You" features a full load of edgy instrumentation, deeply transplanted synths and is smartly moving up and down the emotion-index. Concise but monumental – "Solrenichi" closes Chapter One.

SmithProduction: Firnwald: Download
[enough252]
Sodann. Angela Aux (Flo) und The Unused Word (Anna) trällern süß, melancholisch ins Mic und Firnwald räumt im Hintergrund das Zimmer auf und tanzt mit gelben Gummistiefeln auf den MPC Pads rum. Gelbe Gummistiefel deswegen, weil er gerade draußen war und ganz viele kleine Atmospheren mit einem Netz aus Spinnenseide gefangen hat.
11 Tracks die sich zwischen Pop, IDM, Ambient, Indie und Breakcore die Hand reichen und sagen: "Hej komm, lass uns Eintopf machen. Weils so kalt draußen war".
Trackspezifische Cover im ID3tag.
Download gibts hier oder da. Alles natürlich fein in CC.

Schmiede Call for participation - drama&stern
drama&stern is looking for performers
Last year on schmiede, we finished our track Wueste; on this year's Schmiede we are going to shoot a 9-minute one-shot-video. We are going to walk through Schmiede playing Wueste; on this walk, we want to run into people, intaract or let them act, and move on.
For this we are looking for *performances will last between 2 sec and 20 sec*. And please, they don't have to be serious ;)))))) *Do the monkey, yes! *
Most probably we will be shooting on Sunday Sept. 19th; till then we will prepare, find our path through Schmiede and coordinate the participation. Even though this is a video from drama&stern, we want to pay our respects and show a lot of Schmiede-flair!
here is a ...

Smith Production - OGRIS DEBRIS
The whole EP (aff 004) was built around a basic idea, a kind of "aery" sound element that served as the spine for four completely different clones. Probably a picture-perfect for every ornithologist but more likely to cause maximum euphoria on the dancefloor.
The opener "Dark Aery" is an object lesson on how to use a carpet beater (Ogris Debris´ Corporate Identity) and to create a sophisticated cracker. Definitely the most extroverted tune on this record is “Night Aery” - just imagine a former popular 80s actor passionately playing the trumpet.
The flipside continues with "Day Aery" and shows plenty of deepness, memorable hymnic vocals, the right dosage of tweaking aesthetics plus a magnetic jackin´ groove. The perfect soundtrack for sunrise comes at the end: "Light Aery" - sky is the limit ...

Smith Production - CPU - VOTE!
Kafka's The Trial is the springboard for a CPU, a dance and theatre stereoscopic real-time piece where the images of the performers are gathered digitally, manipulated and remixed live to an audience, each one wearing 3D cinema glasses, plunges into a thrilling and disturbing illusory world. (Preisträger: Salzburger Landespreis 2007: Medienkunst)
BIO 1n0ut is an artist collective that works both collaboratively and individually on a variety of visual and interactive art/dance/theatre projects, with a focus on generating synesthetic experiences. The artists mix analogue and digital processes in their work to achieve what they have in mind.

Smith Production - Flashnap
Ingo Thomas, aka Flashnap, smith and friend, celebrates his latest release on the Detroit label Beyond:
Newcomer Ingo Thomas provides the next installment on Beyond with three very unique, raw and individual tracks on vinyl.
The
off kilter, deep and detroit inspired ‚Suludada‘ charms and chimes its
way down a dusty, richly textured path as the meandering synth themes
intertwine and grow throughout 8 and half minutes. Painting a
mysterious picture of late night abandon, echoes of dark moody club
atmospheres and super deep vibes a plenty, its a really stand out
track... and the quality doesn‘t let off here!
‚Sweep‘ is
another suitably textural offering that lays down tense atmospheric
chords and uplifting synth themes from the very start. Reminding us of
some of the very best deep ...

Smith Action - Salzburg - DEPART @ ARGE - 19.-20.11.
Unheim ist ein Parcours, eine Probe, aber auch eine performative Audioinstallation, die es zu bewältigen gilt.
Können Sie erkennen, wie Unheim auf Sie reagiert? Und was Unheim
Ihnen alles vorenthält? Wer kontrolliert hier wen? Wer steckt mit wem
unter einer Decke und wird sie Ihnen auf den Kopf fallen? Behalten Sie
im Dickicht der Manipulation den Durchblick?
Wenn es Ihnen danach nicht wie Schuppen von den Augen fällt, wer
hier eigentlich der Fisch im Wasser ist, dann haben Sie den kürzeren
Strohhalm gezogen! An den hätten Sie sich im Anblick der Gefahr
eigentlich verzweifelt klammern sollen! Schlürfen Sie unverschämt am
Cocktail der Gefühlskontrolle!
Hier werden Sie auf Herz, Kutteln und Beuschel geprüft, nichts für schwache Nerven!
Vor Beginn des Besuches werden Sie über mögliche Gefahren und Risiken informiert.
Begrenzte TeilnehmerInnenzahl ...
