When Christophe Ywaska, creator of the weekly Klankschap radio shows on VillaBota webradio suggested working on a mix together, I knew we were in for a sonic treat.  Klankschap mixes are never "just" ambient - or "just" any other genre for that matter. Their tracklistings are a display of a deep knowledge of all kinds of experimental music, both new ánd old. Due to their nature, they dó require some 'active' listening, though: they're never meant to be 'easy listening' background music. And the same is true for this mix, "Both Were Moving": this is clearly no 'ambient' mix - it's a sonic rollercoaster ride! --- originally published on Ambientblog ---

This must be one of the darkest mixes I have created until now.I recommend headphone listening for this mix, but also recommend to avoid late night listening - unless, of course, you know what to expect.

The atmosphere is immediately set with the first notes, with a threatening (Boduf Songs) howl , and may even get downright frightening in the end climax.Yet, not all is dark and gloomy.In the middle section, there are also more optimistic sounds to enjoy, some more comfortable moments.

So: just let the Machinefabriek track ('Stroomtoon Eén'- about 4 minutes from the start) guide you downward to a lower consciousness level - "Inception" style - and from there let your imagination do the rest....

There are a couple of surprising 'similarities' in this mix: the two-note chords in the Richard Skelton - The The - Anna Rose Carter sequence, and the vocal part from  Murcof track seamlessly following the preceding Library Tapes main theme.

But the most surprising track in this mix may be the Whistlebinkies track at the end.Though not exactly a track to expect in any 'ambient' mix, I clearly felt that this theme should find its place in this mix.Neither because it has a universal, somewhat melancholic,  universally appealing, "coming home" feeling.Nor because this version of the classic (Scotch) Gaelic song also has a nice musical-box like effect: a repeating theme gradually slowing down to help babies (or yourself) fall asleep.But mostly because I felt I could not 'just' end this mix immediately after the preceding climax... This track is the equivalent of a movie's end title section -  presenting the opportunity to get yourself together before you're leaving the theatre - still wondering what just happened ....

This is the question I want to ask you : what happened to you when listening to this mix?

Thanks for listening!

I am very proud that this mix has been "radio-premiered" on the same day it was published: in the 09-09-2012 edition of Bob Rusche's X-Ray radioshow (Concertzender, Holland) - it even was repeated exactly three months later: on 09-12-2012.

Mentioning Andrej Tarkovsky's 1972 movie "Solaris" as a source of inspiration has become a bit of cliche somehow. This classic movie (we're talking the original Russian 1972 version now) has inspired numerous people, in various fields of art, in its 40 years of existence.

The sparse music soundtrack, created by Edward Artemyev, and the overall meditative ambient atmosphere has also inspired a great deal of ambient music artists.It also inspired this mix-collage.Referring to Solaris from a mix like this may not really be in the 'true spirit' of what Tarkovsky meant to achieve: he originally wanted to make the movie entirely without using music at all, and asked composer Artemyev to orchestrate the ambient sounds as a musical score. The latter proposed subtly introducing orchestral music. (source).

The sparse use of musical background, together with the length and slow pace of the movie (a 'meditative psychological drama') has always had a strange effect on me: it puts me in some kind of half-sleep, a kind of state in which where it is difficult to distinguish details, to separate reality from images less 'real'.A half-conscious state of mind that perfectly matches the movie's theme.

This mix includes many different sources. Some parts of the originals Artemyev soundtrack are linked to fragments of the beautiful game soundtrack from Skyrim, by Jeremy Soule. The cinematic parts are alternated with various electronic soundscape fragments - familiar and less familiar.Together with many tiny fragments from your own memory, a new - and strictly personal- alternate reality may be created, which (like in Solaris) may be hard to distinguish from real life...

Solaris was originally released in march 1972.This tribute mix is celebrating this inspiring movie's 40th anniversary!

This mix obviously found its name from the lovely intro (and outtro) track by Nest. Inbetween, there are many moments of 'stillness', too... Moments you may slowly drift off into the drones, letting your mind wander ... to be pulled back again by some of the post-classical 'anchors' in this mix by Winged Victory For the Sullen, Human Greed, Vladimír Gódar, and Maya Beiser (member of Bang on a Can, with a stunning cello performance of the Djivan Gasparyan composition 'Memories').

Most of the tracks featured in this were released in 2011. But this mix is nót intended as a "Best of.." overview. That would result in a mix with an entirely different atmosphere (- and much longer, because one hour would not be enough to cover all the great releases I have enjoyed in 2011).

Maybe it's a good way to start a new year with a small opportunity to retreat from current society's turmoil, and to find some time to 'cocoon' to the sounds (and the sometimes fascinating depths) of 'Stillness'.Some word of warning, however: if this suggests this mix only contains warm, comfortable and pleasurable sounds, be prepared for some suprises.I never said that "Stillness" always means "Comforting"...

Best wishes for 2012 to all of you!

In the Northern Hemisphere, November month is the month of Autumn: the month that summer is definitely over, when cold and darkness slowly creeps in.

(In the Southern Hemisphere, November is a month of Spring - which means this mix will probably not fit your "November Thoughts" at all).

(Northern) November can be rough and harsh, but it's also very beautiful to watch nature prepare for winter and finding ourselves doing the same.It is also a good month to think November Thoughts.
