DENOVALI SWINGFEST LONDON + BERLIN 2014

We really regret having to inform you that the Swingfest performances of Hidden Orchestra on 18 April 2014 in London and 26 April 2014 in Berlin have to be cancelled. A few days ago our friends had a serious accident with their tour bus in Serbia. Our thoughts and best wishes are with the band and the crew. With Saffronkeira and the trumpet legend Mario Massa from Italy, we are pleased to announce another great Denovali act joining the line-up of Swingfest London at Village Underground on day one of the festival. Fans of the Murcof & Eric Truffaz / DJ Krush & Toshinori Kondo collaborations should be all ears. With Sankt Otten, we are pleased to announce another established Denovali act joining the line-up of Swingfest Berlin at Radialsystem V on day two of the festival - we are looking forward to the duo's atmospheric performance with influences from ambient to trip hop to the 70s Berlin School sound.

OMEGA MASSIF – GEISTERSTADT LP
OMEGA MASSIF – KALT LP
OMEGA MASSIF – GEISTERSTADT+KALT 2xCD

[ www.denovali.com/geisterstadtrepress2.jpg ]

[ www.denovali.com/kalt.jpg ]

The Omega Massif debut record KALT for the first time available on black and colored wax. This is not the usual silent start/big climax thing well-known from postrock records - this is one of the best instrumental/metal/doom bands of the past years and already a classic of the genre. Remastered by James Plotkin (Khanate, Phantomsmasher etc.)

Repress of the Omega Massif masterpiece. The sounds of this album may remind you of the good old records of PELICAN and ISIS, but OMEGA MASSIF go much further. The spiralling melodies overlaying the rolling ri s and pummeling basses make the songs of GEISTERSTADT sound celestial and infernal at the same time. The diversity and ingenuity of OMEGA MASSIF is maybe best seen in the 10 minute monster ‘Nebelwand' - starting with fragile drums and melodies, the tension slowly increases by including an accordion, followed by short outbursts of massive sound walls. However, OMEGA MASSIF are not in a hurry, and so it takes 6 minutes until the powerful sound storms interweaved with the elevated melodies typical for the band finally take the lead and dominate the song until the end. This is not the usual silent start/big climax thing well-known from postrock records - this is one of the best instrumental/metal/doom records in the past years and already a classic of the genre. The 2xCd version comes with the 4 tracks from their debut record KALT as bonus.

PETRELS - THE SILVER CHIMNEY CLUB / WAT TYLER CD | 12'' | DIGITAL

[ www.denovali.com/tsccwt.jpg ]

The Silver Chimney Club / Wat Tyler comprises two long form tracks written between between "Onkalo" and the latest Petrels album "Mima". Originally released for a short while in digital format they're now presented here in re-mastered form with new artwork for this release. Asked about the background of the two tracks, Petrels' Oliver Barrett comments: "The Silver Chimney Club was written to mark the death of my grandfather, Ernest Barrett, who passed away at the end of last year. A civil engineer during his working life, The Silver Chimney Club was the name of the name of a group formed of fellow work colleagues who would meet up on a semi-regular basis - I suspect more for social than professional reasons. As a tribute I'm not sure what he would have made of it but I wanted to create something that combined the industry he was a part of with his love of music that was passed on down to me. My grandfather was a socialist and Labour supporter (by which I mean the original post-war, pre-Blair party) - another thing I inherited from him, and which ties with the second piece on this release. Wat Tyler is named after the leader of the Peasants' Revolt in England in 1381. Ostensibly a revolt against the poll tax, the movement was built on an undercurrent of a desire for social change and a demand for an end to the stiflingly limiting social structures of the time. Initially successful, the rebellion was abruptly cut short when Wat Tyler was murdered by the Mayor of London after Tyler supposedly insulted the young kind of England, Richard II during a parley. Over six centuries on, a lot less has changed in the world than those involved in the Peasants' Revolt might have hoped." Since releasing his debut "Haeligewielle" in 2011, Petrels has toured across Europe and shared a stage with the likes of Tim Hecker, FIRE!, Nate Young (Wolf Eyes), Trouble Books, Fennesz, Nadja, and Hans-Joachim Roedelius (Cluster). Having also collaborated with and provided remixes for artists as varied as Duane Pitre, Brassica, Talvihorros and Max Cooper, Petrels' output is proving to be thrillingly eclectic and unpredictable. For fans of Tim Hecker, Fennesz, Hans-joachim Roedelius.

MOON ZERO - TOMBS 12'' | DIGITAL
MOON ZERO - LOSS 12'' | DIGITAL
MOON ZERO - TOMBS + LOSS 2XCD

[ www.denovali.com/tombs.jpg ]

[ www.denovali.com/loss.jpg ]

MOON ZERO is the enigmatic and ethereal project of London-based Tim Garratt. Composed and recorded entirely in churches, Moon Zero's compositions explore the harmonic chaos of competing frequencies. Denovali Records is pleased to announce the release of Moon Zero's second EP 'LOSS' on vinyl and 2xCD, where the second CD will contain the first EP 'TOMBS' and remixes thereof, previously available only as a limited cassette release. This edition of 'Tombs' will also appear as a separate vinyl release.

'TOMBS' is, especially for a debut, a bold and confident musical statement, which reimagines the possibilities of processed organ and laptop sounds in a live context. The opener 'Dalyan' builds from slowly wavering layers of sound into a crumbling, decaying wall of fuzzed-out, peaking noise, which in turn builds again into ever-moving blocks of chopped loops and feedback, absorbing the listener completely into Moon Zero's musical space. A remarkable listen.

'LOSS' is the result of a year spent working out how to play Moon Zero live and then going on to play concerts. Using a wide range of instrumentation such ad drawbar organ, bass synth, vocals, fx processors and guitar pedals, Loss was written & recorded over 2 days at St George in The East Church in London, October 2013.

Whereas 'Tombs' was more concerned with exploring melody in an ambient space, 'Loss' is looking at pulse and movement in sound. Indeed, Garratt states: "I wanted to create a soundscape that had a propulsion to it, a sense of rhythm but without drums. I like sounds which are dynamic in terms of both volume and frequency range, they need to have a life to them and breathe." Composing and recording in churches, the musical works of Moon Zero embody their character; the authentic space and depth to the sound. Some frequencies cause parts of the church to vibrate wildly. One can hear children playing outside and wind blowing through the gaps of the windows. It has life. Garratt adds: "There is a sad solitude of being alone in a large room, and as an atheist I find no comfort in the doctrine that surrounds me." Moon Zero's compositions leave with that isolation on them, the setting is directly influencing the music. Indeed, Loss is inspired by dimming nostalgia and inevitability. Exploring ideas about the end and decay of life cycles, these four tracks constitute a staggering masterpiece.
