Aphonia Recordings is proud to announce the release of KRGA’s brand new mini album, ‘Magic Wand’.
KRGA’s first Aphonia Release, Magic Wand, is a two track drone cycle, focusing on the sound of electrical interference, and the promotion of its sound to be the foremost element of the music. The title track finds Kristian manipulating an electric guitar with a vibrator, both using it to excite the strings as well as to interfere with the pickups’ signal. The track slowly grows thicker and thicker, as the sound of the guitar is processed and layered in Max/MSP. The second track, “AC”, focuses on the ubiquitous 60 cycle hum of electrical instruments. An electric guitar is set on the floor, gain cranked up, to allow the hum to ring out. The buzz quickly gains weight as it layers on top of itself, deep rumblings come out from below, until finally dissolving into a simple chord, which becomes fractured and atonal as the song fades out. Both tracks on this mini-album were recorded direct as they were performed. No overdubs occur on these recordings.

A little more about Darwinsbitch:
“Darwinsbitch is fluid forms of drones, doomy laments, and folk melodies fleshed out from a backbone of sine oscillators and violin. Sound sources from the environment blend with instruments such as piano, ocean-harp, guitar, bass, and specially designed computer programs to create a unique sonic hybrid between the acoustic and the digital.”
“Darwinsbitch is the solo project of Marielle Jakobsons, sound artist and violinist from Oakland, California. Her work stems from a fascination between human experiences which are at once “natural” and technologically-altered. Other projects include: myrmyr (electroacoustic duo with Agnes Szelag), Triometrik (interactive multimedia ensemble), as well as many other violin/improv performances.”
We think this sums it up better than we could on our own. Enjoy!
As some of you already know we had our launch show over a month ago. We are proud to announce the soon to be released “Launch 001” is on it’s way. This post also serves to inform everyone exactly how the live performances will be released. We had 9 acts perform and we will be releasing a “box set” style release with all artists’ performances represented. We will also be releasing each artists set separately as a live album… Soon to come in addition are free videos of the show that we will be uploading onto Myspace and maybe other places.
Also… coming soon are releases from Amy Denio, Derek Johnson and others. Marriage + Cancer is also working on a new project that will be released on vinyl! It will be Aphonia Recordings first vinyl release. We will keep you posted on that.
We are also in the process of signing some new acts. Stay tuned!
