Tomoroh Hidari

Todtnauberg - a 'Pataphysical Approach

Ambient Acid Breaks from the Delusory 'Pataphysical Institute of Whateverism....
Dedicated to Martin Heidegger and his mustache!

Sein und Zeit (Being and Time) may be one of the most important works of western philosophy in the 20th century, and earned its author, controversial philosopher Martin Heidegger, fame amongst phenomenologists - the book itself was heavily influenced and even dedicated to Edmund Husserl -, existentialists (see: Sean Paul Sartre "Being and Nothing) and even structuralists like Jacques Derrida. Tomoroh Hidari's "Todtnauberg", named after the small village in Germany where Sein und Zeit was written in 1927, does not attempt to set Martin Heidegger's complex philosophical ponderings to music, but rather takes a 'pataphysical approach: Instead of trying to understand Time and Being as transcendental universalia, they are musically created and treated as special cases, one-off instances of a kind. Musically and personally reflecting life as the ever changing excretive winds of King Ubu, where patterns and structures are arbitrary means to an end, seemingly repetitive circles within a theatre of the absurdish scheme serving to create odds to an end.

SOMMEIL: A CONCERT FOR SLEEP

I recently submitted some material from my first "his Namelessness Is Legion" album "Resonant Mindlessness", out on mahorka (see links at the bottom) to Tanner Menard's
SOMEIL: A CONCERT FOR SLEEP, which will take place in New Orleans on 11th of April.
Here is some info from Tanner's Blog, (which you can read here):

SOMMEIL: A CONCERT FOR SLEEP, beginning at 10:00 pm

on Saturday April 11th and ending at 7:00 am on Sunday April

12th: $15 including breakfast. All participants are asked to

provide their own sleeping bag and pillow.

You can also spend meditation time in the Sleep Space on April

11th from noon till 9:00 pm: $5 per hour and $3 per half hour.

From 6:00-9:00 pm the gallery will particpate in the St Claude

Arts District Gallery Opening Saturday. All proceeds benefit

Antenna Gallery.

Tanner Menard, Antenna Gallery and Experimedia Records

presents Sommeil: A Concert for Sleep, an international collaborative

experiment. Sommeil will be an all-night event beginning

at 10:00 pm on Saturday April 11th and ending on Sunday April

12th at 7:00 am. Participants are asked to slowly fall asleep while

live ambient and environmental music is performed through the

night by Tanner Menard.

Sommeil: A Concert for Sleep will be Menard’s reinterpretation of

the sleep concert experiment, first created by Robert Rich in 1982

and will be presented at the Antenna Gallery 3161 Burgundy

St New Orleans, LA 70117 in the heart of the St Claude Arts

District. The concert will be realized with Rich’s permission and

guidance. Sleep concerts are all-night events in which the audience

is asked to attend the concert with a sleeping bag and pillow

and to fall asleep while a slowly unfolding sonic texture evolves

over the course of the night and into the morning. People attending

the event are asked to be willing to sleep during the event or

at least to remain silent during the course of the nine hour experience.

Not merely a recreation of Rich’s original idea, Sommeil is

a conceptual, global remix of a performance type that addresses

one of the most basic functionalities of ambient and environmental

sound; music by which to sleep.

In the spirit of remix and the Creative Commons movement, Menard,

a Louisiana native, has compiled submissions of audio material

for the concert from nearly seventy artists across the globe.

These artists answered a call for submissions marketed online by

Experimedia Records which asked for music and field recording

to be used, remixed and mashed up during this nocturnal event.

Submissions include drones, found sound, recordings of natural

and unnatural environments and synthetic music created on synthesizers

and computers. Submitters have included radio scientists,

geologists, psychologists, sound artists, musicians, composers,

installation artists as well as several well known figures in the

ambient music scene. During the course of the evening, Menard

will remix these sleep submissions into a constantly evolving

sonic texture that will lull the audience to sleep. A quad-channel

surround sound system will be provided by Piety St Studios for

maximum sonic enhancement of the sleep space and ambient

video lighting will be provided in the form of a video loop by the

internationally acclaimed VJ CHIKA. Experimedia Records has

generously agreed to release multiple out takes from this concert

on its Internet label under a free Creative Commons license.

Sommeil: A Concert for Sleep will be nine hours of uninterrupted

music beginning at 10:00 pm on Saturday April 11th and ending

at 7:00 am on Sunday April 12th at Antenna Gallery . Tickets to

the evening event will be $15 and will include a light breakfast

at waking time. During the day of April 11th Antenna Gallery

will be opening the space to allow people who do not wish to

sleep through the night to hear the original submissions from the

international community of artists. We are asking $5 per hour to

experience the meditative environment of the sleep space and $3

per half an hour from noon to 9:00 pm on Saturday April 11th.

At 6 pm we will also be participating in the St Claude Gallery

Opening that falls on the second Saturday of each month. All

proceeds will benefit Antenna Gallery. Please visit tannermenard.

CURATOR AND SOUND ARTIST

Tanner Menard was born on September 20th, 1978 the same

month that Brian Eno published his essay entitled ‘Ambient

Music’. Cosmically connected to this conceptual shift in musical

consciousness, Menard’s music has always soared over minimalist

and ambient landscapes. At the age of 11 Menard composed

his first works for piano and quickly established a reputation as

a composer of minimalist music for orchestral forces. His work

‘joe’s last mix’ has been performed around the globe at a number

of distinguished festivals and was released in 2003 on Kafua

Records in Japan. In 2002 his sonic world was shaken by his experience

working with Naut Human, the well known Curator and

label owner at Recombinant Media Labs in San Francisco. There

he discovered the world of ambient and experimental electronic

music. In 2005 he served as an artist in residence at Arizona State

University where he collaborated with Jeph Jerman, Gary Hill

and Daniel Bernard Romain for his installation ‘envyronie’ which

combined orchestra, live electronics and desert recordings. His

collaboration with Jerman inspired a series of environmentally

based works and has subsequently marked the departure from

his classical and experimental backgrounds in favor of a world of

ambient landscapes and piano inspired sound meditations. Menard’s

music is released on Install Records, Archaic Horizon net

label, Friendly Virus net label, Kafua Records and Experimedia

(tbr) and his orchestral music has been published by Loose Filter

Music. His music has also appeared on the radio, on tv, in plays,

art galleries and major concert halls across the world and his blog

‘Tanner Menard’ is rapidly gaining international notoriety for such

collaborations as Sommeil: A Concert for Sleep and reviews and

interviews with an international pool of artists and label owners.

SUBMISSIONS

Tanner Menard and Experimedia Records have assembled a roster

of nearly seventy artists from around the globe including radio

scientists, geologists, psychologists, sound artists, musicians, composers,

installation artists as well as several well known figures in

the ambient music scene. These artists submitted material for Menard

to remix during the course of Sommeil: A Concert for Sleep.

Submissions include drones, found sound, recordings of natural

and unnatural environments and synthetic music created on synthesizers

and computers. A complete list of artists will be available

at the concert and will later be published on Tanner Menard’s

blog. Select works, remixed by Menard will appear on a release on

Experimedia Records in the months following the event.

Tomoroh Hidari
Alien Audio Absurdities

skug #51 | Text: Heinrich Deisl | Mon 23. Sep. 2002

Zwei Sachen: Tomoroh Hidari kann dem skug-Affiliates- und dem Grazer »Austrian Audience«-Umfeld zugeordnet werden. Nicht, dass das kryptisch daher kommen soll: Vielmehr sind es Referenzpunkte. Tracktitel wie »Schizoid Breakbeat Polka« und »Jolly Speedcore-Metal Ballad« stecken das Sound-Programm ab als lakonischen Verweis auf mehrfach gebrochene So-als-ob-D'n'B-Electronica mit vielen verwischten Hi-Hats, ziemlichem Hall und verqueren Beat-Strukturen, die eine Festplatte peristaltisch halt so von sich gibt. Teilweise hart am Fricklertum vorbei, ist »A.A.A.« ein Dekonstruktion reinster wohldosierter Stromstöße, die mit kaputten Beats das weiterführt, was in der elektronischen Ursuppe zwischen APX Twin und Mego-Masse herumwuselt.



Oliver Stummer on Dubnihilism (originally: Hypnopaedic Rhymes for Dubnihilistic Education) was the direct precursor to Alien Audio Absurdities. It was created during summer/fall of 2000 in vienna. I played all the guitars, some bass guitar, sampled some cello and jawharps, and also made heavy use of a borrowed nordlead1 and a virus, both played by hand and recorded to hd. The beats, some basses and basically all the rest was done on a p2 pc, with sound treatment in granulab (and probably others similar freeware programs) and programming/arrangemnt in acid. To be honest, it was a very low-fi affair, and im personally amazed listening to the material again for the first time in years � how fresh it still sounds. (Tomoroh Hidari, at the Court of the Nihilist Jester, 2008)

Robbie/F. grey on Dubnihilism:This album will only be a free download for 2 months. After that it will be available on Itunes and here for $6.
When i first met Oliver on SoulSeek i downloaded whatever of his own music he had shared at the time. Most of it i had listened to and enjoyed thoroughly, but there was this one LP that sounded drastically different than the rest. It was a strange mixture of dub music from all eras, early Lee Perry, mid 80s roots influenced production, and massively dipped in DSP creating a psychedelic soup that rivaled most Meat Beat Manifesto work. Dubnihilism is very head of it's time. Elements of modern electronic production ala Flying Lotus and Rustie can be heard on this record 7-8 years before these techniques caught on. One of the glitchest and most unpredictable Dub albums you will hear drawing influences from all eras of the musical genre. Oliver knows his dub music well and it shows in this LP. Robbie stumbled upon a mysterious myspace website of one titled the Dubnihilst. We still haven't figured out if this is Oliver playing a trick on us or not. (to be continued...)

Also Spoke Zerothruster 12" finally out!

and you can prelisten, order and marvel at it here:
http://www.recordlabelrecords.org/rlr09.html

here's a review from Ant at Normann Records:

"Got an ace 12" on Record Label Records from Tomoroh Hidari. 'Also Spoke Zerothruster' is housed in a strange brown sleeve that has like weird grass in it. It's like a compressed cow pat. The grooves on the vinyl inside reveal an awsomely twisted techno hybrid full of sharp and futuristic electroid sounds and beats that hark back to golden era Gescom. 'Nothing' is totally hypnotic with it's robotic electro rhythms and shards of noise and wicked synth sounds. 'Extinction Event' is a sinister track with tumbling disjointed beats and fractured percussion. It's abstract but there is groove their that kind of suggests jungle but never quite gets there which I like. 'Who Shot The Jazz Drummer?' is even more abstract but use or imagination and it's a piece that'll take you places with is seedy jazz undertone and interesting sound design. A pretty damn fresh 12" with hand numbered print. Highly Recommended." Ant of Norman Records
