Multiple feedback, layers of noise and found sounds undergo several treatments being modified by a series of stereo digital delay units whose parameters (delay time, reverse, freeze, etc.) are manipulated in real time through a low-frequency oscillator or from other analog sampling devices. Many regulations are manual and are made live, with the purpose of …

Sometimes working under his own name and at other times working as Arcane Device, which he has done since the mid-1980s, New Yorker David Lee Myers creates music using feedback systems, most of which he makes and develops himself. On this recent album “Strange Attractors”, Myers feeds a mix of feedback, found sounds and other …

J’avais sélectionné ce disque, puis je l’avais écarté, déçu par quelques fragments. L’ayant écouté voici peu dans sa continuité, ce qu’on ne peut pas toujours faire, ou ce qu’on ne prend pas le temps de faire pour diverses raisons, j’ai été conquis. D’où sa réintégration dans ces colonnes. Artiste visuel et sonore vivant à …

Alcuni concetti sono ricorrenti perché affascinano numerosi artisti. David Lee Myers ne riapre uno spesso frequentato di recente, grazie alle continue conferme dalla fisica quantistica: il tempo non esiste. Noi siamo organismi che crescono e cambiano, in un prima e in un dopo. Ma quello che misuriamo è un continuum. Giorno e notte li consideriamo …

Gerade ist ein neues Album des New Yorker (Klang-)Künstlers David Lee Myers erschienen, der auch unter seinem Projekt Arcane Device bekannt ist, es enthält vier auslandende Tracks von meist kreisender Dröhnung, die sich in Fülle und Intensität stetig steigert. Ein wesentlicher Fokus des u.a. auf Feedback, gesampleten Geräuschen und digitalen Zeiteffekten (Delay, Reverse etc.) basierenden …

Strange Attractors ist ein Beispiel für das, was man Zeitverschiebungsmusik nennen könnte. Eine wechselnde Mischung aus Rückkopplungen, anderen Geräuschquellen und gefundenen Klängen wird in eine Reihe von digitalen Stereo-Verzögerungseinheiten eingespeist, deren Parameter (Verzögerungszeit, Reverse, Freeze usw.) in Echtzeit über LFOs, Sample- und Hold-Regler usw. sowie durch manuelle Live-Anpassungen manipuliert werden, um ein sich ständig weiterentwickelndes …

Strange Attractors to przykład tego, co można nazwać muzyką Time Displacement. Zmienna mieszanka sprzężeń zwrotnych, innych źródeł hałasu i znalezionych dźwięków jest podawana do serii stereofonicznych cyfrowych delayów, których parametrami manipuluje się w czasie rzeczywistym za pomocą LFO, kontrolerów sampli, a także ręcznych zmian na żywo, aby stworzyć stale ewoluujący pastisz dźwięków. Siedzenie w ciszy (zwłaszcza późno w nocy) i słuchanie tych kompozycji może być dziwnie ekscytujące. …

Myers has been pushing at the boundaries of electronic music for longer than some folks have been alive, and his continuing explorations within such variegated arenas serve to excite and regularly illuminate the more mundane aspects of existence. Most of this is due to the fact that Myers, whether under his given name or as …

I don’t think I ever met David Lee Myers, formerly known as Arcane Device and active since the mid-80s. His work centres around using feedback systems, most of his own making. Over time, this system was expanded, and Myers also used other sounds next to the feedback. By using delay systems, LFO and all sorts …
