A
Carefully
Controlled
Space
by
Soft
Generator
[2021]
A duo with David Newman featuring artwork by Tom Tebby. Hypnotic rest as
a portal to recovery.
Our first outing as Soft Generator. A chess-by-mail exercise in sound
therapy.
In this new release, we welcome a collaboration between David Newman
(Autistici) and Erik Schoster (He Can Jog). These artists have released
music individually across a range of labels including 12k, KESH,
Hibernate, Home Recordings, Audiobulb Records and Distance Recordings.
This duo have worked together to form Soft Generator, with their
inaugural release featuring artwork by collage artist Tom Tebby.
‘A Carefully Controlled Space’ was crafted with orchestral sounds,
analogue and modular synthesisers, computer generated routines, the
Pippi Computer System pippi.world and field recordings. The work centres
on the idea of hypnotic rest as a portal to recovery. Referencing the
process of Asclepeion ‘sleep temples’, visited by the citizens of
ancient Greece, the album wonders what it would be like to go through
the ritual and process in modern times. A Carefully Controlled Space
imagines a remedy as it reaches out and offers each listener a chance to
reset, heal and escape.
