A sonic Covid vaccine, will it work?

Another exciting Covid inspired song, this one released right at the start of the pandemic, in April 2020, just over a month after the madness began. In its own subtle ways, it reflects and accurately evokes the state of confusion, chaos, desperation and despair that ensued and that is still very much a reality up till today. In his new record, Swiss music producer and composer Eisentanz showcases the new depths of his artistic intelligence and prowess. If you thought any of his previous masterpieces that were created without a single musical instrument were baffling, mind-boggling and awesome, this will really make you scratch your head. In a whopping 21 minutes and 22 seconds, you’ll hear the world around you differently. Whether you’ll be fully vaxxed at the end of it is still a mystery. Sorry to disappoint you, but it looks like N95s are here to stay.

It's all in your mind

Brussels music composer and producer, Seiswork returns with another mind-boggling track that is guaranteed to get listeners thinking hard, if nothing else at all. The 9 minute music composition is just as disturbing as it is compelling to listen to. There are no easily identifiable sounds or musical instruments; just mysterious, quiet,  muffled noises and whispers. It starts off suspenseful and then unravels to become even more suspenseful. It’s like having a bad dream about a bad dream waiting to happen that never really happens. It’s like a villain lurking in the dark forever and never emerging for the final battle. It’s almost like the sound of fear, or maybe the sound of darkness. This dull and mysterious musical composition tells a story and paints a picture without a single melody, chord, or as little as a note. It stimulates a different emotion in every listener, one that is unexplainable and impossible to put into words every time. This is not a song, it’s a musical masterpiece.

I can't believe it's not music

5 tracks that will change the way you hear everything

The only way you could possibly ever be prepared for this utterly exciting and rewarding creative expedition that could change the way you hear music and the sounds in the world around you as a whole forever is to get a litre of Jack Daniels No. 7 whiskey, some really good weed, a gynaecologist, a cape, a grossly overweight hooker and some really good running shoes and make your way down to the nearest athletics track making sure you've completely run out of booze and rolling paper by the time you get there. Now, with the gynaecologist and the hooker at one end of a 100 meter straight and stirrups in position, put your cape on and charge from the other end like a mad goat with a grudge. You'll need to try a few times to get it right.

It would make absolutely no sense at all if you were even the slightest bit prepared for this album, that's all that means - don't get any ideas. This album, like every previous release by the masterful Belgian experimental music producer, sound designer and sound engineer, Seiswork is all about exploring the depths and discovering the limits of sound as well as studio equipment. Prepare to have your mind boggled.

"Tunnel"
Experimental

Everything sounds much more interesting after a doze of this

Eisentanz is a talented music producer and sound engineer from Zurich, Switzerland who takes everyday sounds like the sound of a boiling kettle, running water, a door closing or opening, the sound of hitting a trash can, the sound of slapping your palm against a wall, traffic noises and other ordinary everyday noises and turns them into music. When you reach the stage in your music listening and discovery career when you feel like you've heard it all, this is where you go - Eisentanz' playground. Here, you'll re-tune, fine-tune, refresh, re-energize and optimise your ears in ways you never thought possible, and start hearing things differently when you walk around - but don't worry, in a good way.

Eisentanz latest album, "Tunnel" is a 10 track masterpiece that grossly surpassed anything his rapidly growing fan base and even the toughest Swiss music critics could have anticipated or even wished for in a million years. It'll take you to a special place where dark and light tones know no bounds, where colour merges with black and white seamlessly and where everything resonates in harmony. Reserve this for when you are really ready to zone out, or when you need to create an ambience that's free from words but full of life.

"Nothing You Can Tune Out"
Experimental


Your first lesson in listening to music like a pro.

If you've ever read a song or album review on a top mainstream music blog or website and wondered why critics thought it was so amazing yet you didn't understand what the hype was all about, you are not alone. For music insiders, music producers, seasoned or well-guided artists/bands and record companies, there's a lot more to a hit record than lyrics and vocal performance - that's just the tip of the iceberg. 

Technological advancements in music production and sound engineering has led to a lot of amazing new sounds over the past couple of decades. Understanding and getting a feel for the subtle textures, timbres and dynamics, and knowing exactly what you are hearing could take you from being a passive listener simply enjoying a record on the surface to a more advanced listener who really appreciates today's music, and even old classics on a much deeper level. Don't worry you are not about to be enrolled into a 3 year advanced music production degree, there are producers and sound engineers out there who dedicate their careers to experimenting with sound and all you have to do is listen to what they do a little closely and with time your ears will start to learn (hopefully).

The good Dr. Dre created Beats by Dre headphones so that listeners could hear exactly what is heard in the recording studios where the records are created, and other brands are following suit and creating more accurate audio reproduction headphones and speakers, so now all you need to do is fine tune your ears a little bit, and you are on your way to rediscovering music in a whole new light.

If you've never listened to experimental music then this is a good place to start. Belgian underground electronic music producer and sound engineer, Seiswork has been working behind the scenes for years exploring and pushing the limits of electronic sound, which you'll find in almost every music genre you listen to today. He has amassed a solid repertoire of works many top producers today would revere and he is quickly becoming one of the top acts to reckon with in experimental electronic music. His latest track "Nothing You Can Tune Out" is a collaboration with another avid music producer, Tensor, from Pittsburg, USA and was released just under a month ago. Put your headphones on and treat your ears. If you are begging for more at the end of the song then head over to the Skunk Radio Live Record Store at RecordStore.SkunkRadioLive.com and download Seiswork's first SRL EP.

You'll never complain about a bad pop record again.

Don't forget to share this with other music lovers you know who may be having a hard time understanding/enjoying today's music.
