This Week 5 Years Ago....

Yepp. This week 5 years ago Dark White Morning was recorded, unmixed, unedited and unoverdubbed.
Time flies like a jetplane.
It seems like yesterday, but also like 30 years ago.
Life's nothing but a surreal pudding.
Cheers for us!

Classic ! ! !

Can't resist this piece of art.
Joe Yamanaka was the original lead singer of Flower Travelli' Band when they released their super classic Japanese prog-psych album Satori in 1971.
This live version can't be more than 5-10 years old and he still has his strange voice kept in good condition.
I have no idea who the other musicians are, but I doubt any of them are from the original FTB line up. The three drummers in a row are nice...

Joxfield ProjeX vs. Ambient DarkWhite

It's made and it's played

Joxfield ProjeX vs. Ambient DarkWhite

Ambient DarkWhite's noir piece Death of a Sirloin Steak has reached its destiny through a Joxfield ProjeX' psychedelic ambient noise RMX, The Steak.

Capture it on the player - Shake yer legs Yeh Yeh Bla Bla!

Might be released as a split single in Futura

The Joxfield ProjeX Dance Patrol

Anyday Now

Just an ordinary Saturday morning, could be any day and it just is.
The sun is shining and that's nice, brings some energy to life.

On the player is Acid Mothers Temple & The Melting Paraiso U.F.O.'s 'Cometary Orbital Drive' (2008), a 70 minutes piece divided into four parts, based on the note sequence A-E-D-A-G-Db, repeated within the frames of various surroundings, creating a mantra-like psychedelic symphony of a kind seldom heard.

Following that is the same band's very beautiful and varied 'Univers Zen Ou De Zéro A Zéro' (2002), the extended 4 LP version. Could this be Acid Mother's best album? No-one will tell you and no-one will ever know. Band pix above is probably from around that time.

Anyway,
meanwhile working hard on the cover of the forthcoming split single by Joxfield ProjeX/Ambient Darkwhite, 'The Steak RMX'/'Death Of A Sirloin Steak'.
Stricly limited once in a lifetime pressing, out on Tin Can Music in a present future close to you.
Keep updated!

Other Activities

The cold and gloomy winter continues.
Maybe it's a bit beautiful when the sun shows up and the white snow tenderly sparkle.
But, when it's grey and cloudy, day after day....
Ok, there are other activities to do other than whatching the sky and catalogize the shifting of clouds.
You can read what your favourite reviewer has in mind..

Phantastique

Here we go: Joxfield ProjeX' Christmas gift to you all.

"Phantastique" is a virtual LP. The intension was to make a straight, plain and simple jam record based on some repetitive patterns, at least in Joxfield ProjeX' terms of what is straight, plain and simple. Not to get too much stuck into the spacey jams the tunes are separated by some short experimental pieces. Look at these moments as opportunities to get some good, fresh air.
Even though it's maybe not heard in the music, the main inspirational sources for these recordings are some albums by Acid Mothers Temple, especially Kawabata Makoto's mixing style, but also some funky grooves from Miles Davis' 'On The Corner' period.
This album should be played LOUD, in excitement and full awareness.

Recorded at Camps Anna & Batang 2007-2009
Produced by Oax & Yan of Joxfield ProjeX
Powered by Tin Can Music

Yan: Keyboards, percussion programmer
Oax: Guitars, bass, voice- & percussion samples

This is Joxfield ProjeX fifth Clinical Archives release.
ThanX Alex for majestic support!

December Is Grey And Cold...

..Yes, it really is.
And how to survive?
Maybe a kind of luxury problem knowing we don't have to starv
and we do have roofs over our heads when we want,
we don't have to freeze, we have cloths, we can go inside if it gets too chilly,
etc etc etc
Nevertheless,
sometimes we get bored
and on occasions like that we grab hold on the best we have:
CULTURE!
which here means
MUSIC!
which here means
MUTANT SOUNDS!,
possibly the best ever blog site for download links of very, I mean
VERY!
interesting music, mostly unknown, at least in my little world.
Experimental and underground of all kinds (synth, prog, psyxch, contemporary, sound constructions, name it), always music with a twist, always pointing forward.
It's rips of LPs, Cassettes, CDRs, CDs, whatever, mainly from the 70's and 80's, but could be from anytime.
All music are from very unavailable albums, out of stock for ages.
Kind of mental lifesaver...
Or something

2009 Kolpebo Sessions - November

O, Mah God, was it really time again, 2½ years since last time in June 2007?
The strict and quick answer is: Yes!
So, we headed for Camp Kolpebo, the beautiful recording enviroment, the heart of our creativity, when we comes together in the same room with our instruments, our opened minds and some basic recording equipment (yeah yeah, beer, wine and whisky, we know... let's not talk about it...)

The magnificent view from our window.
It seems to be a bit cold outside.
Beer and food inside the house this time, we guess...

This is a table...

... and Yan start to unpack the gear...

Done!

And so with the guitarist's stuff...

Action (1)

Action (2)

Hum Di Dumm.... This Is Abnormal Science...
Ableton Live's a bit tricky for The Dept. of Technology, but works fine in the end

The Innocent Dreamer

Ola & The Jugglers

That's it, folks.
Five days of hard work.
Almost 4 hours of terror ready for edits, treatments, adds, whatever...
Stuff back into the car.
House cleaned.
Off we go...

But...ehhrr....The Result?

Wait and see, just wait and see.
The future will come closer and closer and one day...
Say no more

A big THANX to Thomas & Anette for letting us use the house

What's Up?

Anyone out there wondering what has happened with the flow of info on this site?
O, just cool down.
There is nothing to be said about this.
We're in the preparation mood, soon getting together for another (in)famous, weeklong, 24-hours-a-day recording session at Camp Kolpebo.
Even the future has a beginning. This is where our future begins.
So, once again, just cool down, lean back, enjoy every existing moment of life and wait for a future near you to arrive.........

Wonderful Review by Kert Semm

These wonderful words written by Kert Semm could be found on
Engendered from Divine Breath - a site dedicated to the free released music:

Joxfield ProjeX Bits And Pieces # 1- 13 (Clinical Archives)

I ought to admit I do have a little knowledge about Swedish avant-garde music. Fixing the mind on this I am able to name only some examples having came from the end of the 70`s and the first half of the 80s. Early Blue Nun, Cosmic Overdose, and young Arvid Tuba as well. Recently I figured out that there have been two musicians behind the pseudonyms Oax, and Yan who have collaborated since the end of the 60`s, although Joxfield ProjeX itself was established in 2005.

Supposed that they are aged men, maybe with white long beards too, but thanks to their long-running musical experience they are still generating the sound which is far more innovate than the most young musicians are able to create nowadays. Up to 2009 they had released lots of albums on the label Tin Can Music. In the recent year all 3 albums (in fact, some days ago they issued their fourth album already!) have been released under Clinical Archives. Yes, I can`t go without spruiking them. All their albums are masterpieces in itself.

The album Picnic is dominated by ambient dub, and ambient techno tunes in a bit narrower range respectively. Homogeneous yet decorous drift of hesychastic sounds which best days were ended up by the first half of the 90s.

Virtual Dreams & Realities consists of 2 tracks - the first of them is long of 43 minutes and divided in 11 parts. By conceptual side you can find huge similarities with Faust`s The Faust Tapes, though, by sonic facade it is more angular and schizoid. All the music presented here ranges from sound fragments of rural ambience to metronomic rhythm machine, space rock and kosmische musik as well. Faust, Gong, Canterbury scene seem to be some differentiable influences among others, as I would suppose. It might be the Finnish bands like Kospel Zeithorn, and Ester Poland are the closest kindred spirits of them nowadays. However, it is quite hard work to describe all those events happening throughout this track. The another track bases on a pulsating techno beat and vocal sample, which are surrounded by different kind of sonic and voice effects moving more or less chaotically around the basic axis.

Bits And Pieces # 1 – 13 consists of 2-3-minutes tracks, which in the context of Joxfield ProjeX does mean the tracks with shorter duration as usually used to be. 13 tracks in 35 minutes.
The artists and writers sampled here are Guillaume Apollinaire, Man Ray, Jean Cocteau, James Joyce, Allen Ginsberg, William S Burroughs, and Ezra Pound as well. Yet, it can`t be considered as a spoken word album in a narrow sense of this word. The basic essence of the album is developed into a vast threedimensionality, having conquered by flowing industrial-sounding guitar riffs and cosmic synth grooves. While the track Black Light returns to the concept of the album Picnic. Bits And Pieces... may have a surreal point of view just to open up in front of us the dilation of outer space in the form of music and nondescript incantation of those aforementioned dadaists and beatniks. Upon listening to vibrating buzz of the final track As Conceptual As... I would like to think a journey that started somewhere in the rangeland on Virtual Dreams & Realities has reached the middle point of outer space. Of course, it is my own fiction based on my choice to get bobbled the queue of three albums.

Actually it does not make any difference what kind of way will this album be criticized - face-to-face with another albums or in absolute way. The result used to be evenhandedly powerful and impressive anyway.




We can't anything but say ThanX Kert, big words!

The Muse In Music

Reasd today:
The Muse In Music presents: New music tuesday:

"I needed a day to let this one process. It’s Shimmering/Mah No 1 by Joxfield ProjeX. The first track explores the cosmos in brick-and-mortar terms, the second, in a more virtual way. Very interesting stuff. The shorter of the two cuts clocks in at just under 20 minutes, so don’t approach this with any EP dread.

For a taste, try this clip:



That’s “Have I Been Here Before,” and no, friends, you have not."

And, of course we thank Fred for uplifting words.

Shimmering Mah No 1 - New Release On Clinical Archives

Yes!
Here we go again. The fourth Joxfield ProjeX release this year on the sublime avante-whatever free download netlabel Clinical Archives.

"Shimmering Mah No 1"(ca310) – almost 48 minutes of unmistakable Joxfield ProjeX music in their most heavy, progressive, psychedelic space-rock moods, with roaring instruments; the playful jazzy electric pianos, the screaming guitars, break-the-ceiling-basses, wild electronics, rumble keyboards eccentric voice samples and rough arty rolling drumbeats – all of it pointing out new directions of their uncontrolled, explosive creativity.

Should be played LOUD, in excitement and full awareness.

So, go and get it! Now!

What On Earth Is Going On?

Can anyone explain?
Are things getting out of our hands?
Why do we treat ourself like we do?
Or is this just the beginning of the new reality?
Or may it be signs of the soon-to-be-famous 2009 Sessions?
The death of Joxfield or the death of a sirloin steak?
Or?
tbc...
