RxB: A Guest Mix by RxRy

· Mixes · Tagged With: ,

Inspired by some shadow-talk the other night, Rx dug into his hard drive, switched on the machinery, and came out with RxB. In his text:

“i am laid up. hurt, not sick. i’ll be alright. i am spaced on good grass and some soundwaves…lounging in afternoon light in a shit-brown colored living room.
here is a mix as dirty as these walls…

been hearing about all of this 90s R&B influenced music that has been coming out…
wondering what took the world so long…
of course we have rhythm
of course we have blues.
i hear a lot of four tet in most of these bands…but no four tet on the mix.
i think burial and flying lotus are polar predecessors
there are a few old secrets i see in the folds (dragons/projectors)
frank ocean is the wonderchild
the weeknd is the new face
how to dress well is the secret
toro y moi is (more than “chillwave”)
lots of reverb and rubbery rhythm…
lots of vocal work or vocal samples.
i am heavy on it.

i dubbed this hot and hard, and gave it some of my own space and vacuum…

sounds choice MAXED on your laptop speakers (on purpose).

this mix nods at a genre that really captures my attention. because i have attention.
turn it up and tune out while dancing in the full length mirror of your imagination…
…thinking about your spirit transcending choreography. “

 

ALPHA vinyl arrives in June.

RxRy | L.3_Glacious

Glacious belongs to L, which resides in Alpha, a complete and approaching release. This massive particle arrangement will be worth the wait, and hopefully can spread over some wax one day.
RxRy‘s self portrait hangs above, and words, below:

in a space between two points of light
a swarm of dust ripples waves
on the open jaws of the evening

yawn like rain clouds parting slowly
across the entombed face of geography
frozen in ice that was Mesozoic vapors

galactic gyre of fractured meteoric tail
across the tender arc of the glass dome
the soft curve of the sky’s one skull

suspended in dry air over opaque ranges
the flux of tide’s shallowest breath
spinning sand and bones in spiracles

harbingers of stasis and furled feathers
as slow as the sun forgetting favor
or diamonds flowing cold in the brook.

space clouds tail dry feathers

dust geography glass tide’s favor

jaws ice skull spiracle diamonds

tail feathers
glass favor
skull diamonds

clouds dry
geography tides
ice spiracle

space
dust
jaws

Fascinating days these are, where a figure like RxRy can thrive in the dark, letting sounds and images swirl into visible persona. His true identity is known by some, and isn’t nearly as protected as others may think. He is simply an artist who prefers a low profile, not for benefit of hyperbole, but rather the idea that we can be transported by art without having to look it square in the eye. The objective here is to give a glimpse at his world of operation, somewhat personally, but more so musically.

In a way, this all began last January, when S&S unknowingly became a vehicle for RxRy; one he could regularly share creations and words through. With each of his emails came a progression, another ‘drownstep’ mission, and a somehow natural corresponding post. That unspoken bond was occasionally helped along by a “thanks” or “cheers” or “I haven’t seen the ocean in ages, tell her hello next time” via Gchat, until recent longer exchanges came about. Together we decided that it might work best to publish the very transcripts from those late night sessions (figuratively referred to as “the shadows”). Note: they have been structured and cleaned up a bit for easier reading. And there’s a new song somewhere in there…

It seems every few months RxRY takes over controls here with a new transmission from his constant, mechanical galaxy. This one coded over just in time for a Monday morning:

I have been steady at work on this new album “Ω”
drinking red wine
and staying a float.

here are 3 songs
2 of them will be on “Ω”

tempranillo butterflies
and overcast autumn skies’ lining
