Nine new artists from six different countries join ABLAZE Records for the second disc in their new series of ELECTRONIC MASTERS discs. HUBERT HOWE (USA)—has contributed a work based in classical music synthesis and built around the idea of establishing sound from gradually aggregating upper partials until the aggregation becomes so representative that the fundamental tone emerges. This is a clever, inventive and technically astute work from a master of computer music. NIKOLET BURZYŃSKA (POLAND)—is a very gifted young composer from Poland whose work for electronics and flute already shows significant accomplishment, polish and mesmerizing aural beauty. JUAN CARLOS VASQUEZ (COLUMBIA)—has written a work that de-constructs Beethoven’s “Waldstein” sonata, using complex digital audio processes to create an entirely different work. This is a sophisticated and intriguing electronic composition of impressive quality. STEVE McCOURT (IRELAND)—contributes an unusual work drawn primarily from processed sounds of mobile phone interference. These sounds are integrated with other recorded and computer-generated sounds to explore chaotic gestures and turbulent textures. WILLIAM PRICE (USA)—joins ABLAZE with a work that explores abrupt, visceral changes in gestural noise, dynamics, and stereo spatialization, while also focusing on timbral counterpoint and the superimposition of thick, slow-moving, granulated textures. NICOLA MONOPOLI (ITALY)—contributes a work generated using continuous resampling of the human voice. These recordings have been processed using a C‐Sound Sampler on non-processed files, but also on the outputs of C‐Sound, with an almost recursive process. MEI-FANG LIN (TAIWAN,CHINA)—has written a work that was derived through the process of analysis/synthesis of pre-existing sounds as well as through granular synthesis for the electronic sounds with very similar approaches guiding the composition of acoustic music. CODY KAUHL (USA)—has written an electroacoustic composition in which recorded samples of mechanical objects are constructed and arranged in a manner that transforms the static sound textures of technology into flourishing gestures more akin to living organisms. JOHN NICHOLS III (USA)—work is a stereophonic fixed-media composition. Additive synthesis components were created using Digital Instrument for Sound Synthesis and Composition (DISSCO), and recordings were made in University of Illinois Experimental Music Studios and field recordings were taken in Chicago. The dream-inspired title is a reference to a passage from Eduard von Hartmann.
