Tool Kit II: Luc Ringeisen

“In 2020, authorities and a part of society classified music and culture in general as “non-essential.” Paradoxically, the COVID-19 pandemic itself and the successive lockdowns imposed by each country have proven how crucial music is for most of us, our well-being, and overall inner peace — especially during these severe trials and extended periods of isolation. 

Turn off your television and listen to the first trumpet notes of a Miles Davis album or the first syllables of Sade, and chances are your soul is instantly healed. In such moments we are also inspired, reformatted; because ultimately, we are what we listen to. 

Let me share with you a bit of what’s going on in my lockdown playlists these days. Good listening, let’s be patient and keep the faith.” Luc

This is my “Break the Glass — In Case of Emergency” kit to you:

Chronicles Of The 5 Senses – Kōrero

“The Chronicles of the 5 senses”

March 2020, we (artists, makers, creators, curators) are facing a major crisis in our work.
From now on, we will share our projects, experimentations, researches, productions only through a screen.
On the occasion of the launch of the Rings of Neptune
website, we wanted to share with you another vision of our artists and team.
What is making us human?
Our have five senses – sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell are defining us as person…
How the smell of the madeleine become the madeleine of Proust?
We want to question and bring the sensitive closer to you.
Not totally a quiz but not totally an Interview, the chronicle of the 5 senses, a modest concept where artists are invited to share what is making them who they are.

Eternal Poet VA – Shōen

"Eternal Poet VA"
[MBR002]

The new V.A. on Misbits Recordings, suitably titled “Eternal Poet,” is the label’s second excursion through the sound-art and experimental ambient realms. Familiar guests Boris Hagenbart and David Moss return for another otherworldly sonic transmission of visceral, syncopated samples, followed by Japanese duo Ohanami in an emotionally charged post-jazz exercise drenched in peaceful nostalgia. The flip-side features ten locked-grooves signed by Ohanami, Shoen, Shcaa, Smooth Operators, and REV, capturing diverse musical moments with transformative potential. The artwork is yet another puzzle piece of this utopian, peculiar ecosystem envisioned by Glitch Shop.

“Second excursion through the sound-art and experimental ambient realms. “

 

“Eternal Poet” further expands the vision that ambient music can be a mode of transport rather than a simple backdrop — a sophisticated world of endless possibilities.”

Sunshine During Nighttime Darkness
like neighboring constellations
we can serve each other
both as guides
and as company
my deepest wish
for you
is the company
of fellow lights
and the generosity
to light each other’s ways
as we each pass temporarily
into darkness
