about

SONICA FLOWING 828 - Ep by RebelLog.
This EP mainly aims to support contemporary dance pedagogy which focus on experimentation/improvisation. The constant flow of sonic changes intends to boost the perception of sound's spectrum as well as to stimulate an acoustic culture beyond the sonic mainstream market. In SONICA FLOWING 828 there is no beat exactly like the other, but rather a constant flow of evolving sonic inputs to move the inner and outer space of dancing bodies.
RebelLog `s influences are very diverse: from techno to Afro Brazilian, from electronic experimental to traditional "bossa" - jazz. Mainly produced with analog synths, played by RebelLog, the compositions make use of improvisational phrases, polyrhythms, unexpected accents, loops, wide frequency shifts on the edge of being off tuned, some jazz melodies and voice without lyrics (except the phrase "Rainha do Mar") in order to inspire and expand the range of one 's creative movements.

About the tracks:
Sonic Flow in 5 Acts: Act 1 - Expansion da Capo (0 Min.), Act 2 - Atonal Shifts (03:34 Min.), Act 3 - Bass Agentur (07:01Min.), Act 4 - Technosamba Schizophrenia (09:13Min.), Act 5 - Tribal Backwards / Electrifying Water (12:18 Min.)
Another excuse to dance uninterruptedly for 16 min. No easy listening. The full track keeps the same bpm - beats per minute - (138 with small fluctuations) throughout, but over five different sessions it changes mood with unexpected variation of rhythm / accents, frequencies shifts (from very low bass, which "speaks" to body organs to very high-pitched sounds), as well as different notions of outer space dimension (close and far source of sound). This track also challenges the "Music / Noise" borders. Few suggestions ...#Freeimpro, #Interpretingfrequencies, #energylevels, #expansion, #powerthru, #flying, #contact, #organs, #somatic, #tribal, #spinning.

Breaking Patterns: The title says it - here also the same bpm (110) throughout the track but trying to break accent patterns, music metrics and loops. A vintage sound. Breaking vicious patterns to find new stuff. Few suggestions ... #flocking, #inhibition, #hesitation, #breakingfree #echo, #questionanswer.

Rainha do Mar: About bodies of water / water reflections in echo delay evolving to a full percussion session. "Rainha do Mar "(Queen of the Ocean) refers to the Afro Brazilian folklore ocean goddess "Iemanjá". Thx to percussion group "Axé da Mata" in this instance. Few suggestions ... #waving, #eights, #percussive, #arriving, #somatic, #BMCliquids, #warmup.

BPM Lament: A nearly constant change of the bpm, with a voice / trumpet jazz line. To challenge the notion of expected time units /any kind of time. Few suggestions ... #slackingoff, #cooldown, #massage.

Bonus Track: Ravel: as in tangling up and a "Maurice Ravel" (Bolero) homage. Few suggestions ... #accumulation, #repetition, #atempo/double tempo, #ravelunravel.
