about

Telharmoneom's Moiré one Four-Track 12" Vinyl EP is released by Akashic Records Berlin, through Energy Flash Distribution - Energy Flash/Technique, Tokyo Japan.

In collaboration with visual artist John Aslanidis, Moiré one features tracks created in Telharmoneom’s early 90s analogue synth studio, now reworked - and remastered in Germany - for a 21st century audience.

Sydney has a party town history, and rising from the ashes of the eighties hordern party juggernaut, the early nineties raves were injected into the collective consciousness by british backpackers who never left. Improvised, dusty and somewhat hazardous spaces were converted into classless, unified zones of ethereal enlightenment, and youth-fuelled liberation.

Filling up their ’67 Valiant with keyboards and drum machines, Telharmoneom ventured out into the abandoned warehouses, disused silos, car parks, train yards and train tunnels. Milk crates and ironing boards propped up a non-hierarchical array of resonant frequency devices.

A1: Listen to the Earth [Gio90s Mix]

Originally on Clan Analogue’s EP1, Listen to the Earth has had a complete restructure without losing any of it’s overly gleeful elements. The swampy bass-lines are met with equally evocative vocal samples. The Presets have been known to do acapella renditions of this track.

A2: Fireblood [Lesa Mix meets Original]

So many versions of this track were composed. This version combines the alien disco plodding vibes of the ‘Lesa Mix’ - that featured on a Triple J CD compilation - with the unreleased 'Original Mix' of 1992, a sparsely dreamy analogue beat shuffle.

B1: Xevorker

A never released track originally performed by Telharmoneom’s sister act Loose Unit, Xevorker ventures into spazmodic analogue jazz funk territories only now understood by advanced forms of AI. Additional composition comes from percussionist Alistair Wallis.

B2: Zod [SA90 Edit]

An ethereal gated Prophet 5 montage that journeys between euphoria and beautiful angst, into 909 doof zones and back again. The Zod ‘SA90 edit’ is an excerpt of a live performance recorded in the Clan Analogue open air space (the tent blew away) at Vibe Tribe Party ‘Fun Raiser’, held in Sydney Park 1994.

The Tracks on Moire one are presented in parrallel with the artwork of aclaimed Australian visual artists John Aslanidis.

John Aslanidis took deep influence from the energy of this late twentieth century inner-city zeitgeist, often returning home from a ‘doof’ in the early morning to a ‘work in progress’. John’s abstract, concentric, interlocking, moiré like creations are very much the visual synthesis of sound in motion.

Soon, slide projections of his work were projected, tangential to the rhythmic syncopations of Telharmoneom, creating a freshly mutated sensory experience. Both parties enveloped in this wave of feedback created new work as an experiential reaction.

Here, John’s 'Sonic No. 61' painting sits alongside the first solo EP from Telharmoneom. Two artists are in unison on Moiré one for the first time since their frequent outings during the 90s.

Moiré one is the first volume of the Moiré series of EPs featuring tracks from the vast archive of twentieth century Telharmoneom compositions.

Berlin’s Akashic Records is itself launching with this EP.

about

telharmoneom Sydney, Australia

In 1991, two humans met on a railway station, one was carrying a casio cz-101. Not long after, Telharmoneom was formed and a small mountain of second hand analogue synthesisers had been amassed. Being non-musicians, a DIY punk ethos guided the creation of left-field machine music, that loosely lived within the emerging rave cultural habitat.

Telharmoneom are Kazumichi Grime and Brendan Palmer.
