Paying homage to his musical moniker, the Bologna-based producer makes timely metallic interjections amidst lush, effortlessly groovy soundscapes. Explore a world of found, recycled, and synthesized sound on \"Faded Views\" out everywhere September 8.\n\nBologna-based producer, DJ, and sound collector Godblesscomputers has returned with the release of his fourth full-length record, \"Faded Views.\" Godblesscomputers's latest LP \"The Island\" (2020, La Tempesta Dischi) earned him placement on Spotify playlists like \"Brain Flood\" and \"Coffee Club.\" Since then, his appearance on Willie Peyote's track \"La colpa al vento\" landed GBC on \"Best of Indie Italia 2022.\" On \"Faded Views,\" it was Godblesscomputers's creative project to explore the sonic potentials of his direct environment, picking up recordings and threads of inspiration from the most commonplace occurrences. A sonic scavenger, Godblesscomputers explored the expanses of his-both digital and physical-soundscapes. \"Faded Views\" does the work of crafting a unified, yet complex compilation of the noises that mark the experience of being digital natives in ever-expanding dimensions.\n\nGodblesscomputers's use of musique concrète and found-sound composition melds curiously with his undeniable electronic and techno acumen. Superimposing metallic electronica onto esoteric sound bytes creates the occasion for complex sound collage. \"Faded Views\" marks a decade since the genesis of the Godblesscomputers project; the entire LP testifies to how time warps perception and sound. Godblesscomputers's music seems to decorate time, both commemorating the moments passed with mind-melting sonic collages and looking forward to the infinitudes of the future with frenetic electronic experimentation.\n\nThemes of impermanence and transience-hence \"Faded Views\"-pervade the record. Godblesscomputers blurs time as each track seeps into the next in what feels like a seamless transition. He makes these swift passages in genre as well-the record opens on \"Colors\" with a rich horn section which frictionlessly becomes a lo-fi dance groove. It is this melding of the analog and the electronic that makes sense of his found approach to beat-making: Godblesscomputers marries the found and the synthesized; the creator and the created; the past and the future. The process of sonic dissection and recomposition that drives much of Godblesscomputers's creative process yields not only assertive breakdowns and animated dance tracks, but also complex tapestries of sound that keep the listener ever-intrigued-piano, saxophone, and modular synthesis all find a natural home on tracks like \"Hello.\" In an apt description, the producer's work has been described as \"sounding like wood, metal, and microchip.\"\n\nGodblesscomputers's artistic objective lies in blurring definitive lines, constantly shifting perspectives, genres, and origins of inspiration. On \"Faded Views,\" this design cultivates a folktronica record that truly evades definition.\n\nFeelgood lead single \"Mirrors\" is out June 30th and features a rich meld of warbling layers, mixing upbeat dance music with complex instrumentation. Stream second single, \"Above the Lake,\" for a mellow summer cut on July 21. Finally, the effortlessly groovy third single \"You Feel Me\" captures a genre-warping foray into folktronica. Listen to \"You Feel Me\" on August 11.\n\nAll LP artwork and stunning single visualizers were single-handedly put together by multi-disciplinary designer Michael Norman. \"Faded Views\" will be available everywhere physically and digitally on September 8, 2023. Be sure to listen for focus track \"Hello\" that captures the vast scope of Godblesscomputers's musical prowess. Find the LP, CD, and digital release on 823's and Jakarta Records's Bandcamp and local record stores.\n\nOnline promotion for \"Faded Views\" is being directed by the label and artist profiles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"823 Records","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50443306369355,"sku":"2048552","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_f7ef39c6_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727012250"},{"product_id":"so-far-to-go","title":"So Far To Go","description":"\u003cp\u003eHailing from Sydney, Australia, prolific producer Cabu (860K Monthly Listeners and more than 90M cumulative streams on Spotify alone) has come a long way; from his successful remix work – from Joe Hurtz's \"Stay Lost\" edit (37M Spotify-streams) to Big Wild's \"Empty Room\" flip (20M Spotify-streams) – to his consistently catchy original productions, Cabu's only getting started. He keeps this momentum alive with the EP \"So Far To Go\", his first to be released by Ta-ku \u0026amp; Jakarta Records' sublabel 823 Records.\n\n823 is a perfect place for Cabu's bouncy, hypnotic grooves and is a return to form for what \"Cabu\" represents: a driving force in the pursuit of happiness through sound. It's a well-timed collaboration, as Cabu's fanbase has continuously grown over the past few years through features on Australia's Triple J, DJ Complexion's Future Beats Radio, Soundistyle, The South East Grind, Mutual Friends, ThisSongIsSick, Majestic Casual, Soulection Radio, BBC 1xtra, Pilerats, Maison Kitsune and more. To that end, \"So Far To Go\" features some of the most talented artists to come out of the Pacific continent, such as Milan Ring (95K monthly Spotify listeners) – coined \"Australia's R\u0026amp;B Princess\" by Apple Music – Brisbane native hit-maker Young Franco (1M+ monthly Spotify listeners), Kamaliza (123K monthly Spotify listeners), NOÉ, Gabby Nacua, Pastel and of course label-head Ta-ku himself.\n\n1st single, \"Process\" featuring Ta-ku \u0026amp; Milan Ring was released on November 3rd. Hypnotically bouncy, with heavenly synth pads, crisp percussive elements combined with the ethereal voices of Ta-ku and Milan harmonically push the sonic envelope to make this track an infallible groovy knockout. As Cabu says, \"Process\" is \"the dream-like state in which you take gratitude in your current situation whilst being hopeful in the future.\" The track provides a perfect taste of these artistic and creative powerhouses. The stunningly beautiful music video – directed by Sydney based Redscope Films and premiered on The Sound You Need – is the perfect accompaniment.\n\n2nd single, \"Sun \u0026amp; Moon\" featuring Young Franco \u0026amp; NOÉ is set to be released on December 10th along with an announcement of the EP and pre-order. The song is a contagiously bouncy bop, with the different vocal harmonies and synth chords giving the track an almost prime 00's throwback, it's the perfect year-end anthem to keep dancing and growing through the good and bad.\n\nThe album's focus track, \"About U\" featuring Kamaliza will be released along with the EP release on January 28th, 2022. The song perfectly blends electronic elements within an R\u0026amp;B \/ Soul aesthetic, and is all about moving forward with intention, from the lyrics to the groove, making you feel tipsy on life.\n\nAll singles off the EP will be accompanied with custom visualizers by Perth-based design \/ creative firm Gesture Systems. The album's single-releases and videos will be promoted in-house via the artist's and the label's social media channels in Germany and Australia.\n\nThe 823 label represents the appreciation for the people, ideas and places that inspire and push their protagonists forward. \"823 celebrates the simple beauty of everyday life and the people in it that inspire us.\" (Regan Matthews aka Ta-ku)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"823 Records","offers":[{"title":"12\"","offer_id":50521412206923,"sku":"2056332","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_15302272_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727991384"},{"product_id":"unsaid-gi","title":"Unsaid","description":"\u003cp\u003eDiscover Unsaid by Idealism x Lucid Green on 823 Records.
