The label has also issued vinyl records, video tapes, and DATs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe artists presented by Soleilmoon cover many musical territories, but all share in common an appreciation of the possibilities available through the creative use of technology. Much of the music is dark and electronic, but there are also examples of ethnic influences, ambient soundscapes, and even harsh experimental noise pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1999, Soleilmoon launched a sub-label called Caciocavallo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSoleilmoon’s sister company was Staalplaat, which was based in Netherlands but is now based in Germany.

I would be happy if you used it in any way you want, which these days means “manipulate at your leisure” with as much technology as you feel, or not perhaps. Myself, I love to slow these pieces down, or drop them two octaves for a section or not. Please experiment and edit and re\/edit backwards or forwards whenever you feel the urge. If you feel it. Some of these pieces are also very happy just sitting under your film doing nothing. A bit like a jam filling in a cake. Just filling a visual space with sounds. Unspecific. Vague. Just being in your film. They love this role a lot. Sitting. Doing very little. Taking up space but never crowding the frame. You may want to re\/sample some of this music. Please feel free. The music here is all for you to play with. I have no idea how I made it either, that doesn’t really matter does it? But I try to be simple and strong. - Simon Fisher Turner\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soleilmoon","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50391043572043,"sku":"2184725","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/simon_fisher_turner_new_modern_music_SOL202CD_ff4c8c4d_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726396750"},{"product_id":"symphony-of-a-great-city-backing-track","title":"Symphony of a Great City: Backing Track","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis score was commissioned for the film “Symphony of a Great City” by Walther Ruttmann. The musicians I choose to perform it with were Klara Lewis and Rainier Lericolais. I made the backing track using tones and pitches from MARX on Abletone Live. I then sent Klara and Rainier all my home recordings through the years I made when visiting Berlin, from the mid-eighties to the present day. The idea was that they could process anything from my source tapes, and not use anything else. This to me seemed an interesting idea, as then all the sounds would come from various times from the city and surrounding countryside itself. All of the sounds were recorded while I made music for two films. “Cycling the Frame” (1988) and “The Invisible Frame” (2009) by Cynthia Beatt. One was shot before the Soviet-era wall dividing the city came down, and the other afterwards. My original sounds for “Cycling the Frame” were recorded on cassette and I used a Casio SK1 sampler and a Revox to track and mix on. Sounds on “The Invisible Frame” were all recorded digitally on a Roland Edirol recorder. Time passes and technology moves forwards. I had a dozen or so dub plates made from these recordings, and Rainier was in control of the wind-up gramophone player we used to start the concerts with. I also had a piano. We have never been able to record this music properly in the studio, so I thought let’s just release “Backing Track” so everyone can have a go and make their own version. — Simon Fisher Turner\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soleilmoon","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50391045439819,"sku":"2184726","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/simon_fisher_turner_symphony_of_a_great_city_SOL201CD_5d1233ff_thumbnail_409.jpg?v=1726396770"},{"product_id":"nada-ized","title":"Nada-Ized","description":"\u003cp\u003eSpanning 41 years of Death In June’s existence, from songs like “Heaven Street” to “The Trigger”, \u003ci\u003eNada-Ized!\u003c\/i\u003e is a selection of tracks that spiritually revisit the group’s mid-1980’s dalliance with militant electro-dance whilst remaining very much aware of the present. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecorded and produced in separate self-isolation, Douglas P. and Miro Snejdr (Herr Synthwave Himself), have produced these New Play Tunes for New Plague Times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow re-released on vinyl with seven additional tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soleilmoon","offers":[{"title":"Blue LPx2.","offer_id":50417652040011,"sku":"2054509","price":59.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50417651712331,"sku":"2054508","price":59.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Blue LP","offer_id":50417652465995,"sku":"2054510","price":59.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50417650827595,"sku":"2004035","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/death_in_june_nada_ized_b95bab01_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726734578"},{"product_id":"clouds-of-war","title":"Clouds of War","description":"\u003cp\u003eCollaborative work by renowned musicians Yishai Sweartz (Tomorrow’s Rain) from Tel Aviv and Mona Mur from Berlin culminates in the creation of “Clouds Of War.” Inspired by the life and diary of Yishai Sweartz’s grandfather, WW2 Partisan Moshe Szniecki, this project intertwines evocative spoken word and captivating experimental electronic arrangements.

I know they’re not too interestedin it this now, but they’ve seen the artwork and pictures and obviously they know the tracks, but I don’t think they actually realise this is coming out and that strangers can buy the LP in a Record Shop or online with actual money. For years as the two of them were growing up I was always photographing and recording their lives. Over 68,000 pictures on my desktop, and hours of recordings. So tothis album. It’s the first thirteen years or so of our children’s lives made into cute and cruel songs of experimentation and, yes, chaos again. So, from the first heartbeat (not included here) to just under two years ago, I randomly and sometimes secretly recorded themsinging or talking, often encouraged of course by me. That’s what parents do. I recorded for 13 years. It’s rather wonderful to havesound documents as opposed to pictures. Luckily I have both and I’m still rediscovering forgotten sounds even now. This is a music\/sound diary (perhaps) of the frankly mad, cute, annoying, moving, innocent, loud, loving, embarrassing, noises of their lives up to now, as recorded and messed up by me, as in messed-up-and-I-don’t-care, but do I care. I try to edit with clarity where needed, but otherwise the vocals and ideas are pretty raw and unaltered for the sweeter market of pop. This is just STUFF. Wild and Alive.
