Notes
- The music "Subliminal Man" was composed, recorded and mixed by Lars Bröndum. The recordings were made with mostly modular analogue synthesizers and audio equipment, Theremin and field recordings. The piece is in two parts. Part one (please observe that part one is posted in a separate DIVA post) and part two . Part one is centered around asymmetrical rhythmical gestures using random voltages with a Buchla synthesizer and frequency modulated sounds. Spring reverbs was used as percussive instruments and analog sequencers creates gestural patterns. The piece is interrupted by short episodic outbursts. Part two starts with crackling noises which evolve to irregular ostinato patterns. Microtonal webbs are created using a pitch ribbon and Theremin and are spun in layers by using a loop pedal. Feedback is used towards the end of the piece - filtered with low pass filters over a bed of short Buchla Music Easel sounds. The compositions are live in studio recordings and are improvised. However the improvisations has been remixed and shortened. Overdubs was also was done for the final release. The pieces are inspired by the science fiction short story "Subliminal Man" by J.G. Ballard. In the story the characters are manipulated into purchasing more and more and thus having to work more. The manipulation is done by the way of subliminal messages projected in their surroundings. Ballard’s Subliminal Man is a critique of consumerism.
