EugeneKha is back once again at Ethereal Live for his second release with the net label. Hailing from Moscow, Russia, EugeneKha is a musician, poet, photographer, and artist of
epic proportions. EugeneKha, aka Evgenij Kharitonov, is also the author of numerous literary publications and books, and works in journalism.
For “Green Quest Live”, Evgenij performed live at White Art Studio, 15 October 2011. This album is a live companion to his studio recorded album, “Green Quest” at Earth Mantra. Here we have EugeneKha interpreting those songs in a beautiful long form sonic journey that clocks in at 44 minutes.
EugeneKha takes us in many directions on “Green Quest Live”, but maintains the cohesiveness and flow throughout the entire set. Heavy use of synthesizers from both hardware and software, field recordings, sampler, and a drum machine were used in the set. Evgenij’s instrument list includes Roland JV 1080,Kawai K1m, Alesis Micron, Korg Kaossilator Pro, Akai MPC500, Korg Legacy Collection, Toxic III, Absynth 4, Boss DR-202, Roland A-500S, Alesis Q25, Korg NanoKONTROL, and Ableton Live 7.0
Many genres and influences on “Green Quest Live” with light ambient and new age being quite dominant in influences, as space and experimental sounds lie on the periphery. The album has an airy vibe throughout which is quite refreshing with a nice balance of harmony, melody, and rhythms not always heard in ambient music. Evgenij is a unique musician and composer and we think you will be quite pleased with what he has offered up with “Green Quest Live”.

This little beauty is the latest creation from Dirty Electronics, it was developed in a very short turnaround by John Richards, myself and Jim Frize from Sonodrome for a workshop at the Athens Video Art Festival 2012. Several late nights and a considerable amount of swearing was involved in getting it all together on time but we’re all pretty chuffed with the end result.
The brand new work "Animism" by the Chinese-American ambient exotica virtuoso Forrest Fang is ready to hit the streets during the June 2012. After checking the credits on elegant eco CD wallet packaging, everything is more than clear, Forrest Fang is again unveiling all the secrets of his acoustic wizardry by utilizing…

UPDATE: Today, May 19, 2012, around 3PM, we said "goodbye" to Nadja. He'd been in declining health for a few months, and just plain worn his body out with all the loving he provided all of us. I hope to see him in my dreams and possible another body in the not-so-distant future. My life is forever changed for having known him. He taught me the meaning of unconditional love and my capacity to love has been…
Last weekend I had the honor of participating at the Mountain Skies Electro-Music Festival 2012 in Asheville, NC. It was my first time in Asheville and the first time for this particular event. Greg and Hong Waltzer and the rest of the Mountain Skies crew curated a wonderful lineup of artists who turned in some incredible performances. Hong shot and edited these video highlights (and shot the photo above) which give you a good sense of the diversity of acts and what it was like to be there.
I also want to give a shout out to Michael O’Bannon who was created visuals for my performance.

I took a lot of photos of the event including photos of the Moog factory tour and will include them in an upcoming post.

Here’s a funny story going around. Apparently there is a David Guetta “Dj tribute act”. Loudat severely hates the idea. I think we are in a free world and if someone has the balls to try this and people want to see it why not.
“Well this is new. A tribute DJ. I’ll say that again: A tribute DJ.As in: a nobody who is pretending to be a Famous Disc Jockey, advertising himself as such and actually getting booked.” Loudat
