English translation
Lona Records is a kind independent Hong Kong seal to the passages of artists of
alternative and experimental music. Its careful catalogue consists of a list of
composers and independent musicians coming from everywhere, specially Asia and
Europe. Its particularitity is based on sending a limited edition of 50
capricious CDR of 3¡¨ (format minicd single) and DVDR of 3¡¨ of each one of the
artists.
6 CDR of 3¡¨ show the potential of the Lona's catalogue:
Splinter versus Stalin
www.myspace.com/splintervsstalin
Italian. Experimental. It manipulates prerecorded and mixed and remixed voices
with the roughest noise. From squeaks to routes of the trains soundtrack. It
samples and it creates loops entering a confusion spiral. 50 copies, limited
edition.
Kim_Nasung
www.myspace.com/kimnasung
Our already friend Matt, de Kim Nasung, creates rates based on loops of samplers
muestreados of different types from noises. Of his exploration and research
arise sounds that certainly seem real instruments. Poland.
"O" / Moon
www.myspace.com/theelectricmoon
Arlès, France. Closest to ambient but also it blankets of the controlled noise,
it creates more musical landscapes using among others sintes and some theremin,
a classic Fender Bass Jazz.
Alok
www.myspace.com/alokhk
To the purest Eastern style, that is to say, without making much noise, this
Hong Kong artist invites to us from the cold night to save some lost soul with
his tracks. Kind to create tension situations (something is going to happen) he
says that its style is Psychedelic, Experimental and Shoegaze. I do not imagine
him watching himself on the feet without watching the screen of his notebook. In
this case he presents/displays a tribute to us to Schubert. Very ambient also.
Ronez
www.myspace.com/ronezzz
Zhou Pei aka. Ronez, China Can be made music with a detector of metals and a
sensor of vibration? Yes. Its music is based on the mixture of all these strange
noises coming from pedals, oscillating, plates of discs, electronic circuits,
toys, etc. etc.
The Painful Leg Injuries
www.myspace.com/thepainfulleginjuries
The neoyorkian marriage Bill Byrne (homemade computer, voices and instruments)
and Suzanne Byrne (violoncelo) perhaps is the most charismatic pair of this
catalogue of Canvas. Their work seems an experiment in accumulating bases of
homemade instruments creating an intense pattern in the background so that
Suzanne's violoncelo can let take by such chaos and diversity.
