KANGDING RAY
“ Cory Arcane ( 不可解なコーリー ) “ は、想像上の？実在の？無性世代の胞子体、花を咲かせない羊歯を口に咥えるCory Arcaneという女性についての物語を持つ。「 彼女は絶えず続く危機的な状況の中で落ち着ける快適さゾーンを見つけ出し、愛、官能、そして高速インターネットアクセスを通して自分を解放する、、、彼女のヘッドフォンから流れる音楽と混ざり合った街の音は、複雑なリズムと未来的なテクスチャーを、美しく彩られてピクセル化された表面に編み込んでいくだろう。彼女は彼女自身の腐敗と格闘し、魅惑の官僚制、無限のスクロール、社会的メディア24時間ニュースチャンネル給送装置、および販売された戦略の複雑なウェブをナビゲートした。ホワイトウェイヴ、ブレークダンス、およびキャットビデオのための彼女の強烈で、継続的な妄想は、彼女を救ったかもしれないけれども、それは、しばしば彼女の正統でないダンス・ムーブメントが、衝撃的、超越でプロフェッショナルなバレエ団を統合する彼女の最初の試みである、、、彼女の解放はきっと超過の種々の形によりマークされた：キッチン器具の時折の突風だけでなく花火、大きい量のアルコールおよび物質をコントロールした消費の不適当な使用、、、最近、巨大な首都の郊外で彼女がしゃがみ、彼女のヘッドホーンの音楽と混ざった都市の音は、複雑なリズムおよび未来的なテクスチャーを、美しく色づいたpixellatedされる表面に織り上げる、、、この素晴らしいカオスと向き合い、彼女は微笑んだ、、 」ドイツRaster-Notonからのフランス人アーティストKangding RayことDavid Letellierが5thアルバムをリリース。そのベルリンベースの実験的テクノはルテリエの映画的アプローチの深いメロディーの複雑な混合物、未来的なテクスチャーを持つシネマティックなインダストリアル・テクノサウンド。

kangding ray. when we were queens
cory arcane found her comfort zone in a constant state of crisis, and her liberation through love, sensuality, and high-speed internet access.
as some might recall, she used to struggle with her own decay, navigating an intricate web of bureaucracy, endless social-media scrolling, 24-hour news channel feeds and marketed strategies of seduction.
her intense and continuous obsession for surf, breakdancing and cat videos might have saved her from a silent decline, but it would be her first attempts at integrating a professional ballet company that provided the initial spark. her unorthodox dance movements were often considered shocking, transgressive, and barely legal; and even though some recognised her genuine talent, it was clear she would never make it into this structure. this is when she started her slow drift towards the outer limits of society, in search of the way to achieve the conditions for absolute freedom.
her emancipation was surely marked by different forms of excess: the inappropriate use of fireworks, the consumption of large quantities of alcohol and controlled substances, as well as the occasional blasts of kitchen appliances.
she bypassed the gender war and became an expert in advertising sabotage. soon cory would give academic courses on the true liberation of the mind, or, in her own words, the apotheosis of senses.
lately, she could be seen squatting in the outskirts of different giant metropolises, embracing the mayhem, contemplating the crumbling of a system. the sound of the city, mixed with the music on her headphones, would weave complex rhythms and futuristic textures into a beautifully coloured, pixellated surface.
looking out onto this fabulous chaos, she smiled.
»cory arcane« is kangding ray‘s fifth album on raster-noton and will be released as CD, double vinyl LP, and digitally.
