Alex Lightspeed - Art of Violence

On Friday, November 25, 2022, Sapienza University of Rome will celebrate the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women with several initiatives International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women, Sapienza celebrates the female universe through art, theatre and storytelling. The programme includes the unveiling of five murals dedicated to Virginia Woolf, Elsa Morante, Wisława Szymborska, Ingeborg Bachmann, and Toni Morrison, created by young contemporary artists using paints that release oxygen into the air. The paint used, a patent from the Italian company Airlite, actually produces oxygen: activated by light, it reduces pollutants in the air, just as literature, even when born out of pain, makes the reader's soul and body breathe.

Remembrance
Remembrance · Thomas Barrandon

Thomas Barrandon is a French film composer and instrumental electronica artist, by the looks of it – you cannot find too much online info about the artist and his Spofity profile is not very helpful either. His new album “Remembrance” just came out, on February 21st, 2025, via Lyon-based indie label La Ruche Le Label, and the title track, recommended for me by the Spotify algorithm, made such a huge impact on me that it would be a crime not to toot the horn for this fine selection of music. As the album’s Bandcamp page rather poetically puts it, these songs “capture the essence of our childhood memories – those suspended fragments of time where innocence blends with discovery.” So, in essence, the music is very cinematic and somewhat minimal, yet haunting in that electronic, spine-chilling BOARDS OF CANADA fashion. Thus, I reckon this stuff will be right down your alley if you’re into instrumental soundscapes crafted with a desire to perpetuate the wistful, visual aesthetic of vintage films from the 1970s and 1980s.

For Simonas, the essence of his musical philosophy resides in the profound simplicity of "love." He crafts music reflective of the present moment, an ever-evolving expression of self. His artistic compass navigates through the realms of change, experimentation, and evolution, aiming to connect profoundly with each listener. Yet, behind this vision lay formidable challenges—releasing music, grappling with solitary endeavors, confronting the daunting imposter syndrome, among others. Each obstacle, a marker of the individual struggles on this demanding path, simultaneously contributed to his growth and development as an artist. The journey has been tough, often entailing difficult decisions and solitary battles, yet as Simonas reflects, the growth has been profound. Years of unwavering dedication have led to this moment, where the fruits of his labor finally begin to reveal their sweetness.

Simonas finds vibrant resonance in collaborative efforts, where the fusion of ideas shapes an artistic synergy that surpasses individual visions. Recounting collaborations, he emphasizes the transformative nature of collective creativity, yielding results that exceed the sum of their parts. "The result of collective ideas is always something neither I nor the person I'm collaborating with could make on our own. It's also exciting to work with people you like working with," Simonas highlights, underlining the essence of shared innovation.
Live performances encapsulate Simonas' artistic journey, bringing his musical narrative to life before an audience. Reflecting on these moments, he fondly recalls the powerful emotional connection when sharing his compositions live. "The smiles. The moment. It's a surreal delight," he reminisces, highlighting the emotional depth and driving force behind his passion for presenting his own music. Performing his creations live continues to be an ethereal journey, inspiring and propelling him forward in his artistic exploration.

Stevenson is particularly known for creating drum and bass, liquid drum & bass, glitch hop, house and dubstep tracks. However, he is keen to experiment with many musical genres, stating that "there are tonnes of intricacies to each and every genre."

Fox Stevenson - Exile Is A Habit (Official Audio)

With a knack for writing the soundtrack to your next adventure, Stanley Stevenson – Byrne, better known as Fox Stevenson, sits somewhere between club – centric music producer and heartfelt singer – songwriter. Working outside the constraints of genre, he uses influences beyond dance music often tapping into his pop – punk upbringing. The results are songs that bridge different styles of music while always embodying the signature Fox sound – infectious, adventurous, and always full of charisma. And when this creative force comes together with Pat Lundy (Modestep) and Bruce Charles (Bustre/Konkai), the Fox Stevenson Live band is like nothing you have heard before.

Fox Stevenson - Exile Is A Habit (Official Audio)
Stevenson's interest in electronic music production began in the early 2000s, when he made his first release on the website Newgrounds. He was 15–16 years old when he created his first vocal track. He later rose to prominence through the YouTube-based music community and nowadays an influential drum and bass label Liquicity, where "Cloudhead", one of his earliest tracks as Stan SB, was featured.

Alpha Omega · Rufige Kru · Goldie · Submotive Alpha Omega

Clifford Joseph Price MBE (born 19 September 1965), better known as Goldie, is an English music producer, DJ, graffiti artist and actor. Initially gaining exposure for his work as a graffiti artist, Goldie became well known for his pioneering role as a musician in the 1990s UK jungle, drum and bass and breakbeat hardcore scenes. He released a variety of singles under the pseudonym Rufige Kru and co-founded the label Metalheadz. He later released several albums under his own name, including the 1995 album Timeless, which entered the UK charts at number 7. In the early 1990s, Price had a relationship with drum and bass artist Kemistry, who died in a car accident in 1999. He was romantically involved with Icelandic singer Björk in 1996. Björk's brief relationships with Goldie and musician Tricky, both Black men, upset deranged fan Ricardo Lopez who mailed an explosive device to Björk before killing himself in his Florida home. The acid bomb failed to reach Björk because Lopez's body, and his plans, were discovered before the package was delivered. The device was defused by Scotland Yard.


On 7 September 2010, Price's 23-year-old son Jamie Price was sentenced to life imprisonment, with a minimum sentence of 21 years, for murder. He was convicted of stabbing a rival gang member to death in Wolverhampton town centre on 24 August 2008.

In 2017, Price appeared to reveal the first name of pseudonymous graffiti artist Banksy as "Rob" on Scroobius Pip's weekly Distraction Pieces Podcast (Episode No. 156). When discussing the rise of commercialism in street art, Price said, "Give me a bubble letter and put it on a T-shirt and write Banksy on it and we're sorted. We can sell it now... No disrespect to Rob, I think he is a brilliant artist. I think he has flipped the world of art over."

I began seriously writing/producing music at age 26 after moving from Johannesburg to NYC. I was inspired by an eclectic array of artists and sounds from Punk to Dub, Afrobeat to Shoegaze, Hiphop to Zappa and then some. My first attempts at putting together a demo tape ended up sounding like groovy psychedelic dance pop with vocals. (Yes, my own :-)) But then a strange thing happened, I ended up going to the Sound Factory nightclub, ingesting a hit of ecstasy and within a short matter of time I was making house & techno. :-) I have always been drawn to rhythm and harmony. Was always the kid banging out the rhythm to the top 40 at the Sunday lunch table with a knife and fork.

I’m still learning. I think I will always be learning. The search for my voice continues. I don’t believe I have recorded my signature album yet. Originality is becoming an increasingly difficult feat in music. Some find it effortlessly, others spend a lifetime searching. Doing is the key, eh? No evolution without assimilating or practicing. I’m fortunate enough to work from my home studio. Every morning I wake up around 6am, have a coffee, get dressed and go down to the basement that houses my studio and music collection. My day job is designing sounds and making samplepacks. I usually dive right into that. To mix things up a little I usually work on my own stuff inbetween all that. Sometimes record a fresh hardware jam, other times edit and arrange any of the huge number of unfinished tracks on my desktop at any given time. I go into my studio everyday. I live for it. If there’s nothing going on around the house or any family obligation I will disappear into the basement for hours. Music is my life.

Honestly, for me the most important aspect is motivation / passion. If one’s head isn’t ready to make a disciplined attempt at running with the creative process then you might as well not waste the time. Desire and love are the key. Of course what would life be without distractions or time constraints. Since I have a wife and 2 kids I am always aware of time and that occasionally is super frustrating. Many many ideas of mine have not been fleshed out properly as I have had to rush to finish something up. Sometimes a quick way to get into the music creation zone is smoking a doobie. Doesn’t always work but can be fun.
