Mzwakhe Good vibes i mean lovely Stuffo..!

KINDUMA Deep breathe for the soul Favorite track: jjsauma - Nonspace of the mind.

Hypnotic Techno Circle No matter if he produces ambient, jungle or deep/dub techno, there is always a high experimental touch in the Mexican artist's music. In his new LP, he brings the dub techno into the label's deep sound signature, through some interesting scientific processes. Favorite track: jjsauma - A partial perspective.

about

Artists: jjsauma (Joaquin Jimenez Sauma) [México]
Format: Digital
Release Date: February 28, 2022
Cat: ST043

This album is Inspired by the Nooscope Manifest by Pasquinelli and Joler, and its view of AI as an instrument of knowledge extractivism while using an analogy with optical media. In Comfort of the Darkness, jjsauma presents a collection of tracks where he lets AI create its own interpretation of music by building dub versions of the tracks created for this project. In this case, a test of the Nooscope Manifest was applied as a filter for a multitrack recording. These tracks were conceived as glitch/techno/ambient and were given a dub treatment by an amorphous entity with human-like characteristics programmed by jjsauma using Max/MSP. Human behaviour, bias, inconsistency and failure are part of the new aesthetic created by using AI in arts and industry, showcasing uncertainty as a precondition of dialectics, as opposed to the certitude of traditional computational processes.

While AI raises a lot of questions, it produces its own vision of the world, and this album is a representation of AI’s intellect along with the human fingerprint of the original creator of these pieces. Dub production techniques allow a producer to re-envision and re-interpret music in a personal way. This album is human music re-interpreted by AI’s aesthetic properties of dub.

This album is the result of the research made by Joaquín Jiménez-Sauma presented at the Joint Conference on AI Music Creativity (KTH Royal Institute of Technology) and Conference on Computation, Communication, Aesthetics & X (University of Porto).
