we are happy to finally present the video for the new track 'hyperbowl'.
it is taken from record of tides´ upcoming album 'playground magrathea'
which is to be released at some point in 2023 on zany music and distributed via bandcamp.
as piayda mentioned in his blog on september 30, this might be the final album for the 'purchases' series as well for record of tides.
the video had been directed by long time collaborator chris huff and produced by sven piayda studio.
the track was originally scheduled to be premiered live at makroscope during the primal scapes x record of tides mash-up gig,
instead schreiber performed alone with piayda cancelling for private reasons.

the video is out on october 6, 2023 further dates and releases may be announced soon as well.

after a longer pause in summer and some spare common recordings primal scapes mastermind michael schreiber and
sven piayda have announced to play a live set together at makroscope in mülheim an der ruhr at september 16, 2023.
while working in studio on new scapes songs the guys stared to play around with live ideas.

the live set will include known and unreleased tunes from both artists
while transforming it into real live version via real-time controllers and electric guitar.
after playing numerous jams in 2023, this will be the first live gig for record of tides as well as fro primal scapes
– and it will be a mash-up set.
both artist have already performed live together for ‘vivid euclids’
which is still available as official zany music release and live stream recording on youtube.

primal scapes x record of tides will play live for electric café at makroscope
and will be supported by further electronic music based artists.
please check the facebook event for more and up-to-date information.

update 2023-09-08: unfortunately sven piayda cancels the gig because of personal issues
so primal scapes will perform an electronic stand alone set.
schreiber and piayda agreed to keep this performance concept for a later show,
the mash-up set is still supposed to be played live.
also common work on a future primal scapes album is supposed to be taken up when possible.

all info in the nutshell:

he offered to design a cover and put it out on zany music as free live bootleg.

it is our massive pleasure to announce the release of record of tides´ long-awaited ‘pieces upon pieces’ album via zany music on june 16, 2023.
the album was already finished in 2022 and inspired by a remarkable summer 2022, see svennet journal.
‘pieces upon pieces’ is the forth album of the ‘purchases’ series,
the album is supposed to be the legit follow-up to ‘penicilina’ (2022) while using sample-based post-hiphop and idm production.
the album also features the ‘fly away song feat. prjct fear’ as it contains samples supplied by prjct fear a.k.a. dean blues.
the track was also featured on ‘boneyard elements’ (2022) by prjct fear and record of tides' 'songbook' (2022),
now the track is finally presented in a record of tides album context.

zany music calls it the best pieces of the ‘purchases’ series so far,
as it hat put some boards-of-canada-vibes into the abstract electronica.
the album will be available digitally only.

the album is promotionally escorted by a new video directed by robin moedder.
moedder and piayda struck up their collaboration last winter considering common audio visual live performances.
as there are no dates fixed recently, moedder started with a music video for the track ‘deep cruise’
featuring typical technical treatments leading to a perfectly fitting pictures for the abstract track.
we hope for future live performances to be announced.

next to the new video we also like to bring your attention back to the video for another track
from ‘pieces upon pieces’ called ‘camp finals’ as directed by christopher terhart.
the music video is the first output of a collaboration which started back in summer 2022:
terhart and piayda teamed up for terhart´s movie debut titled ‘kaivalya’, an experimental documentary about solitude.
it is announced as a non-verbal and non-narrative piece of cinema features scenes of decay,
nature and various places all over germany, focussing on broken beauty.
on terhart´s request piayda has scored the movie based upon known and previously unreleased record of tides tracks from the ‘purchases’ series.
these tracks have been remixed and remastered and will appear without beats as score of the movie.
the soundtrack is supposed to be available via bandcamp parallel to the movie´s release.

all info on christopher terhart and the project over at www.christerhart.net

terhart and piayda have already collaborated on ‘penicilina’ by record of tides.
the track ‘vorwegnahme’ was originally produced by terhart a.k.a. monkelmann,
piayda turned the track into a longer and more complex version also featuring an acoustic guitar solo.
the spoken work part written by monkelmann adapts a found text based upon conspiracy theories.
by reinterpreting and translating it into german language it is turned it into a positive prophecy.
christopher terhart is also known as visual artist mostly known for great infrared photography.
