I just found out about this and I thought some people here might be interested in it also. Alva Noto will be releasing a new album called Xerrox Vol. 1 on Raster-Noton on the 3rd of March. There's no mention of it on the Raster site but pictures and the tracklisting are on alvanoto.de. Apparently the album will be released on "CD, LP, and SD card." There's also a track from the album on his myspace page. It's very beautiful and very different from anything else I've heard from him.

Secure Digital, I would assume. It seems like a weird medium to release music on... Does anyone know if any other labels have released music in this format?

The barenaked ladies are releasing their next album on a thumb drive. But they suck, so its kind of like a step backward in some respects.

I love the layout of his myspace page. Thats kind of like how I would have mine, minus the showy music player and comments, if I actually cared enough to put the work into it.

And that music sounds truly beautifull. You can really hear how he has come along as an artist. He has taken his appreciation for tonal structures and really flushed it out with atmosphere.

You should also check out Kangding Ray's debut album "Stabil" on Raster Noton. Very nice music will be heard if you click here

I supposed you mean WTF not WTB
I don't think he is trying to be tim hecker. This sounds like a logical evolution from his previous material. I don't actually like tim hecker very much. I like the sound of this.

after seeing insen live i came to the conclusion id stay away from the whole clickety minimal kinda stuff. the only songs i really enjoyed was the encore, which i then found out was their latest ep played from start to end.
and listening to this song, i actually really enjoy it. looks like im gonna get back into this stuff again .. *sigh* : )

i love this new track. it actually gave me an extremely deep vivid dream state when i was lying down. like, an alternate frequency of reality, and all these beings innocently enjoying our cities and places and realities by themselves, in another fragmented reality. like at the end of the silent hill movie where they didnt get home, but they reached home. something like that.

it's good good..
i think the memory card is a statement of the future. that we can release music on a more stable and robust format, compared to cds which can get scratched a lot.
a memory card is more "futuristic", so i don't think it's silly really.

With music released on SD cards, having a collection spanning the whole wall really means something.

the myspace song (Haliod Xerrox Copy 111 (Iner)) is still my favourite. i dont know what it is, but its such a refreshing song for me.
its an all round great release, but i just help it but to regard it as background music..

YES! yes, this is a great album. I've got two of his other cds which I don't care for so much. I'm really not too into most minimal shit, a lone BEEP, followed by a short hiss every 15 seconds is the worst kind of electronic music. I hate that shit.
But something went very right here with Xerrox. The big tracks are brimming with feeling. They contain the sort of melody that strikes you on an emotional level, but you can't really pinpoint WHAT emotion. Hard to describe.
I'd agree with Pigster here, Haliod Xerrox Copy 111 (Iner) is the track to beat.

could you possibly select the two tracks most descriptive of it and mail them to me? Thinking of getting it, but I've already got quite a bit of stuff on order, so if it isn't a "must have right now!!!" album, I can wait.

I'm still listening to this on a daily basis. Well, nightly.
It's been the soundtrack to my dreams for the past month. I wake up and don't even realize it's playing, it becomes part of the atmosphere.

When I ride my bike into town listening to this album, passing construction sites, the highway, and crowded streets, everything becomes so seamlessly intertwined.
I get this profound sense of a "life goes on.." kind of feeling.
I'll shut up, for now..
