Another Sunday, another episode of chill. These continue to be the hardest posts for me to pull together. Whereas my day-to-day tends to revolve around "new" tracks, Sunday Night Chill requires that I scour the internet for five tracks that I don't yet know. Fortunately, the outcome is always worth the effort. After two hours of trying tracks (most of which don't make the cut), there's nothing better than sitting back to listen to this playlist in full.

Producers Mist Glider and Aeropsia have begun on a magnificent collective journey that leaves no areas unturned. Whilst stopping time in its grasp by opening up a record label mantle called Sleepy Beach , their 20-track compilation entitled “Vicissitunes Vol 1.” is guided through the glimmers of the strange, and those dimension-jumping spirits aided by unique angler textures - restored by two hands of Warp Records styled imagination. Helped equally on from many other intelligent minded souls such as Holm Kenja, Old Arc and Shelf Nunny, the compilation of “Vicissitunes Vol 1” hopes to be [...]
This week, I wrote a little summary for each lovingly hand-picked Sunday Night Chill track, which you can find sitting under each of the songs below. It's difficult to focus SNC playlists around a particular theme or feeling, because in general the atmospheric tracks we feature all share similar characteristics: minimal electronica peppered with synths, mellow keyboards, and a slight coolness (hence the playlist name). But if you pushed me to explain what made me select each of the songs below for this week, I would have to say that they all put my mind elsewhere - [...]
Kodomo | Concept 11 Kodomo - Concept 11
Been loving this album Still Life by Kodomo. It's very light ambient electronic music (i.e. great music to work to). This song is especially good. Kodomo "Concept 163
The remix of September Sun by Lumia is a perfect introduction to Kodomo, as it will immediately showcase the emotive force that are typically present in his recordings. I personally like the seemingly conflicting electronic feel and heaviness that is established here; Kodomo is incredibly talented at what he does. While listeners may be afraid [...]
![NEW MUSIC: Kodomo – Disappearing Light [Shigeto Remix]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3826606_lg.jpg)
You might remember we had some IDM from New York's Kodomo (Christopher Child) a few months ago . He's back with a new September Sun EP . Here is a gorgeous track from the EP. Last time, he gave reference points of Boards of Canada and Orbital. And his work did have the feel of those two. This track is more strongly ambient. It starts off in such minor chords that it is almost heart-breaking. But gentle clattering drums save the day. I thought the tracks last time were good, this is an improvement. [...]
OK, so don't tell anyone, but I was supposed to see Shigeto , Star Slinger , and Shlohmo on Sunday night. But because I'm old (not really) and was super tired (very much so), I had to skip the show. I'll let you boo and hiss while I continue writing. Anyway, one of those artists made his way into my Soundcloud dashboard this morning with his remix of Kodomo's "Disappearing Light". Although I'm not familiar with Kodomo, I plan on changing that after hearing Shigeto's rework. You might need some more caffeine after listening, though. [...]
Un jour, je serais apte à faire du patin à roulettes ... Mais pour l'heure, autant parler musique, 3 artistes aujourd'hui, 2 inconnus et un connu (héhéhé) On commence avec Expo , un belge qui nous file sa 2e track, Right Here With Me , alors, ce qui m'a sauté aux oreilles, c'est une certaine similarité avec la track Animal Animal de Penguin Prison , le tout reste catchy et bien sympa. Vous pouvez même vous attendre à un EP courant 2012, donc pour l'instant on ouvre [...]
Nous sommes en Aout, je vous avais prévenu, les articles se font rare, je vous en fait un rapidos, peu de texte, beaucoup de musique (et de la bonne) ! Kodomo est un coup de coeur, le jeune américain m'a écrit pour savoir si il avait sa chance d'être publié ici, la réponse a été un oui immédiat ! Kodomo - Concept 11 Kodomo - Concept 11 - [...]

Frozen In Motion is out now. Check out the streaming track below courtesy of Kodomo . Kodomo - Drift Via Lyfstyl
Kodomo is the electronic music project of Chris Child, based in New York City. Founded in 2000 as a moniker for remixes, Kodomo evolved into a platform for Child’s original compositions. S Equals Zero by kodomo Child just released his beautiful album, Frozen in Motion which emerged from fragments of recordings made from snippets of life in New York City - conversations at a cafe, commuters swiping their subway passes, a marimba [...]
Waar we met Inofaith 's nieuwe release een herfstig tintje in de zomer vinden, doet Kodomo de vakantie verdwijnen met soundscapes rond het dagelijkse werkleven. Kodomo, het alter ego van Chris Child, levert met zijn tweede release Frozen in Motion een knap staaltje werk af. Op Frozen in Motion vind je een assortiment aan heerlijk zwevende downtempo, groovende melodieën en bombastische tracks omlijst met strijkers. Voor deze release sampelde Chris Child mensen op weg naar hun werk, geroezemoes in de metro, voorbijrijdende treinen, en noem het maar op. Deze geluiden vormden [...]
Comparisons are invidious things. They help as reference points but can then bury under the weight of expectations. Komodo (Christopher Child) offers Boards of Canada, Plaid and Orbital in relation to his work. For me, that's a huge weight to put upon your work. But the comparisons aren't inaccurate. His music has some of the IDM structures of Plaid, the offbeat charm of Boards of Canada and the synth sensibility of early Orbital. Here are two tracks from his new album Frozen In Motion . The title track is the more upbeat number, with some wonky bass [...]
![[Dubstep] Kodomo – Decoder (WhiteNoise Remix)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3443334_lg.jpg)
Kodomo' s latest single Decoder has had a really good dubstep makeover. Taken from Kodomo's album “Frozen In Motion” - the delayed sweeping beats just get shoved to the side for a moment as 22-year-old Emanuel Bender, aka WhiteNoise, introduces himself into the mix. After only producing for 2 years, the dutch based producer has created an almost experimental dubstep sound as he incorporated a lot of the original space echoes sounds and offset them against his dirty synths! Decoder isn't the squeeling heavy bass drop that a lot of dubstep moshers crave - yet slam [...]
Click image to download full album Sounds like: Boards of Canada, Aphex Twin, Brian Eno "Kodomo - Concept 16" What's so good? I've always been impressed with how well Pandora can pick songs that I like. It's hard for me to imagine that they have teams of people listening to songs and writing down traits and characteristics of each one. I'm so glad they took all the time to do that though, because I keep getting [...]
Since I started on my new work/life endeavor, I have been really getting into some of the older "progressive/chill" electronic music that was all the rage in the early...
Tu l'as remarqué, on est en mars, et toujours pas de playlist, mais que se passe-t-il? Genre. Bah j'ai pas la réponse, j'ai rien trouvé ce mois ci. Soit je n'écoute plus assez de musique, soit il n'y a rien en ce moment. Rien de bien, hein! Mon disque dur crie au secours... Donc faute de playliste perso, je demande à un gentil garçon de me suppléer pour le coup. Et ce coup ci c'est mixé, il y a la mixtape de dispo en package cadeau. Collector, il joue même du Stereoheroes. [...]
