A few words pi**ed into the ether that won't be seen by you, or you. A violent storm casts more than rain down upon an earth torn. Suddenly silence again.

DC Promo Tracks #1075: "Frame (Chris Coco Remix)" by Ware is part of the release "Frame" on Absent Music Buy from: https://lnk.fu.ga/ware_frame Video: https://www.youtube.com/wat

https://lnk.fu.ga/ware_frame

Ware - 'Frame' is the first single taken from their album 'Star Catalogue'.

'Frame' feels like a midnight walk amongst the bright lights of the city with the optimism of an awakened mind, it's building layers throughout its melodic journey give hope and enlightenment which ultimately smothers and overcomes it's dark under-currents.

This remix of 'Frame' comes from none other than Balearic focal-point Chris Coco. Chris dishes up a delectation, in which he moulds and amplifies the original's vibe with percussive layers, arpeggiated flourishes and unforgiving sanguinity.

Hello all!

We had a pretty mellow year at the label, and even that meant we had a whole 3 releases.. However this is considerably less than what we have planned for 2023

First up and the catalyst for the relaunch was an introspective journey-fuelled single from myself Antikue

ABST020 - Antikue - Wind Hook & Into Jomsom
https://lnk.fu.ga/antikue_windhookintojomsom
https://absentmusic.com/abst020.html

We then followed with a debut release from Willo a cascading cacophony of found sound and live experimentation.

ABST021 - Willo - 01(o)
https://found.ee/willo_01o
https://absentmusic.com/abst021.html

and to finish off the year with a bang was another debut from seasoned electronic maestros Ware a deep dive into ambient, vocal, melodic trans-atlantic synthesis.

ABST023 - Ware - Star Catalogue
https://lnk.fu.ga/ware_starcatalogue
https://absentmusic.com/abst023.html

Next year is already going to be the busiest year for the label, with a bunch of remixes from WARE, a single from The Family Germ, an album and single from new artist Monomann and a couple of compilations to celebrate the fact that Absent Music's debut release was 20 years ago next August!

We very much appreciate all those who have travelled this journey with us and those who have recently joined, but buckle up, we have only just begun.

Yours lovingly,
Antikue

Ware began as an experimental electronic duo back in the 1980s, when you had to know what you were doing. Comprising Sacha Galvagna, who went on to play with acts as diverse as Rosa Mota, Horsepower, Charles Atlas, Crown Estate, The Last King of England and Carta, and Andrew Wilson a producers’ producer, noise machine maker and DJ, who found underground acclaim for his Crossed Wires output, the band reconnected earlier this decade when they found themselves with some unexpected time on their hands.
