LP version. Clear blue vinyl; includes download code. Arbitrary presents the third in the Black Box series of releases by Mads Emil Nielsen. The release, which showcases a more sample- and grid-based side of the Danish musician/composer's work, is part of a sequence of publications with music and audio originally made for theater, radio soundtracks and more. Black Box 3 is based on sound pieces produced for Sprækker (Cracks), a dance performance and installation in Denmark, 2021. The starting points for these pieces are improvisations recorded with contemporary dancers, in which Nielsen guides the listener through a corpus of synthesizer recordings, everyday sounds and radio archives. These original recordings were reworked for this LP and edited into the six tracks in early 2022. Written and produced, recorded and mixed by Mads Emil Nielsen, Copenhagen, 2021/2022. Acoustic sounds on Installation -- 2 by Victor Dybbroe. Mastered and cut by Kassian Troyer at Dubplates & Mastering, Berlin. Graphic design by Mads Emil Nielsen.
