With centuries of history, traditional instruments carry physical vibrations
shaped by human breath and touch. In contrast, electronic music generates
vibrations through inorganic principles such as electrical signals and circuits.
When the subtle tremors of traditional instruments resonate with the intricate
tones
of electronic sounds in an improvised dialogue, performers from distinct realms
expand each other’s languages, creating a new sensory experience.
The project album Ancient Moment marks the first collaboration between the
Korean contemporary music ensemble WhatWhy Art and the Seoul underground
electronic music collective vurt.. It is a record of a free journey where two
different worlds collide and merge, breaking cultural boundaries and dismantling
aesthetic hierarchies.
In Part 2 of the album, you will hear boundless performances by haegeum player
Jieun Kang with electronic musician Djilogue, and Whatwhy Art with electronic
musician Siot.
The recording was done in an improvised one-take format at STUDIO Y in Seoul,
and Giuseppe Tillieci mastering enhanced the sonic quality.
