Human Astronomy EP →
About leaving your hometown behind Human Astronomy EP comes just as Sevish moves away to the UK midlands. “I always found my little patch of London to be a big source of inspiration. Both the estate I grew up in and the landscape of the inner city are locations which have coloured my music.” Human Astronomy features Sevish’s last compositions in London; it is a ‘good bye,...

NANA WODORI - knowsur - album at Split Notes... →
A new xenharmonic album by knowsur has just gone live. Really infectious electronic dance/house/glitchy beats and the unique sounds of microtonality. Free download of course. I focused on the 7 tone equal temperament (7-tet) scale as a means for making danceable music. This album is composed of a mode using 7-tet as a diatonic scale and 14-tet as a chromatic scale. SUNERU: Enjoyed playing...

[SPNT003] Various Artists - Crack My Pitch Up →
Some hard notes to crack IMAGINE a new musical instrument that can play any sound you like. Surely that would sound quite different from the stuff most musicians pump out routinely. But seriously: how about something REALLY new for a change, because that’s what this compilation is all about. Sounds you’ve never heard before. Call it ‘xenharmonic’ music (or if...

[SPNT002] Tony Dubshot - Omega Dub →
These 7 dubs are rhythmically in the zone of reggae, dancehall and triphop. Nothing special, but harmonically they’re a bit unusual. Technically speaking, these tunes are made in microtonal tunings like 5-tet, 7-tet and even 9-tet. This means that you can’t play along on a regular piano or guitar because the frequencies and the harmonies are in different places, they’re...

[SPNT001] Sevish - Golden Hour →
Come hear our very first release on Split Notes - from that lovable drum and bass enthusiast from the United Kingdom, Sevish. This album titled Golden Hour touches on dubstep, breakbeat, IDM and hip hop, but has a big d’n’b slant as you’d expect from Sevish. “Since last year’s LP I have changed my techniques and ideas about music… I’ve been looking...
