about

Stpocold – проект новосибирского художника Swill Klitch, который также работает под именами Indu Mezu, Instant Movie Combinations и заведует лейблом Cold Graey. Именно на этом лейбле в 2007 году вышел первый альбом проекта, значительно более жесткий по звучанию.

Цитата незаслуженно забытого исследователя культуры Белы Роуза, выбранная в качестве эпиграфа к What Was Inside, указывает на радикальную уникальность личного опыта. К музыке Swill Klitch эта уникальность имеет прямое отношение: хотя стилистические ориентиры Stopcold легко считываются (angst pop в духе продукции Galakthorrö и Beläten), трекам проекта чужды жанровые клише. Что в них есть, так это поглощающая странность, кривизна почерка, который формировался по своим особым, самодельным прописям.

По замечанию автора What Was Inside – это история о душевных трансформациях, связанных с утратой точки отсчета. В подобной ситуации переживания начинают мерцать, причиняя то боль, то радость, то одно и другое сразу. Так и в музыке знакомые элементы встречаются в незнакомых сочетаниях и как бы не узнают друг друга: свирепый нойз звучит почти иронично, а в патетической декламации сквозит абсурд. Несмотря на парадоксальность этих встреч, они не кончаются разладом: в музыке Stpocold есть странная цельность – она звучит обещанием того, что без утраты ориентиров новые нельзя обрести.

Записано Swill Klitch в Cold Graey Studio в 2009-2014. Голос: Swill Klitch, Ир. Слова: Swill Klitch, кроме: (3) 3xyc, (6) Swill Klitch, Gamz. Мастеринг: Arnold_pR . Фотографии: Полина Врублевская.

Stpocold is a project by Novosibirsk artist Swill Klitch, who also operates under monikers Indu Mezu and Instant Movie Combinations and manages Cold Graey label. First album of the project (much more brutal in sound) was released on this very label back in 2007 .

Quote by unfairly forgotten culture researcher Bela Rose serves as an epigraph to What Was Inside. It declares radical uniqueness of personal experience. This uniqueness has direct relevance to Swill Klitch’s music. Although stylistic references of Stopcold are quiet obvious (angst pop in the vein of Galakthorrö and Beläten production), music is free from genre cliches. Yet it is soaked with all absorbing strangeness, twistedness of personal handwriting aligned with its own, self-made copy-books.

As Swill Klitch points out, What Was Inside is a story of inner mental transformations provoked by the loss of reference point. In this situation emotions twinkle and flicker, causing pain, joy, both at once. So it is in music: familiar elements encounter in unfamiliar combinations, and they seem not to recognize each other. Ferocious noise sounds almost ironic, absurd appears through solemn declamation. In spite of paradoxical nature of these encounters, they do not provoke disorder. Stpocold's music has weird integrity, and this integrity is like a promise that one can never attain any reference point without losing it.

Composed and recorded by Swill Klitch in Cold Graey Studio in 2009-2014. Vocals: Swill Klitch, Ир. Lyrics: Swill Klitch, except: (3) 3xyc, (6) Swill Klitch, Gamz. Mastered by Arnold_pR. Photos by Polina Vrublevskaya.

Downloads, cassette purchase and donations are welcome as they support artists and label directly.
