Split

Drago Katzov/Shallower

https://innerdemonsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/split-ind076d

Three Shallower tracks feature on this split, put out by Tampa, Florida based noise label Inner Demons.

'Split' is an EP by Philippines based drone act Drago Katzov and Australian noise project Shallower. Each artist features three songs showcasing their sound, with Katzovs opening three tracks highlighting a mix of light noise and synthesizer experiments before the three Shallower tracks harken to a more noise/harsh noise wall sound. Put out on Compact Disc and via Bandcamp by Tampa, Florida based label Inner Demons.
The three Shallower tracks featured are:

'Delphis'
'Totem Pole Joe'
'Ethanol Drinker'

Sova Locus outlines the sound of the three featured tracks:
'The Shallower tracks on this split show a further compositional interest in Harsh Noise Wall and electronic noise territory, pushing previously explored sounds from the debut Shallower EP into a denser, more collaged and layered sound. The tracks 'Delphis' and 'Ethanol Drinker' present wall to wall of thickly layered yet composed noise, with slithers of samples and keyboard playing over the top to create textured sonics. The track 'Totem Pole Joe' utilizes sounds previously explored on a variety of noise compilations; incorporating beats and instrumental samples to create an almost experimental pop sound.' '

'Knights of the Sun' is the third album by noise/drone duo Arcanum AZF. This time, the duo of Sova Locus and Dajjal Wolfgang focus on elements of black, sludge and drone metal, mixed in with  previous compositional tools such as electronics, keyboards and samples. Some of the sounds on 'Knights' were created using custom built objects and household items which were sound-processed and edited.

The album continues the duos interest in experimental forms of collage and soundscapes, with emphasis this time on elements like guitar riffs, drones and the melding of sounds to create atmospheric layering and textures.

LOCUTION STREAMS Drawing Mini-Exhibition

'Locution Streams'

Drawing Mini-Exhibition

by 

Sova Locus

Locution Streams is a project that explores the relationship between art and viewer, between interpretation and perception and how language can be defined. The project was hung in the Ramp at TCOTA, featuring two large A2 pen drawings along with 20 A4 size drawings. 

The main concept behind this portion of the project is to consider how 5 symbols can be interpreted as geometric drawings. 15 geometric drawings were created in relation to the 5 symbol pages, and the two A2 geometric drawings acted as a kind of mascot for the Locution Streams project in general. 

Pictures below show the displayed drawings. 

COLLECTED SCHOOL DRAWINGS 'Drone Texture'

'Drone Texture'
Drawing/Sound Installation
by
Sova Locus

These are a few rough photos of a few of my drawings which featured as my folio for a drawing class that I did. Eventually I'll try and get some more higher quality photos, but here are some basic ones for now.

'Drone Texture' was created through exploration of a site-specific area in the art school. My site featured a lot of vents and air conditioning, meaning that there was a droning hum in the room. I utilized this sound to create these drawings, which are attempts and experiments in texturing. The drawings were accompanied by a basic sound piece, which featured layered recordings of the sites sounds.

'KALEIDOSCOPIC CRUSADES' by ARCANUM AZF

Kaleidoscopic Crusades

Arcanum AZF

https://arcanumazf.bandcamp.com/releases

Arcanum AZF is a recently created duo of me and a close friend and fantastic visual artist Dajjal Wolfgang our first release on Bandcamp is 'Kaleidoscopic Crusades', available from the link above. The release shows off the basic conceptual themes of the duo: improvised recording, the usage and abusage of electronics and FX, and an interest and exploration into themes of the esoteric, both historically and visually.

'Kaleidoscopic Crusades' was recorded in one afternoon on Wolfgang's coffee table. Later, I spent some time mixing and editing the recordings together into four distinctive tracks. My aim with mixing 'Kaleidoscopic Crusades' was to mesh the sounds of both players together in to one coherent sonic wave of frequencies, feedback and sound.
