2021-11-11 vivid euclids to be streamed live on youtube from primal studios

on friday, december 3, 2021 at 8 pm michael schreiber and sven piayda will add the next chapter to their collaborative euclid series. ‘vivid euclids’ will be a live performance streamed via youtube from primals studios. the set will feature live versions of tracks from the euclid series as well as older and unreleased tracks.

on january 1, 2021 primal scapes and record of tides released their collaborative album ‘revenant euclids’ without any announcement in advance via zany music and distributed via bandcamp. the album features ten tracks mostly based upon randomized euclidian pattern. the collaborative album was produced in november and december 2020. following their highly appreciated collaborative album, primal scapes x record of tides released the appendix ep ‘sweven euclids’ on march 1, 2021 using similar production methods without creating any beats within their ambient pieces. the collaborative ep was produced in january and february 2021.

michael schreiber explains the approach and working process:
to perform electronic music live always has a limiting factor - which is only two hands and two feet per musician. due to that these performances sometimes feel lame (although they sound nice) when there is too many playback material.
the approach we choose for the next live stream is different from that and could be called it-based. think of an audio-workstation as a giant modular system with tons of modules like clocks, logical units. these modules are arranged into independent sequencers and can be compared to little programs running and doing music. instead of triggering keys or buttons which directly trigger a sound we will perform ‘them’ and change the ‘programs’ doing that for us. this might be a little abstract way of making music - as there is no creativity inside the machine - and pressing a key or button to trigger a certain note or sound in that moment is different from saying the program that the chance for that event to happen increases. nevertheless it is fun - an interesting and highly efficient way of making music.

record of tides´s ‘battery ep’ was released on september 3 and differs a lot from previous recordings as it abandons post hip hop to focus on drill’n’bass influenced idm. the ep also features the track ‘concrete walls of gruga’ which is already well-known as remix by we deserve this. now zany music drops a collection of remixes by prominent artists exploring the possibilities of the track while expanding it into numerous genres.

‘concrete walls of gruga’ has been reworked by kratzwerk, we deserve this, konvlikt, wesenberg, primal scapes and record of tides.

the origin of this production traces back to an anticipated collaboration of kratzwerk and record of tides. guido richter a.k.a. kratzwerk asked for stems of the track and a little later further artists joined the project while using the same stems to adapt the track into their style. fun fact: sven piayda plays guitar on the primal scapes remix on behalf of michael schreiber. it was recorded during (yet unfinished) sessions for a new primal scapes album. the track also features chris huff on bass.

2021-10-15 the flamma piayda complex returns digitally october 31
this is a headline triggering excitement. ex-destination: nowhere and the suspenderettes singer sebastian flamma and sven piayda formed their project in 2008 and released their pop metal debut album ‘the evidence’ on october 31, 2009. the guys did never officially split up but did not manage to produce a follow up album. nevertheless there have been preproduction for live shows, an attempt to do a cover version of the knife´s ‘heartbeats’ (which was never finished) and numerous remixes around 2012 which appeared on youtube only.

now their album will return digitally exactly 12 years later on october 31, 2021 on zany music. it will be distributed via bandcamp availabe in numerous digitals formats. the compact disc version may also be available again.
unfortunately we have to announce that flamma and piayda are not working on new material, a follow up album remains unlikely. however, sebastian flamma has been working on the old material and we hope to present an ep with remixes and remasters soon. nothing is save yet.

update 2021-10-26: zany music will celebrate the digital reissue of ‘the evidence’ with a little party on saturday, october 30 in essen. sebastian flamma and sven piayda are expected to join, but will definitely not perform. if you are interested in a compact disc copy, an autograph or meet & greet you can tell us via email, so we can see what we can do for you.

record of tides´s ‘battery ep’ was released on september 3 and differs a lot from previous recordings as it abandons post hip hop to focus on drill’n’bass influenced idm. the ep also features the track ‘concrete walls of gruga’ which is already well-known as remix by we deserve this. now zany music drops a collection of remixes by prominent artists exploring the possibilities of the track while expanding it into numerous genres.

‘concrete walls of gruga’ has been reworked by kratzwerk, we deserve this, konvlikt, wesenberg, primal scapes and record of tides.

the origin of this production traces back to an anticipated collaboration of kratzwerk and record of tides. guido richter a.k.a. kratzwerk asked for stems of the track and a little later further artists joined the project while using the same stems to adapt the track into their style. fun fact: sven piayda plays guitar on the primal scapes remix on behalf of michael schreiber. it was recorded during (yet unfinished) sessions for a new primal scapes album. the track also features chris huff on bass.

on august 12 record of tides performed live at consol gelsenkirchen. the gig documents sven piayda´s electronica project very well by mixing up classic idm tracks with post hip-hop productions, well-known and unreleased tracks. fortunately the performance had been documented by fellowship musician michael schreiber, so the audio recording is now available as live bootleg from archive.org.
additionally the video of the full performance can be streamed and downloaded from /CAMP now. if do not have access to the /CAMP and it´s exclusive content, you can learn about the conditions and sign up here.

record of tides´s ‘battery ep’ was released on september 3 and differs a lot from previous recordings as it abandons post hip hop to focus on drill’n’bass influenced idm. the ep also features the track ‘concrete walls of gruga’ which is already well-known as remix by we deserve this. now zany music drops a collection of remixes by prominent artists exploring the possibilities of the track while expanding it into numerous genres.

‘concrete walls of gruga’ has been reworked by kratzwerk, we deserve this, konvlikt, wesenberg, primal scapes and record of tides.

the origin of this production traces back to an anticipated collaboration of kratzwerk and record of tides. guido richter a.k.a. kratzwerk asked for stems of the track and a little later further artists joined the project while using the same stems to adapt the track into their style. fun fact: sven piayda plays guitar on the primal scapes remix on behalf of michael schreiber. it was recorded during (yet unfinished) sessions for a new primal scapes album. the track also features chris huff on bass.

update 2021-09-23: michael schreiber comes up with a very special remix, tells the story of his remix on his site, here it is adapted and translated fro svennet:
I think it is exciting when several musicians take on the same track, and in the end you can hear different colours. I was also allowed to contribute a remix, and it has a funny twist: the first action is always to listen to the track several times, paying close attention to spontaneous ideas or lines that occur to me. this either happens very quickly, or you should rather leave it alone. it is often the case that the spontaneous ideas arise very close to the usual tricks/style elements that everyone has worked out for themselves - I like to call this the handwriting. what I like to do is to mix acoustic and electronic drum elements and to add a thin line to existing harmonies and lines. since sven (record of tides) and I are working on my new album at the same time, it has become almost a reflex not to lay it on too thick and still leave room for a guitar. at some point what had to happen happened: something is missing, of course guitar and bass. the bottom line is that sven should cover himself in my remix, a thought I stumbled over only briefly. at the next recording session for my new album, we wrote it down with relatively little persuasion, chris and sven played bass and guitar and that's how my remix came about.

2021-08-26 new record of tides 'battery ep' out on bandcamp friday, sep 3


even if record of tides´ latest release ‘the biggerst trick ep’ came out on july 2, zany music has already announced a new ep.
the new ‘battery ep’ differs a lot from previous recordings as it abandons post hip hop to focus on drill’n’bass influenced idm. it features five tracks linked by a continuous ambience.
the ep also features the track ‘concrete walls of gruga’ which is already well-known as remix by we deserve this. further remixes of this track are possible.

record of tides ‘battery ep’ is out on zany music september 3 and distributed by bandcamp.

you can download 'battery ep' directly from here.

recordoftides.com

purchasing music on a bandcamp friday offers full payment for the artists without distribution share. the ep will be available as name your price download in different formats.


we deserve this (a.k.a. jan platek) already released a remix of the record of tides track 'concrete walls of gruga'. this might be a hint for even more remixes to come. for the meantime enjoy 'concrete walls of gruga (we deserve this remix)'.
don´t forget to ckeck out we deserve this on bandcamp.


still promoting the ‘purchases’ releases bundle zany music has uploaded the live performance of the track ‘dismissed’ which appears live a little bit shorted but even more twisted. please enjoy, more live video snippets might be up soon.




on august 12 record of tides performed an open air audio visual live set at consol in gelsenkirchen supported by fellow live electronic artists lemon & pilgrim. even as the stage and light situation was not suitable for video projection sven piayda managed to show a visual presentation via screen. the night was curated by visual artist roman pilgrim and is part of the summer stage festival. fortunately fellowship artist michael schreiber took care of documenting the event, so we are happy to hand over some audio and video snippets of this great set to you. a live bootleg delivering the full audio recording of this gig is likely but not scheduled yet.

record of tides is not scheduled for further live events recently (nothing is likely for 2021) but is expected to return to gelsenkirchen for the szeniale festival on august 20, 2022.

recordoftides.com has been uploading incoming pictures of the performance.


the show ended with a long, alternative and live improvised version of ‘beats over rags’ followed by (a police sirens passing by and) the crowd cheering. the track is now available (probably for limited time as single track) and will be added to the ‘gimmicks ep’ as bonus track. a live bootleg delivering the full audio recording of this gig is not scheduled yet but will be available via recordoftides.com.
(the track has vanished as single track from bandcamp and is now available as unlisted bonus track of the 'gimmicks ep'. click the picture above to get there.)


‘the singles 1999–2009’ was released by zany music on july 23 and distributed via bandcamp and is available in different formats. by picking four songs from each album (and a single non-album track release) a great compilation album of over two hours length is available. this offers the opportunity to bring back the best tracks, to do remasters and/or remixes if necessary. the album will not be available for free but there will be giveaway opportunities. please note: the compilation will be free for fans who already own a physical sven release, please contact us for free downloads.

‘the singles 1999–2009’ is available july 23, 2021, access bandcamp and get all info via the microsite. out now!

last thursday, august 12, record of tides performed an open air audio visual live set at consol in gelsenkirchen supported by fellow live electronic artists lemon & pilgrim. even as the stage and light situation was not suitable for video projection sven piayda managed to show a visual presentation via screen. the night was curated by visual artist roman pilgrim and is part of the summer stage festival. fortunately fellowship artist michael schreiber took care of documenting the event, so we are happy to hand over some audio and video snippets of this great set to you. a live bootleg delivering the full audio recording of this gig is likely but not scheduled yet.

record of tides is not scheduled for further live events recently (nothing is likely for 2021) but is expected to return to gelsenkirchen for the szeniale festival on august 20, 2022.

the show ended with a long, alternative and live improvised version of ‘beats over rags’ followed by (a police sirens passing by and) the crowd cheering. the track is now available (probably for limited time as single track) and will be added to the ‘gimmicks ep’ as bonus track. a live bootleg delivering the full audio recording of this gig is not scheduled yet but will be available via recordoftides.com.

michael schreiber reported on the official primal scapes site that he is recording with sven piayda again:
covid and the long winter slowed us down, but now sven piayda (record of tides) and me are finally back in the studio working on new tracks almost a year after recording ‘entertain’. there is no release date or title yet, true to the motto: ‘it's finished when it's good’. I don't have to mention that it's a great pleasure to work together again after all this time and I'm curious to see which musical regions and genres it will take us to this time.
we hope to present new sounds soon!

2021-08-02 record of tides live at consol gelsenkirchen, august 12, 2021
record of tides retuns to perform live at consol, gelsenkirchen. after the postponement of the 2021 szeniale festival caused by the on-going covid pandemic we did not expect to announce live dates for this summer. on august 12 record of tides will perform an live set at consol in gelsenkirchen supported by lemon & pilgrim.

(even if both sets have been announced as live sets it is not sure if a projection is technically possible at this venue.) the night is curated by artist roman pilgrim and is part of the summer stage festival.

update 2021-08-10: as the stage and light situation is not suitable for video projection we expect a visual projection via screen. sven piayda and the studio have been working very hard on this solution, we hope you enjoy!

all info and links in the nutshell over at the live section.


please note: entry to the event area is only possible with a current negative test or proof of full vaccination or being recovered. without proof it will not be possible to visit the summer stage at consol.

have a look at the facebook event.
have a look at the program flyer.

tickets are be free but will be obligatory for your visit,

2021-07-15 zany music announces ‘the singles 1999–2009’ and ‘rocktrospective’
as you may have read in the journal sven piayda had been contacted by a fan of his early solo albums asking for digital version as the compact disc do not play (properly) anymore. after delivering new discs with the original albums options for digital releases have been discussed.

the six solo albums are not going to be re-released digitally as the albums are bound to their time, partly analogue artwork production methods, their medium (concerning length and hidden tracks) and their commitments with participating musicians. by picking four songs from each album (and a single non-album track release) a great compilation album of over two hours length will be available. this offers the opportunity to bring back the best tracks, to do remasters and/or remixes if necessary.

fun fact: while doing follow-ups to the debut album ‘portrait’ piayda developed the idea to have the album number in the title while the cover was supposed to be based on a (self-)portrait in an altering colour. in the middle of the 00´s piayda announced that he was planning to do seven solo albums. as ‘portrait’ is black and white, the following albums ‘diptych’, ‘trinity’ and ‘euphoria’ form primary colours while secondary colours are represented by ‘pentagroove’ and ‘the senary process’. the upcoming compilation album will therefor have an orange cover while the word ‘singles’ is formed by seven letters. this release might be seen as the final album. in tradition of (usually profit-driven re-release compilations) the artwork uses a cover based upon a photograph taken while working on the artwork for the final album.

‘the singles 1999–2009’ is released by zany music on july 23 and distributed via bandcamp and will be available in different formats. the album will not be available for free but there will be giveaway opportunities. please note: the compilation will be free for fans who already own a physical sven release, please contact us for free downloads.

‘the singles 1999–2009’ is available july 23, 2021, access bandcamp and get all info via the microsite. out now!

svenpiayda.com/thesingles
zanymusic.bandcamp.com

the tracklist reads as following:

01. consolation (2021 edit)
02. down
03. dust ride
04. had your time
05. missing (feat. targia)
06. maria, I´m losing time
07. wild is the wind
08. actually
09. holy anger
10. scandinavian
11. joining you
12. a better future
13. go through
14. closer
15. drop the pilot
16. inside you
17. mine
18. take me home
19. the ground (2021 remix)
20. one love
21. she´s fragile (2004 remix)
22. a day at the sea (2005 remix)
23. any day
24. beam
25. kind

all songs appear as album versions except as listed
tracks 1, 2, 4, 17 - 25 remastered, tracks 5 - 8 renormalized


next to ‘the singles 1999–2009’ zany music is working on re-releasing further retrospective rock albums or ‘rocktrospective’. sebastian flamma, singer, songwriter and producer of the flamma piayda complex has approved to bring back ‘the evidence’, the group's only album from 2009, in digital formats.
recently sebastian flamma is working on the old material, we hope for tracks beyond the re-release of the original album.


penrose delta´s ‘space of entire retreat’ was a project full of rock songs and weird electronic experiments. the album was released 2012 on digital kunstrasen, which closed in 2014. the album was only available for two years only as mp3. zany music is recently working on a redux version featuring a reworked cover and tracks.


apart from ‘the singles 1999–2009’ there are still songs that are worth to be brought back, the label confirmed to take good care of the catalogue. the digital re-releases of sven, penrose delta and the flamma piayda complex will be out successively on zany music and distributed via bandcamp at different prices.


sven piayda quit making rock music as ‘sven’ in 2009 and has not plans to do so again. nevertheless he retuned with (band) projects like the flamma piayda complex, penrose delta or primal scapes for guitar driven songs. we hope that the re-release might be a hint for new stuff.




for the meantine and while waiting for the digital re-release we would like to draw your attention on the recent release of piayda´s site projects: primal scapes´ ‘white twin ep’ perfectly merges synth pop and rock to a compact statement. (the ‘entertain’ album is also still available, physical and digitally). enjoy!

2021-07-10 piayda featured at halle für kunst show and zoom talk
we are delighted to announce that halle für kunst, steiermark (austria) will show sven piayda´s iconic video ‘die entdeckung europas’. the piece will be - next to further works - on display in the museum´s atrium via screen for visitors and published in the museum´s online journal on their webpage. it is part oft he group show ‘eurotopia: what is your europe?’ contrasting the ‘europe: ancient future’ art show.

on july 15 at 6 pm there will be a zoom talk between the halle für kunst steiermark and the curators of the show, with all participating artists. sven piayda has announced participation, more information to be found over at halle-fuer-kunst.at and halle-fuer-kunst.at/programm/2021-07-15-eurotopia-was-ist-dein-europa.

up to july 15 all pieces will be part of the exhibition at halle für kunst and will be made accessible online.

you can already have a look at all works for ‘eurotopia: what is your europe?’ by clicking nextmuseum.io which already features stills of ‘die entdeckung europas’.

the press text escorting the piece states as following: ‘die endeckung europas' takes a look at jupiter's moon europa from the perspective of a space probe orbiting it. the distant namesake becomes a parable: we look from the outside at something very large and recognise its interaction with others who help determine the common balance. at the same time, the search for a new world is always the search for a better world. can europe do justice to this?

in consequence of falling incidences we hope to announce further art shows featuring work by sven piayda soon.

update 2021-06-19: and this is the digital version, probably the bestseller of the diverse meda offered. spoiler alert, this might not be the final release of the 'purchases' series. cross your fingers and watch out.

update 2021-06-05: friend and fan rebecca gottschick got a rare copy of the ‘purchases’ vinyl ep and has presented it on her instagram channel. it is great to see it is bringing the joy it is supposed to.


update 2021-06-11: and this is what this beauty looks like spinning on the player. cilck the image to see the b-side on the turntable.


update 2021-06-28: our dear friend thierry massard has delivered a review on ‘purchases’ via nocoVision calling it a masterpiece:

… the less "wise" musicologists, and producers of sounds with a wavering memory, nourished by the spoils of their elders, must now worry about their durability - melodic lines supported or skilfully crushed, rhythmics in precarious balance, ‘purchases’ has the advantage of not immediately revealing all its luxuriant richness. […] satisfying themselves with delight, with the happiness of a story once again in progress - masterpiece!

a big thank you to thierry, once again!
have a look on the full review over here or over at nocovision.blogspot.com




update 2021-07-02: the ‘purchases’ album was supposed to be the final release of the ‘purchases’ series, now zany music adds another ep to the series: ‘the biggest trick ep’ features the track with the same name in an edited version which was originally produced for the vinyl ep next to the edit version of ‘slides’ which was originally released on the ‘purchases’ vinyl ep. the new release also features tracks which have been produced in spring and already during the release period of the series. once again michael schreiber has mastered all tracks of the ep which has not been scheduled for release originally and is now added to the bundle.

update 2021-06-05: the szeniale festival 2021 was originally scheduled for june 19 featuring record of tides with a new audio visual live show featuring josie kalies and 1satzleiter. after developing an alternating way of presenting the events because of the pandemic the staff has decided to postpone the festival to 2022. nevertheless, june 19 is now scheduled as ‘come together’ at ‘trinkhalle am flötz (gelsenkirchen)’ and opportunity to meet and greet as well as to talk about future projects and updates for the szeniale 2022. participants need to register, in case of interest to participate, please email us.

there have been rumours that zany music planned to release a bootleg of record of tides live performance at szeniale 2019. there is a reconstructed recording but no scheduled release. it may be put out one day, but for now you have to be patient.

update 2021-06-19: june 19, 2021. today was supposed to be the day for the second szeniale festival to take place in gelsenkirchen. just like 2019 record of tides was scheduled to play an audio visual set featuring special guests this time. because of the difficulties in organizing this big event in the shadow of the pandemic, the festival is obviously not taking place today. the event and its exhibitions and performances are postponed to summer 2022. you may like to have a look at the video summing up the 2019 performance. a live recording of this show is not available but you will find live bootlegs of other shows over at www.reccordoftides.com.




the kunstverein kunst.werden scheduled to open the new solo show by sven piayda called ‘needle in the multiverse’ in november 2020. caused by the second lockdown the show was postponed only three weeks before scheduled opening. still there are no new plans announced on how or when to open the show.

the kunstverein kunst.werden scheduled to open the new solo show by sven piayda called ‘needle in the multiverse’ in november 2020. caused by the second lockdown the show was postponed only three weeks before scheduled opening. still there are no new plans announced on how or when to open the show.


more or less exactly ten years after the release of AESTATE´s last album ‘carbonized’ and about 14 years after the debut album zany music releases digital reissues of the three iconic albums. each bundle contains the original album tracks in maximum sound quality completed by bonus material expanding the running time of each album to about 90 minutes. additionally the reissues feature processed or reworked cover artworks reflecting the history of the releases.
zany music originally released all albums primarily on compact disc while putting the maximum quantity on the disc. the albums were therefore limited and optimized for their medium. the label also put out the albums as digital download but delivering only medium quality mp3s because of web space issues. now the albums are available via bandcamp, added to the record of tides discography and no longer limited in length.

let´s have a closer look to the digital reissues:

AESTATE (debut album, 2007)
contains the original album plus bonus track ‘plad 4040’. the cover features a darker colour at the lower edge of the font.

recordoftides.bandcamp.com/album/aestate

SUPERFLAT (2008)
contains the original album plus an approximately 22 minute excerpt of AESTATE´s live set as performed at ruhr in love open air techno festival in oberhausen in 2008 as line out recording as bonus track. the album originally featured two cover versions for the compact disc version, the digital version also contained an alternate cover. the reissue cover merges these three versions creating a more colourful appearance.

recordoftides.bandcamp.com/album/superflat

CARBONIZED (2011)
contains the original album plus bonus tracks ‘tync shaft’ (originally released on the 5th anniversary label sampler by digital kunstrasen in 2010) and ‘renites’ (originally released on the 10th anniversary audio visual label sampler by crazy language in 2016).
the original cover featured sven piayda´s ‘herbarium show’ tableau (2010) but as the group has never been happy with this choice, the reissue cover shows renderings done during the same production period using the same input material delivering different abstract structures while keeping the original colours.

all covers are supposed to be optimized for downscaled presentation as well for print. you may like to read the press release and collected reviews:

2021-05-14 art shows and record of tides live gigs remain unlikely
even in this spring of falling incidences and upcoming negotiations on events we have to tell you that participation remains unlikely. the studio has been productive during the last months but is facing unreliable show schedules. many pieces are in stock waiting to be on exhibition while it is not sure if they will ever be on exhibition. proceeding productions does not make sense recently.

also plans to return to stage with record of tides have been interfered again and again. there have been plans to play at szeniale in summer 2021 featuring new visuals as well as guest performances by 1satzleiter and contemporary dancer josie kalies. as everything is insecure we have to announce that there will no performance as originally drafted. there have also been plans to do a streamed live show but nothing has been fixed. there may be no live shows for record of tides in 2021 anyway.


the studio has uploaded new works as produced in winter 20/21. please check the portfolio concerning the 2021 tableaus and video works over at svenpiayda.com/photography.

studio.svenpiayda.com


after a remix ep and collaborative releases with primal scapes, all notes off and 1satzleiter, ’black album‘ is still the current and last solo album by record of tides. as piayda announced skipping a new release we are happy to finally present a new video directed by matthias danberg for the track ‘vogh beats2’ from the 2020 album. danberg and piayda have finally brought results to their long term announced collaboration, the new video is based upon danberg´s ‘bee’ movies which had been in recent exhibitions is only slightly edited to fit the music. as the credit still above indicates, there might be more than one video done from merging the black album with bee movies.

instead of promoting new music, the video focuses on the recent solo work released about one year ago. recently there is no info on plans for releasing new music.

because of unexpected technical difficulties
the video will be available by march 28, 2021.

2021-03-25 'stadt park haus' car park art show to feature 'abyss' sound work
on saturday and sunday, march 27 and 28, 2021, 10 am to 6 pm, we invite you to visit our art exhibition in the underground parking lot at the kulturzentrum herne (KUZ). the exhibition is designed as a drive-in and allows you to experience art from your car. access to the exhibition is via shamrockstraße. admission is free.

with an emerging pandemic in the spring of 2020, photos of car-free streets, smog-free blue skies, and tourist-free cities circulated through social media. this gave rise to the slogan ‘nature is healing, we are the virus’. the change in everyday life created a powerful catalyst for decades-old socio-political issues. from then on, there was also a stronger focus on the repurposing of metropolitan spaces: sidewalks and parking lots were used as new outdoor areas by restaurants, streets were closed to car traffic and converted into temporary bicycle paths.

the exhibition STADT PARK HAUS picks up on these impulses and shows works that deal with the theme of nature and contrast with the austere concrete architecture of the underground car park. curator roger rohrbach has put together 18 positions by contemporary artists from north rhine-westphalia. they show paintings, sculptures and objects, installations as well as videos and photographs. participating artists are havin al-sindy, anna lena anton, jaana caspary, young-soo chang, nanja gemmer, nikola hamacher, paulina hoffmann, judith kaminski, stefanie klingemann, vera lossau, ulrich möckel, benjamin nachtwey, karla paredes k., sven piayda, mira sasse, dirk schlichting, maximilian siegenbruk and petra deta weidemann.
STADT PARK HAUS is an exhibition of the emschertal museum in cooperation with the cultural office of the city of herne.

sven piayda contributes a sound piece called 'abyss' (2021). the hour-long audible work slowly fuses lower pitched birdsong with the steadily falling shepard tone, all in the ambient hiss of saturn's rings. into its nadir ring 12 chimes, reflecting the 12 semitone steps of the entire octave retraced downward. the sound installation was created exclusively for ‘stadt park haus’ on request of katrin lieske and contrasts natural sounds with artificial provision and processing in relation to the given space.

all info at the bottom of this post.

in november 2019 the sg1 in duisburg opened the sven piayda solo show ‘if and only if’. next to cgi, photograpy and video the show featured a 60 minute soundtrack to drone through the exhibition called the ‘if and only if mash-up’ combining different sound works into one sound piece to escort and complete the show. now the studio is working on bringing back this mash-up. the studio is recently negotiating with partners possibilities of putting it back to display. it is also possible to bring it back via /CAMP.

next to bringing back this mash-up piece, the studio is recently working on a new immersive sound piece to be featured in an upcoming group show. more info soon.

in august 2020 the studio started the ‘little dancer’ video project dealing with degas´ famous sculpture which turned out to be a very ambitioned production challenge. caused by the covid pandemic the production took longer than expected and is still only half done. it is still not clear if the project can be finished as drafted. the result may also be a reedited version, however the studio is still focussing on finishing the piece as drafted.
recently we are making plans which may make it possible to take up production again in summer or autumn. however, we do not expect to present the piece before 2022.

in reaction to closed museums and galleries within the pandemic caused lockdown situation, galerie clowns & pferde has found a way to tackle this preposition. in the week of february 21 to 27 the gallery presented six video pieces by six artists in the gallery’s windows. 'spirit with thorn' (2017) was screened as hd version march 25, 2021. escorting events have not scheduled, nevertheless there was a corona conform meet and greet outside the gallery with gallery head bianca wickinghoff, sven piayda and further guests during the screening. we have collected some installation views and a video documenting the installation over at the exhibitions section.

2021-03-17 announcement of discontinued and recurring projects
after two remarkable releases with primal scapes and lockdown based studio projects we like to announce discontinuation of certain projects. as it has been mentioned in the journal and facebook, piayda finished a new record of tides album which was supposed to be released as ‘post internet’ in spring. the album was believed to be released on the hamburg based netlabel kreislauf.organisation. even if label and artist have anticipated the release, negotiations on how to do it have come to nothing back in january.
now piayda has decided to skip the release even if putting it out on zany music would have been an option. just like ‘yellowcake’ the new piece ‘post internet’ will remain finished but remain in the archive. tracks of both albums have been features in live sets but are not available apart from bootlegs. the reduction of releases is supposed to help focussing on a future release featuring different formats and even videos. ‘yellowcake’ and ‘post internet’ will remain unavailable until further notice.

within the second lockdown in germany sven piayda studio developed the ‘video master class: sound and vision in art’. this has been an opportunity for every creatively working person to apply for a master class put into practice via video conference tools. with the end of march the video master class ends. the studio is now moving on to future projects and will take the teaching format via video conference tools into evaluation. after reflecting this experience the studio will consider if there will be a second master class. for now, please do not apply anymore.
we hope all participants have taken developed principles and shared experience to enhance you professional work as an artist or any other conceptual or productive context.

sven piayda studio


fellowship artist and sven piayda collaborator matthias danberg has launched his new website. here you can have a look at numerous projects in different disciplines, now you can even watch his conceptual animation movies. here we like to draw your attention on the ‘order’ cycle, which is a movie divided into three chapters. for the last one sven piayda contributed music based upon productions originally done with AESTATE.
back in december 2019 rumours on a new collaboration appeared when the record of tides logo appeared on danberg´s instagram channel next to hand-drawn portraits of each other. however, there hasn´t been any common output since. now there are indications that this long term project is finally taken up again (which might indicate now music by record of tides). recently no detailed information is available.

the 'order' cycle



in this spring of 2021 we are planning future works and shows again while looking back on one year of pandemic. fortunately and surprisingly the pandemic situation made many shows possible by financial programmes for artists as well as donation possibilities. while making projects the studio has never puts profits first, nevertheless not every project can be done for free.
sven piayda studio would like to thank everyone who made cultural events possible within the pandemic and (co-)financed them.



in november 2019 the sg1 in duisburg opened the sven piayda solo show ‘if and only if’. next to cgi, photograpy and video the show featured a 60 minute soundtrack to drone through the exhibition called the ‘if and only if mash-up’ combining different sound works into one sound piece to escort and complete the show. now the studio is working on bringing back this mash-up. the studio is recently negotiating with partners possibilities of putting it back to display. it is also possible to bring it back via /CAMP.

next to bringing back this mash-up piece, the studio is recently working on a new immersive sound piece to be featured in an upcoming group show. more info soon.

more or less exactly ten years ago we discovered the mudam luxembourg museum and this is the picture sven piayda took in this very first moment of seeing it back in march 2011. the show on display featured artists like david claerbout and laurent montaron.
in retrospective, this discovery changed everything.
next to frequent returns it resulted in an undeniable impact on sven piayda studio and its work.

primal scapes has just released ‘white twin’ featuring alternative versions of songs from the debut album ‘entertain’. the collaboration for the ‘euclids’ releases has ended and zany music decided to not put out new music by record of tides but primal scapes mastermind michael schreiber and sven piayda have confirmed to work on a follow-up album schreiber´s project.

2021-03-01 primal scapes x record of tides ‘sweven euclids’ ep out now


following their highly appreciated collaborative album ‘revenant euclids’ using mostly generative sounds and structures, primal scapes x record of tides release the appendix ep ‘sweven euclids’ using similar production methods without creating any beats within their ambient pieces. once again both claim to have not played the major part in the production. the collaborative ep was not mentioned but was already produced in january and february 2021. michael schreiber and sven piayda have already announced to work on further common projects while looking for a new sound again.
the release comes without any announcement in advance and is uncommonly placed on a monday.
‘sweven euclids’ is released by zany music and distributed via bandcamp only two months weeks after ‘revenant euclids’ which the ep is supposed to expand.

‘revenant euclids’ is still available and highly recommended. the album features ten tracks mostly based upon randomized euclidian pattern. the collaborative album was not mentioned but was already produced in november and december 2020. primal scapes and record of tides released their collaborative album ‘revenant euclids’ without any announcement in advance on new year´s day via zany music and distribution via bandcamp.

primal scapes released the new ‘white twin’ ep featuring mostly alternative versions of songs from the album ‘entertain’ next to two new tracks. the familiar tracks are once again featuring sven piayda on guitar and chris huff on bass. even if michael schreiber has created new mixes with new drums and vocals the songs feature bass and guitar tracks recorded during sessions in summer and autumn 2020, which have been slightly rearranged only. so this ep is an appendix to the album expanding the range of styles.
michael schreiber states on his intention: ‘the principle of keep it simple in matters of music means to cut an idea down to the vital core. as a positive side effect of condensation new space appears to rethink and recreate a track. this is where the idea for these six previously released tracks came from.’
'white twin' is available digitally only via primal-scapes.de and zany music. you can still get your physical copy of ‘entertain’ on compact disc, please write to studio[at]svenpiayda.com

the szeniale festival is scheduled to return to gelsenkirchen on june 19, 2021. sven piayda is supposed to contribute a new video for presentation in public space (curated by nancy e. watt) and will also bring back a record of tides audio visual live set, hopefully escorted with contemporary dancers. caused by the recent pandemic situation we cannot guarantee the festival will actually taking place and if record of tides will be able to play. at least zany music considers to release the 2019 performance at szeniale as live bootleg as compensation for cancelled shows. all info concerning on-going developments will be communicated here when available.

within the current lockdown situation the studio will remain closed. we announced the temporary closing back in november 2020 expecting to reopen in february while now heading for april. now it is clear that big productions, software renting, personal interaction among assistances and internship students does not make sense within the pandemic and the lockdown situation. piayda is recently working on new work drafts and show concepts, but no show is scheduled with a fixed date recently. the studio will remain closed until further notice.

piayda has taken up a concept which was at first announced in the news back in autumn 2018. here the idea was given to reduce producing and exhibiting for turning to consulting. now the time is up: the studio offers a digital master class, piayda will be teaching sound and vision in the context of art. the master class will be offered as a digital format using video conference tools, so you will be able to join form everywhere without any threat of the covid-19 virus. please check the studio website for applying, the master class will be free, please apply by sharing your portfolio via website link and a short statement of motivation.
please note: the master class will end march 26, 2021.

we are sad to announce the postponement of the new sven piayda solo exhibition at essen-based kunstverein kunstwerden which was originally scheduled to be opened on sunday, november 8 at 4 pm. the show entitled ‘needle in the multiverse’ as curated by petra steinhardt combines multiple disciplines and aesthetic impressions. on october 21 the kunstwerden directorate has decided to close their rooms in reaction to rising infection cases of the covid-19 pandemic. the show is supposed to be opened when infection numbers go down again. the kunstverein kunstwerden and piayda considered working together back in 2013 and have scheduled a 2020 show back in autumn last year. as a result of the covid-19 pandemic a fixed opening date had not been announced as the pandemic development might have delayed announced dates. the studio has been working on this project for over a year now. during the lockdown certain sneak peeks have been posted via news and journal.

2021-02-19 clowns & pferde gallery returns ‘spirit with thorn’ to display
in reaction to closed museums and galleries within the pandemic caused lockdown situation, galerie clowns & pferde has found a way to tackle this preposition. in the week of february 21 to 27 the gallery will present six video pieces by six artists in the gallery’s windows. within this week each video will be screened one day only form 2pm to 8pm, fixed screening schedules are supposed to be announced. participating artists of ‘video kunst ausstellung’ are anabel jujol, joscha x ende, mr. maribel, andré schiegler, bianca wickinghoff, rosh zeeba and sven piayda. we are glad to announce the screening of 'spirit with thorn' (2017) within this group show.
it is screened on one day only, on march 25, 2pm to 8pm. you are invited to visit the gallery (but not to step inside) and enjoy the pieces through the windows. escorting events are not scheduled, you may meet artists and gallery head bianca wickinghoff during screening spans.

in the black and white video 'spirit with thorn' the camera circles in a slow endless ride around the metallic mirroring sculpture known as ‘boy with thorn’ in the barren martian landscape. the work captures the moment of being stopped. the situation of uncertainty transfers the sculpture in steady persistence, reinforced through the endless loop of the video. by its title and the stony, lifeless landscape the work refers to the mars rover 'spirit', which is stuck in a sand crater since 2009. it is also captured in perpetual perseverance and uncertainty. the metallic reflecting surface of the boy is reminiscent to the T-1000 of the ’terminator 2 ' blockbuster: a superior and seemingly unstoppable killing machine fails on its supposed inferior victim. as often in his video works piayda merges in ‘spirit with thorne’ references to art, science and pop culture, here he quotes a classic motif as contemporary allegory and questions the possibilities of modern technology.

in the context of the pandemic ‘spirit with thorn’ predicts a dark future: as the boy with thorn is the perfect allegory of being trapped with a certain constitution, he has not changed his pose ever since. also mars rover spirit did not manage to get off it´s trap again and still remains in the place it could not leave.

‘spirit with thorn’ debuted in the 2017 annual exhibition by mülheim based and local artists in the kunstmuseum mülheim. above you can see some impressions taken during the show.


the video returned in context of other video works in ‘adaptation (you´re mine)’ at galerie gublia in essen and ‘if and only if’ at SG1 duisburg.


update 2021-02-22: the video exhibition started yesterday with the first piece on display. now we like to share the galleries schedule for the upcoming works and dates. (click for larger view) enjoy!


the timing for the return of ‘spirit with thorn’ could not be better: yesterday nasa´s new mars rover ‘perseverance’ landed on mars exploring the planet to search for evidence of life in the past. the screening of ‘spirit with thorn’ on march 25 is a week after the new mission´s landing, hopefully not predicting the future of ‘perseverance’ but reminding of the limitations even in advanced technology.


selected stills are also part of the ‘multiverse memory’, a variation of the well known ravensburger memory card game. it features 48 cards produced by ravensburger while appearing slightly different than the original game, while playing the players will have to modify the rules to get along with the game. as the game is not on sale, the studio offers ‘multiverse memory card set’ editions consisting of three memory cards featuring works from different (and previously unreleased) mini series. while the sets will be offered as editions escorting the ‘needle in the multiverse’, you can purchase them now already for bargain price. as you see, the multiverse memory card sets consists of three original six by six centimetre ravensburger memory cards with the typical blue typography in rapport.

back in 2013 galerie clowns & pferde opened sven piayda´s solo show ‘imaginary black forest’ dealing with the idea of constructed perception featuring well-known works like ‘panamera’ and ‘dormancy’ which had actually been taken in the black forest.




today primal scapes releases the new ‘white twin’ ep featuring mostly alternative versions of songs from the album ‘entertain’ next to two new tracks. the familiar tracks are once again featuring sven piayda on guitar and chris huff on bass. even if michael schreiber has created new mixes with new drums and vocals the songs feature bass and guitar tracks recorded during sessions in summer and autumn 2020, which have been slightly rearranged only. so this ep is an appendix to the album expanding the range of styles.
michael schreiber states on his intention: ‘the principle of keep it simple in matters of music means to cut an idea down to the vital core. as a positive side effect of condensation new space appears to rethink and recreate a track. this is where the idea for these six previously released tracks came from.’
'white twin' is available digitally only via primal-scapes.de and zany music. you can still get your physical copy of ‘entertain’ on compact disc, please write to studio[at]svenpiayda.com

watch the ‘blackland (white twin mix)’ music video as directed by michael schreiber. feel free to share.


zany music released an unlimited and unsigned edition of the video collection on dvd. the dvd features well-known and previously unreleased music videos by sven piayda for AESTATE as they were fitting into the context of ‘imaginary black forest’. the dvd was released on commission and will be available via the gallery only for the time of exhibition. the dvd package contains a transparent cover with a white dvd featuring auto start function. the dvd contains six music videos plus opening and credits. the disc is labelled with ‘SP IBF AE’. even when the dvd is not part of a limited edition it was produced in limited quantities and was sold out during the span on display of the art show.


the szeniale festival is scheduled to return to gelsenkirchen on june 19, 2021. sven piayda is supposed to contribute a new video for presentation in public space (curated by nancy e. watt) and will also bring back a record of tides audio visual live set, hopefully escorted with contemporary dancers. caused by the recent pandemic situation we cannot guarantee the festival will actually taking place and if record of tides will be able to play. at least zany music considers to release the 2019 performance at szeniale as live bootleg as compensation for cancelled shows. all info concerning on-going developments will be communicated here when available.

2021-01-21 studio remains closed & master class launch
within the current lockdown situation the studio will remain closed. we announced the temporary closing back in november 2020 expecting to reopen in february. now it is clear that big productions, software renting, personal interaction among assistances and internship students does not make sense within the pandemic and the lockdown situation. piayda is recently working on new work drafts and show concepts, but no show is scheduled with a fixed date recently. the studio will remain closed until further notice.

piayda has taken up a concept which was at first announced in the news back in autumn 2018. here the idea was given to reduce producing and exhibiting for turning to consulting. now the time is up: the studio offers a digital master class, piayda will be teaching sound and vision in the context of art. the master class will be offered as a digital format using video conference tools, so you will be able to join form everywhere without any threat of the covid-19 virus. please check the studio website for applying, the master class will be free, please apply by sharing your portfolio via website link and a short statement of motivation.

please enter via sven piayda studio website

good luck!


even if the studio is closed we have updated the portfolio site and have added a first video piece and the first tableau works for 2021. updates to 2020 series have also been added. find out yourself.

svenpiayda.com/photography


sven piayda is once again in negotiations with the szeniale staff to place a video piece outside on a digital billboard for the festival period. curator nancy e. watt is recently working with the studio to pick, modify and produce the right piece for it. more soon.


the studio has been working on ‘little dancer of fourteen years’, a complex video piece which is half done. the production needs some extra software and maintenance, so the finishing of the piece is supposed to happen somewhere in the future. it was supposed to be done in 2021, it is possible that it may be even later. cross you fingers.


do you miss visiting art shows or even making them? we do. for the meantime we have updated the press kit, you can open and/or download it from the resources section.




the multiverse memory created one year ago and was supposed to be presented within the postponed ‘needle in the multiverse’ show. it is available from the studio site but has not been exhibited or playable (it is supposed to be played!). please be patient.




update 2021-01-23: as there is not much going on in the winter lockdown michael schreiber is now coming up with a music quiz on youtube called ‘paul´s quiz’. he will be hosting a live broadcast playing stretched (while shifting slowly to original tempo) versions of well known pop songs. he is going to use a software called ‘paul’s stretch’ which has been already in production of sven piayda´s sound piece ‘la mer’ in 2013. you are invited to join the interactive show, sven is also supposed to participate. all you need to know by michael:

'paul´s stretch' is a tool to stretch audio material beyond recognition. since we have nothing better to do at the moment in the evening, I want to start for about an hour a small fun quiz with tracks (1970ies –2000s) that you can realize on youtube in the live stream and guess in the chat. you can win fun and a relaxed hour. therefore: keep the drinks cold, the more people participate the more fun it will be.

here you can watch the live stream: youtube.com, 2021-01-29, 8 pm

you can already train your ears and test yourself with this example deliverd by michael. listen to this 1.18 min sample, the earlier you´ll guess the track the better.

paul´s quiz sample track

you may like to send your guess to studio[at]svenpiayda.com
see you on friday for paul´s quiz!

without any announcement in advance and definitely surprising primal scapes and record of tides released their new collaborative album ‘revenant euclids’ via zany music and distributed via bandcamp. the album features ten tracks mostly based upon randomized euclidian pattern. michael schreiber a.k.a. primal scapes has been busy within the last weeks in illustrating the production method or even using it live via streamed performance. the collaborative album was not mentioned but was already produced in november and december 2020.

michael schreiber has directed and produced a video for the track ‘p110_fracture’. the video features the full track as featured on the album. schreiber states: ‘sometimes being a human in an urban environment feels like being part of the matrix and I start thinking of giant 3d printers creating all these monotone structures.’
watch it over at youtube.




update 2021-01-09: we are delighted to announce that the final track from ‘revenant euclids’, the current collaborative album by primal scapes x record of tides, entitled ‘p73_aic_closing’ is featured on the recent episode (#554) of the weekly sundae podcast as hosted by stefan schulz. back in august he record of tides track ‘exxa’ was already featured on episode 534 followed by two instrumentals from the ‘entertain’ album in episode 549.

in november 2018 the galerie treppenhaus in erlangen opened ‘hochhaus - hütte – hinterhof, der reiz des ungeliebten‘ by thomas r. hoeß, gabriella héjja and karla köhler. the exhibition featured collaborative works by karla köhler and sven piayda like the ‘granada interface’ music video for record of tides, the ‘from new york to los angeles’ series and the ‘k-city’ series. the exhibition ended in february 2019 but returned now as permanent exhibition in the first floor of galerie treppenhaus. this permanent version of the show only featured köhler´s and piayda´s ‘k-city’ series. with the ending of 2020 the group show in erlangen ended, too.
many thanks to gallery head gabriella hejja and all participating artists for having this great show together.

we sad to announce the postponement of the new sven piayda solo exhibition at essen-based kunstverein kunstwerden which was originally scheduled to be opened on sunday, november 8 at 4 pm. the show entitled ‘needle in the multiverse’ as curated by petra steinhardt combines multiple disciplines and aesthetic impressions. on october 21 the kunstwerden directorate has decided to close their rooms in reaction to rising infection cases of the covid-19 pandemic. the show is supposed to be opened when infection numbers go down again. the kunstverein kunstwerden and piayda considered working together back in 2013 and have scheduled a 2020 show back in autumn last year. as a result of the covid-19 pandemic a fixed opening date had not been announced as the pandemic development might have delayed announced dates. the studio has been working on this project for over a year now. during the lockdown certain sneak peeks have been posted via news and journal.


back in 2015 sven piayda was asked to do an online exhibition at gallerie tellerand, a gelsenkirchen based online only gallery project. after being very sceptical at first, the studio developed a show dealing with the issues of digital presentation and reduced dimensions presented in disciplines like photography, cgi, video and sound.
the show was launched on november 1st 2015 and was extended to be shown until january 2016, featuring introduction text and conversation with gallerist michael em walter. the digital show vanished from the web and after the following show the gallery quit business. now, the gallery has updated the achieves and ‘#howdeepisyourlove’ has returned to the digital screen, you experience the virtual only show as it was drafted and presented back in 2015, see links below.
also: ‘four seasons after arcimboldo’ have been part oft he show, they are now on display as postcard versions at galerie gublia in essen.
