dataplex is the much-anticipated new release from
leading japanese electronic composer ryoji ikeda.
since the mid 1990s, ikeda has pioneered a radical
and highly influential minimalist approach in the
worlds of electronic and contemporary music. his
seventh solo album and the first musical
composition in the datamatics series - a new body
of work across various media that uses data as
both its material and its theme - dataplex
presents a significant and stunning progression in
ikeda's career.
aside from demonstrating ikeda's unrivalled
standards of technical precision, minute sound
construction and engineering, the album also
introduces an extraordinary and fascinating
overall structure.
the first eight tracks of dataplex consist mostly
of high-frequency raw data. their structures are
located clearly outside the cosmos of music.
instead, these linear tracks seem to be source
code transformed into an audible medium; a
constant stream of data, they represent the basic
material of the album.
the following pieces become longer, increasingly
complex and distinctly inter-related, before the
rhythmic structure itself metamorphoses. rhythms
and tones are refracted progressively, until, with
track 18, data.vortex, ikeda opens up an
apparently infinite acoustic space with an
expansive piece that contrasts dramatically with
all that precedes it.
and following this caesura the album almost ends
in the way it started, sinking back into the data
flow. the last track (data.adaplex) contains
specific waveform data that subtly reveals the
tolerances involved in processing digital signals.
it will cause some cd players to experience
unpredictable playback errors; this will not
damage equipment in any way.
through meticulous attention to detail and the
most minimal of gestures, ikeda succeeds in
expanding and enhancing his sound design to reveal
a new universe to the listener. dataplex opens up
avenues of pure musical abstraction whilst
simultaneously embracing complex, unique and
elegant individual composition.
in its entirety, dataplex remains inscrutable; a
mystery whose secrets require individual
investigation and discovery. its defiance of
appropriate definition, description or comparison,
ultimately underpins the pioneering nature of this
long-awaited release.
datamatics
dataplex is the first musical composition in the
datamatics series, a new body of works by ryoji
ikeda that explores the aesthetic potentials of
data by using data itself - from its transparency
to its materiality, from its ultra-speed to
hyper-diffusion. the project derives the hidden
constants of data-ness from the vast data ocean
that ranges from DNA and the everyday world to the
universe and pure mathematics.
