That Moment by Sopa Boba (featuring Pavel Tchikov/Ogives and G.W. Sok/The Ex, Oiseaux-Tempête)



Quote:

Sopa Boba is a Belgian/Dutch, electronic, modern classical project. The idea behind the form is a so-called Oratorio from the present age which unfolds a dramatc tale within a sociopolitcal framework. The compositons incorporate a neo-classical style string quartet, harsh modular sytnhs and spoken word vocals.

That Moment is an adaptaton of the eponymous text by Moldavian writer Nicoleta Esinencu. The startng point of That Moment takes place in a real fact, which happened in present-tme Moldavia, where a father cut his son’s fnger with an axe, as a punishment for stealing a bit of money from the father’s wallet. From there the author combines the tale and its reality with a caustc irony, interrogatng an unbridled capitalist society, where everything and everyone is for sale. The total playing-tme is 55 minutes, somewhere in between a hybrid electronic – modern classical oratorio and a concept album, with seven tracks that serve as seven chapters of an ironic and satric story about the downward spiral of the capitalist society.

"A pervasive and fascinating piece of contemporary art, giving you plenty to get caught up on whether by means of the music itself and the details found within it, the overlying narrative, or simply all of it at once". - Everything is Noise

Good to see you’re still a fucking cunt.

Actually maybe I’m thinking of someone else. Anyway, who cares, this was a dumb thing to say.

Severian 12.08.2024 12:22 AM

(The cunts I was thinking of were Genteel Death AND guest.)

Every time I open this fuckass message board it’s just people being unspeakably shitty to each other in ways I never would have expected when I came here more frequently.

I take a look and go: Fuck this. Because fuck this.

You know, I said that partly in YOUR defense, but OK. Fine. Be fucking weird about it.

!@#$%! 12.08.2024 11:38 AM

i thought it was a funny burn and we had moved past it. what the fuck is a primal scream anyway? i don't think i've ever heard it or if i did i can't remember

anyway please keep posting more musical announcements. i must harvest your efforts to one-up each other, and save myself labor. SAVE ME LABOR

anyway i leave you with this

He's always been a bit of a crybaby when someone does not shower heaps of praise on his music taste on this forum.

Like how? I think even Skuj picked up on the comment and gave me the right reply because he thought it was in jest. Stop being the sort of dude whose end of year record list has been shunned somewhere and can't take it. It just makes you a manchild, rather than myself a cunt. I certainly can be, but I am as easy going as it gets when it comes to music. Peace.

Skuj 12.08.2024 07:29 PM

Oh. I thought GD2 was calling me the crybaby....as he does.

Shit. Is this still funny?

I literally don’t know what you’re talking about. I can’t remember ever being mad about an album list, and when my favorite album does top a list I honestly think, “I probably need to listen to more music.”
Who the fuck cares? What are we even doing here?

No clue what’s happening

Severian 12.08.2024 07:47 PM

Anyway I don’t know a ton of 2025 releases but a new Clipse album is on the way. New Sparks. I’m mostly just excited for the new DJ Koze.

They already kicked out their drummer so I guess you are right.

I’m a Big Thief convert at this point. Great band. I’ll definitely be listening.

Skuj 12.10.2024 01:17 AM

That last album, the title of which I can never remember, is magnificent. An 80min opus with absolutely zero filler. Lenker is a genius.

The Soup Nazi 12.10.2024 04:49 AM

I ain't never heard no Big Thief.

Not that many when you start to summarily dismiss some of them, which, sorry not sorry, it's the right thing to do. I mean, do you expect anything good from Interpol? Come on.

That said, there probably will be a lotta good albums this year, and once again I'll be frustrated as fuck because I can't get all the ones I need. I'm still NOT done with 2024 by a long shot!

Yeah, no, I'm OK with that; I meant money. Goddamn MONEY.

Also, I grammatically screwed up in my previous post, but I can't fix it now because you quoted me. :D
