Umculo kaMike Paradinas, omunye wabaculi abahamba phambili emkhakheni we-electronics, ugcina lokho kunambitheka okumangalisayo kwamaphayona e-techno.
Ngisho nalapho ulalele ekhaya, ungabona ukuthi uMike Paradinas (owaziwa kangcono ngokuthi u-Ziq) uhlola kanjani uhlobo lwe-techno yokuhlola futhi adale izingoma ezingavamile.
Ngokuyisisekelo azwakala njengamashuni e-vintage synth anesigqi sebhithi esihlanekezelwe.
Amaphrojekthi aseceleni alo mculi afana no-Diesel M, u-Jake Slazenger, u-Gary Moscheles, i-Kid Spatula, i-Tusken Raiders ivame ukugqamisa futhi ihlekise u-Ziq nge-jazz yakhe, i-funk ne-electro inspirations.
Ngesikhathi esifanayo, uParadinas ngokwakhe uyaqhubeka nokudala umculo ngendlela yakhe evamile, enesitayela sakhe ku-arsenal yakhe.
Amarekhodi e-u-Ziq okuqala ayesekelwe ekushaywayo okukhulu. UParadinas kuphela owasebenzisa le ndlela.
Ngaphezu kokushaywa, i-synthesizer iphinde yasetshenziswa nemiculo esheshayo eya ngokuya iba phezulu.
Njengoba uParadinas eqala ukuhlanganisa izinhlobo ezahlukene zezinhlobo ezihlangene, umsebenzi wakhe waba inhlanganisela egcwele futhi ebushelelezi ye-hip hop nesigubhu kanye namabhesi anemiphumela yezimboni kanye nemiculo elula efanayo yomsebenzi wakhe wasekuqaleni.
Umsebenzi wakamuva womculi wabonisa intshisekelo yakhe kwezinye izinhlobo nezitayela ezifana ne-Chicago's juke/footwork scene, i-British rave ne-Detroit techno.
Okufakiwe kokuqala
Uzalelwe eWimbledon (yize akhulela eLondon ehamba esuka ezindaweni ngezindawo), uParadinas waqala ukudlala amakhibhodi ekuqaleni kwawo-80s futhi walalela amaqembu amasha adumile njengeHuman League neNew Order.
Ujoyine amabhendi amaningana maphakathi nawo-80s, wabe esechitha iminyaka eyisishiyagalombili edlala amakhibhodi ebhendini iBlue Innocence. Nokho, ngaleso sikhathi uParadinas wazibhala yena. Ku-synthesizer, uqophe amathrekhi amane.
Ngenkathi uBlue Innocence ehlakazwa ngo-1992, yena nomculi webhesi uFrancis Naughton bathenga isofthiwe ekhethekile futhi baphinda baqopha ezinye zezinto ezindala zikaParadinas.
Ngemva kokudlala indaba kaMark Pritchard noTom Middleton - I-Global Communication and Reload duo kanye nenhloko ye-Evolution Records - babefuna ukuyikhulula njengomsebenzi wabo wokuqala.
Izibopho zokuqopha kamuva zaphoqa u-Pritchard noMiddleton ukuthi bahoxise isivumelwano sabo, nakuba ngaleso sikhathi u-Richard D. James (a.k.a. Aphex Twin) naye wayesewazwile amathrekhi futhi wavuma ukukhipha i-albhamu ephindwe kabili yelebula yakhe ye-Rephlex Records.
I-albhamu yokuqala - "Tango n 'Vectif"
I-albhamu yokuqala ka-u-Ziq kwakuyi-Tango n' Vectif ka-1993. I-LP yabeka isifanekiso somsebenzi omningi owalandela kaParadinas, ngezinye izikhathi umsindo we-percussion ocindezelayo osekela uhlu lwamaculo amnandi kakhulu.
Ilebula ye-Rephlex yayisanda kuqala ukukhula futhi ithola ukunakwa okwengeziwe kwabezindaba. Ikakhulukazi, ukuthandwa kwacasulwa ukukhululwa kwe-albhamu ye-Aphex Twin ethi "Selected Ambient Works 85-92".
Nakuba uJames engagxili kakhulu kulebula yakhe kunoGrant co-founder Wilson Claridge, umsebenzi kaLuke Wiebert's (aka Wagon Christ) "Rephlex Cylob" wenze inkampani yokurekhoda enye yezinto ezidume kakhulu emculweni we-elekthronikhi.
Ukuhamba kukaNoton
Lapho uNaughton eqala ukuthatha ikolishi ngokungathí sina, washiya ngokusemthethweni u-Ziq. Kuyaphawuleka ukuthi Paradinas akazange afunde isikhathi eside: kusukela ngo-1990 kuya ku-1992.
I-albhamu yesibili kwakuhlelwe ukuthi ikhishwe maphakathi no-1994, kodwa amakhophi angu-1000 kuphela omsebenzi akhululwa. I-albhamu ikhishwe ngokusemthethweni ku-Rephlex kuphela ngo-1996, ngemuva kokuthi uParadinas ehlele wonke amaphepha kulebula.
Ukukhululwa kokuqala kulebula kwaphuma ngo-1994, ngemva kokuba umculi evumile ukubamba iqhaza kuphrojekthi yokudala ama-remix e-Virgin Records.
EP “u-Ziq vs. I-Auteurs” yayingesinye sezibonelo eziphakeme kakhulu neziyimpumelelo zokunyakaza kwe-“remix after obliteration” (ukuchithwa ngesiNgisi kusho ukushelela, ukuvala izikhala).
Lo mnyakazo wawuhlanganisa ikakhulukazi abakhiqizi bezinto zikagesi futhi bekuwumsebenzi wabo wokuzilibazisa.
Ingqikithi yomnyakazo bekungukuthi ukwenziwa kabusha kwengoma ye-pop akumele kufane neyokuqala.
Ukusebenza ngelebula ye-nu-skool Sula
Nakuba ama-EP ayengewona amandla amakhulu okuthengisa, ilebula le-Virgin lisayine i-Paradinas kwinkontileka futhi yanikeza imvume yokukhulula umsebenzi wakhe, kanye nethuba lokuthuthukisa abaculi abanomqondo ofanayo.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, umculi wathola ingxenye encane yelebula ngomsebenzi ozimele.
Kube nesigatshana enkontilekeni yakhe mayelana nokuqoshwa okungenamkhawulo ngaphansi kwamagama ahlukene. Ngokusobala uParadinas wayejabule kakhulu ngalokhu, futhi kakade ngo-1995 wethula amagama-mbumbulu akhe amathathu futhi wakhulula inani elifanayo lama-albhamu esikhathini esingaphansi konyaka.
Ilebula ye-elekthronikhi i-nu-skool Clear ikhiphe ingoma yokuqala yomculi ethi "Tusken Raiders" ekuqaleni konyaka.
Lokhu kwehlisa ukunaka komphakathi emculweni we-elekthronikhi ovela kubadidiyeli abafana no-Aphex Twin, Global Communication noJames Lavelle (oyinhloko ye-Mo' Wax Records).
U-Clear uphinde wakhipha i-albhamu yokuqala yomculi, "Jake Slazenger MakesaARacket" ngo-1995.
Yize ethembekile esitayeleni sakhe, kuyabonakala kulo msebenzi ukukhetha kwalo mculi evuna i-funk jazz, ebingakaze isetshenziswe yiParadinas.
UGary Moscheles noJake Slazenger
Ushintsho lwesitayela luphinde lwavela kwenye i-albhamu equkethe uParadinas: "Spatula Freak" ka-Kid Spatula. Umsindo wayo wawufana nowokuqala womculo womculo, kodwa unomsindo omncane.
Ngemva kwenyanga eyodwa kukhishwe i-Spatula Freak, abakwaParadias bakhiphe i-LP yabo yokuqala egcwele ubude ngaphansi kwegama elithi u-Ziq elebula elikhulu elithi In Pine Effect.
I-albhamu ihlanganisa amaculo aqoshwa kusukela ngo-1993 kuya ku-1995. Futhi nakuba bekuyi-albhamu ehlukene ngokwezwi nezwi, ibibonakala ixakile futhi ingahlangani kubalaleli.
Ngo-1996, uParadinas wakhipha i-albhamu yakhe yesibili ngaphansi kwegama mbumbulu elithi Jake Slazenger, Das Ist Groovy Beat Ja? Ku-Warp" kanye nomsebenzi wakhe wokuqala ngaphansi kwegama elithi Gary Moscheles - "Ubunjwe Ukwenza Impilo Yakho Ibelula".
Linga ngesitayela
UParadinas wangena ngo-1997, elungele ukwenza izinhlelo ezifisa kakhulu futhi asebenzise esinye sezitayela ezingavamile kakhulu zomsebenzi wakhe: ukuhlanganiswa kwe-techno yakhe ngezigubhu ezisezingeni lomgwaqo kanye nezigqi ze-bass.
Ngonyaka owedlule, i-Aphex Twin yayikhiphe ingoma eyodwa enesihloko esithi "Hangable Auto Bulb", kanti iphrojekthi kaTom Jenkinson's Squarepusher inikeze isigubhu kanye ne-bass okokuqala ngqa okukholisayo kokudlalwayo.
I-Paradinas yangena endaweni ye-techno nge-Urmur Bile Trax, Vols. 1-22". Lena i-EP ephindwe kabili kodwa ekhishwe njengeCD eyodwa.
Ukuqhubeka nomsebenzi ophumelelayo
UParadinas, futhi ikakhulukazi igama lakhe lokuqamba elithi u-Ziq, wethulwa kubalandeli abaningi be-rock ngemuva kokuvakashela eMelika njengokweseka umculi u-Björk.
Lolu hambo lwaba nomthelela emsebenzini wango-1999 obizwa nge-"Royal Astronomy". I-albhamu ihlanganisa izinhlobo ezifana ne-acid techno ne-hip-hop.
Ikhishwe ngo-2003, i-Bilious Paths kwaba ukukhululwa kokuqala kwe-u-Ziq ukuvela kweyakhe ilebula iParadinas Planet Mu.
Ukuqhekeka kobudlelwano kugqugquzele umculi ukuthi akhe icwecwe elimnyama nelimnyama lango-2007 elithi "Duntisbourne Abbots Soulmate Devastation Technique".
Ukusebenzela iPlanethi Mu kanye nephrojekthi yakhe nonkosikazi u-Lara Ricks-Martin (oku-albhamu yakhe yokuqala ethi Love & Devotion eyaphuma ngasekuqaleni kuka-2013) kwakungezinye zezizathu ezenza u-Ziq athathe ikhefu ekulingiseni.
Ngawo lowo nyaka, inhlanganisela ye-Somerset Avenue Tracks (1992-1995) yaphawula iminyaka engu-20 yempilo yobungcweti yomculi u-Ziq futhi yaqoqa amathrekhi angakhishiwe kusukela ekuqaleni komsebenzi wakhe.
I-albhamu ethi "Rediffusion" ivele ngo-2014, kanye ne-"XTLP" ngo-2015.
