aple - arrange.process.loop.edit - a micro-synched audio- visual project made with ableton live controlling vj software triggering typographical animations and embedded sound.
Amoeba’s EP delivers a matured, stylized motion graphic which he has developed over the past years in the visual arts scene. The music videos lean toward typographic abstraction, creating worlds where the elemental play of structure, colour and beat compete for the leading role. Varying approaches yield a range of moods: from the glitched out animation of “micro-recon” to the ambient alternation of “mirmicmeme version” and “mirmicmeme reaction”.
Combining an even, fresh soundtrack with museum-caliber images, aple is a must-see for the audiophile, VJ and art collector. For the first time amoeba lays down some of the secrets which he has devised from his coastal studio in the UK, and which have made him part of the international arts scene as both a performer and producer. He is now consistently taking his show around Europe an beyond, recently opening at festivals for One Dot Zero and Kazantip in the Ukraine.
Amoeba’s new wave of audiovisual live has been described as everything from "ground breaking" to "subtly ambient". When asked about the signing, label founder Ben Sheppee said "amoeba becoming is recognized as a strong example of progress that is currently taking place in the audiovisual movement; I think that this album will really help others realize the art-form, skill set and raise the standard on this kind of performance."
A key element of aple is its creative concept: amoeba explains his production technique as arrange / process / loop / edit - the acronym of which is the album’s title. Focusing on these techniques, "versions" and "reactions" display variation around the core aesthetics of McPherson's style, and uncover an exhibition of sampling, which could potentially change the way music and video is performed in the future.
