fear no sound
Welcome to Botanica X:
Our motto is Fear No Sound, and here we embrace the freedom of creativity inherent in sound as a plastic medium.
Our releases exist outside of established genres, and range from the highly experimental to the intensely syncopated; from dialogic post hip-hop to Deep Black; to neodarkglamambient and architectonic soundscapes; and from completely non-musical sound compositions to complex, folk inspired electronic creations. From the beautifully meditative to the spiritually inspired. We also purvey our own brand of Noise Art, and other forms of highly-abstract sound composition and music, including multiple-turntable mixes which can be found on the FEAR NO SOUND mixcloud platform.
All of our releases are produced by Charles Edward Fambro, a graduate of Yale University, where he began his study of the intricacies of sound composition. He has received numerous awards and commissions for his work, notable among them is the 10-channel sound installation "Alien Stingers," composed for the New York Aquarium and commissioned by the World Wildlife Fund. Charles' latest commission was the sound installation for "Medicine," (by Simone Leigh) part of Creative Time's Black Radical Brooklyn project.
His work has been written about in the Wire, musicworks, AfroPunk, Pink Tentacle and Chicago Reader magazine. He also founded, and developed the "teaching ecology," for one of the first Sound Composition classes in the country for high-school students.
He has released over 10 CDs of his work through Delhf Records and Botanica X.
Inquiries concerning commissions and sound/art installations are welcomed.
Thanks For Your Support,
