Enter a world of light and texture with Grass Mirror's follow-up to his masterful "Apparatus" LP from 2020.

After a slew of EPs and albums spanning the past decade, Grass Mirror's sound has slowly expanded and distilled into an inescapable sonic palette.

This new collection of 4 songs continues his exploration into syncopated rhythms and foggy atmospheres. Off-kilter synth wobbles and shimmering synth pads take us further into dripping caves of sound. - HPT

From the artist:

“Persuasion” examines the relationship between growing older and finding novelty in new and unexpected terrain. Inspired by recent readings, a reconnection with nature, and a new baby boy on the horizon, these tracks evoke a specific time and place in my life. Uncertainty has been a through line for quite some time now and I sought to use that tension to probe how it could be affected and altered by the tools at my disposal. The balance of tight breaks and vast, reverted pads created an atmosphere that captures how I’ve been feeling. A sense of melancholy and escapism, but broken up by moments of hope, discovery, and elation.

Dedicated to my wife Devon, an endless source of radiant positivity and affirmation.

Arno Gonzalez is producing a modern house sound that sometimes ventures into melodic territory close to Electronica, the Angevin artist was first spotted by the Parisian label Missive, then by Timid Records, on which he released his debut album “Encounters”, as well as a number of EPs and remixes...

Today, he is one of the spearheads and leaders of Brique Rouge, David Duriez's label, with whom he is on a mission to perpetuate and reinvent a certain vision of House and Techno music.

With this second album, which marks “the end of innocence”, Arno explodes the codes of his music to better transcend them. We find his inimitable touch, a particular sound that is sometimes minimal, sometimes warm and melodious, a real signature on 13 tracks that tell a real story.

If this is the end of innocence, it's also the beginning of maturity.




Brique Rouge label is a pillar of the French House underground since 1999.

The label continues to disseminate the electronic sound David Duriez believes in, far from formatting and excessive vulgarity. An eclectic electronic sound that remains rooted in the underground and on vibe above all.  In general, the team's artists benefit from a carte blanche, and it's above all the state of mind that counts. The label isn't looking for success, it's a success. The success of being able to release music without compromise. With one release a week on platforms since 2020, the label (and its divisions RZ Muzik & Obliqu3) is seen as a key player on the French underground electronic scene, given the activism it demonstrates.

Faithful to the spirit of this music's beginnings - Acid House, Chicago and New York House, or the power of Belgian or Detroit Techno - the label has been churning out releases for 25 years without ever sinking into cynicism, nostalgia or parody. Brique Rouge has established itself as a key French label for the distribution of emerging and creative artists (known and unknown) who draw their inspiration from the roots of the genre, but also pursue the search for new vibes. Without commercial imperatives, the label innovates and denies itself nothing. No formatting, no time sacrificed on the altar of the platforms of streaming, with Brique Rouge it's not the face of the human behind the machine that is highlighted, but its music.

Ken Oath slip on their moon shoes for a joint venture with Freda & Jackson, pressing up four cuts that will have you slipping the surly bonds of earth and dancing in the skies. Loaded with basslines heavier than a neutron star and well-chopped breaks, produced with a dubwise ear for space, this is some of the duo’s finest material yet.
