Synthwave / Darksynth mix

NULLPTR never fails. Since emerging in 2016 with the Optical LP, Eddie Symons’ project has become a byword for top-draw contemporary electro productions. After triumphantly returning to Sheffield’s Central Processing Unit with 2020’s Future World full-length, NULLPTR follows that album up with a new quartet of machine-funk slammers. Striking a balance between highwire, twitchy rhythm programming and some deft textural work, the Terminus EP demonstrates exactly why the NULLPTR name is so respected in the world of electro.

The first half here almost showcases the two sides of the NULLPTR sound in microcosm. Opening track ‘Connected’ zips along like one of the racers from a Wip3out game. The 808s are all booming breakbeats and hissing-piston hats, with a jittery synth bassline nipping in and out of the spaces left vacant by the drums. Atop these swirl eerie keyboard pads, the reverb from them draping across the rest of the instruments like fog above a city. By contrast, following cut ‘Mesospheric Cruise’ is the yin to ‘Connected’s yang. Where its predecessor was tense and coiled, this lilting number is expansive and open like a primetime Virginia joint - though the point where the wistful house pads strip back to foreground the twinkle-toed electro beat still has a pleasing crunch to it.

The B-side of Terminus serves dystopian snap from the off. Genre masters Drexciya are invoked by ‘Syndicate’. The needle-gun bassline here turns itself inside-out across these five minutes, and all the while the tune is laced with some evocative shadow-realm synth pads. A similar energy courses through the EP’s closing title-track, a cut which also brings into play a booming four-to-the-flour that gives it an unstoppable sense of forward-motion. Like ‘Connected’ and ‘Mesospheric Cruise’ - indeed, like all of the NULLPTR material that Central Processing Unit has brought us down the years - these jams will sound positively devilish when deployed in a dark basement.

The Terminus EP sees electro don NULLPTR (Eddie Symons) deliver four slices of unadulterated machine-funk heat.

Fresh off a 2023 album on the phenomenal Waxing Crescent imprint, DFHF, returns to Bricolage for his first release with us since 2021’s “Migration of the Meaning" and his sixth release overall on Bricolage.

The Manchester producer is known for his pristine and precise productions that always have an emphasis on lush textures and tones.

His latest offering. "Formations", brings with it those signature sound DFHF palettes full of luminous melodies, widescreen soundscapes and springy rhythms. Striking the perfect balance of man and machine with intricate percussive tones that intertwine with weightless atmospherics. At times euphoric and at times downtempo but always organic and immersive.

"Formations" is another high watermark in the vibrant audio adventures of Richard Jones.

Astropolis Records' DÔME sub-label is once again celebrating artists from the west of France with its 9th EP! With downtempo dubby, IDM and deconstructed rhythms, ravy and trancy club music, and shimmering electro grooves, the release smells Astropolis next edition vibes with this multi-faceted journey including tracks by Cwtch, Too Smooth Christ, Gneiss and Slow Dimension.

With ‘Dawnfall’, Rennes-based duo Cwtch (ratio/club), bringing together Pal Parallax and Fallen Tape, plunge us into a high-voltage IDM, in a chiaroscuro universe of deep sound design.

The second track is by Too Smooth Christ (Nocta Numerica, Kalahari Oyster Cult, mule musiq), a Finistère native with a love of vintage synths and original electro. Somewhere between analogue house and electro balladry, ‘Forbidden Bubblegum’ smacks of the joys of open-air bouncing and summer nostalgia.

Brest-based producer Gneiss slips us into a night-time party with ‘Capybaras Nebulae’. A ravy and trancy anthem tinged with progressive and shamanic atmospheres, with its acid line. A fine blend of contemporary club culture, reflecting his many influences.

The EP closes with the melancholy dub techno of Lou Berlinger aka Slow Dimension from Nantes, on ‘Tesla’, where organic sounds blend with catchy percussive sonorities in a luminous universe.
DÔME is bringing you summer vibes with this new release !
