INTERVIEW + TRACKLIST >  https://inverted-audio.com/feature/opal-tapes/
ORDER MERCH > https://everpress.com/invertedaudio

For our second merchandise collaboration we team up with @opal-tapes to present a limited collection of premium organic tees and jumpers, adorned with a four-way print designed by Berlin-based musician, illustrator and artist @fredmannnn.

For the occasion, Stephen has recorded a 100% Opal Tapes retrospective label mix, providing a shape-shifting auditory journey through Opal Tapes' discography, composed entirely from music released on Opal Tapes and sub-labels Black Opal, VANILLA, and Zabte Sote.

In our interview, we discuss why Stephen founded the label, the importance of the work behind Opal Tapes' impeccable A&R, their considerations when reaching out to artists and supporting their craft, and sharing the story of how Opal came to release music from legendary artists Max Ravitz aka @PATRICIAAA and Brian Leeds aka @huerco_s — plus the story behind the simple yet enigmatic name.

100%

Album will be a 100 copy 12" vinyl edition available on neon-pink

Be In This Space

Shima33 - A Meditation On The Purpose Of Grandeur

Earlier this year I shut down Dream Catalogue after an explosion in both my personal life and professional life as an artist. I took a long time out through spring and summer and wrote a full first draft of a novel I have been planning for many years. In my free time I thought of new paths to take in my life, to begin anew. But Dream Catalogue is my brand and regardless of how things have gone before, there is always time to change. Through sheer force of will, with the proper orientation towards the future, we can evolve things into the new aesthetic, the unseen world, the mystery of reality. There is always an alternate path, regardless of what those stuck in the past say.

I have re-hired Shima as general manager, who I have had extensive conversations with about the future of the company and find ourselves fully on the same page on where things need to go. We have already made significant plans. With my creative impulse and his professional conduct, Dream Catalogue will rise from the fire of this chaos world like a phoenix. Legends will return and new faces will appear. Dream Catalogue EVO is evolution, it is the hypermodern alternative. We step forwards, unapologetically.

HKE - The City Is A Beast

Lost in a recurring dream, warped visions of a dystopian future. Shimmering lights, the static buzz of power lines sprawling through a lonely city. Altered perception, gazing into the void. Silhouettes in the sky, rain pouring down. Remnants of human life, echoes of your voice. I don't remember who I was, but I remember you.
