Mint. Totally stands out in todays music landscape.

Trappy introspection lifted from @angelicaamusic and firstcirclemusic’s @bodymotion debut.

‘AFC2’ marks the return of a potent alliance. Building on the promise of their initial link up in 2022, the duo conjure four woozy meditations on urban malaise. 

The sense of nostalgic longing palpable, angelicaa’s vocal incantations maintain an apparitional presence. Where its counterparts inhabit shoe gaze zones, our pick, ‘Moonrise’, brings a different kind of heads-down pressure.

‘AFC2’ is out May 19th on Body Motion.

Taken from SBKT059: Gooooose - Rudiments
Limited vinyl + digital - 26th July 2023

For our 59th release, we are very excited to present ‘Rudiments’, a new album by Gooooose.


‘2022 was a strange time in Shanghai. The good thing about being locked inside for months on end was that I had had the chance to find the time to observe ordinary, everyday things that surround me and probably many other people. A pencil, socks, a packet of biscuits, vegetables, meat, or small thoughts or some feelings or emotions that last for only half of a second. They all have interesting shapes and very delicate structures, multiple layers, like some sort of primal architecture made by an anonymous person many years ago. They are constantly telling stories, however often ignored by me, or us, for whatever reason. I decided to sit down and observe them carefully, and later started making sounds for them and their stories.

in drumming, rudiments are small and sometimes fundamental pieces that could later form longer rhythmic patterns.’ - Gooooose

Rudiments

Gooooose - Sandbox

@seekersinternational with a warped take on soundsystem dynamixxx for @grid-records’ new bass-focused compilation.

Assembling an all-star cast of bassbin mutants, ‘Sans Relâche’ finds the SKRS gang on a dubwise tip. Low-slung pressure from the same fertile, rudely abstracted territory they’ve inhabited for over a decade.  

Dubby experimentation inna twiss-up SKRS style. 

‘Sans Relâche’ is out June 23rd on Grid.

Pre-order: gridrecords.bandcamp.com/album/sans-rel-che

Premiere: Seekersinternational - Guide Dem Selecta [Grid]

With 𝑽𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑨𝒄𝒕, exael’s offering to the ENXPL series, the artist furthers their exploration of what they refer to as “the jester’s gaze”, wherein a variable array of emotions of the fool are less than obvious to decode. In this emotively charged interzonal reflection point, exael probes these psychedelic anxieties through eight varying tracks of accomplished electronic music production. Excavating the root role of the jester and it’s cosmic objecthood, exael takes on a synchronous identity; human and computer, jester and virus, superimposed. Far from a glistening ambient escapism, or sentimental shoegaze meditations, or obligatory club tropes, exael has created a sonic terrain unique to their own narrative and positionality as an artist. Side A of 𝑽𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑨𝒄𝒕 showcases exael’s comfort in fast tempo constructions, while the B side offers slower tempoed ventures with guest vocal duties by writer Zoe Darsee moving between trip-hop and industrial affectations.

exael is an alias of Naemi, an artist residing in Berlin. Their work under this moniker aims to upend elements of divergent sonic aesthetics and musical styles, reassembling them with the intent to create diffuse, mulitfunctional contexts. Utilizing exael as an avatar, Naemi attempts to access a collective subconscious via their own, externally processing the sounds and images that permeate contemporary life. Thus, highlighting the ways in which people merge and re-combine with culture on a molecular level as a result of this near-constant immersion. They present stimulating, lysergic sounds in an organic and explorative manner instead of the sometimes exhausting vibe of highly-calculated, experimental club music.

this is wait
this is i did not know they made smoke like ocean
this is aluminum dusk and sulphur clouds
this is sabah el kheir
morning of luck
morning of cinder
this is steam and ruin and flash-lit bodies
this is counting your lost
this is losing count
this is man greets dawn with head tilted back
this is man greets dawn with shrapnel
this is i cannot count fast enough
sam7ini

this is daughter
this is i am half yours
half light thrust, midwifed from some candle
this is some parallel life where my
father’s father took a left,
grabbed a fistful of soil and instead of leaving,
stayed

this is diaspora
this is always through the television screen
this is always the wrong question
this is five other coastlines
this is gutless
this is don’t change the channel
the least you can do is watch
this is diaspora
this is carry your name in bangkok
carry your name in brooklyn
this is wrecking ball of compass

this is wait
this is i did not know they made sky so famished
this is metal,
reincarnation of metal,
of children limp grey dust beneath
buckled buildings
this is sky of knives
this is body is not body but silhouette ribcage
and shallow graves
this is history

this is i did not know this earth had jaw
enough to hold all the things your children 
have dropped
this is village
this is village eats ash for a week
this is Allah
this is boys terrace bones for luck
this is girls press flowers for luck
this is what luck is it to survive one bullet
for another
this is black water and phosphorus fish
this is lost electricity
this is hands muddy from sifting through rubble
this is hands muddy for anything breathing
this is seven types of illness
this is rage is bread if it keeps you alive

this is Allah ou akbar
pray with both hands
this is hands and cathedral bones,
dirt in eyelash
this is teeth and teeth and teeth for months

this is daughter
this is carry your name in throat
carry your name in beirut
this is not gun
this is not missile
this is make the world say your name aloud
over Gaza and over Gaza and over Gaza
until they hear your music
because this is survived

this is you are loved
light spans for you over land and sea
and you are in the mouth of tripoli shoreline 
and boston nightclub and paris street corner
this is voice too soft sam7eena
this is sam7eena

this is daughter
lamplight reciting of Fatiha
this is wait and atlas
and keep waiting as some thread stretches 
gossamer thin across ocean
this is compass finding east
voice learning to rise
this is half yours
this is daughter
and we will carry your name everywhere

After diversifying with the release of a couple of tapes over the last few years, BFDM’s little sis — Homemade Soundsystem — returns to what it knows what to do best: a two-track bass-heavy dancehall 7 inch. This one is courtesy of Parisian producer Krikor, who was already behind the outfit’s first release back in 2019. The well named Captivation Riddim starts off as a slow-but-rough compelling tune with haunting and trippy vocal samples creating an adequately driving mood. On the flip, Liberation Riddim is a percussive chopped-up party starter, ideal for changing gears with multiple BPM shifts and breaks throughout the track.
