In “Retrace”, Spieth offers a fresh perspective on ambient soundscapes while retaining the signature elements that have come to define his musical identity. “Retrace” unfolds with meticulous precision, leading listeners through a labyrinth of sonic possibilities where every sound and texture serves a purpose in the narrative.

Among these immersive compositions, a standout collaboration with Giuseppe Tillieci aka Neel further enhances the EP's rich, textured soundscapes. Jin Synth's latest work showcases her signature blend of diverse ambient elements and innovative, hypnotic layers.

Titled "Enigmatica," the EP delves into a percussive and ambient realm, exuding a sense of mystery and the untamed spirit of the jungle. Each track intricately weaves together complex rhythms and atmospheric textures, inviting listeners into a world where every beat and resonance reveals a new layer of intrigue.

Italian electronic outlet Outis Music lines up a next EP by label curator Dino Sabatini. After a three year break for the label it's Sabatini himself who presents four fresh tracks of his immersive techno magic. Outis is known for their hypnotic, dark yet sensual presentation of deep techno and has a stellar catalogue featuring many of Italian’s greatest producers in this genre. But it’s always special when the label originator Sabatini steps up for a solo EP and so this is nothing less. It’s a wide presentation of what Sabatini is capable of, from the airy atmospheres of ‘Peuceus’ to the hypnotic bleeps of ‘Dryalus’. On ‘Perimedes’ the fierce kick drums create a banging highlight with ‘Antimache’ bringing us back down to the iconic and well loved Sabatini swamp grooves.

Pre-sale available on Bandcamp.
Release date: 24/01/2025

Pre Order

ca y est - je cloture cette ambiance

2ème et dernier son sur Ableton 12 version Intro - 16 pistes, instrus et effets de base - synthèse de mes premières expérimentations sonores en 2025 - maintenant je passe sur Ableton Live en mode full stack - a moi le Live à 64 pistes, je vous en dirais des nouvelles - dans 2 mois ou 5 ans ca dépendra

atmosphere sombre et sous tension, un drum rack poncé au max et un synthé que je maitrise plus vraiment mais que j'aime tellement. 

au début le projet s'appelait esquise dimanche soir, né l'hiver dernier, puis Onde Lyrique, puis enfin Cryptonic, parce que les néologismes c'est ma passion ; une énergie dure à déchiffrer. 

merci au 6iel encore pour le saut de la foi, il le fallait, j'ai l'esprit libre a nouveau
