'Science, Art And Ritual' is a story of ‘process'. Growing up in Harrow (a then quiet suburb of London) in the 70’s and 80’s from the age of about 10, Kingsuk Biswas aka Bedouin Ascent's ears opened up to sound as he scanned the airwaves. The undeniable righteousness of 80’s dub via David Rodigan’s Roots Rockers shows was the first prominent influence he received, and with punk roots —and his burgeoning record collection— became exposed to the breathless post punk experimentation that followed in the early 80’s sweeping up free jazz, noise, dub and much more. Throughout though, he maintained his fascination with Indian Classical music which was a mainstay in his parent’s house and spoke with the same infinite space as Joy Division's 'Unknown Pleasures', and King Tubby’s Studio dispatches. Through those teens he assembled and de-assembled, knocking about with fellow travellers —punk bands, garage, space rock, noise. Something was happening. On-U Sound, ECM, Factory Records kept him plugged in and sane.

At that time Kingsuk's core studio setup revolved around his vintage Gretsch, Fender Jazz, Moog, TR-606 and rudimentary FX. He added congas, folk instruments, pipes, hand percussion, gongs, and jammed out shards of funk, noise, jazz fusion, electro and ambience into his hungry Tascam Portastudio. By 1987 these had morphed into what we’d now refer to broadly as techno, but the genre didn't exist beyond the reverberating walls of his bedsit, and he hadn’t yet plugged into the global conversation.

'Science, Art And Ritual' was released in 1994 by Rising High Records and was presented as Bedouin Ascent's debut album, although 'Music for Particles' (released in 1995, again on Rising High) was recorded even before —'SAR' sessions span from 1992-1993, whereas 'Music for Particles' were earlier from 1989-1992, with some older 4-track references from about 1986 too.

Weaved in throughout the album are subconscious references to music that Kingsuk heard in the past that still remained within sight as companions. The opening track "Ancient Ocean III", referencing the extinct ocean Tethis, unapologetically channels Tackhead, Colourbox, Mantronix and Lee Perry. The style was also deliberately juxtaposed to the prevailing sound in techno at the time, which had locked onto a rigid form of symmetrical kicks and light snare drums. Elsewhere 80’s soul and funk are frozen and captured in fragile glass lattices. Electric pianos resound throughout, such as in "He Is She", probably a half-memory of 70’s MOR radio from childhood sleepy night drives. A duel between kick drums from three generations of Roland drum machines —TR-808, TR-707 and R-8— is a central theme in "Transition-R", all in conversation, calling and responding. These were not just machines to Bedouin Ascent, but part of an extended family, with heart and soul.

Three decades after seeing the light, Lapsus is proud to present a special 30th anniversary reissue of this left-field techno gem in a repackaged and redesigned edition. All pressed on a deluxe 3LP marbled vinyl and including a limited lithographic insert print of the original album cover. All tracks have been restored and remastered directly from the original DAT tapes, and the album also features previously unreleased tracks such as "In the Clouds" and "Thru Water" —regularly performed live at that time and produced in the same period as the album sessions in 1993.

'Science, Art And Ritual’ may refer to esoteric traditions in Indian philosophy, but equally embodies the collision of the science, the art and the ritual that is at the core of being immersed in a deep musical journey.

Bedouin Ascent - In the Clouds - 2024 Remaster | Science, Art And Ritual (30th Anniversary Edition) [LPS-PS17]

After two highly acclaimed compilations featuring great international artists, the Austrian ‚downtempo’ label Heimlich Musik releases the first official EP by Basel-based Boris Muscheidt alias ĂVEM. The 20-year old newcomer proved his talent as an electronic music producer on his very own label LOKD. Additional releases on Cosmic Awakenings or Casa Caos have been well received within the community. His debut EP on Heimlich Musik – called ‘Nuages’ –  is packed with two originals and four remixes by Bernstein, Oberst & Buchner, Arutani and Dandara. The title track ‘Nuages’ – french for ‘clouds’ – features spoken words by Victor Hugo ‘on vit, on parle’, who is an inspiration for ĂVEM. The speech serves, according to Boris, to show creativity and melancholia at the same time. The deep rolling bassline is accompanied with celestial pads and dark, melancholic melodies. This melodically rich track serves as a powerful soundtrack for rainy autumn days. Vienna based Oberst & Buchner used many elements of the original in their remix. By adding guitars, a 303-like-acid-appreciatorsynth, percussions and pads they found a way to add colour and energy with a fluid, intergalactic mixture of synths and organic parts. Dandara’s version of ‘Nuages’ takes on a deeper but also more minimalistic approach to the original. The drums, percussions and pads are more groove-oriented. Combined with Victor Hugo’s speech it merges to swell in a symphonic ride. ‘Nyx’, named after the Greek goddess of the night, the second original by ĂVEM is even darker. The baseline feels like diving into a deep dark abyss in the ocean. The song gets lightened up by high synth notes flowing with a LFO and percussive tinkles that seem to reflect rays of light. Power and intensity is formed by the suspense of the composition. Bernstein’s interpretation is accelerated by about 10 BPM. The dark atmosphere of the original yields a huge panorama, shimmering synths and delayed percussions, which shine bright like a water surface mirroring sunlight. Twinkling sounds and warm synths create a fresh, vivid feeling. Arutani’s Super Mario remix is a beat-based version mixed with a hammering, yet jumping bassline. The remix is packed with harmonic and dissonant sound effects; one of them is the sound of Super Mario jumping. All in all, the EP offers an interpretation of what a dark autumn or winter night sounds like. It is the perfect soundtrack for this time of the year.

Mia Lunis | Burkamina  - Animal Trainer (Gottlieb Scheppert Remix)

In the hunt for the right after-hour sound, three „Plattenfreunde" came together inspired by the vibes of old David Lynch movies. The outcome is a soundscape rich of mystical nostalgia, contradicted by a pinch of humor and carefully curated moments of escalation. It reaches out for you and won't let you go home.

Dear friends,

The „Love and Nature“ artists set off on new adventures and this time they have to face the catastrophic incidents in Australia.

Since September 2019 hundreds of bush fires have burnt over 6 million hectares of land. Scientists estimate that over 1 billion animals are affected. the reasons for the fires are versatile but the worst drought in Australias history and record high temperatures - up to 46 degrees - may be the main reasons. All this can be traced back to global warming but lots of politicians and huge parts of society still close their eyes. It is terrifying to see that every year announcements like this are rising and we are still not able to develop sustainable economic systems. Just embarrassing that country’s like Australia, Brazil or USA, which have to face natural catastrophes more than other countries, blocking important resolutions to stop the climate change. But also we have to take responsibility for our consumption behaviours to sent a signal to the economy.

Kollektiv.Liebe decided to donate all earnings of this release to „Wires“ which founded an Emergency Fund. It helps to rescue sick, injured and orphaned wildlife.

We have to thank our supporters and fans all over the world and we are very proud about the feedback of the artists who investigated in this release. Only their enthusiasm created this great compilation.

---------------- Release Text - Flying Mountain -----------------

Indeed there shines beauty, when mountains dance.
I believe, a flying mountain made many of us already dream away into other dimensions.
I have no clue if Abdullah Ibrahim dreamt about this when he wrote his piece "Mountains", but it
makes me dream of this since quite some time.
With the "Three Good Boys" I have found a combo with which we can play ourselves into so many
different dimensions.
Whether on a stage or in Josefs living room, whether with fat bass or with acoustic frivolity.
With this release, two pieces of music may come to light, that have been able to grow for me only
by playing with the Boys.
My Brudi is as solid as a rock,
or the one I am sitting with, on top of the mountain,
indulging in the moon that appears in the water, so free and light.
In the intro of "Heilo", that side of the mountain that was still shining becomes grim and by all
means, a shady and scratchy beast awaits in the dark.
Nevertheless, bedded on soft furs, the Brudis are hanging on the bright side and rather howling
towards the moon.

"Todo aquello que mediante el pensamiento es generado, deja su huella indeleble en el akasha."

AKASHA MX es un espacio simbólico y parafísico dedicado a las composiciones musicales emergentes interpretadas en pasado, presente y futuro que busca rescatar el misticismo sonoro de las civilizaciones antiguas para generar un punto de encuentro con aquellos sonidos representativos de la música electrónica actual.

 Más que un simple compendio de memorias, buscamos tener influencia en las relaciones, creencias, sentimientos y realidades potenciales de cada individuo y de este modo guiarlos, educarlos y transformarlos a través de uno de los  atributos intangibles del hombre: el sonido.

“Everything that is conceived by thought, leaves its trace in the Akasha” 

AKASHA MX is a symbolic and paraphysical space which is dedicated to the emergent musical compositions that are interpreted in past, present, and future that seeks to rescue the mysticism sound of the ancient civilizations and generated a encounter point with those particular sounds of the electronic current scene.

More than a simple compendium of memories we look for influence in relationships, beliefs, feelings and potencial realities of every being and with this guide them, teach them and transform them through one of the intangible attributes of mankind: sound.
