"It’s an unnerving world where familiar club sounds are smudged out of shape, each track a surrealist sculpture as much as a cyber-jungle rhythm." (https://soundcloud.com/thequietus) 

"Wax is precise in its sound design, fluid in structure and confidently able to add a fresh sound to UK Bass and dance music in general." (https://soundcloud.com/ma3azef) 

"Meticulously crafted while sustaining knife-edge atmospheric tension throughout, crystalline sound design succumbs to the overdriven maelstrom time and again." (https://soundcloud.com/if-only-uk) 

On Wax (GEN049), https://soundcloud.com/klahrk & https://soundcloud.com/kavarimusic pair up to present a basket of hammering, blasting club tracks with a focus on radical digital sound manipulations. The duo presents a sound design show-off consisting of raspy stretch algorithm artifacts, vocoded pulses and slimy granular flurries. Rhythmically, high impact overdriven kicks and syncopated motifs give the tracks a high energy urgency and momentum. Simmering, crusty chopped up break beats accompany stroboscopic pads, glistening metallic percussion and sweeping electro-acoustic gestures. Maneuvering naturally between almost snapping, bursting, fragmenting passages, effervescent glistening chords sometimes emerge, ready to get whacked by mangled, contorted drum machine outbursts.

Tzusing - 孝忍狠 (Filial Endure Ruthless) (PAN 123S)

Long-time friend of the label Plesk Parallel makes her way to All Centre to release a sublime double tracker. On Spit Fountain, Plesk Parallel revitalizes her sound with a pair of transcendent, explorative club tracks.

Spit Fountain opens as a CR-78 drum machine workout heavily manipulated by masterful sound design. Drum clicks reverberate across a cavernous space charted by booming sub-low kicks. A disorienting melody enters the fray in the latter half of the track, reminiscent of AFX b-sides and microtonal experiments.

Morpho shifts into a more mechanical, to-the-grid groove with rigid kick drums and earworm percussion. Drawing on 90s & 00s broken techno, Plesk Parallel puts her own spin on these conventions, augmenting the style with perfected sound design, hypnotic pads and a heavy, dubbed-out bassline.

Spit Fountain is available on all digital platforms from November 10th.

Plesk Parallel - Spit Fountain [ACEN053]

Artist: Dayoung
EP: Latency
Format: Digital
Cat.No: CHI052
Master: Justin Randel
Artwork: Dayoung
Release Date: 25 October 2024

Baroque meets industrial techno on Latency, the latest EP from Seoul-based DJ and musician Dayoung. Through the pounding rhythms of taiko drums and dark swirling electronica, she creates a melancholic soundtrack to an existential crisis on the dancefloor.

Latency, her first release on Chinabot, comes after a period of self-realisation for Dayoung. “I aim to express emotions such anxiety and uneasiness into experimental, deconstructed sounds that are still more or less describable in dance-floor grammar,” she says. “Strong sounds and textures are a kind of release for me. Subversive music is an outlet. It screams out things I can't say in words.”

 

Building from the creeping, liquid sadness of the opening tracks, Strong/Weak, Dangerous fills in a slow BPM with distorted samples, including her own whispering voice, to create a stuttering whirlwind of repressed angst. “Sometimes you want to say something but it’s just not easy due to circumstances, and I wanted to reflect on this kind of situation,” Dayoung says.

 

On the next track, Disturbing Choir, heavy kicks and breakbeats turn the drama up a notch, driven by stacked melodies that interlace like a choir. An ominous feeling grows throughout the record, which ends with Expired, built around a Latin American tresillo rhythm bulked out with heavy bass and kicks. Leaving the listener with a sense of unease, it is characteristic of Dayoung’s refusal to provide any simple conclusions, preferring instead to draw us into the mist of the emotional moment.

Dayoung is a DJ and promoter based in Seoul who plays heavy bass, reggaeton, UK bass, breakbeat and more. She is also a member of the art collective Lost Air which archives and researches the underground electronic music scenes of (mostly) Seoul. In 2023, she launched a new Seoul-based collective, Fragmented Service, with fellow musician and DJ Jaeho Hwang. She has played with and supported artists like Dis Fig, Flora Yin Wong, NET GALA, and Salamanda. At the moment she is the promoter of her own party series [Girls Gone Wild] and is a monthly roster member of Visla.fm radio.

Ecuadorian producer Daniel Gachet “Entrañas” presents his debut full album Caverna on Infinite Machine. The project explores an amalgam of polyrhythms found in traditional Ecuadorian music such as bomba and albazo, blending them with jagged atmospheres of uk bass and grime. Through deliberate sound design, Entrañas seeks to place the listener within the unpredictable ecosystem of the city of Quito and its surroundings.

In this record Entrañas searches for a sound that conveys both the infrastructural chaos he experiences currently in his home city, while also reflecting the hauntingly beautiful and seemingly perpetual terrain just outside of Quito. Not far from the frequent and unpredictable power outages and city wide lockdowns which are now commonplace due to the ongoing narco wars, there is an Andean stratovolcano visible from many parts of Quito, including Entrañas own bedroom window. Ruco Pichincha stands nearly 5000m in height, attracting awe and curiosity of many who happen upon it, perhaps by way of its beauty as well as its innate potential for mass destruction. A particular location of interest for the artist, the mountain emits a kind of objectivity that is distinct from the urbanscape of human activity; it asserts itself, unobservant of the adjacent violence, trials and tribulations. Its very name–“Ruco” translated in English to "old" from the indigenous Quechua language–seems to reflect both its acquired reverence from native inhabitants of the region, as well as the relative incomprehensibility of such natural monuments.

On Caverna, references to Quito and its encompassing geography are apparent in ways that are direct at times, nuanced at others. “Toque de Queda” (trans. “lockdown”) was produced in real time during a city wide lockdown in which Entrañas and his collaborator Ene Ese were unable to leave an apartment for hours on end. The sheer apprehension of such a situation can perhaps be gleaned from the seething claps and non-melodic droning atmospheres that build, producing a tone of frustration and unease. Tracks like “Coscacho”, “Muerto A Puntapiés” and “Cruces” seem to take on a similarly minimal approach, focused on brooding heavy bass lines and relentless polyrhythms that become increasingly menacing as the tracks build. A listener might imagine these compositions to conjure the rumbling subterranean activity of Ruco Pichincha. As their names might imply, “Caverna” and “Cascada” take a different approach, building up shimmering soundscapes reminiscent of 90s new age. These ephemeral sequences seem to summon meditation on natural landscapes in a way that feels lighter and more optimistic, unveiling a softer vision.

In light of his prolific catalog, Entraña’s twelve-track work reaches into territory that feels both more personal and experimental–though these compositions are undoubtedly dance-floor ready. Caverna brings together anthems of leftfield club music with chambers of ambient reflection–both of which read as significant and distinct to the artist’s background and day-to-day experience in Quito. As the majestic and humbling mountainous surface of Ruco Pichincha might resemble, Caverna’s title track ends the record with a reminder; a gentle nod to the significance of such sacred wonders as places of refuge in our human experience; whether we can grasp them, or see them from our bedroom window.
