oko is laced’s sophomore EP under her new moniker, which takes a new path compared to her previous noise explorations. Drawing inspiration from ambient music, dreampop, video game and anime soundtracks, breakbeat and IDM, the music conveys a dream world where the artist tends to escape in. The EP was produced over the course of 2021 since laced’s 2020 MUTEK performance in Montreal, taking a melodic approach in contrast to her more percussive productions. oko is best consumed under a pile of warm blankets or under the rain, its energy being one of catharsis, contemplation, healing and dreaming.

Billy Bultheel - Two Cycles
Label: PAN
Cat.No.: PAN 138
Release Date: 08 March 2024
Purchase: pan.lnk.to/TwoCycles

Billy Bultheel's debut solo album is an ambitious distillation of the composer's,' sprawling litany of influences and his unique approach to site-specific composition. A compilation of pieces created between 2016 and 2023, the album is a forceful testament to Bultheel's expansive performance practice and collaborations with cutting-edge visual artists like Anne Imhof and James Richards.

Drawing inspiration from industrial music and metal as well as medieval and baroque polyphony, Bultheel devised a way to present this collection of works side-by-side. The record is split into two distinct cycles: the Snow Cycle, which collects Bultheel's electro-acoustic and compositional work, and the Game Cycle, which assembles his electronic productions. These two suites have unmistakable symmetry; Bultheel's traditional compositions are bolstered by his understanding of electronic production, while his electronic pieces are moulded by his knowledge of classical and traditional music. "Two Cycles" is an album that exhibits duality, embodying the dichotomy of Bultheel's roles as both an ensemble composer and an electronic producer.

The haunting opening track of the 'Snow Cycle', 'The Arcades Project', — named after the unfinished compendium of architectural contemplations penned by the eminent German philosopher, Walter Benjamin - places four tubas in strategic towers surrounding the audience, creating an immersive auditory experience. Conversely, 'The Snows of Venice' — named after Alexander Kluge and Ben Lerner collection of short stories and poems — was conceived for two flautists directed to intertwine their melodies as they traversed through knee-high water.

The 'Game Cycle' meanwhile places a strong emphasis on rhythm, crafting a sonic landscape that resonates with overdriven metallic clanks and sharp stabs. Drawing upon his extensive experience in composing for choreography, Bultheel envisions a series of jittery dances that purposefully deviate from conventional timelines. 'Decreation' infuses techno with the visceral qualities of noise music and 'Game Theory' offers an unsettling skeletal barrage of saturated, precisely tuned percussive hits. Bultheel brings 'Two Cycles' to a close with 'Gigue,' a reference to the 6/8 baroque court dance that traditionally marked the conclusion of a dance suite; by merging marching rhythms performed by two percussionists on a single drum set with chaotic and evocative synth leads, he establishes a tantalizing counterpoint.

'Two Cycles' is a musical compilation that explores the themes of locale and landscape, elucidating the intricate dynamics that arise between the musicians and their audience, the ears and the architecture. Considering timbre, density and the psycho-acoustic qualities of communal spaces, from the warehouse to the cathedral, Bultheel draws indelible lines between seemingly distant concepts, merging the celestial with the terrestrial.

The double album cover, one for each side and cycle on the record, features a collage created by the Welsh video artist James Richards that merges medieval iconography with snippets of queer memorabilia.

Dayrealease "Revery Intuition" [AD006]

"Inspired by baroque, free jazz, dubstep, and early rave. Fairytale melodies, crafted on a MacBook Air, intertwine with sheer reality, expressed through self-captured ZOOM field recordings and cuts from foley sample libraries. orchestral instruments and melodic bass create almost nervous, excessively emotional condition, taken placidly as if in a meditative state, with help of ASMR-like experimental drum patterns."

Revery Intuition

Dayrealease - Stone's Feelings

BioWave Purifier is an AI-generated ambient journey built on bio-inspired frequency structures and deep rhythmic pulses designed to evoke a sense of cleansing, renewal, and inner clarity.
The album uses harmonic waves, resonant drones, and frequency-layered sound design to create an atmosphere that symbolically mirrors the idea of clearing out what does not belong — physically, mentally, or energetically.

Warm drones, pulsing sublayers, and vibrating overtones blend into a meditative soundscape that feels both primal and futuristic. Inspired by Rife-style frequency concepts, each track explores different tonal fields associated with purification, balance, and rhythmic release.

This is not medical audio — it is an experiential sound ritual, crafted to give listeners the sensation of cleansing, clearing, and energetic realignment.

Let the frequencies move through you.
Let the pulse refresh your inner space.

Fiberlight Ritual 1

CHRISTMAS AT LABOMA

The Way Through is a meditative journey across four ambient soundscapes. Field recordings captured in moments of transition are transformed through granular processing and evolving synthesis, creating spaces where the organic and electronic converge. From the textures of movement and travel in On the Path to the contemplative low frequency tones of Dusk, each track explores the territories between waking and dreaming, earth and sky.
