“For an instant I think I saw. I saw the loneliness of man as a gigantic wave which had been frozen in front of me, held back by the invisible wall of a metaphor.” - C.  Castaneda

Inner Techno [Tracks - Part I]

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Esther Duijn. "Sixth Extinction" is a crusher which is off the new v/a from Expel Your Demons. In succession to their first well received VA “ethereal sound guiding towards salvation”, Expel your demons records presents “Father, please forgive my sins”, the second VA curated by the Bristol based techno label.  After the success of last one, being still on the All-time Best selling Industrial techno/Acid techno/Hardtechno Va's on Bandcamp, EYD decided to bring a follow up album. Same line of artwork, some concept, same line of music range too. 
Out April 19th and you can order on Bandcamp: https://expelyourdemons.bandcamp.com/

PREMIERE: Esther Duijn - Sixth Extinction [EYDVA02P3]

Track: Esther Duijn - Ninety Nineteen Nine[ https://soundcloud.com/esther-duijn]


“Disobedience” is the result of a percussive and brutal symbiosis of Rennes, Chilean and Netherlands artists. The strident rise from experimental noise to hardcore, through the industrial, is a call to defend our freedoms and refuse to submit. Disobedience is a weapon! We can no longer mobilize on the dancefloor but we perpetuate our activism through music and all its power.


Namscha sets the tone with a heavy and sacred track, in homage to the cult of Cybele and the Sibyls, prophetesses who created works of divination. In his full hardware creation, Dj Padset transcribes a sinister and chaotic period linked to the forgetfulness of what we lived before, the lack of letting go and translates an inevitable resignation. On the contrary, Esther Duijn’s “Ninety Nineteen Nine” refers to the legendary piece of Prince. Her track is destined for the dancing, dark and torrid peak hours of the clubs because for her we cannot wait for the day when we can party again like it’s 1999. The dark and heavy techno serves as a springboard for Unsure, who has created a real fall from hell with hardcore kicks and reverse bass and Allison Trench opens the way with sharp knives for the freedom of all to exist without fear.


This compilation is an invitation to the reflection on our freedoms and to the need of recovering them to invent the world of tomorrow. It inspires the building of an alliance, so that everyone can express his humanity and celebrate our differences together.

Esther Dune - Death Row  MASTER X 1644

UNTREATED Podcast 049 by https://soundcloud.com/estherdune?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

Being praised for her excellent high-end precision mixing skills Esther blends styles together flawlessly, bringing quality & content to any dancefloor. From raw electro to Detroit techno, hard techno & proper acid techno. She creates a natural flow traveling effortlessly through all the decades of electronic music like time doesn’t exist. 

She also enjoys playing deeper styles like Chicago house, dub techno, obscure acid & (downtempo) EBM and feels right at home starting her DJ’s sets from scratch setting the mood and building to where the dancefloor needs to be. 

Dune has music out under her Esther Duijn alias on labels like Gegen Records, Coincidence Records, Deestricted & Expel Your Demons with many more releases to come.
 
This has not gone unnoticed by the scene, earning her a residential DJ slot at the mighty Tresor where she is also one of the hosts of New Faces, Gegen Berlin & Bauhauz in the Netherlands.
Esther also made (regular) appearances at Intergalactic FM Festival, Pornceptual, De School, Unter NYC, Freerotation Festival, Elevator Shanghai, Panorama Bar to name a few. 
In 2017 she was asked by Resident Advisor to do a tour in Australia together with Skatebård. 

Esther is running an all vinyl label & stream “Another Earth”. The stream is hosted on HÖR Berlin. 

Esther’s last name “DUIJN” means “DUNE” in old Dutch. Considering the fact Esther has been picked up internationally the artist name “ESTHER DUNE” will be used for all outgoing media.

The third release of the vinyl only label Another Earth is upon us and it's all about techno. Esther Duijn combines 2 acts together in a Split EP series which compliment each others sound. For this release Esther selected two notorious European techno producers she adores, Opuswerk and Lee Holman. On the A side Opuswerk delivers 2 deep driving techno tracks. RF Thruster basically expands from beginning to end. This constant propulsion has a deep impact on any dance floor. He drew inspiration from Jeff Mills and Planetary Assault Systems for this particular track. EmDrive starts with an atmospheric intro and morphs into one epic build up that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. On the flip side Lee Holman bangs 2 deep and firm techno grooves like there is no tomorrow. While Adaptive Optics is rough on the edges it does pay attention to small details which make the track very dynamic. Absorption Lines puts the emphasis on a warmer atmosphere. With this track you can transform anything into a pulsating hot mass, according to Esther

Release notes
Will & Ink’s latest is a remix EP that finds Bambounou and Simo Cell team up for four reworked versions of Yaleesa Halls Woodall LP. Bambounou is a Paris-based hybrid techno and house producer who has long been close to the 50 Weapons label, and Simo Cell is an experimental artist whose music finds a home on labels like Livity Sound and Wisdom Teeth. 

Up first, Bambounou goes in and turns ‘Woodall 0217’ into a menacing, stripped back track with a soft flurry of toms and freaky sine waves all underpinned by lurching, subliminal bass. Simo Cell then steps up for a version of '0224' that is much more dubbed out and for the club. It breezes along on a swaying groove with hi fidelity sound designs colouring the airwaves as the drums scurry down low. Then the pair link up for their Trance-Attitude-Mix of 'Woodall 0406'. Again the drums are weightless down below as they turn in big, sweeping loops and the slivers of silvery synth really electrify the whole thing as they flash about like fireflies. Finally, they remix the same track again but remove the drums, instead making it a paranoid and dark, spares and suggestive minimal number that is wholly from the future. These two have a very specific sound and one that sounds like little else, a solid match with Yaleesa Hall and the Will & Ink imprint, as this EP proves.

INFO
Over the last 10 years Token Records has grown steadily, both in size and stylistic breadth. The aptly-titled Momentum comes as a celebration of the close-knit family of artists amassed throughout the label’s running. The record is a fitting collaborative project, with every track on the album produced by two longstanding and well-respected artists from the label’s roster and especially commissioned for the release. This type of collaboration is intended to showcase the specific sound of the label, developed through 10 years of careful curation, as well as bringing out the individual identities of the artists involved.
 
On the development of the label’s sound, Token founder Kr!z comments, “Inigo delivered quite the statement with the first release Identify Yourself. I think identity was and still is key in the development of the label and the artists.”
 
Inigo Kennedy’s involvement in Token has been profoundly influential and spans its very existence; with three collaborative tracks on the record, it’s easy to hear his trademark cinematic sound throughout. One such offering, Amalgam, is co-produced by Kr!z himself, which is a first step for the label head into releasing his own music after years of taking the back seat, focusing instead on DJing while keeping the label ticking over and the releases coming out.
 
Token’s identity has been clarified through its curation over the years as each new artist has joined the label family. Ø [Phase] has been a staple since 2007, providing cerebral sustenance for the most discerning of listeners. To date, he has produced two successful albums and a string of notable EPs for Token, Binary Opposition being perhaps the best-known; a pulsating, mesmerising project on both sides that played a serious role in pushing the label to a larger audience. Rødhåd’s trademark composure was a similarly early addition, and although his Spomeniks release was a step aside from his own ongoing Dystopian project, he has remained an important member of the Token collective. 
 
Ctrls was a Token affiliate from early in his career, and has to date provided nine solo EPs. His class of jarring, inorganic techno adds an atypical feel to the label’s output, while Antigone’s 2015 double EP Cantor Dust paved the way for another strong artist/label relationship. This bond has resulted series of adventurous releases over past two years, with the most recent Ostinato EP esteemed as a tasteful antidote to the techno status quo. 
 
There are some artists who, although better known for long releasing careers with other respected outlets, have become important in bolstering the label’s character in particular. Oscar Mulero’s reputation as an institution of electronic music precedes him, and Tadeo has been releasing his Detroit-leaning and avant-garde sounds since 2004. Sigha’s involvement with Token came after a varied discography, his Metabolism album from this year marking an integral progression in the label’s direction, providing a firm expression of complex musicality and contemplative form.

Premiere: Maenad Veyl - Make Them Remember

Order: https://stroboscopicartefacts.com/shop/perlude-to-dybbuk-sa032/

The Tel-Aviv centered Yotam Avni officially joined forces with Stroboscopic Artefacts last year, turning in a sensual an invigorating entry for the Monad series. Thanks to his personalized fusion of esoteric and worldly sound elements, Avni immediately made a case to deliver more work to the label, and now he has done so with “Perlude to Dybbuk,” the second in a new series of S.A. releases to feature the Oblique Artefacts visual team’s distinct, elegant portrayals of scanned foliage.

As with Avni’s previous Monad contribution, the new Perlude to Dybbuk makes references – both in title and in sonic content – to the ancient Hebrew folklore of his homeland (a “dybbuk” being a kind of limbonic spirit attaching itself to the body of a living human until it has successfully reached its final destination). However, the atmospheric, rather than overt, use of these references gives this record a level of dignity and quality as well as a premonitory feeling that hovers over the proceedings.

The opening “Avka (New Life)” opens with the twin stimuli of chthonic, rolling percussion and ambience that has become a modern Stroboscopic tradition, but ever so gradually deviates from the realm of the easily anticipated. Some of the surprises to be found here are sharp, organic drum fills and sighing strings that have an uncanny vocal quality to them. By the time a surgically clipped acid synth sample comes into the mix, the track has reached a simmering level of excitement and the listener’s imagination will have license to reside in a virtual world seamlessly combining elements both ancient and futuristic.

“Dybbuk” temporarily situates listeners back in brutal modernity, with the first sounds heard being something like insistently slicing helicopter blades. Avni merely uses this as the foundation, though, for a genuinely unique construction whose shamanic beats, throttled horn and undertow of frenzied electronics combine to give the feeling of being menaced and eventually overtaken by a spirit entity. This piece shows just what Avni is capable when operating in a more aggressive, ‘post-industrial’ mode, and the result stands up with some of the best exponents of that genre.

The finale “Modern Matters” is the most readily club-friendly selection from the disc. This potent, floor-shaking and perspiration-inducing number superimposes resonant vocals from traditional Middle Eastern folk song onto this alchemical mixture of machine oil and sweat, and provides a romantic flair without resorting to naïve, touristic “ethno-techno.” Avni’s skillful dedication to counterpoint, and determination to make a finished form is more than the sum of its parts, shines through here and throughout the duration of this record.
