@ultralowvelocity is a new project formed by French DJs and producers @antoinnnnnnnne and @a_strange_wedding. Revelling in slow-burning and intensely psychedelic rhythms and atmospheres, the duo’s distinctive, shamanistic sound evokes the sensation of time being warped, whilst embracing sudden changes of sounds and feelings, from dynamic to vapourous. 

As individual artists, the two have made their impact on both the French and European stage thanks to creative output on labels such as @worst_rec and @krakzh, as well as their involvement in Saint Etienne’s @positiveeducationfest.
Kicking off their Ultra Low Velocity project in early 2021 with an EP release on Krakzh, the duo have since had a busy post-lockdown period, taking the stage at festivals and parties across France, including at the Visions and Atom Festivals, a Krakzh label night in Rennes, and soon, the upcoming fifth edition of the Positive Education Festival.

For Patterns of Perception 87, Ultra Low Velocity have shared a snapshot of their arresting current hybrid set. Although each of their performances is unique, this recording is a perfect summation of the carefully sculpted, uniquely energetic and kaleidoscopic nature of their sound. Building from a trippy, experimental-leaning start, this set moves confidently through genres, moods and time signatures, reaching its crescendo with free-wheeling, euphoric abandon.

Release Date: February 23rd, 2024
Info: 12​.​5h -60° SQ3 marks the return of Circular Square, fleshing out in EP-length the interstices of the bass-heavy and melodic club acrobatics he laid out on Crux III: 3​-​HT​-​(​xon). Proving once again his refined skill at crafting cutting edge sounds, the six playful tracks feel innately alive with the squelchy ghosts inhabiting their soundscapes.

Glassy bleeps and percussive pings permeate 4KO-L3, the introductory track, until sleek Drum & Bass propulsions take center stage and a strangely catchy twang of harmonies bounce through the stereo field. 96-EC[labs], on the other hand, one-ups the interplay of glitchy plonks, shifting lower registers and swaying breakbeats, before Oo8hmT turns this formula into a rather spartan stop-and-go of Jungle grimace.

In the second half of the EP, J-7(co)B teases with downcast string-like intersections that hint at a beauty lingering below, but a towering bassline and puncturing drums always keep the listener in suspense. D-Tom21 dons an otherworldly instrument that morphs from percussion to strings and back over a shrieking bass in proper half-step mode, while the atmospheric closer K-vHN (9P) adorns its splintered breaks with crystalline chimes, pointing at a bygone and smeared nostalgia, but always remains firmly anchored in the present.

*PREMIERE* Circular Square - Oo8hmT

French disrupter Jan Loup debuts on Nerve Collect with a new EP that channels her emotional response to events of the last year into a bold collision of dubstep, breakbeats and drum and bass. Maquis Son Sistèm as well as label co-founder Gamma Intel remix two tracks on the EP which arrives digitally on May 18th.

This EP, "In My Fury", is the sound of her channelling personal challenges into empowering music that serves as a soundtrack to a therapeutic warrior dance. 'Shanti' opens up with lurching broken beats and malfunctioning percussion against a backdrop of witchy wordless mantras. It's a dense and eerie dystopian world that leads into the more ethereal 'Oda Damo Asodi' backlit by celestial white light as ghoulish sounds and fractured drums come at you from all directions. 'Mojo Nosoa' is jittery dubstep with menacing low ends and jumbled metal sounds conveying the breakdown of a factory and 'In My Fury' is built on a heavy half-time rhythm that fizzes with caustic sounds.

First to remix is Maquis Son Sistèm aka Stefan Dubs, a sound system music innovator who tangles disparate sounds into trance-inducing rhythms. His take on 'Shanti' is a deeply hypotonic world of loopy sound detailed with sonic bacteria, alien life forms...  more

NC006 // Jan Loup - In My Fury EP

Today we introduce the single 'Plumes' extracted from the upcoming release by the same title, from the London producer https://soundcloud.com/keplrr

Known for his productions on trendsetting outlets like Control Freak Recordings and Pressure Dome where he showed his excellent take on forward thinking broken techno music.

Keplrr's creative process delves into the profound, seeking to encapsulate the sensation of falling or morphing, blurring the lines between reality and reverie. His aim is to transport listeners to a state somewhere between a dream and a trip, where the boundaries of perception dissolve, and the subconscious takes flight. This EP embodies that quest, each track a sonic voyage into the depths of consciousness.

The record will be out at the end of May!
Watch out for surprises, on the day the full Ep it will released ;)

The release samples records and cassettes to weave a unique tapestry of sound, each track stretching anticipations with an eclectic blend of strange sound effects, filter sweeps, and other alterations, showcasing a diverse palette of sound and meticulous attention to detail.

Pre-Orders: https://differentintel.bandcamp.com/album/div001-henry-greenleaf-keepsake-ep

Physical Release: 07/06/2024
Digital Release: TBA

Fresh off the press this release comes on 12”, 180g white label vinyl in black disco sleeves.

‘Keepsake’ introduces listeners to the record with an energetic blend of grungy, ethereal elements, showcasing Henry’s artistic flair. The track seamlessly intertwines dreamlike atmospheres with raw textures, contrasting these layers with intense drum-driven drama, tying it all together to offer a preview of the musical landscape set to define the entirety of the record.

The enigmatic soundscape of ‘Cafe Boogaloo’ carefully warps an unmistakable garage arrangement into an eclectic and hypnotic journey. As the track progresses it embraces the unconventional, introducing a disjointed groove that gradually sinks you further and further into it, defying categorisation and serving as a testament to the creative possibilities within electronic music.

‘Get The Hell Out’ is a formidable force of relentless rhythms that disregard all agreements. The integration of intense drum work with melancholic undertones opposes listeners as it bulldozes along, emerging not only as a force that invites exploration, but also as one that commands your attention - capturing the essence of its title.

In its final notes, ‘Cafe Stalker’ prioritises sound design over club functionality in order to instill a feeling of unease and suspense, crafting an atmosphere of palpable tension and lurking dread. The deliberate pace of the track trudges along, deftly building tension until it inevitably brings the record to a grinding halt.

The digital bonus offers a deconstructed version of ‘Get The Hell Out’ through a 2-step rendition, reminiscent of the iconic days of Big Apple Records and its influence. This interpretation remains faithful to the original composition’s substance and rhythm, merging the nostalgia of early rave culture with Henry’s modern-day touch.

Keepsake EP

DIV001 - Henry Greenleaf - Keepsake EP

Aarhus’ @salo_cin aka half of Circuit900 makes his solo debut on Flippen Bits with four spectacular drum-driven party starters and an intriguing half time stepper remix by Sobolik.

Salo Cin’s original productions uncannily balance sweaty club vibes respiration and climate controlled big-room aspiration, combining heavy hitting percussion with meticulous sound design.

Opener Alpine Bed kicks off the EP ferociously with wobbling sub basses, vocal chops and a beautifully effected percussion hook.
Clock In keeps the energy up with a psychedelic synth lead, and vocals announcing the beginning and end of the shift, while OKO goes all out with tumbling FX dancing around a solid riddim groove. Free Fall sounds just like the name suggests: a rollercoaster ride of a rhythm track with trippy sound design and precise drums. New York’s Sobolik flips Clock In into a half time stepper in their tripped out Commuter Dub remix with added dub FX and micro melodies.

Bluepanther - Myako invite Antoine

"Pushing the borders to the core, in between cosmic trance, hollow ambient and industrial reminiscences, everything tends to an unholly horizon, drown in myst, lightened by the fuel of late-day parties, a recipe rarely seen before for hardcore dreamers of all around the void."

Antoine (@antoinnnnnnnne) might be discreet, but he's one of the fiercest contributors in France's electronic musical scene. Co-head of the infamous Positive Education Festival (@positiveeducationfest) in Saint-Etienne and Worst Records (@worst_rec), relentless believer in possible alt-futures in his kind, he also provides an uncompromised vision of things throughout his own production.
