Pain Management welcomes London cult favourite DJ ojo, who arrives on the label with a hazy three tracker of trademark nether zone system music. On his most dubbed out full length to date, ojo span’s the full emotive spectrum of dub sonics with a range of both the eerie and more tender expansions of low end atmospherics, the resulting 12” equally suited for the club and the journey home alike.

‘Tongue Tied’ opens the record, a lysergic offering from the darker edges of dub music. A slippery fugue-state hit of narco-ambience built around a crooning, intelligible vocal refrain and chest shot sub weight. A real nightfall system pusher built to simmer in the early hours. It kicks off the EP on an amorphous, hypnotic note that sustains throughout.‘Oil Dub’ sinks deeper into the fog, melodic kinesis and expansive delays upholding an underworld of feedbacked percussion and tongue in cheek sub motion; a seven minute sound bath of ambiguous dub ASMR.

The B-side balances out the darker strains found on its counterpart with an overtly tender digidub closer. Clocking in at almost ten minutes long ‘Cloud Suck’ is a nebulous bliss of perpetually ascending late-summer warmth. The kind of liminal dream-state embrace that you wish would never end. True to the name, it evokes tender, dusk and dawn hued moments, a quiet ride-home flash of introspection on the way to or from some pursuit of meaning. Pain Management essential right here.

Limited run of 200 hand-stamped 12” records available now.

New York City / Berlin — Appendix.files presents xochicuicatl, a 5-track collection of raw ambient excavations and subversive emotional fragments from secret getii. Recorded in NYC in the spring of 2023, the EP wanders through dream-smeared cityscapes and back again, channeling the hazy comedown of overstimulation into abstract, cathartic form.

This is ambient not as background, but aftermath — think LSD flashbacks in a graffiti-soaked alley, suddenly grounded by the warmth of a friend’s couch and a slow-burning existential clarity. xochicuicatl operates somewhere between the debris of club culture and the softness of shared space. Each track teeters between euphoria and melancholia, thick with distortion, delay, and heart. 

Across its 30-minute runtime, secret getii shapes textures that hum with emotional interference:
rough-edged tones that distort as they soothe, melodic loops that spiral inward, voices half-buried beneath noise and reverb. The titles alone—half revolution, no revolution, i think i’m a drug dealer now, everyone is a supermodel—read like private transmissions, at once ironic, sincere, and a little unhinged.

Dedicated to Noel Flores, Lazaro Rodriguez, and Robert “Ready Freddy” Jennings, xochicuicatl is both personal document and shared code—intimate, unresolved, and entirely its own.
