Alex from Lurid Music:

'Aggelos first approached Lurid Music with the idea for this project a few months ago. We agreed on one condition, that all proceeds be donated to refugee causes, like we did with his Black Sea EP which supported the Syrian refugee crisis. When Russia invaded Ukraine, we decided our focus had to be helping the Ukrainian refugees who were forced to leave their homes in search of safe havens abroad.

We discussed this with most contributors to the project and the consensus was that donations should strictly go to humanitarian groups and not any armament funds. There were also some thoughts about helping conflict-affected peoples in other parts of the world but we decided it was too much to tackle for a relatively small project like this one.

Therefore, donations stemming from the sales of this release will be distributed to the following humanitarian groups currently active in Ukraine or neighboring countries welcoming refugees:

- International Medical Corps: internationalmedicalcorps.org/emergency-…n-ukraine/
- Urgent Action Fund for Women’s Human Rights - Ukraine Urgent Response Fund: urgentactionfund.org
- Polish Humanitarian Action: www.pah.org.pl/en/donate/
- World Central Kitchen: wck.org/relief/activation-chefs-for-ukraine

We are thankful for their meticulous work, especially to Dietrich for enlisting his fellow engineers to help with the massive remix load, 44 tracks are definitely too much for one person to listen to in such a short span.

Premiere: Timothy J. Fairplay - Yellow Headlights V2 [666004]

Head hazy, eyes blurred; even the sliver of light creeping through the curtain feels invasive, total darkness is needed. Memories? What memories? Any recollection of the evening before had been lost in a smog of shame and regret, at least for now. The fragments would slowly become clearer as Sunday unravelled, they'd unveil themselves whether invited to or not; a story being pieced back together chapter by chapter, though some parts would be better left to the imagination...

French artist Cuften has been flying the flag for a new generation of rave producers in the country over the last five years. Connecting the dots between IDM, hardcore, techno and electro, his analog sound pays homage to the 90s heyday, when these sounds reigned supreme, whilst keeping his eyes firmly on the future. With EPs for Tripalium, Minimum Syndicat and rave veteran Marc Acardipane's Planet Phuture under his belt, he now makes his mark on Astropolis Records with Animal Suicide, a five-track release packed with his trademark blend of future-facing old school techno, that comes backed by remixes from Legowelt and Cate Hortl.

Welcome to the free and the wild. Free Range is Ernestas Sadau and DKA co-founder Matt Weiner, and theirs is a uniquely dynamic and textured brew of mutant beat, acid industrial, slow psy-hop and hauntological EBM, churning and percolating with equal doses of the primordial and the futuristic. Wild Life being somewhat of an impressionistic concept album, the imagery here is animal-focused, but drawing on a kingdom more far-ranging and uncannily peculiar than anything we’ve been exposed to IRL: imagery invoked includes animorphs on the moon and prehistoric amphibians at the bus stop, or lizards playing guitars connected via usb directly to the sun and powered by pure helium, hacktivist jaguars in mangy gamer chairs wearing paper sunglasses, or just regular old wooly mammoths reemerging from the blacktop.

Wild Life’s nine pieces make a consistently heavy program of thud and thonk that somehow manages to cultivate plenty of stylistic contrast, strikingly organic and wildly imaginative. Album-oriented listeners are treated to a thematic coherency that spans the 4/4 driving and sometimes chugging prog-house gurgle of “Prokofiev’s Dog” and the non-Burner desert acid psychedelia of “Lizards on the Sun” and still has room for the sublime in “Panda Mick”, a gorgeous emotive slice of electronica that conjures something between The Knife and Enya. This adventurous breadth to the material that confidently justifies the album format is a striking aspect to all three Free Range records, but has never been more pronounced than now, with an arc spanning the chasm between the haunted space kraut of “Jaguar Is Waiting” to “Goat In The Shell” with its CGI-cinematic d’n’b—think cyber heist scenario featuring the Word paperclip help avatar adorned in a raved up tracksuit. From primordial germ to synthetic multi-cerebellum’d synthetic being, the evolutionary arc on display in Wild Life is a truly special offering DKA is honored to present to its dedicated listeners human and animal alike.

Tracklist:

1. Worms
2. Rats On Coke
3. Jaguar Is Waiting
4. Marsh Of The Pangolins
5. Lizards On The Sun 
6. Prokofiev's Dog
7. Panda Mick
8. Goat In The Shell

King Ende Shneafliet - Dimension Mix 01
Artificial Dance 2018
AD004

Having previously released some rare solo material from Ende Shneafliet member Hanjo Erkamp AKA Dr. C. Stein, Artificial Dance is now serving up something special from the cult Dutch minimal wave band’s lesser-known side project, King Ende Shneafliet.

Adding “King” to their name in honour of original dub maestro King Tubby, King Ende Shneafliet produced far more experimental and out-there material than their better-known big brother. They released their first cassette, Dimension Mix Chapter I in 1981 via cult label Trumpett, with batches of follow-up material trickling out on various obscure tapes and later CD-Rs up to the year 2000.

Artificial Dance’s first dip into the Dimension Mix archives – a second vinyl volume will follow later in the year – features selections from Chapter II (1999), which was originally recorded between 1981 and ’88. The magical, mind-altering music is raw, lo-fi, spaced-out and forward-thinking, combining effects-laden, sample-heavy sound collages and reverberating ambient soundscapes with pulsating proto-electro jams, moody minimal wave instrumentals and kosmiche-influenced throw-downs. It effectively joins the dots between early-80s, DIY electronic exploration and dub soundsystem culture.
