Christian Kroupa // Alleged Witches

… were you madly in love into something and you immediately knew it’s going to last forever? “How long is forever? Sometimes just one second.”
Hailing from the sleepy town of Logatec, Slovenia, this is exactly what happened to Christian in the summer of 2008, while hanging at some drum and bass party, with no idea he is about to enter an unexplored pathway.

The pathway is not so unexplored anymore. In 2013, Christian surprised the Slovenian music scene with his original approach to dark ambient music, while he was performing on the Radio Študent’s Club Marathon tour.

Since then, he proved his skills and innovation as a participant at the Red Bull Music Academy, performing on different festival stages (like Sónar in Barcelona, Dimensions in Pula, EMAF in Tokyo), as well as in various clubs from Belgrade to London, from Warsaw to Venice. He is currently exploring more electro, EBM, wave and similiar electronic music derivates, forming a strong partnership with Le Chocolat Noir and marking their debute vinyl + digital release, on a freshly established KRI record label, from Ljubljana, with Mannequin Records boss Alessandro Adriani on the remix duty. 

As well as being featured on Osàre! Editions and Marguerite Records, though under a new name of Black Dot. With more exciting news just around the corner. But on the other hand, Christian is also keeping an eye on house, techno music, while being no stranger to industrial or experimental sounds, making appearances on the legendary R&S records, Fabric 90 Mix compilation, Meda Fury, his own Greyhound Days (now defunct), Dimensions Recordings, and most recently an album for Natural Sciences with his alter ego, Alleged Witches. 

A project based for dictating the dance floor, with a tribal vibe drum workout, industrial sounds and also luring you into its deep ritualistic feel. In the meantime, he's also curating Flash Forward radio show, on the oldest student radio in Europe, Radio Študent from Ljubljana.

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

bijū arose from the need to explore the intersection of machine and body, the need to blur the boundaries between dehumanized electronic sound and the natural environment. Its selection is a constant search between minimalist and dense, dynamic and slow, sharp and blurry sounds. Inspired by the vibration of synthesizers enriched by echoes emanating from the abyss, transforms the soundscape into a psychedelic spectacle.

Close your eyes and merge into Benedikt Frey’s 'Fastlane'. Imagine sitting in the driver’s seat of a an automobile, one with exceptional horsepower and torque, as you stare out the windshield at the red light, warping in fata-morgana a mile down the road. It’s a straight-away, a black top with two lanes, and against your better judgment you decide to floor the gas. No hesitation in your muscle, your ankle or the ball of your foot, which you now realize is some kind of universal pivot, the first point of contact fusing your body with the will of machine. In this moment you’re in awe that you, a human, an animal, grew from pond scum into something so advanced as to engineer this thing, a mechanical beast capable of overwhelming power and exhilaration. But you also feel a seductive dread, an outside force diverting you from caution toward a dangling carrot of curiosity, asking yourself, ‘How far can I take this thing?’ The dread, now a constant, is numbed, equalized by an adverse intoxicating gratification. You feel both sensations in real time, however, rather than take responsibility for yourself, friends, family and innocent bystanders, you cement your foot to the floor and lean your head back. Noise around you fades to mute. Smell the benzene-scented air, feel the wind on your face, the menacing vibration of the vessel you control beneath you and every grain of asphalt under its tires. This mile has now lasted an eternity and you’ve left your body for some objective view, as if watching climax of a film. Past the point of no return, you embrace abandon and lean into fate. The film becomes slow motion, a crawling pace so mesmerizing you convince yourself of an option to eject yourself from this madness, but as you finally let go of your last morsel of fear, you run the red light head-on into the nucleus of a fantastic glistening sculpture of torn metal, glass, oil, broken dreams and heartache. 'Fastlane' may be just drum machines and synthesizers if you’re timid, but listen harder and know the catastrophic reality of existence, a wreckage so gruesome we dare not rubberneck, but afterall it is our nature to stare.

ROBI INSINNA – HARD WORK [INDUSTRIA]
Format: Vinyl
Cat No: IND001

Hard Work is the first release on Industria, Robi Insinna’s brand new project label.

Back in 2001 Robi Insinna founded the seminal Relish label in direct response to a thendominant sound in club music. Its catalogue is as vast as it is varied and foreshadowing the music he'd go on to make himself under Headman/Manhead. Fast forward to 2018 and after more than a decade he's on the move again launching new Project label, Industria with 'not quite an album, not quite an EP, Hard Work. Robi felt there was no reason to split projects the way he did with his aliases and as such the debut will be released under Robi's own name.

Industria will be focused more on vinyl releases, but not solely vinyl. The project will encompass all area's of Robi's work and ties together elements of his art and visual design projects. This release is limited to 200 copies, 50 of them will feature a special Artwork, that will be sold in
selected places.

Merging Robi's disco leanings with an opiate smooth, stoned groove the title track Hard Work opens proceedings and heads immediately for the dancefloor dragging its hushed vocals and skewed guitar line kicking and screaming with it. The dub rolls in next further stretching and twisting the guitar and giving the rhythm more space to swing. It most of all draws from the sense of outsider-disco fun, with the sound of stuttering percussion, a wry smile, and a knowing wink running throughout. Düsseldorf Krautrockers Die Wilde Jagd take over remix duties on the third track of the A side and cast Hard Work off into unfamiliar and experimental territory, using bright synth splashes,
squashed vocal samples and a pulsing rhythm to wrestle the groove and growling sense of menace out of the track.
Side 2 kicks things off with Some Believe coming to life with arpeggio'd synth shapes and brutish drums. The overall feel, however, suggests considerable care and attention has been paid to make it sound this way. There's clearly an uncommon musicality at play here to make something this complex feel so simple. The BPM drops next on The Kiss but from the offset, there's enough funk and thrust in the
motorised synth line to get bodies gently grooving without the beauty getting lost in the slower
loop. A dramatic bass leads and a xylophone playing a nervous but euphoric melody follows. It's glassy mallets pinging atop the warm electronics creating a fresh groove. Closing track Oct17 rounds off the record and puts an ever more personal spin on retro analogue
sounds with synths and drummachines . A razor-sharp snare fires against the bassline and what sounds like a sliced vocal loop before these elements settle into a more measured thrust with the
undulating synth tones offset by funkier ingredients. This is a record that doesn't have its eyes fixed on past glories but references all the element that made Robi's previous work so special. Hard Work sounds like it's here to freshen up 2018. It's music that leaves scorch marks and smoulders. It is the sound of our very own, very recent times.

Side A:
1. Hard Work
2. Hard Work Dub
