…we come alive in the basement, we come alive...”

After releasing an EP, "Angeltribe" on London label TT in 2020, and "Vorphic Skin" on Toothgrinder Press in 2023, Kat Nzingha's debut album "Grind" will be released on AngeltribeXTL in May of 2023. Based in Philadelphia, Kat Nzingha is a multidisciplinary artist that explores experimentations with abstruse textures. By combining their sculptural works with heavy low-end frequencies and celebratory tones they create blissfully cryptic sonic materials that are the extended bodies of modified objects of which they consistently fabricate.

∎ The original idea behind our third compilation, which is called „SWINE WORLD 003“, is based on the collaboration and exploration of new sounds. Every track is a work of two or three artists, that have never cooperated before. We wanted to create a clash of many different styles and approaches.

➜ In the end, we managed to fuse 25 artists, that have created 11 songs.

Stream "Gata Exotika" by two wonderful artists @mantrisnikkita and @comechelet + pre-order via Bandcamp: https://swinedaily.bandcamp.com/album/swine-world-003

Merlin Modulaw's latest project, ‚Lost & Found‘, is a EP that spans six carefully crafted tracks, pushing the boundaries of contemporary club music with a blend of genres and textures. The release highlights Modulaw’s unique production style, combining slower grooves, raw club sounds, and sharp, metallic textures to create a sound both gritty and immersive. Among the standout features of the EP are a powerful collaboration with Estoc and innovative remixes by genre-blending artists Manuka Honey and Xzavier Stone, each adding their distinct touch to the project.
