SousTraitance Label, one of the many representatives of Lyon's scene resurfaces from the depths with Masterbep'. The third installment in their compilation series dances on the fringe of the current yet futuristic club scene, echoing the eerie beauty of organic sounds emanating from reptilian, xenomorphic entities.

Featuring as usual up-and-coming French and international Producers (Trois-Quarts Taxi System, Rxex, Smogo, Anta Doma, Orchid, Homelander, Marmo), this seven-track CD fuses elements of halftime DnB, entrancing psychedelic techno, gravity-defying dub uk, nebulous IDM and razor-sharp breakbeats. Each track feels like it has been meticulously nurtured in amniotic fluid, infused with rhythms carrying an acidic edge - a testament to the profound influence of modern electronic music on the mind.

The Natron mirror of water populates the imagination with its enigmatic deep red color and its placid and dark surface, guardian of secrets, seemingly quiet.
From its shores, majestic mountains can be glimpsed towering against the sky.
Its supernatural appearance that not even the most solid scientific reasoning can drive away.
A peculiar color gradation resulted from the accumulation of sodium, very high temperatures and alkaline springs, which trigger a calcification process that no body or species can escape.
Once permeated, it remains there forever and becomes part of it: liquid and solid, fleeting and permanent, ethereal and evanescent.

"Natron VA001" is the Stagno Records’ genesis: an immersive voyage through this crimson expanse. It is a powerful, commanding force, like a tempestuous storm, yet also delicate and otherworldly.
Six incandescent tracks from a meticulous selection of talented producers around.
Maquis Son Sistèm, K.O.P. 32, Marmo, Atoloi, Plants Army Revolver, and CP1: in this impalpable journey they push the boundaries of uptempo and half-beat, with their pulsating basses echoing the raw energy of the crimson landscape. Fearless and immersive, these soundscapes are infused with techno overtones, transporting us into a world of sci-fi and aprioristic scenarios.

Natron (Previews) [SNVA001]

Head-snapping DnB percussions embedded in spacious sound design characterise @3rd-space‘s upcoming release ‘dot points’ on @absorb-label. With rhythm building as lyrical prose, the producer and live act takes a cultivated detour from drone, back to where his exploration into neo-classical experimentalism once began.

The atmosphere has overheated to more than 1,800° Fahrenheit. The shell is still thinning and the ocean is expanding. From Earth, it looks like a world of dark gas, evidence of the existence of remote and subterranean depths with planetary powers.
Its vertices orbit a yellow dwarf, similar to the Sun. It's seven hundred light-years distant and located in the constellation of the Dragon.
It’s a wandering cosmic predator: Tres now travels at the speed of sound and is faster than light; such a high temperature obeys no rules.
Its particles move wildly, the dark atmosphere becomes blinding.

The atmosphere has overheated to more than 1,800° Fahrenheit. The shell is still thinning and the ocean is expanding. From Earth, it looks like a world of dark gas, evidence of the existence of remote and subterranean depths with planetary powers.
Its vertices orbit a yellow dwarf, similar to the Sun. It's seven hundred light-years distant and located in the constellation of the Dragon.
It’s a wandering cosmic predator: Tres now travels at the speed of sound and is faster than light; such a high temperature obeys no rules.
Its particles move wildly, the dark atmosphere becomes blinding.

Yet out of this chaos, a profound transformation emerges: Formant Value, Property, Sun Genam, Bijū, CP1, Øbsidiaan, Aerae, and Aitch calcify the foundations and searing heat, giving birth to new elements and converging with the primordial pulse of dissolved tribal rhythms and the call of surreal psy meltdowns, forging new waves in space.
It’s time for a new genesis, having only just begun but destined to last through time for much longer.

This mood, created by the talented producer Not Mass, is special for its thick, lingering fog of textures that rhythmically seep through the percussion. "Hurts Worse" delivers a persistent taste of the dark side of this compilation.
