Sine Buyuka has found a perfect remedy for a gloomy Monday. Fireplace videos, her dog and fresh ginger tea feature in the London-based Circassian-Turkish producer's R&R routine, but today it's soundtracked by her own soothing blend of ambient sonics from across the world.

Sine wears many different hats: she's a DJ, label owner of Injazero, ex-music journalist, radio host, Guildhall School of Music and Drama graduate and a producer, the latter of which she's now doing under the moniker Sinemis.

This new project recently came to life with the release of Dua, an album that came at a life-changing time for Sine. Last year she began feeling unwell, but at the time her symptoms weren't diagnosable and gradually they worsened, resulting in her being admitted to A&E whilst visiting her family in Turkey. She eventually had surgery and has been on the road to physical and emotional recovery this year, a period that has had a profound affect on her musical output.

Drawing inspiration from Sufi music - traditional ritualistic music that are used to accompany ancient sema ceremonies native to her home of Turkey - the compositions are meditative and gentle, brought into the contemporary sphere by electronic soundscapes, ambient atmospheres and field recordings. 

To celebrate the release of the record, she offers up a mix of ambient vibrations plucked from Turkey, the Middle East, North and East Africa and the West...

"An enchanting new album." - The Ransom Note 

Heinali is the alias of self-taught composer and sound-designer Oleg Shpudeiko from Ukraine. Now well established under the name he brings along his latest full length ‘Iridescent’ due for release on October 12th on Injazero Records. 

Having garnered rapturous responses to his earlier output and last year’s ‘Anthem’ Oleg continues to push the boundaries and experiment with altering mood and atmospheres of any space - with abstract yet deeply personal transmissions of ambient synthesiser work and subaqueous, minimal techno contortions. 

‘Iridescent’ consists of fragments of studio improvisation sessions recorded in 2016 and 2017, some of them recorded in one unedited take on a modular system and some layered and later morphed into compositions. As the title suggests Heinali crafts shimmering, incandescent portraits, rich in his unique characteristics and compositional liberty. 

Apart from the “musical sculptures,” that represent the bulk of this LP, Oleg was interested in the exploration of polyphonic capabilities of the modular system. ‘Rainbow Folding’, a loose homage to Terry Riley’s 'A Rainbow In Curved Air,' features an interplay of several independent, but distinct voices and their processed shadows — ‘ghost voices’. In 'Shadow Invention’ eerie atmospherics steal the spotlight and dominate the composition, ending in a cacophony of the ‘ghost voices’. 

Oleg says of the album, “it’s a kind of studio dairy. A reflection on the development of my relations with the hardware instruments and exploration of them as channelling vessels for my experiences and ideas.” 

“One can think of Iridescent’ as ‘musical sculpture’ analogy — when the body of music stays the same, but its surface is flickering with various colours over time — sometimes in a subtle manner, sometimes loud and clear. Or it can be understood in the context of various colours of polyphony, or as a liminal condition of the colour as if it’s being ‘stuck’ in the mist of twilight zone between neighbouring colour-states, so it can’t become a particular colour and is in a flickering kaleidoscopic state.” 

‘Iridescent’ bares Oleg’s style of sonic storytelling and austere, otherworldly textural embellishments that bring to mind Ben Frost, Akira Yamaoka, and Oneohtrix Point Never but also plants the seed for much more club ready electro. ‘Starling Reprise I’ is a scorching piece of ambient techno that conjures Four Tet, LTO and Susumu Yokota’s blissful, kaleidoscopic synth work whilst ‘Starling Reprise II’ retains the frosty, steely ambience that has become Heinali’s calling card.

Lullaby

'Fear Of Floating' is the second single from Australian-born, Liverpool-based composer, saxophonist and founder of Immix Ensemble, Daniel Thorne. The track, taken from Daniel's solo debut 'Lines of Sight', is a grand, transposing soundscape that places Daniel’s saxophone front-and-centre, allowing the abstract beauty of his meandering and contorting melody to breathe, amongst the chaotic backdrop of spiralling undulating effects. 'Fear Of Floating' perfectly encapsulates the atmosphere of the record; equal parts magnificent, unnerving, mind-bending and deeply satisfying.     
 
"Although the album wasn't written to follow a specific narrative, I felt it should have the feeling of a journey, leaving a place of chaos and noise and arriving somewhere both serene and unfamiliar. As the final track on the album, I wanted 'Fear of Floating' to be to be the opposite of the album’s beginning ('From Inside, Looking Out') by being much sparser, eschewing large dense textures and instead focusing on a single melodic 'voice' that gets bashed about by its surroundings, before finally washing up somewhere peaceful and alone." — Daniel Thorne
 
Praise for Lines Of Sight, out March 15th on Erased Tapes:
 
“Dizzying compositions that thrive on chaos and control.” Self-titled  

“Analogue and digital, improvisatory and programmed, tactile and gaseous, this ripples between worlds.” DJ Mag
 
Deeply moving, full of otherworldly beauty and rapture, the album is alive, throbbing like a circulatory system, colourful and glowing. It literally dazzles – effectively capturing what the birth (or death) of a planet might sound like.

Every strand is fresh, vital and purposeful. The description ‘seamless’ might suggest a smooth, bland fusion, but here elements overlap in intermittent, undulating layers of mesh. Avant-garde, noise, electronics, ecclesiastical, classical and a touch of jazz come together, each occupying their own space while acquiescing with the whole.
