Julek ploski’s ‘Give up Channel’ is on mappa. It’s the follow-up to the Poland-based FL Studio demon’s ‘Hotel *****’, released via Orange Milk in 2023.

It’s an album that wrestles against a shadow self. It’s about shelter from the hailstorm of unwanted memories and guilt pangs and serrated blades of thought. It’s about clinging on to some semblance of hope, knuckles taut and teeth gritted.

The fragmented drift of opener ‘Naysayer’ flows forward like an anxious daydream, pad eddies and piano plinks anchored by Trapaholics drops and bursts of guaracha drums. It’s a mess of mind: the bleakness of ‘Truth’ is punctuated by gun cocking and bullet spray and sudden jester-like blasts of unhinged, schizo-whimsical melody. An internal war without a clear winner.

Shame snakes through this music like venom through an emaciated body. Blue screenlight in a dark bedroom, pulsating temples, lockjaw. ‘Titanic’ hits like the thrashing resistance of a being built for love grappling against the scalding vengefulness it’s forced to contend with, the song’s abstracted rave synths giving way to warped voices and spiralling derangement. ‘Hollywood’ is a scarred battleground, the martial bludgeoning of a tightly wound hardstyle stomp blistering and shredding a delicate piano-and-string arrangement.

This music is about deep solitude, a meditation on simmering, slow-marinating hatred. But it’s ultimately about prevailing. It doesn’t revel in negativity, it roils and twists and writhes against it. Dots of light in oppressive darkness. Clarity and purpose against chaos and filth. It’s a struggle worth waging.

"It's like I've lost control of my left foot. It just won't stop tapping. And my neck! It hasn't moved this much since Ministry at Lolla '92!"

"Is that 10/8? Or 5/4? It must be 10/8 right? Or maybe 10/4? That's it, its 10/4. Gotta be. No, don't shake your head at me, my great grandmother studied piano at the Conservatory of Lyon. I know these things. My father was a musician too. He spent the years before my birth on a tour of the east coast with his band. He once told me..."

"Is that Chemical Brothers? Or the Prodigy? That technical electronical music stuff... I'm an old-school rocker, you know that. Doobie Brothers, Steely Dan... but that Prodigy, he had some hits in my college days! What was it? 'I am the fire man?' Something..."

These are just a few accounts from the bewildered yet astonished old-timers I passed by while blaring Govlink's new EP MASTER OF CEREMONIES in Tallahassee's historic midtown. The sound system belonging to my 2013 Hyundai Elantra is far from state-of-the-art, but even so, tracks like "Beam Trace Lagomorph" and "punchingdownintheair" grace my stereo with a swagger and a swank that can't be ignored. Even if you're sick and tired of club music, tasteless, or old, you'll find something — or a lot of somethings — in this little release to marvel at. Heather's effortless blending of all things ELECTRONIC and COMPUTER hasn't failed, not even once, to draw me in and keep me there. Do yourself a favor, and buy five copies of this album. Or ten. Right now. Make it a hundred actually. Go ahead. Or I'll find you...
