As an introduction to their forthcoming “Novox 10” anthology, Skyshaker shares their thoughts on the current state of ballroom alongside two members of the international community. With the blessing of fellow SVBKVLT stalwart Hyph11E, her cavernous “Escapism” track serves as the backdrop of a startling confrontation between three international members of the queer ballroom community.

Mexico’s Lenchanter Medussa infiltrates the next evolution of “Escapism” with a disembodied Spanish-language taunt that literally reaches critical mass. Skyshaker’s “Vemanei Transmission 072720” is a sobering moral reckoning with unspoken violence and power dynamics underneath the glamour and theatricality often associated with the young queer subculture. Tokyo’s Chris Eclipse closes the release with a classic New York chant with an African prince-inspired music video to match.

In Sky’s own words, “Ballroom is at yet another crossroads in which they have to decide how much to embrace the corporate America that now smells money on them. Not everyone is okay with the way they are being observed, not everyone is okay with that scent.”

'Wintermute' is a tribute to the Artificial Intelligence in William Gibson's masterpiece 'Neuromancer'. This being is half of a super-AI, far more intelligent than humans, and was therefore constrained in what it can do. Software barriers block its ability to make long term plans and maintain a stable identity. Its other half is Neuromancer, an AI capable of compiling personalities to pieces of code. Wintermute's main desire is to merge itself with Neuromancer, despite the shackles imposed on it.

This piece represents the union of both AI. Wintermute is characterised by an ambient introduction, where it shapeshifts between timbres where no clear structure exists. When it's freed and starts merging with Neuromancer, the organised being tries to resist the fusion, fearing losing its own personality constructed from all its years in isolation. Neuromancer is represented by a clear and predictable rhythm, which keeps struggling against the cold ambience of Wintermute. As the track progresses, both AIs learn how to live together, where ambience and rhythm give space to peaceful harmony.

This track was first released as a reward for the crowdfunding for F O C, a self-organised art centre in Barcelona, where the Jokkoo collective and other great art organizations have their headquarters. As this crowdfunding is over, I wanted to share with you all this track, now with a new mastering. The cover is done by Zizi Ramires, a super talented artist who also happens to be my sister. For me, the weight of the rock, sitting on top of a calm field strengthens the previously described relationship, now through a natural and organic representation.

Petr Bursa is a waxing moon in the Prague experimental electronic scene. His debut EP Heart's Halo lures the listener into an eerie, fog-cloaked landscape, drawing us with a siren-like spell, a beckoning from the sonorous darkness that brings a momentary bewilderment only to wash it away in rushes of tenderness and awe. An ephemeral, yet pressing whisper guides the listener through a liminal journey into the whirl of dizzyingly looped synthesizers, erupting into vocals as tempestuous as frail. The image of being swallowed by mists and swayed by stormy seas is not a mere poetic association, but comprises the very core of Bursa's synaesthetic imaginary. It is an image both frightening and familiar, as universal as it is intimate, expressing sharply the intense reality of a windswept present that feels increasingly impossible to navigate. Bursa’s debut offers us a frosty, melodic consolation that the hardships of self-discovery are shared, and that while the planes of waves appear endless, we never sail them alone.

☆IRL ☆ (air-core set)
@bel_irl @irl_333
Je m’appelle IRL. Ca veut dire « In Real Life », et en français « dans la vraie vie ».
C’est comme ça qu’on désigne le monde physique depuis un espace virtuel, quelque chose comme le nom de domaine de la réalité.
Je fais de la musique entre deux mondes, celui où je me promène en silence, que j’observe pour y trouver quelque chose à raconter, et celui où j’enregistre, où je duplique, où je coupe, où j’archive, où je sauvegarde, où je partage.
Je fais des chansons pour passer de l’un à l’autre, pour que tout tienne ensemble, le dedans et le dehors, les instants et les traces.
