RECONSTRVCT XXV TICKETS: http://tinyurl.com/h8ea3rk

They don’t come any more independent and underground than Reconstrvct. Brooklyn’s mecca of anglophiles and bass music aficionados celebrates a big accomplishment at the end of the month – its twenty fifth gathering. Over the five years, the Reconstrvct formula hasn’t changed much and has now proven to be an axiom in the New York’s underground:

(Obscure warehouse location + impeccable sound system rig + a few of the most current names in the UK bass music scene ± one behind the scenes influencer + a couple hundred die-hard music fans) – (corporate sponsorship + bullshit) x 25 = RECONSTRVCT
Let’s do the math again – May 28th, 5 DJs from the legendary IDLE Hands family and 1 MC Rider Shafique joining from Bristol, 1 sound killa İskeletor from Istanbul, 3 local talents on support. $40. And you. You are the one that counts the most.

If you’ve been to the last Reconstrvct with KEMAΛ of Berceuse Heroique. You know what we’re talking about. If you’re broke and would like to get free entry on May 28th, leave a comment for us on SoundCloud, and we’ll sort two of you out.

SHADOWS & PROPHECIES

Amos’ Flat is a three part album by VASE in collaboration with Opal Tapes & INDEX:Records: an odyssey of sonic manoeuvres through ambient, bass and IDM. This trilogy reveals VASE dissecting compositions down to sparse rhythmic explorations, disruptive power shifts and nebulous bass bliss.

Amos’ Flat: Room 1 will be sculpted into the physical form of a 12” vinyl record, released by INDEX:Records, followed by Opal Tapes reeling out Room 1 & 2 on double Cassette Tape. 

Room 3 transcends into the digital, where VASE passes the brush to fellow artists, to rework into their own decorative pieces. Featured artists for Room 3 include Basic house, Fis, Katsunori Sawa, Shelley Parker and PYUR

PREMIERE: VASE - Resolve (Index Records/Opal Tapes)

Travelling across the globe is the ultimate way to brighten your imagination and widen your knowledge about the shape of things. Even a travel diary provide the close sense to its reader; the adjoining experience could be really mind-transferring if the diary is written in universal language. Four years after ‘Temnoe Poznaetsya Chernim’, Klammklang presents another report of @kptransmission's inner pilgrimage.

Karina Kazaryan has collected the sonic material for ‘Beatrice’ while exploring Armenia, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan and Ukraine, as well as some of Russia's non-obvious destinations. Every day of this wayfaring bore a special significance to the musician, not only through the evocation of memories and insights, but also in conjunction with edifying and effortful books read and films watched (hint: Walerian Borowczyk) during the passages between points. Akin to these inspirations, ‘Beatrice’ takes its stand: the attempt of purest and highest perception of mortals’ desires and sensations, connecting them to the ‘Outer World’.

Making her music spiritual yet up-to-date and challenging, KP Transmission manages to keep this sonic flux as carnal as never before. From erratic layers of ‘Spell’ and proto-amen breaks of 'Eerie V2' to neurotic pulse of ‘Wolf Eyelash’ the album forcloses the genre-conventional “dark night of the soul”-esque vibe with rhythm as its key element. Through the metal clashes, church choir samples and beat-making inclusions of Zeena LaVey’s voice (in ‘Kariades’), ‘Beatrice’ still occurs as voice of trust and ardour; even Dante’s quest for Heavens sometimes was ominous, but had reached its virtuous end.

Beatrice

KP Transmission – Beatrice (from Klamm24)

Rainer Veil are Liam Morley and Dan Valentine, two friends who met while studying contemporary music in the north of England. The pair began improvising and making drones in a dark basement before incorporating a broader palette and forming Rainer Veil as an ongoing concern last year. ‘Struck’ is their first EP and debut for Modern Love, following an appearance at the label Boiler Room takeover in August 2012.
The ‘Struck’ EP incorporates recordings made over the last year and extends from the rewired Jungle ruckus of the title track to the more emotive formation of ‘Wade In’ and ‘Bala’, through to the hazy closer ‘Yield’. There’s a melancholy pop pulsing at the heart of these tracks, coloured by a love of electronic mutations from UKG and Hardcore rave to House and Techno, most evident in the unusual recording process undertaken while constructing the EP. Each track was re-worked from radically different first drafts, often starting life as more recognisable and structured songs before being dismantled into more abstract shapes: percussion degraded and layered, vocals fed through analog delays, samples reworked at the wrong speed and re-sampled to tape for added warmth: the narrative all mixed up.

If you listen with headphones, or at least in front of stereo speakers, you will hear the "Haas stereo transform" which is one of the ways the 2 channels of the Dust of time oscillator can be separated. It is a repeating sequence (on Michigan synth works chronovore 303 sequencer) the second gate of DoT is controlled by accent. The DoT is playing through a delay effect (E520) so you can hear the stereo Haas effect comes through even a long repeating delay. 

The Osc patch on the Dot, is Swarm and a waveEdit file, each side has a dynamic/distortion effect with the amount modulated by the "accent" gated envelope.
