Neon Cleptu 18 

Intoxicating dimensions. For this episode I like to welcome Xenia Reaper.
@user-951049725-782254964

Xenia Reaper released a brilliant and highly recommended EP on their own label XENOPLEX, and contributed to a Various Compilation on INDEX:Records and will be on the new Various Compilation of Emotional Waves. 

They tries to earmark his own interpretation of breaky and deep glitchy feelings. This show contains that wide spectrum of smudged-out and head channeling electronics that keep coming back in his own productions.

I'm very pleased that they participated and will be the one to guide us through his musical fascinations

MIST006 - V/A - My Own Mirror To Stay

• Crescent Textures #126 • Cafe de la Jungle

Cafe de la Jungle is a project created by Tomasz K Zajac to explore his fascination with shamanic practices in highly dynamic sound environments creating cutting-edge contemporary electronic music. Known for his musical adaptability, he experiments with merging acoustic, analogue, and digital realms. By digging into many genres, he draws inspiration from a wide range of word music, including African, Arabic, and Indian influences contributing to his musical output's unique and multifaceted nature.

His ability to seamlessly fuse techno, leftfield, bass, and ambient music elements showcases an artist who yields a unique sound marked by rhythms inspired by ancient traditions, exotic instrumentation, and vibrant textures. His work, released under his imprint Dans Records, has received acclaim from respected media outlets such as Orb Mag and Juno, leading his music to find a home on Polygonia's label, QEONE.

SoHaSo presents a second compilation to celebrate their 11th birthday: Horizons. 11 tracks by current artists on the Utrecht-based record label.
 
11 Horizons will mark the route it is taking. It will be a long and winding road across futuristic dance floors and over soothing electronic fields. The album opens with two blissful chillout tracks. Label stalwart https://soundcloud.com/bas-dobbelaer draws the route for some serious laid-back unwinding. Or should we say rewinding, since the drum machine sometimes seems to move backwards.

Japanese super talent https://soundcloud.com/sooishi dives deep into details with a wonderful dreamy contribution. Ophelia has the same dubby feel as RAMZi but comes with a clear Asian twist. https://soundcloud.com/milio-101 debuts on SoHaSo with a dub-infused and slightly melancholic club track, while https://soundcloud.com/humanspacemachine drags us into the acid vortex.

While Horizons mainly contains new material, SoHaSo also looks back occasionally to give forgotten classics new life. Digital Fingerprint by Biological came out in 1998 on the now forgotten record label EC. More than 25 years later, its bouncy break beats still sound super fresh.

Dutch Techno producer https://soundcloud.com/quincemusic doesn't release much, but when he does it's always dope. Can't Hear You is spot on Detroit electro with a mighty strong punch. Label owner Nuno dos Santos delivers a melancholic beatless clubtool under his https://soundcloud.com/dwaalgast108 moniker. No kicks nor baslines but tons of Detroit-ish soul. 
 
Newcomer Small Solar System Body (https://soundcloud.com/david-hulsken) dives deep into dubtechno with Echoes of Entropy. Next year, SoHaSo releases an album by this talented producer. Dance veteran https://soundcloud.com/remyunger takes the route to motorcity Detroit on Mimpel, a driving techno track with beautiful keys and intricate melodies. 

After two albums, Far Out Radio Systems (https://soundcloud.com/thomasneyens) is ready for more goodies on SoHaSo. This City Is Ill paints a bleak future though, with its strong sentiments and black keys. Closer Rotiriot is by Dutch producer https://soundcloud.com/love-over-entropy, who only used one synthesizer for his upcoming album on SoHaSo, a Yamaha DX11. If you're into early Aphex Twin, you will love this.

PREMIERE // Bocksrucker - Values or Beliefs [R.I.O.]

Cafe de la Jungle builds worlds through sound—dense, hypnotic, and alive with movement. Every track is a pulse, a shifting landscape where rhythm and texture collide, guided by Tomasz K Zajac’s instinct for the unexpected. His productions blur the line between the organic and the electronic, drawing from primal grooves, shamanic energy, and cutting-edge sound design. 
On Ginso, his latest release, he sharpens his vision—six tracks that twist, swell, and shapeshift in unpredictable ways. Out on Polygonia’s always reliable QEONE imprint, the record thrives in a space where rhythm is fluid, structure is loose, and movement is inevitable.

“Flying Nimbus” drifts in like a hallucination—light on its feet but rich in detail, its melody curling and dissolving like smoke. Layers of percussion pulse beneath the surface, shifting subtly, never settling. It moves with an effortless momentum, floating somewhere between the organic and the otherworldly, pulling the listener deeper into Ginso’s shape-shifting terrain. This is just the first step, a soft invitation before the record expands, twists, and dives into wilder territories.

Out on April 8 via QEONE.
