Psychic Liberation proudly presents Acid For Babies, the latest full-length from Mexico-based artist Ñaka Ñaka (AKA Jeronimo Jimenez). Acid For Babies is a glistening invitation to an environment of minimal complexities. Its textures and repetition were fine-tuned to soothe or delight a baby’s ear — specifically, that of his new daughter. “No babies were exploited in the making of this album,” Jimenez notes.

This record marks the first release Ñaka Ñaka — Jimenez’s club music alias — has contributed to the Psychic Liberation discography. The playful, unassuming tracks are one-take tape recordings from hardware instruments. The album is bookended with an interpretation of Raymond Scott's little-known final composition: a piece for MIDI titled "Beautiful Little Butterfly."

Jeronimo Jimenez is a Mexican musician best known for his stage name Ñaka Ñaka. In 2011 he self-released his first EP, El Pequeño Edgar, and began playing extensively throughout Mexico City’s underground. The following year he moved to New York, where he performed regularly and recorded albums for local labels like Bánh Mì Verlag as well as foreign outposts such as Opal Tapes and its offshoot Black Opal. He founded his own label, Pauf Recordings Ltd., and launched his new moniker Jero Route 66 following a whirlwind eight-day tour of eight countries across Europe with die Riehe in 2016.

He soon became a regular performer and collaborator at Far Rockaway, NY’s legendary experimental music venue Red Light District. After nearly a decade in New York and a brief one year stint in Buenos Aires, he moved back to Mexico, where he currently resides with his wife and daughter.

Midheaven Records continues its run of firsts in 2021 with ‘Shifgrethor / Konstant Kemmer’, the debut of Eora/Sydney-based producer Mx-Ai (they/them). The last decade has seen Mx-Ai move from playing in bands, to no-input mixing, to chopping samples and programming drums—a habitual experimentation both integrated with living, and consciously auto-didactive. Years of quietly working away have resulted in a warped bass music sound, drawing upon the sensibilities of musique concrète, jungle, dub and dancehall. Taking their names from concepts in Ursula K. Le Guin’s ‘The Left Hand of Darkness’, ‘Shifgrethor’ and ‘Konstant Kemmer’ are a small glimpse into a larger world of sounds yet to be heard, where synths cling like vapour to structural beats, meticulously grooving and articulate. Astute sound design makes tangible a feeling suspended between excitement and anxiety, with sweeps of FX and minute rhythmic shifts keeping things on the move, ever-curious and rolling. This is an exciting statement of intent from a gifted artist.

Just when you think you've heard all the Sleng Teng riddims.....
Taken from the Reducer 12" available on Bandcamp:

https://reducer.bandcamp.com/album/reducer-2

Private press industro-dub madness beamed from squat-life Northampton, circa the 80s. The first and last word in classic dancehall punk comes around for a SECOND issue 12″ scraped off the linings of the cosmic dustbin that tried to bury them.

Real relics acquired direct from Reducer guitarist and tape-loopist Hooly ‘the Human Aerial; Insant cop if you’re into: Eric Random, Jah Wobble & PIL, African Head Charge, any 80s post-punk to be honest.
