Definite echoes of the berzerk bedlam of the 90's in this. Pretty awesome.

How did I miss this first time round??? So fucking good.

Taken from my "Between Worlds" album out now on Soundtracking The Void. Cassettes are sold out but digital still available.

Fragile X - Between Worlds (Masters)

Between Worlds

Hiraeth

Bricolage welcomes @stevehadfield to the label with a colourful 6 track escapade....

"Bangers and Mash" explores the playful side of late 90's IDM. The title alone gives privy to that. The music itself is a cluster of rapid fire drum patterns and wild grooves paired together with gleeful and mischievous synth lines. This rhythmic concoction comes underlined with gloopy, melting and wonky bass and a dose of fizzling techno undertones that tangle it all together. All these elements give the feeling of some kind of bedlam but instead of straying on the nihilistic end of things they remain firmly fun loving and tongue in cheek. At it's core, "Bangers and Mash" is the producers own digital salute to the halcyon days of the twisted and carefree 90's IDM era.

Releases April 30th on Bricolage

When You Talk Of Dreams / Silence The Noise

Euphoria

After a series of outstanding EPs and compilation contributions on Bricolage we felt that it was about time to invite No Arrival to go big and provide us with a full length album.

The mysterious Glasgow native has not disappointed with "Converse".

It's an open plan world of disjointed and cerebral electronics. A strange and endearing world of stuttering rhythmic patterns, wispy layers, fractal backdrops and impeccable sound design. Akin to being lost in a dream.

The music dissolves and drifts between different dimensions all the while being carried further down the rabbit hole by the splicing of various skewered guitars, samples and buzzing bass terrains. The time and effort that's went into the careful building process of each individual track is more than evident and creates a dazzling collection of finely carved complex and organic landscapes.

As 'No Arrival' himself says "It reflects my state of being during these strange times. All the tracks do have specific and general meanings to me, but hopefully anyone else listening will find their own meanings - emotional resonance."

There you have it, build your own adventure. Let "Converse" be your soundtrack.

Saangoma - Troubled Broadcast (Figurate remix)

Spring is imminent. New life and new beauty is just around the corner.

That sense of rebirth is made ever more apparent this year with all that's going in our world and, hopefully, what is a light at the end of the tunnel.

For our second release of the year, Dark Fidelity Hi Fi has produced yet another exquisite release to sit alongside his ever impressive and expanding body of work.

The "Beautiful Fragments" album is the perfect soundtrack to ease us into the season of new beginnings. It's the Manchester based producer's second release in 8 months and follows on flawlessly from his "Machine Blossoms" album last August.

Assembled during the winter months, the album subconsciously skirts around the suburbs of the soul and touches on topics such as the feelings of solitude, being stuck in a loop of digital communications and memories of the not so distant past that somehow feels like eons ago.

The music itself is crystalline and immersive. Spacious in parts and busy in others. Organic ambient soundscapes, glimmering melodies and lush drum work. Somber tones make a rare appearance throughout but are balanced out with the sounds of life and hope as we drift towards a new dawn.
