CGIMIX Series

The year came and now the year has gone, leaving in its wake a slew of memories and musical artifacts.  This mix started with the vague intention of showcasing some of the records we enjoyed most in 2014, but then TWINS got distracted and decided to throw in records from other years and just let the mix be what it wanted to be, so while there is a lot of stuff that came out this year involved it is not limited to that.  Thanks for a great year and for all of your support, we have a ton of heat lined up for 2015 so until then...HAPPY NEW YEAR.

CGIMIX vol. 11.0 - TWINS - End Of A Year

After releasing an exceptional EP of twisted jackers on CGI last month, it only made sense to ask Grey People to contribute a mix to our series. Here we are treated to a deeper look into what is influencing the pluralist industrial jackin utopia that is his original production work.  Much like the EP itself, this mix takes us through a wide range of moods, from dark and dusty to deep and cosmic to funky and downright playful…and a few things that defy easy categorization.  A most pleasurable cross-section of acid, house, italo, new beat, ebm, new wave, and techno, no one could have weaved all of this together as seamlessly and as creatively as the warped mid if Grey Peopel.

CGIMIX vol. 13.0 - Grey People - The Warped Mid If Grey Peopel

A full hour of unfocused insomniac funk. Some of it's funky like you'd hear in the club, some of it's funky like you'd hear in the discotheque, and some of it's funky like leftovers you put in the fridge 4 months ago and just recently rediscovered…bold and full of rare flavors. Recorded straight off the decks with no real plan, just pulling records that make me feel something or another.

CGIMIX vol 14.0 - TWINS - Help Me Fight Thee Night

Things have been quiet around the CGIMIX offices for a while now, but upper management has sent out the memo to reboot operations so here we are kicking off 2017 with a classically wonky mix of twisted funk from one of our favorite neighbors, Grey People.

CGIMIX vol. 16 - Amourette

We're back with the intermittent mix series that CGI is proud to call it's own with a fresh new mix from Maroje T. Maroje came down to Atlanta in June and played one of the most impressive live sets we've seen in a while for a CGI party, so it only made sense to ask for a mix and see what kind of madness is influencing his brilliant style. Those of you who live in NYC keep an eye/ear out for his awesome REMEDY parties he throws with partner-in-crime Amourette. Also look out for his killer releases on Kraftjerkz, Pinkman, and Chem Club.

Peder Mannerfelt - Every Day Had A Number (LazyTapes)

Beneath the still waters of Lonely Sound there lays the ruins of Howland Abbey, its 3000lb bell still hanging in the belfry, only swayed by the currents of the regular tides across the estuary, over 100 years since it was rang by the order of Carthusian monks who lived in the nearby priory. At the turn of the last century during a heavy storm the Abbey was plundered by an unknown gang of marauders, as they left on horseback carrying with them all the gold from the Abbey the sea defences around Lonely Sound were breached, flooding the Abbey, Priory and the surrounding land, the Monks ran for dry land as they watched their beloved bell tower disappear beneath the rising waters, unable to chase the thieves, cut off as the water rose around them. Some locals say these ransackers were in league with the elements, some say they had just intentionally damaged the sea defences before making their raid. Local folk-law claims that the morning bells of the Abbey can be heard ring out from beneath the murky waters of the Sound every year on the anniversary of the great storm, ringing the peel that was never rung.

Artist : FOQL (Feat Elena Sizova) 
Title : The Most Complex Things 
Label : CGI Records
Release Date : March 2019
Format : Vinyl 
Order > https://cgirecords.bandcamp.com/album/dumpster-diving-know-how

“Dumpster diving know-how” consists of six tracks that operate both on acid sequences and on fairy-tale-like synthesizers. But this fairy tale is eerie, full of sound waste and disastrous prophecies. There’s room for a tribal apocalypse (“War Drums For Children”), broken acid techno (“The Most Complex Thing” recorded together with Elena Sizowa, a Belarussian DJ and producer) and some spooky yet magical synth landscapes (“Take A Deep Breath & Dive Into The Bin”). What can be heard throughout the whole mini-album is the excellent sound that is not afraid of dirt, noise and “sound waste” that the title refers to. 

Dumpster diving know-how” mini-album will be available on green vinyl and the person responsible for the perfectly matched artwork is Bartosz Zaskórski/Mchy i Porosty.that’s coming out on CGI Records from Atlanta on the 15th March.

Over the last few years Justyna Banaszczyk aka FOQL has released an impressive amount of music on different types of media, on labels such as New York Haunted, Always Human Tapes, Gooiland Elektro and Pointless Geometry. Her hypnotic and unconventional style stems from her industrial and dark roots, and thanks to her soft spot for experiments, heaviness and the most innovative corners of dance music, she avoids the obvious, what can also be heard during her live performances. The artist associated with Oramics collective is releasing a new record “Dumpster diving know-how” that’s coming out on CGI Records from Atlanta on the 15th March.

Premiere: FOQL - Layering The Lies [CGI Records]

Cat-No: F//011
Multiple Man - High On The Hog

Multiple Man is comprised of twin duo Chris & Sean Campion. Originally operating from Brisbane, Australia, their four track EP for Fleisch represents their first record written since Chris’s relocation to New York City. 'High On The Hog' finds Multiple Man at a disconnect. Spread between different continents and time zones, the record’s direction is a marked progression from previous sounds.

Paranoid atmospherics, sheet metal percussion and unhinged mutant sampling, the record finds the twins wallowing in the muck and the mire. The junk funk is still there but it’s bathed in machine age voodoo. This is not a record for the post-apocalypse but an end of history banger for the psycho rollerball time we live in.

Counting down every weird minute until the bombs drop, it represents a grotesque vision of end-times razorback EBM. Continuing the evolution in Multiple Man’s discography and contributing to the Berlin label’s vision, ‘High On The Hog’ throws another piece of meat into the Fleisch grinder.

Tracklist:

A1 - High On The Hog
A2 - You Say Y.E.S
B1 - Face to Face
B2 - Prime Cut

Produced by Chris Campion with additional production on 'Face to Face' and 'You Say Y.E.S' by Jeremiah Meece
Recorded by Chris Campion, Jeremiah Meece, Brady Keehn, Joshua Wells & Dom Stevenson
Mastered by Collin Gorman Weiland
Artwork and design by James Stuart
