V/A - Glyphs : Wood
[QNE.GL.001 | QEONE]

Produced by Tomasz K. Zajac aka Cafe de la Jungle
Mastered by Niklas Bühler at Klangstellwerk
Artwork by Lindsey Wang aka Polygonia and Tenzia

Released by QEONE from Munich, Germany
Release Date: June 7, 2023

It is our absolute pleasure to announce the first compilation on QEONE.

This wonderful collection of tracks is really unique as all pieces are based on one concept which is completely sound design oriented. The idea behind this release series is to have one material or substance which will then be interpreted by the artists. For this very first compilation we chose the material Wood.

In the end the artists will also reveal some specific techniques which they used for the production of each track to transform this project also into a skill sharing platform for followers to learn from and get inspired. It offers a great opportunity to get insight into various approaches to one topic.

Cafe de la Jungle produced a minimal influenced dancefloor tool ‚QMMF‘ which has a crystal clear yet organic sound aesthetic. The high wooden textures and tones give this piece an amazing tension which sucks the listener right into it.

Indefinite Pitch PREMIERES. Cafe de la Jungle - QMMF [Qeone]

Let's welcome back our dearest @cafe-de-la-jungle to the thirteenth episode of our Herbarium mix series. We are still swaying in hot memory of our recent QEONE x On Board Music night at OHM Berlin and feel that this mix mirrors some bits of his groovy side which he presented back then.

Cafe de la Jungle chose the Monstera Deliciosa for his musical journey here.
What he says about the connection between this plant and his mix: 
The monstera plant's ability to thrive in the rich variety of the jungle, from shadowy undergrowth to sunlit clearings, mirrors my versatile view of electronic music inside the mixtape. Just as the monstera effortlessly adjusts to its surroundings, my mix weaves a sonic journey that spans an array of electronic music genres, from the slow dubby beginning thru more high-energy rhythms towards the melodic end. 
The plant’s adaptability and resilience find reflection in the the mixtape's capacity to traverse musical terrains, providing listeners with a multifaceted journey through the electronic music jungle.

• Crescent Textures #126 • Cafe de la Jungle

A rhythmic playground of shifting textures and lively grooves, ‚Ginso‘ by Cafe de la Jungle unfolds as a six-track sonic adventure where dubby depth and organic fluidity intertwine seamlessly. The journey begins with ‚Flying Nimbus‘, which gently draws listeners in with its whimsical melody, setting an open and curious tone. Expanding
the horizon, the title track stretches wide, like a deep inhale on a breezy hilltop, filling the space with an expansive sense of freedom. As the mood intensifies, ‚Energy Cell‘ takes over, injecting hypnotic momentum and driving movement forward. The transition into ‚Sumu‘ introduces a dynamic interplay of percussive structures, twisting and turning unpredictably yet always maintaining a cohesive flow. The elegant ‚Mandarin Duck‘ follows, gliding effortlessly through sonic waters, its vibrant textures mirroring the rich color palette of its namesake. Finally, the journey reaches its luminous
conclusion with ‚Element of Waters‘, where shimmering, flowing percussions bring everything together in a sparkling and uplifting finale.

Cafe de la Jungle - Ginso [QNE013]

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.

PREMIERE: Cafe de la Jungle - Flying Nimbus [QEONE]

The river was flowing rapidly. The rain from the night before had meant that there was little room for error as they floated on down through the rushing water. The noise was bellowing all around and the rough smacking of waves against the boat was almost frightening at times.

They could see the dense greenery of the jungle all around them on either side as they careered down the rapids, narrowly avoiding the rocks and the dense fog of white as the water surged beneath them.

The sun beamed down from above upon the expedition.

It was hard to tell where they were anymore...

Cafe de la Jungle has become well known for his eclectic take on percussive electronic music which sees him experiment with rhythm and structure in innovative ways. His music is intelligent and hypnotic often leaving you quizzical of its whereabouts or direction - we say this in the best way.

This new record on QEONE is special. A true heads down, lock in affair.
