Exclusive: Ponty Mython - Onimano X991

It's been a moment since Ponty Mython, Alex Pletnev's anagram alias and one of the many monikers the artist calls his own, drops his first full EP, Onimano X991, after having taken some time off, at least from producing more housier music. According to the artist, he's dedicated himself to computer games, where he found new inspiration in the earlier Need for Speed series, invested into crypto currencies and shaved his beard off. Actually Alex has become an ordinary human being over the past months before joining the electronic music scene again for his EP on Not An Animal Records. Before the release of it in a few days, the artist speaks about the scene in and around Opium Club in Vilnius, that he took things way too serious a few years back, how a bar saved his life and of course the EP itself.

EXCLUSIVE: Ponty Mython - Onimano X991 [Not An Animal Records]

From the forthcoming EP 'Solitude' on Bordello A Parigi. In stores 21/02/2022

Bordello A Parigi is delighted to welcome back the triumvirate of Sergio Mesa (IAMNOTAROBOT), David Jornet (Strange2, AMPbEND) and vocalist Maia J. In 2020 the partnership, better known as Hypnotique, released the stunning 12” ‘La Pénombre’. Armed with four tracks of emotive synth-pop, the group returns with ‘Solitude’. Crisp beats and lovelorn lyrics characterise the title piece, a warbling melody weaving and winding its way through tear-streaked words. ‘Ce Monde’ takes a different direction. Keys are upbeat with just a touch of brooding while vocals are distant yet sensual. Maia J’s incredible vocal range comes to the fore on this record, nowhere more than in the deep and layered ‘Le Divan’. Drums scuttle and spike against flowing synthlines as lyrics smoulder with an inchoate intensity. The tone, and language, change for the finale. Arpeggiators rumble and the band shift to English for the elegance and energy of ‘Paralyzed’. Four beautifully crafted synth cuts from an incredibly talented trio.

Hypnotique - Solitude

Yet Another Kito Jempere Album was finished two months before the pandemic hit, and released right at the peak of it in November 2020. Due to COVID19 restrictions was never played live, although a big AV show was planned and put into production. This album is a long journey of meeting friends along the way of Kito Jempere and making them stand together for one simple idea: get together for music. Album was never aimed at any charts or hype, it was just a bunch of demos, which later transformed into fully fledged compositions and then laid out into a long-play sequence. 

Yet Another Kito Jempere Album is both a spontaneous and easy-going free-time friendly project and a real Kito Jempere’s own universe combining artists as Jimi Tenor, Mujuice, Lipelis, Rich Thair of Red Snapper, Cedric Gasaida, Hard Ton, Ruf Dug and many others. The variety of the album got wider with lots of amazing remixes from Kito’s friends: Max Essa, Andras, Fango, Eden Burns and many more. But every journey comes to and end. In 2022 Kito wanted to finish the story with huge DELUXE collection of 36 tracks including album originals, released remixes and previously unreleased remixes and versions by Samo DJ, Hard Ton, Longhair, Linja and Fanick. Original cover image by Dmitry Shiryaev also was transformed into painting by Netflix/Apple illustrator Joe Taylor. 

Yet once again the world had gone crazy, Kito couldn’t believe his eyes in the end of February. It was a tough decision not to stop, not to give up. Music is the only answer. Art is the only future. We need to find peace within ourselves, spread it around us, and start all over again. The final chapter of Yet Another Kito Jempere Album’s story is here. We all need to redefine ourselves. The darkest hour always comes before the dawn. Only we can make the future happen.

The album is out on 1st April Bandcamp friday as Name Your Price item.

Kubebe's music gently circles the Earth. From Istanbul to Buenos Aires, from Mexico City to Vienna, the Lille resident releases a handful of EPs on Calypso Records (Mexico City), Feines Tier (Cologne) and Hard Fist (Lyon). A true archaeologist of the psyche, he vacillates between ambient and dub, between Japanese influences drowned in neon lights and traces of sweat discovered in the rubble of the Hacienda

PREMIERE : Kubebe & Apollon Telefax - Kamaala A Tae

Machinegewehr creates a universe where melancholy and energy are in symbiosis. Between ethereal synth pads and minimalist rhythms, he composes dreamlike soundscapes, conducive to nocturnal escape.
For his very first release on Mélopée Records, he offers three original club tracks with captivating textures. 

"Gone" explores a more introspective side. Melodic and subtly rhythmic, this track reveals an immersive story in the spirit of Machinegewehr.

"Sunday Whispers" opens with hypnotic dynamics. Its soaring musicality and relentless groove transport us into a cosmic trance. An effective, luminous track that floats between dream and reality.

"Taceval" stands out for its skin-deep sensuality. Soft and melancholic, it unfolds a hushed atmosphere where each note seems suspended in time. A soothing track that contrasts with the energy of the previous tracks.

Tending Tropic's remix elevates the original "Gone" with a decidedly club-like feel ! A punchy rhythm, deep bass, and precise buildup of tension make this a true banger made for the peak time. A hypnotic and high-energy reinterpretation that will set the dancefloor ablaze !

My Secret Playground's cutting edge weapon is back ! He brings its disco touch to the eponymous title, a little darker and above all very dancefloor-friendly !

Pleasure Pool – Night Scars EP

1 Night Scars – 6.22
2 Ask Your Body – 6.22
3 Wassily – 3.10


Written and produced by Pleasure Pool

Pleasure Pool are a new Glasgow band who may wear their influences on their sleeve (they could have easily been in-house band at The Paradise Garage) yet still manage to have a lot of uniqueness & sound of now. They say – “8 am. Yellow on wood. In the moist, the dry fantasises. Blue mood, contemplative. Bass still vibrates, vibrates through the temples. I try to be tired, tried, but who needs sleep tonight? Way to awake to dream, too dreamy to sleep. Other days are starting, good one. Another bit of yellow, air, frantic heart. Beat. Beaten by the night, beaten by the day. Red. Bed? Not yet. On to green, even if it’s grey. There’s always time to play.

That’s how Pleasure Pool leave you, always wanting more. Glasgow’s underground birds put out their first release on Optimo Music. Dreamlike vocals are surrounded by pulsing synth-landscapes, which introduce the listener to their own unique temporality. Somewhere between the euphoria of a 6am rave and the organised psychedelia of an Anni Albers textile, the sound bounces hypnotically on your brainstem until the hypothalamus pukes endorphins out. What colour would Kandinsky find for this one?”
