The 38th release of katharsis and our final release of 2023 is the prodigious compilation "Embracing Darkness, Absorbing Light" featuring a vast array of artist beloved by the label. Throughout the grandiose line-up of the 36 tracks, the listener is absorbed by various differing interpretations of the theme outlined in the title of the album. Some of the invited artist went full into introverted progressions and meditative sounds, while others focused on aggressive rhythms or anthemic melodies. But even though the styles and techniques of the songs differ from each other, the artists seem to have some commonality in their sonic palettes that binds it all together in a mutual love for music as a healing force of nature <3

@grippingbeasts' piece crawls out of a burgeoning substrate of ultra-minimal Sporestyle. Tektonikore producers have been hoarding the drills that were previously used for drums, so loads of Sporestyle is just Germ.Musik now. Nobody will it admit it tho LOL. They get really really angry if you bring it up. G.B. has been trying to alchemise single-celled-lifeform-basic ambient pads for months, but eventually threw in the towel. None of the deranged tech in the house is even remotely human-comprehensible and the best they could get was a pile of burbling washes and weird jittering percs. Apparently the pseudo-piano is in there somewhere, but it's evidently been processed down into an unidentifiable see-thru foam. Like three people keep following me around telling me Gripping.Beasts is the one in a romance with Nadpher. I am only saying this so they will leave me alone. Pestulant && Intolerable.

my old pc broke down two weeks ago - so I bought a new one and felt like starting an album project from scratch, which turned in to this fun little album inspired by recent road trip around tasmania :))

Dayrealease "Revery Intuition" [AD006]

"Inspired by baroque, free jazz, dubstep, and early rave. Fairytale melodies, crafted on a MacBook Air, intertwine with sheer reality, expressed through self-captured ZOOM field recordings and cuts from foley sample libraries. orchestral instruments and melodic bass create almost nervous, excessively emotional condition, taken placidly as if in a meditative state, with help of ASMR-like experimental drum patterns."

Dayrealease - Stone's Feelings

Shelter proudly presents: Mizgîn, a leviathan compilation of 18 tracks by 21 artists presiding on the cutting edge of electronic music. 

As we find ourselves in the eye of the storm during the most deteriorated epoch in modern history, Mizgîn, meaning "good news" in Kurdish, was motivated by the desire to offer respite from the horrors of the world. Shelter's ambition to unite different regional music scenes has once again brought together artists from nearly every continent, with contributions from legendary names.

This compilation is dedicated to everyone struggling towards the liberation of the oppressed.

Mizgîn releases on 17.05.2024 on all streaming platforms.
