EMIT.8 is Canadian fashion designer and decorated judo champion Josh Reim’s debut full-length.

It’s a brooding, melodic work painstakingly sculpted in the Quebec and New Hampshire countryside. The album brings anguish and relief in equal measure, reconstituting human pain in digitized form—like a disembodied nerve system animating a sinewy mech suit. It’s heartfelt and cold, alien and intimate.

The work builds on Reim’s previous project, 2021’s Circadian Rhythm EP, which found harmony between disparate influences like Joyce Manor, Giant Claw, and Bach. EMIT.8 is built on traditional pop structures, rendering gleaming, cybernetic sonic architecture on its foundations. The songs traverse time, penance, faith and the interaction between them, finding a blissed out state of grace in the quest for redemption.

Meet Her At The Instrumental Violence (Lo - Fi Speakers Cut)

трип presents ‘locus error’, a new double vinyl concept album. Moving beyond the scope of the traditional, arbitrarily compiled VA, трип's conceptual approach brings together a range of artists around a uniting theme, supplying a sense of cohesion and narrative thrust.

Like Noel Saavedra’s accompanying artwork, the narrative is vibrant yet nightmarish, a vision of classic trance music, including its psy side, refracted through трип's fearless, oddball aesthetic. Nina Kraviz sets the tone with 'test'. Kyoka’s ‘link’ coaxes you in with suggestive murmurs from all angles like an auditory hallucination. Ryan James Ford and ANTIGONE make label debuts, while SOPHIE and Juliana Huxtable unite for the first time as Analemma - a formidable pairing with an abstract offering, merging trance elements, metallic and corporeal sound design with vintage euphoria.

трип misfits PTU do their best to upset your sense of time and meter with two modern psy trance interpretations. Carlota contributes the nervously optimistic title track. Alan Backdrop’s hair and pulse raising yet classy ‘nizaj’ clears the way for the grand finale: X-Dream’s murky, mesmeric and minimalistic genre classic ‘superintelligence’. On the digital a ‘clever mix’ that was previously unreleased outside Japan will be released. Masters sit alongside newcomers to the form, on an LP for dancers deep in a fugue state.
