Club Furies Weekly: April I | 2022

Present moments of the past, sound reminiscences of the early 90s Valencia, slide through the grooves of our next reference to internally shake and stir those motionless minds and entities that gravitate imperceptibly around us like white noise due to the implantation of the system, so that they awaken to the understanding of their own purpose.

The architect behind this premise is Asymetric80, the pseudonym behind which Gonzalo Sendón from Barcelona promotes his musical inquisitiveness and tries to roll out his rage before the uncertain moments in which we find ourselves while destroying the dance floor. Thus, he gives us Static Minds, the thirteenth vinyl reference on HC Records. It is a release with four original songs and two remixes by Siarem and WLDV in the physical version, which are completed with five extra songs in the digital one.

On side A, first of all, we find Hidden Visions, a blast that invites us to reflect on the origin of freedom of speech through a forceful bass drum, arpeggiated basses and synths that come together with surgical percussions and a structuring discourse passage.

Next, we find the remix of Hidden Visions that Siarem has created. Here, our already habitual on the label, provides further pression with a dreamy EBM key adding and twisting layers, without losing the forceful, arpeggiated and vindictive orientation of the original.

The last track of the first side is Nahual, where the predominance of a great arpeggiated bass and a clear and overwhelming snare drum are combined with varied melodic sequences that invite us to dress up in our best clothes and set out on the route from Barcelona to Valencia to burn our favourite club dancefloor.

Already on the B side, Astral Body takes us back to those crazy nights of frenzy and musical experimentation, a specialty of the Levant thanks to the new sounds coming from central Europe, but with the intention of making us let loose the held back internal rage by dancing with our fists raised high due to the euphoria incited by its elaborate layers of basses, arpeggios and winding pads.

Next, WLDV delivers his version of Astral Body, taking us to a more combative terrain in which all the heavy weapons have been deployed on the battlefield to reverse the anesthetized and collective state of our society through a continuous bombing of percussion and synthesizers as lysergic as destructive.

Fractal closes this episode of long-awaited awakening, a track that captures and cloaks you through its tangle mess of synthetic melodies and forceful percussive pulses to remind us that there is something, something beyond what they have so resignedly and effectively instilled us with.

The finishing touch to the physical reference is provided by the digital part, where we find the definitive epilogue to this declaration of intent that thus reaches the category of mini-album. Archetype, Symbiosis, Timeline, Hologram and Fragments, with a big download of crystal-clear snares and percussions and grandly intertwined melodies and arpeggios, raise the ante around inner rediscovery after beating society's rotten operating system in the shade of the dance floor.

Last but not least, we have our usual comrades Dani Requeni in charge of the artistic section and graphic design and Steve Voidloss offering the purity of his mastering process handcrafted at Black Monolith Studios in London.

Secondary Drive brings his second EP on Tales of Psychofonia with four avant-garde and highly atmospheric tracks. Aphasia is the second chapter of the Tales of Psychofonia trilogy, inspired by neuropsychological conditions and their impact on our memory, speech, behaviour and perception of the world. It is also a metaphor for the current, dark state of humanity. 
The trilogy encompasses the versatile spectrum of the artist's musical style within the realm of edgy and dark electronic sounds. Aphasia EP is also enriched by a powerful remix created by Void Cells (Blind Allies). 
The three artworks of this trilogy are part of an artistic project made by the photographer Alejandra Vacuii. 

Today we premiere the track Onset; an intensely atmospheric intro track with alluring voice pads and fading drums; a magical built up for what follows; an ambient reverie like the song of a Siren.

1. Onset

Reka & /Beyond/ - We Owe You All [Urban Legend]

Continuing the theme of community collaboration sparked by Hodge and Simo Cell’s recent 12”, Livity Sound presents the first joint works by Azu Tiwaline and Al Wootton. While they come from distinct settings (Azu in the Tunisian desert, Al in London’s urban sprawl), their music shares a similar affinity for intricate percussion and dub-informed space.
The four tracks on LIVITY052 deal in a variety of rhythms and tempos, veering from the propulsive intensity of ‘Blue Dub’ to the sparse, skipping 2-step framework of ‘Light Transmission’. Azu and Al’s refined, detailed approach blurs the lines between electronic sound design and earthy sonics, resulting in dynamic drum tracks loaded with weighty atmospherics and unrelenting tension.

PREMIERE: A. Naranjo - What Lies Ahead [theBasement Discos]

There are an infinite number of reasons why an artist may be influenced to create his or her work, but no cause is better justified than that of life itself and the beauty of everything that surrounds us. Nature as a creative concept can have different interpretations, however, the alliance between Reka and /Beyond/ has built a sound framework based on the beauty that nature offers, a beauty that can show infinite aspects depending on its evolution and condition, and which is in danger due to the mismanagement of this planet by the human race.

Astalar joins the countless demands to try to reverse the current situation of the planet, however, to this attempt to make the population aware of the catastrophe that is looming, we must add the artistic objective, which is to show a new symbiosis between these two producers.

The album opens with We Owe You All, a cut that exemplifies the transcendence of the habitat, of nature, for the development of our life and that of any organisation. Musically, both artists choose to use a strong background, with a powerful punch, to which they add a harmonic conjugation that manifests grandeur and Reka's imposing voice that reiterates the slogan dedicated to mother earth.  

Cynara, the second cut on side A, alludes to a species of thorny plants that inhabit the Mediterranean. This track begins with a dense atmosphere to which a firm rhythmic pattern is added later, and an arpeggio that conditions the musicality of the piece. 

Side B opens with Mil Espinas (A Thousand Thorns), a cut that stages the tiny distance that exists in nature between beauty and cruelty, between calm and anxiety. The gentle drones that enter from the beginning and Reka's hypnotic vocals lull the listener into a serenity that is soon altered by the intrusion of rhythmic structure and a solid bass line. 

Acid Dusk illustrates the various outcomes that can appear in everyday moments. This cut closes the EP mixing influences from various musical genres and in which both artists transform what at first seems to be a placid scenario, like the powerful pad that opens the track, into different sonic outcomes with the addition of a couple of acid lines and a forceful syncopated rhythm.

Release: March 22th, 2022.

Premiere: Reka & /Beyond/ - Acid Dusk [Urban Legend Records]

Urban Legend Records presents: Astalar EP - Reka & /Beyond/

‘Astalar’ is the new EP of the Spanish label Urban Legend records, created by REKA and /Beyond/. Four powerful tracks express the unique energy of the two artists in this avant-garde release. It is a tribute to our
planet’s stunning beauty and attention call for human beings to acknowledge that we owe everything to Nature, even our very existence. Delivered through first-rate electronic sounds, it is a painful realisation that we risk losing everything. The versatile outcome of this collaboration represents the fusion of the
broad musical influences of the two artists.

Today we premiere the track ‘Mil Espinas', which is a slow electro introduction to the EP, inspired by the wildflower teasel (Astalar in ancient Spanish); a sonic representation of its beauty and harshness, like life itself. Mesmerising synthesisers accompany Reka’s imposing voice, narrating an emotive poem speaking straight to the heart.


Reka and /Beyond/ created 'Astalar', somewhere in the magical countryside of Tarragona, Spain, surrounded by a cheeky cat, two super cute dogs and a wonderful human being. Teresa Espadafor is not only the author of the beautiful images that became central to the record's concept. She has also been an essential element for its realisation, with her valuable contribution and exceptional energy.

Local Suicide make a second pass of the Alberto Melloni’s Red Siren which gained support and praise from the likes of Sean Johnston, Justin Wilson (No Strings Attached) Erol Alkan (Phantasy Sound) + Curses.

Berliners, Local Suicide return to the helm, offering up their hypnotic superpowers to concoct an alternative to their cobra wave anthem.

Fellow Hamburg artist and long time friends of Diynamic, Digitalism, now bring their first full EP to the label. Aptly titled „Diytalism“, the duo deliver three tracks and showcase their multifarious production skills.
Opening track „Picnic“ is an emotional rollercoaster ride, colored in sincerity and grandeur. A modern tale of longing and the lunacy of heartbreak.
„Midnight Zone“ is high-octane gasoline; it’s the adrenaline rush on a wild night out; it’s pitch black leather, smashed glasses and flashing strobe light in a Paris night club.
And closing off the „Diytalism“ EP is „Easybox“, a hypnotic tune for after hour dance floor rituals.
