EKSE & ELAZY - NEW CB

@wasmusic-1
The second katharsis release of the year is the EP “Chasms Where Streams Fall And Disperse” by Italian artist POL100, coming out on February 28th. On its five tracks, POL100 takes you on a deep reflective journey through his meditative sound design, by combining uncanny airy pads with stuttering effects and delicate synth melodies.

With each track named after a mineral, the artist aims to interpret how the flow of water sliding through the rocky veins of the earth creates unique textural objects. The technological nature of our planet is embodied by digital and organic ambiances throughout the EP. This very ambient sound expression is novel to the artist, whose latest release was the intense clubby EP “Sepsis” on Bound Centre in September 2020.

Chasms Where Streams Fall And Disperse

Epidote

POL100 - Epidote

It is time to let go of your fear and doubts. You must learn to embrace the darkness of your soul, for it is a light beacon of hope for humanity. Your soul wants to show itself in its truest form, strength, perseverance, courage and determination of spirit. In this lifetime your soul needs to cleanse and open its feelings for katharsis.

With the double compilation “Infinite Summer: Ekstase & Fantasi”, katharsis celebrates the return of raves and concerts to society after a long period of pandemic shutdown. A magical summer has past filled with a great pallet of emotional material, ready to be expressed. Therefore, we encouraged a collection of artists we adore to channel their imagination of the greatest way to conclude an endless summer night with into a piece of music.

This resulted in a grand assemblage of harmonious manifestations, naturally splitting into two divisions with opposing focuses. In contrast to the first part of the duology “Ekstase”, which focused on euphoric and dancefloor-oriented outputs, this second part “Fantasi” has a more serene and introverted focal point. The majority of the tracks seem to be meant to stop time in deep reflection with a placid sunrise as the backdrop, exemplified by the purgative opener “salomé” by Aestum, but the listener will find occasional rhythmic outpourings like the unhurried clubby vibes on awbluu’s “Rosalyne (Voxen)” or the beautiful melodic “we will get where?” by Beham.

PARASYMBOL 6 of 7… NOETIC IRREPRODUCIBILITY AND COGNITIVE DUPLICABILITY

06. Yem Gel - Library

Once in a meadow lived a community
Hidden from greed and insanity

A place made of the most simple magic
Where the breath of everyday life becomes music

The one that takes time to look will see
Among the grass, a microcosm of possibilities

After the sun comes the moon
After the rain comes the sprout

When the time curve draws a circle
Nothing is lost, everything is transformed

Welcome to Ostara, our land of plenty.

Another Day In The Meadow

Swoyd Garden - Sunset Hole

（一）

被遥遥注视的悲剧
是一场滑稽的喜剧

The tragedy of being watched from afar
Is a funny comedy

（二）

记忆里的声音，像隔着厚重的墙。

头痛次数越多，这堵墙就越厚。

一个个不合逻辑的幻觉堵在时间另一边，
我的眼睛渐盲，被吸进光的漩涡。

肯定着索然无味的问题一至问题十。

我在这里，这里就是梦的水塘。

The sound of a memory is like a thick wall separating them

The more headaches you have, the thicker the wall becomes

And each illogical illusion gets trapped on the other side of time

My eyes grow blind and are sucked into a vortex of light

So I focus on the tedious questions from one to ten

I am here. This is the pond of dreams.

（三）

所有打破我的孤独的东西...

All the things that break my solitude...

（四）

怨恨的千军万马，它们从四面八方涌来，
化为丝丝寒意渗入我脚下的土地。

Troops of resentment, they come from all directions
Seeping into the ground beneath my feet as a tinge of cold

（五）

怪异的连结
玷污心爱之物的圣洁

Strange connection
Defiling the holiness of the beloved

（六）

我忘记了我是谁
我是大千世界散落的碎片
我是昨天路过的枯树
我是黑漆漆的乌鸦
我是一阵寒冬腊月的风
我什么也不是

I forget who I am
I am a scattered fragment of the world
I am the dead tree I passed by yesterday
I am a black raven
I am a gust of winter wind
I am nothing

（七）

梦的入口
思想的固体
赤身裸体
将一切束缚抛弃

Entrance to dreams
The solidity of thought
Nakedness
Relinquish the shackles

（八）

下着雪的宽阔广场
地面到处是高高矮矮的冰刺
零散地摆着几只巨型动物陶土玩具
温润的落日停在猩红小凉亭顶上……
暧昧的感动……

梦境如何影响现实？

以一种不可思议的推动力…

模糊虚实的界限…

显现出无限的可能性。

A wide square with falling snow
The ground covered with ice spikes tall and short
Several clay toys of giant animals were scattered
The warm sunset rested on the top of the small scarlet pavilion......
Ambiguously touched......

How do dreams affect reality?

With an incredible impetus...

Blurring the boundaries of reality and illusion...

Revealing infinite possibilities.

（九）

与世界割裂的孤独，
飘在虚空中的寂静，
还有多久才能到尽头？

The solitude of being cut off from the world,
The silence that floats in the void,
How much longer is there until the end?

（十）

世界局限在茫然的未知中

The world is confined in the bewildering unknown

"This song is my favorite one on the whole album. The heaviness from the combination of microtone and brass makes me obsessed.... When I wrote this song I imagined a scene of an overpowering beast descending, a monster covering the sky, blotting out the sun, transformed by my melancholy, that crushes all living things in its path......

The words in the video come from some fragments of dreams and poems that I usually record." - Yikii

Cyrus the Great — The Eternal King

Cyrus the Great, the founder of the Persian Empire, is remembered not only as a mighty conqueror but as a just and visionary ruler. He united nations with wisdom and fairness, earning the title of "The Father of Human Rights."

His legacy lives on through the Cyrus Cylinder, an ancient inscription written in cuneiform, often regarded as the world’s first declaration of human rights. In it, Cyrus proclaimed freedom of religion, the right to return to one’s homeland, and respect for all cultures.

To this day, the spirit of Cyrus stands as a timeless symbol of justice, freedom, and eternal greatness.

Dreamcatcher

smile with the eyes and skin
golden stars caught in hair
and a golden song within
the boy is a cancer
he plays the saddest songs
the girls a night dancer
made of sky and blonde
(the love-knowledge)
ether eating troubled couple of
eyes wide with elation
and the love-knowledge that presence brings is glimmering and ancient
smiling with the eyes and skin
the moon is a spotlight
and our dreamers are the lonely superstars tonight
and they're tellin themselves
i can do all things Jesus Christ
the love-knowledge that presence brings is glistening 
the boy is a cancer
he gave me the sweetest song
the girls a night dancer and shes made of sky and bone
made of sky and bone
he gave me the sweetest song

love-knowledge
