Migratory 

Robot Koch and BlankFor.ms team up for a new single release on Koch´s imprint Trees and Cyborgs.
"Migratory" is their 2nd collaboration track, following their successful first single "Subtle Ones".

Making use of BlankFor.ms signature degraded tape and synth sounds and Koch`s atmospheric and low-end heavy production, this pulsing hypnotic track combines detailed sound design with a contemplative mood and an uplifting feel that works equally well on the dancefloor as it does for headphone listening.

Both Robot Koch and BlankFor.ms have been busy this year so already, with upcoming artist projects, film and video game scores, and high-profile remixes for other artists.

Bio Robot Koch

Robot Koch is an award-winning artist/composer from Berlin, living in Los Angeles.
He has been steadily crafting an original sound that expertly combines a deep and cinematic atmosphere, emotional reflection, and forward-thinking production.
He remixed the likes of Max Richter, Rammstein, and Christian Löffler, collaborated with conductor Kristjan Järvi and the Nordic Pulse Orchestra, and played high-profile live shows at Coachella, Mutek, Sonar Festival, and Boiler Room.
Koch`s visual music lends itself to pictures and has been used on numerous TV Shows, Movie Trailers, Feature Films, and Ad campaigns over the last few years.
When he’s not pursuing his own artistic projects, Koch can be found working as a producer and writer for both indie and major artists worldwide, gaining gold and
Platinum records for his productions. 
He won several awards for his immersive Full Dome Live Show "Sphere" which sold out in Planetariums and Festivals worldwide and also won the German Music Composers Award in the category
'Best Composer Electronic Music’.
He has amassed over 75 million streams and garnered over half a million monthly listeners on Spotify alone. Koch is currently working on a movie- and videogame score as well as on new artist projects


Bio BlankFor.ms

His samples have been used by thousands of artists, including a cameo in the recent Ethan Gruska/Bon Iver single "So Unimportant". 

Over the next year he has a massive "Artist Series" instrument coming out with one of the world's most popular VST makers, a feature video in Ableton's "One Thing" series, and a video game score with an award winning software publisher.

@SMYAHH

Yavor Zografski, aka SMYAH, is a multidisciplinary artist based in Sofia, Bulgaria. He boasts a career as a music production teacher at Sound Ninja Academy, and the owner of the Sound In Picture multimedia label. With such a complimentary rolodex of skills, it's no wonder that his latest incoming release, Narratives, is such a significant and wide-reaching collection of tracks. As such, The Rust is incredibly excited to premiere the song "Labyrinths” ahead of the full Narratives release. 

The percussion-driven backbone of “Labyrinths” creates a sense of urgency and motion, while the ethereal synths and atmospheric sounds transport the listener to a surreal and otherworldly realm. The track's intricate and evolving textures are layered with precision, creating a complex sonic landscape that reveals new elements with each listen. Use of subtle melodies and organic sounds, such as bird chirps and rustling leaves, add a touch of naturalism to the otherwise electronic composition, creating a timeless combination of organic and digital elements. The intricate interplay between these elements creates a sense of fluidity and cohesion throughout the track, allowing it to flow effortlessly from downtempo motifs to autonomic breakdowns and back again. If you're as impressed by “Labyrinths” as we are, be sure to check out the full Narratives LP on April 21, 2023, available through Sound in Picture on all major platforms.

Sighting - Folder X

The second single of Bastian Benjamin's forthcoming album "Elixir". 
A hard-hitting melancholic electro-banger that takes you on a journey.

Transitioning between realities becomes effortless. From dusky swamps to abandoned towns, from frozen lakes to lava plains. The landscape grows increasingly saturated, the sun intensifying its heat, while plants become withered. In the absence of sunlight, darkness envelops everything in pitch blackness. Surprisingly, this darkness provides a much-needed break. The transitions between dreamscapes keep accelerating relentlessly. You’re starting to yearn for peace of mind. The world has surpassed a threshold of which there’s nothing but infinity left.

Shentov, Simitchiev, Lukanov - One Thousand Years

„Start from yourself. From your organs, your whole body, then the social environment, streets, cities—everything your mind can understand, human-made or natural, constructive or destructive, working only for some’s benefit or aimlessly drifting—all are systems within systems.
Systems are made for their function, each important and valid while they serve change. Growth is inevitable; it’s not a system but greater than that. Its meaning cannot be understood by thought, and therefore any system, ultimately locked in its limitations, is destined to fail.
There is no system to hold on to! If you pursue this diligently enough, realizing with clear resistance that all concepts will dissolve only to mutate into the next one, you acknowledge that all systems fail.“

This EP is the fusion of poet Ulaş Ekim Toprak and electronic producer Julia Häller, aka Chewlie. Heavy on bass and poetry, this piece is a debut statement of our project. "All Systems Fail" is an elegy that illuminates the failure of all systems of separation, identity, exploitation, authority, and oppression!

STREIKTHROUGH is a collaborative sound and performance project by producer and DJ Chewlie and poet Ulaş Ekim Toprak, both based in Switzerland. Driven by a shared desire to blend bass-heavy, ethereal electronic music with thought-provoking poetry, the project transforms contemporary political phenomena into a sonic experience.

By blurring the boundaries between rhythm and atmosphere in electronica and club music, while evoking the power of spoken word, STREIKTROUGH ventures into unexplored territory, harnessing the strengths of both artistic disciplines.
