Abyssy - Extra Meta [NIM012]

Soundcloud snippets : on.soundcloud.com/iRMrr

The 2024 of New Interplanetary Melodies begins with a new album and an EP signed by ABYSSY, the historical producer from Bologna who returns to Simona Faraone’s label after a few years since the release of his previous works, Magnetic Archive (NIM001,2016) under his alias Soulomon, and TWO Scorpions EP (NIM002, 2017) under the name ABYSSY, which marked NIM’s adventure in the world of contemporary Italian independent record labels.
ABYSSY is the musical project that combines the Italian producer’s previous experiences with his entire world of musical influences: from the proto-techno of Electrifying Mojo to the heart of Detroit techno and Chicago house, from the minimalism of Philip Glass to the sound of the Berlin School of the ‘70s, embracing electro, the heavy use of synthesizers from the minimal wave, and the science-fiction lesson of Kraftwerk. All of this encompasses the territories of ‘70s and ‘80s NY black music, drawing from funk, disco, boogie, seminal hip-hop, and breaks. It’s a flow of eclecticism and hybrid energies that we also find in his latest works, EXTRA META LP + EXTRA META EP, an album and an EP that are intrinsically connected to each other and have multiple shades.
The album starts with the ecstatic Samba Temperado (A1), which takes us back to the glory days of German Kraut while Mars Trax (A2), Acid Rio (A3), and Quantuum (A4) catapult us into the depths of refined and twisted Detroit Techno.
The B side opens with the beautiful Vectrex (B1), a track with a New York’s Disco Not Disco flavour, followed by the electric house music of Mixed Feeling (B2), a true gem for enthusiasts of more outsider sounds. With Italodoppler (B3), the arrangements become decidedly more ‘80s and sugary but have a sure grip on the most demanding dancefloors. We could consider ourselves satisfied, but ABYSSY and NIM also offer us two bonus tracks (only in digital format) that further enrich the spectrum of sounds presented in EXTRA META LP: the swirling ambient of Supernova (DGTL1) and the carefree proto-house extravaganza of Ordnateur Numerique (DGTL2).
The journey with ABYSSY’s music continues with EXTRA META EP, a natural continuation of the album, starting with the over 14-minute crescendo of C3C6 (A1), a true intergalactic techno journey. Lower Milky Way (B1) nods towards the most elegant Italo disco sounds, and the EP concludes with the granular atmospheres of Busy Line (B2). Just like the album, this EP will also be enriched with two bonus tracks in digital version: the sharp electro of Choices (DGTL1) and the lo-fi house of Drumatic (DGTL2).

TL PREMIERE : Abyssy - Samba Temperado [New Interplanetary Melodies]

Syrinx Music steps up with its first 2024 release, in the form of a new EP from Paris-area producer lucieter. In the course of its four tracks, emerge submerges the listener in sonic landscapes reflective of Lucie Ternisien’s aesthetics. Taking cues from her works in visual arts, lucieter’s music feels both oneiric and poetic, with atmospheres switching from the menacing tones of “les Ciels” to the soothing vibes of “Libellule”.

Soundwise, emerge hints towards ambient, experimental & leftfield music, as well as dub techno and IDM in their more cinematic and evocative aspects. lucieter seamlessly melts her own voice with field recordings, organic sounds & synthetic waves, to create tracks that display a distinct sense of the narration. Each of these four tunes feels like a canvas for lucieter’s poetry to hover above, yet the vocals occupy the same space as all the other sound components: Lucie Ternisien’s whispers, fragmented, pitched, or echoed words act as expressive pieces of sounds, designed to carry each track’s pictures and emotions.

emerge seems to mirror its artwork: it feels both blurred and deeply emotional, with very different elements blending in cohesive, nostalgic vignettes. Its release goes along with a video representation of “Libellule”, as well as a companion poem.

Globe-trotting ambient fusion supergroup Yayoba are set to release their debut album, 'A Maze of Glass' in May on @not-not-fun-1. "Transformation of the 3-Way Mirror" is a delicate slab of musique concrete adjacent ambience. Woodwinds, chiming percussion, field recordings, and electronic flourishes fill the vast spaces generated by the trio.

Yayoba - Transformations of the 3-Way Mirror [Not Not Fun]

@panoram makes soundtracks for daydreams gone sideways. Picture the scene: an afternoon nap with the television on, quietly, in the corner; snatches of conversation drift in through the open window. Wandering, half-formed thoughts take unexpected detours; before you know it, there’s a movie playing out against closed lids, the colors bright, the characters unfamiliar. Accidental rhythms, incidental melodies, imitations of life, messages in code. 

Across 17 fragmentary, sketch-like tracks, Panoram carves a labyrinthine path in which nothing is what it seems: a fantasy world of breathy vox pads, faux guitar, detuned synths, bursts of flute and orchestral percussion, and even the occasional cheeky cartoon sample. It’s chillout music with a chilly edge, ambient with a darkly ironic undertone. (The briefest glance at your news outlet of choice should be enough to confirm that the title—Great Times—ought to be taken with a healthy dose of skepticism.) 

Panoram has been making music under his principal alias for more than a decade now, releasing albums on labels like Firecracker, Running Back, and his own Wandering Eye. (He has also performed and recorded with Amen Dunes, and has co-production credits on Amen Dunes’ forthcoming Sub Pop album Death Jokes.) Panoram’s output has ranged widely, taking in abstract pop, classical composition, twisted takes on library music, and cyborg funk. One record of “bio-acoustic transmissions” came with a cannabis leaf pressed in clear wax; his 2021 album Pianosequenza Vol. 1 gathers his experiments on the Yamaha Disklavier. But Great Times offers the truest picture yet of a project that has never been easy to pin down. 

Loath to overshare details about his personal life, Panoram instead lets the music do the talking, using his cryptic tracks to express the slipperiest sorts of ideas—the thoughts that take root where anxiety, distraction, and the most fleeting traces of grace commingle. Panoram’s approach flies in the face of contemporary ambient orthodoxy, with its emphasis on immersion and uplift. Great Times expresses something thornier, more difficult to translate, yet also more tantalizing to contend with. Its 17 tracks offer a chance to get lost—and an invitation to remain in the maze as long as you like.

All tracks written & produced by Raffaele Martirani. 
Recorded at 199X Studios except "Middle Class Love (Blood Tests)" recorded at Acme Smoked, Brooklyn, NY. 
This record is dedicated to Rowan B. James.

Great Times

Panoram - Cameos // Great Times [BALMAT10]

Bytes readies reissue of the killer 1990s electro EPs by SEM aka Damon Baxter.

In the neon-lit alleys where the shadows creep,
In Area 5, where the code runs deep,
Beneath the hum of SEM’s thrumming beats,
Lies a city of circuitry, where reality retreats.

Detroit techno pulses through the veins,
As dystopian dreams dance in chains,
In the flickering lights of byte-laden screens,
Where echoes of the future meet shattered dreams.
 

Strings of dystopian sci-fi weave,
Through the fabric of what we believe,
In the symphony of cybernetic cries,
Where humanity fades and the machine’s sighs.

John Carpenter’s ghosts haunt the streets,
Vangelis’s echoes in every beat,
In this city of shadows, where no one’s free,
The soundtrack of a world lost in entropy.
 

Earlier this month Bytes announced the reissue of the killer 1990s electro EPs by SEM (aka Damon Baxter, who would go on to record as Deadly Avenger) on May 17, 2024. The second track to be made available for public consumption is Area 5, taken from The Demon EP, the second SEM release, on which Damon expanded the pure old-school electro SEM sound to include elements of Detroit techno and dystopian sci-fi strings, giving off serious John Carpenter/Vangelis’s Blade Runner soundtrack vibes.
