IM092 - @bonebrokk - The Astral Catalyst
Label: Infinite Machine
Release Date: July 30th,2021
Format: Digital
Artwork: @benfikaa

A new signee to Infinite Machine, Bonebrokk’s The Astral Catalyst EP marks his first official release for the Athens-based producer outside of his Trial & Error imprint. Influenced by late capitalism and sci-fi dystopias, across two productions Bonebrokk deftly showcases his ‘ExoPunk’ sound; a retrofuturist mix of broken beats from the continuum blended with meticulous, future-facing sound design. Long-standing IM alumni Galtier as well as techno giant Surgeon round off the release with two blistering remixes of Bonebrokk’s originals.

The Astral Catalyst opens with the EP’s eponymous track - an heady dose of industrial percussion and low-end bassweight that could easily shake the paint off a club’s walls. Amongst these dense layers of clattering percussion and dread-laiden bass lines, Bonebrokk weaves in haunting cycles of noisy feedback - a dissonant ghost in the machine.

The following track, Hyperparadox, eases up on the bass somewhat but goes big on the breaks. The track’s mid-range groans and samples that seem to squelch like shoes hitting mud gives Hyperparadox an almost tactile and material nature; as if you could physically sink your teeth into Bonebrokk’s rich arrangement here.

First up on remix duties; UK dance music giant Surgeon reworks The Astral Catalyst into a 3am fever dream, taking Bonebrokk’s original into a more functional techno direction. Surgeon applies a heavy, groove-laden drum pattern to the track whilst still keeping its unnerving mood and white noise-rich environment of The Astral Catalyst very much intact.

Closing off the EP, Galtier reworks Hyperparadox by stripping back some of the layers of samples but ramping up the tension with the elements he leaves in the mix. A great prelude to a bigger body of work by Galtier that Infinite Machine will be releasing soon.

A wild blend of dubstep and breakbeats that could easily re-soundtrack a nightclub scene from The Matrix, this might be the first but it’s certainly not the last time you’ll be hearing Bonebrokk’s unique sound

BLADEBLANC - BITCH AIN'T 1

[FL014] FunctionLab CNY greeting release - GG Lobster - 動亂星 Stars of Turmoil EP

"Everything I do comes from romance, if I can't be romantic, then I won't make music anymore. "GG summarized in a post when "Punk Karaoke" was released.

Throughout the entire "動亂星 Stars of Turmoil EP", the Gabber / Hardcore influence cannot be erased, but this is already the result of GG's efforts to suppress this influence to the minimum. The sensory stimuli pursued at the DJ set were not all brought into his personal release. "動亂星 Stars of Turmoil EP" is concerned with what is happening now, not the cyberpunk ideas, the fantasy of the stars and the sea, nor is it a thing of the past.

Each track has a clear expression goal: "榮耀 Glory" uses a lofty melody to tells about GG's love for certain people and things, not only for the ambition he is putting into practice, but also for those who work as hard as he but People who have not yet made a name for themselves; "犬子來拜 Adoration of Sons" expresses his dissatisfaction with the current situation around him and unilateral provocations against some rogues in a restless voice; "動亂星 Stars of Turmoil" uses a lot of rhythmic patterns of traditional Chinese lion dance, and his emotional foundation is built on Encourage the FunctionLab team and the entire Hangzhou music scene; "香港 Sweet Harbour" focuses on the expectation of love between person to person, with the characterization of delicate melody as the lead.

"My temper is still very strong, but now I feel that fighting with music is a more effective and smarter way." GG sees this EP as a successful self-positioning rescue and a safer emotional release. If you want to make a distinction between his musical career, maybe style and technology are not the most important boundaries, and the change of mindset is the real watershed. Although in music, he has reconciled with it, but in his life, the rebellious attitude could not be changed. Don't roar lyrics is only a partial concession, and the music still carries his sharp opinions, those passionate opinions.

"Let those assholes hear the aggressiveness in my heart and the ambition of FunctionLab and I, and let those who are smug and arrogant about their small achievements hear, there must be a winner or loser one day. "In addition, more is unruly and open love. This is the fate of GG Lobster, and it's what he is. Those extravagant lyrics that don't care are now internalized in his heart, leading him and guiding him.

"I hope you can hug your companions after listening, especially those who are still with you while doing things like moth fluttering fire with you." This is the most sincere, the most meaningful suggestions from GG Lobster about this EP.
