"Diving deep into post-industrial scuzz and warehouse racket, FUMU racks up the deadliest, most skewed takes on dancehall rave noise and polluted ambient panoramas on his bristling new one for YOUTH, reflecting his roots in Teesside’s mix of Bladerunner-inspiring landscapes and natural lushness as much as his skooling in the rugged underbelly of Manny’s rave scene. If yr into owt from Gescom to Andy Stott to Mika Vainio - your time.

FUMU is a member of the Return to Zero production/DJ crew with Turinn and Sockethead and follows his 2018’s ‘Sinuate’ debut with an aggy album of percussive wreckers and abrasive x beautiful industrial soundscapes compiled from his archives (a new album proper will follow soonish) and originally recorded around 2015-2018 at 'the tube’, the studio he shared with Turinn. It revolves around a classic interplay of light x dark themes crafted thru panel-beaten rhythms and sore electronics that are brusque and brutalist by design but not without an attentive pathos, where decaying, weathered textures and restless rhythmic variations coalesce in uncomfortable harmony.

Cold, skull-scraping noise and voices from beyond introduce the LP on ‘Nu,’ before the brooding tribute ‘4 Mika’ lures us into the album’s instrumental narrative. Through jump-cuts, black-out fades and picnoleptic edits the album unfurls its secrets thru the bruised bumps of ‘Inna Tough’ and sci-fi electro scud of ‘Unlmtd Potential,’ twysting up mutant hardcore techno on ‘Its All Steel’ and belly-quaking power electronics on ‘Cloud Head,’ with ruthless yardcore noise in ’Skhs Pt 11’ giving way to a heart-swallowing closing sequence of ‘Bye’ via the gnawed new wave machine funk of ‘Recordingtapes’, and the shutdown masterstroke of curdled arps and plangent pads in ‘Extra 10.’

Get in pal."

PREMIERE: Jader Toya - JT Got Stinged (Liquorish Records)

DH003 – NPLGNN
Fujakka / Skankin'

Digital Hundebiss is back again, this time with two percussive-only tracks from NPLGNN.

NPLGNN is a DJ, producer, curator, and promoter born in Naples and based in Barcelona.
He operates within the wide sonic spectrum of the sound-system hardcore continuum, at the intersections of mutant riddims and more abstract experimentations.

Often described as the "pre-Babel language of dance music" NPLGNN's artifacts are out of time, with the only intent to shake walls and bodies.

The 1st Grounded Festival VA compilation will be released in parallel to its 7th edition, happening from 24.8. - 26.8.2023 in Ljubljana, Slovenia, with this years theme PEACE. The VA compilation brings together local and international musicians who have performed at our previous editions or who will present themselves for the first time this year as part of the festival’s lineup.

All the proceeds from physical and digital sales will support Ukraine's efforts for justice and peace, and will be donated to the LGBTIQ+ military in Ukraine (linktr.ee/lgbtmilitary).

"𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘯𝘫𝘰𝘺 𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘥𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘱𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘻𝘦𝘥." (Declaration on the Right to Peace, Article 1, UN General Assembly, 2016) 🕊️

Peace is a condition for the exercise of human rights - in times of war and violence freedom of expression, the right of assembly, personal freedom, privacy, freedom of religion, mental and physical inviolability and, last but not least, the right to bare life are suspended. Every war is a massive and systematic violation of human rights, its victims are adults and children without a future: killed, missing, raped, tortured, exiled and imprisoned.

At the same time, the enforcement of human rights is a condition for peace. As one of this year's guests, Aida Čerkez, a journalist reporting from the besieged Sarajevo during the 1992-95, says: "Peace, but not at any price." In Palestine, the peace process is a euphemism for colonization by peaceful means, in Bosnia, the Dayton Peace Agreement is another name for the 20-year stagnation of the country and the entrenching of nationalism. Therefore, peace cannot and must not only be a state of the absence of war, but a state of justice and prosperity for all. As the slogan of the Black Lives Matter movement says, “No Justice, No Peace”.

In conversations, lectures and round tables with researchers, analysts and people with experience of war, members of peace movements, journalists, war reporters and artists, we will ask ourselves whether peace is an unconditional value or whether it has a price; what is the international architecture of peace and whether it is still able to respond to the demands of contemporary conflicts; what place do social and economic rights occupy in the international system of protection of human rights and lasting peace; if there is a just war, there is a just revolution - what is the relationship between the two?

The musical part of the festival, following the most current guidelines, presents the most exciting phenomena of post-club, experimental and daring electronic music for the seventh year in a row, this year again at various club locations at AKC Metelkova.

« Morphers » is a rattling 3 tunes split that was forged between French producer Flore and San Francisco’s Only Now. The release represents the unwritten language shared between both friends over the past 7 years, with their affinity for propulsive percussion workouts and livewire bass music. After releasing on the POLAAR label for years, Only Now and Flore finally met in person for a collab long awaited.

Brilliant surprise remix by the wonderful artist @aya_yco ! A slow-burning roaring footwork drum and bass remix of my track Wait taken from my album Pitch Blender.
This one comes as a super yummy cherry on top of the already delightful Pitch Blender remix EP, with works by Scratcha DVA, Jana Rush, Kasimyn Gendang, Jessica Ekomane, Mc Yallah and me.
We've heard with immense joy these being played out there in clubs and on the airwaves. Thanks for the love!

Giving it extra back at you now! Go hear it now

Taken from SBKT034: Nahash - Flowers of the Revolution

‘Flowers of the Revolution’ is the new album from Nahash. 7 original tracks, including a collaboration with Osheyack, plus remixes from Elvin Brandhi featuring Kanja from Duma, Gabber Modus Operandi and DJ Plead

‘The album was written while researching and reading about the role that the US played in installing dictators in central and south America. The harsh and industrial sounds I used as a way to talk about what happens when the harsh reality of neo-liberalism takes over a country that could do very well without it.

I was reading and watching documentaries about Haiti and Cuba and trying to imagine what those countries would be without any western influence.

The ‘’flowers of the revolution’’ are the flowers that never grew, the fields that were burnt down, the plants that were trampled by boots.’ – Nahash
