Best finds of 2018

Pneumatic and Uriel proudly presents 'Divinity Reset’

Forged as a product of their move from Portland to San Francisco the project is an unapologetic exploration of avant garde composition personified by angelic synth lines and dissonant atmosphere. URIEL reflects and meditates on restarting/redefining their personal life and musical efforts through the lens of a celestial world.

Uriel - Tarantula

@starleaf
The 44th release of katharsis is the debut album “Late Bloomer” by the malmö-based entity Starleaf. A whisper caught between interstellar winds, a tale of a cosmic protagonist - something growing, something distant and near at once. The album manifests the ethereal spirit of Starleaf with deep rhythmic pulses of bass sprouting from the deep, strong melodic forces of trancey synths and hard-hitting space-warping percussion.

Starleaf is an organism thriving on the edge of the comprehensible, drawing from energies that defy the natural laws we claim to know. In its branches, rhythms weave, harmonic growth pulses, and textures bloom from the nexus of the organic and the alien. Its origins are a paradox of seed and starlight, where sound becomes a tendril, twisting through Malmö’s underground and far beyond.

Bride is a Berlin-based experimental noise musician and sound artist, constructing allegories within harsh and dissonant environments to embrace a grating vehemence, often with a focus on controlled feedback. 

This mix is a tapestry of unreleased material recorded over the past year collective in their unison of entropy vs control. With a few other tracks from artists I admire.

Interred As Paupers

Haider X Einar - Camp "Justice"

From meditative 303 rhythms to heavy stomping industrial to blissful airy trance-like techno. This mix spans 2 hours in the early morning of Jan 22nd at https://soundcloud.com/mikegervais SYSTEM warehouse. I'm quite honored to have been given a chance to close out a night. Thanks to everyone who came but especially those who pounded the floor till the very end!
