Rapture in Blue & Greasy off The Racing Line

Greasy off the Racing Line (Midnight Version)

Synth ambassadors Birdsnake create their own brand of psychedelic infused downtempo electronica, exploring the line between digital and organic. A free-flowing sensory 
experience, the band seamlessly combines acid jazz, droney textures and dubbed out rhythms. New single ‘Hydrostatic  Pressure’ shares familial qualities with previous release ‘Rare 
Amulet’ that feel aquatic in sound, yet are contrasted with a dance floor focused tempo and darker instrumentation. Hydrostatic Pressure is released on Thursday 28th August, 
and is the second single taken from the band’s debut album  Biofilter’, slated for release on Friday 14th November via Bathtub Music. 

Shimmering chimes and pads of wind-like synthesisers slowly build to a cascade of bubbling percussion and flutters of flute.  Charging four-to-the-floor kick drum bursts through, with shuddering sound effects intermingled with deep  horn-like accents, bringing to mind giant rolling sea vessels. Far away kalimba and metallic bells drift in  and out like tides, yet we are constantly being pulled back to the dance floor. Of the track the band  reflects, “Hydrostatic pressure is a journey into the depths of the ocean, capturing the energy from more boisterous live jams but also reflecting our home studio production sound.” Having met at music school,  Birdsnake formed when after class jams became a regular occurrence. This improvised and relaxed  sharing of ideas forms the basis of all of Birdsnake’s tracks, and the forthcoming album Biofilter builds on  this chemistry. Aquatic in theme and sounds, the new album aims to leave listeners feeling relaxed and 
energised in equal measures.

American producer James Cook has quietly built a reputation for unhurried yet deeply considered electronic music. First appearing on Greta Cottage Workshop back in 2013 with his debut CD album 'Sleep Deep, Mountain King' and later stepping out under his Black Point alias for two vinyl releases on Cologne’s revered Out To Lunch, Cook’s productions have always carried a sense of clarity and patience.

Long-time readers may remember that in July 2020 we published IA MIX 336 Black Point, a revealing mix and interview that offered insight into both his background in music and production techniques. That mix hinted at the directions he would later explore, and 'EP 2' issued through Tokyo-based @format-records (pronounced "format"), extends that trajectory - gathering fragments of the past decade into a finely detailed four tracker.

TREMOR - THE NEW ALBUM - 31.10.25

Pre-order: https://danielavery.ffm.to/tremor-store

Revered producer and composer Daniel Avery returns with a new album and live show, his most ambitious works to date. Channelling every corner of his sound, Tremor is a bold and transportive body of work through euphoric shoegaze, submerged techno, ambient soundscape and industrial bliss. It remains unmistakably Avery, yet dramatically evolved.


With the album Avery has welcomed an inspiring cast of collaborators, including the likes of Alison Mosshart (The Kills), Walter Schreifels (Quicksand / Rival Schools), bdrmm, Julie Dawson (NewDad), yeule, Ellie, Art School Girlfriend, yunè pinku, and Cecile Believe. Each artist leaves their indelible mark, yet the record’s true power lies in the communal spirit at its core.

“This is a living and breathing collective,” says Avery. “Since the earliest recordings, Tremor felt like a studio in the sky, a space in time through which we could all pass as artists”, he reflects. “It’s the welcoming spirit of acid house with the doors flung open wider still to allow in every influence from my musical journey: the warmth of distortion, the stillness inside intensity, the transcendental beauty of noise... They have always been there in my music but now it feels like those ideas are being transmitted in Technicolor. This is a record for the post-rave comedown kids, the guitar heads and anyone else who wants to come along for the ride. Everyone is welcome.”

Tremor will be released by Avery’s new home of Domino on 31st October.
