"Highly regarded around these ways for introducing the likes of Ronce on his Dawn Records label - with whom he collaborated on the ‘Aquatics’ LP - and a string of ace compilation cuts, visual artist-turned-producer Hajj renders his most ephemeral yet affective conception of a negative ecstasy in ‘Drag Me Into the Void’. The three tracks reprise the billowing introspection of his 2020 debut for Brothers From Different Mothers , ‘Dédicace À Personne’ with a subtly refined palette and sound design, dematerialising traces elements of late ‘90s trance and up-to-the-second trap into thee gauziest, gently buoyant ambient space.

The trio of tax slot neatly into YOUTH's cross section of contemporary bedroom/living room/imaginary club space with a breezy mutability. ‘Drag Me Into the Void’ appears in subtly alternate mixes, bathing a trance siren vocal refrain in anaesthetising reverb and vapourized traces of emo-rap drums with a sublime sense of deferred gratification on the original, while nipping/tucking to more elusive allure in the ‘Euphoria’s death edit’. In the middle ‘Reverse Catharsis’ augments the syrupy ambient rap aesthetic with more pronounced woodblock percussion hinting at Burial hitting the downstroke, and lit up with killer, trancey hyper-blooz synth plucks.

Drag Me Into The Void

With this North African trance-induced fast tempo tune, crafted from bagpipe madness & bold drum sound design, the Franco-British producer & percussionist Sébastien Forrester marks his return to solo duties in almost two years for Promesses.

GIL - Infolding 
Cat. Nr: DN015
Format: Digital
Release Date: 12 July 2019
Pre-order: bit.ly/2ERpTgG

GIL’s latest record Infolding is released by Danse Noire, his second release on the label since Orchids and Wasps. Aptly named, it traces an inward fold, both of the artist's leanings and the listener's experience. The record is reflective, probing, and supple; its arrangements a development of the musical language explored in his previous release.

Infolding engages both with composition and non-determinism, its playfulness skipping across dramatic deluge and expansive gestures to gently paced segments, a game of hide and seek. GIL displays once again his interest in movement as well as an understanding of the fine aspects which determine familiarity and structure; time as rhythm, embodiment as genre, precognition and expectation – the agents of notional listening get questioned gently and persistently. The result is music which will joyfully betray an ear's expectation, replacing it with a twist or sudden space. The record dances on an unstable surface, dipping where it should rise, halting where it could pound, uttering affecting melodies, gracefully yet laboriously; GIL's is an introspective, churning, bone rattling palette.

Hardly ever offering a moment of rest, he creates environments in which something is perpetually pulling, stretching, towards-tending. Laden with cartwheeling themes and hooks which appear and disappear in different shades, the record houses overarching motifs which appear and scatter over the span of several tracks. This dizzying distribution makes for an in-folded listening, in which the artist considers the record's body as outside of single frameworks, its premises and planting delayed or waylaid by new, unexpected considerations.

The distinct sense of motion in the record is the artist making use of his experience as a live musician, and is further developed due to his aphantasiac condition. An inability to visualize both imagery and sound in his mind spurs GIL into sensing arrangements by physical preemption and resonance, reactively. Unsurprisingly then, Infolding takes shape as a blindfolded, visceral dance.

Infolding

GIL - Swallow Ash

Undivided, unified, the overwhelming sense of oneness. Feeling and experiencing this was her strongest desire since the departure, a deep longing. Walking back to base, she knew this had been obtained, it was clear and ran through her like water. Though she did not feel complete, she did not feel intergrated or a part of the whole, as it were. The collective 'one' disected, distributed and proliferated without her. Did she feel spaciousness or emptiness?

The next release on Lyon-based label BFDM is a raw palette of sonics created by Dawn head honcho and visual artist, Hajj. Opening track 'My Love Is Rotten To The Core' floats in and thunders out; delicate piano and textural delays drift upon cavernous low end. The track pushes and pulls and creates space for reflection, or even just a temporary moment to bask in...

PREMIERE: Hajj - My Love Is Rotten To The Core [Brothers From Different Mothers]

Taken from @evitceles album Нелюбов, out September 25, 2020 via @soundandmatter.

Pre-order: https://bit.ly/31LKMpj

After a brief cameo on the quadruple tape beast "Auditory" (2018), Evitceles is back on Sound+Matter / Sores. This time heʼs making a full-length appearance. Following acclaimed releases for electronic powerhouses as Opal Tapes, Yerevan Tapes, Seagrave or Sofia-based Amek Collective among others, Bulgarian producer Etien Slavchev presents 'Нелюбовʼ. Roughly translating in English as 'Nonloveʼ itʼs exactly what youʼll get from the record. "Нелюбов" is mostly occupying the lower ends of both the frequency and the emotional specters of Evitcelesʼ music.

Choosing to serve the music narrative through a fluidly morphing tracklist, Evitceles once again indulges into his signature genre-bending approach. His music doesnʼt stay on the same place for too long. Instead itʼs a relentless mixture of peaks and come-downs. From the bleak and disrupted soundscapes of Memory Loss through the sparse ambience of the self-titled track, the cavernous trip-hop vibe of Weak Eyes or his well-known post-club brutalism in Poisonous Fragnance and Percolating Crawl. Evitceles is still big on producing drum-heavy music, dripping with cut-up emotional textures. However, atmosphere is all in "Нелюбов" so donʼt be surprised when you hear him wrapping the album with not one or two, but three drifting long-form pieces, because in the end of the day everything is meant to die in silence."
