The third collaborative effort between producers Lila Tirando a Violeta and Sueuga sees the two artists effortlessly combining their styles for an organic, two-track sonic experience at the intersection between cyberpunk and Latin tribal mysticism. Distorted drums, eerie textures and abrasive industrial sounds come together in the unsettling heavy-hitter “Residual Self-Image”, while Lila’s vocal performance floats over the manic percussion and melodic minimalism of Sueuga and Tazar Yoot in “Archivios Corruptos”.
As intense as it is sudden, “Residual Self-Image” entangles the audience with its dark atmospheres and oppressive rhythms, making its rare bright passages precious instants of pure bliss.

Sueuga & Lila Tirando A Violeta - Residual Self Image

A sweltering entity pierces the veil of our atmosphere, a shimmering light echoes a warning of its arrival.

Exploited Body returns to Changeless with their earth-shattering two track EP. 'Collapsar' is a high-octane, howling, extraterrestrial banger caving in on itself, with its relentless drums and harrowing screeches clawing their way into the physical realm. 'Syrtis' is a deceptive slow-burner that halfway through the track reassembles itself in double-time through hyperactive breaks and disjointed rhythms.

’Collapsar / Syrtis’ will be released 11th November via Changeless.

Written, produced, mixed & mastered by Nori Kin.

FADER Video Premiere: http://www.thefader.com/2016/09/30/tomas-urquieta-la-muerte-de-todo-lo-nuevo-music-video?utm_source=f

On the tail of his 2015 oeuvre “Manuscript”, which we deemed “a far less jubilant outlook on the club experience than most of his peers’” and “music for packed dungeons and inhabited ruins”, Tomás deepens his dialectic for his 2016 outing, “La Muerte De Todo Lo Nuevo”.

In stark contrast with language of its title, it’s a far less Latin-inflected body of work than “Manuscript”. And in complete agreement with the concept of its title, it does indeed sound like “The Death Of All That Is New” – seemingly oxidizing the stainless steel of of-the-now club music in real time; seemingly demolishing its marble structures in slow motion.

The title track cheekily interpolates a haunting, bespoke variation on the “Alla Luce Del Giorno”/”Chase The Sun” melody atop plummeting percussive concretism, only to gradually unravel into beautiful plucked ostinato with cello accompaniment.

“Anatomía” exists at the odd, but serendipitous point of convergence between a hard, driving, clattering techno track, a sparse Hysterics-esque tool, and a Noah “40” Shebib beat.

“Distopía” begins as something you might hear in a Slipknot skit or hidden track, incrementally adds sparse, fleeting, fragile grime elements, and unceremoniously erupts into a furious volley of snares just as the background harmony reaches its most vulnerable and wistful. Asymmetry and counter-intuitive structure pervade the track – at first unnerving, this progressively subverts expectation and leaves the listener a blank slate, just in time for the finale’s barrage, leading to a touchingly human and intimate moment.

Lastly, “Incierto” is just that – uncertain; meandering as an artform; confusion executed with utmost precision.

On the remix tip, peers M.E.S.H., Ziúr and Ausschuss provide ersatz “alternate takes” to “Anatomía”, “Distopía” and, respectively, “Anatomía” yet again, conveying the synchronicity that suffuses and defines their loose collective.

Release Date: September 30th

Mastered by Helmut Erler at D&M

For their debut on Swiss experimental club label Danse Noire Berlin based Cuban-German artist Réelle offers a glimpse into a world of broken beauty, emerging from personal pain to produce the cathartic Kissing Myself. A highly personal work,the four compositions are offerings of acceptance and release as Réelle attempts to navigate their art through schizophrenia and queer erotic practice.

“Kissing Myself can be seen as a positive statement encouraging unconditional self love. As we are hopefully progressing towards a future utopia, I think it is crucial to first accept and embrace our true nature as human beings and individuals in order to be able to spread positivity.”

The eponymous opener is a glistening ballad partially disguised as a club -ready anthem. Once the heavy bass stabs peel away, the lyrical lead melody reveals an emotional depth which takes centre stage through the rest of the EP. The gorgeous vignette ‘Smile,’ with its slow -motion march, develops its richness through its cascading synths before the joyous ‘Pink’ juxtaposes alien R&B loops, choral samples and scattershot drum interventions, reinventing and reimagining the composition as a lonely vocal falls into focus. The final track by Réelle ‘God,’ featuring Cuban -American artist Lamb Kebab, elevates the refrain “Bitch, I am a God,” wrenching the masculine archetype into a feminine archetype above undulating microtonal harmonies, before being abruptly disappearing.

The EP closes with a remix by fellow Berliner and exponent of club experimentations Dis Fig: ‘All I Have Left’ responds to Réelle’s lush productions by dragging their work back into the club with a darkened tunnel vision seeping back into the mindset.

Key to Réelle’s sound is the practice of painting textures and melodies directly into their productions, transferring Réelle’s digitalbrushstrokes into florid melodies. Kissing Myself exposes the path which Réelle has begun to explore with their second album, Ghamccccxc vRR, released on Danse Noire shortly after.

“Aerial / Paperbags” is the second EP from Scintii, aka Taiwanese producer/vocalist Stella Chung. The music is inspired by travels, dreams, stories and films of unsaid emotions. The production merges her influences of club music, memories of her father playing classical music while driving, as well as focusing on exploring her vocal abilities. The release also marks her first time working closely with another producer, Alexis Chan aka Soda Plains.

Tracklist:

1. Prologue
2. Deux
3. Terminals
4. Aerial / Paperbags

Scintii

Taiwanese producer/vocalist Scintii (aka Stella Chung), bears a diverse background in both studio composition and pop music which she studied whilst residing in London for several years.

Since her move to Shanghai in 2017, Scintii has become a core member of the thriving club scene in the city. She has played for i-D, Diskotopia on RBMA Radio Tokyo, NTS & Radar Radio. She recently played a number of London shows, including events at Southbank Centre, and headlining at Corsica Studios.

Mica, her first release, is inspired by the form and body of minerals, pensively underpinning dark, elusive, cut-up pop vocals with crystalline synths and rhythms from UK grime to the dembow for an enrapturing and refreshing sound. Her second EP Aerial / Paperbags is due late November this year, along with a few vocal collaborations with high profile artists.
