The night sky was lit by the flames of the flickering candles that bordered the clearing — it was the only light for miles and miles. Here they were far away from everything, and where there were no signs of civilisation, there were no interruptions. Those lucky enough to be welcomed into this ritual were all here for one reason or another. But the overriding motivation was finding something beyond the realms of reality; an intangible and unspoken force that could lead them to a higher state of consciousness. 

Tagliabue's organic approach to production has yielded cosmic and trance-inducing releases for the likes of Lustpoderosa, Cosmica Music and Blue Sea, under this alias and his given name Joseph Tagliabue. Elephant Gait Music is the next home for his transcendental musings, this time coming in the form of his debut mini-album Ambiente Sonoro. Like his previous releases, the music is cerebral and enchanting, merging eerie chants, droning atmospheres and ritualistic sounds with 70s library music and IDM influences à la Daniela Casa, Egisto Macchi, Global Communication and Coil.

PREMIERE: Tagliabue - Progresso [Elephant Gait Music]

PREMIERE: Fear-E - 80s Arcade Obsession (Posh End Music)

Cawd Slaydaz is a clear shift for Frigio Records. Yet, this debutant also marks a return of sorts. The album brings together Max Abysmal and Hugo van Heijningen. Max is active as DJ and producer with releases on Safe Trip, Kalahari Oyster Cult & Dekmantel. Hugo is a musician with a history of projects & aliases like Red Light Radio (co-founder), Hugo de Naranja, DJ Soulseek, White Slice, Firestone, Malkovich and Stallion’s Stud with releases on labels such as Pinkman, Artificial Dance, Recreo, Suburban & Müstesna Records. The link that connects the two? Their love for Colombia and the rich musical melting pot of this diverse nation. Nothing is stable on this eleven track LP, recorded in Bogotá Colombia with 10 different local guest artists.

Rhythms are cross pollinated, cold and stark city thump collides with rich and lively organic flows. The style pursued is anything but singular, like the messages. Social exclusion and brutality in the poetic Perreo “Dejen Bailar” is mirrored in the Cumbia food ode “Potato Trip”. Dark Electronics, Experimental Bass & Trap are the genre tags that most will attempt to label this record with. This ignores the Leftfield Funk of “El Gorila Del Desierto”, the Stoner Ambient of “Uffff” or the Synth-Punk rage of “Razones”. An audio snapshot of a country: TOTÁL.

PREMIERE : Cawd Slaydaz - El Mejor Escenario Posible

Ransom Note Recs. welcomes back Belfast producer Lunar Orbit Rendezvous (aka Gregory Ferguson) for a stellar revisit of the title track ‘Faith/Reason’ of his 2021 album. The textured landscape and ambient tapestry of ‘Faith/Reason’ are passed onto producer pals Fred und Luna, Yoann Pistermann and Flug 8, who were able to take the track through adventures of sonic intricacy and bewitching music production.

Kicking off is Fred und Luna’s hypnotic remix featuring Loreli Faso Lhatido’s voice. Fred und Luna (aka Rainer Buchmüller) “are two mannequins living in a fashion boutique in Karlsruhe, Germany. On live shows they are represented by Sugar Ray Buckmiller as Fred… and an always-changing Luna of his choice” (RA). Under the Fred und Luna alias, Rainer produces his trademark ‘eargasmic’ Elektrokraut/Krautelektro (as he describes it himself), made of repetitive rhythms blended with ambient soundscapes and ethereal melodies alongside some traditionally inspired Krautrock. Just like the words “Faith, Reason” fluctuating in a chuggy limbo of ambient suspense and repetitive bass guitar strings.

Next up, French-born Berlin-based multi-disciplinary artist Yoann Pisterman takes Faith/Reason through to celestial gardens of zen. The interweaving of drones and melodic elements, loops, and repetitive patterns, makes up the key traits of Yoann’s magical transportive sound that echoes a lot with Japanese ambient and New Age music of the 80s. This remix slows things down to invite the listener to linger at last.

Focus track and closer is Flug 8 (aka Daniel Herrmann)’s remix – a completing enhancer of the EP’s sonic direction. Flug 8’s upbeat driving ‘space’ techno cradles like a lullaby at dawn. Swirling melodies accompany the soaring drum kicks, swirling in infinite synths of hope and void. Indeed, Daniel’s unique soundscapes are dreamy additions to Lunar Orbit Rendezvous’s remixed work.

Faith/Reason (Yoann Pisterman Remix)

Bad luck seemed to follow them around wherever they went, they just couldn't catch a break. A dark shadow that loomed over their every move, they wondered whose joke they were the butt of, it was almost laughable the amount of things that seemed to not work out in their favour. They often pondered what they would need to do for this luck to change or perhaps the universe was simply against them... Their fate was in somebody else's hands.

Fides, the Berlin-based label run by Tresor Resident Z.I.P.P.O, have been moving in the worlds of electro, techno and IDM-inspired electronics since 2015. For their 15th release they welcome Amsterdam producer and DJ Mayo for a five-track EP that comes with two remixes from Mary Lake and Danny Daze. Like her previous releases for United Identities, Marguerite and brokntoys, on Frenemies she delves into EBM-leaning sounds, fusing electro, techno and industrial influences with her distinctive use of ghostly synth lines, distorted vocals and meticulous sound design.

PREMIERE: Mayo - Not Your Shadow [Fides]

Photonz @photonz is the alias of Marco Rodrigues a DJ, producer and driving force of Lisbon's underground scene. For little over a decade now, he's been crafting his own deeply personal style of Portuguese house and techno. As a DJ, Photonz grew a reputation for deep crates and intensely euphoric sets and in 2017, together with Violet (co-founder at his Radio Quantica) and Lisbon's own Rabbit Hole collective, he started the now infamous Mina parties - a monthly, sex-positive, queer and intersectional-feminist techno party aimed at using the dissociative potential of intense raving to create a temporary space of suspension away from patriarchal expectations.
Nuit is Photonz’s debut album and a simultaneous reference the Egyptian Goddess of the Stars or Night. Marco was really swept away by the concept of ‘freedom of form under the night sky’, the accepting embrace of Nuit. Ancestral, but also socially advanced and utopian; a deification of the night time. These ideas manifest themselves as eleven songs spread across two LPs that wax and wane like the moon. Photonz channels early techno, Drexciyan rhythms, balearic & atmospheric house; layering sounds, creating moments. All songs have been mastered by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. The vinyl comes housed in a royal blue and neon yellow jacket with duality/birth symbolism and trance-hieroglyphs designed by Eloise Leigh. Each copy includes a glow-in-the-dark sticker and a postcard with notes.

Center Of Things

Mioclono - Center Of Things

Exhausted Modern's debut full-length titled The Year of the Rat is a proof of the thought-provocation that author's name generates. Released on his own Endless Illusion imprint, the album doesn't have all the answers, it simply offers Exhausted Modern's perception of the modern times and also the energy to do something with them. The title, borrowed from the Chinese zodiac calendar, doesn't slip to mere esoteric prognosis, it fittingly and provocatively comments on broken mechanics of society, capitalistic hierarchisation and emotional frustration of its victims. Despite the dystopian character of Exhausted Modern's sound, which ranges from fast melancholia through suspicious calmness to slowly bubbling rage, it doesn't feel like the end of the world. It's critical artistic statement of a person who despite seeing all the darkness, also sees the way out of it.
