Marseille-based producer and qualified megamind - bouti - unleashes blackrock! - a JURASSIC-sized 32min SINGLE. Commencing the project in endworld_2020, bouti’s only rule was to compose the 'track' in chronological order - chopping, colliding and crushing samples with reckless abandon and forward propulsion. The final incarnation spews forth in a kaleidoscopiq mess/mass of ***SOUND***. PsyTrap meets Flamenco-step, HARDTEK mashed with Ke$ha paps. bouti flouts all notions of ‘genre’ with delirious DAW tactics, creating a deep-fried plunderphonik paean to our info-avalanche age, i.e. the EXTREME NOW!!! 🌎💣︎☠︎

IDM in design, dumb-dumb in fun factor.
blackrock! is plunderphonia 4 da people

Bouti - Blackrock!

Hold onto your seats as pq returns to the spooky shit imprint with a racing new EP, ‘exhaust loop’. Described in the press release as ‘balloony tunes’, it feels like the most appropriate way to talk about these weird and wonky tracks. With the release coming up next week, we have the exclusive stream of the turbo-charged ‘cheek’ leaving you breathless in your tracks. 

Founded by pq, ekhe and spooky-j, spooky shit was launched in 2019 as a platform to house their boisterous, in your face club records whether that’s solo or under their trio moniker Hot In Da Club. 

‘Exhaust Loop’ by pq will be released on the 4th November via spooky shit - pre-order here: https://spookyshit.bandcamp.com/album/exhaust-loop

Premiere: pq - cheek [spooky shit]

‘Inflatable Gravestone’ is the debut album by Mun Sing (aka Giant Swan’s Harry Wright).

The motivating force of the album is the sudden loss of Harry’s father in 2020. His father struggled with substance addiction and the album explores ideas of 'spirituality' and the ‘higher self’ in relation to addiction and its parallels with the coping mechanisms of grief. It also aims to highlight the importance of humour and distraction when coping with loss.

Serving as a narrative for his own experiences, the album is largely built around club-centred tracks (such as ‘Spider’ and ’Squabble’) broken up by moments of yearning and reflection in tracks like ’The Poison Garden’ and ‘Helhest (Azrael Smirks)’ and moments of dark anguish like 'Inheritor' with its heavy slab-like chords and pensive piano. Flirting with awkward and suggestive rhythms, Wright deliberately suspends moments of resolution and groove in favour of drama and jerky, unexpected cartoonish humour, taking as much influence from the likes of the Art Of Noise as Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. 

Wright rewards the listener with moments of clarity and introspection like flags on the journey, recruiting vocalist MX World to deliver lyrics and melodic ideas created by him and his father. His father’s journals in rehab helped inform most of the lyrics. Some take whole sentences as a way to physically ‘give life’ to his words for the first time. The lyrics describe feelings, revelations and  apocalyptic hallucinations. MX World's clear, direct tone suggests folk music and the timelessness of the human condition.

The album concludes with the title track ‘Inflatable Gravestone’ which features a chorus of giddy manipulated laughter from Wright’s friends and family to a truly maddening effect. This is then resolved by bright and clear piano chords and the sound of Wright’s father breathing in his sleep. A deeply affecting and personal record with corkscrew twists and turns and a healthy dose of absurdism.

<< La N'zassance, ou le pouvoir du mélange: an ode to my roots, to intermixing and its power. In apollo, a dialect of the Nzema people of Ivory Coast and Ghana, "N'zassa" is a unique patchwork piece created with a mixture of fabric scraps. Here coupled with "la puissance" ("the power" in french), this expression perfectly defines my artistic approach and what this show is about: a love for experimenting with intersectionality of genres, and the power in doing so. Here you shall not expect rules, limits nor borders. Here, expect some afro-caribbean sounds, hybrid club music and many others genres, as well as "special focus" shows. >>
