Energia Abstracta EP

Enigmatic Astronaut - Energia Abstracta [EP] [2022]

Galactic Funk co-founder Bertram lands on Dead Channel with his debut EP Kibra Cadena. Literally translated as ‘break chains’ in Aruban creole, and broadly referencing the breaking of colonial chains of imperial oppression, this six track EP of tense, brooding rhythms is driven and gritty. Spanning mutated psychedelic dub, Giallo-tinged cinematix, frenzied insidious acid, and methodically churning crispers, this stunning work is singular in its execution and focused in its vision. Visceral, heady, and relentless, this dark, genre-defying gem is a tour de force in sonic mastery.

Releases on limited cassette and digital March 18, 2022.

Decomposition - Fig. 10: Marek

Bulgarian dark mastermind MANASYt (Petar Tassev) has been rocking his own brand of Nurolektro since 2003. He’s responsible for a vast array of menacing titles on labels such as Bunker, Touchin' Bass, Kommando 6 and Musar. An artist that couldn’t care less about trends nor hypes, and whose main driving force is that authentic passion for the genre.
Some of his tunes resemble a future horror movie soundtrack, others a visit to a mental clinic but most sound like what exactly hostile aliens would listen to while attacking Earth.Currently based in Xiamen, China.

His new release “Live At The Cage” is out now on KinetiK Records (Greece)

Hypnotic Groove Mix #394 - MANASYt

PRE-ORDER: https://linktr.ee/suctionrecords

Artists: Lowfish / Solvent
Title: suction001
Label / CAT#: Suction Records / suction001 (25th anniversary reissue)
Format: Vinyl 12-inch/Digital EP
Release date: November 11, 2022

2022 marks the 25th anniversary of Suction Records, the Toronto-based electro/IDM label founded in 1997 by two emerging producers, Lowfish (aka Gregory De Rocher) and Solvent (aka Jason Amm), the latter still overseeing the label to this day. The label’s inaugural release was a split Lowfish/Solvent 12”, marking both artists’ debut vinyl appearance. 

Gregory and Jason had known each other since high-school, but a deeper friendship was forged during their university years, after Gregory introduced Jason to early Rephlex releases by Aphex Twin and µ-Ziq. Gregory had been making electronic music in his bedroom for more than a decade, but it was those Rephlex releases that ignited Jason’s passion to do the same. After several years of obsessive gear buying, music making, and playing tracks for each other, Lowfish and Solvent had hit their stride, and their demos even attracted the interest of legendary early IDM labels labels Skam (for Lowfish), and Isophlux (for Solvent). But things were slow-moving in those days — letters, faxes, phone calls… nothing was panning out. So that’s when they decided to start their own label, and put out 300 copies of this 12”, suction001.

The label was heavily inspired by contemporary artists like AFX, Autechre, and Panasonic, but on suction001, those influences collided with their ‘80s synth-pop and industrial roots to create something unique. 25 years later, it still sounds fresh, and like nothing else out there. On suction001, 808 drum machines are run through distortion and breakbeats are chopped and mangled, contrasting with melodic OMD-style leads and catchy synth-pop basslines — a sound the label would refer to as ‘distortion pedal new wave.’ 

Over the past 25 years, Suction’s sound has morphed and evolved, but in recent years has shifted back to it’s original Rephlex-inspired roots. That makes 2022 the perfect year to revisit this wild, 1997 debut, now reissued in a new, expanded edition for it’s 25th anniversary. The reissue adds 2 bonus tracks — a 1999 remix by Detroit electro-punk duo ADULT., along with a previously-unreleased version of Lowfish’s A1 cut, and also features new and improved artwork, including an insert with full label discography. 

Limited to 500 copies, and comes with a Bandcamp download card.

Tracklisting:

A1. Lowfish “Helski Gotenks”
A2. Solvent “Course Hub with Garnish”
A3. Lowfish “Helski Gotenks (version)”

Decomposition is a mix series by Dead Channel. Fig. 24 comes from CONFLICT BUREAU. Currently in Chicago, they curate both the Desolation Jax and Leatherette nights (originally spawned in Boston in late 2021), and have been held in NYC and New Orleans. CONFLICT BUREAU is an absolute force in the world of mutant sounds. They hit Dead Channel with this ripper of a mix (recorded live in Chicago at Smartbar last month) cutting hard with freaked jakbeat, mangled acid, and chopped up, stomped out rhythms, in this mutated masterwork.

Recorded at Smartbar on 9/14/2023 at Inferno.

FAQ warps into an alien system with Decomposition 28. Based in Leipzig, the longtime DJ and former resident at the legendary IfZ, sizzles with this ominous, offworld mix.
