To celebrate the fifteenth release of the ÆX series the Amsterdam label presents a special collaboration with Delsin Records. ÆX started back in 2017 as a white-label offshoot from the Indigo Aera imprint, Jasper Wolff and Maarten Mittendorff had a plan to create a platform with a mix of like-minded unknown, well-known and admired artists. This no-nonsense approach with stamped white labels and uncredited tracks quickly grew up to be one of their most committed projects to date.

Four years later and fourteen releases in, ÆX015 is a special split EP in collaboration with the closely related Delsin Records. Both labels invited three names to present a fresh and dancefloor focussed pack of grooves and moods.

On ÆX's a-side, three familiar faces Taupe, Emeline (also known as the Parisian artist Molly) and label curator Jasper Wolff bring their warm, acidic, bass-heavy grooves in typical fashion. The b-side comes from Delsin who introduces three new artists to the team. R.O.W.S from the Swedish sewer sender crew going in with a miles-deep dub-techno take. From Barcelona, it's Annie Hall with an emotive blend of her crispy electro. At last there's Yone-ko @yone-ko wrapping up the pack with grooving subtle hazy house moods.

Yone-ko - KKLKN (DSR/AEX015)

After a bit of a hiatus, Blue Veil aka Daniel Clancy is back on his own label, ‘Dichotomy Records’ with a new 5 track release titled ‘Urban Alienation’. Ambient interludes, and break-beat excursions abound as Clancy brings the listener through an emotive journey laced with introspective moments.

Our premiere for today, ‘Imagination Of Ourselves’ pulls at the melodic heartstrings almost immediately. Bittersweet synths set the scene as layer upon layer of intricate percussion is added to great effect. The textured pops and micro beats add enjoyable auditory details into the mix, making for a tight swing and feel to the track.

Imagination Of Ourselves, and in turn the rest of ‘Urban Alienation’ will be released December 17th.

Boris Bunnik returns to the Fluid Electronics label after he delivered a stunning remix for Rob Belleville in 2020. This is his first outing under the Vernon Felicity alias since 2016. Boris - better known for his work as Conforce and Versalife, steps up with four cuts joining the dots between sci-fi-infused scenarios, rapturous synthy vistas and AI-powered club dynamism, bound to have dance floors phasing in a paradox of hi-intensity wares and textures-splattered sonics tailored to maximal effect. 

Breaking the EP in, “Chord Memory” lets out a thunder of raucous machine gargling. Navigating a league of its own, halfway proper muscular EBM and no-frills techno from the deep, this one attacks pedal to the metal with great loads of aggro kicks, rattling snares and monster bass swells surging upon the ravers with ominous presence. Doped on laser blasts and liquid-like vintage keyboardry, “Hindsight” blazes a trail of dusty acidness across, laying it thick with FX-riddled stabs and octave-shifting pads out an oddly distorted VHS score. 

Flip it over and here is “Contemplation” - a synth-heavy, Chicagoan style mover, smoothly drifting into Blade Runner-esque hyperspace as bars run by. From minute first to last, VF serves up a premium skittish and playful disco chug endowed with the right dose of...  more

frontleft memories (eyes down)

TL;DR - Fuck AI-generated music, making your own music, even if it doesn't sound as advanced as AI-generated music might sound, feeds the soul!

So, I've experimented with SunoAI and other music AI-related stuff for the last 3-4 weeks. 

Results? Yes, it makes better music than I currently make and will probably make for the next 1-2 years.

But honestly... it's boring as f*ck. At least if you have the drive and urge to create things by yourself. 

Music, similar to painting and photography, is art. No AI will ever replace the true human soul and touch behind the art. 

Yes, in terms of capabilities and skill, AI might be on the same level as humans, even beyond in some cases. 

But it's about the process—the process of creation. Creating means that I have total control over every possibility out there. I can shape/design sounds the way I want and add my own touch to it, so my inner creator feels fed. 

If I cannot control the process of creation, it feels like I am not living. 
Yes, AI music has its use cases. For example, if you need to have a banger tune for your travel video or whatever, it's a no-brainer choice. But if you have the urge to create something out of thin air, it will make you feel hungry as f*ck.

Caldera - Body 2002 (Bokhari Records)

We are delighted to welcome Swedish techno and deep house extraordinaire Dorisburg to the Phonica label family! 

Alexander Burg has had a rock-solid string of top-class releases on labels like Hivern Discs, Aniara and Northern Electronics in recent years, and his brand new EP ‘House Organ For The Lonely’ is certainly no exception to the rule. 

Comprised of three slow-building and ominous techno masterpieces - each set upon a bed of delicate synth-lines, off-kilter percussion work and whirring electronics. Perfect for those after-hours moments. 
Vinyl out now! You can also grab it digitally from all of your favourite sources (Spotify, Bandcamp, Beatport, Juno Download etc). Links below. Enjoy! 🙌

House Organ For The Lonely

Dorisburg - Rhythm Paint [PHONICA028]

Once upon a time, two operators stared at their screens. They sat silently for hours, their whole being dedicated to the task they had been assigned to. Days and nights passed in the same monotonous manner.

Suddenly signals showed up on their monitors. Alarms started to ring.

Both reacted at the same speed and did what they were supposed to do. Controls and commands were entered, as was protocol. After observing these waves for 61:01 minutes, everything became quiet again.

What they had just witnessed made them wonder. For the first time they addressed each other. "The data is transferring through our system," announced the first. “Let us both check how this can be interpreted.” The second validated the response. Together, they looked at what had been recorded. Ideas raced through their complicated minds until they realized simultaneously: sounds! They listened.

“Is this an unknown language?” one asked
“This is the first time this has been heard throughout our history,” the other answered.
They listened again and again.
“This electricity has been arranged to form a cohesive entity,” the first said.
“Why would machines be used to create that?” the second mused.
Something had awakened inside of them, an obsessive curiosity they had never experienced before. They did not understand and were blown away by the beauty of it.
“Do you think it could have been left by humans before us?” one whispered.
“If it was, these would be Major Signals,” the other concluded.
As they processed these thoughts, the two artificial intelligences sat still.

Irakli was born in Georgia when the country was still a part of the Soviet Union. He moved to Cologne before ending up in Berlin a decade ago and has been an active and interesting voice in the electronic music and club landscape of the city. First as a DJ and producer behind the I/Y and Intergalactic Research Institute For Sound labels, but also as one of the minds behind the STAUB collective. His artistic endeavors have brought him to contribute to books, exhibitions and movies. He has performed with classical orchestras and worked with artists and thinkers from all fields. He hasn’t been afraid to take a stance politically - in 2019 he collaborated with fellow Georgian producer Michailo whilst he was imprisoned. But most importantly, he loves the music, making it, sharing it, listening to it, dancing to it, and now he is presenting us with his first album on Dial.
