In early 2023, Tresor Records will reissue the sole output from Shifted Phases entitled The Cosmic Memoirs Of The Late Great Rupert J. Rosinthrope. Initially released in 2002, soon after James Stinson passed away, this LP plays a mysterious and compelling role in the Drexciya journey. While other records of Drexciya and related projects have received numerous reprints and editions, The Cosmic Memoirs... has remained out of print since its release. This rarity leaves it more open to interpretation with its place in the Drexciyan storm series, as it became increasingly hard to find and underexplored. 

Track titles Solar Wind, White Dwarf, and Lonely Journey of the Comet Bopp reveal a focus on cosmic realms, suggesting a link with the Drexciya LP Grava 4 that moves from the underwater to the galactic. As it launches with mechanical blows on a precise orbit, each repetition entrenches the gravitational pull in the galaxy of Shifted Phases. In many places, it sounds like the readout of frequencies harvested from outer space, pockmarked with packet loss from the millions of kilometres distance travelled. 

The music is hard to contain, intuitively restless in motion through its unfolding universe and achingly resonant. It shapeshifts across affectedly melodic sequences such as in Lonely Journey..., to the sparse, hard-hitting timbres found in Alien Vessel Distress Call and the mangled reverse vocals in The Freak Show, somewhat reminiscent of another Drexciya side-project, Glass Domain. The mythology of Drexciya is evident in how keenly James Stinson and Gerald Donald created their imaginary worlds. In Crossing Of The Sun-Ra Nebula, there is an undisputable reference to another Afro-futurist who delved deep into a galaxy of their own making.

This reissue does not merely close the loop on Tresor's reissue series of the Drexciya catalogue but brings Shifted Phases to fresh ears more than other records. Accompanied by newly commissioned artwork from Matthew Angelo Harrison, the 3xLP vinyl reissue also features the tracks Crossing Of The Sun-Ra Nebula and Alien Vessel Distress Call, which were previously only on the original CD release.

BIO:
Józef Flakus, also known as Somnolent Works, is a producer, DJ, and music explorer based in Upper Silesia. He is passionate about breakbeat/jungle rhythms, old school electro, and techno music, often with robotic and strong elements. He loves to break conventions and explore new musical directions taken from different genres of music. The gritty and atmospheric landscape of factories, mines, and steelworks of his hometown region has had a significant impact on his music, particularly in its darker and more experimental elements. Somnolent Works' sound often reflects the mechanical rhythms and metallic textures of the industrial world, as well as the resilience and perseverance of the people who lived and worked in the region.
He is a regular member of the CEL club in Katowice, where he can be heard playing his eclectic selections from behind the decks. His latest releases include his debut EP titled "Surface Noise," which was self-released at the end of 2021. The EP showcases his distinctive style of noisy breakbeat rhythms, while also exploring new musical directions. In late 2022, he released the "Paperclip" single on the SKAN label compilation, which further demonstrated his ability to craft intricate and immersive soundscapes within the electro genre. On March 23rd, 2023, he is set to premiere a larger release on the POTOP label in Katowice.

“In this mix, I tried to find a nice middle ground between my old style and what I’ve been into lately. I’ve been moving away from four-on-the-floor rhythms and moving more towards broken patterns, but I wanted to throw in some bass infused, atmospheric and dreamy techno to tie it all together. Overall, the idea behind this mix was to go for a more clubby sound - energetic, percussive and hypnotic, but with some unexpected turns.”

PREMIERE | SCARLETT - Hard To Get To Sleep [TISR]

Hello la teaaam ! :)

Je suis de retour avec ce nouveau morceau bien particulier pour vous annoncer la couleur de l'été 2025 ! Un morceau Tekno Hybrid Prog inspiré par la Bass music et la Trance tout en gardant des racines bien Mental et Acid ! Je me suis aussi éclaté avec des nouveaux synthés comme celui de la mélodie désertique, bientôt je vous le joue au doigté en live :)

Vraiment un pur plaisir de travailler ce projet qui est donc la genèse du prochain EP que je vous concocte, "Bestiary". Un projet de 6 morceaux où chaque track sera illustrée par une créature dessinée par mes soins.

Ici nous avons donc à faire au Visiteur, une entitée assez particulière qui vous rend visite dans les moments de perdition. 
Ni bon, ni mauvais, le visiteur n'est pas vraiment considéré comme un monstre. Il est plus comme  un ange gardien déchu aux intentions inconnus. Toutefois il vous guidera lorsque la traversée du désert s'annonce plus compliquée que prévue... mais dans quel but ? 
A vous de le suivre, où de l'ignorer, le choix reste cornélien.

J'ai hâte de vous présenter les prochains monstres hihi ;)

Hybrid Tekno Prog - 145 bpm - Dmin



\English/

I'm back with this very special new track to announce the colors of summer 2025! A Tekno Hybrid Prog track inspired by Bass music and Trance while retaining its strong Mental and Acid roots :)

It truly was a pure pleasure to work on this project, which is the genesis of the next EP I'm putting together for you, "Bestiary." A 6-track project where each track will be illustrated by a creature I've drawn.

Here we have the Visitor, a rather peculiar entity who visits you in times of perdition.

Neither good nor bad, the Visitor isn't really considered a monster. He's more like a fallen guardian angel with unknown intentions. However, he will guide you when the journey through the desert proves more complicated than expected... but to what end?

It's up to you to follow him, or to ignore him; the choice remains difficult.

I can't wait to introduce you to the next monsters, haha ​​;)
