HD Mix #091 - Kafkactrl

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)

Release Info :

SMPL SMPL - Mistika EP (Remixes)

Vilnius, Lithuania-based SMPL SMPL’s Mistika, an EP with a half-dozen original tracks set for vinyl, is simply powerful on its own merit. Tack on five remixes on the digital edition by Francois Dillinger, Ivna Ji, Lloyd Stellar, Jauzus The Shining, and Arsonist Recorder, and it’s now an explosive sonic journey

“Dark & Dangerous” sets the stage for crumpling glitches, distant drones, and heavy bass echoes as far as the eyes can see. “Vapour” provides additional drifting sound vistas, its beats tangled in a maze of brisk breaks and resounding audio production as “Treasures” floats in reverberating ambient-electronic bliss tethered to emotionally melodic strings of life.

The closing remixes offer additional masterful interpretations. Francois Dillinger unfolds a darker, more menacing version of “Crystalization” as Ivna Ji takes “Layers” through Detroit-inspired synths and technoid sound sculptures. Lloyd Stellar’s rendition of “A Quite Place” douses the original in faster-paced mechanics and hard-hitting beatwork. Jauzus The Shining’s “Dark & Dangerous” remix adds turbulent synth strands and rolling low-end—still just as punchy as the original. Closing with Arsonist Recorder’s “Vapour” remix, Mistika succumbs to its ultimate demise. The vaporous electrical notes still intact, Arsonist Recorder applies ample industrial-electro layers of dust and debris, flowing in parallel to the original, and maintaining the EP’s unavoidable magnetic pull.

TL PREMIERE : SMPL SMPL - Layers (Ivna Ji Remix) [Specimen Records]

Manasyt vs Sam Lowry. A clash, mashup and/ or battle between two minds yet one and the same face. Hailing from the the twilight zone, Bulgaria. 
The currently Xiamen, China based Petar Tassev, has joined the forces of his alter egos on this 9 tracker. A side 4 celestial and daring Electro tracks followed by the more eerie B side. A experimental, future horror movie-like sound. Thrilling in all the right ways!
Very suiting new release on the Bunker Records.

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)”

LectrO cOd_E - Savidge Machine [WOOD117]

Preview : https://soundcloud.com/woodworkrecordings/lectro-cod_e-savidge-machine-wood117-preview

LectrO cOd_E returns in full force with five staggering cuts sure to pulverize the boogie.  'Savidge Machine' rolls and bounces in that hyperactive manner we've come to expect from this prolific creator of no-nonsense electro.

The title cut hides a subliminal vocoder backdrop behind a chunky punch-up of thick breaks.  In direct continuation but slight contrast, 'Deep' takes over, lit up with neon bleep melodics and washes of metallic noise... a delicate weaving of synth lines rides this one out.

'Calkachu' brings an updated take on the signature manic LectrO cOd_E vibe, fusing a flurry of juicy synth hooks with some robotic posturing, filling the track's hefty mold of sub, breaks and popping percussion.

'LectrO Maniac' unwinds into strips of mechanical rhythm, shifting emphasis with each razor sharp transition. Spacious pockets in the beat show off a dirty pitched 808 bassline and leave space for an evolving mix.

'Modulated' tops the collection with a boombastic drum jam, strewn with pitchy nuances and stuttering effects breaks.  Woodwork alumni, Pablo Splice jumps on board with a remix of this one, adding a meandering bass hook to his revamped set of LectrO cOd_E beats. An extended tag rocks the floor with a barrage of abstract robot speak.

Tracklist :
01. Savidge Machine
02. Deep
03. Calkachu
04. LectrO Maniac
05. Modulated

SHADOW MECH SONIC

"Unhappy" is a moody electronic piece that fuses ambient synths, subtle glitch textures, and deep bass to paint a sonic portrait of emotional isolation. The track pulses with restrained energy — a slow build of melancholy wrapped in digital atmosphere.
A minimalist journey through introspection, produced with precision by NEO SILVER.
