[GEO_03] Empathy

Alien Perspective

You might find that the piano playing at the beginning seems a little out of tune - that’s because I’m
not using the standard western scale known as equal temperament. I’ve actually tuned the piano in
line with the alp horn, the national musical instrument of Switzerland. It’s a really long (like, several
metre-long) horn with no holes in the sides so it actually plays in a natural harmonic overtone series,
so I think it gives the piano a beautiful clear resonance as well as (to western ears) a sort of gentle
wooziness. The rhythmic elements of the track are inspired pretty much directly by the original, just
translated into a quicker tempo with some added sound design. I’m really interested to hear what

people think!

Wordcolour - Bluster (Djrum Remix)

On the next All Centre release we welcome Montreal-based artist laced to the fold. The Causal Chain boss delivers a four track EP including a remix from fellow Canadian SIM.

The dreamy, dubbed-out pads and intricate minimal percussion of Bubble Beam ease us into the record. Stuttering kicks and deep subs kick things into gear, as the echoing chords fold in and out of themselves. Later, new harmonies and rhythmic switch-ups give further depth to the track, before closing with a glitched outro.

Next up, Caustic Reverie opens with hypnotic stabs and careful sound design, anchored by cavernous bass hits. The track breaks down before heavy broken techno rhythms emerge, 
with dubby chords and vocal chops dancing between them.

Future Sight brings the energy back down with a blissful ambient intro. Here, laced takes cues from ambient jungle, as precisely cut breakbeats weave amongst punchy sub bass hits and infectious melodies. Gradually the energy rises, allowing compelling kick drums to drive the track forwards.

Retaining the meditative pads of the original, SIM turns in a low-tempo rework of Future Sight. Rolling kick drums provide the basis for echoing chords and tripped-out sound design. The melodic elements are then stripped back, giving way to a dub inspired percussive section, before returning to the atmospheric tones of the introduction.

Caustic Reverie is out across all platforms on the 8th April.

Henzo - Stretford Blues EP (NHD006)

OUT 2/12/22

Tracklist:

1. Survivorship Bias
2. It's Ours and Hours Alone
3. Writhing
4. His Troublesome Knees
5. A Pocket You Didn't Expect

Finishing off Henzo’s banner 2022 that has seen releases on YCO and Peder Mannerfelt Produktion, the Manchester based producer dials back the tempo into 5 cuts of gloom-ridden dancefloor damagers for his Nervous Horizon debut. Running the gamut of Dancehall, Techno and Drum & Bass, the EP’s refined palette is laser-guided in its intention of favouring groove and atmosphere over melody and hooks.

The opening track, 'Survivorship Bias', rolls out a lurching and smudged drum break over an equally sketchy Donk and vocal sample in a Bolton-meets-Belgium chug affair. 'It’s Ours and Hours Alone' and 'Writhing' lean more towards a typical Dancehall rhythm, smattered with the reticulated percussion that Nervous Horizon have been known for, saturated and growling. 'His Troublesome Knees' sees a variation on the theme of the opener, with the addition of harrowing, gnarly strings that posit drama in the riff that runs almost throughout; An inescapable tension that juxtaposes the highly danceable groove. Rounding out Stretford Blues, 'A Pocket You Didn’t Expect' feels like 3 tempos at once: 82, 164 and 328BPM. The battering, unrelenting kicks laced over taut breaks and hats hark to Jungle Techno and Tech Step in their composition, but the drawn out and bleak orchestral breakdown, coupled with a barking, irate bassline, suggest that Henzo shows no allegiance to nostalgia and is moving intently into the future.

London based producer Vromm creates some wonderful beat science and future electronic jazz vibes on his debut recording for R&S Records.

With a penchant for UK bass and beats culture that has influenced him since the late 1980s, Vromm has released a steady stream of EPs over the last ten years for labels such as Critical Music, Over/Shadow, ThirtyOne Recordings and Om Unit’s Cosmic Bridge imprint.

On ‘Red Tuna’, Vromm opens a magic box of crunching breakbeat rhythms, dubwise reverberations and cold & jazzy synth licks for an impressively intelligent and modern track that dips into many electronic genres and becomes something truly unique.

COP ENVY - CRY002
OUT AUGUST 2018
Global distribution via Rubadub.

Sydney via Melbourne-sider Cop Envy brings forth two heartbursting, patient and effective tools to mark the return of the Cry Baby imprint - long silent after their debut exploration with Dan White.

The anachoic, blistering tones of Balanced push the vinyl medium to it's absolute limits with Heavy, HEAVY bass and incredulously well produced embellishments making this a DJ tool for the year 3000.

Leisure laces the flip with something a little closer to the present day no thanks to barely melodic musical structures peeling away to reveal the rhythmic intricacies and soul rattling subsonics that roll effortlessly through to the bitter end. REWIND.
