Bosnian producer/dj @gymnastyy, operating from The Hague, joins Loafy Tunes prior to his debut EP soon to be released by the Rotterdam based Astronomers Anonymous Records. He brings a fast paced, high energy mix with a ‘take-no-prisoner’ kind of attitude. As his handle blatantly suggests, the mix is packed with electro, ghetto house and pretty much anything in between that will make you shake your ass. The vibe never ceases to be interesting as Gymnasty branches in and out of a variety of closely knit sub genres. Enjoy the mix and keep your eyes and ears open for his debut EP.

Connecticut's Jon Beall, recording as Entro Senestre, has gained critical acclaim thanks to brilliant releases on labels like W.T. Records, Echovolt and L.I.E.S.. On his debut for Dekmantel, Beall has taken his signature vintage flavors of techno and electro and pushed them into news spheres of the frightening, combining chalky, continuous drum tracks with an ear for emotionally challenging melodies. Championing timeless electro-techno that breathes real soul, this four tracker does Senestre proud and alters a dynamic EP that is ear-piercing and contemplative, nifty and evocative.

｢Ammut Remixes｣ breathes new life into the Seoul-based collective Raw Hearts’ first single ｢Ammut｣. Ten artists from around the world—B E N N, Entrañas, mana, LOBOTOME, 7ip7o3, Mazefromfar, Mon Amour, Tabris, YAWNISH, Yetsuby—reinterpret the track from their own perspectives, resulting in an album that fluidly crosses the boundaries of genres such as Latin core, experimental club, dubstep, and drum and bass.
By inviting artists active in different global scenes to deconstruct and reconstruct ｢Ammut｣, the track transforms and expands like a living network. This project encourages a practice of not passively consuming music but of reimagining, remaking, and sharing it together. It also maps out the global underground connections to which Raw Hearts aspires.

｢Ammut Remixes｣는 Raw Hearts의 첫 번째 싱글 ｢Ammut｣에 새로운 숨결을 불어넣는다. 전 세계에서 모인 10명의 아티스트—B E N N, Entrañas, mana, LOBOTOME, 7ip7o3, Mazefromfar, Mon Amour, Tabris, YAWNISH, Yetsuby—가 각자의 시선을 통해 곡을 재해석하며 완성한 이번 앨범은 라틴 코어, 익스페리멘털 클럽, 덥스텝, 드럼 앤 베이스 등 장르의 경계를 유연하게 넘나든다.
서로 다른 글로벌 신(Scene)에서 활동하는 아티스트들을 초대해 Ammut을 다시 해체하고 재구성하게 함으로써, 곡은 살아 있는 네트워크처럼 변주되고 확장한다. 이는 음악을 수동적으로 소비하지 않고, 새롭게 상상하고 다시 만들며 함께 나누는 실천을 보여주는 프로젝트이자, Raw Hearts가 지향하는 글로벌 언더그라운드 연결의 지도를 그려내는 작업이다.

Peramen! A Compilation for Belarus

“Change! Our hearts demand it. Change! Our eyes demand it”, sings Kino’s Viktor Tsoi in “Peremen”. This song may now be heard on the streets of not just Minsk and Grodno, but also Babruysk, Brest, Gomel, Mogilev, Pinsk, Vitebsk and what – at least to a foreign onlooker – looks like countless Belarussian cities and towns engulfed in protest. Following years of Alexander Lukashenko’s rule, another rigged election, omnipresent violence perpetrated by the state apparatus, censorship and draconian laws, the people have taken to the streets en masse. This is not the first time the Belarusians are out to protest, but the scale of these disturbances is unprecedented. Also unprecedented is the fact the rallies are led by women, who head the peaceful marches that have spread onto the streets of Belarus. Workers, miners, teachers, employees of the media and the Minsk underground as well as artists from the Belarusian State Philharmonic have all joined the protests. They stand against lies, demand the transparency of public life, and access to power. As they rally against repression and torture, they expose themselves to the same.

The artists featured on the Peramen! compilation also demand changes. While we cannot physically join the protesters on the streets of Belarus, we want to offer them at least this form of support. Our thoughts are with our friends – and with all the people who have been arrested, beaten, and humiliated. We join in the grief of families of all those murdered in the protests.

The compilation covers a broad selection of genres: from club music, through classical and experimental classical, to noise, ambient, and rock; from pieces that were composed to ones that were improvised or inspired by folk music. Its geographical scope is similarly broad, spanning Belarus, Czechia, Poland, Slovakia, Ukraine, USA, Russia, and Hungary.

Future Life

Pablo Splice steps up with some new business. It's hard to pin down exactly where this fits in but it definitely spans a few styles of electro with a twist of techno and some deep analogue house. It's also safe to say these tracks probably don't sound too much like anything else.

'Do the work' takes a moment to lay out the cardboard, then it kicks off - a relentless glitchy bass hook powering through an 8-minute routine with alternating levels of intensity. Use with caution.

'2 the 9s' promises to make it weird... and it also promises a world of stank face in the place. If you like your electro with a dose of minimal techno, and a nod to drum n bass or something wobbly in the bass realm, this should be quite pleasing.

'Psionic' could be considered the emotive ballad of the set. Melodic and deep, this one vibes on 808 electro breaks spaced to the extremities. A series of stabs and spacious melodic hooks cascade in layers, a little bit sci-jazz-fi...

Revising '2 the 9s' is one of electro's trippiest producers by far... he leaves a distinct mark wherever he appears and instantly left a mark on Pablo Splice since first hearing his unbelievably cool track, 'Rush Hour'... and that's exactly why he was highly coveted for a remix... it's a special honour to have a remixer casually re-craft an original that was in truth, directly inspired by their music... as anticipated, Fleck E.S.C. graciously delivers both his signature funk and weird - fresh and direct from Tokyo...

Adding a sugar coating to his own recent 'Magnetic Incursions' EP released for Woodwork, the esteemed Jay Tripwire contributes a rendition of 'Psionic' that is true to form, relentlessly groovy and dubbed-out with his signature voodoo-minimalist flair...

...But rounding off the entire bill is none other than Gez Varley, G-Man himself. For Pablo Splice, Gez had mad influence as a bleep techno pioneer in the legendary outfit LFO, through to his post-industrial minimal techno as G-Man that has set new standards since the late 90s. G-Man was enlisted to mold the chosen original mix into something that would legitimately become his own. The absolute artistry of what resulted is a pristine example of elegance and ease. Somehow he reduces 'Do the Work' to nothing but a stem cell and re-imagines the inescapable hook in its simplest possible form. A select few can craft a mix so subtle, hypnotic and addictive.
