Saint Abdullah's 'Where do we go, now?' out now on cassette and digital edition via PTP.

All proceeds of this album go to the New York Immigration Coalition:

“'Where do we go, now?' captures the sounds, stories, and full weight of what it feels like to live in a country, and broader political context, that considers one’s identity as the root of all its problems. We are are not in search of answers, or a path forward; we are in the mood to grieve, the only way we know how.”

A cavern of noise, dizzying loops, field recordings, and free jazz. Saint Abdullah is the sonic language of Iranian-Canadian brothers, Mohammad and Mehdi.

Lil Asaf - Sawa Sawa
APR126 | Out July 31

Pre-order: https://astralplanerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/sawa-sawa

Following January's "Msll777" single, we're proud to deliver Lil Asaf's Sawa Sawa. Produced by Beirut-born, Berlin-based artist Khadije, Sawa Sawa bundles fragmented sonics with Lil Asaf's devilish vocal performance. Air horns, chimes, blast beats and wheezing rhythmic arrangements make up Sawa Sawa's backing. The beats knock as much as they disarm, utilizing a capacious approach to empty space undergirded by a copious and pernicious drone.

Asaf, also known as Bashar Suleiman, has honed his hectic, dim lit approach to rap across previous releases for ANBA and HIZZ هز. Riding roughshod over his own and Khadije's production, Suleiman delivers line after line of scraped expression into the pitch dark spaces between beats. Dub effects and the flinty corners of broken kick patterns form walls to bounce off of, filled by repeated refrain and howling sub vocals.

Sawa Sawa means “together together,” a phrase Bashar’s grandfather would say to him and his brother when they fought as children. This spirit is embodied in the circumstances behind its recording, born from a chance meeting between the two artists and recorded in several impromptu sessions. Sawa Sawa is accompanied by a music video for “3wwe”, directed by Yusra Nazek.

B1 The Diffuser

Artist: @yilanmusic
Catalogue Number: IM085
Album: Suddenly I Am Falling
Release Date: January 29th, 2021
Format: Digital

Emerging for his second release on Infinite Machine following his highly acclaimed 'Regression' EP with Amazondotcom and Superfície, Leeds - based producer Yilan returns for 'Suddenly I Am Falling'.

The title track opens with polyrhythmic kicks, electric hats and cataclysmic atmospheres that are set to send the dancefloor into a frenzy.

'Static Void' is an authentic Techno Dancehall masterclass with a sharp snare dancing around the syncopated pulse of the track.

Collaborating with Ren for third track, 'Niffler', sees the duo lurking into 90BPM territory for an unstoppable groove with razor-sharp percussive brutality and a masterclass in futuristic sound-design that expands across the entire audio spectrum.

Track four, 'Underwater Construction', is a halftime roller with ramped up distorted hits that emanate from an abandoned warehouse, like machinery exhaling.

'AFADS', featuring collaborator Ebb, launches things back into a rolling abyss like a ticking time bomb of kick drums that poke and play around paranoid lazer stabs and an astounding middle section that will leave you gulping in shock.

Closing the record out with an ambient work 'Lost Signals' portrays softer timbres of birdsong and synthesised windchimes, allowing time to reflect on what is one of the most inspiring talents to come out of the UK underground.

Tracklist:

1. Suddenly I Am Falling
2. Static Void
3. Niffler (with Ren)
4. Underwater Construction
5. AFADS (with Ebb)
6. Lost Signals
