VA - Astraltopia
APR128 | Out Now

Available here: https://astralplanerecordings.bandcamp.com/album/astraltopia

Astraltopia is the third and final compilation in the Topia series, as well as the terminal release in the Astral Plane Recordings catalog. Made up of contributions from longtime APR artists and friends, Astraltopia traverses outgrowths of past label releases, novel sonic formulations and the infra-zones between and underneath extant club sounds. Accompanied by artwork from Sam Meier and mastering by Will Mitchell, the compilation follows 2012’s Heterotopia and 2015’s Psychotropia, both of which preceded the formal inauguration of Astral Plane Recordings. Contributions include material from Alis, Amazondotcom, CHANTS, Dane Law, LOFT, Maral, MICHAELBRAILEY (with Iceboy Violet), nunu and SHALT. Astraltopia is out now as a free and/or pay-what-you-want download.1. CHANTS - Seven Billion Spheres

Blood of Aza - Jerked

@icfam

The 43rd release of katharsis is the album “Love Language” by the Danish artist icfam. It is evocative like a long makeout session, tongue action specifically. icfam celebrates the long journeys to daydreamy destinations on a record that is romantic and peaceful, yet at times highly energetic.

Through streamlined synthesis and arrangements, icfam produces a composite world of sound that carries a message of love and simplicity. Despite the meticulous care for sound design on this record, the use of intuitive sounds and phrases so simple, sometimes approaches a sort of mindlessness. Building conceptually on sinewaves as the only sound that really exists, the artist develops a nonfragmented illusion through obsession over the harmonic series and melodies within melodies.

Love Language is both reassuring and mystifying, like your favourite lullaby. As well as intoxicatingly painful like exquisite torture. icfam wants to express a special feeling one might get from going to the hospital. A cathartic feeling of being safe and held.

If you’ve fallen from above
You’re walking with your woes
If there’s nowhere to run
The happy hospital
