Lost In Ether | Podcast #210 | Evigt Mörker

BIO:
The unsettling terrain of Evigt Mörker's world can be broken up into a few frenetic parts that give the overall impression of a serene habitat. There's the otherworldly foreground of his techno works that are blissfully psychedelic as well as carefully structured for the most subtly disorientating shifts, and hovering amongst this is his wholesome grasp on the purpose and consequence of melody. Together, this is Evigt Mörker's deadly and addictive mix.

Hailing from Sweden, some initial forays into bands in his youth went hand-in-hand with an early exposure to techno. Yet it was the illegal rave scene in Stockholm that would prove to be most formative. The circuit of DJing and parties soon fed into the need to create a platform from which to work, and so the identity and label Evigt Mörker came into being in 2013. The first three releases cemented Evigt Mörker's ability to rouse melodic dynamics out of an ambient setting. Whether settling and fixating on a rhythmic pattern, or shuffling through different emotions, often these tracks would career into rapturous dancefloor pieces. It didn't take long until the formidable Semantica Records tapped him for a release, which produced the stunning EP, 'Helmet of Bones.' From this point, Evigt Mörker would come under the austere wing of Northern Electronics. Two terse yet incandescent EPs, along with a fourth release on his own label, have charged the air for his debut album, 'Krona'. Appearing on Northern Electronics, a brooding intensity defines the album, as well as a technical dexterity for carving dissonance into lush techno tools.

For those that have witnessed Evigt Mörker live or as DJ, a different side to his recorded output comes into play. Often far more forceful than his releases, there's an energetic and rhythmic power reserved for these moments. It's perhaps this versatility that's kept him in such high demand as a remixer. Taken to the other end of the spectrum, Evigt Mörker's live shows are capable of elegant ambient pieces, if holding a dancefloor down isn't the modus operandi.

Lost In Ether | Podcast #210 | Evigt Mörker

Ho ho ho, the mystery-shrouded Rrose - named after Marcel Duchamp’s eponymous persona, punches in right on cue for Xmas with an absolute monster of a two-hour jaunt into their exquisitely twisted headspace. Having served up some of the finest techno slabs of the past decade through the likes of Sandwell District, Stroboscopic Artefacts and now their own dedicated imprint, Eaux, Rrose steps in the series with a bonkers mix of dusty techno hustle-and-bustle, neatly alternating sequences of pumping 4x4 aerobatics, searing, noise-adjacent outbursts and eerie melodies to hypnotic effect. A constant balancing act of raw power and haunting score, Rrose’s RYC mix takes us on a deep and fascinating trip into genre-unbound territories, where only abandon and wildness reign supreme. Happy EOY celebrations, y’all! See you in 2024.

The long running stirrings of Surgeon (Anthony Child) and Regis (Karl O’Connor) under the conjunct British Murder Boys are not for the faint of heart. Their alleged final act came before a Tokyo crowd in 2012, but the goodbye only lasted three years and with their Amsterdam return, a reformulation of their signature industrial sound. The duo, both at their acme with little signs of descent, have together found a hybrid techno that scales high and large, bringing together thumping bass and hissing feedback for a distinctly belligerent and primal club sound. It’s not all obvious, their 2020 cover of Lou Reed’s Real Good Time Together offered a machine-inflected spin on the original, and opened the door for their debut LP Active Agents And House Boys (2024). At the heart is a provocative, sexually-charged and punkish techno that offloads bristling rhythms and defiant energy, one that’s a little more controlled and mathematical in practice. Following on from their show at Bassiani back in November comes this next mix. Bassiani Podcast 250 is an hour-long and live recorded assault: thrashing beats, crazed and bleepy arps, EBM-style shouts, a decadent and rageful call to arms and one of the most important instalments in this long running series. Back-breaking industrial techno from these two heavyweights and originators of the Birmingham sound.

unnatural versions 017 | @Darkduction

Darkduction, artist and sound explorer, delivers in Unnatural Versions 017 a unique experience: a 100% improvised Live where ambient, experimental and textures are the core of the sound narrative. This episode represents a deep exploration of spontaneity in music, an invitation to dive into a space where sound develops organically, without predefined structures or fixed patterns.

From the first moments, the set envelops us in a dense and enveloping atmosphere, where each sound layer is woven in real time. Unlike a conventional session, here there are no pre-rehearsals or set sequences, just a pure connection with the moment, allowing the sounds to flow freely and find their own form. The absence of a rigid framework gives way to unrestricted exploration, where each sound becomes a living element that evolves and transforms as the set progresses.

The use of textures plays a crucial role in this release, with layers of noise, fuzzy harmonies and spatial effects that generate a feeling of total immersion. Darkduction manages to build a sonic universe in which the perception of time is distorted, guiding us through changing soundscapes that invite introspection and sensory discovery. A work designed to be listened to attentively, allowing each sound to resonate and come alive in the listener's mind.

Throughout the episode, the balance between the ethereal and the tangible is masterfully maintained. Moments of silence and open spaces contrast with dense and complex passages, generating a dynamic that maintains a constant state of anticipation. The transitions are subtle but effective, allowing each fragment to integrate naturally into the overall construction of the set.

With this episode, Unnatural Versions opens a space for pure exploration of sound, highlighting the value of improvisation as a tool for artistic creation. Darkduction reminds us that music is a living entity, in constant change, and that the real magic happens when the artist gives himself completely to the moment.

Unnatural Versions 017 is an experience for those looking for something beyond the conventional, an invitation to close your eyes, open your ears and immerse yourself in a sonic journey without maps or established routes.

isn’t polished.
It’s not “ready” or “radio perfect.”
It’s just real.
From broken loops to honest glitches – each track in Raw Fix: No Filter was released as-is.
No edits. No second guesses.
FDD591 to FDD600 are sound-drafts of the soul.

🎧 Come as you are. Listen as it is.

REGIS - 'GODFLESH SUPPORT SET' 15:9:2015 @ 'WARSAW'. GREENPOINT, BROOKLYN.

Stanislav Tolkachev has been turning out experimental techno for more than a decade but might never have been as prolific as he is now. Hot on the heels of an EP on Raw Waxes that brimmed with dark IDM invention, this month sees him serve up his fourth full length, It Will Be Too Late Then. It finds the Ukrainian serving up controlled machine made chaos, cavernous grooves and his trademark arpeggios across nine forward thinking tracks. 

All this and more is showcased on his podcast for us. Tolkachev’s compulsive rhythms are the foundation for what is an end of days soundtrack that takes you from the heat of a percussive battle to a charred and desolate landscape. It’s cinematic music rich in texture, blistering drums and sharp melodies that is beautiful in its brutality.
