Do You Like Sound?

Premiere: Fergus Sweetland - Do You Like Sound? [HYSEP47]

After years of working behind the scenes, Dutch artist and Eerste Communie resident https://soundcloud.com/hitam-electronix?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing launches his own label: ‘Rhiza Semar’, uniting artists who explore enigmatic, pyroclastic techno and leftfield electronics. For the inaugural release, he delivers a four-track deepdive into the first chapter of his sonic world with ‘Precious Skin’.

Precious Skin will be out on September 3rd, 2024. Pre-order a copy via https://rhizasemar.bandcamp.com/

Premiere: Hitam - Chanu Akan [RHIZA001]

Characterised by a discernible signature of harmonious yet implicit tensions, DJ and producer Hayden Payne’s (aka @phasefatale ) contentious palette of both precise sonic and narrative elements shape his world of techno. Presenting his second EP of 2024, ‘Altars’, the BITE Label boss forecasts a confessional state looking onto a decomposing world through the perspective of frenetic energy, evolving polyrhythmic sequences and fleshy dancefloor vigour. 

Built on a trifecta of three original productions, as well as two featured remixes from Kangding Ray and Setaoc Mass, the extended play is a walk through of Phase Fatale’s cadence for dancing around the structural framework of his tracks with superlative control, entwining rhythms from contrasting metres of electronic composition. Altars’ production of electric reverberation follows a trajectory of cybernetic kicks, stabs of short circuit zaps and heartbeat style drum loops embellished by the serene textures of euphoric gleams and sensual chords, augmenting a sonic motif of dystopian salvation. 

The remixes fortify the body of works gritty soundscape with Kangding Ray’s complex sound aesthetics delivering a frantic buzz of sonic tachycardia and Setoac Mass’ experimental spliced shrapnel from the tracks origin creating murky, blizzard-like scatterings. Walking a fine line between themes of the divine and sacrilegious, Phase Fatale’s conscious composition of hedonistic, multi-layered techno and complex world-building narratives further emphasises his production's structure and geometry.

Species-4

B2 TOMMY FOUR SEVEN  / O M 3

To speak to Luca Daniel Schwarz aka LDS about his music is to be enthusiastically guided into a complex world of his own creation: clean and powerful techno which pulses with life from the textured patterns and drum sequences that have fills and accents that would make anyone who's picked up a set of drumsticks envious.

Yet this ecosystem of noise is deceptive; Schwarz's process for making music is very different to how a live drummer would create the same subtlety of performance. Forever researching new technology, Luca got deeply interested in different programming languages, and created a series of probability based music tools for manoeuvring sounds and sequencing.

Manipulating those probabilities takes a skillful alchemy, needing understanding of both musical structure and how the tools he devised work. To return to the drummer analogy, if the drummer is focussed and intentional in the moment of playing, then the method used in LDS tracks is almost diametrically opposed, with all of the intention coming in the assembly of the instruments, potential paths, and gateways; once play is pressed the music flows, following all the rules that were set in advance, not unlike a domino run or Rube Goldberg machine.

And like a domino run, the results are fascinating and, ultimately, fun: staccato vocals pop in and out in 'zipp prompt'; laser-like synths pulse; background noises sweep across the aural plane of the dub techno of 'diff, blockmix' and 'pow' adding texture that brings vitality all-too-easily missed out when complex mathematical processes become entwined with music creation. The high sensitivity to texture and rhythmic detail in Stadion Progg is multiplied further on Jean Redondo's remix - whose track, Hypersonic, was the backbone of 2023's 'yet' compilation on Tresor.

The balance between technology and a sense of fun might also come from the maker; it's not easy to overstate Schwarz's passion for what is now his favourite way to make music, "it never gets boring. There's always a moment of anticipation to see what actually emerges." And the true "power of 2" comes into play when the resulting music can be fed back through the system again and again, potentiating the music in exponential ways.

Autonomic functions EP

Pre - Order

Urgula - Tethys [Premiere I HT096]

It's probably no exaggeration to say that the abstract, entertainingly confusing, James Holden-esque sound was quint-essential and defining for many of us when Border Community was founded and for a long time afterwards. The seemingly disordered, but intentionally controlled chaos permeated all the so-called underground music at that time and gave a boost to gigantic talents. This was also the case with two Swissmen, Mikro Loko and Ripperton as Lazy Fat People, put the best pieces of their careers on the table: the "Big City / Dark Water" EP was one of the most sold vinyl on the label. The track called "Dark Water" was an ultimate secret weapon of any James Holden performance around that time, he often opened his DJ sets with this one. Murky, chaotic, aggressive, vehement - everything that I love about this period of the Border Community sound.
Made exclusively for my "Treadwheel 02" mix, I strengthened things with vast grooves and reconstructed the whole track with a sudden mood switch after the breakdown. I think it's the perfect way saying goodbye to the summer and soon getting ready for colder times.
As always, you can grab it for FREE!
