Autodidact producer based in Marseille, Lois Lazur is a sound artist evolving on the borders of varied musical styles which rub shoulders and sometimes intersect, very gently.
This first mini-album “Half Of A Hand” poses as a manifesto, subtly turning towards post-club music, structured around slow grooves where the bass is heavy and the percussions pile up on jerky rhythms.
Always rhythmic, often very melodic and although sung, his electronic music with Indus, Acid and Dub sounds, illustrates a poetic and metaphysical aim: an invitation to encounter, to the inhibition of gender and class barriers on a variegated dancefloor and certainly caring.

Tracklist: 

Dool - Missing Twin - Momento Mori - Pinson's Tale - Verdanson - God Is Dead

READ > inverted-audio.com/premiere-acid-springfield-troglodyte

Three months after releasing ‘Capsule‘, Melbourne via Brooklyn-based producer Acid Springfield gears up to issue his new album ‘Primitive Landscapes‘...Our pick from the album is 'Troglodyte'. In the sacred mountains of Dandenong, the producer presents a mesmerising downtempo fable that evokes visions of cavemen hunting. As the track opens with rainforest field recordings and digital soundscapes derived from uncanny constellations, it transforms into a space-time hypnosis of ceremonial percussion and a delirium of strange frequencies accompanied by faraway utterances reminiscent of mystical beings.

READ > inverted-audio.com/tegu-2x12-feat-wave-temples

Our pick for today's premiere is "2x12", featuring fellow Floridian Wave Temples. Utilizing a mesmeric drum pattern and woozy keys, the collaboration is absolute gold. It combines the best elements of each artist while seamlessly blending a new sound that's equal parts long lost star map and terrestrial beacon into a bold new soundscape. Tune out the chaos of the news and social media and escape into the lush, serene garden of "2x12" and Tegu's vision that's laid out brilliantly on Owl Island.

Taken from "Procida Ritual Project  - Misteri LP (Salgari Records)". Out December 02nd 2024. Buy here : https://procidaritualproject.bandcamp.com/album/misteri

“Procida Ritual Project is not the romantic and visionary idea of an island anchored to its roots, but a convinced path aimed at giving new life to the sounds of ritual celebrations of the Procidan community.”
Pier Paolo Polcari, composer, producer and co-founder of the iconic Neapolitan band Almamegretta, returns with a new musical work “Procida Ritual Project.”
The project, with a strongly anthropological and Mediterranean feel, conceived together with Leonardo Scotto di Monaco, an artist and scholar of local traditions, is developed within the “Procida Capital of Culture 2022” program and was created with the aim of enhancing tradition, protecting the past by projecting it into the future, preserving identities, making generations dialogue, with the aim of saving the enormous intangible cultural heritage of the island of Procida from extinction.
The key to the project is a database of “field-recordings” in the core of which we find the celebrated rites of Settimana Santa and the Processione dei Misteri: a veritable mine of identity made up of symbols that advance on the traces of centuries-old echoes.
The ancient matrices, which will remain recognizable, give rise to evocative paths of authorial reworking in an electronic key, with the contribution of important musicians such as Daniele Ubik (sax, percussion, hang and voices) and Marzouk Mejri (darbouka, Tunisian flute, voices and percussion).
Among the most evocative sources of inspiration is the “Menerio,” a large peasant bonfire that the people of the island used to light, ideally greeting the beginning of spring: a purification rite that in the past was introduced by invocations and drum rolls and that Procida Ritual Project brings back to life.
The first single “Ritual” resonates with devotional songs dedicated to the Madonna delle Grazie, which the faithful chant in July: a kind of dialectal rosary with ancestral sounds and tones. And again, cues for the construction of this project come from the dialect novena that, at the end of October, on the long eve of the celebration of the dead, the faithful are wont to sing in a collective rite created to exorcise death.
RITUAL PROJECT PROCIDA also becomes the name of a live band, which aims to continue experimenting and researching, live and in the recording studio, from now on, through the publication curated by Salgari Records in digital format and on vinyl, in a limited edition of three hundred copies.
The graphics are by Federico Spini, who reworked the valuable photographic material by Roberta Riccio, in which the Turchini are portrayed during the Venerdì Santo procession.

Blue Booth (27/11/24)

Krokakai aka Kyle Webster is at the controls for the second Invisible Inc's digital-only release. Ranging from tribal sci-fi rave to new wave electro and then powering onwards to almost industrial sounding slo-mo techno, the machines under Krokakai's control are perfectly tuned for Invisible Inc.'s dark side.

Out on April 22nd!

Pre-order!

PRÈMIÉRE: Krokakai - Bodhran Beat [Invisible, Inc.]

Wilson Tanner (Andras and Eleventeen Eston) return to shore with II - a new album of floating melodies, lightly salted. The 12 min odyssey Killcord Pts I-III battens down the hatches as these sailors eye merciless waves and blinding ocean spray, channelling Berlin-school electronics and sea legs.

Wilson Tanner - Killcord Pts I-III (ES013)

Wilson Tanner come to shore with a new album of floating melodies, lightly salted. Throwing electroacoustic conventions overboard, Andrew Wilson (Andras) and John Tanner (Eleventeen Eston) recorded this new work aboard a 1950s riverboat with a resourceful array of weatherproof electronic instruments and a long extension lead. These eight compositions pull in a by-catch of maritime folklore; of Siren and Selkie, Seagull and engine oil slick. A change of course from their debut album 69 (Growing Bin Records, 2016), the ambient temperature drops as II casts out to sea in uncertain weather and returns to the safe harbours of Port Phillip Bay. 

The seafarers head out to My Gull’s poised optimism. The birds watch but do they listen? By the arrival of Loch and Key, the shoreline has dissolved completely, the boat floating in serene infinity as the rest of the world spins. Conditions soon take a treacherous turn on Killcord Pts I-III - a 12 minute odyssey that battens down the hatches as these sailors eye merciless waves and blinding ocean spray, jointly channelling Berlin-school electronics and sea legs. In the aftermath, the waterlogged bleeps of Idle survey the damage as our parched crew sound the distress signal and ultimately descend into delirium. 

Known for navigating individual courses as solo musicians, Wilson and Tanner’s collective storytelling is saturated in detail, buoying between tension and harmony. II modestly stands as some of both artists’ most accomplished material.

A1. By The Light Of The Pyramids
B1. Postcards From Gortupal

In an era of boundless self promotion, anonymity is a rare and precious thing. Listening to Trevor Jackson's NTS show one night we heard a glorious piece of music by something called Elite Beat. A quick search found 10 years worth of recorded material but not a single photo or youtube clip. They had made a record with Niger born guitarist Mdou Moctar but were based in Portland, Oregon. More questions than answers but we knew we had just heard one helluva cosmic link up! 

We still don't know what they look like but we can tell you Elite Beat is a 6 piece ensemble now in their 12th year as a musical collective. Their sound is non prescribed rhythm music with an emphasis on live playing, free form expression and dubbing techniques. Players who have absorbed the plethora of global grooves from dub, Ethiopoques and Tuareg guitar music (probably the odd Dead bootleg too). They aren't retromaniacs or here to revive a genre. Just some cats from Oregon talking that universal language, fueled by laugher and a vision of the eternal.

Elite Beat - By The Light Of The Pyramids (RREP03)

Three emotional years in the making, Be With and Efficient Space finally present Steve Hiett’s Girls In The Grass. Pressed alongside the long awaited reissue of his one-shot masterpiece Down On The Road By The Beach, these ten balearic soul instrumentals are of equal necessity; unrivalled beauty rescued from the fashion photographer-guitarist’s Paris Tapes (1986-1997). 

While recordings unintended for release should often be approached with caution, this is a rare case of unheard material being assembled as an indispensable and coherent piece. Girls In The Grass is something super special. The light and shadow that defines Hiett’s music is arguably more compelling here. It speaks to us in a language that feels profound, yet entirely comforting and familiar. 

Girls In The Grass reintroduces Hiett’s languid electric blues boogie, crafted on Saturday afternoons with fellow art director Simon Kentish. Kentish would cook, pour some wine and then utilise his arsenal of technology. He’d dial up a chugging rhythm, together with some ambient pads or keyboard textures, and anchor the weightless gauze of Hiett’s six-stringed touch. 

Hiett’s guitar sings with the same clean, crisp tone as Down On The Road, animated by a carefree weekend groove. Unlike his defining album which was boiled under pressure, these subsequent sessions have all the time in the world. The naïve melodies chart a missing link between Vini Reilly’s ventures into electronica and Booker T, sounding like sun-warped takes on wordless, fractured non-hits from his heroes The Beach Boys. 

Remastered for public pleasure by Simon Francis, these private moments are adorned with Hiett’s singular photography and feature typically idiosyncratic liner notes from Mikey IQ Jones.
