Martin Kuška, better known as Troniq or, by his more dance-oriented alias, GoodbyeMirage, is a truly extraordinary producer based in a village surrounded by the exceptional natural environment, a vast Central Bohemian forests growing above meanders of the river Berounka... He also wrote a book about this countryside and places within it. This close contact with nature has surely and obviously affected his influences with an organic feel, and the ambience of neverlasting processes embracing the circle of life, its ending and recovery, which can be best seen outdoors around us all…

Two reimagined tracks show an artistic transition within his two alter-egos through time (a remix of Awali, which was supposed to be on the planned second single for her LP - after the label’s very first release  - but never came out), and shows his evolution in both production knowledge and the home-studio hardware, surrounded by synths from the era he draws inspiration from, and the aforementioned natural cycles. The youth and an aged experiences bound together, the same as his musical and also physical journeys - trips through the country, and the moods of the unique landscape around the medieval castles Křivoklát, Točník and Žebrák...

This mirrors also the soft but frozen ‚Snowflakes on Blankets‘ with the warm breath of mankind`s voice (it is not a coincidence that both songs are originally sung by ethereal female vocalists). Martin initially marked his early style dreamtronica, creating atmospheric slow-mo house, interweaving sounds with hypnagogic states and contrasting feelings for the Environment and its position in todays‘ world.

Time has passed and enhanced by his equipment of historic synthesizers, he took over one of our contemporary releases, and with a `Hypnotic Mix‘ has bubblingly spiraled you into dizzying ravings while letting undecided if you're about to dance or dispel.

Music is the cure

Premiere requests - shapes.electric@gmail.com

There is an old primal feeling which seems to emanate from Aleksandr L. As a youngster he used to love sharing tapes amongst his friends and family: sharing is caring… Maybe music served as some form of escapism to the cold and grey Lithuanian weather?

His next step and natural evolution from analog to digital gave place to a podcast series: Electric Shapes. Another remedy in the form of music which eventually turned into the label of the same name, thanks to his partner in crime Jokios Kulturos’s prolific contributions. The sound of Electric Shapes is clearly aimed at an open minded dancefloor bridging the long gone days of alternative raves with the clubs of today. Amongst a continuous (broken) beat the catalogue is also peppered with some more downtempo and relaxed tunes which are a perfect partner to the end of the night or the start of a new day. The main purpose being to spread the love and bring peace through sound: Music is the cure.
