Spectral Voices #11 - Basis Change - 7.07.22

Hidolas - Dent De Lion [AEDI007]

‘Desired Array’ by Mythopoet epitomizes the experimental nature of this compilation. It is a tune that traverses techno and IDM with a beautiful soundscape and fat squelchy bass that hits the spot perfectly. The drums sound unpredictable and anxious like drowning in some kind of edge. The overall result is a dreamy and mystical creation that calls for a journey inward, putting you in a state of contemplation.

PREMIERE⚡️Claude B - Back In 94 [Collectif Solstice]

"Hope and Mind It" tells the story of three young artists (Voyager Solar System, ILYSS, and Quim) lost  in the mesmerizing embrace of late-night jam sessions. Reverberating with the glow of the nascent sunrays, they wholeheartedly crafted these 6 pieces of ethereal melancholia and cosmic tranquility. Through their collective bliss, they've woven an auditory tapestry that reads like a love letter to early Boards of Canada and Autechre, where simple elements intertwine with unexpected intricacies and soul-stirring melodies, proudly expanding further Bella Ursa's sonic universe. The EP is set to be released on Feb 7th across all digital platforms, along with a beautiful UV printed cassette.

PREMIERE⚡️Fifth Person - Shelter [Bella Ursa Records]

Arvid Wretman, AKA Your Planet Is Next, has assumed the role of musical storyteller with a serious mean streak of DIY electro. Wretman’s latest album tells its tale through the eyes of an imagined anti-hero. He conjures up the gritty underbelly of an over-populated megalopolis; a world of dilapidation, ruin and sin, where stiletto knives are a dime a dozen and our titular protagonist, the FOG MAN, stalks the streets. In an oddball tradition, there’s an absurdist, left-of-centre flex coursing throughout. This is the Stockholm native at his strangest, radiating fuck-off attitude and an embrace of imperfection as he maximises the potential of a limited studio setup. Bleak spoken word lyrics only serving to bolster the narrative storytelling, ‘Sad Fog’ paints a vivid picture of hardships endured, while ‘Fog Power’ resembles the inner dialogue of a man teetering at the edge of sanity. Think corrosive, industrial fug and rugged, tape-damaged torque. Through ‘No Fog’s menacing machine funk to the visceral, downbeat sleaze of ‘Freaks’ and queasy, Wolfenstein-sampling 'Eisenfaust’, the FOG MAN deals that dystopian gear in spades.

Adan Mor is a Brazilian artist making his Loose Records debut following many successful releases on his own imprint Fingers Records, along with other respected outlets such as Reload, IAMT, Gain Plus and Renesanz.
▬
His style combines gritty fast-paced percussion with modulating synths and tense atmospherics, to create hard-hitting tracks that have a dystopian vibe.
▬
Co-Founded by the late Rino Cerrone, Loose Records is a sister imprint to Unrilis and its Rilis series which has released by people ranging from DJ Dextro to Ritzi Lee.
▬
Exaltation is the title track, and it opens proceedings with broken rhythms and eerie atmospherics, which intertwine with the churning tones of the trippy lead synth.
