FÆ⁰⁰¹ - DAIMON MAKES SURFACE

Daimon transcends the shore, venturing into the depths of the forest and embracing its wild roots. 

Embark on an experimental journey with our first compilation where the primitive meets the contemporary, where tribes meet spacefarers.

The artists on this 1st VA brought their hidden faces to the surface, creating a singular yet harmonious vision of sound.

Aykan - Etheric

Conjuration of ethereal beings is the main purpose of JC Laurent's music. Diving in deep DnB atmospheres, sometimes euphoric, sometimes extatic, the french producer's universe is to be apprehended as a whole. For his first contribution to the label catalogue, he seems to have find the quintessence of what BNJ is all about : a magic road to both inner and outer unexplored lands.

JC Laurent - Trigger

General Merchant’s latest V/A, Metal Form Suite, explores the myriad corners of Eora’s rapidly developing underground scene. Across the V/A, a packed cast of the area's emerging talent ties together diverse strains of techno, DNB, psy-trance and IDM, with each bearing the imprint of the area's burgeoning identity of bass-heavy reverie and psychedelic flourishes.

A fresh take on 𝗥𝗠 𝗘𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶's acclaimed first EP, 𝗗𝘆𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝗦𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗶𝘅𝗲𝘀 is a collection of 4 hybrid pieces between the abstract and the concrete, from mental mazes to straight club thumpers. 
Featuring experts of the emerging underground renaissance with a heavy focus on atmospherics and refined sound design - 𝗞𝗮𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗦𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼, 𝗣𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁, 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 and 𝗔 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 ✧

French deep-bass explorer 𝗔 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗪𝗲𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 ends this release with a full-on 170 bpm missile. A steamroller of a track driven by effervescent sound design and a syncopation-assisted halftime kick, building pressure bar by bar - utterly inescapable.

DESCRIPTION

 "I remember making this during some freezing days between Christmas and New Year's. The main groove that started the whole track was initially generated by those little red lights that you normally put on your bike. I placed the lamp in front of a light sensor, which transforms the light into sound pulses. The lamp had a sequence of flashes that the sensor detected and the result was the main beat. I also remember experimenting with various AI tools to generate sound material, which I used as a starting point to modulate it."

PREMIERE: Esgeem - SolarGL

Vous Non delivers a deep sonic artifact that blurs the line between nature and machine.

It guides the listener through a misty maze of dense textures and hypnotic percussion, where a distant voice speaks in tongues from another dimension, as if unraveling their fate. Ficus virens emerges as the living entity it truly is—a hemi-epiphyte capable of reshaping its environment, extending its floating roots across time and surface.

Artist: Dj Smithee
Track: Koi
Label: Siooqh

SQ1: Okareh
A constellation of sonic spells shaped by intuition, rhythm, and deep time.
Beginning with a breath of the cosmos — a slow unfolding of space and feeling —
drifting into grooves that ground and enchant, where the earth speaks in pulses.
Rain speaks in rhythms. Shadows pulse.
Time folds inward, reshaping the senses.
