B4. Good Room - Midweek Deeds [Sticky Ground]

Artist: Balrog
Release: The Nothern Powerhouse' LP
Cat number: IOD053
Release date: 14.02
Format: CD & digital

Balrog’s debut album, “The Northern Powerhouse” is composed of 8 hard-hitting techno tracks, focusing on heavy, groove-ridden drums, driving basslines and obscure, distorted vocals. His tracks take influence from classic, hard-grooving techno but with a fresh injection of modern, industrial power.
The framework for the tracks was developed in the midst of the fallout from the UK leaving the EU and the numerous attempts to “level up” the north of the country through The Northern Powerhouse scheme, from which the album derives its name. Conceptually, the album is an attempt from the artist to dissociate himself from Brexit and the conservative government which has consistently stigmatised the most vulnerable in UK society and spread lies on an industrial scale in order to push forward their agenda.
           Through the album, a series of linked tracks mirror the raw divisions in society, not just between The North and The South of the UK, but also more widely representing divisions throughout the world.  As the album develops, a more hopeful outcome is suggested, seeing the culture of underground music as having the potential to build connections and incite resistance in an increasingly divided world.

BrenzyB - Cloud Cover

From Another Mind founders SHDW & Obscure Shape announce charity remix package featuring an array of rising talents with all proceeds doubled by the German duo and donated to Ärzte Ohne Grenzen (Médecins Sans Frontières aka Doctors Without Borders).

Opening the package, Anterist's remix of SHDW & Obscure Shape's 'Die Weiße Rose' rolls forward with cantering kicks, off-beat hats and murky synths, leading into Jay Clarke's contrasting version with its chuggy bassline, piercing stabs and murky atmospherics - broken up by celestial breakdown at the midway point. Next, Leksom's take on the same track is built upon gloomy sound design and features syncopated drums and oscillating effects.

STXRK then remixes 'Gesang Der Toten Dinge' to create a relentless groove courtesy of precision kicks, delayed notes and tantalising arps. Finally, the package concludes with a curveball remix of 'Die Weiße Rose' from Underher who creates an epic number opening with a suspenseful and atmospheric intro, incorporating a brand new and original serene vocal from Eleonora, before shifting into a meandering rhythm - the result is a twisted and esoteric aesthetic.
