Premiere: Stockholm Syndrome & Lusca - Symbols For The Simple Minded [Play Pal]

There were some landscapes that simply took your breath away; the kind that made you feel like a tiny speck on this thing we call planet earth. The canyon below was a sight to behold, its huge stone surfaces coated in tones of copper and green. If you squinted hard enough you could trace clusters of tiny humans exploring the winding paths, tunnels and bridges that littered the expanse. It felt somewhat magical or metaphysical; a natural wonder of the world...

It's been almost a decade since Italian producers Rodion and Fabrizio Mammarella teamed up for a collaborative EP on the latter's Slow Motion imprint. Like their first outing, Apennini, back in 2012 this new release proves yet again why these two are a perfect production pairing, fusing their shared love of synthesized melodies and machine-driven funk and disco. The duo continue this across their Sierra Madre EP, which was recorded in Mexico City with a guest appearance from Roam Records and Duro alumni Mijo, and backed by a rework from Italo-Belgian duo Front De Cadeaux.

PREMIERE - Cornelius Doctor - Zsa Zsa Don't Cry (Duro)

The fourteenth edition of SUW (SIde UP Works) literally comes from a parallel world which makes contact with ours through sound infiltrations from the Valencian producer Mundo D, who has shaped a musical channeling towards our simply brilliant reality. Sit back and prepare your mind to be delighted with a great P.E., not only because of the art of its creator, but also because of the two fantastic remixes by the Mexican Colossio and the Berlin-based Brazilian Celestino. Without more words, enjoy !!

PREMIERE⚡MUNDO D -  Digitor (Celestino Remix) [Side UP Works]

Russian Chandeliers is Niko Rapsis (FringeSociety, Modern Ruin) and Julian Grefe (Pink Skull, Clean Plate). Originally hailing from Athens and Philadelphia respectively, the duo met in 2014 in Berlin… where they both still reside and share a studio space. Their collaborative project, sprung from a mutual love of all things unsavory and unfun, saw its inaugural release on New Yorks SAMO records. For their follow up on Esthetique, these two dapper lifers offer up an EP of paranoid, muscular analog grooves fit for filthy basement ragers.

FIRST LISTEN_Russian Chandeliers - No More Silos (Original Mix)

Duro returns with 'Derrumbes Y Escaleras', the first collaboration from Vontier & Mago's upcoming album. The single is inspired by the Indian board game 'Snakes and Ladders' and the hallucinogenic mushroom 'psilocybe caerulescens' popularly known as 'Derrumbe'. This mushroom is one of the most important species in the country and was formerly used in prehispanic religious ceremonies. The trip comes with remixes by Englishman Chez de Milo and US duo Zillas On Acid.

His opener here is 'Derrumbes Y Escaleras'. Instantly you feel the effect of deep bass, ancestral flutes and psychedelic melodies coursing through your system, while the inner voices guide you to the deepest part of your being. Chez de Milo follows with a solid, rumbling percussion base, intoxicated flutes and synths laden you to the next existential plane. 

The nine-minute Zillas On Acid's trip uses the bassline to keep you lucid and present, while the flutes, frenetic arpeggios and percussion create an inner chaos. Inspired by the Mexican rave scene of the 2000s, the 'Saiko Mix' has a catchy bouncy bass, rolling percussion and acid sounds that feel like melted lasers coming out of the speakers. 

Closing the EP is the B-Side 'Zumo Di Batuca', an experimental break cut. As it progresses the vocals and synthetic sounds disintegrate and melt into a solid, cyclical sound mix that keeps you in a trance state.

Berlin-based Ombra International love all things post-punk and Italo disco, and they continue to represent that fusion in style on their 21st release. First up HLM brings a heavy wash of synths to 'En Ecailles' before Tony Y Not get into a twanging new wave vibe on 'How About Lily'. Kimshies has a sleazier sound to offer up, while Rees pushes all manner of vintage arpeggios at the behest of 'Lucifer's Tango'. That leaves it to Endrik Schroeder to finish the set with the atmospheric 'Rainy Days', a perfect tribute to washed out 80s post-punk with a strong dose of disco pumping in its veins.

PREMIERE: Tony Y Not - How About Lily [Ombra International]

Alice In Paradise

Florence renaissance man Tulioxi drops his debut release on Slow Motion splashing fresh vitality onto a vintage European sonic palette. Video-age melodies and blistering electro-disco drums are served atop high-voltage bass-lines with pulsing hypnotic funk. Remixes come from Altieri’s eerie, squelchy and mesmerising take on The Japanese Message, and Armonics floaty transposition of Fighting Against Someone Else’s Perception.
