Hajj - Running In Madness, Dying With Hate

New track by Hajj ( @hadji-hajj ) & Pithe ( @xxxpithexxx )! This will be included in GUN-X03, the new collaborative project between Club Late Music ( @club-late-music ) & Morsel ( @morsel-tales ). Will be out on November 20th.

Members of the GUN (Global URL Nation) community be asked to made a track with one poem as an inspiration [read below*]. The release comes with a writing zine and all proceeds for the compilation will go towards Medical Aid for Palestinians.

The album oscillates between a sombre, dynamic landscape through a selection of heart-felt ambient tracks to bass driven club rhythms, mirroring the dark melancholic yet heavenly imagery painted in the poem.


*"Never in my born days did I see such night
The day the angels put their wings to rest
Lonely feathers plucked from their backs drift politely
And nestle into cloudy swirls of grey, as bitter as the winter skies
And wither into ash from the lightning, smoke and rain 

Can you hear the angels mourning?
Can you hear them singing?
“Where is heaven 
for the heavenly”

As the faint patter of their tears reign on the curb beside me

Distant echoes 

I hear them

Here comes my messenger,
Shrouded in tarnished wings, gatekeeper of the other world
Onto a bronze key, he clings
Onto hope that we would meet again one day
He made me gatekeeper of this city
Until it’s time for me to sing along with him.

Until then, I hope I never see such night, again.

Hajj & Pithe * Watch Over Me [Premiere]

Accustomed to delivering doom and gloom since 2009, French label @dawnrecords now unveils its 21st corrosive release with "Modern Grief," the latest toxic alloy from their new in-house project, @gargantuan-collapse.

Set for a CD release on November 13, the "Modern Grief" LP offers ten dystopian tracks drenched in harsh noise, blending cutting-edge metal, heavy bass, grimy trap, and emo-tinged IDM.

@hadji-hajj
The final katharsis release of 2024 is the 26-track compilation “Physical Force” featuring a wide range of affiliated artists from both the international and local Copenhagen electronic music scene. As the title hints, Physical Force delves into the visceral, bodily aspects of music, inviting its contributors to explore the theme of movement as a central element in their compositions. Each artist was encouraged to focus on rhythm, groove, energy, and the physicality of sound, which resulted in drum-heavy release from start to finish. While there is a consistent emphasis on rhythm and a bodily connection to the music, the tracks vary widely in style and sonic texture, ranging from big melodic anthems, gritty experimental techno, heavy jungle bangers, and beyond.
