Dewy electronics from the Bavarian forests.

Number 40 in the Theory Therapy series is a mossy bed of iridescent electronics and ambient textures by Berlin-based DJ Akimat. We absolutely love the Aussie-born selector’s taste in music and the way they craft mixes around specific themes. This one was inspired by “intricate, gentle nature in the forests of Bavaria” and features a bunch of recent favourites from Concave Reflection, dj hexscrew and Ultrafog. There’s also a forthcoming one from our label hidden in there too.

London-based sound artist and DJ Jin Synth creates immersive sonic experiences by seamlessly blending ambient elements. Her artistry combines diverse textures and experimental layers into a unique sonic tapestry, using synthesizers, modular setups, and microphones to capture the world's frequencies. Through DJ performances, Jin crafts ethereal, meditative soundscapes that transport audiences, viewing CDJs & turntables as instruments for improvisational exploration. Her academic background drives her to delve into sonic art, crafting instruments and DIY microphones to push the boundaries of sound and deliver innovative, immersive musical experiences. Witnessing her mesmerising performance at Mostra Festival in 2023, it was a matter of time to feature her on Unrush, where we proudly showcase her podcast today...

Ankali’s floor was ablaze on the second night of our 7th anniversary, and cccore – the Garage Noord affiliate and Gravity resident – was the one who brought the kindling and lit the match.

Esgeem — KuH 2024

Today Phase Group are thrilled to present our next release by newcomers to the label, the excellent Hamburg band, Love-Songs. Their new album 'Passive Progressive' will be out on cassette and digital on October 18th.

Love-Songs are the trio consisting of Thomas Korf (electronics + vocals) Sebastian Kokus (Bass) and Manuel Chitka (Percussion) who make cosmic, kraut-inspired electro-acoustic music. Many will be familiar with their previous output on wonderful labels like Kame House and Bureau B.

'Passive Progressive' lands in the form of 8 enthralling tracks that take us through dreamlike and psychedelic echoing territories, where Korf’s modulating electronics and effected vocals ripple over the grooving rhythm section of percussion and bass supplied by Kokus and Chitka. Across the album, the band are joined by a host of guest musicians and friends from Berlin and Hamburg’s underground and experimental music scenes, supplying Trombone, Mbira, Clarinet, Flute and extra synthesisers and vocals to enhance the mind-expanding and unique sound palette of these incredible tracks.

As with most of the material we’ve released on Phase Group, this is music that’s hard to pin down, that lends itself equally well to creating transcending atmospheres in the early moments of a special kind of club set as to soundtracking a mind-bending and deep personal listening experience. We’ve no doubt that the sound that Love-Songs have crafted with Passive Progressive will be enthusiastically received by all sonic voyagers and fans of the label, and we’re over the moon to welcome them to the Phase Group family.

Passive Progressive is available on limited cassette, with double-sided risograph print artwork by Andrija Čugurović. 

Preorder is available now from our Bandcamp.

"53100 is just a wild ride. Grateful for every minute spent there, grateful for every shot of grappa and for every wikkid dance we all shared. Dancehall 7'' business chucked in for good measure."
