My track on the Amniote x Ute Fundraiser Compilation. 
All the proceeds will be donated to The Red Van: a volunteer-run NGO working with harm reduction and human rights for street based sex workers in Copenhagen.

"Sidewinder" is my reptilian alias for Mama Snake's label, Amniote Editions. All artists are invited to create their own reptilian alter ego for the project. My last release there was the "Ripple Effect" EP in 2019. I first met her in Autumn 2018 in Copenhagen to play at Jolene, as well as attend in-person sessions for the mastering+lacquer cut for the record. We mastered with Joel at Six Bit Deep and cut the lacquer with Hari (HVAD) at Kommunal Dubplate. Proper stuff. Few weeks later we shared the lineup on Sustain Release Festival in NYC, it was all a blast. 

I had the pleasure to first meet the Ute crew in Spring 2019, playing their club night at Blå in Oslo. Already had a good feeling when they picked me up from the airport and were playing Global Communication while driving through misty evergreen trees. Oslo freakishly reminded me a lot of my hometown of Seattle, just a bit less mountainous and hilly. That summer, we shared a lineup in Säule Berghain and at the end of season I was invited to play at one of their forest parties (bless) alongside their residents and Alpha Tracks - it was a really fun run! :~)

The release stretches out and explores the diverse outer reaches of what Copenhagen underground scene is all about, starting with distorted experiment sound, four-to-the-floor house, signature fast techno and trance euphoria.
The album comes in two fully packed CDs with the artwork which will tickle some warm memories of countless hours spent o the dancefloor of the club. The compilation album will also be available in a digital version.

CD 1: Sinners Support Team, Johannes Astrup, SUGAR - Fast Forward, Tino, Terkel Høngaard, Ctrls, Frederik Tollund, Savile, Anders Dahl, Andi Müller and AN Yunbi.

About the club: Et Andet Sted was a unique free space for creative souls, DJ’s and ravers. The place for this sonice parallel universe existed for eith month only but it gave the birth to many new inspirations, music carriers and friendships. It was demolished due to gentrification. It is and will forever be missed.

About the label: Another Name is the in-house label of Copenhagen based nightclub: Ved siden Af, The music representing the sound of the club, the artists that frequent our space and the culture it supports.

You can order the CD and download the tracks on Bandcamp or just give it a listen on Soundcloud from Friday this week. Pre-Order at: https://anothernamevsa.bandcamp.com/album/an02-et-andet-sted-tribute

All the best

2 4 Peachlyfe - Lizard Queen

Peachlyfe (they/them) is a hydra-sonic electronic musician that shook & seduced the Copenhagen fast-paced techno scene, claiming their seat along with Endurance and Fast Forward.
Peachlyfe’s productions and live-sets rebelliously weave across genres, trippy melodies cut with heavy slaps while whispering in your ear about the dismantlement of the ‘cistem’. Their EP “All Tits are Real, All Money is Fake, All Hail Satan” is an ode to that anarchic-playfulness, a marvellous feat in blending rave-rush joy and queer defiance.
In early 2022, Peachlyfe releases “Against All Reason” on marum’s and BLEID’s label suspension, a 4-chapter tale through soundscapes of glitch, trancey dunes and euphoria, a vision excitedly in synch with the wave of dancefloor reopenings. 

“Against All Reason 1” opens with a cryptic and urgent sound-manifesto that envelopes the ideas behind this release. Prompted by the central question of Susan Schupli’s documentary “Can the Sun Lie”, Peachlyfe investigates que question of “reason”, a driving-question that appears in previous releases but under different shapes - the cis-hetero patriarchy that dictates which bodies, tits or dixx, expressions or sounds are respectable (or not). Those who challenge such canons are deemed ugly, inferior, swamp monsters. And so what? Against all reason, we love the swamp!

As the tone is set, “Against All Reason 2” blows it all up. The existential question is answered through gallopant beats and progressively euphoric harmonies, nudging the body straight into a glorious dance, followed by “Dance the Day Away” that steps up the parade with their seductive pace overlaid with a mesh of sexy sounds soaked on high-tone energy and joy - undoubtedly the uplifting anthem for 2022 we all needed. 
The deep slow burn “Creature Feature” journeys through looming synths and distant vocal-echoes, eventually jolted with a punching heartbeats, creating an other-worldly trip. The perfect closure of this album that so harmoniously seems to thread conflicting feelings and sounds, making space to cheerfully embrace the unknown, against all reason.




Against All Reason

Who lies in the name of the sun? We do, we do, we do, we do! 
Who knows where the stars are supposed to be? We do, we do, we do, we do!
Would you bend the light so I seem bright? Of course, love, anything for you!
Who lies in the shade until noon? Not us, no way, we dance, all day!

How should the ass look? How should the tits feel? To where should the dixx point, if they ever point?

Your eyes will deceive you! Your ears will deceive you! Your tongue will deceive you!

Do not trust your eyes! Do not trust your eyes! Do not trust your eyes! If they get the chance, they’ll stab you in the front! There are countless examples. Just take a look!

Do not trust your memory! Do not trust your memory! Do not trust your memory! If the right moment comes, It’ll rip out your eyes! Good riddance anyway!

Smell the radio! Listen to the flowers! Taste the music! Dance the day away

Imitate yourself! Imitate others! Imitate an image! It’ll be far more trustworthy than whatever they’re showing through your local window!

Who lies in the name of the sun? We do, we do, we do, we do! 
Who knows where the stars are supposed to be? We do, we do, we do, we do!
Would you bend the light so I seem bright? Of course, love, anything for you!
Who lies in the shade until noon? Not us, no way, we dance, all day!

Fast Forward Productions was formed in December 2015 as a new take on DIY rave culture. All events are built from the ground up, focusing on our local scene and collaborating with like-minded crews and concepts from abroad.
With a focus on social engagement, and by using activists from the local community to help make the events come to life, Fast Forward actively focuses on creating safer spaces at the venues we use. Sexism, racism, homophobia, and transphobia are not tolerated.
