Heavy Machinery Records is proud to present ’TIE-EE-YIE-EE-YIE-EE-YIME', the stunning debut full length album from Melbourne electronic producer Female Wizard.

Female Wizard has been a stalwart of the Melbourne dance music scene since taking up DJing in 2014. She initially made her mark by gathering and sharing a vast classic house record collection under the name Brooke Powers, playing feature sets at Golden Plains, Dark Mofo and Red Bull Music Academy’s Transliminal, The Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, and many more.

In 2019, Female Wizard took on her now trademark experimental and innovative DJ style. Exploring the weirder sides of techno, industrial, IDM and more, this style aims to create collective transcendence through powerful sonic immersion. Female Wizard’s debut at a Boiler Room and Discwoman collaborative event was followed by headlining sets at Hybrid Festival and Soft Centre, as well as mixes for Discwoman, and Boiler Room’s Hard Dance mix series. In 2020, Female Wizard made the shift to music production, releasing her first EP 'Messy-Podge-Mania' on local label Anterograde.

Female Wizard’s newest release is ’TIE-EE-YIE-EE-YIE-EE-YIME' - an anxious mix of IDM, slamming techno and mind-altering club...  more

Braden Wells  201224

Astral VIP (and more) are here to remedy the monotony! by rehashing what you’ve already heard? but alas, no one is perfect. Outliers and outcasts have always created pockets in the mould of the city, smoke and wubs away from the lights and hammer. This collection of 14 tracks comes from such a dent, representative of different scenes all dedicated to this approach, coming from dank corners, away from big business.

Our offering is a tribute to the mix CDs of dance before (Global Underground et al), with AVIP’s very own Dugong on the 1s and 2s blending contributions from analogous crew into one continuous mix. Future-past made present, for potentially discontinued CD drives. For the sake of tangibility, in times that surge ahead regardless.

All profits from this compilation are being donated to 3EZWA Legal Fund, to help financially assist those facing draconian legal fees as part of the current protest movement in solidarity with Palestine & Lebanon.

'If You Know You Know'

𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬: 𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐌𝐢𝐱 𝐛𝐲 ⊹ Abadir @rami-abadir ⊹

Abadir is one of the most fascinating producers (also a DJ and music journalist) from the contemporary experimental club music world. He is always changing and growing as an artist. He is interested in collaboration and frequently works together with different artists across the world. Whether it's with Nahash, Ehua, Lyra Valenza, or Slikback. From ambient to bass music to mashups and hybrids with rich Arabic rhythms.

"Cultural surroundings could mean rhythmic patterns that exist in the Arab region. I really can’t count the number of rhythmic patterns that we have. I only know a few, like 15 different rhythmic patterns, and I think there are hundreds. So, I’m still discovering, learning, and listening a lot," told Abadir to the Danish blog Passiveaggressive.

𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐱 ➽
"I’m revisiting my early music influences in this special mix. Every artist/band in this mix has been a great source of inspiration to me in terms of production, sound design, mood and how to build a song structure. For the last ten years, I still find a lot of their traces in my music, consciously or subconsciously. I grew up with this music —among others— in the 90’s and 00’s, introduced to these artists through MTV, VH1, magazines like Q, Select and Mixmag, as well as MTV’s late-night programs Alternative Nation and Chill Out Zone. This mix brings back good memories of collecting music on CDs, Cassettes, VHS tapes and later on ripping music on CDs as music piracy took off with Napster, iMesh, Limewire and torrents."

[Swine Guest Mix] Abadir - Early Music Influences

Bristol NormCore invites two bold experimenters for this episode. Loto Retina conjures a semi-dancing chaos of reggaeton, footwork, and surreal sound collage, blurring the lines between reality and cartoon. Reptilian Expo follows with a new live set of unreleased songs, weaving storytelling and dreamy grooves into rich, offbeat soundscapes.

After a weird and wonderful 2nd bday party last weekend, NICHE main fungus @ikavapii invites one of the night’s heroes, Paris-based sound alchemist @lefrit , for 2 hours of abstract, wonky, slowfast music.


NICHE w/ Ikävä Pii & Le Frit - 21th April 2025

PREORDER: https://other-joe.bandcamp.com/album/flawless

"I’ve been friends with Joe since we were kids. He is a profound silence filler," writes freelance writer Emile Frankel of his friend Other Joe (aka @josephbuchan) in our upcoming feature article.

'Flawless' is Joe's latest record, regularly toying with the space between ambience, very comfortably proving the artist's ability to leave room for the listener to hear their own breath. 

'Deepblue', co-produced with fellow etherealist @ronan-music, is the penultimate track on Joe’s new record, ‘Flawless’. 

A touching, soft, and yet calmly loud dance. Crunchy, uncompressed drums and ever twinkling pads twist around the echo of an Amen break. NY’s Ronan and Naarm’s Joe link up in the haze to produce something unique. 

'Deepblue' is a taste of everything available on Other Joe’s latest record, becoming available and possible from the inimitable @besteffort. 

'Flawless' is available as a limited run of 150 vinyl via Best Effort’s Bandcamp, and via all streaming platforms on Sunday, June 1.

PREMIERE: other joe & Ronan - 'Deepblue' [Best Effort]

@karisa-correa - 'cold metal, heavy mind' is part of Gravity Pleasure's inaugural release, Water Bodies: a rippling compilation of FLINTA* artists and collaborators that invites listeners into an aqueous paraworld.

Across 21 tracks, Water Bodies spans a post-genre miasma of ethereal mermaid music, cathartic flows, and glistening sibilants ~ each one an exquisite message-in-a-bottle of deep diving emotionality. Pulling from a wide-range of musical perspectives ~ field recording, lovesick ballads, shimmering downtempo, post-party comedown, and percolating ambient ~ the compilation contains multitudes yet maintains deep sentimental coherence. Like a wave crashing in slow motion, it sonifies possible ways of being, insisting on the porous, the interdependent, and the deep and unruly. Water Bodies reminds us that home is a body made of water, to which we all belong.

~~*~~

Home is a body made of water.
Remember.

Close eyes.
Listen to drips; hear voices.
What do they tell you?
Make your body a grotto.
What does it hold?

Spider’s tapestry: flycatcher.
Roadmap: net of sinews.
Lost in night forest: seek breadcrumbs.
Remember?
Body is lighthouse: shine through cloud canopy.
Body is fish: wet is all you know.

Sink deep, fly high,
stretch your arpeggio from young to old.
Remember.

-Lou Croff Blake
