Marco Shuttle's third album, Cobalt Desert Oasis, features a varied collection of music recorded across a two year period. Often traveling to remote destinations, Marco would come back to Berlin with field recordings, images, and other inspirations to process in his studio and turn into sound.

The theme of the journey turns into a something more abstract than a travel diary, where environmental sounds blend in with modular synthesis, drum machines, effects and analog oscillators resulting in a cinematic listening experience where psychedelia, ritualism, and mysticism weave together in a sort of alien soundscape - that as the title of the album suggests, is reminiscent of a parallel utopian world.

The album is rich in complex rhythmics, and more than in any of his previous work, has strong acoustic elements. Amongst other percussion instruments, Marco used the Tombak, a traditional Persian hand drum capable of reaching a very wide range of frequencies - from deep round subby toms, to high pitched sharp rimshots, throughout the record.

Marco Shuttle is certainly not new to these sort of elements, but in Cobalt Desert Oasis he brings the environmental element of his sound into the forefront in a way that takes the listener into a hazy expanse where it is sometimes difficult to distinguish the machine elements from the natural - and where the music almost becomes a visual experience, which relates to Marco's own photography used throughout the cover and insert images.

Second object of devotion to emerge from WORSHIP's dawning catalogue, "Totem
Society" sees label founder Đ.K. joining forces with Italian producer Sabla (DISK,
Knekelhuis, Gang of Ducks) over six cuts exploring the confines of their shared
sound mystique. Flush with primitive drums, hazy temple-like atmospheres and eartitillating textures to wade in, this six-track voyage across ancient worlds and
newfangled electronic potentialities elicits visions of fulfilling serenity and troubled
oracles at once.

Composed & produced by Sabla + Đ.K.

Following the release of his ‘Mono‘ LP in 2021, Scottish producer/sound engineer @linkwood lines up his fourth solo album, combining the radiating sounds of electronica with Detroit inspired electro.

Linkwood - Look Up [Athens Of The North]

READ > https://inverted-audio.com/premiere-earth-trax-today

Inspired by liminal spaces and evoking surreal and dreamlike qualities, @earthtraxonline latest album 'Closer Now' @lapsus-records engulfs you in dense layers of warm trance-like textures, acidic jams and downbeat IDM / electronica. Swerving into fervent territories, 'Today' delivers deep waves of pads, downbeat drums and heartstrings of emotions. Reserve this one for jaded sunrise sessions.

Closer Now

Earth Trax - Today [Lapsus Records]

After releasing Oceanic’s 2017 live recording at the end of 2018, De School’s home imprint De Nieuw returns with four club-ready interpretations of Oceanic’s concert on modular synths and strings. First up is Oceanic’s take on his live recording, turned into the perfect fit for his halftime DJ-sets and a much-asked track ID. This track found its way to De School regulars upsammy and Pariah who have each created their own version.

Both are basement ready: a dub-inspired trip from Pariah’s side while upsammy performed her melodic magic on the string hook of the original. Closing off is Oceanic’s Beat Tool: a stripped-down drum workout that focusses on the percussion, the strings still echoing in the background. Together these tracks represent different visions of the original, both suitable for clubs in the future and home play today.
