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.

Marco Shuttle - Into Thin Air [INC-012]

Artist: https://soundcloud.com/qwqwqwqwa
Track: S-Low
Label: https://soundcloud.com/grid-records
Format: Digital LP
Release date: 18/03/22
YouTube: https://youtu.be/yvTJkfzyuAI

Young Russian producer, qwqwqwqwa, known for his Neoplasm imprint and club night in Saint Petersburg with Ugly Club, lands on Grid for our fifth release, full of surprises.
The EP contains six, varied tracks, all with a jagged, UK-edge. With EP-opener 'Core,' you board an ark of dread across a turbulent sea of sub frequencies that rock the ship. 'STBS' twinkles with modular tones of unpredictability, hanging the listener in a subtle groove. 'F Mate' is a rampant roller scurrying across the seafloor with unpredictable and petrifying bass. 'S-Low' is irresistibly groovy, boasting a b-boy drum pattern that is spread meticulously across the frequency spectrum. 'Perk' is dark and dirty with phased percussion that chimes over rumbling kicks. EP-closer 'p+DRM' is a 129bpm new-school jungle and bass hybrid with chords that are luscious and welcoming. TIP!

Low Priority EP

PREMIERE | qwqwqwqwa - S-Low [Grid] 2022

With ‘Terrain,’ Joachim Spieth presents the  fourth long player on his Affin imprint. 

The follow-up album to ‘Ousia’ (2021),  ‘Terrain,’ reflects on the human relationship with nature. The album title is  a reference to a musical language that  layers Spieth’s music production practices  and intimacy with nature.   

‘Terrain’ was forged in deep solitude.“ It’s  an interplay of euphoric flashes and introspection” – says Spieth. The eight  compositions take the listener into a captivating cascade of sonic textures resembling internal states fluctuations and  emotional release. The tension between the  organic warmth and static curves broads  tones into liquified roars and empty spaces. 

Unlike Spieth’s previous albums, ‘Terrain’  holds more intimate gestures and emotional  sensibility. Soothing frequencies here are  intended to create a state of awareness in  the listener. It is a work of conceptual and emotional beauty, evoking a form of spatial  imagery that is as grounding as elevating.

Below Surface - Escaping the Void | out on Be Sure on 10/10/16 (BESURE010)

R-A-G is MOS boss Aroy Dee in partnership with Marco Spaventi and G String. Together they make frayed and analogue house music that joins the dots between 80s Chicago and the modern day. This new EP does just that once more, opening with the dense sci-fi stomper that is Vacuum. With coarse synths and plenty of sonic scuzz it fires your every synapse.

On the flip side, Plenum (Outer Mix) is a beat less ambient affair with lost synths ringing out in vast chambers of fine grain sound, before the Inner Mix slowly courses on raw kick drums. Whole ecosystems of synths spiral around like galaxies in the distance to make for truly filmic deep house listening.
