me in the audience screaming and throwing up. April 5.

𝓪𝓿𝓻𝓲𝓵 14 𝓻𝓮𝓶𝓲𝔁 𝓒𝓾𝓶𝓫𝓲𝓪

labyrinths made of the heaviest salts comprise me 

memories like oil stains

dust crunches in my teeth

something in the way you tremble

dredge the marrow, sink beneath the loam

lightning flashes, dispossession 

stretch the pneuma, further away than the light flashes in a dark sky 

the blood underneath your fingernails speaks volumes

our spirits are in the air and we need to see how much love we can give 

i cannot scream like i used to

so do not invoke me

do the angels weep for me?

within the Dreamings

The 46th release of katharsis is the EP “Plumage” by french artist Bademjan, coming out in full on November 18th. "Plumage" takes the listener on an epic voyage guided by the arcane wisdom of synthetic bird-guides, mysterious creatures leading the way through haunting and sublime realms. The EP emerges as a reflection on the pursuit of elusive truths and their role in shaping identity, and unfolds like an initiatory journey, inviting the listener to explore realms of feelings unremembered and times that never were.

From the discovery of a hidden chapel where stained glass whispers vivid secrets, to eerie calls piercing the night in a moonlit forest, each of the seven tracks reveals a new chapter in this overarching tale. Throughout the journey, the mystical birds appear briefly but meaningfully, offering both an unsettling and comforting presence as they help us navigate the shifting sands of self and accept the inevitable decay of all that we hold dear.

On “Plumage”, Bademjan unfolds his full potential by materializing his sonic development with incorporation of the electric upright bass as the backbone of the record, with its sound manipulated and processed to evoke a spectrum of emotional textures, from delicate pizzicato notes to deep sub-bass roars and gritty bow strokes. This organic foundation is enriched with woodwind-esque synths, ethereal vocal harmonies and the uncanny chirps of artificial birds, creating a sonic fable that feels both eternal and ephemeral.

Bademjan has previously put out releases with labels White Garden and Olga Productions, and contributed to compilations from Club Late Music, 90000realms and evo-natura besides figurating on the katharsis compilations “Embracing Darkness, Absorbing Light” and “Infinite Summer: Fantasi”.

Sleeping Beauty Theme - Gallery Edit

“Stoked to release this brand new tape from St. Louis producer Elazy, who is creating some seriously blissful ‘n’ psychedelic glitch hop that falls somewhere between Dntel and Pleasure Systems. Major EP highlight and lead single “arson” is a winning blend of jangly bedroom pop and laidback IDM flourishes, as is the tongue-in-cheek “Sweater Song” reconstruction of “creepy friends,” which reminds us a bit of that collaborative EP by Gobby and EZB we dropped a few years ago.

Not many producers nowadays are creating this particular style of indietronica, let alone with such intricate sound design or enticing pop hooks. Overall, Elazy Does It! is a very promising statement by a rising soundsmith in the American underground (introduced to us by mutual friends and fellow PVers Can’t Read).

Athenians will want to attend our tape release show for Elazy Does It! on April 25th at Buvez, featuring performances by Elazy, Marcel Sletten, and Musica Mundane (Dividers’ Sam Miller + Sophia Rubin), as well as the mastering engineer for the tape, Ujstin Echno.”

-Marcel Sletten, Primordial Void

‘arson’ is out now along with the preorder for Elazy Does It! available April 4th via Primordial Void

A vocal edit version of the final song on my album 'when will you be here again?', which I held onto, but now out in open fields...

Thanks always for listening to the music
