While I was working on the first pieces for „Moments of Imperfection“ one year ago I came up with the main sequence for this track. I decided to merge it with some minimal drums from the internal nerdseq sample player and recorded everything, like the pieces on the Album, in one take. The track did not make it onto the album but was always very special to me so I decided to release it now to the world.
I hope you will enjoy it!

Doxil returns to Bricolage with the follow up to 2020's "Anarchist Pacifism and Friends".

"Vert" sees the continuation and evolution of that signature Doxil audio vortex of rhythmic breaks, obscure samples and nods to the 90's rave scene but with an even clearer emphasis on creating a nostalgic atmosphere.

A sweet fusion of garage, breaks, ambient intermissions and IDM vibes that draws influences from a broad range of peers.

The release starts off in a contemplative mood with the opening downtempo tracks echoing memories of early Burial material amid a slew of slow burning UKG rhythms and moody backdrops to set the tone. The second half of the EP picks up the pace with Doxil flexing his knack for euphoria inducing catchy hooks on "Brio" before "Lil' Nova" crashes in to end the party with crisp beats and melancholy yet uplifting pads.

"Blindspot" is the debut EP from the mysterious Jonblund.

With a name that translates as "The Sandman" in Norwegian, the music plays up to that theme and beyond. A transcendent assemblage of tunes to soundtrack your dreams and slow down the time. The EP is a mixture of live instrumentation and analogue electronics threaded together with glitchy downtempo beats.

The meshing together of piano, horns, strings and synth alongside carefully manipulated digital landscapes makes for a progressive listening experience that at times flirts with the grandiose nature of things without ever becoming melodramatic. Each track breathing new life into the next and forming new textures and an organic aesthetic that flows throughout the release.

I Closed My Eyes (Naviarhaiku 358)

After a series of outstanding EPs and compilation contributions on Bricolage we felt that it was about time to invite No Arrival to go big and provide us with a full length album.

The mysterious Glasgow native has not disappointed with "Converse".

It's an open plan world of disjointed and cerebral electronics. A strange and endearing world of stuttering rhythmic patterns, wispy layers, fractal backdrops and impeccable sound design. Akin to being lost in a dream.

The music dissolves and drifts between different dimensions all the while being carried further down the rabbit hole by the splicing of various skewered guitars, samples and buzzing bass terrains. The time and effort that's went into the careful building process of each individual track is more than evident and creates a dazzling collection of finely carved complex and organic landscapes.

As 'No Arrival' himself says "It reflects my state of being during these strange times. All the tracks do have specific and general meanings to me, but hopefully anyone else listening will find their own meanings - emotional resonance."

There you have it, build your own adventure. Let "Converse" be your soundtrack.
