Benedikt Frey - The Same Old Game

Camberwell Now - Speculative Fiction (Benedikt Frey Enhancement)

Music To Watch Seeds Grow By welcome Los Angeles based multi-disciplinary artist, E Ruscha V to the Seeds family, with a release for the Cosmos.

There once was a fellow named Eddie Ruscha V, Who lived in a garden extraordinarily,
He spent all his days reaching up to the sky, For Music To Watch Seeds Grow By.

His fingers were leafy like ferns in the spring, His hair tangled vines where the nightingales sing,
“O fumblesome, tumblesome, root-tappity-high!” He sang as the seedlings grew nigh.

 


 
The Cosmos flowers danced in their purple and pink, With petals that shimmer and stems that could think,
“Dear Eddie,” they whispered through pollen and dew, “Play something delightfully new!”

His orchestra bloomed from the rich fertile ground, Daffodils trumpeted, making a brassy sound,
While Cosmos conducted with star-patterned faces, Their petals like musical braces.

Said Eddie Ruscha V with infinite glee, “My botanical symphony’s the key, don’t you see? The reaching and teaching and beseeching I try, Makes Music To Watch Seeds Grow By!”

When visitors came from the land of Dahloon, They’d waltz with the Cosmos beneath the full moon,
While Eddie played tunes on his hollyhock-flute, That made even cactuses root.

O! Eddie Ruscha V of gardening renown, With Cosmos flowers crowning his vegetable crown,
May your reaching continue through soil and loam, With plants dancing right through your home!

 

 
Cosmos follows a path that Ruscha began exploring with his 2018 release, “Who Are You”, on Beats In Space and continued through recent works like ‘Green Mirror’ under his alias Secret Circuit and ambient pieces for the “Slow Show” performances. Each project has been a cultivation season that invites listeners to pause, observe, and connect with cycles of natural emergence.

Cosmos is dropping at the end of March. Here’s a premiere for ‘Reaching Up’, available to pre-order on Bandcamp now.

Berlin based Korean-Japanese producer, visual artist, DJ and label owner Red Pig Flower has grown to become a highly respected figure in Berlin’s underground electronic music scene and further afield across the globe. Playing at some of the most respected institutions on her home Berlin like Tresor, Hoppetosse and Kater Blau, as well as global hotspots like Guest House in Bucharest, Romania, Nordstern in Basel, Switzerland, Bar Americas in Guadalajara ,Mexico and Dommune and Womb Club in Tokyo.

As a DJ Red Pig Flower’s sound traverses through a broad spectrum of styles ranging from playful House and tripped out minimal sounds through to more murky, textured Techno and groove-driven loops, whilst her own live set leans heavily on a more hypnotic style of House and Techno. Both formats of performance always focus on the journey and aim to deliver a smooth, subtly evolving transition throughout the night and into the morning.

With her own material on labels such as Baile Musik, Serialism,  Brise, Proper Slap and Yoruba Grooves, Red takes inspiration from stories she’s heard, books she’s read and other art forms that feed her creative mind. Her impressive back catalogue of material has gained her the attention of leading publications and influencers in underground electronic music such as XLR8R, Resident Advisor and BBC Radio 1’s B.Traits, a telling sign of the quality embodied in her music.

PREMIERE⚡️Dreems - Persepection [Invisible Inc.]

Playful, creative and intelligent, Niklas Wandt weaves a masterfully programmed tapestry of percussive dancefloor delights for Viscera Transmissions 003 with Mehr Phett.

Joyous and bright, Mehr Phett evokes a coconut flavoured sunrise on a distant desert island.

Skilfully intertwining modern drum programming with retroistic instrumentation, Feuerwerk der Rhythmen is a guided tour through the eras of house music and beyond.

Subcutaneous Dance is a whirlpool of interwoven synthesiser melodies. Submarine LFOs guaranteed to get underneath the dermal layer.

Music reorganisation adept Eden Burns flips Mehr Phett on its head, wonky space-toms complete the package.

Credits to Niklas Wandt for the music, Heinrich Matis for the original mix downs, Eden Burns on remix duties, James Savage for the masters, Edward Tuckwell on artwork and to Jessica Lau on graphic design.

MiZi MuZiK no. 4 delivers a coolly ecstatic, groove-driven collaboration between Madrid’s Landikhan and Berlin-based icon Mira, with a hypnotic interpretation by Ed Ed. Equal parts rhythm-centric shmasher and chord-heavy reminiscence, ‘I’m Still Here’ draws on a rich sonic spectrum to deliver a period EP filled with beautifully arcing warehouse euphoria and playful Funk.

The title track ‘I’m Still Here’ is a vibrant fusion of classic chord ecstasy, warehouse-ready energy arcs, and throbbing Dembow undercurrents. Set against a sonorous kick and booming tomtom groove, Mira and Landikhan marry cool, funky dancefloor elegance with cycling patterns of escalating chord chops. The result is timeless and captivating: flurries of tactile chords and dynamic drum patterns revolve in mid-air—a brightly blazing groove totem to guide the night.

‘We Drop the Ball’ pivots the mood to heavyweight—and beautifully impromptu—Funk. Anchored by squelching, blown-out bass themes and Disco-infused drums, ‘We Drop the Ball’ unveils an intensely tactile playfulness. Deceptively casual in its session-like flow, Mira and Landikhan push the track’s elements to a towering apogee. It’s raw, beautifully engineered, and crucially, it bumps.

Ed Ed recasts ‘We Drop the Ball’ as a deep, immersive dancefloor seance with a sub-heavy core. Draping his rendition in ghostly vapour, Ed Ed transforms the original’s galvanic chords into a haze of swirling atmospheres broken by flashing flickers of transient, heavily effected synths. Dark, sensual, and powerfully hypnotic, Ed Ed dips the original into a vast pool of slow-burning bliss.

Bringing together nostalgic depth and rhythmic sophistication, ‘I’m Still Here’ seamlessly blends Mira’s and Landikhan’s distinct styles. It’s an eclectic take on dancefloor energy that transports both a sense of sonic refinement and the ad hoc joy of creative invention.

Benedikt Frey is many. Or just one? He is a composer. An arranger. A DJ. A ghost producer. A fan. He plays in bands like INIT, or Dolphins or KEYS +++ produced the last two albums for Chris Imler. Downbeat in experimental dub zones. The goat for Edits and remixes. When house was his nation, he used to listen to pen names like Suedmilch or Venedikt Reyf. He still likes the music formed under their umbrella, but today his tomorrow is not echoed in yesterday. His sound signature moved on. Into the open. He founded labels like R.i.O. or Serious Trouble. 

He lives in Berlin. Physically. In mind Benedikt Frey is at many places. Traveling far thru his home studio that is a flat a studio a flat an instrument a record collection a flat a studio. Everywhere gear, vinyl, tapes, instruments, rooms for spontaneous sonic notions, these moments, when a sudden strike of stimulation falls. He is inspired a lot. For music to dance. Music for films. Music for live shows. Music for dancing glows. Techno, house, downbeat, ambient, jungle, electronics outside the norms. Those transportive ones. Jamming with others. Jamming with his mind. In Berlin Wedding, North of the town, where the lights dimmed low, neighbors share the flow, and a small river runs slow.  As a DJ he plays here, there, everywhere. Big clubs, small shacks, festivals, gatherings. From fast to 90 BPM - as he feels. 

For himself. For the crowd. In the spur. He still remembers his club kid days. Going to dance with friends. Down there in Offenbach. Doing the Robert Johnson. Collective emotions for a better tomorrow. These he still seeks. In his music. His shows. His collaborations. You can book him for a party. For enlightenment. For ecstasy or introspective perspectives. Dancing slow, whilst pirouetting a high-pitched show. 

Since more than a decade. His own music is out there, too. Bringing his spirits in sound. On his own labels. On international imprints like ESP Institute, Hivern Discs, Craigie Knowes, or Emotional Response. Solo works. Driving ones. Slow drills. Teased during his DJ dates around the planet. 

The music plays day and night. Inspiration comes. From a simple kick drum. A movie sequence. A bird on the sill. A picture, totally still. Can’t kick that feeling when it hits. Benedikt Frey. In dreams. In streams. In music. Emotions. Situations. At night. In those flashy lights, when it bites.
