For the debut digital EP on Viscera Transmissions, Komodo spreads his wings and takes his signature low slung psychedelica to the stars, to reap destruction on extraterrestrial dancefloors across the cosmos.

Title track Mirror Claws begins an ember in the desert, slowly stoked by guitar chord stabs and eerie screeches towards a slow yet inevitable psychedelic inferno.

For Night Crawler, the guitar steps back into co-pilot role as the acid bass takes the saddle, spurring the squelch dragon off into the void with a crack of the 303 whip.

Next up is Vanquished Angst with a dubby desert rock workout. Blazing guitar solos tear across the sky like thunderbolts whilst the hypnotic bassline and guitar progression burn through the dunes.

On the flip, Jonny Rock re-dubs the dub with his Vanquished Angst Dragon Remix. No slightly questionable guitar metaphors here, instead, a mind melting whirlpool of spiraling percussion, vocal quips, bass throbs and pads form a completely bonkers but brilliant piece.

Last but certainly not least, Chez de Milo arms Night Crawler with some serious ordnance. After changing up the beat pattern with a breaksy kick, electro warheads are ago, clearing the way for the original 303 line to cruise through. Heavy!

Credits: Thanks to Komodo for the amazing music in support of our new label, Jonny Rock & Chez de Milo for the delicious remixes, James Savage for the incredible masters, Kirsty Carrington for the gorgeous illustration and to Jessica Lau for digital design.

PREMIERE: Il Est Vilaine - Yvré-l’évêque (Tolouse Low Trax Broken Pleasure Remix) [Dialect Rec.]

Mickus ir Stein Ego – draugai, kuriuos šiuo metu dažnai galima išgirsti halėje, saulei nusileidus. Bernų pažintis sena, taip pat susijusi su muzikiniais reikalais. Judviejų duetas prasidėjo atsitiktinai minėtoje halėje, kurioje ir atradome juos. Po pirmojo sėkmingo b2b, Mickus ir Stein Ego nusprendė toliau muziką dalintis grojant petis į petį. Garbanoti plaukai, garbanotos mintys, garbanota ir muzika. Įvairovės nestingantys kolegos supranta kaip palaikyti vakarėlį nuo pradžių iki galo. Paprastai aprėpti ir išdėstyti tai ką groja bičiuliai nėra taip lengva, tačiau išskiriant esmines detales, bendrą muzikinį skonį galima talpinti į šalto skambesio monotonija, pitch-down trancą bei electro-techno derinį persipinantį su klasikinio progresyvaus houso kūriniais.

Three years in the making, the album "Vox" is coming soon!", the electronic music duo Artfcl from Vilnius, Lithuania shares the hot news. This is the third full album and the first to use vocals. The album consists of 14 tracks, only one of which is without vocals - "Insider". The composition "Insider" has a quite deep sound, but is focused for the dance floors.

15th ИДА release is coming from Saint-Petersburg based Anastasia Zems. She delivers EP full of mystery, weird grooves, tribal elements, field recorded samples paired with her psychedelic vocals and ad-libs.

On the remixes we welcome our friend, Karakter records’ own Pedro Martins, who transforms ‘African Fairytale’ into lush laidback breakbeat voyage, while on another one we see comeback of Aristidez who pushes the energy up on ‘359011_01’ and raises the trippy feel of the track.

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.
