Spring had always been her favourite time of year. She loved watching the branches of the trees change from bare to fully blossomed, and how the sounds of the birds and insects seemed to intensify as the nights grew lighter and the days longer. During these months, nature took things to the next level, choosing to spread its wings and bring life to green spaces in towns, cities and rural communities. That's where you'd find her for the foreseeable; out amongst the elements, soaking it all up while it lasted.

Bangkok-based producer Sunju Hargun and Swiss multi-instrumentalist Jerom Doudet first came together under the guise of Mogambo in 2020. Their debut, Cobra (कोबरा), gave us an introduction into the pair's shared passion for acid electronica, psychedelia and Bollywood films, which was channeled through a blend of tripped out percussion and hypnotic electronic grooves. For their sophomore release Urvi (उर्वी), again coming on their own Siamese Twins Records, the duo pay homage to different threads of Asian electronic music; from the driving progressive sounds of Goa trance to traditional Siamese and Indian instrumentation and the contemporary tech sounds coming out of Bangkok.

Pieter Kock - Facial Recognition (RIO08)

R.I.O. welcomes Pieter Kock aka DJ Peacock, one of the guiding souls behind the Berlin based bar/micro club O Tannenbaum. Musically active since 1986 as singer, guitarist, drummer and noisemaker, Peter already released a string of albums under different aliases like Billie and Ballie, The Hitmachine and Taladu.  Since the early 1990s he narrates haunting sonic stories as a DJ, playing a vast palette of styles - from cosmic and leftfield techno to tape experiments, sound-art, wave, world, jazz, punk, industrial, and all that weird pop music. Last year saw him liberating his first solo recordings under his civil name as a cassette tape named “Flocks & Murders of Entitled Spirits”, dropped by the Berlin/Vilnius based label Musikii. It unreels twelve sensitive tunes, made with the help of online synths and drum computers, Youtube travel- and talk show-videos or samples from Youtube synths- and rhythm box-demonstration videos. Now he refined his idiosyncratic style of music crafting a bit deeper and shares “Facial Recognition” – a gently twisted album that unites hypnagogic pop, library dances, cosmic funk, leftfield grooves and experimental sonic zones under one roof. His seven found sound tunes are layering a rhizomatic veil of unidentifiable web sounds, all transmuted into hazy looped ambiances, that trigger unconscious brain activities with future samples from the past, woven rhythm structures and a simultaneity of moments, derived from myriad world wide web informations. When it’s true, that nothing can have value without being an object of utility, then Pieter Kock managed to give the internet a new rate while using its manyfold informations as a tool to create art. Art, whose originality isn’t defined by the creator’s playful virtuosity. Instead, his sensibility of deciphering unheard rhythms, harmonies, and melodies in an avalanche of prefabricated ideas is his mastery. Pieter Kock transformed them into unfamiliar compositions with a familiar touch, that can evoke the feeling of being synchronous in a world of the many. A data rain without drops, a stream of consciousness without cognizance. Come in, drop out.

Kri Podcast #3 - Adrian Marth

The car rattled and rumbled on through the night, the headlights illuminating the tarmac below and little else. All around them there was a thick dense black – the sort which might weigh you down if you were to let it.

The radio crackled from time to time as they dropped in and out of frequency – they were really in the middle of nowhere.

It was a cold out. Frosty even.

There was no turning back now…

Headman is set to release a new collection of tracks under the title ‘DeTurning’. Described as being a ‘collection which echoes Robi Insinna’s early days in London at the turn of the century where making music became a rebellion against the saccharine sound of the era.’

Taken from "Karolina BNV – Lessons of Good Behaviour EP (Slow Motion Records)". Out March 21st 2024. Buy here : https://slowmotionrec.bandcamp.com

Karolina Bnv makes a glimmering debut on Wrong Era with a 4 track EP set to reinforce the labels’ progressive Italo, Proto sensibilities with forward-thinking flare. Laced with crisp thunderous energy, ‘Good Girls Always Play Piano’ starts the release with strength, marching you into the acidic, electro machine ‘Mouth Work’. Sophistication swims through Karolina’s release, with perfectly placed cinematic vocoder lines and tasteful flashes of electro. 
'Spinal Emotion' is another distinguished synth lead track rich with intelligent earworms rattling through beautiful instrumentation. Triggers and responses dance off each other with ease. The record culminates in the menacing, artful dissonance of ‘They Are Coming', a compelling, aptly named track with a captivating arcane nature. Karolina Bnv leaves listeners with an enticing cliffhanger of what is to come.

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.
