@cupocupo - Armor EP
[PAYNOMINDTOUS, PNMTU004, out Dec. 3rd, 2021]

CupoCupo is a duo of musicians hailing from Bergamo, Italy, presenting their second work after the debut ‘Hypermetabolism’ EP out earlier this year on the US label @wearetar. Coming with an album cover by the Italian visual artist eurasiandesert [https://instagram.com/eurasiandesert/] and an official two-sided A5 300 gr. cardboard artwork print, the 4-tracker release is a coherent, eventful episode of knife-edge post-club hybridization, a treasury of outstanding sound design skills, vicious bass handling, and rhythmical obsessivity.

The centerpiece of their work is extensive vocal manipulation, employing voice chops with the role of primary composition tools within the multi-faceted pieces rich in heavy kick drums, snappy percussions, and gurgling vibrations. Drawing influence from contemporary electronic genres as well as free-form experimental music, the EP is closed by a trancey, grandiose rework of the opening track Yerro curated by the influential artist @galentipton (she/they), and a somber, pitch-black remix by Italian-based composer and producer @shevsmachine (she/her).

With ‘Armor’, CupoCupo hand out explosions of shattered sounds cramming themselves in turbulent flows of energy, where self-perception is challenged, strength is tested, and certainties are dismantled. Sealed lips utter red-hot rants oscillating from burning outbursts of chaos to sudden clarity. Tragic voices sing penetrating ballads for wandering bodies, waiting for their destiny to manifest and vehemently start opposing it. Light comes with darkness, and anything can be worth struggling for. CupoCupo’s outings are nothing but heartfelt testimony that brighter times are yet to come. Or not. 

01-04: Produced and mixed by CupoCupo. 05-06 remixed by Galent Tipton and SHE/MACHINE, respectively. Mastering by @wimdehaen. Artwork and flyer design by eurasiandesert.

This collaborative release aims to merge the universes and styles of different independent artists, as well as their communities. 
Comechelet wanted to collaborate with labels from various countries across the world to make the internet community around electronic music groups, and to show that geographical distance and international conflicts don't prevent artists from working together.

The theme of this album is water, its flow, its sound and its natural environment. 
As always, we try to bring in a touch of poetry, science fiction and fantasy.

Too Rough 4 Radio is a “hazy, chicken wings on wax, tape and digital" label helmed by En_rico and Florian and based between Berlin and Haldensleben, Germany. A home for a multitude of up-and-coming acts, for their latest V/A package they call on an array of fledgling producers, each of whom puts in an impressive shift here. Clued-in sounds for clued-in heads, this is a release that fans of discerning house are sure to lap up, with TR4R 02 featuring no less than 6 producers and friends of the label.

Joakim Hellgren’s d&b focused contribution, ‘Boy’ is undoubtedly the most ‘different’ of all the tracks on show on TR4R02, principally because it adheres to a more d&b heavy theme. An urban-inspired gem that could well have come from the streets of East London, it displays an unlikely albeit welcome side to the label. An occupational sound designer currently residing in Stockholm, Sweden, Joakim's passion for sound exploration has landed him opportunities to express himself artistically through his occupation, which has resulted in critically acclaimed projects. A key member of the Osignat crew, he has played alongside the likes of DJ Boring and released on VAs alongside the likes of DJ Swagger and DJ Windows XP to name a few.

PREMIERE: Joakim Hellgren - Boy (TR4R 02)

The last release of the year for Secret Souls is from myself, eevee, the founder and curator. I wonder // lost your love is a surprising drum and bass track but with my signature lofi sound and angelic chorus. This style is characteristic of my label, which is a curation of new styles of electronic music from my close friends and fellow producers. I'm showing that neither me, nor my label, are conforming to any one style, all while maintaining a certain aesthetic that can only be defined as eevee.

Contact us at contact@secret-souls.com to submit your demos. We are always open to discovering new talent. Much love!
