The ninth release of katharsis is the EP “Journey Before Destination” by @jjjacob, which is the first full release of the label founder on his own label. The EP spans six tracks and is quite a deviation in sound from his earlier releases on labels such as ANBA, high heal and Sweat Taste. Taking a step away from his usual tools of heavily automated synths and complex midi-based melodies, this EP focuses closely on recordings of acoustic instruments and vocals done by jjjacob himself throughout the pandemic year.

NoRelay - Hope (Original Mix)

Vigilia explores the fragile boundary between exhaustion and alertness. The track drifts in the tension where fading energy collides with sudden clarity, evoking the fleeting state between wakefulness and surrender. It is not rest, nor full awareness, but a wavering threshold—where the mind lingers when it can no longer choose.

Vigilia

In My Dreams (Part1)

♱ salvation lies within ♱ [the devil wears prada x tyga edit]

Detente (detente11)is releasing his latest project Life Is Life via Belgian label Slagwerk. The album explores themes of finding comfort and acceptance through fragility and passage of time.
With a sonic palette showing sensibility to acoustic instruments the 10 tracks sounds like a blend of Terrence Malick contemplative state and a tender-hearted pastel memento mori.
An echo feeling of intimacy and vague remoteness.

Composed by Detente
Art by Barbara Braccini & Detente
Voice on I Pass By by Malibu
Saxophone on End Of The Road by Simon Burgaud
Mixing by Detente and Lorenzo Targhetta
Mastering by Lorenzo Targhetta
