Vertige II is the second compilation to be released on Abîme, gathering tracks from ten artists to explore the Vertige concept with a wider spectrum of intents.  

It features contributions from musicians all around the globe, each of them delivering an interpretation of this ambivalent sensation that could be equally seen as a positive or negative feeling if taken in its plurality of meanings.

Ranging from GIL’ dizzying textures in ‘Storm Petrel’ to the sweetness of Fauness’ guitars in ‘Am I ready’, Vertige II finds its coherence when seen as a progression, a back and forth between fear and love, with each track responding to the previous one by being its deforming mirror.

Vertige II puts the emphasis on vocal tracks, but again doesn’t limit itself to a one-sided approach, and that’s how Lil Asaf’s harsh Jordanian rap can be found coexisting with Flagalova’ anthemic pop and Ptwiggs’ shoegaze ‘Forever is not enough’. 

As the successor of our first compilation, this record can be seen as both a continuation and a rupture in comparison with it. The delicate sound palette of the original opus has exploded and expanded into an ecletic collection of pieces, sometimes frightening and overwhelming, and sometimes soothing and reassuring, as is the Vertige.

Warsaw’s Julek Ploski presents a new album Hotel **** . A cinematic collection that shows a hybridity between baroque composition and electronic production, Hotel ****  balances a strident melancholic sense of hardcore urgency with delicate fairytale affect. Though rarely veering into direct dance music, the album uses those crescendo-based tropes to narrative ends, creating spellbinding and dynamic movements of electronic music. Both ornate and dysphoric, the album transposes a kind of hyperreal iron-age orchestral folklore into a bombed out digital sci-fi wasteland; a symphony of shattered mythic motifs being bit-warped on the last harddrive in the fallout shelter.
