I made this piece during the winter months when I spent most of my days alone, digging into archives, collecting some forgotten scraps from old tape loops together and melting them with what felt present at the time, those soundscapes that vibrate most beautifully in deep silence.

It consists of two parts - one corresponding to the setting process, the other to resetting, it tells story of leaving traces and covering them up.

Trace had its very first premiere on May 6 at Rewire festival.

Trace

Partly distant BPM’s orbit the subconscious memory; how does one move singularly, idiosyncratically, when the tempo becomes a static force? Washed over by violent algorithmic nudges that generate new content for a niche market hellscape, compulsive LED scrolling habits, and “pristine” maximalism In composition and fidelity, where does one find a stream to mirror back their image these days? Perhaps what stares back is being avoided for a reason.

NAPE hails from London, England and offers 8 crucially crude recordings for Psychic Liberation under the title “TEN TONNE ANGEL”. Dusty headbanger loops filtered through nebulous memories of wall-flowery, inebriated party listening. Which party? Which songs? Harder to identify yet, it all feels like a blur at this point. Think of a sweet spot somewhere between the minimalist electro leanings of Frak at their best, the urgency and tactility of early Unit Moebius, and the more recent live documentation of tour sets by Enrique and Nick Klein. NAPE continues a trajectory of challenging music for a club setting, even though most don’t understand what the challenge really is.

100% of the sales of this is going to the Red Cross Ukraine! 

"I am gravely concerned for the safety of communities in Ukraine. Our message to the parties to the conflict is clear: uphold International Humanitarian Law, protect civilians and essential services". Peter Maurer, President, ICRC. 

It is dismaying that after enduring eight years of conflict, people now face more violence, pain, loss and turmoil. Fear, freezing temperatures and an uncertain future are what families in Ukraine are facing. 

How your donation will help people in Ukraine and the surrounding countries: 

As the security situation allows, the ICRC is responding to urgent humanitarian needs and must be able to continue their life saving work. ICRC water engineers and doctors aim to help more than 3 million people access clean water and improve the living conditions of more than 66,000 whose homes have been damaged by heavy fighting. 

The International Committee of the Red Cross - together with its partners in the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement – remains active in Ukraine, saving and protecting the lives of victims of armed conflict and violence. Our neutral and impartial humanitarian action supports the most vulnerable people: humanitarian needs are enormous, but together we can address them. Your donation will make a huge difference to families in need right now. 

The world is turning to even more shit thanks to fucked up politics and fights over land. Of course we are focued on what is going on in Ukraine at the moment.

Nick Klein - PFEFFERSPRAY

For this second release Soleil Rouge focuses its attention on Jonnnah, one of the key artists since the creation of the project. After a versatile first release on Worst, the artist continues his creative process in the same line. The sequence of atmospheres and landscapes on this album was conceived as a journey into the psyche, more specifically as an analysis of the depressive state and the healing process. Jonnnah recreates familiar feelings and memories and writes an abstract story to allow the listener to interpret. 

"Terra Incognita" introduces us through a phase of doubt and leads to a loss of orientation, then the feeling of anxiety is explored before arriving at "Sounds of Silence" where energies are transformed, the following landscapes allow a slow reconstruction to close this metaphorical journey with "Enter Paradise". “Poppy's Star” was co-produced with French artist Tryphème, whose work was a source of inspiration in the creation of Jonnnah's universe. The fusion of their sound results in a sentimental 80’s pop atmosphere, that is characterized by heavenly sounding delay processing as well as the melancholic voice of Trypheme. Throughout the quarantine, the artist and his father (also a musician) set up a daily artistic ritual in order to use this interlude to promote their common artistic creation, from this sharing was born the track “Young Man, Old Boy”. 
This album takes us through interludes of gritty noise, melancholic pop, avant-garde experimental music and powerful bass music. The artist treats each of these sounds with the same ethereal and melancholic layer creating a link between the atmospheres of his narrative.

This album marks the birth of the Jonnnah artistic entity, right down to the creation of a physical appearance conceived in collaboration with designer William Mora. The two artists worked together to create a series of masks that draw on intimate visuals from the history and culture of Jonnnah. The various masks were conceived as ritualistic costumes for the upcoming performances, participating in the creation of an alter ego between mysticism and chivalry.
