Hermetics returns with Vertigo of Eternity, which sees the Colombian producer serving up a debut album even warmer, deeper, richer, and finer than the very best cocoa his home nation has to offer. Released 29th November, after a string of stunning EPs, Vertigo of Eternity is his most eclectic, diverse and incredible work to date.

Back in 2018, Santiago Nino (AKA Hermetics) participated in an Ayahuasca ceremony, (a spiritual, shamanic ritual designed to take you on a journey into a higher state of consciousness.) The experience was life changing. Hermetics explains more: “In the most intense moment of the journey, after the near-complete dissolution of my ego and my identity, I encountered an overwhelming, radiant, and dizzying spiral that defies description. The freedom, beauty, and terror were so intense that in that moment, I found solace in being a limited human, in a body, on this planet.”

Years later, Hermetics listened to an interview with Dutch philosopher and LSD experimenter Bernando Kastrup, who after a similar experience, coined the term Vertigo of Eternity.

Press play on track 1, Avalon (ft.Yoyoyo), and Hermetics will take you to his event horizon, teetering on the edge of all existence, building from a unique distorted pad bassline into the most beautiful sonic journey, simultaneously you are deep in the Colombian rainforest and at the centre of the galaxy. In Track 2, the titular Vertigo of Eternity, with it’s beautiful breakbeats and interplay between the sonically beautiful and terrifying, Hermetics sends you a message from that journey: “While many claim to seek freedom, very few truly desire it or could endure its weight.”

Gratitude brings a tribal beat, with glitchy insects flying through the ether, surrounding you, as the famous monologue from American Beauty sounds more poignant than ever before.

Vertigo of Eternity is an album far greater than a collection of songs. The album flows beautifully, ever changing, ever innovating, transcending almost every conceivable genre, sometimes within a single track with an enormous sense of freedom.

Hermetics explains: “That sense of freedom has come at the cost of many deaths, sacrifices, and rebirths. Thus, this album serves as a tribute to limitless freedom—what I call the Vertigo of Eternity.”

"Arvid Wretman, AKA Your Planet Is Next, has assumed the role of musical storyteller with a serious mean streak of DIY electro. Wretman’s latest album tells its tale through the eyes of an imagined anti-hero. He conjures up the gritty underbelly of an over-populated megalopolis; a world of dilapidation, ruin and sin, where stiletto knives are a dime a dozen and our titular protagonist, the FOG MAN, stalks the streets.."

We are so happy to be able to release a new ep to the world with so many beautiful people involved. At first @margo.feirabend (Maria Eugênia Feirabend) (Instagram) went on an excursion to visit one of the original peoples and helped us make this communication and record the songs of the Shanenawa tribe. Shanenawa meaning ‘People of the blue bird’. It is a very beautiful bird that existed and is now endangered. It is because of its rarity that we are different; That's why the Shanenawa people only have one in Acre and they don't have one anywhere else in Brazil.

Synergising their respective studio prowesses and harnessing their accomplished hardware artistry has helped establish Neon Chambers as a modern symbiosis of atmospheric, contemporary club sounds, and multi-rhythmic machine-driven sonics, the two producers have set out on the beginning of a new era of electrifying, astute sound design, and breathtaking modern electronic music.

The duo’s debut EP, One is a whirlwind of crushing modern sonics, that is equal parts jagged rave, progressive dub-fuelled two-step and night time-ethereal IDM. Throughout all five-tracks, the producers wield a wicked awareness of state-of-the-art sound design, that makes each kick cerebral, every bass-sound an epic vibration, and every synth a futuristic cacophony of finely-tuned noise. The sounds are an amalgamation of everything that has made each artistic unique in their own right, while correspondingly helping create something new. ‘Apollo’ is a prodigious working of melodic synthesis, with delicate, and rolling breaks, while ‘Cascade’ moves into a more grandiose, heavenly territory, befit with trance-like, precision synthesis. ‘What it takes’ brings on board a more UK, post-dubstep sound, albeit one with more craft, and sonic mastership. ‘Your Touch’ toys once more with atmospheric rolling breaks and solemn vocal samples, while ‘Helles’, the closing track, is an excursion into more compelling, auditory realms.

Neon Chambers is the new project of UK producer Sigha, and French artist Kangding Ray. Sigha, aka. techno producer James Shaw comes from a steadfast background in abstract and grounded techno, with previous works on Token Blueprint, Avian and his own Our Circular Sound imprint. Kangding Ray, aka. David Letellier, has made a career for himself with genre-breaking and experimental sonic adventures that have taken him across such era-defying labels such as Raster-Noton, and Stroboscopic Artefacts. In 2019, he also started his own imprint ara for more bespoke, avant-garde releases. The duo came together to create Neon Chambers to further extend their analogous ambitions, and create bigger, and more daring live and audiovisual performances.

PBR Streetgang return to their home imprint KURTZ to deliver their latest EP ‘Sendeturm’, accompanied by a remix from Paranoid London’s Johnny Aux.

Long-standing members of the house and disco landscape with releases via the likes of Skint, Crosstown Rebels and Futureboogie amongst many, Bonar Bradberry and Tom Thorpe, aka PBR Streetgang, continue to evolve and impress as one of the most consistent and diverse duos on the scene. Holding down residencies at the likes of Pikes in Ibiza, whilst making stand-out appearances at the likes of Glastonbury, Printworks and Love International – a festival which holds a special place within this latest EP – the duo launched their vinyl-focused KURTZ imprint in 2019 in impressive style, gaining support from the likes of DJ Harvey, Bicep, Soul Clap, and the late great Andrew Weatherall. Following a brief hiatus, the duo now return to home turf with possibly the strongest release on the label to date as they unveil their ‘Senderturm’ EP, welcoming Paranoid London member and electro-favourite Johnny Aux on remix duties.

Opening cut ‘Zoot Module’ welcomes a moody, low-slung slab of electro with haunting riffs and eerie synth lines which hold your sonic gaze front and centre, whilst title production ‘Sendeturm’, named after the lookout tower above the Love International site, takes listeners on a dreamy beat-less ride through melancholic tones and showcases an ode to a summer lost in place of beauty.

On the flip, Johnny Aux’s interpretation of ‘Zoot Module’ welcomes his signature rough and raw dirtbox sound which buries its way under your skin to reveal a pacey, true body mover, before closing proceedings via the blissful and rich ‘Thru The Shutters’ – a production imagined as the final track in the early hours of a Sunday morning dancefloor and a hypnotic closer that shapes up proceedings in emphatic fashion.

Label: Too Rough 4 Radio
Artist: Various (DJ .wav)
Format: Cassette, Digital
Cat. Number: Rough Cuts 04
EP Title: Influx EP
Release Date: February 18th, 2021
Support it: https://toorough4radio.bandcamp.com/album/rough-cuts-04-dj-wav-influx-ep

Carved out of the deep underbelly of driving electro, beautiful landscapes come to the surface in this 8 track journey Influx EP by DJ .wav. The turbulence of rumbling yet metered rhythms and icesharp staccato basslines, layered with FM-synth pads, are only just some of the blended elements this artist, who has released on the labels a friend in need and Special Species Records. The release,
by German-based label Too Rough 4 Radio’s Rough Cuts 04, captures club energy with joint forces in moody electro bliss for effective dancefloor weapons for all environments.

Translucent and ethereal are not the most common words associated with an effective electro cut, but this track (“Abyssal Zone”) by DJ .wav delivers both with invigorating momentum. The
hypnoticism of evocative female singing, reminiscent of Aphex Twin’s “Xtal,” combined with crisp electro hi hats and straight synth lead arpeggios, make a great selection for reigniting a second wind
on the dancefloor.
