The latest release by the Mexican avant-garde label Akumandra is founder Sainte Vie’s three track auditive voyage: From Desolate Places and Forgotten Times. Going beyond previous experimentation with sound assemblage and sampling from non-western musical traditions, Sainte Vie crafts his signature mesmerizing soundscapes by combining dreamlike synth textures, monumental drops and vibrant melodies that feel deeply melancholic. Insistent arpeggios and expansive build ups bind the tracks together in an ebb and flow of dynamic energy. 

High Seas 
Overlaid synth patterns, like waves, propel us into a mixed-percussion drop that settles on a harmonic calm before another surge of synth arpeggios drive us farther along into the thrilling sensation of voyage. 
		
Whale
Disembodied vocals, like cetaceans communicating, echo each other, creating a ghostly undercurrent to the vigorous percussion and futuristic synth arpeggios. 

Darko
Backed by an eerie melody and punctuated by a lead-heavy bass drum, a deep, guttural voice plunges us into the dark flow of time.

Spectral in theme and profoundly engaged with the sensorial quality of music, Sainte Vie’s EP transports the listener to a place that feels distant like uncharted waters, yet familiar like a memory.

We welcome "Herr Lang" to Verflixt. He is an exceptional music and illustration artist from Hamburg. On his wish, he created the cover himself and gave it its very own conceptual vibe. His production are characterized by a dreamy atmosphere with an unique special Hamburg sound. You feel like sitting on the harbour watching the birds flying over the water and boats passing by. With his first release on Verflixt he worked with the great Mollono.Bass together and created a beautiful sound structured 3 Track EP. We are really happy to have him on our imprint with his new EP "Traum".
"The lead Track „Deep in my Mind„ describes what it means. Just get lost!"
"The second track" Notes "arises from the intention to start something new. It's not about doing it. It's just about the intention."
"Mollono.Bass remixed the lead track "Deep in my Mind” and it is a beautiful blend between mind games. No words can describe what you feel. 
This is an EP to sit on the water and play with your mind.
