PREMIERE: Olor Acre - Ensue Magnitude [Hedonic Reversal]

Olor Acre is the Barcelona project of Erik Paterna as Stmkh and Xavier Longàs as Refectori who released three albums on the Bestiarie and Hedonic Reversal labels. He has performed in different venues and festivals in Barcelona such as MIRA Festival, in the two editions of Bicefal Festival, as well as bringing techno sounds to the Kreuzberg Club with Diffuse Reality. Also with the HEX collective, he has participated in his second episode at The Loft in Razzmatazz. This project has been carried out with an idea that goes through a process of creation that is defined from the decomposition of sounds already present together with a constant decompassed acceleration that results in structures and forms with different readings.

Omica is the result of a sound conversation between two participants with the necessity to capture a future energy that goes beyond the present.
A journey full of changes that oscillate between the revolutions of biomechanical machines and a constant light that bends time; as well as a fluid that pumps through cables creating structures and rhythms within a fickle space.

Percussions that add up like overtaking on highways and that in turn are accompanied by melodic lines that channel and guide the journey. An abrasive sensation in an unknown place. A metal that is rusting by the very flesh that covers it. The agreement between the organic and present here and the unknown and yet to come, an agreement between two.


Work the machinery. Working on the concern and uncertainty of our own times, the lack and longing for the tangible. The unstoppable advance that questions the physical and the way we relate to what surrounds us and the question of how we will do it in the future with the forms already created and those yet to come. A set of constantly developing surfaces in front of an uncluttered but at the same time prepared landscape waiting to be filled with what is le of us. A wide and flat view where the strength of the mechanical rules.

Release date: June 9th, 2023.

Premiere: Olor Acre - Valves [Hedonic Reversal]

Giovanni Corgiat makes his debut in the extended format and releases his first album under the Catalan label Hedonic Reversal. This Italian artist is a sound perfectionist and a dedicated composer who constantly explores new musical forms due to his diverse training. He graduated in Electronic Engineering from the Politecnico di Torino, completed his studies in Electronic Music Production at the SAE Institute in Milan, and obtained a degree in Electroacoustic Music Composition from the Conservatory "Giuseppe Verdi" in Turin. His dissertation focused on the development of morphing systems and the integration of musical elements.

Antropo-Amorfo is his first album, but it is also an audiovisual project developed with Riccardo Franco-Loiri, aka Akasha, a promising Italian visual artist, member of the prestigious High School of Music and member of the consolidated High Files collective that Akasha co-founded in 2018. The result is a fine speculation on the perception of sound and its relation to human nature, combined with an innovative and creative investigation into digital abstract art. Antropo-Amorfo has already been presented as A/V performance at events such as Paratissima Festival (Ita), Apolide Festival (Ita) and Blues Rauschen (Ger).

ANTROPO-AMORFO A/V project was born by the fortuitous encounter between Giovanni Corgiat Mecio aka Corgiat and Riccardo Franco-Loiri, aka Akasha. The Live Show was conceived by mixing abstraction with concrete forms through extreme manipulation of data and signals in order to seek the point of contact between the ephemeral and the tangible world.

All tracks have been composed using analog synths and processors, real instruments. Raw and free recordings of voice (Claudio lo Russo, Luana Monisteri, Giulia Impache), percussions (Davide Broggini), saxophone (Angelo Rodio), double bass and cello (Piero Poli) have been stretched, morphed and filter to create an interpenetration between physical, analog and digital world. The result is a bpm-less continuous flow of gestures that follow one another spontaneously.

Corgiat at the audio with Ableton live, controller and analog gear communicates with Akasha’s Touchdesigner instances through MAX/MSP patches and OSC in real time, creating an endless A/V flow that hypnotises the audience while sparking new existential questions around human essence.

Release date: July 6th, 2023.

Premiere: Corgiat - Story of a Lamb [Hedonic Reversal]

The transhumanist form overcomes the primordial soup of shapelessness but the vacuity of its eyes generate a cognitive dissonance: is it man, form, an endpoint, or only the concrete beginning of our journey?

Guest today is Vrika, one of our fav djs, humbling to publish this mix :)

Vrika is a Madrid-based dj and producer, part of Calma and Espacio Perpendicular, prolly one of the best music spots in the city.

This trip is a live recording from Espacio Perpendicular, opening an Onyro gathering with Pessimist. 

The journey starts with ambient and drone textures to warm up the engines of the spaceship that takes off in the middle of the set and drifts into complex halftimes and low frequencies always sticking to the oneiric atmospheres.

Vrika's technique is admirable and enviable, seeing him live is an incredible experience, and this journey is an example of his ability to massage your brain hehe

It is an honor to have such an incredible producer, digger and dj on board <3
