Out 28.01.2022

Up next in our main series are Milan-based dub techno outfit Primal Code. With a solid back catalogue comprising releases for Hypnus Records, TGP and Konstrukt, the Italian duo have honed their skills to impressive effect over the last few years, forging a sound signature thoroughly engaging on both body and cerebral levels, and now punching in on KOC to breathe further hard-hitting opaque heat into the collection.

Putting things into gear, “AI Calculator” propels us across dim-lit streetscapes and murky subterranean entrails, pared-down to a minimal array of modular signals, subtle machine inflections and particularly acute rhythmic progression. Steering the original into further pumped-up, DJ-friendly territories, NAFF affiliate Priori drops the hammer badman style, bringing forth the racing muscular bass and squelchy machine talk on loop mode to keep everyone on their toes from start to finish.

Flexing a different kind of acidic swagger, “Autopilot” pulls out the weird extra-terrestrial jazz tropes and whirling dynamics for a round of proper otherworldly bop in the outer-space. Last but not least, “Mainframe” rounds off the release on a more openly experimental note, letting the loops, envelopes and textures float in a haze of half-controlled abstraction. The result evokes something of an immunocompromised Rubber Johnny getting glazed as he weightlessly drifts off from a galaxy to another, and into another world completely.

These pieces produced by Modvs (@modvs) emulate and capture the atmosphere experienced in a forgotten city space. Mayfield Train Station stands in the heart of the city. A piece of Manchester’s history that remains inhabited, abandoned and frozen in time. Much of the structure is unsafe, poorly lit and access is nearly impossible. Inside lies vast dark rooms, decaying platforms and crumbling brick walls. Modvs takes it upon himself to explore such environments, taking inspiration and enlightenment that he injects into his music. This EP showcases the contrasting feelings one can experience when delving further into the darkness. All this also interpreted by Antonio Vázquez (@versenkt) and Korridor (@korridor)

PL1 – The first track mirrors the foreboding nature of the dark open space deep inside the structure. Shards of light dulled by dust particles cut through holes in the wall. Droplets of water fall from the towering roofs echoing throughout the open cavern. Noises from outside the station rise and fall creating moments of suspense and fear. The mood enhances as footsteps rattle from room to room giving you a sense of what might have existed in a forgotten time. Delving further into the dark brings only loneliness and isolation.

PL2 – The second track leads you across the platform. A place once inhabited by the hustle and bustle of travelers awaiting their connection, now lays decaying and ghostly. If you close your eyes you can sometimes hear the faint sounds of steam and footsteps ascending the platform approach. A hypnotic but driving track that captures the essence of depth in the most captivating environment imaginable. Words can’t describe the feeling of standing in a forgotten world surrounded by echoing memories, but music can.

Italian freshmen, Primal Code, grace the 8th release with four tracks of soothing storytelling. The duo’s visitation targets the mesmerising consolation of an indigenous area. Their sound blooms violet across fields; swaying, conscious of its place in the wind. Each song stands as an analysis of deep, diverse and detail driven biota. Slow melodies and eerie atmosphere offer something that shows us how beautiful Primal Code’s sound is.

Abandon all expectations ye who enter here, Other Lands (previous, druid-like incantations on FIREC015 Mac-Talla Nan Creag) got you covered with a truly compelling assortment of jazz snaz and post-armaggedon cosmo-disco oddities; occupying the space between alien-revisited exotica, classic jacking house workouts and a BoC 'Chromakey Dreamcoat' kinda vibe, seemingly elusive at first but definitely familiar to the ears of uncool survivors like you and I. One thing's sure, Other Lands could throw a balearic party at one of Berghain's most secret leather-friendly backrooms that it wouldn't feel out of place. Never mind the weird, inverse sun-tan lines.

Exclusively Distributed Worldwide by Rubadub.

Released Mid February, 2018.

FIREC025 Other Lands - Pattern Transform EP

Following up Lou Karsh’s excellent “Ataraxia” EP we’re hitting up Australia once again, such is the level of burgeoning talent down under. This time it’s the turn of Sydney native E Davd. Manu originally got in touch with a bunch of demos just short of two years ago in the spring of 2016, so for once it’s really no exaggeration to say that this has been a “long time in the works”. Only one track from that initial offering made the release and it’s been a real pleasure witnessing Manu’s creative evolution in that time, not to mention the success of his debut EP on Manchester based label, Natural Sciences.

The self-styled Cosmic Healer turns in an EP of similar flavor to his first effort; ice cold pads, hypnotic 303 basslines and liberal use of that 707 rim shot combine to create a record shot through with reflection and melancholy. Tales of lost love and memories past course through every track. Manu sums up the inspiration behind the EP really well, so we’re going to leave the rest of this write up to the artist for once...

Released 18th May 2018.

In the moonlight there was little to hold onto but one another beneath the glow of the faint white light up high above in the darkened sky. Close to me I watched the people come and go from the empty bar, they would walk through the illuminated door before observing the bleak and lonely scene with a sense of melancholy and sadness. The night outside was cold and harsh yet in here it was warm and welcoming. If only the rest of the world was simply able to see...

This one is beautiful. No Really. Guaranteed summer bliss reminiscent of the Italian dream house era for the present. The guys from Craigie Knowes found Paolo on Youtube jamming out on some rare hardware and this is his first release. Wow.

A dead calm had invaded the night. The temple’s music and the perfumes had already faded in the air. I arrived at the oasis in the dark of night, standing in soft, fresh sand. Finding myself in a kingdom of silence. Sotis had just made its appearance in the sky and was showing itself timidly to the world.

Fascinated with the sight, I once again started thinking about my unknown origins and the reason why I, Kalila, was at that place at that moment. A memory. The Priestess at Hathor's temple. The glass flask. I put my hand in the pocket of my tunic and with surprise found a small flask filled with a red liquid. My head started throbbing wildly, eyes closing for the pain and the priestess's bright face appeared in my mind telling me

“Drink and you’ll come to life again.”

I drank. Feeling my body slipping and melting with the sand underneath. A vortex of feelings and memories wrapping itself around me. I knew who I was. I knew what I had to do. Akhet had finally come.

We kick off with the expert vocal inputs and stripped back bass tones of 'Away', followed closely by the bouncy designs and breaksy inputs of 'Babylon' and the unpredictable rhythmic manoeuvres of 'Letters' alongside Sampladelic. From here we dive into the smooth sub roles and groovy drum shakes of 'Polarity' before rounding everything off with 'Subtraction', a super choppy finale, alternating between different vocal slices, marinating amidst a warm, fuzzy sub-line below

They didn't come here for nothing. Spacelunch was promising the merge with energy-informational thinking substances at the level of elementary particles. The crystal sound spread like ectoplasm along the walls of the reflecting vessel of the universe. Drama and the eager grin of adventure have slowed down, bowing its heads in submission to the convergence of musical exuberance. Meditation on the event horizon lit the torch of sharpened perception of all the amplitude shifts.

Dubby substrate absorbed every scrap of the all-pervading ether. This meant that the indefatigable pioneers had harnessed the elements, becoming the bearers of important, extracted knowledge. From now on, their bioresonators are as precisely tuned as possible to the condensation of acoustic waves, which, like a compass, will point the way to the probabilities that emit a powerful impulse. Space stalking and audio transcription are being taken to the new dimensions.
