Two Doves w/ Icarus Redux & Erlaab - May 2nd 2022

Two Doves w/ Allen Hz & Elysium Alps - Jun 6th 2022

Restrained freakout sonics and subcranial rhythms from the Chennai-based @icarus-redux — “earth-moving kicks, baleful, eyes-dilated synths, and rough, mostly unsampled breakbeats. Fog machine bathing all as one.” 

Inspired as an artist by a mixed bag of artists and theorists that cast light on the darkness - Fisher, Graeber, Preciado, Shadow, Thaemlitz, Tiqqun, Weatherall - an Icarus Redux mix (of which there are many amazing ones on their Soundcloud) has a distinct ebb and flow, often reminding me of early cut-and-paste techniques or Richie Hawtin’s Decks x EFX mixes that reassemble contexts on a micro-level, not just layering tracks over each other but reconstructing them. highlighting the spaces between the notes, the snatches of memory that flit through your brain.

A lot of the tracks from the early 2010s are records I remember hearing and playing when I lived in Leeds, which I had associated with a very different scene that I naively believed at the time would never truly take off Stateside. At the same time, Disclosure were getting big then and I thought the US would pass them over - from downloading italo and house rips off of Bicep's old blog to seeing them headline warehouses in Brooklyn that charge $40+ admission (both Disclosure and Bicep, at this rate it's probably $60+...mais je divague).
