MARAZ - DON'T BE FEAR

exclusive | Wilba - Freaks of Nature | Fraise Records

Wilba returns to his own Fraise Records with “Retracing The Steps,” a four-track expedition that refines the DNA of his Duowe sound into something moodier, deeper, and distinctly personal. Drawing from the energy of open-air festival sets and long nights under the canopy, the EP bridges Tech House and Electro with precision - stripped grooves, rumbling basslines, and shimmering atmospheres built for woodland floors and intimate basements alike.

The B1 track, “Freaks of Nature”, creates one of the record’s most captivating moments - a hypnotic yet grounded groover that balances weight and warmth with finesse. A playful, looping synth line weaves through the track like a soft hallucination, locking into a groove that’s equal parts driving and dreamlike. When the break unfolds, delicate bell-like tones drift in, briefly softening the track’s pulse before it plunges back into its bass-fueled momentum.

It’s a masterclass in control: heavy without ever feeling forced, melodic without losing its edge. “Freaks of Nature” embodies that rare duality of being both introspective and club-effective - a track that lures dancers deeper into the night, whether it’s echoing through a forest clearing or shaking the walls of a dark, low-ceilinged room. Another fine example of Wilba’s evolving craft, where emotion and rhythm move in perfect sync.

Partnering with Ineffable Records, this split further dives into the garage sub-genre. On the A-Side is New Beginning, an EP from Not By Me. Brooding, swirling, beautiful music. On the B-side is yourtears, a harder edged, emotional journey. Each side comes with an ambient deconstruction of a track from Haunted Ghost.

SSR016: Not By Me / yourtears Split SNIPPETS

The human brain processes emotion by categorizing all input according to two responses: sympathetic and parasympathetic (i.e. “fight or flight”). Imagine a graph with two axes: one axis representing a state of stimulation (from excited to calm), the other depicting stimuli as being negative or positive.

In his book The Man Who Lied to His Laptop, the late Clifford Nass refers to these two plots respectively as “arousal” and “valence.” Whether an emotion makes us feel angry, humiliated, serene, jubilant, frightened or something else, the brain’s job is to determine what level of valence or arousal is appropriate for a given situation. Although Nass’s book doesn’t go into the Goldilocks Zone as such, the author does explore how the brain constantly resets itself chemically in an attempt to keep us “just right.”

For this weirdly industrial-sounding piece, Suss Müsik attempted to capture the polarities and nuances between valence and arousal. The main pounding riff (the “arousal” side) was created with a pitch-shifter applied to acoustic guitar. The “valence” side is an analog synth wash combined with audio scans of two-dimensional artwork. The two sides meet somewhere in the middle, thanks to some liberal digital-delay phasing and a Ditto looping pedal.

The piece, entitled Nass, was recorded live to 8-track with no overdubs. The image was created by visual artist B.G. Madden.

A beautiful split between Chile based iugou and Georgian native St Ativa. Bright house, flashes of electro, at times jubilant and also melancholic.
