Semprey - Nosa

Prolific Japanese producer T5UMUT5UMU has built up a reputation in the last few years for his ability not just to recreate club styles but to flip them into almost unrecognizable dancefloor hybrids. "Sea of Trees" follows a blistering run of Bandcamp releases where T5UMUT5UMU has melted together gqom and techno, deconstructed grime and welded dubstep to traditional music from Japan and India. Here, he's operating completely off the grid, pulling raw materials from across the globe and hammering them into confounding shapes and patterns.

On its surface, 'Fireball' sounds like a liquid metal approximation of South African gqom, but move in closer and you can make out dubstep bass squelches, trap hats, and industrial techno jet propulsion filling in the gaps with rubberized mortar. 'Desert' is the EP's most lightheaded cut, a psychedelic percussive spiral that curves micro-tuned mbira clangs around bee sting bass, aerated noise blasts and sub-aqueous kicks. It's a hard track to place, but fits in somewhere between Donato Dozzy, Menzi and 33EMYBW, all shifting rhythms and precision-edited sound design.

'Sea of Trees' retains this momentum, pushing the tempo and interspersing woodblock vibrations with syncopated bass drums and goosebump-inducing synths, while closer 'Bottomless Valley' shifts back into a gqom framework, shuffling the expected pulse with a powerful dembow swing, half step subs and Indian-inspired rattles. "Asyl" is a varied but shockingly coherent statement from an enigmatic producer who refuses to confine himself to a single path, and at a time when "cross-genre" is the norm rather than the exception, it's refreshing to witness a producer who's unafraid to truly make stylistic left-turns, rather than simply mash together top-level aesthetics.

Luminous is the new EP by Tatiana Heuman. This record is a resignification of her nomadic condition and the exploration of what it means to belong to a place called home. It represents the long search for an ideal, luminous space that she can call her own.

Having taken the title of her previous release as her own artist name, she seems to be telling us she has now fully embodied her music, living comfortably in it until she and it are indistinguishable. The new resulting work confirms this. 
Where QEEI the record felt experimental and even tentative, Luminous by QEEI the artist feels self-assured and definite. Structures were restless and meandering, at certain moments they edged toward pop; now they’ve been (mostly) streamlined in favor of club propulsion, with a newfound patience to explore the full potential of every section. 

Where voice was previously at the forefront it has now (mostly) been mangled into submission and made to blend into a more forceful sounding whole. The percussion, which was timid and darting before, has (mostly) also been put to the service of Groove, often locking into dense, forward-moving patterns that are sure to be effective on dancefloor bodies. 

“Mostly”, because Luminous is not without its tender moments, namely the stunning sister pieces ‘Alarma 1’ and ‘Alarma 2’. Here, the muscular percussion drops out and the voice returns as the main character for two beautiful, haunting interludes. 
While still on a search for a base, a physical terrain with which to identify, her progression as an artist tells us that she is firmly on her way to making a luminous shelter out of her music.
