Liar - Optimix™ Series

Tessier-Ashpool has quickly become one of our favorite labels thanks to a concise and fresh aesthetic that melds techno with bass music in a maelstrom that's at once minimalist and heavy. Label head Liar's remix of "Adapt" is a perfect example of what the label are all about, and if you're into this, take a dive into their catalogue.

"Liar’s Optimix™ is a total deconstruction, and subsequent reconstruction, of “Oazis” assets into a sprawling oriental epic, commencing as a retrofuturist space opera before segueing into a wholly unhinged xenogrime assault (populated with blink-and-you’ll-miss-them nods to our favorite moments in 2014 electronic music). Inspired by Le Dom’s title choice, Liar envisions a surrealist, poignant tableau – augmented Bedouin, astride bionic camels, HF-scimitars in hand, dying in battle to protect the black oasis of their petrostate."

Sonic Router Premiere: Korma - Orloj (Liar Optimix)

@vinakonda is a polymorphic identity in a Cli-Fi universe that writes a story of an adult living through the spectre of their teenagehood.
They try to open a portal between temporalities and slip through identities to let them coexist and to form hybrid sonic echoes: a distorted souvenir of their own teenage bedroom haunted by the ghosts incarnating their potential future selves.

p0g0 is the result of a spontaneous collision between a lie and a truth. It’s a brief, internal struggle against oneself that begins and ends almost in the same instant.

[PREMIERE] Vina Konda - p0g0

@galtier returns to Plasma Sources with Mainframe Incantation, a five-track release marking the 7th position on the label’s roster. First appearing on the Multi Source compilation earlier this year, Galtier now moves beyond the mechanical, sci-fi focus toward a sound that fuses technology with the divine, inhabiting the liminal space between worlds. 

Rooted in the earliest traditions of percussive music as a vehicle for altered states, Mainframe Incantation channels ritual energy through synthesised and digitised means, closing a cultural loop from origin to present. The result is a tension between the spiritual and the mechanical — feverish, dissonant, and hypnotic. 

The journey begins with "Ausmisis States", a restrained, technical opener of squelchy basslines and coarse pads, setting the stage for contact. "Tincture Pump" bursts through next—erratic, bouncy, and high-velocity, with a swelling distortion lead that injects chaotic energy straight to the bloodstream. 

In "Tink Cycle", the pace slows into a groove-laden trance, its caustic bassline dragged forward by steady kicks and splintering snares. At the centre lies "Hex Crawler", a gurgling, otherworldly entity speaking in alien tones before breaking into a vast, unearthly climax. 

Closer "Phantom Tremors" hurls us back toward reality with hasty techno-inflected percussion, metallic strikes, and roaring sub-frequencies. Pulsing hardware bleeps push the final surge, sealing the ritual in a haze of digital energy.

Resident Advisor: "Liar's excellent "Optimix" polishes "Perfection" and builds on its technological theme, adding bleepy computer noises and an extra robotic sheen to the vocal samples. He nearly beats Vladau at his own game."

Boomkat: "Label boss bot, Liar chimes in with a killer Optimix of 'Perfection' pumped with dynamic detail for the club."

For my Optimix™, I opted to incorporate elements of (and nods to) all the tracks on the EP, in what is otherwise a primarily original composition, meant to complement Raul’s concept. Full of hydraulic concretism, sample-&-hold splurging, vitreous sound-design, cheeky easter eggs, horizontal maximalism, vertical sparseness, and unclassifiable, demolishing rhythmics, it’s everything you might have come to expect from a Tessier-Ashpool Optimix™ (if you’ve been following us closely and have also been reading these).

Mutual Friend - Perfection (Liar Optimix)

Rituales

Fuera de Serie

Litter front Drum samples the traditional Taiwanese festive piece Chiao Chien Drum (轎前鼓), a ceremonial rhythm performed during temple parades and deities’ processions. B E N N deconstructs and reassembles its percussive essence, transforming the ritualistic pulse into a tense and immersive study of electronic rhythm.

Rather than directly referencing the traditional form, B E N N fragments and reconfigures it—each strike distorted, stretched, and layered over heavy bass frequencies. The spiritual intensity of temple drumming is reborn through digital sound, morphing into a contemporary, club-oriented propulsion.

The title Litter front Drum symbolizes both fragmentation (litter) and confrontation (front). Here, the drum stands on the sonic frontline, reasserting the power of traditional percussion through digital disintegration. What once resonated through streets and rituals now re-emerges in the circuitry of modern sound.

As part of Hakka Drums II, the track continues B E N N’s ongoing inquiry into the thresholds between local percussive heritage and modern electronic expression—where tradition becomes texture, and rhythm becomes a language of transformation.

✱ SWINE PREMIERE - - @riziomaurizio new EP for - - @all-centre-504822953 label ✱

One of our favorite labels, All Centre, is back with a new project. This time, they welcome Helsinki-based producer Rizio to the roster for his debut on the label. After a breakout 2024 with his first EP on No Snakes and a recent standout appearance on YUKU’s Fresh Faces compilation, Rizio continues to refine his intricate, bass-heavy sound on the Hyperobject EP. Rizio merges geometric rhythms, warped textures, and sub-aquatic bass with vaporous tonal movements.

Dubbed-out bass hits enter the mix as the track strikes a perfect balance between a heady atmosphere and a physical dancefloor cut.

P̷R̷E̷M̷I̷E̷R̷E̷ 🦛✨ B E N N - 一枝香折 [self release]

Hakka Drums II continues B E N N’s exploration of ritualistic percussion and cultural resonance, weaving samples of Taiwanese temple music, Hakka drumming traditions, and electronic rhythmic structures into a dense, cinematic landscape.

Across three tracks, the EP oscillates between trance-like repetition and sonic disintegration—transforming traditional rhythmic motifs into fractured, breathing organisms. The project channels a primal, almost animistic energy, where each drum hit feels like an invocation, and each silence, a moment of reflection.

The Hakka Drums series serves as an ongoing dialogue between ancestral sound and modern rhythm—reimagining the Hakka cultural identity through contemporary electronic production.
In Hakka Drums II, B E N N deepens this dialogue, using sampled ritual sounds, percussive layering, and spatial manipulations to evoke notions of ceremony, procession, and decay.
Each composition unfolds like a ceremony: immersive, fragmented, yet profoundly physical.

NÜ PREMIERE : B E N N -  Wind throng Pines (intro)

❖ SWINE PREMIERE ❖ Listen to new track "OXYD" by @h2ooooo via new label called @sensory-cells

A new chapter for French label @sensory-cells begins. "A first edition, a first release, and the starting point of an adventure devoted to sensory exploration, music, and human collaboration. Born from the desire to connect science and art, matter and emotion, texture and perception, Sensory Cells envisions sound as a medium for sensation."

Project called "Metallic Initiation" opens the series of their Various Artists Compilations - a cycle of musical explorations devoted to exploring synesthetic links through music, around various subjects. For this first edition, metal becomes the thread, expressed through its textures, reflections, and raw sonic presence.

Guest artist H2O, together with the label’s founders Konalgad, Marine Tartine, and ergen101, deliver the debut 12’’ vinyl release of Sensory Cells. A deep sonic study woven with intricate sound design and atmospheres moving between broken techno, ambient, and the more enveloping sides of techno.
