Listen to "Leave The Door Open" by Alto Aria taken from "Limerence" out on 14th February via Rhizome

Pre-order: https://rhz000.bandcamp.com/album/limerence

‘Limerence’ is an album dedicated to the brokenhearted - for those whose hearts aren’t mirrored. The songs together are manifold, insisting on the variety of emotions that arise when you have a broken heart but at the same time do not see yourself as broken.

Sonically, the album deals with softness and hardness. It weaves these two together to create tension and release. Throughout the album whispering voices, field recordings, strings, and hard cold beats create the foundation for different feelings to unfold.

Listen to "never alone always many" by sortlegeme taken from "they are many" out on 16th February via Barkhausen

Pre-order: https://srtrecs.bandcamp.com/album/they-are-many

Following acclaimed underground releases on labels like Schacke’s imprint Moral Defeat, Katharsis and Perfect Aesthetics, Danish electronic musician Sortlegeme (the solo moniker of Jeppe Dalsgaard Andersen) returns with his most spellbinding work to date. “They Are Many” is an album of sprawling textures that like music in its most intuitive state captures the essence of the indescribable.

Built from polyrhythmic synth lines that surge towards sensory overload, “They Are Many” is equally full of subtle layers that emerge delicately from the foundations. In this ever-evolving sonic landscape, one senses the earthly, deliberate movements of tectonic plates colliding before settling into yet another million years of relentless grind. It's a soundscape that teeters on the edge of a total breaking point: a beautifully ominous foreshadowing of collapse.

Andersen reflects: “I was playing Starcraft at the time I made this music, and I think the Zerg was an inspiration and model for this kind of life. I was thinking about creeping and crawling things. The album reflects on the world humans might leave behind in our self-destruction and how opportunistic species might thrive in our absence, like weeds sprouting from the ashes of a forest fire. I was always big on post-rock, and this setup allowed me to do big buildups in that style.”

With “They Are Many,” Andersen fully embraces a departure from any rhythmic constraints in his music, allowing for expansive exploration throughout the album. While hope – or what is left of it – might seem sparse in the album's 45-minute journey, the music is punctuated by beautiful, voice-like melodies that are eventually overwhelmed by a noisy climax, leading to a profound numbness. The sensation is akin to synthesizers forging their way towards the void.

Andersen: “We as humans are often consumed by our knowledge, ethics, and complex systems, but sometimes it's important to remember that life's origin is pure survival. Our present culture is overly intellectual, and I find myself drawn to the instinctive, opportunistic aspects of life, much like a hive of smaller organisms operates, without conscious thought. We tend to view everything from our individualistic, single-body perspective, forgetting that the world's very essence is multiplicity.”

Listen to "Dissssollllutionn" by metra.vestlud taken from "Crystallllliiiine" out on 15th April via ФАКТУРА

Pre-order: https://faktura-ural.bandcamp.com/album/crystallllliiiine

What if your audio notifications on your phone started to take on a life of their own?
They would communicate with each other, build romantic relationships, go to visit each other, and occasionally fly off on vacation.
Can you envision that? Let's take it a step further. Let the sound notifications become creatures that live only somewhere in the range of sound waves from 20 to 20,000 Hz. And with some skill they can be heard and even captured in a three-dimensional sound photo.

Artem Dultsev is a sound sculptor, digital artist and co-founder of the label ФАКТУРА (FAKTURA). After releases on Ikuisuus, Bamboo Shows and Kofla tapes, he returns to ФАКТУРА with a new album influenced by the meta-modernist works of Hiroshi Yoshimura and Visible Cloaks.

"Crystallllliiiine" is a dance of sound sculptures, a synesthesia of sound and color in a finely ordered chaos of crystalline lattices. Where sound biomes are filled with small organisms, in whose world life boils.

[Premiere] metra.vestlud - Dissssollllutionn (ФАКТУРА)

The first vinyl release from Doyenne Books via Boomkat Editions arrives as an anthology of love song covers - release date: 11th April 2024.

Taking its name from the etymology behind the well known myth of ‘Aphrodite’, meaning: “sea-foam", "risen from the foam" - the fifth release from Doyenne brings together friends, lovers and the broken-hearted under one premise. The commission was to make a ‘love song cover’, in which each artist has had free reign in the interpretation of ‘love’ as well as the style and rendition of their favourite musical pieces on love: Agape (unconditional love), unrequited love, philautia (self love), lost love, mania (obsessive love).

From bygone sea shanties to 90s r’n’b, post-punk, jazz greats, indie pop and 19th century classical, Doyenne label mates Christina Vantzou, Susu Laroche, and Spivak, are joined by a diverse cast of friends new and old. Alex Zhang Hungtai’s deconstructed cover of Sinatra sits beside Aya’s darkened Lovesong, whilst Claire Rousay, Wild Terrier Orchestra’s Jay Glass Dubs and Dania Shihab of Paralaxe Editions take on soft vocal covers of iconic alt bands. Manchester’s Teresa Winter does British folk, and South Korean duo Salamanda rework Debussy.

Aho Ssan is the artist name of Paris based Niamké Désiré. After studying graphic design and cinema, he began to com-pose electronic music and create his own digital instruments. Shortly thereafter he went on to win the Foundation France television prize for his soundtrack to the film of Ingha Mago in 2015 and has worked on several projects related to IRCAM/GRM in France. His debut LP «Simulacrum» was released on the 7th of February 2020 via Subtext Recordings.Based on the concept of Jean Baudrillard, it navigates through society’s presentation of inclusivity and equality against my own experience of growing up black in France.

🌿 ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ꜱᴏɴɪᴄ ᴀɢᴇɴᴄʏ

Spurred on by the acuteness of current global events, we are raising our voices in solidarity with the oppressed, the tortured, the silenced, and the unheard. While humanity is at stake, and our values are on trial, in moments of despair, rage and endless grief, acts of solidarity are needed more than ever. The events that shake Palestine and Israel are resulting in an ever-tighter spiral of violence and desperation. They are a horrific wake-up call that brutally brings the precarious situation on our planet to the fore. The humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, and Israel’s collective punishment of Palestinian civilians are intolerable. On top of that, the military actions threaten the lives of the remaining hostages in the Gaza-Strip, and even more innocent people in Gaza.

…being together, in community

Out now - https://displayseries.bandcamp.com/album/027-028-burning-pyre-kid-smpl

DISPLAY’s first split tape release of 2024 features two pieces by the artist Burning Pyre: one solo and one in collaboration with the label’s founder, Kid Smpl.

The release begins with the nearly 18 minute long solo track “Healthcare.” A meditative piece that mutates from washed out dronescapes to crystal clear synth constructions all emblematic of the artist’s pensive and imaginative style. On the B-Side we find “Peradam” a shimmering, snow-blinded collaboration that highlights both of the artists’ melodic sensibilities.
