Sterlo - Lost In Time

Artist: https://soundcloud.com/endobliss

In December 2021, Intersub was born. Part collective, part ensemble, part label, part platform. One year later, our undefinable format has morphed into a compilation of genre-bending sound that journeys through modular synthesis, atmospheric soundscapes, and meditative drones that are disturbed by sirens without compromise. With this compilation we delve into the incomprehensibility of our shared realities - oscillating within the emotive spectrum of the human experience. We celebrate the variety and depth of the music produced by the talented artists in this compilation, and release it with gratitude for the chance to meet such inspiring people in such a short space of time.

Taken from SBKT054: Gorgonn - Six Paths
Release date: 31st January

In Japanese Buddhism, it's believed that when someone dies they are ushered down one of six paths depending on the karma accumulated during their previous lives. A being might end up in the world of humans, animals, demigods, or celestials, but it's also possible to end up reborn as a pitiable hungry ghost, doomed to an existence of insatiable desire, or even worse - be sent to hell, or jigoku. Ruled over by the Japanese lord of death Emma-ō, this hell isn't quite like the Christian hell, it's closer to purgatory, and cleansing the karma can take hundreds of millions of years of excruciating torture in extreme cold or immense fire. Japanese bass alchemist Gorgonn takes these themes as the basis of his debut album "Six Paths", assembling a spiritually weighty set of futurist dubs that consider the possibility that our mortal domain might be closer to hell than we realize.

Gorgonn describes himself as a Japalien exile. He left the country of his birth almost two decades ago, and since then has been working tirelessly to formulate Jamaican dub, noise, techno, and no-wave into a sound he calls "sci-fi steppas". If you've not come across his name before, there's a good chance you've heard his reverberations. An established sound tech who's worked with The Bug, Hype Williams, Seefeel and others, he's part of G36 with Kevin Martin, Dokkebi Q with Kiki Hitomi, and a former member of Devilman with DJ Scotch Egg and Bo Ningen's Taigen Kawabe. Just last year he released the acclaimed "Disentegration Dubs" full-length alongside JK Flesh, the veteran producer who's best known for masterminding Godflesh. All this experience blesses Gorgonn's productions with remarkable sonic force, and "Six Paths" is his most crushing display yet, smelting cannonball bass and osmium beats into sharp-edged soundsystem weapons.

Look no further than opener 'Abyss' for evidence of this: psychedelic synths draw the mind away from the mortal realm, while tangled, distorted beats push us back down to earth, our faces crushed into the grit and gravel. Using tweaked sub bass and unsettling drones, Gorgonn lays out a cinematic backdrop for the album, drawing us into a world that's terrifying, viscous, and nauseatingly familiar. There's a militaristic roll to 'Without Beginning and End', a track that juxtaposes spacey halfstep thrusts with death metal distortion, footwork polyrhythms, and unearthly pads that addresses the crushing endlessness of jigoku. On 'Invisible' meanwhile, Gorgonn torches the skeletal remains of D&B, abstracting familiar rhythmic patterns into fuzzy, ritualistic cycles that sound both ancient and humming with prospective technology. But on the closing track 'Life as a Beast', it sounds as if Gorgonn has come to a conclusion, and in a flurry of acid squelches and doomy foghorn bass blasts, he seems to have accepted that being reincarnated as an animal might be the best anyone can hope for. Who knows, you might end up as a cat.

Gorgonn - Without Beginning or End

🇫🇷
Cela faisait un certain temps que nous n’avions pas sorti de dubstep sur Egregore Collective, et qui de mieux placé pour la tâche que le producteur Parisien Argo.

Tout droit venu de la banlieue et désormais installé dans la capitale, cela fait presque une décennie qu’Argo se taille une place de choix dans le paysage dubstep français, et en est désormais un des noms les plus reconnus. Les fans du genre seront sans doute familier·es de son travail très prolifique, reconnu par les labels les plus respectés de la scène tels que Sentry, Artikal ou encore le sous label de White Peach Yellow Flower.

Sur les talons de son album acclamé sur Encrypted Audio, il signe 4 tracks qui témoignent de sa versatilité quand il s’agit d’explorer le spectre entourant la bass musique à 140 bpm avec son approche de beatmaker, son univers sombre et mélancolique ponctué de samples de jeux vidéo. Pour compléter l’EP, Pardon transforme le puissant morceau titre ‘Coupable’ en un remix incisif, futuriste et grimey.

It’s been a while since we put out some proper dubstep on Egregore Collective, and who would be better suited to the task than parisian producer Argo.

Hailing from the banlieue of Paris and now currently based in the capital, Argo has spent almost a decade earning himself a reputation as one of the most recognizable French 140 producers. Fans of the genre should be familiar with his extremely prolific output, having signed on well respected labels such as Sentry, Artikal, or White Peach’s Yellow Flower sublabel.

Hot on the heels of his acclaimed LP on Encrypted Audio, he delivers a 4-tracker that showcases his versatility when it comes to exploring the spectrum around 140 bpm music with his trademark beatmaker approach, dark and moody cuts punctuated by video game samples. To complement the release, friend of the collective Pardon takes the heavy hitting title track ‘Coupable’ and turns it into a sharp, futuristic and grimey sounding remix.
