Maserati are a band obsessed with process. Specifically, they're obsessed with the process of marrying the past to the future — retro futurists hellbent on forging Krautrock and classic rock into one motorik, monolithic vehicle. Rehumanizer is the most accomplished product of that process to date, a marriage of man and machine that plays like a supergroup comprised of Gary Numan, Cluster, and Pink Floyd.

Recorded and mixed by drummer Mike Albanese – and produced entirely by the band in their own studio – this is the first Maserati album completely devoid of outside collaboration or interference. Building songs up bit by bit — and breaking them back down to their barest elements — Maserati fully embraced technology as a songwriting tool. The band takes greater risks than ever, sonically experimenting on the fly and incorporating unprocessed vocals for the first time ever.

For the past decade Maserati has built a career out of relentless forward momentum – a tight, sleek, chugging beast that drove towards the sun and rarely veered off course. Rehumanizer maintains that same ambition and sense of abandon, but is distinctly as much man as it is machine – a true alliance of the past and the future.

Maserati – Rehumanizer II

Artist: MY DISCO
Title: 1991
Album: Severe
Release Date: October 30, 2015

Pre-Order LP / CD: shop.temporaryresidence.com/trr244
Pre-Order Bandcamp: mydisco.bandcamp.com/album/severe
Pre-Order iTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/album/severe/id1030400796

MY DISCO have always employed space as an instrument. Space between notes; space between instruments; even space between albums, as the Australian trio prepare to release Severe, their first full-length record in nearly five years. More than just a title, Severe pushes MY DISCO’s subtle, intensely focused, minimalist sound to its most terrifying extreme. It is bleak, occasionally uncomfortable, and unpredictably profound.

Recorded, mixed, and produced in Melbourne by acclaimed film composer and producer, Cornel Wilczek. Engineered entirely in a digital domain, the recording process for Severe was a huge change for MY DISCO, who had previously worked with renowned analog tape guru, Steve Albini. The change in process allowed the band the freedom to explore enhanced audio effects, including programmed sine wave drones and heavily effected rhythms and vocals.

Severe is an album of aggravated tonal darkness and long breaths of disturbing silence, punctuated by pounding stabs and heavy, hypnotic rhythms. It is a minimalist approach to maximum sound, and by far the band’s darkest, heaviest, and most consistent album of MY DISCO’s burgeoning career.

MY DISCO - 1991

Artist: Rob Crow's Gloomy Place
Title: Oh, The Sadmakers
Album: You're Doomed. Be Nice.
Release Date: March 4, 2016

Pre-Order CD/LP: shop.temporaryresidence.com/trr264
Pre-Order Bandcamp: robcrow.bandcamp.com/album/you-re-doomed-be-nice
Pre-Order iTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/album/youre-d…d1059507533?ls=1

You're Doomed. Be Nice. is Rob Crow's first album since his heavily-publicized withdrawal from music – specifically the toxic byproducts of the lifestyle of a touring professional musician attempting to survive in an industry of diminishing returns. Rather than perform, record, and mix every note himself – a trademark of his previous solo endeavors – Crow formed Gloomy Place, a band made up of close friends that includes another member of the beloved Heavy Vegetable. Recorded and mixed by Ben Moore (Hot Snakes), You're Doomed presents a fascinating dichotomy: dynamic, eclectic prog-pop backing alarmingly confessional, often acerbic lyrical themes. This juxtaposition makes for an album of confrontational yet accessible songs filled with wry wit and emotional depth.

Whereas Crow's previous solo endeavors acted primarily as low-key stop-gaps between Pinback albums, the stakes are markedly higher here – and it shows in both the depth of songwriting and impressively labyrinthine performances. Gone are the 60-second blink-and-you-missed-them acoustic sketches that became a staple of Crow's solo albums; You're Doomed is filled with the kind of thoughtful attention to detail and craft that was a hallmark of Pinback's legendary catalog.

You're Doomed. Be Nice. is the diamond carved out of a particularly rough chunk of Rob Crow's life – one that's either the first gem of an inspired second act, or the culmination of an undeniably influential career. In either case, the quality of its cut will last a lifetime.

MUSIC VIDEO : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7u5KVcABuRU

Soon after the break with Deadpan Interference back in 2016, Martin Funder, Max Cosnier and Sofie Westh already knew that they weren't done with developing their music. During the years 2017-18 new sounds grew out from their collaboration and is now ready to be shown to the world. 

It's near impossible to put a specific genre on the band's characteristic sound, but the heavy, experimental approach to songwriting and rhythm - mixed with a great love of explosive pop-music - isn't to be mistaken. 
With the new sounds came new songs and an urge to play around with a brand new set up. 

Two members have been added to the Deadpan stable who is now running a pack of five. The new people added is the lead singer Arsene Survie (Syringe) and guitarist and synth player Christian Skibdal (ex-The Wands) 

Deadpan are ready to present themselves with their new EP "Fool Moon" released on December 7th. 
The album has been produced by Oliver Volz (Shiny Darkly) and is being released on Paris based record label Third Coming Records. 

First single from the EP and the titel track Fool Moon is to be released October 18th and will be accompanied by a video made by director Frederik Valentin

Our Work Is Done

We present for you a live set recorded on September 19th at Hypnotic Spa by the Swedish artist Hans Berg, who we were fortunate to be able to invite while he was in town for Sustain-Release. As co-founder of the label UFO Station Recordings with Johanna Knutsson, Hans typically produces and releases spiraling techno with a hint of ethereal. For this occasion he brought a table of gear and performed a touching, massaging soundscape for the Spa. Was a treat to host and meet him and we hope you all enjoy the music.

Kwark - My Here: Jia

With nearly 95 percent of the current DJ population adopting enigmatic personas, it is now our duty to only present music by artists who have the time to present a deeply coded dance music mystery. Enter R.O.S.H., who first came to our attention via French legend Laurent Garnier (a clue?!?). All the info we were provided - a VHS copy of something called “The Crystal Maze” and references to televised ritual humiliation -  was merely the first layer to be peeled back before the ultimate reveal, the kind of “Oh, cool” moment that keeps us all going in these uncertain times.

As any self-respecting Techno Sleuth worth their BPM magnifying glass knows, “You gotta follow the music.” We sat down with a team of empaths to break down the release into a series of generic descriptors we hoped would tell us something about R.O.S.H.’s identity. Here’s what they came up with:

“Techno”
“90s vibes”
“Just the right kind of crazy"
“Emotional”
“Gee, this is really good”

After cross-referencing the data, we found no reason to reject the hypotheses that R.O.S.H. is “probably British” and also “an alien.” All of which is to say that things just got a lot more interesting at Twin Turbo. We’ll keep you posted.

Release date: 06/09/2019

01. 3D Thinking

3D Thinking, with its broken drums, patterns swinging off-grid, and glitched-out chord stabs, is focused entirely on creating a solid, mind-expanding groove. It’s an understated, hypnotic work-out, driven by deep toms, striking the perfect balance between syncopated techno and new UK funky-inspired sounds.

INTERVIEW + TRACKLIST > inverted-audio.com/mix/maelstrom

@maelstrom drops the hammer down badman style, gracing us with a helluva hour-long sonic trip. Spanning from old-school classics (Dopplereffekt, The Hacker…) to present-time sweat-inducers (Norwell, Morphology, Hermeth…), it’s an angry tsunami of paced up electro madness, untamed acid and wild machine funk that’s heading over. Prepare for impact.

Interview

IA MIX 314 Maelstrom

Leonce, one of the strongest rising forces in American dance music today makes his Night Slugs debut with 'Tripwires', a ominous collection of environmental club sounds. His signature eerie melodies creep through erratic drum patterns, with sheets of field recordings and other atmospheres hovering throughout the mix. These five new productions (and one bonus instrumental) make up the most detailed body of work the young artist has released so far, each densely layered with utilitarian sound design and thick harmonics. 

The title track wastes no time throwing the listener deep within the complex universe that Leonce has created, as insect recordings eat through sinister synths, and swarms of glitchy micro-percussion crawl all over an unhinged kick drum. Phantom flutes ride a menacing bassline through a maze of sound on Shutter Drums, a sort of industrial ritual. Quantanoir is a modern tribal house epic, with a mystic mood very familiar to the producers back catalog. Extrapolation is an airy symphony of slams, ghostly bells, and swampy chords pulsating like living, breathing beings. The narrative ends with Shade Incarnate, a pummeling snare frenzy, with rapidfire vocals from Ash B, a New Jersey rapper and public figure in the ballroom scene. 

This EP is a beautiful, yet moody journey though Leonce’s world, and his most refined effort yet. Perfecting techniques and reaching deeper into the unknown, he has mastered his particular style of cryptic club music. Excellently crafted, both by design and function, 'Tripwires' is a perfect addition to the innovative traditions of Night Slugs.

After gracing us with a dizzyingly powerful debut outing on Mind Records earlier this year, Italian producer @afunkdamage punches in with his second delivery, 'Mauro Las Vegas', an all-consuming six-track slab of ruthless basement jams and screwed-up electronics primed for deep-web guerilla warfare and epic bursts of high-octane action in the basement. Landing now via @outoforderlabel, a no-miss.
