Twenty-four years on from its original release, Monolake's seminal Gravity receives its first vinyl pressing courtesy of Field Records. Occupying its own space at the intersection of dub techno, minimal and electronica, it's an ageless album of staggering vision and technological prowess which has matured into an all-time pillar of electronic music. This edition, remastered by the album's key architect Robert Henke, follows on from the recent reissue of Monolake's first album, Hongkong.

Arriving just after the turn of the millennium, Gravity marked a turning point for Monolake. With co-founder Gerhard Behles moving on to other ventures, Henke produced most of the album solo and journeyed deeper into spatial exploration and the dub-informed principles that underpinned their project from the start. Minimalism and negative space run through the whole record, from the keen slithers of percussion pinging through lattices of delay to the hypnotising pulse of subliminal basslines anchoring the tracks. Gravity is a record which hangs on techno's linearity as a form of meditation, but the crystalline clarity of the mix allows every micro-fluctuation in rhythm and sound to cut through.

Compared to a lot of overly sterile digital music released in the early 2000s, Gravity endures thanks to the warmth and texture Henke elicited from his processes — even when leaning into none-more-digital effects like bit reduction. He described the ninth-floor view over Berlin from his studio at night as a key influence on the sound of the record, but the space Gravity shapes out feels thrillingly implacable. Unbound by the standard conventions of time and space, Gravity stands proud as a true original and finally gets the ceremonious vinyl pressing it so richly deserves.

Vicki Siolos is an ambient/experimental DJ from New York City. After 15 years working in music journalism, publicity, and booking, she followed her intuition into DJing, drawn to the freedom of shaping sound in real time. For over 5 years, she’s hosted Bright Patterns on The Lot Radio as a perpetual canvas for sonic landscapes. Each month’s show is an attempt to capture life in the moment, letting sounds surface as they want to be heard.

She’s contributed multiple mixes to Mysteries of the Deep as well as Deep Breakfast, Sure Thing, Moods, Daisychain, and Delayed. The set she played at the inaugural Mostra Festival in Barcelona connected her with a like-minded community that opened the door to appearances in Madrid at Calma and Espacio Perpendicular. Her ambient style brought her to play in Scotland and Japan, and Enmossed commissioned her for what Boomkat called a “glacially paced and immersive” mix tape, affectionately titled Kintsugi as a reflection on resilience and the beauty in imperfection.

Creating space for others has always been a driving force in her work. Bright Patterns has welcomed both first-time DJs and seasoned selectors, building an archive that speaks for itself. A defining moment in her journey was joining the Outer Space chapter of No Way Back during the pandemic, where she crafted a set dedicated entirely to Norm Chambers' catalog. His music—along with artists like Jo Johnson, Throbbing Gristle, Loscil, Imaginary Softwoods, and Tarotplane—continues to shape her sonic world. She later honored Norm’s legacy with Panabrite Patterns, a tribute spanning four artists closely tied to his work.

Lately, Vicki is channeling her evolving relationship with music into original productions, shaping sound in her own way.

| EPISODE 219 | Vicki Siolos

Producer, live performer, sound artist and DJ, Trois-Quarts Taxi System (Eloi Petillon) is part of a post-covid generation that fully embraces its hybrid style, freeing itself from genre assignments to create complex, hypnotic soundscapes. Dubstep, techno, electroacoustic and even dnb are just some of the valleys he flies over and mixes in search of cerebral, psychedelic and unpredictable experiences where futuristic sound design, field recording and polyrhythms combine and confront each other.

He is  a resident on Rinse and Lyl radio stations, in 2019 he co-founded the De la... je l'espère collective and label, and the following year the Hard Love Motor Love label, dedicated to experimental music and visual creations. In 2024 he and DalidaCarnage released the first album of their duo Malesa, mixing bass music, trip-hop and poetry in Spanish. He went on to perform across Europe after a number of releases on French and international labels, including Norberg Festival, RSO, NDK Festival and, more recently, Positive Education.

Our Life With The Wave [Original mix]

SORN is excited to present the debut 12" EP from d. towärds, Rephlex EP, a bold and captivating exploration of sound. Spanning tracks crafted between 2021 and 2024, the EP offers a unique blend of minimalist, dub-inflected textures, creating unpredictable sonic landscapes that constantly evolve.
The tracks are stripped down, often reduced to mere echoes and ghostly pulses, yet there's a tactile weight to the production that pulls the listener in. This is dub in its most abstract form: a deconstruction that shifts the focus from rhythm to texture, from structure to atmosphere. The result is a work that feels both timeless and dislocated.
With nods to the experimental rigor of Pan Sonic and the icy precision of Raster-Noton, Rephlex EP is less an homage and more an interrogation.

SORN 005 - d. towärds - Rephlex EP

READ > inverted-audio.com/premiere-d-towards-my-mind

London-based experimental vanguard SORN gear up to drop their fifth artefact ‘Rephlex’, a shape-shifting suite of tracks from the Samara-based alchemist d. towärds...For our premiere, we zoom in on ‘my mind’ - a woozy descent into percussive mirage and psychoacoustic trickery. The track opens with slippery, delay-drenched drums that slither like AI serpents in a low-gravity ritual. Hiss-stained textures ripple in the periphery, while submerged low-end pressure keeps things anchored to the earth’s core, or at least somewhere beneath it. As the piece evolves, it mutates into a chrome-dipped hybrid of electro and ancient drone, suggesting the breath of unseen biomechanical fauna roaming deep, moss-cloaked networks. Listening feels like stumbling across a buried satellite still transmitting emotional code, flickering with the echoes of something once human.
