Freerotation 2024 : The House Of Crocodiles Part 2 (Live Recording)

Galtier enters for his fifth instalment on his own label with ‘Opaque Envelopes’; an exploration of frequency and tilted sound processing across four slick, mid-tempo creations. Having leant heavily into hardware-focused productions, Galtier has refined his use of raw, one-take recordings and hand-crafted audio inflections, carving out a space dripping with feedback channels, aggressive modulation and dense, weighty sub bass, the collection makes for a set of highly functional, warehouse-ready rollers.

The EP carries itself along a subtle, evolutionary line, where Galtier hones in on transient, shifting soundscapes of rich, searing synthetics, all glued together with tight, syncopated rhythms that channel dubstep and electro. The intention is for each piece to sound alive; teeming with a life of its own, full of personality and vitality that breathes throughout. A significantly mature body of work that encapsulates the decade and a half journey into sound that he has embarked on.

Following the launch of the Eyes series, Early Reflex welcomes back Ikävä Pii for “Eyes II”, the second entry in this exploratory two-tracker format. 

Possibly the darkest tracks Ikävä Pii has produced to date, ‘False Binaries Fight for Primacy’ and ‘Permaweird’ are two detailed and twisted club tunes, encapsulating the perennial state of frustrated urgency of our times. 
Uneasy feelings are conveyed in both tracks, and refracted through the artist’s signature playful approach.
False Binaries Fight for Primacy is driven by the eerie ambiguity of its major/minor harmony, and a relentless rhythmic section that nods to post-punk as much as the track’s distorted, shouty vocals. The unsettling main theme of Permaweird is hinged on an alteration of the Locrian mode (often deemed the “weirdest” mode), and its timbre, albeit recalling familiar patches from the Process Fatigue era, here paints a much darker picture. 
Topical and heartfelt, these tracks update Ikävä Pii’s sound with an uncanny mutation, material for a standout moment in a club set. Already secret weapons in Ikävä Pii’s live show for nearly a year, they’ve left heads spinning on dancefloors in UK, Europe and beyond, and now find their proper home on Early Reflex.

Ikävä Pii said:
“What’s the purpose of club music in a climate where alienation is the norm and outdated narratives are collapsing?
We live in the permaweird: reality gets increasingly absurd, and yet we adapt to it every day.
Nothing to fight for: digital vs physical, liberal left vs authoritarian right, old vs young - just false binaries. There must be another way. 
In the meantime, activate punk mode, shout in the mic, use stranger scales. 
The only real binary is rich vs non-rich (and that’s what clubs should be about).
Thanks Venkatesh Rao and David Rudnick for the inspiration.”

‘Eyes II’ is available on all platforms starting from Friday 2nd May 2025.

𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐃𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬: 𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐌𝐢𝐱 𝐛𝐲 ⊹ Abadir @rami-abadir ⊹

Abadir is one of the most fascinating producers (also a DJ and music journalist) from the contemporary experimental club music world. He is always changing and growing as an artist. He is interested in collaboration and frequently works together with different artists across the world. Whether it's with Nahash, Ehua, Lyra Valenza, or Slikback. From ambient to bass music to mashups and hybrids with rich Arabic rhythms.

"Cultural surroundings could mean rhythmic patterns that exist in the Arab region. I really can’t count the number of rhythmic patterns that we have. I only know a few, like 15 different rhythmic patterns, and I think there are hundreds. So, I’m still discovering, learning, and listening a lot," told Abadir to the Danish blog Passiveaggressive.

𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐱 ➽
"I’m revisiting my early music influences in this special mix. Every artist/band in this mix has been a great source of inspiration to me in terms of production, sound design, mood and how to build a song structure. For the last ten years, I still find a lot of their traces in my music, consciously or subconsciously. I grew up with this music —among others— in the 90’s and 00’s, introduced to these artists through MTV, VH1, magazines like Q, Select and Mixmag, as well as MTV’s late-night programs Alternative Nation and Chill Out Zone. This mix brings back good memories of collecting music on CDs, Cassettes, VHS tapes and later on ripping music on CDs as music piracy took off with Napster, iMesh, Limewire and torrents."
