VFO.05 V/A - No Digging After Midnight [Previews]

It’s time to embark on the next chapter of extra-terrestrial worldbuilding - the second instalment of Seismic Records is here. Stepping in is sonic explorer Pyramid of Knowledge a.k.a. K.O.P 32. Based in Seoul but born and raised in France, the Beyond The Bridge label head is blending his Tekno roots with an introspective approach to music, carving out a trademark sound led by pensive rhythms and psychedelic atmospheres. With fierce precision and spellbinding force - you’re invited to explore the unknown depths of your psyche as you enter the state of ‘Fusion’.
In all its ominous grace, the journey takes off with ‘CFU’. A kaleidoscope-esque acid ritual is guided by subtle yet uptempo kicks, lifting us into the first phase of the cleansing. Followed by ‘Xer’, where an ancient chant introduces the next dimension of consciousness-expansion. The progression of energy tells us that the higher powers have bigger plans for us - a phase that is entered on the B-side. ‘TV’ surges in tempo and raises blood pressure with an annihilating paradox of the calm and the chaotic. For those who managed to withstand all phases of the occult test, reconciliation is near as ‘Yrots’ strikes down with a mind-warping drum workout for the body and soul.
Enter the heart of a psychedelic odyssey and swirl into the labyrinthine pathways of your ego as you enter the Fusion by K.O.P. 32.

Dycide’s new album ‚Cult of the Black Moon‘ marks a powerful turn to the deep Drum and Bass realm, demonstrating a refined evolution in his sound. With a rich blend of tribal percussive elements and his signature, highly detailed sound design, the album presents a compelling fusion of old and new. Innovative rhythms break free from typical drum and bass conventions, offering something unique and extraordinary.  Dycide’s mastery of the grey area—where the lines between genres blur—is evident throughout. 
In this sonic journey, the listener is invited to explore a space that feels both ancient and futuristic—a place where the myths and legends of the universe live, whispered in the shadows of distant stars. Legends of the cosmos often speak of hidden forces and forgotten realms, places where the boundaries between reality and myth blur. Cult of the Black Moon taps into this mystical narrative, conjuring an audio experience that feels like a transmission from the farthest reaches of space. Each track seems to echo the stories of celestial bodies and cosmic events, where the line between creation and destruction is thin, and the unknown reigns supreme.
This thematic depth is complemented by the closing remixes from MTRL and Tenzia. These remixes not only add fresh interpretations to the existing tracks but also bring an added layer of complexity and dynamism to the album.

Monochrome 𝖑𝖎𝖛𝖊 𝖘𝖊𝖘𝖘𝖎𝖔𝖓 : Bipolar • Outra Cena [18.01.25]

Bipolar’s sound is a unique fusion of techno, tekno, trance, tribe, ambient, and drone music. His sets seamlessly blend fast and slow, deep and energetic rhythms, inviting listeners on a journey through various layers of perception. This dynamic balance of introspection and energetic extroversion mirrors his own experiences in contrasting environments, from the raw underground free party scenes to the structured world of clubbing in Europe’s most iconic cities. His moniker, ‘bipolar’, perfectly captures his ability to navigate musical and emotional polarities.

Artist words : 
This mix was recorded in a place very special to me: Outra Cena in Lisbon for the second time. The club allowed me to play before one of my favourite artists so in This Side's room. 

The set is a pure crescendo, starting from a relaxed, ambient atmosphere and gradually building in intensity throughout the night. It felt unique and raw to be immersed in that dark, sweaty space, filled with smoke and powered by an immense, crystal-clear sound system.

These three hours truly represent my deepest, most minimalistic style: welcoming the dancers, creating a bond, and then passing the energy to the one and only Woody92.

I’m thrilled that this mix has been published on Monochrome. Enjoy.

Alex Dolby returns to Evod with an IDM odyssey. Across this album, microscopic glitch-click patterns collide with live-instrument incursions, forging a sound both mechanical and organic. Rhythms twist into asymmetrical lock-grooves and melodies emerge in unexpected moments. The result is an immersive journey through texture and time: challenging and strangely emotive.

New month, new Slime Session, new immersive journey into the deep rhythmic and eerie techno of @2lpe.

Marie-Eve aka 2LPE is inspired by songs with a multitude of haunting sounds and a steady rhythm. Her interpretation of music has always been to share emotions and sensations. Being able to share her musical vision is an insatiable motivation.

Listening to 2LPE’s set is an evolving experience, feeling a gradual intensity with persistent energy. When we discovered her sounds on the dance floor, her pulsating kicks made us dance through the night. Having her on slime today is an exciting moment as we can share with you this quivering podcast.

Thank you Marie-Eve <3

We wish you a good listening !
