The air was thick with fog; it hung low, clogging her throat and lungs. She was no stranger to this route, in fact she'd taken it time and time again, but today it was completely unrecognisable. A pang of fear hit her square in the stomach - had she missed a turn? She could barely make out the indistinct shapes of oncoming trees and obstacles, the twists and bends in the road had been lost in the mist. Luck was now her best friend; the only thing she could rely on.

Tapan and Decha first crossed paths in 2020 when the Serbian duo remixed her song 'Niebla', taken from her sold-out debut LP Hielo Boca on Malka Tuti. Off the back of the release the duo and vocalist decided to embark on a collaboration which comes in the form of a new single, 'Twenty', which is backed up by remixes from Full Circle and Rebolledo. On the original, Decha's enchanting vocals, both spoken and sung, drift and soar high above Tapan's rumbling subs, thunderous kicks and eerie synths, which are imbued with drama and tension from the get go.

“Voodooridoo” is the debut EP of the collab between Radial Gaze and Pyrame. The result of what had to happen when the two friends finally met in person earlier this year.

Indeed, over a 2 months period, the two electronic musicians quickly hit the ground and regularly caught up at Thisbe Recordings´ HQ in Berlin-Mitte where ideas kept flowing and got recorded. They blent each other´s recipes to produce unpreceded music for both of them. Pyrame´s brain-sticking melodies and basslines as well as odd organic instrumentation found in his studio meet Radial Gaze´s punchy riffs on acid, signature tribal percussions, and brain-washing arpeggiated patterns.

Out of this time in the studio emerged three original tracks. First, “Outrageous” because this is how well the two got on with each other from the first day onwards. “Voodooridoo” came next and was so packed with ideas that the two fellows had to slim down their production at that time. Such a creative process was calling for a third tune, and that one morning when Pyrame came into the studio and shouted “Boa Boa” while Radial Gaze was already working on another acid trippy pattern paved the way for their third track. Their collaborative work and enthusiasm did the rest and their first collab EP was wrapped up.

Orchid joins the EP by remixing the title track into an uptempo rework of the original.

Tracklist: 

1) Voodooridoo
2) Boa Boa  
3) Outrageous

Antoni Maiovvi - Heatsync @ Cafe 9, New Haven, CT - Dec 29, 2023, 9:50PM

SLF IMG is the new Italian synth punk sex wave duo from Umberto Cavalloni and Giacomo Stefani. Co-produced and mixed by Luca Venezia (Curses), their debut EP evokes a romantic 80’s Balearic energy fueled by a dark and driving force of early EBM and proto-funk electro acid.

The obvious influence of early pioneers like, DAF and Nitzer Ebb shines through in a new, more stripped back twisted-pop, tongue-in cheek irony and graceful approach. These are songs for the late night adventures frolicking in the hours past midnight in the strobe lights and misty haze of smoke machines. Something nostalgic yet new with the sound on their debut EP. Catchy hooks but sinister basslines and synths. With a live tour in the works for 2025, SLF IMG are a promising new duo to keep an eye out for. This may be their first EP, but it definitely won’t be their last. SLF IMG are built to last.

Salon Bitter, Jakob Mäder - Take My Time

COV return with release number 058 - the second in their Label Love mini-compilation series, designed to shine a light on the label's rich back catalogue.

Five originals from Bonnie & Klein, MAKS, Andy Buchan, Lanowa and Gus Paterson get the remix treatment.

Secret Soul Society brings a fresh Balearic twist to "Bourbon Street", while Mass Density Human channels his inner '90s rave spirit with a sunrise take on "North".

Gus Paterson transforms "Piano Hands" into an Italo-driven thumper, before Andy Buchan adds a disco twist to "Feels Like Love".

Rounding things off, Bal5000 - fresh from the success of his "The Lake" EP - turns up the heat on "Montalbano".
