Lies In Soil (Storybook)

I do not dance
I look awkward
I do not drink
I am too much
I smile less
my teeth are not aligned
not too shabby
my gut shines bright red
down the pipe

Suk Hong - Three Movements for the Play Deprived

(UNSLS025)

Crafted with meticulous detail, Hong's six minute debut single on unseelie blends orchestral grandeur with hypermodern sound design in a style reminiscent of James Ferraro, Oneohtrix Point Never or György Ligeti. The song stitches a glitchy spider web of fragmented textures made on Suk's laptop with incidental silences, creating a mesmerizing auditory experience. With its thematic focus on the paradoxical comfort found in discomfort, "Three Movements For The Play Deprived" is a testament to Hong's ability to capture the hidden magic within the mundane.

This narrative is further brought to life by a detailed triptych depicting Suk in a futuristic Korean "BODYFRIEND" massage chair, enveloped by a nightmarish swarm of dancers below an opalescent dancefloor protected by Pegasus. The artwork was painted by renowned visual artist Dian Liang, best known this year for their covers for caro♡ and Holly Waxing (PC Music). "Three Movements For The Play Deprived" is a compelling addition to unseelie's catalog as 2023 comes to a close.

97Paul — 'Repeat' (SLA20)

The 38th release of katharsis and our final release of 2023 is the prodigious compilation "Embracing Darkness, Absorbing Light" featuring a vast array of artist beloved by the label. Throughout the grandiose line-up of the 36 tracks, the listener is absorbed by various differing interpretations of the theme outlined in the title of the album. Some of the invited artist went full into introverted progressions and meditative sounds, while others focused on aggressive rhythms or anthemic melodies. But even though the styles and techniques of the songs differ from each other, the artists seem to have some commonality in their sonic palettes that binds it all together in a mutual love for music as a healing force of nature <3

A reckoning is coming. It looms over us like a massive loomer. I’m talking huge, bigstyle big. An oppressive shadow of pure concentrated indeterminate dread. There will be consequences. What shape might they take? It starts with innerinnerlife’s ‘what rymes with getting by’, out on Transatlantic. It’s upon us now.

Alec Pace - Spherae
Label: Infinite Machine
CAT#: IM110
Format: Digital
Release Date: May 3, 2024

‘Spherae’ marks the return to scenes of Turin-based producer and DJ Alec Pace landing now on Infinite Machine with a mind-melter EP aimed for the club.

Following a 2-year long hiatus from his latest original work ‘Future Now?’ and previous releases on acclaimed labels such as All Centre and Nous Disques, the Italian producer delivers a new psychedelic blend of post-grime and experimental-bass condensed into a powerful club-ready 4-tracker.

Opening track ‘Preemah’ is a dance-floor heater which plays with the alternation of perpetual crescendos and heavy kick-drops, the rhythmic session is based on a glitchy jersey-club beat while the melodic elements work with uplifting synthesizers and heavy manipulated field recordings.

The explorations continues into title track ‘Spherae’, a peak-time ‘ode to speed’ which twists elements and a rhythmic session borrowed from the D’n’B scene while mangling them with ‘pointillistic’ synthesizers and hyper-effected spooky vocals.

‘Khroma’ follows next, a dark and psychedelic roller which will bring the listener into more obscure sound landscapes which delivers robotic GQOM-inspired beats with overdriven-glitchy synthesizers and tribalesque chants.

The alien-shaped beats of ‘Qubo’ closes-down the release with its glitchy-old-skool-electro vibe, combining a rhythmic session which borrows elements from the old-skool electro with analog generated percussions and field recordings.

While touching GQOM-esque and post-grime atmospheres and both pushing BPM-speed limits forwards, ‘Spherae’ explores further into experimental-territories yet remaining true to its club nature
