Ian Hawgood and James Murray began Slow Reels in 2018 from studios in London and Warsaw. The early work involved exchanging heavily modulated long-form textures, recorded on a variety of instruments, notably vintage synths. Reiterative digital manipulations and successive destructive passes through an end-of-life reel-to-reel tape setup resulted in a collection of entirely unrepeatable drone suites.

Their debut Farewell Islands for Morr Music was met with widespread critical acclaim. Sustain, presented now by Fluid Audio, extends the force of this uncompromising aesthetic further, as the artists’ shared medium further degenerates into overwhelming, full-frequency emotion.

'Out Of Space' is the latest single by Spectrum Vision. This track is a chillout/downtempo composition featuring spacey synths and Ivan's signature sound.

Out Of Space

Excited to announce my new epic 9 minute track called “Colors Of Love” is out now, available as part of a 17 track tribute album called Boundless: A Tribute To Sonic Junkie. This project is in loving memory and honor of my dear friend, and sisters life partner, the late Sonic Junkie.

I put my heart and soul into spearheading this album project over the last few months. We were able to bring together the sounds and visions of some of Vano’s favorite artists, collaborators, and dear friends from the music community into an epic musical journey, including Rob Clouth, Kilowatts, Pathwey, Lunecell, Aligning Minds, Seeded Vision, K-Rai, and many more.

This compilation will be a digital Bandcamp-only release with the possibility of physical copies depending on demand. In addition to the lossless music files, there is also an add-on printable PDF art package featuring visual art, writing/poetry, and other non-musical contributions from Vano’s loving creative community of friends and collaborators.

All proceeds and donations generated by this album will go directly toward funding the commemorative Sonic Junkie Studio, located in Brooklyn, NY. This physical space will house Vano’s music studio as he left it, making it available to the community and his collaborators, keeping his creative spirit alive and well.

We feel this is art in motion and music at its finest: applied to the deeply meaningful purpose of community catharsis, holding the power to help process, translate, communicate and heal a collective wound.

"Kabanjak is one half of the block-rockin’ German hip-hop production and DJ duo Ancient Astronauts, and ESL Music’s newest unique artist signing. With a deep passion for music dating back to a childhood fixated on watching faded footage of Jimi Hendrix performing guitar pyrotechnics, Kabanjak has spent decades honing his skills as a musician, producer, remixer, and DJ. Now he is ready to present his own musical vision with his debut solo album Tree of Mystery!

Kabanjak not only tackles much of Tree of Mystery’s live instrumentation, including guitars, bass, keys, kalimba, flute, and melodica but also teams up with various other vocal and instrumental talents: Steady collaborator Ulf Stricker provides snapping live drum rhythms, Canadian DMC champion and Juno Award winner DJ Brace provides cuts and scratches, poet Azeem (who also appeared on last years debut Ancient Astronauts album We Are To Answer) drops conscious rhymes, and...  more

'The Wave' is taken from Good Lee's upcoming album 'Water Diary'.
'Water Diary' is the new full length album from downtempo producer Good Lee. Expanding beyond his beat driven downtempo aesthetic, 'Water Diary' see's Good Lee explore organic & melodic house, IDM, and other sub genres, to emerge with a contemporary mix of electronic music. Leaning towards a more uptempo, and dance floor aesthetic, 'Water Diary' is an exciting progression for the up & coming producer.

„I must create a system or be enslav’d by another man’s. I will not reason and compare: My business is to create.” – William Blake

Ingo Möll’s everlasting journey went among a myriad of paths over the last decade. Experienced in the craftsmanship of music composing, his work fared from Blues to Dub, from Hip Hop to Psychedelic Rock and beyond. His other projects Ancient Astronauts and Deela are gaining international praise for their own direction of sound, but it’s Kabanjak where you meet his roots.
