The next release on Ara-u’s No Static / Automatic comes from Konerytmi aka Kiril Junolainen. The Konerytmi project began in 2020 combining electro, techno and acid sounds with a gliding and clean-edged production aesthetic. On Moottoritie EP he channels in the energy and flow of traversing the speed-limitless autobahn while giving a cool nod to the aesthetic of Scandinavian electro sounds a la Stilleben Records.

Dual Reality

Premiere : Aki Himanen & Aleksi Kinnunen - Thriving Static [JOT033]

Changed the picture, the AI umbrella was replaced by wet bricks of the streets on Urk, a former island in The Netherlands that stole my heart a little.
I like AI, but I also see many dangers coming with it. How much does it actualy cost to generate one picture? So, I will share my scenes from my own life in flesh and blood, stones and woods, whatever I find irl.

Drizzle

“Decisions”, an introspective journey through the myriad choices we face daily.
Some synths poppy melodies with experimental structures, I think. 
I hope you're feeling welcome into this surreal world where every decision teeters between reality and imagination. All these decisions!

******** L Y R I C S ******** 

Let's get up, or maybe not 
Have some breakfast, or maybe not 
Have a smoke, or maybe not 
Have a coffee, or maybe not 

Close my eyes again, or maybe not 
Check my phone, or maybe not 
Look in the mirror, or maybe not 
Or maybe yes? Or maybe not. 

Decisions, decisions, decisions,
all day long...

 Tell the truth, or maybe not
 Let it hurt, or maybe not
 Open up, or maybe not
 Fall in love? … or maybe not

Laugh out loud, or maybe not
 Scream inside, or maybe not
 Say I care, or maybe not
 Disappear? … or maybe not
 
Decisions decisions decisions,
all day long

Dance alone, or maybe not
Sing off-key, or maybe not
Wear a hat, or maybe not
Change my name? … or maybe not

Eat dessert, or maybe not
Call my friend, or maybe not
Try a cult, or maybe not
Move to Mars? … or maybe not

Decisions

Ben Pest and ARA-U unite for the next release on No Static / Automatic. Kaos Sympatik EP started life with the pair recording jams of various vintage studio kit, including an EMS VCS3, Roland VP330 and an Orgon Systems prototype known only as the “Silver Box”, which developed into full tracks over subsequent sessions.

Ben Pest has been busy releasing high grade club tracks including collabs with Radioactive Man and Kursa for Asking For Trouble and Love Love Records last year, and with solo EPs dropping on Cultivated Electronics and Posh End music. Here he links with NS/A boss ARA-U, turning out some of their headiest material to date.

ARA-U X Ben Pest - Err Hello [NSA012]

Another collab with Textured Grooves! 

It feels so familiar
I know something similar
You sure you no relative?

     The past keeps playing me.

The vibes are reliable
it is undeniable
It all seems inevitable

I hear stories
They resonate
But from what I do not know

The past is elusive
The future seclusive
Am I in the middle of it

The past keeps playing me.

I hear stories
They resonate
But from what I do not know

   The past ke-keeps playing me

     We live in echoes.

        The past keeps playing me.

Though it seems estranging
everything is always changing
so common, I cannot get used to it. 

There is no other time than now.

... The past keeps playing me.

Cue 23 from the soundtrack for the imaginary movie Regattara. This is a rather slow paced chase sequence through the backstreets of a small Italian town.

Composed October 2025

The kAndyKollective plays the music of Andy Parrott. 

Middling music from a middle aged, middle Britain, middle class kind of kollective who have listened to far too much music over the years to come up with anything  coherent. 

Think blues, think 70s prog, think heavy rock, think jazz, think baroque, think minimalism, think electronica, think dance. Think of something new.

Some artwork by my friend Kelv who has style. You can find more by him at www.instagram.com/kelvinjenkins6/
