Are you going to write a book or something on how to stretch space-time and squeeze it and smack it's ass to make it sound like that? What kind of equipment do you use to record that?

@kleipotkind: and your reaction to my music makes me equally happy, so thanks :) x

Over three years since the conception of our record label, we are proud to finally unveil our first full-length album - one that is truly held close to our hearts. It is only right that we welcome one of our biggest inspirations and dearest friends over the years for his inaugural solo release on the imprint.

Since our discovery of Montreal-based producer gonima a half-decade ago, we were certain that we wanted him to be part of what would eventually become Satellite Era. His sound felt incredibly familiar to us as connoisseurs of ambient and electronica, yet distinct enough to be easily identifiable. Fans of Telefon Tel Aviv, Lusine, Mr. Projectile, and other landmarks in this rustic realm will feel right at home. He effortlessly combines warm and emotive sounds from the early-2000s golden-age of in-home listening music with stuttering percussion frequently heard in glitch-centric subgenres. The byproduct of this, along with a splash of clever song arrangement and chord progression, is what gonima’s renowned formula consists of.

With a clear nod to yesteryear’s wave of ambient and electronica, “Escapism” captures the essence of what made that era so pivotal, while enhancing its sound with modern elements and an effort to portray a storytelling experience. The album taps into duality with a contrast between clean, high-fidelity sounds and gritty low-end that is meant to elevate the listening experience through physicality. It is unafraid to recycle some of gonima’s signature production characteristics: uplifting songs drenched in lush, nostalgic tones that are occasionally met with the chaos of digitized drums. Avid fans of his discography will surely recognize his sonic presence in tracks like “Monostable” and “Imminence,” where saturated pads add a fuzzy coating of sound upon his typically pristine production. Each song feels multilayered, with hidden artifacts existing in between; it revives the curiosity of dusty electronics met with precision. 

Although most of “Escapism” seems cohesive and builds off its centralized theme, there are a few instances that allow the listener to step away and appreciate a diverse sense of improvisation: the live guitar in “Turning,” the spaced-out vocals in “Sculpt3-spaces,” and the use of real drum breaks in “Inevitable State” all contribute to this feeling. These small moments are important in building lore, while also showcasing gonima’s newfound curiosity for stepping out of his established processes. As the album begins to decompress, we are met with a slower pace, more repetition, and the inevitable conclusion to a once expanding world. “Doors Of The Mind” utilizes an odd time signature to deliver moody melodic sequences met with shuffling drums. “Places, Things” sprinkles wholesome piano keys over a glitchy, low-tempo hip-hop beat. The outro of the album is a wind tunnel of ambiance that leaves it entirely open for interpretation.

“Escapism” can be best described as the love story between two foundational aspects of a human’s life: imagination and reality. It expresses the necessity of both sides to coincide peacefully, without relying on each other to function properly. It is unmeant to replace the challenges and ruggedness of reality; the beauty lies within its imperfections. Its immersion is amplified by a vessel of imagination only existing in this outlandish space. It leaves behind a meaningful relic of gonima’s best and most confident work to date.

What entices you to close your eyes? What healing sounds surround you in your dreams?

Daed is back with his glitchiest and most crazy offering yet:

With each passing day, it becomes increasingly difficult to discern between what has been generated by algorithms and what has been crafted by human beings. The art we consume, the media we engage with, the very fabric of our perceived reality – it all blends together.

We are now governed by algorithms.

Welcome to the Simulcracy.

Sole Massif’s Recursion is an evolutionary, laser-cut expression of digitalism and sonic experience. SM’s monumental approach to experimental and surgical sound design procures visions of cybernetic hubs, militant artificial intelligence protocols—and renegade security forces—drenched in a high-tech dystopian dreamscapes. Recursion threshes the listener into unpredictable and unwavering tenacity from start to finish, with tracks pushing devastatingly heavy wave structures one minute, and expressing enriched mechanical atmospheres the next. With an abstract narrative interwoven with cinematic overtones, Recursion ensures that each listen provides a unique experience.

Produced, mixed and mastered by Sole Massif

AKA "The geometry of Chaos".
Experimental music, Abstract Electronica, Breakcore, melodic Drum'n'bass, Ambient, Hardcore, Broken beat, IDM, disturbing Dub-influenced Electronic, and any sound experiments we listen to, we love, we live with, are the ones that we support.

Founded in London in 2007, Kaometry AKA The geometry of chaos is an independent label based in Berlin (Germany).

Following its multicultural genesis, Kaometry dedicates itself to the promotion of non-conformist, innovative and eclectic music. Our project is to offer a portal and a mean of expression for artists that don't fit the mold. We do not break down music to an academic concept or a product, we are not adding numbers on a sheet, and we are not counting sales figures, we produce the music that moves us, that adds intensity to our life experiences. Music is a conversation.
