shut up i'm dreaming

"What do you feel when you look into a mirror? How do you behave when you are observed, how do you observe yourself? Where does love exist in our bodies?"

Much like his namesake, Pascäal quantifies units of internal pressure, stress, and ecstatic release.

His music finds us ascending to phoenix-like points of greatest intensity within ourselves - a flammable mental peak of emotive energy that erupts into a revitalizing blaze, before basking in the illuminated potential of its glowing embers. It's through these combustive states of being that we find ourselves blossoming in cycles of renewal, guiding ourselves into expansion beyond self-imposed limits. Exploring these liminal zones on his second full-length album and first aural excursion for Dreamtone, NYC's Pascäal presents an exercise in lucidity for the mind, body, and soul - pushing onwards through stasis and uncertainty to paint a beautifully inspired picture of forward momentum and nonlinear progress.

Written in various states of mental isolation and fixation on the physical form, the 10 tracks contained within "BODY" seek to activate bliss and release the listener from cycles of rumination. Every musical component evolves in separate unison, activating momentum within the neurons and blood flow of the greater whole. Cascades of supple frequencies envelop themselves within webs of buoyant, percussive flourishes - enlivening refrains that urge focus to drift, to break the mind from obstructive cycles and allow a panoramic view of the self. Tender spontaneity and the multiplicity of thought are given space to manifest, as loops, repetition, and time dilation envelop us within an oscillating calm and the sublimation of effervescent love vibrations.

The nature of BODY's recording can be attributed to this phenomena - each track was recorded in one-take sessions during moonlit hours, a practice of meditative disengagement from the world at the close of a day's routine. As the listless obligations of our day-to-day briefly dissipate in these planes of luminosity, previously buried forms of desire and progress are given form and meaning as we engage with sound and ourselves. Boundless fluidity and unrestricted desire intertwine in swirls of light refractions and intricate pulsations. Rhythmatic pulsations take on the flow of breathwork, aligning a newfound awareness of being as we attempt to achieve tranquility in settings constantly punctuated by disorder. Forming a casual kinship between his sonic expression and the unique healing ability of musical trance states, Pascäal sketches the outlines of a world where pain and insecurity pass through our state of being into an astral beyond, clearing pathways for newfound possibilities of evolution and love. "BODY" embraces this revelry of the present moment - anxieties regarding any semblance of "journey" or "destination" evaporate into nonbeing, thriving within liminality in a constant pursuit of congruence and equanimity.

Everything is possible.

[Preview] Pascäal - Hyphae Drip [Out Feb 4th!] (DT002)

bambinodj’s ‘lost riddim’ finds itself navigating a fog-cloaked, otherworldly expanse. It’s a tune designed to freeze time in the late hours, fusing chain-reacted rhythmic mechanics with slow-drifting synth eddies and spectral dancehall vocals plucked from the ether. It’s blue-light music, raw sapphire refracted and refined through clubspace mist.

‘lost riddim’ opens our forthcoming ‘Performance Enhancers’ compilation. It sits alongside music by DJ RISH, Jetty, and PELLE ROCK.

‘Performance Enhancers’ drops March 25th on TT.

As friends, coming together to make music feels like a special occasion that's filled with lots of love and care, friendship and happy feelings. The tracks reflect that as well - they're bouncy, ebullient, fun, warm, and effervescent."

JKTN075 features respected and prolific North American artists, Ciel and Ali Berger, who are pairing up for their first collaboration. The three original tracks deliver an irresistible energy, with bouncing rhythms, catchy mutant melodies, and undeniable warmth. If that wasn't enough, the remixes come from two producers who truly craft their own sound and style and sound like no other - Atlanta’s Nikki Nair and Pittsburgh’s Davis Galvin. 

This EP is headed straight for the DJs and to a dancefloor near you.
