Zauberstab Volume 1 is a compilation of electronic bedroom music made by contemporary artists that belong to similar sonic spheres, to be released in LIO Press, a new label based in Barcelona founded by Alicia Carrera. The A side feels like a holiday in an exotic landscape; the kind of place you don't want to leave. The B side then goes in a slightly deeper meditative direction, but not too far, since the sparking disco-infused psych exploration of 'Space Surfari' will hold you back from falling into the void of the unconscious. What comes next is the sound that would welcome a moonlit night sky. The C side slinks into a minimal synth oriented exploration, ending with the intergalactic hopeful drift of 'Har'. The last side will provide a comfortable seat on this hypnotic journey. 'Ete 2017' is an ode to the late summer nights, a mind-driving loop carried by gentle percussive sounds, filled with some bass deepness. The next tracks are the the right balance between a hug and a breeze of fresh air for your mind and soul. At this point you might find yourself wondering if it's a good idea to open your eyes or just keep them closed for a bit longer and thoroughly enjoy all of the details of this story. But, why not? This one is, after all, a record to build beautiful memories with.

When Isa Gordon sent the demo of this album to me, I knew I wanted to release it before I had got half way through it. I had previously released her super good Resili collaborative project, but I wasn’t quite prepared for how good this was going to be. Isa is patently a once-in-a-blue moon talen,t and I feel honoured to help get her unique, visionary sounds out into the world. This is next level programming & sound design but always with soul, and musicality. Sui generis.

Isa says:
“For you only came about in the lockdown winter in 2020. I started seeing a lot of beats and motifs that I’d been working on working together as a collection and spent a few months compiling, completing, mixing and weaving together the tracks into a coherent album. 

It was many nights tucked away entering the wormholes of making music and trying to honour the emotion contained in each song by expanding the sentiments within them into complete pieces, chasing down the journey in each one. 

It was a very personal, solitary exploration of how I interpret and compose instrumentals, with the rare global situation inhibiting outsider contact and influence. I include a mix of tempos, styles and freely combine digital and live instruments in order to serve whatever intention or feeling needs to be heard”. 

Isa is an  Ayrshire bred, Glasgow based producer and singer. 

Impressed upon by myriad styles; singing folk music since a youngster; playing guitar since a teen; 
producing electronic music thereafter. 

Now freely cherry-picking whatever sounds, instruments, words and methods serve the feeling. Exploring solitary beat-making as Isa Gordon, and singing and writing heartfelt lyrical ditties with her band Fantasy Land.

Released on vinyl (and digital) on 22/07/2022. Distributed by Kompakt.

Suzzanne by Carlos Angeles is a Deep Progressive House track, that experiments with processed female vocals, around arpeggiated analog synths, trippy ambience and effects, with a very hypnotic character, making it an exciting track for the deep progressive house dance floors.

XK017 | Posthuman - Airwave Uranium (w/ Lou Karsh Remix)

Time seemed to stand still as she walked along the white sandy beach. She crunched the grains between her toes, burying her feet with each step she took. A soft gentle breeze swept over her face, brushing her hair off her face. She couldn't help but sigh. Her troubles all seemed so far away now, a distant memory she could hardly grasp as being reality. As she inhaled and exhaled deeply, everything decompressed.

The next venture on Andy Hart's Voyage Recordings comes from Melbourne-native Rings Around Saturn. The four-tracker, Circling Architecture, follows his releases on Brokntoys, UNTHANK and Analogue Attic, showcasing his ability to create spacious immersive productions, drawing on IDM and techno influences.

Everything that’s happening right now in Australia is terrifying... With so much loss already, increasingly dangerous weather conditions and a useless government there is a lingering feeling of sadness and anxiety in all of us now and for the days to come. Inspired by the ways of others I have decided to use my music as a way to help. Against The Flames consists of 4 unreleased tracks with 100% of the profits going towards the ‘Fire Relief Fund for the First Nations Communities’. Stay safe and to those who can please continue to donate to those who need it.

"ALLT E’NTE" IS A REACTION TO THE EMERGING EXPECTATION ON POLITICIZATION OF MUSIC. A RESPONS TO THE DEMAND AND IMPLICIT CONDITION TO BE CURRENT, RELEVANT AND TAKE A STAND.

ALLT E’NTE REPUDIATES ALL RESPONSIBILITY, CONVEYS HARDLY ANYTHING, BUT HOPEFULLY OCCUPIES SPACE. 

ALLT E’NTE CELEBRATES SYNTHESIS AND REJECTS BINARIES. OUR HOPE IS THAT ALLT E’NTE IS AS OUT-OF-DATE IN 200 YEARS AS IT IS TODAY. NO NEED TO POINT OUT THE PARADOX.

SINCERELY, VANLIGT FOLK

KM056/KESS12 Vanligt Folk - ALLT E’NTE PREVIEW

With so much going on in today’s world, music is often an escape, a vehicle to transport the listener to different worlds, soundscapes and more. Especially now more than ever, we look to music to provide that trip, and through many forms that have happened. With a pause in clubbing, the spotlight has shifted back into the world of Downtempo, Ambient, and all in-between, providing a wealth of mixes, releases, and moments more apt for home.

‘Tomorrow, or till the end of time’ is part of Will Oirson’s seminal offering into the world as the beginning of The Something Something’s label. As creator and curator of the former monthly Red Light Radio show, Will has been refining his taste for years as a purveyor of fine music and this release leaves naught to be desired. Sweeping melancholic pads, intricate auditory details scattered throughout, set the scene for the warm embrace of the bass as the track swells with feelings of future moments, with a tinge of those past.

For all of these reasons and more, we’re happy to highlight Will, his talent, and his ear. We will also be looking ahead for future releases and keeping a close watch on The Something Something! Inland, TSS001 will be out on the 13th of July

PREMIERE: Will Oirson - Tomorrow, Or Till The End Of Time [The Something Something...]

INIT - Bourgeoisie

Artist: https://soundcloud.com/june
Track : Infinity Room
Label : https://soundcloud.com/artificialdance
Format : 12" Vinyl, Digital
Release date : 01/02/21
Purchase : https://artificialdance.bandcamp.com/album/june-horizons-ad012

Following up to his studio companion Trenton Chase’s latest LP ‘Planar Array’ released earlier in 2020, half of Manie Sans Délire June turns up on Artificial Dance with his anticipated new mini-album, ‘Horizons’. True to the signature synth-splattered sound of his and his duo, June’s newest wave-imbued manifesto has us swimming amidst an organized chaos of roughly extruded keyboard wizardry, punk-minded drum programming and a retro-futuristic headspace.

Scanning out the gap between Italo, new wave, EBM and new beat, ‘Horizons’ shifts seamlessly from forward-moving, arpeggio-laden circuitry (‘JW’, ‘Infinity Room') to hi-intensity body music (’New Horizons’), through ambientoid spaced-out sonic explorations (‘Uncharted Territories’) and quirky downtempo chuggers (‘Reverie’, ‘Psychic Process’). A kaleidoscope of rhythmic tricks and shape-shifting mirages, June’s scope-expanding six-track voyage vows to play mind games with its listener till all lights have gone off.
