https://orcd.co/uysr103

For this release we wanted to pick up where we left off and take a leap forward as a band. After two single releases on different labels, trying to stay relevant in a difficult period for live music, we are excited to be able to present a coherent ensemble of 4 tracks on Underyourskin Records! The meaning of the title is at the same time retrospective and ambitious! Enjoy!

In a time where electronic music gets harder and faster each day, Berlin-based duo Brigade‘s debut album „Hard Times, Soft Music“ reclaims easy listening as a badge of honour. Being released on the 14.10.2022, the record is a meticulously calibrated work of room temperature, a home cooked meal between friends or a warm sonic blanket that tugs you in after a rainy day. Pushing their club roots to the side, Brigade‘s debut album confidently sits between ambient, house and hip hop. „We took the pandemic as a cue to take a break from dancefloor productions and play around with different genres and production styles.“ The first single „International Communication™“ showcases that breadth and introduces an album pretty much anyone in the post-Shrek cultural landscape could agree on. Basically, if you appreciate a good hug, chances are you‘ll enjoy this LP. 
Also, theres a pretty cute dog on the cover.

Hard Times, Soft Music

Brigade - Life After Plastic (LUL021)

get it here: https://lnk.to/Rampue-BubblebathTrance-ATribeCalledKotori

This long-awaited project from A Tribe Called Kotori marks the collective's first full-length venture, featuring the immensely talented Rampue. Known for his phantasmagorical soundscapes, Rampue navigates the realms of electronica, abstract music, and balearic-infused progressive house with exceptional mastery. Based in Berlin, this virtuoso manages to mesmerize and elevate listeners through twelve extraordinary tracks, forming the foundation of this resplendently textured sonic journey. His compositions oscillate between understated euphoria and riveting exoticism, reflecting his prowess in evoking contrasting emotions through his music.

The creative journey leading to the birth of 'Bubblebath Trance' is a tale of irony and serenity intertwined. As Rampue recalls, "It all started and ended in the same moment: my cherished feline companion, my laptop awash with an unintended bath, and alas, a dearth of backups." This unfortunate series of events led to an outcome echoing a kind of chaotic tranquility. This serenity, born from stepping into a bubbling primitive chaos, permeates throughout the album, enriching the overall listening experience.

Rampue's debut album subtly imitates the "euphonious strains" of iconic PlayStation 1 video game soundtracks from his youth. The music sweeps listeners into a paradoxical emotional experience—imbued with nostalgia, yet vibrant and dynamic. It’s as though listeners are offered a bird's eye view of the world below, allowing them to rise slowly through the atmosphere's layers towards uncharted territories.

Rampue’s artistic mastery shines in ‘Harmonie,’ a true paragon of his unique take on classic electronica. The track radiates a poetic flame, consuming and transforming all within its reach. Picture yourself riding a chocobo across the sandy expanses of North Corel while this composition echoes in the distance. It paints a vivid scene for Final Fantasy VII aficionados.

The album embraces a rich variety of musical hues and subtleties. From the brass-heavy coastal jazz influences in 'Schattenschranz', to the chopped-up, trip-hop-adjacent electronics in 'Inside', Rampue demonstrates his ability to shape-shift across genres. Other tracks like the joyously chaotic 'Tripomatic', and 'Ich hasse Sonne', with its cinematic flair, contribute to the diverse soundscape.

The album’s eponymous track, 'Bubblebath Trance', is a piece both exuberant and deeply moving. It could well serve as the album’s centerpiece—a lucid dream of dancing shapes, colors, and sentiments to envelop your consciousness. It elegantly drifts from a liminal state of awareness into the rapids of one's inner turmoil, offering a mirror into the artist's inner world.

To round off this musical odyssey, the tranquil ambient tones of 'Die Leiden des hungrigen Fruehstuecks' seal the album with a stamp of affirmation. 'Bubblebath Trance' emerges as a rare class of albums—one that creates its own lexicon apart from the usual norms and expectations. It educates the listener with its new language, weaving through their ears, challenging the boundaries between the real and unreal.

This album exists as an ethereal object, withholding its secrets even after countless listens and awe-inspiring moments. It's an ever-evolving musical enigma, with its meaning and interpretation left to the listener's perception. It resists being confined to any singular definition, instead unfolding in real-time to the rhythm of the listener's heart and mind. The release date is set for August 25, 2023, and is sure to be a milestone in Rampue's career and for A Tribe Called Kotori.
