Micron Audio embodies a hub for a modern and futuristic electro sound, led by DJ Stingray 313. The imprint beckons intense electronic sounds, roughened textures and geometries that speak to aguiding principle of making technological advancement accessible to the people. These technoid adventures of sci-fi sound design and arrays of unabating rhythm, draw its listeners through warped microworlds and wicked contortions. Behind the sounds, it exists as a display of artistic responsibility, making statements and providing solutions from socio-political commentaries. 

The first Micron Audio physical release emerged in 2011, with DJ Stingray 313’s Electronic Countermeasures EP, following a digital-only compilation that is no longer available. Tracks from the Micron Audio hemisphere have featured in several compilation records released by the likes of Rush Hour and Creme Organization, including Stringray’s Urban Tribe project. It represents a crisply defiant and firmly electronic approach, drawing in the infective indicators of video games. Relaunching afresh in 2021, Micron Audio is working with new artists and is stepping not only further into the future but into the foreground, where its clear scientific intention and political attitude is entrenched through top-shelf sound design and pumping rhythms.

Fase Bipolar - Deeply Broken (Paleman Remix)

Slinky, a new album from The Fear Ratio, the collaborative project of Mark Broom and James Ruskin, is forthcoming on Tresor Records. In their first outing since They Can't Be Saved, released on Skam in 2020, they enlist British rapper King Kashmere, who features on two tracks. Where James Ruskin has appeared on Tresor Records for his seminal albums Point 2, Into Submission, The Dash and his recent Siklikal EP, the only appearance of Mark Broom on the label is a 2002 remix of The Golden Apple by Eddie "Flashin" Fowlkes. The duo unveiled this new work and collaboration with King Kashmere in a live show for a 30th Anniversary event for Tresor Berlin televised on Arte, performing amidst a battery of lights and fogged-up refraction. It demonstrated their rough-hewn fundamentals, roving melodies and investigative power, newly advanced by voice. 

Death Switch is the first appearance by King Kashmere, savaging questions on segregation and suffering, encoding into our brains the much-repeated refrain - "You wanna know, why they wanna flip the death switch". Spinning Globe captures Kashmere in a gritty flow over a swaggering beat, bouncing and resonant. This unsanded voice lends an enhanced texture and tension to the highly-processed sonic palette of Broom and Ruskin, accumulating with innate mettle.

Elsewhere, Appi dredges depths as widescreen beats lurk, digital artefacts pave the way to a hauntingly melancholic coda. Lacovset features singer Ella Fleur who has worked with Mark Broom on his solo release F&uuml;nfzig. It enacts a pointillist gated vocal alongside dolphin-like percussive communications. On LFIVE, the duo embalms their sonic textures with digital effects that flutter austerely with syncopation in the crosswind of a beat that recalibrates at points. An urgency slowly draws in on title track Slinky through fizzing electronics and fractured drums all corroded. Effem locates a semblance of euphoria, with a trance-inducing release led by swirling arpeggios. Closer KZAP finds the calmest moment on the record, with its wafting, nebulous synths and swamped hip hop beat. 

Slinky finds an ever-evolving project, The Fear Ratio shapeshifting by bringing in the voice into their work and continually pushing with their incredibly-effected rhythmic styles and peculiar, wandering synthesis.

PREMIERE: E.R.P. - Myrtle

In a world increasingly under the sway of algorithms and with the advent of AI, potentially signaling an epochal moment as important as the Industrial Revolution, Micron Audio releases the next in its series of forward-thinking electronic music: BOTS by Belgium’s 6SISS.

Much as early electro was driven by the twin influence of the rhythm of the factories of Detroit and a bold imagining of life beyond (or below) our world, BOTS takes its cues from the ideas and concepts surrounding our potential near-future such as Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing. 

At times the music swirls with sounds that bring to mind nascent intelligence slowly working out its purpose, albeit an intelligence alien to that found in animals. 
In other moments the rhythm shudders and shakes like the microsecond “thoughts” of an AI slowed down infinitesimally, overlaid with speech manipulated into sounds completely unrecognizable yet strangely familiar, like listening in to a conversation between two programs.
Released on 12” record and, more fittingly, digital, BOTS returns electro to its roots in envisioning the future whilst freeing itself from the paradigm of the genre’s past to create a soundtrack of the AI world; a view beyond the algorithm.

We are pleased to introduce a track "Formula" by Mathmatrix from LP "Fractal Harmonies".

Mathmatrix, also known in the past as BLN and Brazda lui Novac, is the moniker of Victor Popescu, from Bucharest-Romania. The artist has been creating electronica/IDM music since 1997, although he didn't officially release any music until 2010. Over the years, he has made notable appearances on radio shows and TV in Romania, as well as alongside prestigious line-ups (Electronic Experimental Nights at Control Club) and in live event performances, like Waha Festival this summer 2023.

In 2010, the artist made his debut with a self-titled album called "Brazda lui Novac" on Square Sound Records. The next year, he released the album "Dizzy" under the alias “BLN” under Raumklang Music Records label. Followed in 2013, by a self-released called “Moldern”, which included remixes by various prestigious artists such as Plaid, Architect, and Roel Funcken. In 2018, still under BLN's alias and signed to the Touched Music label, he released "Reworked Rewired Vol 1." This was followed by "Multiverse" in 2019. However, in 2022, he changed the name of his project to "Mathmatrix" and released a new self-titled album.

Mathmatrix works appeared also in multiple various other releases, since the beginning of the label Touched Music (UK), Neo Ouija (UK) and most recently EC Underground (US), including exclusivity with the remix "Suave" from a forthcoming Heft project, and "Wet" from last year VA which gets musical flashbacks to Plaid and Autechre. The artist is widely recognized for his ability to seamlessly blend classic IDM sounds and arrangements in his work, incorporating edgier and more experimental elements such as grindy, glitchy, and brasher sounds. The special combination creates a thrilling and energetic element in this new release.
