Nine years after the release of 'Stanza III', American musician Benoît Pioulard returns with 'Stanza IV' - the fourth and most expansive instalment in his long-evolving Stanza series. Pressed on splattered yellow pollen vinyl, it comprises four long-form ambient pieces that are deeply layered, hauntingly textured, and rich with emotion...Our pick from the album is the closing track, “Steeples Writhe.” Just over ten minutes in length, it unfurls with the ceremonial grace of a farewell. Built from degraded tape loops, decayed vocal fragments, and soft ambient hums, it avoids resolution—offering instead stillness, presence, and a sense of gentle release. It is, quite simply, a moment of peace.

Nameless Streets

This release is a journey, a weaving together of fleeting visions from parallel, yet intertwined sonic realms. It ventures boldly through a rich tapestry of sounds and textures, each track born not from rigid intention but from an unrelenting pursuit of the elusive, those shimmering, transient spaces in the soundscape, like the mysterious limbo of Vaalbara. The music unfolded live, forged in real-time with an arsenal of synthesizers. In these moments, delicate interactions gave way to sudden storms of chaotic experimentation, the machines pushed beyond their thresholds, revealing hidden voices at the edge of collapse. This album is more than a collection of tracks, it’s an open invitation. Step inside, and perhaps you’ll find yourself tapping into the same emotional landscapes that Ruben traversed while creating it: wonder, vulnerability, and the thrill of discovery in the unknown.

Premiere: Ruben Borgers - Vaalbara [Colectivo Casa Amarela]

for this week’s 909 podcast we welcome naarm/melbourne based dj & producer, al dente who serves up a delicious mix curated for home listening sessions. showcasing a slower, softer side to his collection, al dente was inspired to curate this mix by the setting that he enjoys listening to them the most in - cooking. still nodding to his signature spacey, chuggy and bubbly soundscapes, the mix comes with a minimal, techy edge. 

the 2024 release of al dente’s ‘the second cousin’ on animalia has become a firm favourite of mine - at least one track from the ep is always playlisted for sets. it’s a shining explain of what has drawn me to al dente’s sound over the past year, a contemporary take on a club-roller that’s super deep and futuristic whilst drawing from influences of early 2000s minimal. a dreamy combo! alongside that animalia release, al dente has released on the likes of pure space, beam, dmo, the space between us, and neurocrank - the latter being a platform & collective that al dente is a part of.

Ernestas Sadau Presents- Recent Music Arrivals - 9th August 2025

This episode of Kudos to Living Artists is a deep dive into the work of Chris Douglas. 
Selected and mixed by SDEM
--------
Chris Douglas – aka OST, Dalglish, Aclds, Rook, Seaes, Amhain.. one of the most enigmatic and emotionally arresting producer/composers working today, Brought up in San Francisco, Douglas came of age during the early days of rave, organising underground parties that helped shape the Bay Area’s burgeoning electronic music scene. In ’92 he moved to Detroit, where he made formative musical and ethical connections with Mike Banks and James Stinson.  Since relocating to Berlin in 2003, Douglas has immersed himself in his work, creating and releasing a massive body of uncompromising, reality-bending tracks that collapse the lines between rhythm and abstraction, pushing listeners into strange and often beautiful new territories... This mix celebrates Douglas as a vital presence, exploring the possibilities of electronic music as a deeply personal & transformative force. 
--------
SDEM: aka tom knapp – Born in Hull, north east England,, a painter turned Dj / Producer, working in electronic audio since the late 90s. As well as playing live and making releases for SKAM, Seagrave, Opal Tapes, CPU etc, Tom worked for meds and icasea, labels that  both released work by Chris. This mix is a personal listening selection, tracing deep cuts across a range of zones and aliases…

Kudos to Living Artists 10 – SDEM – Kudos to Chris Douglas

Opening track from my new album, Signals Aligned on Dusk Delay. 

Distribution worldwide by Rubadub.

Release date 08 Sept 2025.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Signals Aligned is Lord Of The Isles’s fifth album and his second contribution to his own Dusk Delay imprint.

Signals Aligned stands as a sonic testament to the intersection of science, spirituality, and the vast unknown. Inspired by pioneering theories on the nature of anomalous phenomena, viewing them not as extraterrestrial but as a complex, multidimensional enigma.

There’s a consistent theme of “discovery through distortion.” Truth is often obscured by layers of misinformation, disinformation, and misperception. The music plays with the concept of clarity and distortion, revealing hidden textures beneath shifting layers of sound.

The sound palette is vast and ethereal, incorporating elements of noise, shimmering synths, and organic textures. There’s a sense of both wonder and unease that mirrors theories on the strange and unexplainable.

Release date 12 Sept 2025
