Marcal is back for round two on Dustin Zahn’s Enemy Records with “Cyber Dystopia.” Marcal’s trademark grooves and clever vocal processing make this one of his most exciting and hypnotic records yet. It’s pure class…there isn’t much else to say!

BUT we have to try anyway…
“Cyber Dystopia” starts off with Bionic Jungle, a trippy peak time roller sprinkled with uh, lifeforms or something? We haven’t been able to identify them, which is just proof that Marcal is living on another planet we haven’t been to yet. We’re standing by for the invite.

Moravex’s Paradox picks up where Bionic Jungle left off…chugging along in his signature style. It’s loopy. It’s tooly…but still heavy on the grooves, making it a perfect fit in deep and peak time sets alike.

Nothing About the United States hits a little harder and darker. Dissonant drones and catchy sound design take over, flipping the switch from “party” to “punish.” For fans of his recent track on Enemy, “Never Wrote This.”

Don’t Fear the Three is a classic Marcal percussive workout in heads-down mode. It’s as equally powerful as every other track on the record.

“Cyber Dystopia” is all about the world we are living in right now: artificial intelligence, smart houses, smartphones, self-driving cars, deepfakes, fake news, cybernetic warfare, metaverse, social networks, the internet of things, machine learning, virtual reality...
We are definitely entering a new stage of civilization, the post-modern era.
But,
Are we living an 'apocalypse of self-abdication' already? Or we are, as humans, simply evolving as technology evolves? There will ever be a limit to technology? Will it help as much it can also destruct?

We will find out soon.

Releaseinformation:
As a thank you to our beloved community that showed us nothing but support and ap- preciation over the last year, Schimmer Records is releasing a compilation of 27 tracks by our residents and invited artists.

Just as we did last year, we want to use our reach to address the more serious issues the global community faces today and help the less fortunate. Especially the most vulnerable of us, children can suffer under the consequences of the action of others: Abuse, a lack of access to education and misplacement become rampant in times of war and conflict.

Thus, this year we feel the proceeds raised from our Christmas album, which is 15 Euro for the whole album, are best placed with “Save The Children“. After the release is funded 100% of our earnings will go towards the goal of helping children in need.

We wish you a very happy Christmas, a joyful time with the people dearest to you and a happy new year. See you in 2024!

We hope you like our compilation! Play it loud!

JXXXO - Tool 9 [Premiere I R028]

After the climate and political catastrophe that Valencia has endured, with a severe storm affecting over 800,000 people, the community has come together to lift the future of Valencia out of the mud. From day one, Gordo Trax has sought to help by bringing together producers of all kinds in a series of charity V.A. releases aimed at supporting local neighbourhood associations, animal welfare organisations, associations for people with special needs, and providing essential goods. "Germanor" is the Valencian word for "brotherhood," and in this second release, we unite international artists like Blawan & Wallis, Oscar Mulero, Lewis Fautzi, Nørbak, Peder Mannerfelt, Cora Novoa, and many others who have selflessly pitched in during such a difficult time for the city.

Decoys explore the ways that internal perception distorts and develops as it navigates the fluid boundaries of the self. The EP’s title invokes the distracting and alluring elements of an incomplete double—an illusion that, upon closer inspection, uncovers something perhaps even deeper than its originating source. The title track pairs driving rhythms with dark, rustling atmospheres and layers of competing bass punctured by the screech of unidentifiable machines to create a relentless forward momentum with no clear destination. “Imitation Body” layers found sound to assemble a beat that pushes and pulls with a distinct swing, anchored by ghost-like ambiance and an insistent low end. On “Fear Of Others,” paranoia and uncertainty channel into a chest-rattling dubstep excursion. As the track shifts between two distinct moods, the elements anchoring it mutate and shift. The EP closes with “Respite,” a breathy half-time closer accented by bursts of frenetic sound and warbling bass, as though the music itself is resisting disintegration.

No Sir - Decoys

GLIA presents Sticky Friends, an EP born from a turbulent time of personal tension, existential crisis, and creative intensity. Alongside remixes by Bailey Ibbs and Alberto Tolo, the release is a raw and introspective journey.

"Sticky Friends" captures the energy of a Watergate closing night spent with her closest friends. Driven by distorted synths, high energy, and an uplifting groove, the track builds through hypnotic vocal effects and gritty textures before breaking into a moment of clarity with glowing chords.

"Le Reste" is a stark contrast—a pure expression of pain following the collapse of her closest relationship. A haunting vocal sample of "sorry", a word she never received but always felt was hers, echoes through hypnotic, existential synths and a flowing melodic tempo, questioning reality in its wake.

Bailey Ibbs and Alberto Tolo reshape both tracks with their own intense and unique interpretations.

Parenthesis, the new EP from Rennes duo Cwtch, is a sensory immersion in an electronic universe rich in textures and organic rhythms. Comprising five tracks with distinct identities, this opus bears witness to a clear desire for sonic exploration and creative freedom. From the immersive deep techno of Gyoza to the mental bass of Unakite and Cerebral Dissonance, via the ambient IDM landscapes of Silent & Weightless, Parenthesis stands out as the duo's most accomplished and uninhibited work to date.

you're out at the bar / club drinking , you're having a great time. you spontaneously run into some old friends of yours. You guys are chatting it up and having a great time. You guys decide to step outside, you light up a camel, another friend lights up a Newport, and the other friend lights up a joint, it smells great. He asks you if you'd like a hit. Of course. You puff, puff, & pass, you guys are all having a great time, chatting it up, puff puff, pass, again, so on and so forth, eventually so forth you are faded. you start to feel almost sick but not quite there, you step onto the dance floor, time starts to slow down, you really don't feel that good. but nothing can stop you, you're back, time to dance
