BH 015 Ekman - GMMDI (Breaker 1 2 Rmx)

The experimental electronics duo These Hidden Hands return with a 12" Single featuring vocal contributions from Lucrecia Dalt and artwork by Jesse Draxler. An extrapolation of the the ideas explored on the debut album, this new single comprises of two cuts, leading the listener through abstract sonic terrain, drawn from the cavernous outer reach of intelligent sound design.

‘These Moments Dismantled’ a lesson of the vulnerability of musical space juxtaposed with dense apocalypticism.

‘Variant’ is reportedly a self-remix of the A side. Abrasive layering of complex textures that jerk between tension and release, where a heightened sense of drama seeps through from the frosty low-howl noir of Dalt’s vocals.

Despite this single constituting a completely independent work as an artistic collaboration between These Hidden Hands, Dalt and Draxler, we will see more from These Hidden Hands in 2016.

These Moments Dismantled

Taken from 'Struggle & Emerge'. Released 13/05/16

Following last year’s breakthrough album “Tundra”, Lakker return to R&S with a very special new project.
 
Lakker were commissioned by the RE:VIVE Initiative to create a new conceptual work solely sampling field recording, TV and radio broadcasts from the Dutch National AV archive, The Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. The curated material provided all related to and was representative of the theme the “Dutch and water”
 
The resulting 8 track release “Struggle and Emerge” is a tense soundtrack to the machine driven mid-20th century that captures the complex relationship between the Dutch and the water that surrounds them- unyielding, colossal, industrial. 
 
Broadcasts from the flood of 1953, which claimed over 1,800 lives and decimated the southern province of Zeeland are sampled in the gloomy “Open Clouds”. The contemplative “Broken Clouds” features a radio broadcast the day after the Nazis inundated the Wieringermeer Polder in 1945 in an act of desperation before retreating.
 
In order to combat the catastrophic power of the sea Dutch engineering has needed to go to equal extremes. On the album, the propulsive and dramatic “Reclamation” blaring “Ever Rising” and pummeling “Maeslantkering Gating” capture the sheer size, scale and power that is Dutch flood protection. Lakker gained inspiration from archival footage of the closing of the 32km Afsluitdijk, a man made barrier protecting the Netherlands from the vicious North Sea, a first hand visits to the futuristic engineering marvel, Maeslantkering and the never ending challenge of keeping the sea at bay. 
 
To gain insight into their topic, Lakker ventured on a tour around the Netherlands, meeting leading academic experts in the field. From the world’s premier flood defense department at TU Delft, to a professor of amphibious culture at the Free University of Amsterdam, to art historians and specialists on the ground; the duo were given first hand insight into the centuries long tumultuous relationship between the Dutch and the water.

Giant Swan are debuting on Mannequin Records through the Death of the Machines serie, the dancefloor/experimental oriented side of the label, dedicated to new artists.

Robin Stewart & Harry Wright team up to create an acerbic marriage of energised, aggressive dance music, quaking bass and hypnotic electronic noise. Across a table of machines and pedals, incorporating abused guitar and liberal vocal manipulation, Giant Swan create a cross-breed of hypnotic bass, industrial percussion and disorientating energy delivered with telepathic intricacy.
