Phase Group continue their exploration of the fringes of contemporary electronic music with a release that brings together two separate projects born from analogue hardware improvisations.

‘A Given Moment’ presents the dub-laden, mind-bending and noise-driven music of Brussels-based artist and Vastechoses label head Lostsoundbytes, and the lo-fi, early morning lysergic experiments of Lowspace, an unearthed, forgotten collaborative project by French DJ and musician Low Bat and Dresden-based producer Heninspace.

This is music that takes you deeper into the vortex, made for dark and smoke-enveloped clubs and cosmic day-break afterparty moments. On the A-side, Lostsoundbytes continues his prolific output of masterfully crafted bass-heavy and dub-wise analogue machine jams, while the B-side presents two lost psychotropic experimental recordings by Lowspace made in 2018 upon a visit by Low Bat to Heninspace’s Dresden studio.

Tracklist: 

A1. Lostsoundbytes - In 1000 Years
A2. Lostsoundbytes - Fou De Croire
A3. Lostsoundbytes - Brain's Rewind 
B1. Lowspace - Sonntag Gibt Milchkaffee
B2. Lowspace - Dance For The Underwear Hour

For its second release of the year, Veyl welcomes composer, producer and visual artist Laggard to the label with new EP, 'Permanent Daylight'. Constructed from sonics that resemble, either literally or figuratively, the unpredictable and unmanageable creaks, cracks and groans of nature at its most volatile, the release consists of five original compositions guided by an implicit narrative: an unknown, cataclysmic event befalls an Antarctic research station. As a project, Laggard is a space in which the artist owns his restlessness and allows for a continuous evolution of sound and space, deploying the tropes of experimental live music and bass music against one another.

Inspired equally by the genre-less excursions of Godspeed!, Liturgy and Coil as the sub-heavy deconstructions of Ben Frost, The Haxan Cloak and Mumdance, we also find traces of Ed Rush and the performatively mutant aspects of early grime instrumentals. While also performing as co-frontman of acclaimed four-piece band, Folly Group (So Young/Communion, Ninja Tune), Laggard operates in a different space, finding the overlap between these areas in terms of mood, when “mood” is considered neither an emotional colouration nor decoration upon a structure, but the structure itself. The result is a powerful EP of electronics which is defined by its breadth but bound by one distinct palette, one hyper-specific vision.

A truly immersive experience, 'Permanent Daylight' plunges the listener into the unknown realms deep beneath the surface. A place where soil meets rock meets the unknown, articulating the violent shifts of the earth that is deeper than the earth. Laggard explains: 

As I finished Permanent Daylight, I found that referring to a loose narrative helped guide me through the maze of perfectionist indecision. This story isn’t supposed to be remotely explicit, and I hope listeners draw their own conclusions about the events and their chronology. Implicitly, Permanent Daylight documents some cataclysmic event occurring at an Antarctic research station. I used Unity to create an interactive accompaniment that documents its aftermath. My aims were to embellish the world-building whilst providing a fun opportunity to subvert the linearity of the EP format and allow listeners to experience the release in whatever order they like, in a thematically consistent space. I couldn’t shake the notion that this music had to sound “tectonic”.

Serving as a conceptual knot to bind multiple inspirations and narrative threads, the interactive project depicts a liminal Antarctic desert, devoid of life, where meaning can only be uncovered by contact with symbolic monoliths, each representing and becoming one of the EP's tracks when touched.

5 multi-genre pieces, written and produced by helleroid in the last couple of years. as usual she goes hard on psychodynamics and sound design while blending genres, surfing subwavaves, multiplying rhythms, textures, mixing live instruments, machines, field recordings, having an intimate conversation in space and time.

in this story helleroid experiments with mixing genres, breaking rhythms, sub waves, multiplying abstract textures, vocal pieces and takes the listeners into transformative journey from the darkest depths to the brightest heights of sound, questioning reality, looking for clarity, craving freedom, creating her own escape room to reconnect with the source.

Thank you very much for always paying attention to my track and taking the time to do so.  
I am always grateful.Forgiveness. 
The forgiveness of sins. People do not forgive others' sins! But if you dwell on it, you will be destroyed. See people with a broad perspective!
Your embracing love erases sin.

Sebastian Mullaert and Kontra-Musik have been involved in a love affair for quite some time – an affair that even resulted in an offspring called The Dance that came out on Kontra-Musik last year. Sebastian Mullaert is of course first of all known as half of Minilogue, a duo so influential in the hypnotic field of techno that Korg recently named a synthesizer after them. Lately, Sebastian has focused on his solo path under the Wa Wu We moniker, releasing stripped back and personal music on his own Wa Wu We label, the cryptic S.E.L.F label and now on Kontra-Musik.

On the title track Travellers, Sebastian Mullaert uses a straight up techno formula that may surprise listeners who haven’t followed his move into Wa Wu We territory. You almost get the impression Sebastian buried a recording destined for a rigid techno label in a deep forest back in the 90’s and has now decided to uncover it again, finding that the track has matured under the black soil. The sharp edges are now covered in smooth moss and the soundscape is immensely deep and moist. But it’s still a vibrant and very much effective track. Above all, it has loads of free space to let the listeners make up their own journeys as travellers into the world of sound created by Mullaert.

We float, on the flip side, is a beautiful and meditative ambient piece. It’s also the fastest way for the urban dweller to find him or herself floating in a serene lake surrounded by strong, green trees instead of floating in a sea of stress and anxiety. A set of headphones and this new release from Kontra-Musik and you’re there.

Liam Blackburn’s Ancestral Voices project is a nomadic journey of self discovery, exploring expansion of consciousness through sound. Since it’s inception in 2016 the project has traversed from transcendent ambient to jagged 170 bpm beat experiments over the course of 2 full length LP’s and 3 EP’s. In 2018 Liam launched his own label ‘The Fifth Kingdom’ with the entirely beatless release - Mycelia.

Liam returns to Horo to follow up his second LP ‘Divination’ for the label in 2017 with the next step in his musical evolution - Navagraha.

Navagraha means "nine celestial bodies" in Sanskrit. Each ‘Graha’ is a specific vibration and relates to the nine planets of our solar system, as well as the different parts of our body.

In 1978 Hans Cousto, a Swiss mathematician and musicologist discovered the natural law of the cosmic octave as the link between different kinds of periodically occurring natural phenomena, such as the orbit of the planets, the weather, colours, rhythms and tones.

For the Navagraha project​ ​Ancestral Voices has taken Hans Cousto’s ‘frequency’ of each planet and created a unique tuning system which he uses as the fundamental frequency for each track.

The result is a mixture of Ptolemaic, Pythagorean and other ‘Alternate’ Harmonic scales that can create a profound effect on the consciousness of the listener. Steering away from equal temperament opens up an infinite amount of possibilities and more ‘colours’ to paint the picture with.
