IM095 - Infinite Machine 10 Years Compilation
Label: Infinite Machine
Release Date: December 3rd, 2021
Format: Digital

Celebrating 10 years of solidly cerebral club music releases, Infinite Machine is celebrating its first decade with an 19 -track compilation full of heat from label mainstays, new signees and some of the friends who helped them along the way. Infinite Machine was born out of a desire to run an dance imprint with the same DIY ethos as the hardcore/screamo labels that xWOLFx, IM's owner, was previously involved with. Over its decade-long lifespan, the label has rapidly evolved into a central figure within the hybrid dance music scene that’s formed on the internet; a place where dembow drum patterns can easily sit next to Sinogrime samples and dubstep sensibilities. In the last few years, as the label and it’s artists have matured, Infinite Machine’s output has taken a slightly cyberpunk turn, moving away from pure dance-floor slammers and towards more conceptual works which deal with our ultra-accelerated culture or soundtrack imagined off-planet worlds.

Some highlights from the release include Galtier’s ‘My Mess is a Face’, a real head-spinner full of granular synthesis and warped sample work. Later on in the comp, Bungalovv delivers a sensory delight with ‘Alacran’, a track so dense with layers of sound design it feels like you can sink your teeth into it. All Centre signee Duswunder pops up mid-way through the release with the frenetic and furious ‘Black Bile’ which is absolutely not a track to be missed. IDM upstart Daniel Ruane’s contribution ‘ZZZZZ’ is hypnotic perfection - one of those compositions that really has to be heard to be believed. Towards the end of the release, long-time Infinite Machine signee Yilan appears with ‘Cortisol’, another slow mind-bender of a track full of siren-like synths and rolling stutters of percussion. And rounding out proceedings is W3C’s ‘Templar’, a great example of the sort of forward-thinking music Infinite Machine loves to release. It’s a track rooted in club culture but, at the same time, transposed away from that context to some other-worldly space.

In an era of dance music consumption where genre trends or in-vogue labels can rapidly switch from flavour of the month to faint memories, this 10-year milestone is a testament to the independent label's unwavering enthusiasm for unearthing fresh talent and pushing our releases at a relentless pace, much like the hardcore labels xWOLFx previously ran. Three cheers for another decade of jaw dropping releases and Infinite Machine's commitment to the church of DIY.

Head honcho DJ Pitch returns to TT with his latest EP ‘Spiritual Claustrophobia’. Think covid fever dreams and an itch for club glory as the catalyst behind these existential wonderings in sound. Built from the bottom up with samplings of the recognisable alongside the ever evolving sounds from the warped world of DJ Pitch. Take a 4-track trip into a range of uncomfortably comforting beats. This EP does exactly what it says on the box and leaves you questioning: have you outgrown yourself?

Spiritual Claustrophobia

Fractured Collectivity

ICEFALL is a split single from Beatrix Weapons and Mente3000 where each provides a freezing cold remix of one of the other's tracks.

On Capsule Love, Mente3000 is joined by MODULE. Together they come up with an arctic headnodder riffing around a pounding kick and a joyful vocal sample. Refreshing like a snowball in the face.

Next, Beatrix Weapons flips 7774L1F3 with a creeping crawling bass and hyper hi-hats, building to a sequence of spontaneous avalanches.

"Misinput Tycoon’s 8 tracks sound like personal bursts of expression by the artist sculpted through artificial at times alien sounds that still sound very human." (Sonic Sundays) 

"This is an album full of intricately engineered, futuristic sound explorations." (Zenevloed) 

On Misinput Tycoon (GEN052), https://soundcloud.com/fausto_mercier returns to Genot Centre with an album full of intricately engineered, futuristic sound explorations. Quirky, syncopated, even grimy melodies emerge between sounds reminiscent of cinematic automatic sliding doors, plasma-filled light cannons and full-spectrum boot-up sounds. The approach is bio-mimetic, elastic, fizzy, accelerating and decelerating, like listening to a process of wringing out an artificial fabric, or rupturing ultra-light fibrous materials in incredible resolution. More than ever, this album is littered with colorful, even contemplative segments: having an orchestrated, playful feeling. But make no mistake: more than mere intermezzos, this only a further dimension of the album's depth, the bright timbres ready to interface with a stroboscopic, liquid, granular counterpoint at any time.

// Roland Nagy (https://soundcloud.com/fausto_mercier) about GEN052
“I’m constantly watching pixels since I was 5. This album reflects wasted time and digital traumas. MISINPUT TYCOON is a sequel of my FULLSCREEN album from 2019 (also on Genot) - a sonic playground that feels much safer to me compared to my previous works. Also, it's the first album I made without hearing „What would XY think about this track?” in my head. These are my hymns for healing from the digital core - hope it will help.”

// BIO
Roland Nagy (he/him) is a Hungarian sound engineer, ex-media arts student and producer. Ever since 2016 he has released music under https://soundcloud.com/fausto_mercier moniker on labels like on EXILES, Kaer‘Uiks, Pointless Geometry, Infinite Machine or Genot Centre. His work in the field of electronic music production, while resonating with hardcore digital culture and bouncy rhythmic heaviness, is closely connected to his fascination for natural soundscapes and their fractal nature. In particular, Nagy skillfully manages to depict a violent, tense world populated of minuscule yet grand sound variations, intertwined in a web of apparently chaotic textures. He was part of Shape Platform roster in 2020.

Fausto Mercier - unfast

‘Inflatable Gravestone’ is the debut album by Mun Sing (aka Giant Swan’s Harry Wright).

The motivating force of the album is the sudden loss of Harry’s father in 2020. His father struggled with substance addiction and the album explores ideas of 'spirituality' and the ‘higher self’ in relation to addiction and its parallels with the coping mechanisms of grief. It also aims to highlight the importance of humour and distraction when coping with loss.

Serving as a narrative for his own experiences, the album is largely built around club-centred tracks (such as ‘Spider’ and ’Squabble’) broken up by moments of yearning and reflection in tracks like ’The Poison Garden’ and ‘Helhest (Azrael Smirks)’ and moments of dark anguish like 'Inheritor' with its heavy slab-like chords and pensive piano. Flirting with awkward and suggestive rhythms, Wright deliberately suspends moments of resolution and groove in favour of drama and jerky, unexpected cartoonish humour, taking as much influence from the likes of the Art Of Noise as Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. 

Wright rewards the listener with moments of clarity and introspection like flags on the journey, recruiting vocalist MX World to deliver lyrics and melodic ideas created by him and his father. His father’s journals in rehab helped inform most of the lyrics. Some take whole sentences as a way to physically ‘give life’ to his words for the first time. The lyrics describe feelings, revelations and  apocalyptic hallucinations. MX World's clear, direct tone suggests folk music and the timelessness of the human condition.

The album concludes with the title track ‘Inflatable Gravestone’ which features a chorus of giddy manipulated laughter from Wright’s friends and family to a truly maddening effect. This is then resolved by bright and clear piano chords and the sound of Wright’s father breathing in his sleep. A deeply affecting and personal record with corkscrew twists and turns and a healthy dose of absurdism.
releases June 2, 2023

All tracks written and produced by Harry Wright. Lyrics by Harry Wright, except track 10 lyrics by Harry Wright and William Wright. Lead vocals by MX World. Additional vocals by Nashne, Akiko Haruna and Mouse.

After releasing an EP, "Angeltribe" on London label TT in 2020, and "Vorphic Skin" on Toothgrinder Press in 2023, Kat Nzingha's debut album "Grind" will be released on AngeltribeXTL in May of 2023. Based in Philadelphia, Kat Nzingha is a multidisciplinary artist that explores experimentations with abstruse textures. By combining their sculptural works with heavy low-end frequencies and celebratory tones they create blissfully cryptic sonic materials that are the extended bodies of modified objects of which they consistently fabricate. "Grind" conjures the spirit of the sculptural entity that is physically attached to Nzingha's body as seen on the album art. The sculpted spirit is manifested through the sonic form of convulsing kicks, metallic percussion, and hyper-processed textures. 

"It's finally time to release "Grind" after sitting on the album for two years. The end of 2020 was when I started to build...  more

About Sero

It is the music that specifically made for bastards to dance in the club by Mr.Peña and XOXO Miro from Switzerland. All of the wired melodies, funny records, sudden drums are saying “not taking it too serious”, let you not wail like a baby when you break everything due to an inexplicable fall. A humorous language, hidden in every sound from Sell to Horserider. So far, there is still no mystery in this EP, it simply provides us with all the functions that every dance music should have; of course, just for mature bastards.

这是瑞士制作人 Mr.Peña 和 XOXO Miro 专门为了让混蛋们在俱乐部跳舞而 制作的音乐。所有诡异的旋律、搞笑的录音与突然砸下的鼓点都是在跟你说: “放轻松。”，让你在因莫名其妙摔倒而把东西都摔坏时不会像个三岁小孩一样 哇哇大哭。一种幽默的语言，藏在从《Sell》到《Horserider》中的每一个声音 里。在这张 EP 中没有任何神秘之处，它只是简单直接地提供给我们舞曲应有 的全部功能，当然，只是对一个成熟的混蛋而言。
