#11 Fizzy Juice with Inara ft. Fragile X

We welcome Glaswegian producer @hellosulci to the label with the release of her debut, "Before The Echo".

The story of Sulci is an inspiring one. She was born with tinnitus and partially deaf meaning that she struggled to appreciate and experience music throughout her childhood in the early 2000's. Almost shutting music out of her life completely through frustration. As she reached her teens she began learning piano and guitar as a way of escapism and adapted a new concentration on how to immerse herself in sound. She also began recording acapella takes of her own voice on her iPhone and layering them together to make purely vocal soundscapes. Shortly thereafter she picked up Ableton software and started to make backing tracks and accompaniments for her multi range vocals.

This journey leads us to "Before The Echo".

It's an album rich in emotion and depth. Carefully pieced together to tell a story. It pulls together elements of ambient, electronica, garage, chamber pop, choral, sampledelia and funk. Quite the cocktail.

The result is a colourful and vibrant palette of sounds that immediately obtain a signature aesthetic for this fresh new producer. Stripped back and slowed down garage style beats intertwining with layered vocals alongside a mix of brooding soundscapes that are juxtaposed with some more uptempo numbers that come with an experimental pop edge.

There's a specific tone that makes intermittent appearances throughout at the start and close of a few tracks. They act as a reminder and recognition of her own struggles to reach a comfortable space in the world of audio.

We, for one, are glad that she has reached that destination.

Mathmatrix, also known in the past as BLN and Brazda lui Novac, is the moniker of Victor Popescu, from
Bucharest-Romania. The artist has been creating electronica/IDM music since 1997, although he didn't
officially release any music until 2010. Over the years, he has made notable appearances on radio shows
and TV in Romania, as well as alongside prestigious line-ups (Electronic Experimental Nights at Control
Club) and in live event performances, like Waha Festival this summer 2023.
In 2010, the artist made his debut with a self-titled album called "Brazda lui Novac" on Square Sound
Records. The next year, he released the album "Dizzy" under the alias “BLN” under Raumklang Music
Records label. Followed in 2013, by a self-released called “Moldern”, which included remixes by various
prestigious artists such as Plaid, Architect, and Roel Funcken. In 2018, still under BLN's alias and signed to
the Touched Music label, he released "Reworked Rewired Vol 1." This was followed by "Multiverse" in 2019.
However, in 2022, he changed the name of his project to "Mathmatrix" and released a new self-titled album.
Mathmatrix works appeared also in multiple various other releases, since the beginning of the label Touched
Music (UK), Neo Ouija (UK) and most recently EC Underground (US), including exclusivity with the remix
"Suave" from a forthcoming Heft project, and "Wet" from last year VA which gets musical flashbacks to Plaid
and Autechre. The artist is widely recognized for his ability to seamlessly blend classic IDM sounds and
arrangements in his work, incorporating edgier and more experimental elements such as grindy, glitchy, and
brasher sounds. The special combination creates a thrilling and energetic element in this new release.

Three and a half years after her debut album, "Ancestral Origins" was released, we welcome the return of Canadian sound sculptor and field recording specialist, Minimal Drone GRL, to Bricolage.

Her new album, "Through A Green Lens", follows further along the storytelling path that was introduced on her debut. This latest audio collage digs deeper into her journey and encapsulates the various places that she has inhabited throughout her life. There's references to the suburbs, cities and the countryside.

Travelling is also a big part of Joanne's life and the sights and sounds of the places she has visited have inspired a stirring whirlwind of affection and memories that are laid out here, among the soundscapes on offer.

When you combine the elements of home life and travelling the result is "Through A Green Lens". Joanne's life through her eyes.

This stunning sophomore album effortlessly weaves together facets of ambient, dream pop, vaporwave and electronica.

The MDG signature sound has always been expansive in nature and encompassing in emotion. "Through A Green Lens" continues that approach but with an evolution on the production side. Every sound has its place along the voyage and every new chapter of her story unfolds like a conversation with an old friend around a campfire.

Warm, rich and brimming with life, this is the perfect album to take you away to another place for an hour. Wherever that place may be.
