[Ears 2 the ground] Selection

Three years in the making, Livity Sound alumni Azu Tiwaline and Forest Drive West combine their distinct but compatible styles into an EP of advanced, reduced soundsystem immersion. 

The idea for the collaboration took shape not long after Tiwaline’s first Livity release, the Magnetic Service EP, and the pair took time to settle on a sound set which now shapes out Fluids In Motion. Drawing on a cohesive palette, the tracks they pieced together in a remote exchange between Tunisia and the UK explored a variety of tempos and rhythms ranging from pure ambience through to spring-loaded 4/4, with a focus on minimalism and dub-spirited spatial sound design. 

The end result naturally evolves from each artist’s existing work, matching subtlety and space with intricate detail to present a complete, considered release that runs as deep as an album over the course of four tracks.

Back in the fall I was asked to create a track using samples from a new sound library created from recording sessions within the Rubber Tracks studio in Brooklyn, NY. Had some fun with the horn samps!

Paris-based DJ @joanna-oj is known for her eclectic style, blending glitchy ambient, frenetic bass, sexy footwork, and chaotic techno, creating a deep, immersive journey. The @retreatradio resident takes a darker turn in this mix, guiding listeners through shadowy, hypnotic rhythms and cerebral basslines.

We’re thrilled to introduce Kinesis from Melbourne, a new label from Zara that celebrates timeless soundscapes and diverse artistry. The debut release, Kinesiverse VA, arrives on December 10th in digital format.

Kinesis is rooted in a thoughtful appreciation of sound, spotlighting the work of female, non-binary, and gender non-conforming artists. This first release takes listeners on an intricate journey through calming, intimate compositions, blending traditional and sci-fi elements while weaving time loops that transport you between cultures and eras.

The track O28, a collaboration between Zara and Tadhg, exemplifies this ethos. It evolves with elegant patience, gently building into a reflective soundscape where boundaries dissolve. The flute draws you in with its warmth, while electronic layers evolve with grace and precision. The result? A deep sense of calm.

We can’t wait to hear more from Kinesis, a label where music flows freely across time and space. Enjoy the space it takes you to.

PREMIERE: Zara And Tadhg - O28 [Kinesis Recordings]

Benedikt Frey makes his debut on Rhythmic Culture Records with ‘Hoover’. The German producer–known for his previous work on labels such as ESP Institute, Hivern Discs and his own R.i.O. imprint–delivers a 4-track EP that is a journey through the breakbeat spectrum with a distinct focus on sonic experimentation. From the hypnotic dynamic in ‘Blue Lights’ complimented by the vocals of DALO, to the intriguing dance floor rhythms in ‘Henry’ and ‘Deadlines’ and downtempo mesmerising track ‘Trees’, ‘Hoover’ puts another side of Frey’s work in the limelight.

A gorgeous unearthing from two top end friends rooted in collaboration and experimentation comes Pod; Peace of Dream. The duo present the shimmering single “Past” for a special digital Step Ball Chain release; two alternative versions for your pleasure, both downtempo dreamscapes recorded on Larrakia Country. Prominent underground Australian artists in their own right, Hamish Rahn and Emma Stevenson delve into exquisite pop with emotive and raw beauty, a lucid state of mind. A bonus blissed out drum and bass rendition of Past rounds out the release from none other than SBC alumni Maara.

On and on the loop remains,
I sit back and watch the day.
Up and down we oscillate,
Who is here with me today?

I see no one around to hold responsible, what am I sorry for?
I see you now abound, it isn't logical, when I write you a song I'm found.

Past is not the past.

Peace Of Dream - Past (DIGISTEP2)

Milan-based Piezo (@piezopz) sits at the heart of the current club sounds. He has long had an obsession with sound system music and that defines what he does today: mutant and beguiling club tracks with meticulous sound design and thrilling energy, heavy low ends and a real dose of UK influence from d&b to garage, grime and techno. He kicked off the year by dropping his genre-busting Ecstatic Nostalgia EP on our Dekmantel-UFO sub-label and now returns with a podcast that is just as fresh.

It's a futuristic mix of bleeping machines and lurching rhythms with bright synth designs and deep space ambience. Over the course of 90 minutes, the pace picks up and you're whisked along a variety of rhythms from broken to dubby, head spinning to minimal. It feels utterly spontaneous but is also a fully coherent mix from this restless innovator.

Where Do I Go?

2hours of explorations recorded in the barn of Dañs an Diaoul festival, in Brittany FR
(Friday 6 June 2025)

Live at Dañs an Diaoul

Jacques Satre is one of those rare artists we can truly call a mindchanger — a taste shaper whose work changes the way we listen. Electric Shapes has always had a strong connection with the French scene, and Jacques perfectly embodies its forward-thinking spirit.

From his La Marais release to the remarkable music he’s shared on Worst Records, Jacques has consistently delivered sounds that astonish and inspire. His artistry first crossed paths with Electric Shapes through La Marais, an album that blew our minds from the first listen. Naturally, we invited him for a podcast — as we often do with artists who inspire us — and his openness, vision, and thoughtful perspective only deepened our respect for his work.

Most recently, Jacques unveiled a transcendent and spiritual album on Éditentités, roaming the psychedelic landscapes of dance music with the patience of a craftsman and the soul of a storyteller — blending acoustic instruments, precise production, and a borderless musical vision. 

It was a huge honor for us to invite Jacques to be part of our very first vinyl release. Without hesitation, he agreed and delivered a killer remix of Kalocain’s Genetic Memory, setting a powerful tone for what was to come.

Later, he joined the 5th edition of Unreleased Territory and now, with no doubt in our minds, we are adding him to this special edition of Unreleased Territory. Combining his masterful production with his easy-going communication and open-minded artistic approach, every collaboration with Jacques is an unforgettable journey.

Now I'm Alive

Bipolar Nature offers a trip aboard the intergalactic whirlitzer; a saturated dream of space dolphins leaping through shimmering rings of stars; a floating vision of gentle undulating eternity, waves of light and magic easing past your pineal gland, readying you for the eventual shuffle of the ceremonial beat. It's music for moon children and bright eyed dreamers and it's making this dour Wednesday afternoon seem more like an endless sunlit Sunday, for which alone , Ishi Vu, we salute you.
Bipolar Nature is the closing track from Green is the Color of Love, Ishi Vu's debut EP for the Stolkholm based Omena label - it's released on record on November 30th, and you can keep track of Omeni over here.
