Repsyched EP - (Previews)

SUB_tl 081
Rude Solo
Exercises Vol.3

RELEASE DATE 20/11/2023

The infamous duo comprising label co-owner Hd Substance and scfi master A4 collide again in the studio for the third installment of their renowned exercises series. Previously released on this very label and on Inguma Records.

For this EP they want to be aside of the current fast paced trends creating five exercises of ambient, breaks, acid and the compulsory bleep portion.

Release starts with Exercise Nine, crunchy hi frequency noises, wavetable dreamy pads made on a rusty old Korg Wavestation and some spoken word action by an old scientist explaining how waveforms behave sampled from Youtube.

Second cut is the bleepy Exercise Ten, abstract asymmetrical sequences, 808 raw rhythms and a minimal approach in an ode to hyperspace. On Exercise Eleven, the 808 is starring again with a broken groove setting the pace for a Korg ms 20 sequence galore and white noise twisted live during the recording. The spoken word comes from the first cut as well as the Wavestation pads.

Exercise Twelve goes straight to the dancefloor bringing the System 55 modular system on the sequenced lines plus the odd 909/808 combo again on virtual drumming duties.

Closing the release Exercise Thirteen return to broken rhythms and Fm metallic hits plus some tb 303 blurbs to add the citric element to the equation.

With thirteen tracks already released the duo is working on a live set together that will see the light somewhen in 2024 if planet earth is still alive.

All tracks written and produced by Hd Substance & A4

Lefrenk
Obscure EP
SUB_tl 082

OUT 29/12/2023

Lefrenk is one of the hidden treasures in the Spanish electronic scene, hailing from A Coruña in the far north west of the peninsula he is a true expert in any sound producing tool. His discography is diverse and eclectic and for us he delivers his most techno side.

This Obscure EP comprises four cuts of advanced dance music starting with Jardín, a busy exercise made of multiple sound layers fighting over a relentless groove. A true floor burner. Second cut is the one naming the Ep, Obscure transmits tension and urgency to the dancer with expertly crafted sound design and synthesis, dynamic and constantly evolving, an ode to the groove.

Sot opens the virtual B side, slowing down the pace and exploring the spacey side of techno. A perfect soundtrack for a voyage into the unknown realms of hyperspace.

Last but not least, Wigbit introduces metallic vibes and a proper amount of distortion, reminding the best moment of the early Birmingham sound.

Four varied and exquisitely made tools for the advanced dancefloors out there. A pure pleasure to have such a talent onboard.

SUB_tl 082_Lefrenk_Obscure EP

One of my all-time favourite rave records!

I used to love playing the original at Tin Pan Alley in the 90s. The hook is one of the most memorable from that genre - I didn't want to change the vibe too much. I recreated the parts, used the Rave Generator plugin for the stab and beefed up the BPM/ low-end for today's dancefloors.

Thanks to http://Fadr.com and their AI model that rescued the vocal stem from a track that's over 30 years old! 
Also thanks to Renaat from R&S who gave me permission to put this edit up for the new generations to enjoy. 

(And a big thank you to Antonin from Southsoniks for making the master!)

Actress is the second album from @Hd-Substance for our label and the sequel of the previous Actors album released previously on the label.

The inspiration comes from classic cinema actresses, their classy look, their inner beauty and translating that classic feel to classic methods of electronic music creation and genres.

All music was made using only hardware tools with no computers involved, analog synthesizers, old drum machines, cheap FX units and hardware step sequencers.

Everything was mixed on an old analog console and recorded straight into a vintage tape recorder, preserving the production methods from the eighties and nineties of the past century.

Using his studio as a whole musical instrument, Hd Substance delivers eight cuts ranging from electro to techno, using his weapons skillfully, emphasizing on sound design only using his own made sound palette.

Roland Tr 808, Roland Tr 909, Behringer Rd 6

OUT 23/02/2024


Two of our main artists join forces in this exquisite electronic project called Infinitelag, Lagware and Infinite Size combine their music creation tools and skills to give birth to this Tour de Force where abstract textures and rhythmic pulses collide in a curious sound voyage in the realms of the unknown.

Crazy resampling techniques, weird modular landscapes, complex rhythm programming and gray area sound design define the sound of the project.

But all this complexity also works in a club environment, bringing industrial feelings to the presumably comfortable listener.
Breaks, distortion, abstraction, aggression and mentalism all in one in one of the most rugged works we have released so far. Welcome to the Infinitelag world.

SUB_tl 083_Infinitelag_Holographic Echoes EP

Tema de adelanto de nuestro próximo EP del mismo nombre, "Autoestopista" nos adentra en ambientes que van del shoegaze más nebuloso y melancólico al sónicamente más incisivo, con una estructura que va creciendo a cada segundo. 

"Recorro el camino me encuentro mejor".

Autoestopista

No encuentro las palabras que definan tu nombre
No me quiero maltratar no existe otra explicación
Me miras fija y asientes ya lo ves, esto es lo que es
Es como una canción de Nine Inch Nails, That's What I Get

Y cada mitad
Se derrumba sin piedad
Anhelo el perdón
Esperando lo peor

Insuflados de emociones salimos anoche
Buscando una víctima que suponga la excitación
Tu relación no es casual con el sexo banal
Quiero pensar
Te mueves hacia terrenos de mujer fatal
Basta de hablar

Y cada mitad
Se derrumba sin piedad
Anhelo el perdón
Esperando lo peor

Espero sentirme mejor
Si mañana despierto y te has ido al infierno al final
Deseos que nunca se cumplen lo harán
Esta de vez de verdad y sin temor

Tu acoso y derribo tu vulgaridad
Son la esencia de tu identidad
Magnolia de barro te vas a estrellar
La reina de lo absurdo ¡espera!

Que habita este mundo ríes en lo profundo

Exit 33 (free download)
