An awakening wrapped in light and stillness, where each pulse carries the essence of the beginning. The air feels untouched, fragile but divine, as creation hums softly beneath the surface. In that first breath, everything is both new and eternal.

In Ahab EP our storytellers Hülshoff and Rheinländer bring much more than just the typical songs. Drawing inspiration from different backgrounds, the duo bends traditional music genres into metaphor and storytelling through mystical melodies.

Among steadily added layers of sounds, the verses remain strictly instrumental with a diverse bass line, telling the story of our captain Ahab and his relentless pursuit of Moby Dick, the white whale that eventually ends his life. Steady on now, on the melodic sea, he never hesitates, on towards the rest of the story.

Melodic "pings" ring out like incessant memories in the mind of Captain Ahab, distracting his thought processes and interrupting his ability to function. The further development of the darker tones on this EP, calls us to imagine in more detail the terrific power of the beast over the man and become much more assimilated with the captain's obsession and the preoccupation of his mind.

Following him like his crew on the sea, industry colleagues are provided with excellent original material to work with. Alex Kaminski along with Metatext and Karhua, act as his crew on this EP, looking toward the captain of the ship, following him on this oceanic journey. In metaphor for the duo's talent and ability to influence and persuade with their music, they lead his loyal crew on a wild frenzy to conquer the nemesis, despite the warnings, and to his own deluded end.

He who is contented is rich.

The pearl-coated infinity of music, transforms a diseased vehicle into a working one, that now endows music with new form, with reinvigorated substance, with a fresh flow of ideas, and splendidly revitalized colors.

Gottlieb Scheppert proves the words above, by having complied METANOI043, called "Maru", a thoughtful designed piece of art, including a collaboration with Chris Schwarzwälder, which makes the whole EP a functional-working vehicle.

We met Ari aka Arilu last summer during the Art of Loving at Mensch Meier. She played a beautiful b2b with Mente Organica and brought her parents along to the gig which was great to see. We kept in touch throughout the year and are happy that she is now contributing a track to Hug Records. To celebrate this we will gather at Klunkerkranich on 14.03, come by for a dance and a hug.

PREMIERE : Arilu - New Age Bells [Hug Records]

The newest addition to our catalogue comes from @gazel_musik, an up and coming duo from cologne.

With "The Red One", Julian and Lucas take us on a journey through their intricate soundscapes, while showing a clear focus on instrumentality; a masterful merging of electronic and more traditional instruments result in these three beautiful compositions.

"Warten auf Lotta" starts with a dreamy introduction to the EP, before catching us with a grooving bassline and a catchy guitar-riff, accompanied by organic percussion and high-resonance synthesis. The second original "Mono.noke" radiates a mesmerizing and hypnotic forest-like atmosphere, but still catches us with a bouncy swing. The title track "The Red One" rounds everything off with an otherworldly break, followed by a high-energy drop that makes us want to move our feet.

LOKD007 features a beautiful breakbeat-touch on "Warten auf Lotta" by our favorite Berlin-boyband @brigadeberlin, a saz-percussive interpretation of "Mono.noke" by @tpusemusic from Tel Aviv, and a guitar-heavy minimalistic Remix of "The Red One" by LOKD's very own @avemsdream.

gázel - Mono.noke (T-Puse Remix)

Straight in the fire I was waking up,
In silence, in the middle of the night,
The flames were black, without a single fight,
My broken soul was hold onto by your cup.

Your cup of tea with pebbles from my mind,
With scents about your skin and from the trees
It keeps me blind throwing away the keys
And set the route of not knowing what to find

With lack of vision it's reflection strikes
My veins are bent, their curves are like a dam
I don't know why, I don't know where I am
And time became a countering of spikes.

I'm staying in the rain without a clue
Remembering a story without me,
Your cup drowns trees and flavors without tea
Erasing an imaginary "two".

Cheekha Dar, meaning Black Tent, is the Kurdish name given to the highest mountain on the Iraqi/Iranian border. Its peak sits majestically in an area known for shaping the Earth's stories. The tracks on this EP combine sounds from this region, as well as Asia, delivering 2 versions of the title track for day time and night time adventures. The Day version is a sensual flow, perfect for your sunset. The Night version is not only faster but has intense violin parts, working great to light up the dance floor, as it has been tested since last years festival season. The track 'Be My Baby' is an emotional story using woodwind, guitar and vocal elements. Let the music speak for itself.
On remix duties Goro (Syria/Netherlands) and Holed Coin (Spain) could be gained. 2 dear friends from the artist with great qualities when it comes to music production and musical taste.

We may probably feel lost and alone during our journey; the condition seems difficult and heavy, we can fell stuck in a loop, but clouds will pass, sun will shine again and even during the dark moments the earth can enlighten us and share the way we are in a continuously transformation!
