cycle0.2 - Sun Genam // Medlock & Philip Kylberg

Release Date: April 15, 2025 Format: Double 12'' & Digital

Beyond the Bridge proudly presents the latest EP from Dutch sonic architect Spekki Webu, titled "Neural Network," set to release on April 15, 2025. As the founder of Mirror Zone, Webu masterfully conjures a spectral world where time collapses and frequencies bend, inviting listeners on a mind-expanding journey through sound. His ritualistic compositions transcend conventional boundaries, merging past, present, and future into a singular, fluid moment.
The eight-track EP delves into an abstract landscape of high-intensity frequencies and textural flux. Webu’s sonic manipulations challenge linearity, evoking cyclical movements that oscillate between chaos and order. Each track serves as a kinetic force, pulsating with raw energy and enveloping the listener in immersive sonic architecture. The release also features two transformative remixes from Beyond the Bridge label head K.O.P. 32 and acclaimed producer Feral, each expanding the boundaries of interpretation into new dimensions.

@radiationpattern @materica-records

BUY: https://radiationpattern.bandcamp.com/album/subtle-lines

Subtle Lines, Radiation Pattern's debut album, is a deep and personal exploration between structure and spontaneity, form and dissolution, control and resistance. 

Drawing from his early engagement with harder techno, he distills raw intensity while interplaying with humming drones and hidden melodies.

Opening with the ethereal Purifica, the album transitions into the title track’s geometric rhythms, navigating between ambient elements and the relentless energy of club culture. 

Some tracks, like EVO and Summoning, directly express the electronic music communities that have shaped Simone’s experiences—spaces of connection, defiance, and transformation that  pulse with the tensions of capitalism, hope, and revolution that his musical journey embodies.

BUY: https://decadanceamsterdam.bandcamp.com/album/rizoma-granulare

Rizoma Granulare embodies the symbiotic relationship between electronic music and the intricate horizontal growth of rhizomes, resulting in a release that finds its roots in a subterranean sound realm, where granular textures and hypnotic rhythms intertwine through an intricate musical ecosystem. Listeners are invited to experience the interplay of stretched grain resolutions and primal bass syncopations pulsing from the depths of each artist's introspection. Flourishing organically, the music branches out in unpredictable directions.

𝒑𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Solma - Leaving The Aquarium [Decadance]

Release date: 31.03.25

 "A hypnotic tunnel in constant flux, shaped by granular-manipulated field recordings and brief percussive fragments that flicker along electrical impulses within a dense rhythmic grid. Layers of evolving textures breathe and mutate, expanding and contracting in an unpredictable motion."
