Obtuse Swamp's second ecosystem "Hadal Biocenosis" is the result of two years of sonic exploration by Leipzig-based artist Kontinum. Moving from conventional techno to a more bass-oriented sound, he left his comfort zone and experimented with unusual grooves and textures for this release. The EP is rounded off by two remixes from french dub expert Són du Maquís and fellow Leipzig producer Esgeem.

DESCRIPTION

 "I remember making this during some freezing days between Christmas and New Year's. The main groove that started the whole track was initially generated by those little red lights that you normally put on your bike. I placed the lamp in front of a light sensor, which transforms the light into sound pulses. The lamp had a sequence of flashes that the sensor detected and the result was the main beat. I also remember experimenting with various AI tools to generate sound material, which I used as a starting point to modulate it."

Swamp Spirit

https://soundcloud.com/pannotia meticulously dissects a tight cocoon of steadily evolving synthesis across the five tracks of Cell, his latest outing with Eora’s https://soundcloud.com/purespacefm label. The EP channels microbiological processes throughout, interweaving linear progression with natural processes of growth and decomposition.

Premiere: Pannotia - Life Cycle [PS021]

No ascension without drag. No clarity without pressure. https://soundcloud.com/vanta_techno doesn’t smooth things over; he exposes the grain. On Between Life and Death, his first release for Munich’s https://soundcloud.com/iorecs, the Leipzig-based producer sculpts emotional tension into seven personal passages.

OW11 Raär - Incentive

The air shifts. Drawn from a live composition and distilled into eleven personal mantras, Raär's Incentive unfolds as a long-player sonic rite, tracing a path through a wind chamber. A narrative pulled into motion by a propulsive undercurrent.

The eleventh opus in Omen Wapta's lineage begins with flickers at the edge of vision. No clear path, just shapes that rise and vanish in the periphery. The air carries tension. Low hums lean into pressure. The ground rolls forward.

Trees bend inward. A summons breathes from below, hovering between clarity and wandering dust. The pace fractures. A space opens. Long enough to feel it pass: a shadow, a pulse, a question. Something inside has turned.

The chase tightens. Each element presses against the next. Inside the rhythm. Inside the self. Overtones shiver. The wind doesn't stop. It carries what remains. Sound, now memory. Movement, now shadow. Incentive carves deeper into Raär's terrain. Untethered, inward, and elemental. He sculpts in weight and pressure, low-end as bedrock. FX opens the ground between weight and light. Tape compression binds the vessel. Beneath, a drone exhales. Charged with trace.

Every track, a step. Each pause, a turn. Guided to feel, not to grasp.

OW11 Raär - Incentive [preview]

From the black murk of primordial swamps stepped the forebears of the first amphibians, creatures who would learn, under the steady rain of time’s hourglass, to evolve several times in the span of a single life, to breathe through their skin; permeable, changing. 

Prague’s Amphibian Records label and collective reveals Kobayashi Maru’s ‘Induction Texture’ EP. As with his recent collaboration with Silhouette, it’s a release of two halves: two original solo productions pin markers deep inside driving, psychoactive club territory; two reflections—from Abo Abo and A Strange Wedding—capture the light of the originals and cast it back, changed but familiar. 

PRE-ORDER IS OPEN NOW

https://soustraitance-sstr.bandcamp.com/album/catartsis-les-mati-res-errantes

Somewhere between memory sediment and subconscious drift, “Les matières errantes” marks the second solo expedition of the Sous Traitance timeline, this time led by Catarsis (aka Mathieu Bonnafous).

This new EP from the Parisian producer gathers four elusive productions, each one forged in a different temporal layer across a period of seven years. Oscillating between states, they reveal a raw urge to blur genre borders, where bass-heavy architectures bend into murky techno spirals, breakbeat fragments dissolve into dubstep low-frequency voids, and drum & bass pulses flirt with collapse. There’s no linear path here, only shifting zones and unstable rhythms, moving like tectonic plates beneath the surface of club logic.

A disjointed archive, a driftwork of forms—"Les matières errantes” doesn’t narrate a story so much as it exposes its own erosion. It’s a confrontation of industrial and natural environments for an unique, organic sound, making Catartsis a key figure in the renewal of the French Techno scene.

"Ether, or æther, was the mysterious substance once thought to suffuse the universe and be the medium that propagated light (and radio waves once they were discovered). Before that, it was the material that suffused the realm of the Gods. So, to say that something is in the ether means that it is something being communicated from place to place; it has no precise location, just as a radio broadcast can be heard from many different places. "

Here you can find personal visions and expressions of alternative electronic music represented by artists invited to show their own ways to explore sounds which are embraced into one wave of sound - podcast recorded for "Lost in Ether".
