Serbian-born DJ/Producer Lag was globe trotting from Los Angeles to Berlin, with his last pre-Covid gig at Berghain a little over a year ago. Meanwhile in quarantine, apart from discovering his newfound talent in hand modeling (as he alleges), Lag contributes to the interconnectedness of our global techno community by hosting a weekly Twitch show on his channel, CommissarLag, where he gives feedback to producers on their submitted tracks. (Simply send your tunes to: solumun.epic.set@gmail.com). 

Lag has a versatile, wide ranging warehouse sound that we love. His latest release, “Katran” (“tar” in Serbian), is a hefty dance track with a no-BS breakbeat attitude, elements of grunge, and a dirty bassline. Heavy claps set with delay give this track a sweaty feel. This nine-minute journey is filled with head-banging, punk energy whose rebounds can barely be contained. Low-frequency sounds resembling motorcycle revs haunt the track with intense drive. 

Prior to the pandemic Lag was preparing for his third US tour. Missing his sets almost as much as his jokes, Dirty Epic looks forward to welcoming Lag back to the LA underground.

Premiere: Lag - Katran (Extended Edit)

Pulso makes his debut on Float Records with the brilliant spacey 5 tracker EP Vhudu. Vhudu, the opening track, contains an ongoing reverberated groove completed by subtle pads. Strike Mission, the second track continues the minimalistic approach by Pulse with deep space bleeps and a sliding synth. The Decline, the 3rd track, opens up with shifting hats, bleeps and an up and downwards going alarm system. Flammin Passion, the fourth one in line, is based on a percussive sequence, cheeky delays and a minimalistic bass. The closing track Dash Back is a message from outer Space.  Reverberated elements and a white noise morse code. Some gentle bleep complete the track.

Pulso - Vhudu EP [FLOAT051] (previews)

Since her first appearance in early 2020, as one half of Modern Doom, and the split EP „Final Conspiracy“, TESST has been a authentic resident for the label. With ‚Lost Passenger‘ she expands her portfolio with a first distinct EP.

Immediate tension is present in the opening track „Close-up“ - a refined combination of firmness, energetic drum programming and determined synthesizer patterns.

Equally energetic, „Passenger“ continues with more atmospheric and timeless sci-fi components. An instant lead-synth hypnosis, driven by a dungeon-esque 909.

„Lost Section“ maintains the high energy, heating up senses with contemporary intensity, mind-bending story telling and gut-kicking punch.

With „Possible Void“ TESST’s deeper nature reveals a beautiful and cosmic universe. Seductive space-synths ensure a voyage into uncharted dimensions.

Release Date:		7. May 2021
Track List:			1. Close-up
					2. Passenger
					3. Lost Section
					4. Possible Void

GTG Premiere | i decided - The Snake Swallows Itself [HLCT002]

47.3, the new EP by turan., is a scientific exploration of sound as a vehicle for sensory transport. Through a precise alchemy of hypnotic textures, gentle pulses, and spatial resonances, the Turkish artist crafts an auditory landscape where every frequency feels calculated to alter the perception of time and space.
Its lounge-like elegance and cosmic magnetism invite you to close your eyes and let the journey unfold on its own, because here, it’s not about wanting to move, but about surrendering until you are teleported.
With immaculate production, 47.3 is a sonic logbook for those who seek in music not only auditory pleasure, but also a portal to other dimensions.

Tracklist:

01 turan. - Faz.
03 turan. - Xone 142
05 turan. - Zaman

Artist: turan.
EP Title: 47.3
Label: The Acid Mind Recordings
Format: Digital
Genre: Electronic
Style: Raw / Hypnotic

"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. "

* Lost In Ether 
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".
