The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Berlin-based artist ASEC. He is back on his self-titled imprint with five mesmerising techno cuts featuring remixes from PoleGroup’s Kwartz and Soma’s Temudo. ASEC delivers his driving and expansive electronic music vision, consisting of dark textures, idiosyncratic melodies and dynamic drum sounds. We premiere today "High Tool", a work that maneuverers between hypnotic atmospheres and dark, ominous textures balanced with ghostly pads and thudding percussion with emphatic frequencies.

Out May 14th on digital format & April 2nd on vinyl. Pick up the release now: https://asec.bandcamp.com/

Perceptual Geometries by Ambientes Kollektiv - Album

An exploration of the invisible architectures shaping perception, Perceptual Geometries maps the shifting relationship between sound, space, and the listener.

Across its movements, evolving atmospheres and pulsing undercurrents intersect with hypnotic tonal structures — forming patterns that seem to dissolve as soon as they’re recognised.

This is not music to simply hear, but to inhabit — a framework for altered states, where geometry becomes sensation and perception becomes form.

--

Perceptual Geometries unfolds as a continuous study of sound, space, and perception — a journey where each track acts as a chamber within a larger structure.

It begins in stillness with Resonant Axis and Inverted Symmetry, opening a meditative space where form and emotion hold in perfect balance. Gradually, shadows and tension emerge in Fractured Horizon and the dense, uncharted descent of Vector of Silence.

Midway, Ecliptic Drift marks an awakening — colour and movement flooding the architecture — before Vanishing Meridian offers transcendence and emotional release. Spectral Coordinates follows as a slow navigation toward uncharted worlds, leading to the quiet self-reflection of Topology of Memory.

The closing piece, Phase Architecture, expands outward into open air, suggesting that the geometry continues beyond the final tone — an unfinished map still resonating in the listener’s mind.

Perceptual Geometries is not background music; it is a framework for deep listening, where sonic form becomes sensation, and perception shapes its own architecture.

This sequence starts in stillness, dips into mystery and intensity, blooms into awakening, and ends in spacious release — a clear arc for both emotional and spatial listening.

—

Perceptual Geometries is a nine-part exploration of sound, space, and perception by Ambientes Kollektiv — moving from meditative stillness into shadowed intensity, radiant awakening, and peaceful release. Each track is a chamber within a larger structure, where form dissolves into sensation and listening becomes architecture.


A sonic framework in nine movements, Perceptual Geometries examines the shifting architectures of perception through evolving atmospheres, spatial tension, and emotional precision.

TF #174: @keepsakes [Haven, MORD] - Berlin

Guest words:

"This podcast is mainly made up of dance-floor focused bangers that I'm liking at the moment - it's a pretty good representation of how I play at the club with a mixture of dark/hard more industrial tracks with some moments of fun and euphoria in between. It starts off pretty dark and industrial, and then calms down and provides some brighter sounds in the middle, returning to the dark sounds at the end. I feel like it also shows the linkages between the different eras of techno - there is tracks from the 90s, from the early- to mid- 2000s and from today in there.

I'm always trying to tell more of a 'story' when I DJ and try to show off a diverse mixture of sounds - and how they relate to one another. Sticking to one style has always been incredibly boring for me - I hate seeing one-dimensional DJ sets and I also hate playing DJ sets in just one style. I think this mix, like all my mixes, reflects that desire for eclecticism in DJing. Really the DJs I look to for inspiration are more those crazy people that could play anything at any time in a set - people like Optimo when it comes to house music, or someone like Parrish Smith with harder sounds".

Lost In Ether | P R E M I E R E | Reeko - Dualidad 2 [Mental Disorder]

taken from: Reeko - Dualidad (album) [MDD01]
release date: Nov 27th 2020
pre-order: https://reeko-mdisorder.bandcamp.com/album/dualidad

"Already in ancient Greece the universe and the idea of music were linked as intertwined elements. The Harmony of the Spheres that Pythagoras named is nothing if not a starting point for this inner journey that Reeko makes in the form of an album. Duality, ying and yang, black and white, us and the universe ... All indivisible and physical elements that with their existence make our lives music. Channelling all this is what this Asturian artist does, living it from introspection and transcendence, from inside to out.

Although Reeko has gotten us used to experimentation in many of his works, this time he goes a step further. Better not expect to find a dance beat on this album, not even a hint to the dancefloor. Instead, let's find a good seat and close our eyes and start to journey inwards and outwards at the same time. "Dualidad" shows us a constant struggle between the drive of imperfect melodies and that cosmos we were talking about. Two sides of the same coin, the irregularity of the universal "noise" against the softness of a light song, the dissonance that fights with harmony. Thus, a handful of songs emerge that require patient listening, without haste, with all the senses activated to appreciate the nuances that we will find built on layers of intricate sound sequences. 

Tracks were generated in the most organic way, in a single take, with hardly any post-production, resulting in a personal and unique work.

Listening to the tracks of "Dualidad" we are invited to take the journey that Reeko proposes us, letting ourselves be carried away by that visual imaginary so cinematographic that we all have in our heads about the universe. Who has not ever imagined crossing beyond the rings of Saturn?"

Next episode of Abaddon Podcast with NZM 99

Emerging from the rave scene, NƵM 99 is driven by a dark and acid techno with heavy and powerful basses, he likes to wow the crowds with his fingertips. A hyperactive producer, he created his own label Tjalk records as a tribute to his boat on which he lives.
From his teenage years, he draws his influences from the rave party movement as well as from the tracks of Arnaud Rebotini, The Hacker, Terence Fixmer and David Carretta.
At the age of 19, he bought his first analogue machines and never stopped enriching his set up as soon as the opportunity arose.
Fascinated by the warm grain of old synthesizers, he cultivates a techno with EBM tones that bewitches dance floors.

"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. "
