Conrad Pack - Stepper

You couldn’t be blamed for expecting the first music release by Cem Dukkha to be a raw rave soundtrack for orgiastic dancefloors. After all, the co-founder of Herrensauna—a stalwart reprieve from Berlin’s normified dance scene—has carved unique apertures for the global, queer electronic underground. But Music for Spaces is far from the club-ready productions that he and his party spins for freaks looking for catharsis. These are delicate, vertiginous works of sound art that wilt when touched.

Far from tunes or tracks, the three pieces on Music for Spaces are more like sculptures, set in sparse fields of slow-growth eeriness. Indiscernible sonic creatures scurry past. The works were conceived for various performances and exhibitions by Cem’s partner Mauro Ventura; to create them, Cem relished the squeezing of simple sounds into a palette of textures and the occasional motif: Manipulated guitar, scant pianos, field recordings, and rococo orchestral arrangements converge into environments that literally evolve with every listen.

Though Cem loves the craft that has catapulted him through the international underground, he worries that DJing is sometimes more akin to the service industry than the arts. “This is a new way of expressing myself that isn’t through DJing,” Cem says. “Making music is much more vulnerable and personal.” Born to Turkish parents in Vienna, Austria, Cem (pronounced like “gem”) grew up playing in punk and black metal bands. When the pandemic hit, Cem found himself wanting to integrate all the tools he’d acquired along his musical journey, while shedding the DJ’s function as a clock for good times.

The effects of Music for Spaces on the listener range from disaffected ennui to ecstatic contemplation, but there is a mix of human and nonhuman on this CD that blurs such distinctions. Shimmers, gurgles, other-dimensional buzzings—this music is bizarre and untranslatable to any dancefloor we can currently imagine. But perhaps it’s time we do.

PLIB030 - CEM - 1. FORMA WAITING ROOM (SNIPPET)

Building on from releases on key underground outposts (L.I.E.S, Blackest Ever Black, Death & Leisure), December hits back with his second full LP, and his most realised work to date, peering into the shadows and paranoia of the last few years, media led chaos, climate collapse and the longing to bring the whole damn system to its knees. Limited copies moving out on Natural Sciences Recs now.

December - The Outside World (LP) snippets (natural sciences)

"Un mix pour réveiller le versant sombre de la bête, fait de morceaux déroutants, de voix satyriques, d’ambiances sonores crissantes, construit tout en tension.
Une invitation à emprunter les courbes dangereuses, à creuser des entailles incicatrisables, à célébrer la dégénérescence, à exhaler ses passions noires."

(English below)

Couronne de Merde a l’habitude de libérer ses frustrations et ses sentiments d’injustice par la création. Son style est un mélange compulsif entre une jeunesse ancrée dans la musique classique, une adolescence emo en quête d’exutoire musical et les cordes sensibles de ses synthétiseurs.

Cette faille temporelle se reflète notamment sur son nouvel album “Policy of Trust”, constitué de morceaux composés au fil des années. Les influences de Depeche Mode ou Christoph de Babalon s’y font sentir, propulsées dans un univers techno aux fréquences saturées.

La recherche de transcendance à travers des atmosphères sonores cinématographiques embarque l’auditeur dans un train de nuit métallique où les paysages s’entrechoquent, entre espoir planant et violence déchirante.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Couronne de Merde has an habit of releasing his frustrations and feelings of injustice through creation. His style is a compulsive mix between a youth anchored in classical music, an emo adolescence in search of a musical outlet and the sensitive strings of his synthesizers.

This temporal rift is notably reflected on his new album "Policy of Trust", made of tracks composed over the years. The influences of Depeche Mode or Christoph de Babalon can be felt, propelled in a techno universe with saturated frequencies.

The search for transcendence through cinematographic sound atmospheres takes the listener on a metallic night train where landscapes collide, between soaring hope and heartbreaking violence.
