Lidvall - Learned Helplesness [Album] [LTD014]

Following a first iteration which set the tone for our newly-minted Heimat series in explosive fashion, here comes the much anticipated second batch of our zeitgeistian take on today’s scene’s, its current potential and destination. Showcasing productions from artists keen to roll up their sleeves and sail into the impassible status quo, this new number packs the kind of red-hot hammering and cutting-edge punch we’ve been so adamant to push and defend over the past decade.

Berlin-based French producer Arkan steps in first with a proper magnetic depth charge. Dwelling the darker layers of our ocean floor as its name suggests, ’Submarine’ is pure hypnotic material geared up for heavy-duty boogie in the warehouse. Filling its ballast tanks with a hefty deluge of muscular bass onslaughts, sonar-like bleeps and untamed cascades of loopy arps, this one rolls and pitches like a haunted ship on predator mode. Adding his dynamic pulse and mind-bending spin to the A-side, Frameworks & Untertwegs bossman Decka cuts a path of straight mental obliteration as he smashes the doors of the club wide open and parades all guns blazing with the unapologetic crusher that is ‘Circumvent’. A no-holds-barred workout for the strong stomachs, churning out fiery bars of kick-drum/squelchy bass contrast with in-your-face swagger.

Switching on to the flip side, there’s Manchester’s Yant cruising with the ebulliently dynamic (no shit, Sherlock) tune, ‘Moving’. A multidirectional concerto of pong-like modularity and racing synth arpeggios flying off like coloured bricks in a Tetris game gone absolute batshit. The kind of hi-intensity burner that’ll awaken any lukewarm mid-set flow with its bouncy unpredictability and ruthless forward-pushing thrust. Rounding it off on a further minimal note, Amsterdam up-and-comer Hitam treats us to an inch-perfectly engineered finale with a stripped-back - yet, absolutely not hollow - bomb, ‘Venusian Winds’. Gutsy that one sure is, with its metronomic step ticking at near-cyclonic speed and cleverly arranged, subtly FX-coated funk keeping things both suspenseful and focussed thru and thru. A sleek combo of pared-down brutalism and masterly executed analogue tailoring altogether.

All dressed in clear purple marbled wax for the occasion, "Heimat II" shall please both the techno purist and visual aesthete in you with its velvet touch and effortless chic.

Component is an Irish techno producer who drops a raw and hypnotic album with ethereal vocals.

Currently living in London (UK), Ger Gleeson aka Component has a dark and driving style of techno that combines analogue synths with hard-hitting percussion.

Prior to this self-released album, Component's music has been a feature of respected record labels such as Gobsmacked Records, ITU and Archivio 01.

For this DT:Premiere we selected "Detroit Fairground" with a twisted and dark sound. Punchy percussion is met with morphing acid tones and a threatening lead synth that create an ominous intensity throughout this moody trip.

The Quotidian Contradictions EP is a reminder of the sentiment of change, with some shifts being more impactful than others. These changes influence life in different directions than before, creating contradictions in our beliefs about what once was. Transforming paths may take things away, but each track serves as my reminder to understand and accept that this approach is necessary to bring new joy into life.

Title: When Darkness Surrenders To The Lights EP
Catalog Number: MOC040
Label: made of CONCRETE
Release Date: 06.09.2024

RELEASE INFO:
Next up on 'made of Concrete is an occult offering from label heads Rebar, backed by a filmic remix from Sardinia-born, Tresor resident Claudio PRC.

The record begins with 'Dawn's Embrace' - a chilly trip that unfurls with deeply suspensive energy. Masterfully arranged, the track courses through its chapters as minor key synths and delicate percussion expand and fork out like rivers toward an oceanic breakdown and finale.

'Radiant Resurgence' continues the journey with a modular meditation. An expansive, morphing pad generates a great depth of sound while myriad parameters are tweaked and mangled, giving the work a living, breathing quality.

'When Darkness Surrenders To The Lights' sets the tone for another murky journey. Atonal drones form dystopian waves that crash against industrial percussion as a cinematic sense of tension develops. Claudio PRC then contributes some of his trademark widescreen sonics.

Now based in Berlin, Claudio PRC is widely appreciated for his meticulous, cosmic take on Techno, and his work here beautifully expands on this trademark. A deep-set kick provides buoyancy and ballast while soaring synths spread their wings. Polyrhythms begin to overlap, giving the track a subtle primal energy that carries the record to its conclusion.

Claudio PRC’s (@claudioprc) fifth album, Self Surrender, unfolds as a reflective journey of self-acceptance, a story embracing reality in its purest and most unfiltered form. Released via Delsin Records, this marks his first full-length album on the label, following the EP’s Rites of Passage (2021), Challenger Deep (2022) and Golden Scales (2024).

The album explores different and more leftfield sonic corners, while remaining true to Claudio’s cavernous, deep, and spiritual essence. It’s a journey through different styles, with echoes of the past and contemporary influences merging.

Self Surrender begins with ambient and dub echoes, moving through dark, minimal rhythms and deep techno. It blends techno and house elements, exploring themes of sin and redemption with cutting synths and tight grooves. This first half of the longplayer closes introspectively with a reflective ambient piece.

In the second part, the sound shifts to more energetic techno. It’s driven by heavy kicks and dreamy atmospheres, with acid-laden textures and haunting strings. To conclude, Self Surrender closes with an ethereal track, fully embodying the theme of surrender and acceptance.

Born in Sardinia and now based in Berlin, Claudio PRC has been a key figure in the deep techno scene since 2006. His music is deeply rooted in a philosophical approach, drawing from Detroit techno, electroacoustics, and his academic background in Music and New Technologies. Over the years, he has released on labels such as Prologue Music, Semantica Records, while also establishing his label 012 as a platform for art and sound research.
