THAT GIRL

bruises:
shes swaying i think of her
i know of her
i feel it hurt
(everything’s my fault so I do not bother ) 
its running on my mind 
its my life 
on her time 
(If youre in the house dont tell my mother ) 

shade the skin
with paint within 
I lose I bruise I never choose 
(there she goes)
It’s always you….

bruises ( ft. J.P. )

Taken from SBKT055: TRANCE BAND - Entrancing
Release date: 3rd March 2023

In a global landscape that increasingly prioritizes individuality over collaborative expression, TRANCE is a distinctive project. Initiated by Chinese multidisciplinary artist Tianzhuo Chen, best known for his work with Asian Dope Boys, TRANCE is as artistically amorphous as its constantly evolving line-up, that fluctuates as it shimmers across borders and time-zones. In 2019, the project was demoed in Beijing as part of a solo exhibition from Chen, a 12-hour durational performance that examined the altered states of living and dying and pondered the sounds, sensations, bodies and spaces that notion might suggest. On hold for three years due to COVID-19 restrictions, TRANCE was eventually premiered in Hamburg at the Kampnagel Theatre last year where it was presented as a surreal three-day ceremony. This time around the Trance Band was made up of Berlin-based noisemaker and vocalist Dis Fig, Indonesia's Gabber Modus Operandi, musician and MC KIM KHAN, guitarist and engineer Felix-Florian Tödtloff, and Vancouver-based percussionist and producer CITY. Chen directed the show, channeling each artist's unique energy into an alliance that highlighted their independent skills while pushing towards ideas that simply couldn't have been realized discretely.

"Entrancing" is a live documentation of that incendiary Hamburg session, powered by the performative fireworks that came from having the project halted for two years before it was allowed to burst into life once more. Just as with previous iterations of TRANCE, the space was terraformed into an alien landscape that allowed the collective to enact a carnivalesque display that was tightly controlled but creatively boundless. Musical u-turns were accompanied by monumental stage overhauls that reshaped a muddy, fog-filled outdoor riverscape into an arena, or a sweaty nightclub. This theatrical impact can't be visualized as clearly on the record, but musical cues do just enough heavy lifting to provide a tantalizing contour. When the alluring electro-acoustic plucks and resonant sustained string tones of 'There's a Ghost in the Lantern' cascade into cinematic drone metal on 'Ylva's Theme', it's impossible not to be drawn into the TRANCE narrative. Sonic stage lights flicker with uncommon intensity as the nebulous group rewrite their collective personal stories into stirring, synergistic poetry.

"Something changes!" KIM KHAN calls out on 'Soft and Black', cutting through warbling synths and itchy beatbox percussion. The track builds quickly, reaching a sizzling crescendo of buzzsaw noise and acidic electronics. It's a stylistic sea change that channels the group's kinetic energy into a rock show, and CITY picks up the message on 'Trance Genesis', adding rapid-fire drums to a barrage of guitar skronk. 'Shaolin Affliction' glues Trance Band's jagged artistic edges to a vintage metal template, gradually dissolving into throaty post-hardcore, while 'My Fortress' brings the show to a powerful conclusion with Dis Fig assuming the role of grunge balladeer, bellowing into the void over cacophonous live instrumentation. Unbound by musical and artistic conventions, TRANCE peers out from the basement, the gallery and the playhouse to forge an expression that's all of this and something new entirely. It's refreshing, witty, exhilarating and most of all, completely unpredictable.

v1984 & City - Parallel Phrases [digital only]

@m0rimori

Through 11 tracks the listener is ushered through a liquid melting scene, beginning in collective hope and beauty that feels liquid and infectious, lusciously filled with synthetic, bliss filled harmonies.

that safety seems to come apart though as the musician takes us on a trip that inverts our surroundings at the midway mark, exposing the darkness and solitude our hope could only mask in its closing tracks, echoing the pain of observing this world in turmoil.

this tale of innocence lost is punctuated with a feature from thrilliam angels, complementing the artist’s ethereal voice with production from a secret other place.

A reckoning is coming. It looms over us like a massive loomer. I’m talking huge, bigstyle big. An oppressive shadow of pure concentrated indeterminate dread. There will be consequences. What shape might they take? It starts with innerinnerlife’s ‘what rymes with getting by’, out on Transatlantic. It’s upon us now.

Diving Headfirst Into The Sun

innerinnerlife - 4clover

In a meeting of kindred spirits, @innerinnerlife and @hqlorenzi have united their creative forces to birth « stay with U » a soulful echo of hope, released through the ether of Hyperlink. This collaboration stands as a shimmering beacon, capturing the tender ache of nostalgia and the yearning for a brighter tomorrow.

Born from a deep mutual reverence, « stay with U » is the fruit of two artists who have long walked parallel paths. Their soundscapes, though distinct, share a common heartbeat —  one that pulses with melody, harmony, and the quiet resolve to transform fleeting emotions into lasting beauty. 

Together, they craft not just music but a vessel of reflection, where the echoes of past joys meet the promise of what is yet to come.

We will stay with you ♡
