Polish underground artist Entire (Filip Olszewski) returns with Bad Trip Synesthesias - a raw, immersive, and hallucinatory descent into the shadowy edges of experimental electronics. Structured as a symbolic journey through the disorienting topography of a psychedelic experience.

From its opening moments, "Bad Trip Synesthesias" confronts the listener with a storm of industrial textures, mind-drilling rhythms and deep subterranean pulses. It's not just dark - it's tunneling: a mantric, sub-bass-heavy hypnosis that drags you inward. There are elements of experimental DnB, distorted ritualism, and sci-fi dread, but this isn’t a genre exercise - it’s a controlled implosion of form. A turning point comes with "Surrender, Fears", the last chapter before a cathartic release, requiring acceptance within the chaos and offering a glimpse of emotional transcendence. What follows is not resolution, but transformation: a broadening of perspective and finally, a return to reality in the closing track, "Re-entrance", which radiates an unexpectedly organic warmth.

There’s a distant echo of Eastern European futurism here - a kind of dream-logic that brushes against the surreal and the philosophical without ever fully revealing its hand. Entire shapes sound into something like speculative fiction: abstract yet visceral, alien yet deeply internal.

Most of the presented work have been composed while experiencing synesthetic effects, including strong sound-to-shape & sound-to-color associations.

1. Synesthesia #1 (Downwards, Backwards)

Trois-Quarts Taxi System b2b Kick 21 / Production Mix - 13 Juin 2025

Further Inward with biju

Stepping into shifting time and intricate sound design, biju charts a course through the Further Inward series with razor-edged precision. Pulsing through polymetric waves and syncopated shadows, his selections spiral inward. An endlessly looping dream, precise yet elusive. A cascade of shifting frames—relentless, refined, and beautifully disorienting.

We’re beyond happy to finally share the very first recording from Refractor.

This one captures around an hour of the captivating live set by the talented French artist trois quarts taxi system, who guided us from daylight into dusk on the second day of the gathering. A sonic passage, subtle yet powerful, weaving us gently through time.
