Repulsive Force - Until When

Fornøyelser og hånelser

Vet hva du vet feat. Lars Vaular (Oprofessionell Remix)

EKKEL - DRUM RING SEISIMIC003
Returning to an aphotic minefield of sound - Seismic Records is back with its third release, Drum Ring, crafted by Norwegian producer and Ute Records co-founder Ekkel. Emerging from the forests of Nordic electronic heritage, Teo Bachs - aka Ekkel - channels the raw energy of ’90s progressive sounds into his mind-bending productions. From the studio, his signature blend of breaks and intricate percussion create soundscapes that are as cerebral as they are propulsive. Titled Drum Ring, the EP captures the feeling of a complete mental trip through a narrative of tension, ancient textures, and enchanting melodies.  
Poised with a sense of urgency, the A-side unfolds with a neatly rolling rhythm. Hradec Fog Fever builds a controlled frenzy of percussive elements, with layers stripping in and out, consistently driving the track forward. Slipping into A2, Owl Foot casts a sonic mist, a haze that tentatively creeps forward, flickering between atmospheric dips and shadowy contours. Vocal-cut whispers transcend through the soundscape, shy yet impactful, drawing you closer. It’s a tender introduction to a minimalist, dark progressive journey - a delicate balance of intrigue and mystery, where each sound lingers like a secret waiting to be discovered.
The B-Side strikes with poignant, powerful drum kicks that reverberate through layers of distortion. Drum Ring displays echoes of tension and unease, building a restless energy that urges deeper introspection. Ancient, enchanting tones weave through the chaos, grounding the frenetic soundwaves in something timeless and mystical. Sealing the EP, Endphase begins with faint, distant string notes that offer a fleeting, hopeful moment of rest. Growling chords and textures swirl, edging you to a meditation, only to be punctuated by sharp, deliberate drum patterns, adding a sense of momentum and purpose - a glimmer of light breaking through the mist.
Experience the full cycle of a delicate trip as Ekkel guides you through Drum Ring - a precious and dark progressive journey.

A yin/yang essence threads the EP together with cosy, full bodied melodies, dynamic tempos & entrancing oddities throughout. It’s this subtle & harmonious balance of flavours that make Shoal a pitch-perfect fit for the Animalia family.

Tadan - Muses (12" snippets) [127AREA005]

Deep in the mountains there is a magical valley, where a lively little creek is gurgling down a rocky riverbed. The sun is burning, and the stream is luring, and you begin following the riverbed downstream. As the valley slopes start to narrow to a canyon, the noise of the growing stream echoes from the sheer rock faces, and you notice melodies and rhythms weaved into its texture. You scramble further down into the narrowing gorge, drawn by the more and more entrancing compositions. But beware! Solid dry ground is becoming sparse, and it is easy to lose footing and be taken by the swift flow of the currents, deeper and deeper down the gorge, to places where the waters sing strange melodies and the world is forgotten. But every stream shall end somewhere, to spit you back out into the bright sun, energized however, from the ride on the magical stream.

Floating, Glowing — a six-track voyage through shadowy low-end terrain.

Across four original cuts, RXEX navigates the edges between dancefloor pressure and introspective , blending dubstep, electro, and techno into a shape-shifting suite of modular psychedelia.

The EP also features two heavyweight remixes: Andy Garvey brings a tightly-wound techno take on Floating, Glowing, while Autogenesis smears Leo’s Trip into warped, dubbed-out form.

All profits from this release will be sent to Pay The Rent.

Exit Loop Radio: Episode 09 - Doctor Beak

[HARMONY021]— Harmony marches eastward with its 21st EP, reconnecting with its roots through a collaboration with Kohra and Monophonik. While firmly grounded in the label’s deep-techno foundations, this release leans into a sharper focus on functional, dance oriented grooves and basslines.

A-side is opening with weight and intent, shedding the EP’s melancholic hues for something darker and more forceful. The gently broken spirit of “Uyire” follows, gliding between drones and gated vocals, stitched together by tactile percussion and an underlying volatility.

“Wavefolding Dreams” lives up to its name—wickedly modulated waveforms rise from a slapping bassline that pour like upside-down rain, finally dissolving into soothing, dreamy pads.

“Eastern Timbers” starts B-side with a deep, driving momentum. Trancey basslines and swinging arpeggios ebb and flow with tidal pads, wrapping the EP in a hypnotic finish that pulses with forward energy.

Decompress with “Neuroresonance” situated on the inner ring of the B-side. Suspenseful sliding drones in a wide stereo field and a sustained chord that breathes nostalgia, covered by a playful filter in motion.
