calm but rithmic

Had a lot of fun recording this one, lots of different flavours and a few unreleased bits of my own - big thanks to the boys for having me!

Interview:

For this week’s episode of the mixtape series, we’ve invited Tom Jarmey to take the reigns – Tom is a DJ, producer and co-founder of the Manchester-based party Wax Villainy. As always, we first caught up to hear about the mix & what he’s been up to lately…

I’ve recently polished off my geography degree in Manchester and I’m now spending the remainder of summer at home in the countryside – a much needed rest from the carnage that ensues the final post-exam month at uni. It’s also set to act as a bit of downtime to get stuck into the production grind once more. In terms of DJing, I’ve been playing at a handful of sit down events across the UK—while fun, I’m itching to get back into a proper club environment come the 19th of July! Let’s also hope festivals can go ahead (fingers crossed).

The mix was recorded at my family home in Wiltshire with the aid of 2 XDJ 700’s, a DJM 450 and a pretty view of the quaint English hamlet – keeping things simple. A few heads were turned from passing dog walkers during the final third of the mix, I suppose the residents don’t take too kindly to drumfunk. 

I spent a long time deciding whether to theme this mix around my more ambient tastes, or take things in the grittier club direction. In the end I settled on a bit of both—dedicating the first half to the more atmospheric end of the spectrum, with a bunch of unreleased ambient and drill tracks from both my aliases (Tom Jarmey and Ocean Stirs), and dedicating the second half to the sort of music I’d play in a club set. 

Up next…

On the production side of things, I’ve got a lot of exciting bits on the horizon. Firstly, my good mate Ed Hodge and I have our second record from Mother Of Pearls – our collaborative project – dropping on independent London label Gunfinger Food later in July. Following that, I’m releasing two more Ocean Stirs EPs on Holding Hands and X-Kalay—both adopting more of a jungle-orientated focus, with the latter being blessed by a remix from none other than Tim Reaper. I’ve also recently finished writing and mixing my second Tom Jarmey album which will be seeing the light of day next year.

More generally, I’ll be continuing to play out and relentlessly produce so keep your eyes peeled!

An empty page is before us.
Inner silence takes over our mind. A silence louder than our anticipation of what's coming.
With each of our cells, we just do one thing: wait.

Then, we hear the whispers of the page turning. The next chapter is about to start.

----
Introducing Gnork's new album: Inner Ride. It is something to listen to with your headphones on and your mind wandering. It's influenced by the cosmic and psychedelic sound of the 70's, from Pink Floyd to Herbie Hancock, with a twist of the synths of the Berlin school. 

The tracks were made in the span of 5 years from 2017, though they are not a collection of random jams. Inner ride is a conceptual, full-length musical work with 10 songs. A classic album that was designed to put on to your record player and to get lost in it.

Gnork - Inner Ride LP  /// Out on Next Chapter

It's been 4 years since we started the HD Mix series, featuring and hosting some of our best friends and favourite artists. We knew we had to make #100 a special one, and we couldn't think of anyone better to feature than electro-queen, Alienata!

We've been a massive fan of the @discos_atonicos honcho for years but were particularly blown away after seeing her live in the Hague at The Crave Festival in 2018, effortlessly blending between acid, electro, and techno.

As well as being a regular feature on many festivals and Berlins, infamous HOR bathroom, Alienata's record label has established itself as one of the most reputable imprints in modern-day electro, releasing with artists such as CYRK, w1b0, and The Spy, to name a few.

GIFKIKKER is a Brussels based collective and label that fuses roughness and bite with depth- and clarity. Inspired by the sounds of the rustling leaves, flowing rivers and industrial soundscapes, our aim is to create genre-fluid music that blast the listeners into a wall of sound. Experimentation is key, where there are no boundaries.

Familiar Yet Strange

A bottomless staircase swallowing itself whole
A crimson cloth falls, tracing gravity’s scale

Familiar strangeness embracing the void
The shadow of sorrow carries affection

A gaze slipping through the cracks of the stairs
Chases its own tail, mimicking infinity

The crimson cloth is still in descent
With no ground to reach

Eternally, slowly

-

익숙하고도 낯선

스스로를 삼켜버린 끝 모를 계단
붉은 천은 중력의 음계를 따라 떨어진다

공허를 껴안은 익숙한 낯섦
우울의 그림자는 애정을 짊어진다

계단의 틈새로 스며든 시선은
자신의 꼬리를 물며 무한을 흉내 내고

붉은 천은 아직도 추락 중
도달할 바닥조차 없이

영원히, 천천히

BAEK-KYOUNG EP.16 | Familiar Yet Strange - Yung

The second offering from the Abyss is a labyrinthine journey drawn from the kaleidoscopic mind of Te Whanganui-a-Tara–based artist 𝐈𝐤𝐨𝐧𝐚.

Within Aotearoa’s psychedelic circles, Ikona needs little introduction. A steadfast vessel of sound with a vision wholly his own. Master of sound design, modular synthesis, and live performance, he’s inscribed his name deep upon the walls of the scene.

We welcome 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 — a descent into the labyrinth, its corridors lined with winding rhythms and shifting textures, each track a prismatic spiral of sound, standing clear testament to Ikona’s singular voice.

Perpetual

Monoconda - Trees Fall

Slovenian artist EB King provides GLYK with three magnificent jams. One shines like a juicy nightshade berry on a silver plate. The other is the soundtrack for moody werewolves on full moon and the last invites you to an afterhour on Steve Zissous submarine.
