Le Boot Camp Electro est une résidence de création musicale collective initiée à Nantes par Trempo et construite en partenariat avec le label TEM∃T. En février 2023, neuf producteur·trices émergent·es de musiques électroniques se sont retrouvé·es dans les studios de Trempo, encadré·es par l’artiste mentor Simo Cell. Cette tracklist est le résultat de trois jours de création.

Keugré - Six

The track starts with a focus on the stumbling beat and gradually evolves into a supersonic vibe, supported by a flangey dub melody and the aesthetic of fluttering forward and backward-played hi-hat sequences. A repetitive humanoid voice subliminally communicates through confusing number sequences.
"Vertigo" is an outstanding composition that merges the stylistic elements of different genres.

In a realm where the threads of fate intertwined with the tapestry of existence, there existed a timeless construct we call “MENG”. This transcendental domain pushed a sanctuary where an unholy wisdom was safeguarded. Within its twenty-two walls, the experiences of countless sages and seekers resided, forming a reservoir of enlightenment, of vision and of identity.

Among the enigmatic texts that adorned the shelves of The Memory Palace, one stood out—the "Tubular Heaven," a chapter that held the essence of the universe's patterns and transformations. The book we speak of is the Book of Change - I Ching. Legend has it that the Memory Palace embodied the vibrations of those who sought its wisdom, guiding them to the Slow-Chain’s pages where hexagrams unveiled the secrets of existence.

Amidst this cosmic dance of knowledge, there lived a young wanderer whose name we do not say out loud. Driven by a deep yearning for understanding, this Warrior ventured into the city of Tanoy. With every step, he felt the resonance of centuries long gone, as if the walls whispered to him the essence of reality itself - “you may fall as long as you stand up again. Repeat this 1000 times and you will understand me. Only then can we control the sound.” As he reached for the illuminated Book of Change, a light was cast onto a newly fabricated realm of questions.

One hexagram, in particular, was essential. The cryptic symbolism was perplexing. Upon meditation, we slowly begin to realize that life is indeed a tapestry of imperfections, yet from these glitches we arise with profound growth and transformation.

As our curiosity spikes, we delve into the pages that follow, discovering an unexpected connection between I Ching and the world of Jeans, no denim. In ancient times, the craft of weaving denim mirrored the wisdom of these hexagrams. Just as threads interwove to create a durable fabric, I Ching reveals how life's experiences intertwine to form a meaningful existence. Denim, like life, is sturdy yet adaptable - a true testament to the harmonious balance between falling and standing.

As this journey comes to a gentle end, we must stress that hexagrams prove that other divination systems exist. It has become clear that the patterns hitherto observed are not confined to one culture, tradition, mind or body. Instead, they echo throughout history, manifesting in various divination systems across our globe. Hexagrams are a universal language, transcending boundaries and demonstrating the interconnectedness of humanity's pursuit of higher understanding.
We can now truly emerge from the Memory Palace, carrying the wisdom of everything above us. It’s time to Drag A Friend into this Made Up Reality. Or is it? We now understand that life's glitches are the catalysts for growth and that just as threads wove together to create denim, experiences wove together to create a meaningful existence.

As we walk beneath the open sky, we whisper into the wind, "Hexagrams are the echoes of universal truths, proving that the search for wisdom knows no bounds."

The chimes tingle in the deep subset of your imagination. As the pages of the Book of Change unfurl one last time, the shimmering tapestry of our shallow minds unravels.

We have revealed the kaleidoscopic corridors where perceptions dance in hallucinogenic symphony to the hymns of our rich minds.

C2. Remains...

One year on from his first appearance on the PM+ series, Glasgow’s LWS returns with another two surefooted club cuts shot through with the emergent producer’s trademark flair and laser focus. Matching crisp functionality with dance-melting peaks, he’s zeroed in modernist machine music to incite a feverish response in the firmly established format of the PM+ releases. 

‘Oop’ ratchets down its rhythm section in an instant, leaning on a hefty sub payload and sprinkling some lopsided spectral synth work up top. It’s the buzzing sawtooth bass which will really cast brains and bodies asunder though, gouging a path through the springy groove like a hyped raver making a beeline for front left dosed up on Irn-Bru. 

‘Routine Supreme’ has its own share of fireworks to set off, maintaining the instinctive bounce of ‘Oop’ before derailing the circus train with staccato tech triplets to get gun fingers twitching manically. There’s space for pitch-sliding breakdowns and subtly euphoric peaks, but the rhythm section remains front and centre for maximum club capability. 

Road tested by the trustiest of turntable botherers, both these cuts come with a rave-wrecking guarantee, but that’s no surprise as LWS confirms his prime position in the liminal zone where house, techno and bass coalesce.

Mhost Likely Black presents the second J-XSTAPOSE compilation. This time it features the five artists - freij, Andrømeda, Bjerregaard, Danilenko, and Christian Tilt. J-XSTAPOSE Vol. 2 is a collection of raw, industrial and hypnotic-infused techno tracks.

Kickstarting the EP is the hard-hitting ‘Gym 2000’ by Fochs Koshka member freij. A hint about his upcoming releases in 2024 on Mhost Likely. Andrømeda leads the EP down a dark and raw path with her track ‘Distorted Reality’, making you wish you were raving hard in a dark basement club in Barcelona. Similarly, a beefy workout is Flux Collective’s Bjerregaard with his ‘Meat Grinder’. The Bergen-based Ukrainian artist Danilenko delivers a twisting melodic hook in his ‘Bending Around’ that swirls and hypnotizes before local techno hero Christian Tilt completes the EP with a lighter and healing tone - making you ready for another round.

IN OUR CHAPTER II WE ARE GOING TO
PRESENT U THE APPROACH OF CONNECTING
YOUNG AMBITIOUS MUSICAL ARTISTS
WITH VISUAL ARTISTS.
WE ARE TRYING TO USE OUR PLATFORM
TO OVERLAP COMMUNITIES AND PRODUCE A
COMPOSITION WHICH U MIGHT CAN RELATE
TO.

FOR OUR SECOND COMPOSITION WE INVITE

LAURA SEBASTIANES.
Laura Sebastianes is a visual artist based in Barcelona. Her work is mainly in the sculptural field, but she also works with video and text. Her most recent sculptural practice has a very objectual character, with special interest in the place of the affective, emotional or sensorial in art; a reflective approach that revolves around the functional nature of the sculpture itself. This approach to the sculptural object has to do with the need to generate a context open to tactile, physical and sound experimentation that sometimes extends beyond its own materiality or meanings. Laura also has a special interest in reconnecting with manual work and deepening those practices that throughout history have been linked to care, pedagogy, socialization and the transmission of knowledge (orality, crafts).

PAUL WECK.
“I created this 3 deck vinyl Dub mixtape in an associative process with sculptural artist Laura Sebastianes. The audio-visual piece could be understood as a dialog between our artistic mediums, which are music and sculpturing. In this particular work the mediums were formed by Dub music and water, two components which are often associated with each other and there for have a cultural link between them.”

ENJOY.
