Notes of snowflakes filling cracks in the pavement, glimmering in the light from a distant window. Crisp fog settling on an open field. A light dusting of pollen on the windshield. Tiny twigs rearranging underfoot. Furtive glance of recognition between two toads.

Thank you, Levan, for sharing a shard of your inner most self around our campfire.

THE CHARITY COMPILATION FOR UKRAINE

We, nineteen Czech & Czechia based producers, are in unison against the aggressive occupation and invasion of a sovereign country of Ukraine. On February 24, 2022, Russian troops invaded Ukraine, masking the operation as a "peacekeeping mission”. On August 21, 1968, our country was also invaded by the Soviets and Warsaw Pact armies. The occupation lasted over four more decades.

No more invasions! Fuck imperialism of all kinds!

100 % of received revenues will be split between Ukrainian NGOs written below. You can also support them directly here:

www.uahospitals.org
eng.ffr.org.ua/support-in-crisis/eng

We already fundraised over 30 000 CZK (1200+ EUR), from which we already supported NGOs mentioned above. We also sent monty to John Object‘s military unit to help them with purchasing the equipment for their defense.

***IMPORTANT INFO****
The amount of money you send is NOT the amount of money we will receive and we can send to the people in need. However, there are a few things you can do:
1) Purchase the release during the Bandcamp Friday (March 04). Bandcamp usually cuts down 15 % revenue share, so choose this date for purchase if you want to avoid that.
2) You can also support NGOs and charities directly and get a free download code from us, if you‘ll send us the screenshot of at least 10 EUR donation to some of Ukrainian help charities by your choice to our email unizoneclubnights@gmail.com with "Donation" in subject.

Thank you for any kind of support!
Слава Україні! Героям слава!

DJ BINGO - AND I WAIT, AND I WAIT

@zerocrossingpoint
It is time to let go of your fear and doubts. You must learn to embrace the darkness of your soul, for it is a light beacon of hope for humanity. Your soul wants to show itself in its truest form, strength, perseverance, courage and determination of spirit. In this lifetime your soul needs to cleanse and open its feelings for katharsis.

With the double compilation “Infinite Summer: Ekstase & Fantasi”, katharsis celebrates the return of raves and concerts to society after a long period of pandemic shutdown. A magical summer has past filled with a great pallet of emotional material, ready to be expressed. Therefore, we encouraged a collection of artists we adore to channel their imagination of the greatest way to conclude an endless summer night with into a piece of music.

This resulted in a grand assemblage of harmonious manifestations, naturally splitting into two divisions with opposing focuses. In contrast to the first part of the duology “Ekstase”, which focused on euphoric and dancefloor-oriented outputs, this second part “Fantasi” has a more serene and introverted focal point. The majority of the tracks seem to be meant to stop time in deep reflection with a placid sunrise as the backdrop, exemplified by the purgative opener “salomé” by Aestum, but the listener will find occasional rhythmic outpourings like the unhurried clubby vibes on awbluu’s “Rosalyne (Voxen)” or the beautiful melodic “we will get where?” by Beham.

Infinite Summer: Fantasi

Luisa's Flight

premiere: Zero Crossing Point - Luisa's Flight [Infinite Summer: Fantasi]

​Opening our mix series we are proud to invite Fanny for EX001.

With an open mind towards electronic music in all its forms, especially the most adventurous ones, Fanny scoured the clubs and digital music groups & forums before launching in 2020 her own label Hyperlink, focused on the future of club cultures.

Hyperlink is a hybrid creature: label, podcasts, radio shows and events. With its sensitive and curious approach to visual arts and avant-garde electronic music, it unites artists and music nerds from all over the internet around futuristic and poetic aesthetics while deconstructing conventional categories.

After several years of activism and intensive digging, Fanny started djing and - more recently - started learning MAO. Her crystalline universe, distraught by breaks from all horizons, links angular rhythms and organic melodies, decomposed breaks, abrasive textures and ambiguous atmospheres.

Taken from SBKT057: mmph - Harvest

Release date: 26th April 2023

-------

It's been five years since Korean-born, Los Angeles-based sound designer and composer Sae Heum Han, aka mmph, released his last EP Serenade on the Tri Angle label in flurry of activity. "Harvest" arrives after an unintentional pause; three years ago, Han was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that immediately changed his priorities. Bedridden and exhausted from medication, he was only able to work on music for around an hour each day - the rest of his time was swallowed by rest and precarious trips to hospital in the midst of a global pandemic. Now in remission, Han looks back on this period as a time of emotional evolution where the ideas behind "Harvest" could be unravelled. The album emerges from his desire to reconnect with the Korean music he heard when he was growing up in Seoul, using these discernible timbres as building blocks to decorate with his advanced palette of electronic sounds and processes.

Han's music has always balanced precariously between the rigor of classical training and the relative open-endedness of electronic experimentation. This duality is still present on "Harvest", but Han's canvas has widened slightly. He continues to blur the line between the traditional and the modern, emulating and mirroring Korean instruments with synthesizers and sound design elements, and blending them with acoustic sounds and live percussion samples. But where his previous records and scoring work highlighted his ability to weave baroque forms into tight, contemporary sonic tapestries, this album adds the drama, yearning and spirituality of folk. On 'Dialogue' for example, pitch-warped traditional vocals twist through an ensemble of bizarre future-ancient sounds; fluttering strings dissolve into spiked percussive barbs and synthesized wails cut through walls of industrial noise.

'Spirit' follows quickly, coaxing listeners into a trance state with its flurry of microtonal string plucks and irregular percussion. Han is a master of breath control, letting his brief moments of negative space interrupt any expected regularity and guide the track away from electronic music's expected grid. This just about prepares the ground for the title track, a labyrinthine maze of dramatic compositional motifs and dizzying sonics that mutates from gugak forms into a cacophony of pneumatic blast beats before snapping back. From here the album lurches towards the dancefloor for a moment, absorbing and contorting cantankerous club rhythms on 'Avnue' and 'Moon Jar', slowing to a crawl on 'Harvest II'. Despite hijacking its theme from the title track's blast beat section, it transforms into a ballad, acting as a fittingly tearjerking finale.

The record is rounded off by a trio of remixes that draw Han further into the SVBKVLT family. Egyptian producer ABADIR chops up 'Harvest' and reassembles it into a jerky banger, extracting its dancefloor potential and evolving hardstyle thuds into spectral concertina flexes. 'Moon Jar' meanwhile is turned into twitchy trance by Shade Seoul's NET GALA, and Yen Tech stitches together 'Avnue' and 'Dialogue', creating an anxious backdrop that shuttles mmph's android folk to the modern metropolis.
