Roel Funcken & EXM – Flyphel

Two IDM icons, Roel Funcken and exm come together on Science Cult for an LP that is nothing short of alchemy. Flyphel feels like a living, breathing entity — an intricate fusion of sound that shifts between the mechanical and the organic. Each track unfolds like a story told in textures and tones, with Funcken’s razor-sharp precision meeting exm’s ethereal abstractions. You’re not just invited to listen, you’re pulled into its world, where every detail reveals something new on repeat visits.

This stunning release arrives as a 2 x 12″ LP encased in a beautifully printed outer jacket with matching inner sleeves featuring paintings by Roel Funcken, making this as much a visual statement as an auditory one. With their combined expertise in sound design and their shared commitment to pushing boundaries, Roel Funcken and exm have created something that feels both timeless and ahead of its time.

Akuratyde makes a bold and deeply personal statement with Inviting Chaos. The album explores the beautiful disorder of parenthood and the emotional complexities of intentionally inviting upheaval into your life. Marking his solo debut on Bop’s renowned Microfunk imprint, it reframes his signature sound into something brighter and more unpredictable.

There’s a sense of personal evolution woven throughout, from dancefloor-friendly rhythms to sparse microfunk beats, the album moves fluidly between styles, revealing a new facet of his sound. More than just a sonic shift, Inviting Chaos captures an emotional truth rarely expressed in electronic music: how deeply life changes when you willingly step into the unknown.

Akuratyde - Inviting Chaos

Synths these days have become so powerful, it got me thinking: is it possible to make a FULL TUNE out of just one instance? Turns out it is!

Mirroring Scapes

Here's a track I just put out as part of the 10th anniversary compilation of one of my favourite labels, Glasgow's finest Bricolage. It also happens to be the first track I'm putting out as a solo production under my own name. It is kinda ambient/downtempo/dub/lo-fi/IDM-ish - I hope you like it!

Background - raintypewriter (out now on Bricolage's X compilation)

Pre-order: melodizemusic.bandcamp.com/album/killing-culture

Bristol-based producer @zobol lands on Brooklyn imprint @melodizemusic with 'Killing Culture', a bold, four-track statement that fuses electro and breaks into something raw, physical, and emotionally-charged.

B-side track 'Weapon of Mass Distraction' unfolds from a looping synth fragment, slowly ramping into a tense, bass-driven groove - relentless, exacting, and distractingly armoured with acidity.

NUAGE @ Microfunk Evening [23.06.2018]

Akuratyde 'Inviting Chaos' LP: https://microfunk.bandcamp.com/album/inviting-chaos

Microfunk Music is an independent click'n'bass label run by Bop.

Mostly into downtempo/chillout/trip hop/psy dub but also enjoy atmospheric drum n bass, deep/progressive house, and dub electronic (aka dub techno, though the 'techno' part can be disturbing to some)

Originally from the Chicago area, so that may explain my interest in more intelligent styles of music.  Now I'm in a place where everyone listens to the same toilet radio and don't really appreciate good music. Seriously - even a minute of that sh¡t is too much. 

Respect to the following for introducing me to their styles

atmo dnb : Seba, PFM, Intersperse, ambispheric, f1rstpers0n, Artin@Soundtraveler 
minimal / chill dnb : Bop, Microfunk, Mav 
progressive house : Suicide Sheep, Dejan Pavolvic, The Grand Sound 
dub electronic : f1rstpers0n, sound-tv, Mark Mello, Drift Deeper 
deep house : Anjunadeep, Deep Space House, Trevor Nygaard
downtempo/lounge : Enigma, Starstreams, Solar Stone, Q.E.M.F. (Quality Electronic Music Fan - RIP) 

Respect and RIP to VPK - an old family friend who grew up on disco. Working with Vince and helping him find music online (back when Napster and Kazaa were a thing lol) surely had some influence on my interest in electronic music. I found my way into Trance around that time, and while I've since lost interest, DJs like Oakenfold, ATB, PVD, Markus Schulz, etc. introduced me to the continuous DJ mix... 

Selected artwork on this profile by Tatsuya Ishida (sinfest.net), chosen because...they seemed to make sense here (if that makes sense)
