Swedish Naan Boys - Through The Cusp - SAND002 - Preview

"A remix package which well represent the multifaceted approach of Midgar to techno. Edit-Select opens with a long and groovy rework of 'Lost In The Instability', keeps the peculiar synth & basslines of the original cut, and goes further, carrying those elements to deeper dimensions. Synthek delivers a stabbing remix of 'Nibelheim', a killer techno cut where powerful broken beats continuously crash into the heaviest sonic waves. 'Alba' was originally an interlude solely composed of ambient sounds and ephemeral voices, which evolved with Luigi Tozzi's interpretation into a sweet and melancholic trip. Wata Igarashi to close the record, re-imagines 'Pulse Width' as a mind-stressing experience held in a frame of hollow drones"

Die Rose des Erwachens wurzelt filigran im Untergrund des Seins,
blüht auf im lichtvollen Glimmer des wahrhaftigen Lebens,
lässt unentwegt neue Triebe erkenntnisreich wachsen,
auf das Gaias Herz beschwingend im Glanze pulsiere
und der Geist des Wissens & der Wahrheit durch jede nur erdenkliche Erfahrung gedeihe.

San Miguel - Rosé

Agnosia project began four years ago, they been influenced by different sound styles, from 90’s Shoegaze till contemporary Ambient and Techno.

Looking for a melancholic sound, they swim into distortioned melodies, mixing progressive and quiet grooves, swallowing you to a metaphorical trip inside the mind of the main character of the story in every release, using the thoughts as the principal way of expression.

The link between music and artworks to their ephemeral manoeuvres, is the principal feature reflected on the label, practicing a musical language through walls of sound and the personal feelings of Agnosia.

In every release, Ephemeral Manoeuvres, will count with a new artist who can change the script to make a new variation for the end of the story. In “Anatomy of Melancholia”, Ness joins the record, creating a daydreamed way of escape for the main character of the story, who’s trapped in his own mind exploration about the loss of a beloved person.

Natch Elements debut with Drone Capacity Ep by the uprising deep techno talent BLNDR. The french producer delivers 4 cuts delineating the primary label's aesthetics, additionally twisted up and remixed by label boss Synthek and compatriot Hydrangea. The record's intro is the ethereal Temples and Mothership, welcoming the listener to a sonic journey which takes the first beat/steps with Wandering Soul. This second cut is made out of fragmented drums alternating a solid kick and delayed vocals. Closing the first side, we find the powerful Drone Capacity, track which gives the title to the release, setting the pace higher and bringing a significant amount of energy in the game. On the flipside, the mystical groove of Silent Quest reveals some deep jungle's secrets and leaves the closing duties to razor-sharp Synthek remix of Drone Capacity which reworks the original elements adding heavy pressure and dancefloor vibes. Left out of the vinyl length the beautiful atmospheric rework of the evergrowing Hydrangea, drawing an alternative, more spacious and organic vision of SIlent Quest. This last cut will be available for free download in the same time of the physical release. NTCEL01 sow the seeds of a new catalogue that supports artists with certain attention for deep and detailed compositions.

- Re-mastered from the original DAT by Matt Colton
- Re-released Friday 16th December (Vinyl - Feb 2017)
https://randsrecords.bandcamp.com/album/meditation-will-manifest


Originally released on vinyl by R&S in 1994, ‘Meditation Will Manifest’ was re-earthed in 2016 by Nina Kraviz and Ricardo Villalobos, becoming a secret weapon on dancefloors 22 years after its original release. On December 16, ‘Meditation Will Manifest’ gets its first digital release on R&S.
 
Josh Wink has always been ahead of musical trends and walks his own path in dance music. From a young age Wink was exposed to different mysticism and consciousness philosophies. “It wasn’t a big, popular or trendy thing to do at the time, but I was 14 and just did what my mother did… Releasing tracks like ‘Meditation Will Manifest’ and ‘Higher States of Consciousness’, people looked at me as being this deeply profound spiritual guy, but I never really thought about it in that way, even though I’m really into repetitive, transcendental and meditative rhythms. I don’t do drugs, so I never really had another outlet to get into alternative states.” – Josh Wink (taken from recent Mixmag article).   

‘Meditation Will Manifest’ is pure Wink in its hypnotic and powerful force.  
 
“‘Meditation Will Manifest’ is quite rightly regarded as a classic track in the R&S catalogue. It’s one of the finest examples of acid house that we’ve released in our 30-year existence and it still sounds fresh today. We’re so glad that the original DAT tape has been found and that a whole new generation can experience it.” – R&S 
 
“It is exciting to see that a track that I made over 20 years ago is touching so many people once again. With DJs like Nina and Ricardo playing it recently, people have been wondering what it was… It makes me happy that the track still sounds relevant and still does its damage on the dance floor. We got in touch with the guys at R&S and decided to remaster the original and release it, as it has never been released digitally. Luckily I was able to my find the original DAT in the studio and we were able to make this happen." – Josh Wink

Token is pleased to announce Metabolism, the sophomore album from Sigha. The LP marks James Shaw’s third release on the Token label following his singles Christ Figures and Our Father. Metabolism represents an arrival: the artist offers his definitive statement on a production aesthetic that has been in development over the last few years.

Shaw’s work as Sigha has always placed the listener at a centrifugal point that invites a clandestine hypnosis rather than an abject hysteria. Cavernous low ends fixed firmly and effectively in a mono space tether the music to the body, while exquisitely executed white noise patterns and crystalline pads warp and hiss around the stereo environment. This keen ear for distinction within the frequency spectrum acts as the central theme on the LP.

Metabolism encompasses a power dynamism that departs from the explicitly greyscale finish found on his more conceptual work as Sigha and as A Vision Of Love for Guy Brewer’s Avian label. Though elements of Metabolism maintain a driven, corrosive quality, each searing sequence or mordant drum machine hit occupies its own space. On high-energy dance floor moments and abstract tracks alike, Shaw’s approach to distortion is one that sets out with an objective to separate components rather than to bind them. This creates a matrix of aural stimuli that remain heady and inherently propulsive, but are realised in a fashion more akin to high fidelity sound design than processes traditionally associated with the techno genre.

The record possesses a powerful musicality beyond this acute attention to form and structure. In the past, Shaw’s productions have often married high-energy drum work with subtly shifting minor keys spread around the sonic periphery. On Metabolism, emotive leads sit squarely and comfortably in the foreground, and build towards rapturous crescendos that are crisp and omnipresent throughout the mix. These careful layers generate the extraordinary tension that has since become a hallmark of the British artist’s work.

Metabolism is a techno album, but its frame of reference is generous, drawing on the finest facets of the artist’s own varied discography and the wider electronic music landscape. Cohesive and modern, Shaw’s latest work eschews a handful of riffs on a single idea in favour of a multi-faceted, fully realised expression of what the genre can be - it is a vital addition to the Token label’s already enviable catalogue of releases.

Before we join forces with Absolut to bring Nicolas Lutz to London's Pickle Factory for a garage, breaks and dubstep set, we're getting a fresh perspective on local crew Toi Toi.

Collaborating with them as part of the Alternate Cuts series was a no-brainer for us here at RA. Their ethos of exploring music through its purest form has lead them to producing unique sound design and engineering in some of London’s most interesting warehouse spaces. Their dynamic aesthetic has produced incredible artwork for this show and we are proud to work alongside Isis Salvaterra, Claus Voigtmann and mix contributor Junki Inoue.

Here across an hour and change we get a tightly woven collection of club heat and earwormy electronics delivered with precision and style.
