Seismic rec.

Spekki Webu, introflexive cartographer and antimatter conduit, pares back reality for Seismic’s first entry. Patiently arranging meticulous space, complex parts groan and clatter, hushed by whistling icy cosmic winds rising into intense pensive tension. Gargantuan crystalline components inscribed with strange, detailed petroglyphs whirl in mid air, as the cosmic gale whistles around – the slow walls raise without a sound, trapping space and transporting all inwards to nothing and on.

Setting pace with ‘iii9’, we’re brought to the ethereal atmospherics which ache and spasm under the shimmer. Rhythm emerges, offbeat and gated – a lolloping pulse revealed in negative. Pensive harmonics and phasing growls draw out the space and layers, tripping over (into) and unlocking new frenetic pools of energy before the polyrhythms lock, harnessing the pressure.

‘Neurobender’ emerges from dark ambient fog, glowering shifting shades which creak and shudder. Splashes of higher frequency radio static under lean, stretched harmonics. Then a tone almost human, guided by a glitched dubby nod; kicks and clicks ringing off into forever.

Then the titular ‘Kept In Reality’; back up to gallop, the atmosphere thinner here – urgency, a direct transmission about transformation and purpose. Wormhole flow, thrumming interstellar velocity with guttural bass loom and whispering fuzz, the edges notched by the echoed clanks.

Closing with ‘Vessel (Detached Edit)’, which brings new density of layered, warped sonics. Stretched over minor chimes and pads, blossoming growls belie stomping, chattering squalls with sprays of reverb-mist.

The new mutation of Seismic’s transportive event series into record label is marked with Spekki Webu’s ‘Kept in Reality EP’; collecting shadowy, industrial atmospherics and illbient, Spekki taps the frayed and raw fringes of deep tekno and proto-goa to explore charged rhythmic noise – plotting somewhere between early deep cerebellum strokes for unreal assemblies.

BCCO Premiere: Spekki Webu - iii9 [SEISMIC001]

It’s time to embark on the next chapter of extra-terrestrial worldbuilding - the second instalment of Seismic Records is here. Stepping in is sonic explorer Pyramid of Knowledge a.k.a. K.O.P 32. Based in Seoul but born and raised in France, the Beyond The Bridge label head is blending his Tekno roots with an introspective approach to music, carving out a trademark sound led by pensive rhythms and psychedelic atmospheres. With fierce precision and spellbinding force - you’re invited to explore the unknown depths of your psyche as you enter the state of ‘Fusion’.
In all its ominous grace, the journey takes off with ‘CFU’. A kaleidoscope-esque acid ritual is guided by subtle yet uptempo kicks, lifting us into the first phase of the cleansing. Followed by ‘Xer’, where an ancient chant introduces the next dimension of consciousness-expansion. The progression of energy tells us that the higher powers have bigger plans for us - a phase that is entered on the B-side. ‘TV’ surges in tempo and raises blood pressure with an annihilating paradox of the calm and the chaotic. For those who managed to withstand all phases of the occult test, reconciliation is near as ‘Yrots’ strikes down with a mind-warping drum workout for the body and soul.
Enter the heart of a psychedelic odyssey and swirl into the labyrinthine pathways of your ego as you enter the Fusion by K.O.P. 32.

HL Premiere : Radiation Pattern - Merkaba Driver [Flux Collective]

We are glad to present the debut LP album from an artist within the Organic Signs family: @solmadj . One year ago, the French artist planted the seed of this sonic journey with his set at The Memoir by Hypnus Records. Now, that seed has fully blossomed, unveiling a collection of new creations. Eight tracks that define his sonic universe, where DnB, halftime, and tribe intertwine in an atmosphere of hypnotic textures and pulsating synths.

The journey begins with Wetlands, drawing us into a mist-laden landscape where solitary birds glide through the sky and the dense humidity clings to every breath. In the dim light, a deep, enveloping sound spreads through the air, merging with electrified gusts of wind. As we move forward, distant echoes of other life forms emerge, thriving in the space between water and earth.

The first heartbeats stir in Mud. Continuing the path set by its predecessor while subtly layering new elements, the track immerses us in mystical soundscapes, unlocking portals to uncharted dimensions. Percussive fragments, scattered across the stereo field, begin to surface tentatively, paving the way for Clay, where the hypnotic progression deepens.

With Spores, the rhythm evolves into 4x4, maintaining the ethereal essence that has permeated the album from the start. Percussion elements phase in and out, leading seamlessly into Trimitic, a stripped-down yet profound exploration of minimalist Tribe.

The album builds in intensity, reaching its peak with Fungal Network, an electrifying burst of energy crafted to set the dancefloor ablaze. Then, The Consciousness of Plants slows the pace once more, introducing a whispering voice and a synth that oscillates fluidly, pulling us into its meditative sway.

The journey culminates with Reset, where the tempo eases, and the narrative comes full circle. The echoes of birds return, this time illuminated by the clarity of a new dawn. With Liquid DnB rhythms and textures, Solma concludes his debut album with a farewell that lingers in the mind, resonating long after the final note fades.

"Kalpa (recurring dreams)" is a limited cassette edition and digital release by O C E A N I 
oceani.bandcamp.com 

The EP, born from the collaboration between sound artist Abo Abo and the musical collective La Licorice, features three reworks of original tracks from the collective's debut album “Dialoghi difficili (automatic behaviors)”, where Abo Abo reinterprets and manipulates La Licorice's materials through various sound synthesis and processing approaches. 

The process of deconstruction and reconstruction gives new form to the elements, resulting in fresh compositions that maintain an organic connection to the collective’s debut album while embracing Abo Abo's current sonic vision. Each track is a stage in an evolving listening experience; beginning with impact, moving into immersion, and eventually following a more consistent rhythmic line. 

The fourth track, "Kalpa", available exclusively on cassette, is a completely original composition that marks the next evolution in the collaboration between Abo Abo and La Licorice. "Kalpa" brings to life a sonic landscape, a dreamlike vision that features a narrating voice.

EKKEL - DRUM RING SEISIMIC003
Returning to an aphotic minefield of sound - Seismic Records is back with its third release, Drum Ring, crafted by Norwegian producer and Ute Records co-founder Ekkel. Emerging from the forests of Nordic electronic heritage, Teo Bachs - aka Ekkel - channels the raw energy of ’90s progressive sounds into his mind-bending productions. From the studio, his signature blend of breaks and intricate percussion create soundscapes that are as cerebral as they are propulsive. Titled Drum Ring, the EP captures the feeling of a complete mental trip through a narrative of tension, ancient textures, and enchanting melodies.  
Poised with a sense of urgency, the A-side unfolds with a neatly rolling rhythm. Hradec Fog Fever builds a controlled frenzy of percussive elements, with layers stripping in and out, consistently driving the track forward. Slipping into A2, Owl Foot casts a sonic mist, a haze that tentatively creeps forward, flickering between atmospheric dips and shadowy contours. Vocal-cut whispers transcend through the soundscape, shy yet impactful, drawing you closer. It’s a tender introduction to a minimalist, dark progressive journey - a delicate balance of intrigue and mystery, where each sound lingers like a secret waiting to be discovered.
The B-Side strikes with poignant, powerful drum kicks that reverberate through layers of distortion. Drum Ring displays echoes of tension and unease, building a restless energy that urges deeper introspection. Ancient, enchanting tones weave through the chaos, grounding the frenetic soundwaves in something timeless and mystical. Sealing the EP, Endphase begins with faint, distant string notes that offer a fleeting, hopeful moment of rest. Growling chords and textures swirl, edging you to a meditation, only to be punctuated by sharp, deliberate drum patterns, adding a sense of momentum and purpose - a glimmer of light breaking through the mist.
Experience the full cycle of a delicate trip as Ekkel guides you through Drum Ring - a precious and dark progressive journey.
