Sun Genam & Altjira - Trans-conceptual Dimensions (MZ008)

Outer time, beyond all,
Holds the first equations, the particles,
The opening lines of the grand narrative
Heard words make the meaning;
“Sing we us into existence”
Guiding the change across levels
In land, memory,
And new existence and truth
Playing out instinctively – as abov

Viewing again from the edge,
It becomes fact that everything exists
In patterns, moving in and out of focus
without end.
Return to the formula, the song
Which reminds us the imprint is
Possible only to accept entirely
And know in refusal

Stored in the land,
Veiled knowing to keep and preserve,
to guide and grow.
We start from our own plot points
Carving the lines
Towards outer time.

Releases May 8, 2023

All tracks written, arranged and mixed by Sun Genam & Altjira.

Premiere: Sun Genam & Altjira – Nyunga [MZ008]

A gem-diol is a type of organic compound in chemistry that contains two hydroxyl (–OH) groups attached to the same carbon atom. The term "geminal" refers to the fact that these hydroxyl groups are located on the same carbon, making the compound unique. Gem-diols can be formed through the hydration of aldehydes or ketones and are often unstable, readily converting back to their original carbonyl forms. They play significant roles in various chemical reactions and are intriguing due to their ability to influence the properties of molecules, making them important in organic synthesis.
In this EP by Abo Abo and Spekki Webu, the two DJs and sound artists draw inspiration from the properties of gem-diols, creating unstable and parallel dimensions. Each soundscape invites exploration, offering a dynamic experience that shifts and evolves over time.

This collaboration captures the essence of fast-paced techno, blending organic influences with expansive, textured soundscapes that evoke the vibrant rave culture of the ’90s. Each track features pulsating rhythms and immersive sonic environments, with nods to tekno and psytrance, making it perfectly suited for the dancefloor. The EP invites listeners to lose themselves in the interplay of frequencies and textures, creating an immersive and contemporary dance experience.

The deities have manifested in the depths of the empty space. This space arises in the mind of everyone who has heard their call. All of it is but a play of the mind, its manifestations. Both the creator of the space and the one who observes it perceive this world in their own way. May everyone who dives into this depth discover the truth within and cultivate the incomparable bodhicitta!

cycle0.3 - Formant Value // Aa Sudd

Those who’ve kept their ears tuned to the innovative underground have likely stumbled upon the tribalistic, psychedelic, and focused sounds of Auckland-based producer Eli Høff. Melekan is no exception. Melding traditional psychedelic textures with the deep, introspective palette of the contemporary mental tekno movement, the album constructs a fully immersive world. Synthesised insects chatter, unseen creatures wail, and natural percussive echoes ripple across locked-in low-end grooves, hallmarks of Høff’s hypnotic approach.

Inspired by the bush and doof scenes of Aotearoa and Australia, Melekan feels both ancient and immediate. Its sound suggests a forest alive with ritual: bass hits like the footsteps of larger entities, birdlike chirps flitting through branches, and strange conversations drifting in the wind.

More than a collection of tracks, Melekan is a sonic painting: an ecosystem of rhythm and resonance that dances, breathes, and beckons the listener deeper.

Petals of Nehan unfolds as a sonic journey where powerful and unpredictable movements of sound intertwine with cultural influences and personal sensibilities. Each track shifts in form at times intense, at others restrained yet quietly imbued with an inner strength evoking petals drifting with intention. Through these evolving textures, the EP explores the power of music to bridge the inner and outer worlds.

In the collaborative track “Forsaken Voices” with xato, a flowing current of sound emerges from the merging of sensibilities, leading to a deeper musical exploration.

The EP also features remixes by Sweden-based duo Quit Life, France-based artist Ytem, and Austria-based Kenji Araki. Their contributions bring distinct perspectives shaped by their diverse cultural backgrounds, expanding the sonic landscape of the release.

Animalia's natural evolution into new regions & sounds comes with the introduction of @sub-basics to the label. For the first iteration in a new series of releases by the London based artist, Sub Basics brings his signature blend of minimal UK bass, with prismatic percussion loops & spaced out, psychedelic grooves, meeting a tech-house adjacent score that underpins the release.

Immersive yet functional, the release is versatile by nature, timely and fitting for both the autumnal shift in the northern hemisphere, and the welcoming of spring in Australia.

Animalia would like to acknowledge that whilst all tracks were produced in the UK, the label itself operates on the traditional land of the Woiwurrung & Wurundjeri peoples of the Kulin Nation, and pay respect to their elders past, and present. Sovereignty was never ceded.

Sub Basics - Wavelengths (ANIMA17)

My art carries the intention of clarity through dynamism.
Just as tantric deities embody qualities and deliberately directed energy, so too the essence I place into my music is meant to create auspicious circumstances in the lives of those who connect with this intention.
May it be, in a magical way, that all who encounter this music draw closer to mystical and auspicious moments - moments that become the cause of inner growth and a profound sense of gratitude toward all living beings.

We are back in action. After a few months of silence, the label is again active with a fresh release straight to the dance floor. The protagonist of this comeback is @matteojust, a German multidisciplinary artist who presents a short but powerful EP, designed for DJs and uncompromising dance lovers.

In “bairro bairro”, Matteo fuses the vibrant energy of Brazilian funk with structures and textures typical of techno: enveloping melodies, sharp percussion, and grooves that never let up on the dance floor. A sonic cocktail that exudes party spirit, dynamism, and pure intention to get bodies moving. In addition to the two original tracks that present the EP is an amazing remix by none other than our dear @apeidon__, a tune that has already made it to a couple of Rinse FM shows and is thought of as a straight dancefloor tool.

“bairro bairro” is a fun, versatile, and effective EP. A statement that Noise Pollution Recordings is back... and ready to make some noise

What's a Girl to Do (Upsammy Remix)

Our next premiere is from Georgian based artist @rtnh_live from his live recorded album soon to be released on Lett records. 'Final Session' its a stripped back minimal techno track filled with shifty textures and spacious mood. 

"Sessions" is a collection of live recordings by RTNH, captured in real time during the creation of his performance sound designs. Each track preserves the raw, unedited flow of a live session, where decisions happen in the moment.  Each piece is built on the foundation of looping — not as static repetition, but as a living, evolving form. Through continuous and nuanced manipulation of sound parameters, these loops expand beyond linear time, unfolding with a sense of progression that defies a clear beginning or end.

Recorded: 2024-2025 Tbilisi,Georgia

Listen to "SideQuest Nap (Maoupa Mazzocchetti Remix)" by Meli Mena taken from "POLYT001 "COUGH TWICE IF YOU CARE" fa:act / Meli Mena" out on August 29th via Polytope

Pre-order: https://polytopebxl.bandcamp.com/album/polyt001-cough-twice-if-you-care-fa-act-meli-mena

"Our first Polytope EP welcomes two wonder kids from the European bass music scene: the Brussels-based fa:act and Meli Mena from Paris. They have worked hard to deliver you a 6-track, club-ready opus, with a special collaboration and a remix by Maoupa Mazzochetti.

"COUGH TWICE IF YOU CARE" explores the depths of the hardcore continuum with a special twist from these two talented artists:

fa:act created two dancehall-inspired bangers with his iconic touch: "Wizard Bubble" and "Breeze and Riddim".

Meli Mena has produced two high-energy club gems with break influences and IDM resonances: "Hot Girls Get Sad" and "SideQuest Nap."

They both released the already famous 140 bpm club anthem "Dust Drip," which has destroyed many dancefloors all over the world.

All these tracks got the Maoupa Mazzocchetti special analog treatment; he also gifted us with a strong remix of "SideQuest Nap" from our dear Meli Mena."

On Biotope, @valentinomora ventures even further from the dancefloor, delving into a rich, psychoacoustic realm shaped by modular and spectral synthesis. Built primarily around the Rossum Panharmonium, a module that analyzes and re-synthesizes audio into evolving harmonic clusters in real time, the album conjures an imagined ecosystem, where sound behaves with the logic and fluidity of organic life. Eschewing traditional field recordings, Mora instead sculpts textures and gestures that feel deeply natural yet are entirely synthetic. Inspired by elements such as soil composition, air, humidity, light, temperature, and the chemical properties of both land and aquatic environments and the living creatures that inhabit them, the soundscapes emerge as a kind of sonic biology. The result is a collection of slow-moving, tension-laden compositions that blur the boundaries between physical sensation and abstract design. Biotope unfolds like a closed ecosystem: modular synthesis treated as a breathing entity, shaped by resonance, friction, and organic motion. It embodies a kind of mystical biology, where textures mimic living forms, and frequencies pulse with intent.

This is music to be felt as much as heard, Biotope invites you to listen with your skin, not just your ears.

Valentino Mora - Biotope (Spazio031)

Bluegold steps into the world as a ground for trance-inducing rhythm and collective movement. Rooted in techno but never bound to it, the sound leans toward the psychedelic: loops, atmospheres, and ritual percussion that blur perception and guide the floor into altered states.

The A side comes from Mruda, written during a day of turmoil where conflict and chaos spilled directly into sound. Machines were left to chance, generating unstable pulses that mirror the volatility of the moment.

Archypness takes the B side as a counterweight, drawing the energy inward. His productions move with a meditative focus, weaving rich textures and layered rhythms into journeys that feel timeless yet deeply grounded.

We will celebrate the release outdoors with a custom-built sound system, light installations, and a lineup that embodies this vision — dissolving into sunrise and fog.
