Never underestimate the power of a good bassline. Mark du Mosch certainly doesn’t. This veteran from the harbor city of Rotterdam let’s his vicious bass line creep up on you from behind on 202 AC Ra. A dark and jacking club belter with clear Chicago roots. The five track EP The Heavens may be his debut on SoHaSo, Du Mosch has been releasing music for over fourteen years on a variety of respected underground labels, such as Moustache, Dekmantel and Royal Oak.

His versatile style draws on sounds that evoke strong mental imagery and a sense of eternity, which clearly shows on the introspective Resonance Delay (She) on the B-side. In which a melancholic melody is supported by muffled slow motion beats.

The beautiful artwork on The Heavens EP is by Joost Stokhof, an Amsterdam based graphic designer who is known for his love for detail. Which makes him perfectly suited for Du Mosch’ subtle and well crafted dance tunes.

In a normal world you would open your EP with the title track. Du Mosch chooses to close with it. The Heavens stays true to it’s name. A harp like melody that washes ashore as foam from a greyblue Northsea that calmed down after the storm. Heaven indeed.

B3 Mark Du Mosch - The Heavens

archipelago represents a new direction in machìna's musical story. These 10 tracks are a transition that is influenced by the artist's switch to a more analogue based set-up, with the modular system forming the basis for a new harmony between vocals and electronic sound. Although it is by no means the finished article, archipelago has been a process, a platform to express the new sounds, textures and emotions of machìna. 

The title 'archipelago' references the idea that each song can exist independent of the whole, but it is something invisible that ties the album together. The concept of each song formed through abstract investigations of ordinary words, and objects. ‘neon' takes neon lights and looks into the fragility of aesthetic beauty. ‘315 Heda' was inspired by a tired old fishing village in Izu, and delves into the irrelevance of history in the now. 'Past' is simply about the memories of a past holiday, and uses field recordings to express the loneliness felt in the streets of Paris. Each song is conceptually autonomous, yet through machìna's visceral vocals and resonating melodies each isolated track comes together to form a whole.
