Astroenergoterapia Psychosonoryczna

Wiktor Stribog - Nauka (Superkasety Records)

Premiera! Albumy tygodnia w Radio Kapitał!

Powraca projekt MIR, tworzony przez multiinstrumentalistę Bartosza Webera / @/bartoszweber oraz perkusistę Miłosza Pękalę. Album zatytułowany “MIR (II)” zawiera muzykę luźno inspirowaną powieścią “Solaris” Stanisława Lema oraz filmami krótkometrażowymi z początku wieku. Artyści poruszają się w obszarze elektronicznych improwizacji, jednak ich poszukiwania sięgają dużo szerzej, od post-rockowych pejzaży, przez avant-jazz, po niepokojący minimalizm. Kompozycje trzymają w napięciu i dostarczają wielu zwrotów akcji. Premiera 11 października w labelu Tapes Webala > https://tapeswebala.bandcamp.com

It’s been a hot moment, so we can’t wait to finally announce the next EP on our Awkwardly label, “a hack is a foul“ by @dadan11.

Safe to say he’s been on our radar for a while, so we’re mighty excited to welcome the Wrocław-based producer on AWK005. After a strong debut release on his co-owned SPLOT imprint, an equally solid LP on Regime Brigade as well as contributions to various compilations, dadan is back with his signature moody, bass-bin shaking sound.

Hitting the sweet spot somewhere between dubstep, grime, breaks and ambient techno, these 4 tracks provide a somber yet seductive quality that invite the listener to get lost in a hazy amalgamation of stylistic elements. Rest assured, this combination of low end and rhythm heavy explorations contains the right formula to cause some damage on the dance floor.

DJ picks ups and plays by: DJ Voices, EMA, Ehua, Kassian, HAAi, Ila Brugal, Jaye Ward, Mani Festo, mi-el, Nala Brown, Om Unit, Peder Mannerfelt, Pinch, Stenny, Sybil, Tom Ravenscroft, Toumba et al.

AWK005 is set for release on Friday, October 20th 2023. As always, many thanks and much love for everyone’s support and feedback!

PREMIERE: dadan karambolo - salamandra [Awkwardly Social]

Drawing from both mythology and scientific speculation, TAMTEN continues his meticulous world-building efforts on the first ever full length LP that follows up the story of “Diamentowa Sutra”.
Loosely based on the structure of an antique Greek tragedy, “End of That World” blurs the lines between both genres and narrative techniques. Even though intended for deliberate start-to-finish listening sessions similarly to a modern kraut / psych rock opera, the infectious grooves and mutant dub echoes beg for arcane communal dancefloors in the most unexpected settings.
TAMTEN never hesitates to borrow from seemingly unrelated sources of inspiration. Luckily, instead of boasting with cultural literacy, he’d rather invite us to join him on an odyssey through eras, ideas & often unnoticed or forgotten works of others to make our own connections and interpretations. Continuing his exploration of balearic, new wave and esoteric tropes in Polish music, he also manages to reference philharmony and world renowned pop icons.
The same approach is reflected in the ensemble of friends and artists contributing to “End of That World” with instrumentals, rearrangements, samples, voices and drawings. The personnel includes some of the prominent talents of their generation like Pejzaż, Freux and Ivan Bayor, acknowledged for introducing Polish and international audiences to obscure and yet club-ready sounds.
Utilizing both classic & modern gear, TAMTEN develops a palette of his own. New age ambiences are coupled with contemporary downtempo chuggy beats while coldwave-inspired dark disco pulsating synthesizers evoke a feeling of mystery and suspense with corresponding organic textures and ritual toms and clanky percussions.

LEVITATION

Mary Yuzovskaya’s vinyl-only Monday Off imprint delivers the sixth instalment of its various artists series, calling in a crew of talented artists to explore deep, cosmic anomalies and soothing modular soundscapes. Kicking off the compilation is Poland-via-Berlin artist Blazej Malinowski, a true wizard with sound, whose ‘Ocean’ sees rich textural synths crash like waves onto driving low-end. The Gods Planet, Svreca’s Semantica, and 012 artist is followed by Nonplus+ and Blank Slate’s Michal Wolski, who delivers ‘Essence’, a track boasting squelchy sequences, subtle acid and swirly psychedelia.

‘Black Moss’ is next, a minimalistic tripper by Xhato that expertly weaves rolling synthlines into sturdy drum work. It’s a constantly evolving, deep space adventure before Milena Glowacka closes the EP with distant, foggy wastelands and dubbed-out hypnotics in ‘Dystopia’. Volume 6 of Monday Off’s compilation cements itself as another must-have collector's item for those venturing into the trippier side of techno.
