releases

'Noone St. Encounter' and all associated works were created, produced and compiled on unceded Aboriginal land. General Merchant acknowledges that it operates on stolen land, belonging to the Gadigal and Wangal people of the Eora Nation, and we pay our respects to Aboriginal elders past, present and emerging.

‘Noone St. Encounter’ sonically depicts ex-terrestrial-isms that stem from an obsession of other worldly life forms. Rxex utilises modular synthesis to create atmospheres that are both biologically familiar and alien to the human ear. Probing beyond the outer orbits of the sound-solar system, Rxex incorporates psy-fi fantasy bass-abductionism to create a unique and varied sound that is informed by a distinctive modular synthesis. 

The release features an excellent remix by Naarm based Homelander that operates as a more functional dancefloor track to round out the EP.

For its 3rd compilation, Blue Night Jungle dives deeper into the french mental music scene. Enhancing the underground metamorphosis of a new way of conjuring trance within electronic musics, it welcomes a batch of new artists (Beatrice M., RAVL, Vanda Forte, Paul Rêve, Tampo, Orchid, NOGE, Kick21, Solma, Khey Mysterio, Cléo II) but also spare room for known figures of the label (Smogo, Drawbridge, Trois-Quarts Taxi System or Boskøw). Going from deep tribe adventures to dark DnB paths, jungle and trance experiments, it gathers this whole new "mental" scene of french parties for a long journey through the depths of unknown jungles.

WofK001 | Releases September 17, 2024 

Our debut project has arrived; a CD with contributions from L'Uzure, Production Unit Xero, Solatz, Ena, gi, Matter, Dina Rocaille, and Khimeîra. 

This curated primer presents raspy layered textures, windy tonal ephemera, and rapturous melodic outbursts to demarcate “outsider” electronic music as the label’s clear focus. Not intended as a collection of songs but as a singular listen, the CD is pockmarked by dirty sediment, subdued motifs and abstracted musical strucutres - avoiding neat or direct story-telling. Instead, nauseating polyrhythms stretch together a wide pastiche of styles; abstract ideas repeat themselves into shape; and far-reaching horizons converge into a hazy, electric cloud of energy. 

Despite broad influences and stylistic impressions, the music remains cyclic - always coming back to a shared cadence, an overlapping feeling that's urgent and tense but never overstating the obvious. 

L'Uzure - Haiku [@luzure]
Production Unit Xero - Opaque [@pux]
Solatz - Ötzi [@solatzz]
Ena - Spirito [@ena-iai]
gi - weir [@gistrung]
Matter - Hue [@existfrom2020]
Dina Rocaille - Seuvrage [@dinarocaillemusic]
Khimeîra - The Rosace and the Keystone [@khimeira]

Compiled on Gadigal land.
Mastered by Rashad Becker, at Clunk Studios.

Eunoia - or beautiful thinking - a fourth DE RIO compilation reflecting on the accelerating life pace where sound assists the mindwork and gravitates ideas borne across fragile imaginations. A massive 17-track сompilation is featuring rising stars and boundary-pushing talents, artists whose creativity is determining the sound of the future electronic scene like Feral, Pianeti Sintetici, Vel, Alpha Tracks, and many more, a novelty substratum in its spectral variety. Loyal to endless sonic exploration for the dance floor of the present future, this release showcases the multi-dimensional soundscapes at the core of techno’s nonconformist spirit. Hear Aratak’s rhythmic pull of absolute traction, dive into Dwelve13's comforting bass and avant-garde piano, feel Answer's bleep integrity, lose yourself in Plate's circular patterns, journey through Wild Moss' psytrance reformations, and slow down for a second with Lenti Sistemi’s leftfield basis and fine-detailed ambience.

With this second EP ever released and his second offering to the Electric Shapes' catalogue, Smogo dove deeper into the areas of the subconscient. With a blend of hard rhythms and dangerous sound designs, gathering both his love for Science-Fiction and organic textures, this new EP reflects more than anything his attraction towards ultramodern mental music, well reflecting the ongoing european enthusiasm for fast paced techno, buzzing soundscapes, ethereal harshnes, citing A Strange Wedding, Raär, Solma, Trois-Quarts Taxi System or Sole Massif as his source of influence. Calling this wave as "psytech", it conjures on the dancefloor a bestial spirit made for dance, self-abandon, communion with the others.

premiere: Smogo - Mind Poison [Electric Shapes]

SQ1: Okareh
A constellation of sonic spells shaped by intuition, rhythm, and deep time.
Beginning with a breath of the cosmos, a slow unfolding of space and feeling;
drifting into grooves that ground and enchant, where the earth speaks in pulses.
Rain speaks in rhythms. Shadows pulse.
Time folds inward, reshaping the senses.
