Welcome to the 2nd Unmasked Theoria.
Guest: Khemia Records.

🕯 The second guest on Unmasked Theoria, our new interview series focused on vinyl labels, is Lee Adams, founder of Khemia Records, Kaos London events and a long-time friend of ours at Unmasked. 🕯

Talking about music in the current situation feels difficult and strange at times, but it´s after an interview like this that one realises how resourceful music people are, and how life inspires creativity in our world, no matter what. 🌹

2021 marks the 5th anniversary of Khemia and the 18th of Kaos, and it felt just like the right time to have a chat with their founder, Lee Adams and talk about the past and the future of his projects.

Together with the interview that came out yesterday, Lupus, another great friend of both ours and Kaos, has prepared for us a mix made just of tracks released on Khemia. In this journey you will find a taster of the eclectic spectrum of sounds that make Khemia Records one of our favourite London labels.

The mind based on the depth and vision of the world around us evokes its own answers to the questions posed by reality.
A techno duo from Sopot, Poland - OTHK, looking through the prism of changes in the world and regular lockdowns, created their vision of the world described as a cool, condensed and intense version of the response to the stagnant environment. Ice, frost, darkness and fear are not only the items of nature, but also the vision of an inner journey into the depths of impenetrable thoughts, significantly influenced by the current situation in the world. 
The vision of this EP is framed by hypnotic techno with great intensity, thus continuing the story started by Raroh on previously released EP: "As The Past Would Be The Point At Which Time Was Eternity", we welcome you to another chapter under name: "Unknown Glacier Zone Never Seen Before”.

OTHK in their EP focuses on strong kicks, drifting glacial atmospheres, immediately introduces listeners into a melancholic, full of emotions "unknown timeline" in which we don’t know what will be tomorrow.

Remix from Nternal Bserver is a continuation of an endless and intense trip, after which it's hard to come back to reality. 
Raroh, with his full of space remix, introduces a state of hypnosis and oblivion. This release is full of darkness and nostalgic sounds that are help to discover in us the rush of intense energy.

See these glaciers before they’re gone.

Premiere: Arts Of Techno - Dont Push The Horses [AYR01]

The lack of contact, even between humans, has become in recent days a truly demanding norm. Far away from sitting and waiting for better days to come, Close Encounters as a sub label has always been 30D’s way to gather artists aiming to explore the wider techno spectrum, combining freedom, rhythm and each artist’s particular vision of their sound. We’re now sharing with you the results of the Sixth Encounter, to be released the forthcoming 26th February 2021.
 
Hekum, Jiman, Omnia Vox and Téo Dréan: Four tracks. Four artists. Four ways to resume and to push forward what we may expect from techno in this yet uncertain year to come.
