Live from Lost Village - Danilo Plessow [MCDE]

exclusive | Tape Hiss - A Veritable Sea

In the sacred chambers of auditory revelation, the budding Euphoric State label, under the masterful guidance of Tam Fallan and Jorge Escribano – the maestros who orchestrate not only the symphony of OPIA Records but also stand as the creators of the celestial distributorship, Lirica Archives – unfurls its latest offering, a sonic tapestry intended to escort you into uncharted emotional realms. This ethereal journey finds its muse in the adept craftsmanship of Tape Hiss, as manifested in the On Persephone's Island EP. 

The inaugural expedition into this sonic sanctum begins with the eponymous track, a spellbinding concoction of sleek House drums that materialize with vivacious allure. Woven into this auditory potion are the celebratory strains of a piano, casting an enchantment that summons the good times in a manner befitting the most refined soiree. 

Transitioning seamlessly, You Are the Light emerges as a more minimalist manifestation, a delicate composition adorned with ample silvery pads. Yet, within its subtlety lies a profound resonance that captivates the senses. 

The sonic odyssey continues with A Veritable Sea, where ethereal breakbeats navigate the auditory seascape, creating a hypnotic ambiance that beckons the listener into a trance-like state. 

Culminating in the zenith of the collection, An Angel of Reason stands as the pièce de résistance. A warm-hearted, mid-tempo opus, it unveils itself as the quintessential end-of-the-night serenade, leaving an indelible imprint that evokes a delightful, gooey sentiment within the soul. Tape Hiss, through the On Persephone's Island EP, not only invites but compels the audience to surrender to the allure of this sonic masterpiece, where every note is a brushstroke painting the spectrum of emotions on the canvas of consciousness. 

In conclusion, the On Persephone's Island EP transcends the boundaries of conventional auditory experiences, inviting the listener into a transcendent realm where time, emotion, and sound intertwine in a harmonious dance. Tape Hiss, under the stewardship of Euphoric State, has not merely crafted a collection of tracks; rather, they have bestowed upon us a sonic pilgrimage, an odyssey into the ineffable depths of emotive resonance. This EP stands not only as a testament to Tape Hiss' artistic prowess but also as a beacon guiding us to unexplored corners of the soul.

Tape Hiss’ On Persephone’s Island EP is out on Euphoric State.

Persephone's Island EP

An Angel of Reason

exclusive | Tape Hiss - An Angel of Reason | Euphoric State

With two major milestones upon us today, we're fortunate enough to be celebrating with one of the finest in electronic music. A new year is upon us and today we also reach a major podcast milestone, to celebrate we welcome none other than contemporary techno legend, DJ Nobu for MNMT 400.

With decades of experience and as founder of both acclaimed party ‘Future Terror’ and record label ‘Bitta’, DJ Nobu has slowly but surely turned from being one of Japan's finest, to one of the world’s most in demand selectors. A great friend of Monument who delivered an incredible closing set at our first ever Monument City Festival in 2023, we couldn’t be happier to be marking the occasion with him. 

For this very special mix Nobu presents a stunning introspective excursion through electronica and deeper shades to celebrate the two milestones.

Infinite thanks and gratitude to everyone who has made this journey over the last 12 years possible; from all the incredible artists we've been lucky enough to showcase to you, our beloved listeners.

Stay tuned in 2024 🖤

Renowned for their boundary-pushing sonic explorations, Klein Zage and Joey G ii  join forces to deliver a captivating fusion of spoken word and electronic beats in their latest collaborative EP, ‘From New Cross To Ridgewood’ inspired by their time living together in South London. Set to be released at the end of March, the EP promises an immersive auditory experience that transcends genre boundaries featuring remixes from Local Artist, DJ Python and Ariel Zetina.
The EP marks a return to the stripped back musical style Sage became known for early in her career on Orphan Records, such as Womanhood EP and the sensational ‘The Sayers’ on the 2022 edition of Shouts. The record effortlessly blends  the ethereal spoken word prowess of Klein Zage with the electronic breaks wizardry of Joey G II.  The duo's ability to seamlessly merge spoken word poetry with innovative electronic soundscapes creates a unique and compelling listening journey that captivates from start to finish. 
Adding to the allure of the EP are the remix contributions from three distinct artists, each bringing their own perspective and style to the project. Producer and DJ of the moment, Ariel Zetina steps up to the plate with an impressive hyper chopped percussive rework whilst Local Artist RS alumni delivers a stellar dubbed out version perfect for any sunrise moment. The EP is then rounded off by cult producer DJ Python, known for his mix of ambient and ethereal production processes creating a stripped back version of ‘A Little Dissonance’.
