@soundsofkaspiann
 
On the latest instalment of his VALA series, Finnish techno explorer Kaspiann tunnels into heads-down, mind-warping rhythm tracks of the highest order. Alongside his appearance on respected platforms such as Delsin Mantis and Optic Portal (alongside Spekki Webu), VALA affords Kaspiann the space to explore the depth and breadth of his sound with steely focus. The four tracks on VALA 4 are teeming with tactile textures and intricate detail that feel familiar and abstract all at once, perhaps best described by the titles that indulge in a little Finnish word play. 'Sammalkämmen', literally translated as 'moss palm', feels like a fitting reflection of the spongy mid-range matter on the opening track, while the humid, dense atmosphere of B1 cut 'Suohunaja' could indeed conjure a sense of 'swamp honey'. From 'Sienikieli's tunnelling rhythmic intrigue to the intricately arranged, expressive percussion of 'Niin Vain', Kaspiann continues to broaden his vocabulary within the language of deep techno, triggering ineffable sensations from carefully sculpted sonic forms and strapping them to incisive rhythms.

VALA 4

This 8-track album delves into a deeply organic sonic journey, blending together tribal influences, hypnotic sound design, spacial atmoshperes and mesmerising rhythms to craft a rich tapestry of styles and subtle ambiences. 
Each track emerges like a ritual : immersive, textured, and timeless.

Release date: May 2nd, 2025

In Echoes of Fractured Light, Anechoic explores the fluid interplay between light and shadow. Each track becomes an auditory representation of light as it bends, scatters, and reflects through space and time.

Subtle shifts in illumination are mirrored in the evolving sound design, tones morph and shimmer, rhythms fracture and reassemble, and layers of sound drift in and out of focus like fleeting shadows cast by shifting light.

Every piece captures a moment of change, sound refracting into something new, expanding and contracting like breath across vast sonic landscapes. Natural reverberation plays a key role, much like how light lingers, fades, and reflects in its surroundings, shaping the atmosphere in unseen ways.

Anechoic’s In Echoes Of Fractured Light is a careful study of distortion and detail. Across five tracks, light becomes sound: bent, scattered, and reflected into immersive compositions that blur orientation and dissolve structure—soon to be released via Lyon’s Cosmic Wave Records.

For more than a decade, Yard One have played the long game, releasing smart, often under-the-radar records that quietly land in the bags of selectors who value depth over hype. With Neuroglow EP, the duo circle back to their home base, Tact Recordings, not with nostalgia but with the same grounded confidence that’s defined their output since the beginning. “Synapse,” our premiere for today, captures that ethos in full: precise, atmospheric, and unafraid to sit in its own mood without forcing a payoff.

“Synapse” feels like a mood caught mid-transition, weightless but restless, like something unfolding in slow motion under strobe lights. There’s a glassy clarity to the pads, stretched just wide enough to pull the track into dream territory, but underneath it all, that modular sequence keeps things twitching, alert. And then come the strings, not ornamental, but emotional, like a voice without words. In “Synapse” Yard One are sketching atmosphere with intent. The track lingers in your memory because it hits that strange, rare note between melancholy and movement.

‘Neuroglow’ EP has already gotten great feedback from DJs worldwide and will be available for purchase on July 23.

PREMIERE: Yard One - Synapse [Tact Recordings]

Each August, something unusual happens on the quiet Åland Islands: a geodesic dome in the middle of the forest becomes a portal. For two days, the Kokong Festival transforms the Dome at Stallhagen into a living instrument, home to ambient drift, off-grid techno, experimental electronics, and the kind of late-night moments that only occur when sound, light, and space align perfectly. Now in its fourth edition, Kokong has outgrown its status as a local curiosity. It’s a full-bodied experience, complete with live sets, spatial sound design, visual installations, movement performances, and workshops, crafted by Kulturföreningen Ström, the nonprofit organization that has built Åland’s most refined sound system and a wider platform for electronic and electroacoustic arts. This year’s edition (August 1 to 2) will feature around thirty acts in total, mixing top-tier Nordic talent with handpicked international guests, all performing just a few feet from the crowd.

“This summer’s edition will be the biggest yet,” says Johan Grönlund, Chair of Kulturföreningen Ström. “With more international acts, a handcrafted high-end sound system, and greater investments in the visual experience.” Among the headliners are Icelandic dub techno veteran Exos, Swedish modular explorer Andreas Tilliander, and Norwegian legend Mental Overdrive, joined by artists from Austria, the Nordics, and a strong showing of Åland’s own community of producers, DJs, and tinkerers. But Kokong’s ethos extends well beyond the stage. Free hands-on workshops with synth makers give festival-goers and local youth a chance to build, tweak, and discover. A performance by the Urgrund collective will blend movement, sound, and storytelling into a cohesive experience that defies easy categorization. Kokong moves at its own pace, quietly growing into one of the Nordic region’s most thoughtfully curated electronic festivals.

As part of this feature, we’re thrilled to share an exclusive preview from the upcoming KOKONG Festival Vol.1 Sampler, a compilation capturing the spirit of the festival through sound. The track is a collaboration between Swedish electronic mainstay Andreas Tilliander and Croatian-Swedish jazz innovator Goran Kajfeš. Built on a steady, hypnotic groove, the piece lets Tilliander’s textured synth work stretch out like smoke, while Kajfeš’s trumpet drifts in and out like a distant signal. It’s deep, psychedelic, and quietly ecstatic, exactly the kind of alchemy that feels right at home under the Dome’s glimmering ceiling.

PREMIERE: Andreas Tilliander & Goran Kajfes - More Than Worlds (Kokong Remix)

Twisting and turning, like a live animal dancing through the air, Helium (Live Extract) gives a sense of movement and looseness that only a live performance can give. The flexing of voices and the undulating elements drifting and snapping back into form keep the ears attention locked in. Initially the track starts off fairly simple with a few textures and drum patterns, drawing listeners in, before adding in a spiraling melody and marching kick drums that ratchet the energy up. As the track progresses, various melodic synths are sprinkled throughout that add a sense of unpredictability.

Forthcoming on the Dutch imprint, Wabi Sabi Audio, Elisa Batti & Jorge Fons have come together for the next release, titled Yugen (幽玄). Focusing on creating a variety of rhythms, the two artists have finished off a 5 track release, that ranges from Ambient, to disjointed club time stompers.

Expect to see the Yugen released on August 22nd, via Bandcamp.
