MRMR001 | Sonic Iterations Vol.1

General Merchant’s latest V/A, Metal Form Suite, explores the myriad corners of Eora’s rapidly developing underground scene. Across the V/A, a packed cast of the area's emerging talent ties together diverse strains of techno, DNB, psy-trance and IDM, with each bearing the imprint of the area's burgeoning identity of bass-heavy reverie and psychedelic flourishes.

We are glad to present the debut LP album from an artist within the Organic Signs family: @solmadj . One year ago, the French artist planted the seed of this sonic journey with his set at The Memoir by Hypnus Records. Now, that seed has fully blossomed, unveiling a collection of new creations. Eight tracks that define his sonic universe, where DnB, halftime, and tribe intertwine in an atmosphere of hypnotic textures and pulsating synths.

The journey begins with Wetlands, drawing us into a mist-laden landscape where solitary birds glide through the sky and the dense humidity clings to every breath. In the dim light, a deep, enveloping sound spreads through the air, merging with electrified gusts of wind. As we move forward, distant echoes of other life forms emerge, thriving in the space between water and earth.

The first heartbeats stir in Mud. Continuing the path set by its predecessor while subtly layering new elements, the track immerses us in mystical soundscapes, unlocking portals to uncharted dimensions. Percussive fragments, scattered across the stereo field, begin to surface tentatively, paving the way for Clay, where the hypnotic progression deepens.

With Spores, the rhythm evolves into 4x4, maintaining the ethereal essence that has permeated the album from the start. Percussion elements phase in and out, leading seamlessly into Trimitic, a stripped-down yet profound exploration of minimalist Tribe.

The album builds in intensity, reaching its peak with Fungal Network, an electrifying burst of energy crafted to set the dancefloor ablaze. Then, The Consciousness of Plants slows the pace once more, introducing a whispering voice and a synth that oscillates fluidly, pulling us into its meditative sway.

The journey culminates with Reset, where the tempo eases, and the narrative comes full circle. The echoes of birds return, this time illuminated by the clarity of a new dawn. With Liquid DnB rhythms and textures, Solma concludes his debut album with a farewell that lingers in the mind, resonating long after the final note fades.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Monosym - Dove [MRMR001]

This collection of music sits naturally as the first release on murmurs, exhibiting some of my favourite sounds and artists from around the world. It explores various moods of dance music, setting the sonic foundations of the label and giving a glimpse of more to come.

~ Through the furthest reaches of our feeling and thought, whispers of familiarity bring solace. It is this essence which simultaneously restricts and expands imagination. Let the adventurous nature of our beings embrace that which was, is and will be, in all its unfamiliarity. For only then can we comprehend the auditory murmurs of time. ~

Caldera - Sink Again (Sonic Iterations Vol.1 / murmurs)

TOMO - Saloram 
Abo Abo & TOMO - GEON [ALC011 / Alliance]

Produced by Tommaso Andorlini aka TOMO
Mastered by Baptiste Langlois aka OTON
Artwork by Marco Maldarella
Released by Alliance from Brussels, Belgium
Release Date: July 25th, 2025

Two resonant voices from Florence’s underground converge in this powerful collaboration between Abo Abo (Daniele Carcassi) and TOMO (Tommaso Andorlini) —  The co-founders of the DE RIO collective and record label both deeply rooted and active in Italy’s experimental electronic scene well  known for pushing the limits of tribe and mental sound presents their first LP on the Brussels based imprint and collective Alliance.

Abo Abo’s multifaceted practice moves fluidly between clubs, theaters, and DIY spaces, blending academic machinery with raw underground energy that oscillates between precision and chaos. Whether through DJ sets, performances, or installations, Abo Abo treats sound as a living, evolving material — a fluid architecture shaped by space and raw impulse he explores as a territory in constant mutation.

TOMO brings a vision shaped by fast-paced rhythms, glitch minimalism, and tactile sound design. His sets are deeply physical, polyrhythmic journeys where IDM, deep techno, trance and post-tribal textures bleed into one another. Every element in his sonic landscape pulses with tension — somatic, spectral, alive.

Together, they craft an immersive, borderless language where loop-driven hypnosis meets granular abstraction. This LP on Alliance Club bridges their worlds: club energy and sound research, intuition and structure — vibrating between movement and stillness.

Introducing OTON - H3KDP4 [ALLIANCE]

Fuelled by an endless fascination with sound in all its forms, OTON has spent over a decade navigating the vast spectrum of electronic music through producing, mixing, mastering, and DJing — with live performance at the heart of his explorations in all sorts of mental and hypnotic techno.In 2021, he launched Alliance Club, initially as a platform to share his own music with a growing audience. Today, the project has evolved into an independent collective, party series and imprint, known for its integrity and support of alternative artists and scenes. Alliance Club now holds residencies at some of Belgium’s most iconic institutions, including Botanique, Fuse, C12, and Listen Festival. After previously exploring sonic territories characterized by breakbeat rhythms, psychedelic textures, tribal drumming, and raw mental energy, OTON unveiled his critically acclaimed LP, New Forms of Silence, in March 2025. This landmark release marked a decisive and profound shift in his artistic direction, signaling a new chapter in his sonic evolution. This autumn, OTON is set to return with its highly anticipated sequel, New Forms of Silence 2. This new offering delves even deeper into the introspective and resonant side of techno, embracing dubbier elements while demonstrating a clear reverence for the genre's classic roots. Yet, OTON continuously pushes the boundaries of sound design, infusing each track with his unmistakable signature, all released under the Alliance Club banner. 
Human Lessons premieres H3KDP4 from the release.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Jörmungandr - An Offering (Presented by Eastern Distributor) [HbA-21]

Amniote Editions resurfaces with the HbA capsule, a dual release pairing the debut album from Hasvat Informant and his Intellagama moniker with a 21-track digital compilation, that coils through ambient, IDM, experimental, techno, trance and beyond.

Refraction of Light Vol. II gathers 21 artists linked by place yet divergent in expression, charting a fluid passage of moods, drifting from first light to nightfall.

The compilation’s framing draws from its title: like light refracting on the horizon of a long drive, it bends shifting sounds and perspectives into a shared vision shaped by distance, connection, and the landscapes in between.

In the same way, Amniote Editions’ capsules provide fertile ground for music to evolve — nurturing divergent practices, experimental forms, and cross-genre encounters. Refraction of Light Vol. II extends this lineage, binding artists through place and possibility, and echoing so-called Australia’s role as a cradle of creative life within its worldwide snakeweb.

10% of profits from this compilation will be donated to Palestine Australia Relief and Action (PARA) [para.org.au]. PARA help Palestinian migrants and refugees live safe, happy, and fulfilling lives in Australia.

Conceived on the land of the Gadigal peoples of the Eora Nation, the project acknowledges the traditional custodians of this country, paying respect to elders past and present, and recognising that sovereignty was never ceded.
