011 / 36 mins runtime

Overtime at the office. Smile. Co-workers talk behind your back.

Lixer and Splash Soldier Splendid mumble, scream and narrate the 9-5 routine.

Tales of class issues and discrimination are being force-fed through arcade- and cotton candy machines. Kermis.

Their voices glide and sink into oversaturated soundscapes of daily news, empty words, and bland, oily meals.

Violently sweet, sonic patchworks of life in the matrix emerge.

The government watches.

[Circling the Monopoly Board]

A rollercoaster rides through your friendly neighbourhood. All is well. > Barrel roll onto the flipside of trimmed front yards, picket fences and social niceties. Beware of the dog.

£​$​₿ navigate through toxic environments. Camouflaged with masculinity, blending into the shadows, secretly scanning their allies through the checkout. Surveilled. Before they disappear into the feed we catch a glimpse of their sensitive selves.

We sent Agustin Genoud’s “devoiced” (TRR-007) to different artists and asked them to use it as raw sonic material, a starting point to build their own narratives or do whatever they want with it. The result is a collection of remixes, reworks and completely new musical ideas pierced by the cyber-swamp textures of the original piece.

Los Otros (Daniel Ruane Remix)

Marco Colocci is an Italian producer and sound engineer based in Berlin. Learning how to play the contrabass and music theory has initiated the growth of his interest in the techniques of field recording and sound design, as well as his overall passion for electronic music. After self-releasing music during his teens, and later producing for Taiwanese artist Sabiwa from Chinabot, under the moniker Queimada he now presents a debut record coming out on Gin&Platonic.

Built around a concept proposed by Harvard professor E.O. Wilson, Eremocene depicts a future state of miserable epoch into which human species is slowly but steadily accelerating. Characterized by the existential & material isolation that comes from having calamitously extinguishing other forms of life on Earth while intrepidly fulfilling our immediate needs, the future labeled as The Age of Loneliness sees our identity completely transformed.
On the record, Queimada explores precisely the conflict between the tempting ease and a pang of unconfessed guilt in an attempt to capture the ironical relationship they epitomize. The album represents an encounter between different techniques of granular synthesis and field recording. The encounter between the unstoppable and destructive, altogether resulting in a disruptive anthem of the intensifying burden of the postmodern times.

Hyperboloid – CYBERGHETTO

Label: Hyperboloid Records
Artist: Various
Album: Cyberghetto
Release Date: 30/11/15
CAT: HYPR040
Release type: 12” Vinyl – Digital (all formats)

It’s safe to say that every 10th HYPR release we’re going to see a huge compilation drop from the Hyperboloid camp. HYPR040 delivers 21 tracks of pure bass genius laced with grit and ice cream covered smiles. The self-titled “Cyberghetto” inflicts more than just a handful of artists painting by numbers, but a well-rounded group of individuals asserting their experimental crafts.

Hyperboloid are synonymous with picking out the cream of the Grime/Cyber Club/Bass/Juke & Beat scene and this release see’s some new faces that we’re thrilled to discover. Don’t be fooled the usual suspects are still there dropping what they do best.

From star to finish they create a yo-yo effect with their track placement, giving each track a chance to hit you hard with it’s mood and deliberate attempt to make you feel something.

Overall the album shows that Hyperboloid are still one of the most vibrant and forth thinking underground camps on the scene and that you should be expecting a fruitful onslaught of new beats to come in 2016.

"Imagine Mark Fell crossed with "Avril 14th" and you're not far off. But in spite of the generative feel of the composition, it never feels academic or stuffy, instead lilting, inviting and a bit mischievous." (@resident-advisor)

"My Cruelty’s music is the expression of an incredible array of influences coming not only from the musical world going from Jean Cocteau to Björk and is able to build up a uniquely hypnotic sound made of emotions and feelings." (@soul_feeder)

"The Secret Weapon revolves around an icy, minimalistic echo of the piano. A unique and explorative sound that fuses experimental and dance music." (@avyss)

The Secret Weapon (GEN040) by @mycruelty is a tapestry of ambiguous harmony, rolling synth stabs and sparse, syncopated drum patterns. With endless and never tiring reinforcement, slow - or phantom? - template shifts undergo sudden phase transitions: icy house piano phrases undergo a process of mini counterpoint, later on even complemented by acidic permutations. As the boundaries between tracks dissolve, a dance floor ready scintillating grid illusion unveils itself.

@mycruelty about the album:
"My purpose - to create a hypnotic sound, music full of feelings, that gives you a sense. I create my own mythology. You come inside and feel the silence, endure the pain. But it’s not depressive or sad, this pain opens a new door in life, this pain clears and changes, makes stronger. My album is an ode to the love of music, life. Never stop to live. Music is life, this is movement, this is energy, this is dance.
I am a pure stream, I am an open infinity. I see dreams and go to meet them. I see my reflection, the phantom / ephemeral nature of my soul. I transform so quickly that I do not have time to capture my image. I see myself and at that moment disappear, become something else and look at myself again to see who I am.”

BESSA illustration about the cover design
"I am playing with shapes and fragments in different layers floating around the basis - smiley face. These forms exist together and separately at the same time. They are continuously moving and creating certain tension which gives you ephemeral feeling. Because movement is the basis of our life, nature and universe itself.”
