Goldfrapp is just possibly the best pop-electronic band of the last decade.

(FLASH Lab) KLUBNACHT [2023.10.21] Nicolas Bougaïeff

First up in Nicolas Bougaïeff’s ‘EP1’ is 'Primal Express', in which he returns to NovaMute for their next wave of releases with layers of elastic synth lines and rolling drum funk. It’s the first instalment in a three-part series on the Mute offshoot and is a dark but enticing work of heady minimalism featuring enchanting synths darting like cosmic rays into otherworldly dimensions. The psychedelic 'Obviate Thought' then boasts tight and punchy drums overlaid with haunting sounds that pan throughout the mix in tripped-out fashion. Last of all is 'Concrete Love,' a gritty and glitchy techno pumper with mind-melting loops and scratchy synth textures peeling off its percussion as the whole track powers on unrelentingly.
 
Berlin Academy of Electronic Music founder Nicolas Bougaïeff is not only a DJ who has played institutions such as fabric and Berghain, and a producer who has regularly released on Mute and NovaMute, but also someone involved in music technology. He designed the controllers for Richie Hawtin’s Plastikman Live tour, and in 2010 with Hawtin, he co-founded Liine, the company behind the landmark music app Lemur. Now, the Berlin-based Canadian Bougaïeff drops another artfully crafted and hugely potent techno EP with ‘EP1’, setting the tone for the stellar releases that will follow.

PREMIERE: Nicolas Bougaïeff - Obviate Thought (NovaMute)

'Anthem For Those Who Know' by KÁRYYN

Lyrics:
To oblivion
Existence may be, rearranged
The lines on my face
Are a map to where I’ve been
An admission, a condition, I would envelope
So no one knows

I will be the collider
You will be dark matter
I will not be afraid
You may be possibly
I will be the collider
You will be dark matter
I will not be afraid
But you may be possibly lost
I will be the collider
You will be dark matter
I will not be afraid
You will not be either
I will be the collider
You will be dark matter
We will not be afraid
WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED EVER

We won't be lost to your violence
We will not be silenced ever
I will not be lost (will not be afraid of your
violence)
We won't be lost to your violence
We won't be lost to your violence
We will not be silenced ever
I will not be lost (or afraid)
We won't be lost to your violence
We won't be lost to your violence
We will not be silenced ever
I will not be lost
We will not be silenced ever
We won't be lost to your violence
We will not be silenced ever
I will not be lost
We will not be silenced ever

Anthem For Those Who Know

'Shore Break' is taken from Terence Fixmer's forthcoming album, THE PARADOX IN ME – set for release digitally on 21 June 2024, alongside a limited edition 12” album sampler – 500 available worldwide: https://mute.ffm.to/terencefixmer-theparadoxinme

THE PARADOX IN ME

Shore Break

The brand new track from JakoJako's upcoming EP, Segmente. Released 26 July 2024, via Mute's techno label NovaMute.

JakoJako’s unmissable live performance has fed directly into the new EP - all four tracks originated in her live show - giving the EP a propulsive urgency imbued with her distinct take, described by RA as “fragile techno written in the key of wonder”.

Berlin based modular synthesist and DJ JakoJako, aka Sibel Koçer, has shared the first track from her new four-track Segmente EP for NovaMute, set for release on 26 July 2024. We had a pleasure to ask her few questions regarding her new four track release.

Segmente EP

PREMIERE: JakoJako - Flux [ NovaMute ]

Welcome back from an unexpected month off, we are here with episode 68 of AIR, an interview podcast series with a different theme each episode. 

This month, I’m joined by producer, DJ, and live performer Sibel Kocer, also known as @jakojako_live. Having spent years toiling through manuals, books, and working at the famed synth shop Scheidersladen, Sibel eventually bought her first eurorack and the rest, as they say, was history: her productions are rooted in not only her love of storytelling, but her expertise as a modular specialist. 

On stage, her live and DJ sets are journeys, too, sometimes ambient, other times driving techno, but always thoughtful, hypnotic, and full of texture thanks to her uniquely changing live and studio set up. Sibel recently left her job at Schneidersladen to focus on making and playing music full time, and we sat down together to discuss the career ebbs and flows of an artist on the rise.

AIR 068 / JakoJako

Pretty Youth is our first release after it being a stand-out track from our year of sweaty but intense and crazy fun live shows this year. The song is a blend of raw grit and pure sugar about our experience of the erratic highs and gross lows of the idealised ‘coming of age’ experience. Woo!


Music, composition, lyrics, production by Clara Bach & Anders Bach

PRETTY YOUTH 

Feeling everything and nothing 18 
Doing acrobatics to be seen 
Pretty youth lied to me 
Cos you’re a scammer a con-er and a thief thief thief

Scammer con-er thief thief thief 
Time you took it away from me 
Scammer con-er thief thief thief 
Time you took it away from me 

Coming of age 
Not what it seems 
I was climbing up a tree 
Now I can’t get it up 
Because the sertraline had me 
When I was 
When I was 
Being younger 

Scammer con-er thief thief thief 
Time you took it away from me 
Scammer con-er thief thief thief 
Time you took it away from me 

I’m gonna calm down for a second 
Calm and collected to be around 
AHHH!

Milk teeth bite back
Will I though 
Will I though 
Really fight back 
Smokescreen
Might crack 
When I grow 
When I grow 
Milk teeth
Bite back

And I won’t stop living if 
Nothing is happening 
And I won’t stop living if 
Nothing is happening
And I won’t stop living if 
Nothing is happening 
And I won’t stop living if 
Nothing is happening

Catwalk into the pool
I’m a hot sun 
Boom boom going faster 
than a shotgun
Can't take back all of the things
That you did and done 
God forbid 
Imma bouncer back 
All love <3

Boom boom boom 
Zoom zoom zoom 
Vroom vroom vroom 
Scammer con-er thief thief thief 
Time you took it away from me 
Scammer con-er thief thief thief 
Time you took it away from me

Mute was founded by Daniel Miller in 1978, and since then has signed and developed some of the world’s most influential recording artists – including Goldfrapp, Liars, Moby, M83, Erasure, Depeche Mode, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Laibach, Yeasayer and Richard Hawley – and become home to a crop of emerging talent and recent signings such as Cold Specks, Polly Scattergood, Big Deal, Beth Jeans Houghton, Josh T. Pearson and Apparat.

Whilst maintaining a firmly eclectic roster, from the earliest days of The Normal, Fad Gadget and DAF through to the techno era with artists such as Plastikman / Richie Hawtin and Speedy J, and to the present day with electronic artists such as Diamond Version and Maps, the label has always been a champion of electronic music.

Mute is also home to the catalogue of a host of seminal artists such as Can and Cabaret Voltaire.
