Temple Rat, the musical alias of the artist hailing from Chengdu, Mei Yuxin, has unveiled her highly anticipated debut EP, 'Composition of Air,' a captivating exploration of ambient and tribal experimental sounds released under the esteemed Thai record label Siamese Twins. Among these gems, 'Dreaming of Electric Sheep' is a mesmerizing piece that transports listeners to a misty early morning at a train station.

'Dreaming of Electric Sheep' begins with an air of mystique, as if a ghost train has arrived to pick up passengers from the station. The atmosphere is palpable, enveloping the listener in a hazy ambiance. As the track progresses, a captivating and beautiful melody emerges, like rays of sunlight filtering through train windows. The melody illuminates the journey, guiding us deeper into Temple Rat's sonic landscape.

Temple Rat masterfully employs a low kick drum, reverberating subtly in the background, resembling a heartbeat that pulses throughout the entire track. The rhythm serves as a steady foundation, guiding the listener along the sonic railway. In the latter part of the song, an arpeggiated melody slowly fades in, evoking a sense of anticipation and excitement akin to arriving at a desirable destination. The feel-good vibes this melodic element creates are infectious, leaving the listener with a warm and uplifting sensation.

With 'Composition of Air' marking her debut EP, Mei Yuxin showcases her unique artistic vision and talent for blending tribal elements with experimental soundscapes. Released today, May 30, via Siamese Twins, this EP promises to transport listeners to unexplored musical realms.

PREMIERE: Temple Rat - Dreaming Of Electric Sheep [Siamese Twins]

A1 Nihilist – Amino Acid
A2 @softcoresoft – Borealis
B1 ADSX – Magnetic
B2 @idabux – Acidmania
Digital Bonus: ADSX – IDS

Dresden-based DJ and producer @AcidAdams collects four acid monsters, both from the glorious nineties and from a multi-layered present. The result is a record that dives deep into acid wonderland and bridges the gap between scene’s veterans and the new generation.

After Acid Adams discovered two forgotten acid tracks from the early nineties while digging for new music, the plan for this compilation slowly matured. While it was meant to be a tribute to every bird’s favorite genre, it shouldn’t be just a showcase for older tracks. Therefore, two new tracks were added to join the tracks by Nihilist and ADSX which have never been released on vinyl before. Each of the new productions is inspired by one of the older tracks, not in the sense of a remix or edit, but as a kind of homage to that particular squawking analog sound we all know and love. The energy and pace of these four unique tracks reaches from ambient to dance floor focused bangers.

According to the circumstances of scene and society at that time, the two older tracks were produced by (cis)men. That’s why, it was especially important to Acid Adams that the new tracks were produced by flinta* artists: softcoresoft is a DJ and producer from Canada, who has already released on Lobster Theremin. With Ida Bux, a native of Bautzen who now lives and works in Berlin, we connect the dots to a younger generation that is getting back into analog production setups. Both artists have in common that they have dealt extensively with the oldschool sound of the 90s in shaping their own sounds.

To round off the release properly, Saxony based illustrator frieedland has designed a matching sticker in the typical 90s style. And for those who can't get enough of acid: There's a digital bonus track by ADSX.

Mizar — a track about the cold and the endless vastness of the starry sky. It came to life at the end of the holiday season, after a visit to the new Planetarium — a place where stars seem close enough to touch. Simple melodies and rhythms in an "Aphex Twin on a budget" style — like a signal from the far end of the galaxy: distorted, perhaps, but still resonating with something important.

There are so many giants to stand on the shoulders of, but these 22 are the ones Track 23 needed the most. EFMW Physics and AGI brought us this work. This is the history of thought about thought, set to music.
