It is a work of the Tokyo-based voice performer and pianist, Keiko Higuchi, and the Rome/Berlin-based sound artist, Cris X. Lost and coming into a cave, the breathing of each other can be heard in obscurity. The found scarlet "primodia" in the unlit world is icy cold yet hot. Like a burning coal concealed with care, the calm pathos, however, sealed in their stirring sound, are going to "melt".

Keiko Higuchi is a vocalist, pianist, performer residing in Japan. She has started out playing improvisation when she was in the united states with a band named "Saturnalia".

After she came back to Japan in 1998, she has made some tours with the butoh dancer, Imre Thormann and the cellist, Yasumune Morishige, and also have worked with various musicians and groups. Her work is not only limited to her improv. vocal work, but she also works as a singer with the pianist, shin-ichiro kanda,where she does more of a "conventional" way of singing, her solo piano/vocal work, and as a group/ unit, she works in DUEL (Mitsuru Tabata, ASTRO, Kelly Churko and keiko higuchi), KYOHANSHA (isshee on bass, keiko higuchi on drums), etc, there are many units she has been in. As an improviser, she has performed with many musicians/ groups in and out of Japan.

she also works as a writer, photographer, vocal teacher and so on.

This fantastic release is the most club focussed music Pletnev has ever produced - the excellent punchy guitar riffs and shamanic rhythms on ‘Red Shoes’ reminds you of a run to catch the setting sun. It’s another spellbinding and rock-laced disco track that oozes grit and rawness.

PREMIERE: TIEMPO DE MALDAD - ABUSADORA [CONTROLLA]

In the fitness studio a lycra-clad, sweat band-adorned crowd readied themselves to sweat away the stresses of the day. In single file they made their way into the room, greeted by the loud vibrations reverbarating from the speakers in each corner. The windows of the room slowly began to cloud up as bodies began to writhe around the room, losing control in time to the rhythms of the music. There was never any clock watching during these sessions, this was a different kind of work out.

The second instalment of the Sameheads’ bi-annual compilation series puts the spotlight on the artists who frequent the Berlin-based "bar/club/playground/space/collective/cult/whatever’s musical mavericks". The EP features tracks from An-i, Franz Scala, Alexander Arpeggio & Marlene Stark, Epsilove & Ohlandy, Anklepants and Umlaut! who deliver a bunch of oddball bangers.

Odopt once defined their music as 'peak time bangers with a twist', and it's easy to grasp why. Their tracks have the kind of propulsive energy that can send any dancefloor into a frenzy, but the way they build them couldn't be further of the usual big room schematics. In their universe, the sounds are strange, the samples obscure and the structures unexpected. Risky music made to be felt, not thought. EBM if the E stood for experimental. A big part of this vision was cultivated at the Denis Simachev Bar in Moscow, a 'punk and kitschy' spot where Grisha and Ivan spent countless nights playing music, inviting friends to perform and testing all their new productions. The bar was, in their own words, 'the heart of a city'. The nucleus of their Moscow. Sadly, it closed its doors last April after 12 years. 'Sociopath EP' is a sort of sonic testament of the venue. Its three tracks seek to capture the spirit of a place that served as a huge inspiration for the Odopt's sound, and listening to them it's easy to understand what made it so special, even if one has never been there.

PRÈMIÉRE: Odopt -  "A49" [Hivern Discs]

Absolute madness unearthed by Paul Ebhart and Florian Stöffelbauer aka Heap for Wiener Brut's third release Chicago-meets-Vienna-vibes - music way ahead of it's time produced in the 80s by short-lived formation Aktionskunst Gerasdorf aka Athletico Kunst Gerasdorf, a project that is well known for it's contribution to the legendary Viennese sampler ‚Die Tödliche Dosis'. TIP!!!!

808-driven beats programmed by René Radikal (R.I.P.) backing Melanie Delval's tender voice, with multiple guest musicians (e.g. Fritz Grohs) rounding things up and adding their spice to the laidback jams alongside stand-out musical heavy hitters. A composition of sound you never heard before.

Club sounds till midnight are back here. The newest episode was recorded by Psychotropin in the first hour of the season opening night.

Zero Hour 007: Pyschotropin

Kiev is one of the oldest cities in the world. The city has gone from periods of greatness to periods of darkness which incidentally 
could be a similar way to describe this new ep by Kiev resident ID UA.
The title of the EP seems to have a fun connotation at first glance but don't be fooled by this, the moods are quite different and
change rapidly in this one.
Preorder : https://calypsorecordsmx.bandcamp.com/album/baile
From the percussive and rythmic elements of "Confusion" to the happy and quirky vocal samples of "Baile" to the psychodelic guitars 
of "Shlemazow", this up and coming producer will grab your attention and have you travelling all over his world and beyond. 
Thomass Jackson then brings a squeaky acidic bassline to his remix of the title track which will surely be a perfect party starter.
Welcome to Kiev. Welcome to ID UA's world.

Throbbring Gristle and Psychic TV are a huge part of all my adolescent inspirations and imaginery. I was attending to many of their gigs around Italy and Europe (including also related projects like Coil and Chris & Cosey)from the end of the 90's till last year.  Death is maybe not the end, but from today we are definitely more alone in this collapsing world.
