exclusive | Tape Hiss - An Angel of Reason

In the sacred chambers of auditory revelation, the budding Euphoric State label, under the masterful guidance of Tam Fallan and Jorge Escribano – the maestros who orchestrate not only the symphony of OPIA Records but also stand as the creators of the celestial distributorship, Lirica Archives – unfurls its latest offering, a sonic tapestry intended to escort you into uncharted emotional realms. This ethereal journey finds its muse in the adept craftsmanship of Tape Hiss, as manifested in the On Persephone's Island EP.

The inaugural expedition into this sonic sanctum begins with the eponymous track, a spellbinding concoction of sleek House drums that materialize with vivacious allure. Woven into this auditory potion are the celebratory strains of a piano, casting an enchantment that summons the good times in a manner befitting the most refined soiree. 

Transitioning seamlessly, You Are the Light emerges as a more minimalist manifestation, a delicate composition adorned with ample silvery pads. Yet, within its subtlety lies a profound resonance that captivates the senses. 

The sonic odyssey continues with A Veritable Sea, where ethereal breakbeats navigate the auditory seascape, creating a hypnotic ambiance that beckons the listener into a trance-like state. 

Culminating in the zenith of the collection, An Angel of Reason stands as the pièce de résistance. A warm-hearted, mid-tempo opus, it unveils itself as the quintessential end-of-the-night serenade, leaving an indelible imprint that evokes a delightful, gooey sentiment within the soul. Tape Hiss, through the On Persephone's Island EP, not only invites but compels the audience to surrender to the allure of this sonic masterpiece, where every note is a brushstroke painting the spectrum of emotions on the canvas of consciousness. 

In conclusion, the On Persephone's Island EP transcends the boundaries of conventional auditory experiences, inviting the listener into a transcendent realm where time, emotion, and sound intertwine in a harmonious dance. Tape Hiss, under the stewardship of Euphoric State, has not merely crafted a collection of tracks; rather, they have bestowed upon us a sonic pilgrimage, an odyssey into the ineffable depths of emotive resonance. This EP stands not only as a testament to Tape Hiss' artistic prowess but also as a beacon guiding us to unexplored corners of the soul.

Tape Hiss’ On Persephone’s Island EP is out on Euphoric State.

exclusive | Tape Hiss - An Angel of Reason | Euphoric State

In the heart of an enchanting realm, there existed a hidden sanctuary known as the Garden of Solitude, where the boundaries between reality and music intertwined and a harmonious symphony of solitude flourished. The custodian of this ethereal shelter was a gardener of the soul, a musician with a heavy heart carrying the weight of the world. The garden, under the custodian's musical supervision, became a refuge for introspection; its existence was a closely-kept secret among those who devoted their lives to the spirit. The flowers, infused with the rich treasures of the Garden of Solitude, became a captivating force where art and nature coalesced, creating a tapestry of serenity. The music, an enchanting tale immortalized in sonic spheres, was not just an auditory experience but a voyage through space and time, where listeners could lose themselves in the enchanting beauty of the Garden of Solitude. The compositions, like a key, unlocked the gateways to inner reflections, allowing those who ventured into the garden to explore the depths of their thoughts and emotions; like a magical portal, inviting everyone to experience the transcendental connection between sound and solitude.

HDSN - Garden Of Solitude (NBAST078) [PREVIEW]

On the Belgian imprint’s third release, Just Begun bring together some of the country’s finest talents in a dazzling display of razor sharp rhythms, soaring melodies and infectious groovin’ atmospheres.

Just Begun, the brainchild of producer and DJ John Parm, began (to pardon the pun) life with the EP "End Of The Line" last year following with the track "Hurry" few months later., and helped to set the precursor for what would follow next. This new VA release, aptly titled ‘A Journey into Belgian Modern Grooves’ brings together a veritable who’s who of the Belgium dance music scene, which has received many plaudits in recent times for its array of genre pushing, melodically dexterous and rhythmically on-point music makers. A chapter point if it could be said, an accumulation of all that has come before in recent times, a celebration of the fabulous work being done throughout the land which has left a long lasting mark on the wider contemporary electronic music landscape. Covering genres such as House, Broken Beat, Nu-Boogie, Disco and pretty much everything inbetween, there’s a lot of ground to cover - but this VA leaves no stone unturned, and the listener is all the better for it.

Rounding off the EP is LA native and underground House devotee Juliet Mendoza who re-shapes ‘YOU&ME’ into a thumping 4/4 workout, primed for the late hours when the strobes come out.

Robin Wylie
What Is Zero? 
Ritual Poison

Belfast’s Robin Wylie has long been twisting up heavy, analogue bass sounds, winning the ears of the likes of David Holmes along the way. After debuting on Ritual Poison with the swirling, hazy breaks of ‘St Paul’s’ on last year’s ‘Pharmakon’ compilation, he arrives full force with four-tracker ‘What is Zero?’.

Build around booming subs, bubbling acid and ecstatic female vocals, the title track highlights Wylie’s knack for dancefloor fusion, peak time electro seeped in subtle rave flavours. ‘Pulse Track’ draws inspiration from somewhere between 90s techno and bleep, adding a modern percussive drive and bass weight. The electro-breaks of ‘Shadows In The Sunlight’ serves up a journey of tension and release, building then breaking in waves of 303. And ‘Kid Dynamite’ earns its title, low end exploding under heavy breakbeat house riding crunchy acid, whoops and warping effects.

Artwork come from label favourite Alec Jagodzinski, whose 2000 AD-inspired imagery accentuates the EP’s sonic evocation of resistance to an encroaching dystopian future.

What Is Zero ?

Yesterday

ARMLESS KID debut on Groovence with a Fully Loaded 4 tracker infused with garage house and exploring all the RAW sounds of house music, pay tribute to that fast-paced and uninhibited era of Paradise Garage, with a touch of novelty and daring. An avid digger, his music, filled with boundless energy, are tailored for dance floors and never fail to put everyone into a true state of trance!
