"The EP is called Aureolas, un presente sin ti (Halos, a present without you). The title plays with the image of halos – the way they shine, their circular form, and the idea of cycles closing and beginning again. The record is very personal, about a breakup, and it carries both the heaviness of that moment and the angelic, luminous side of what remains."

Mensik - Heaven Step

Litter front Drum samples the traditional Taiwanese festive piece Chiao Chien Drum (轎前鼓), a ceremonial rhythm performed during temple parades and deities’ processions. B E N N deconstructs and reassembles its percussive essence, transforming the ritualistic pulse into a tense and immersive study of electronic rhythm.

Rather than directly referencing the traditional form, B E N N fragments and reconfigures it—each strike distorted, stretched, and layered over heavy bass frequencies. The spiritual intensity of temple drumming is reborn through digital sound, morphing into a contemporary, club-oriented propulsion.

The title Litter front Drum symbolizes both fragmentation (litter) and confrontation (front). Here, the drum stands on the sonic frontline, reasserting the power of traditional percussion through digital disintegration. What once resonated through streets and rituals now re-emerges in the circuitry of modern sound.

As part of Hakka Drums II, the track continues B E N N’s ongoing inquiry into the thresholds between local percussive heritage and modern electronic expression—where tradition becomes texture, and rhythm becomes a language of transformation.

PREMIERE : Vitaline - Wild Card (Brodinski Remix)

Taken from SBKT073: ABADIR - Kitbashing
Release date: 15th October 2025

--
Conceived as part of an A/V show with visual artist Nicolò Cervello, ‘Kitbashing’ marks ABADIR’s third album for SVBKVLT.

A growing number of people spend an extensive amount of time watching, scrolling, liking, commenting on and sharing content, whilst at the same time feeding a constant stream of personal data to social media platforms. Social media can be fun and informative, or draining and dark. Either way, their algorithms are purposefully designed to lock users in a continuous state of scrolling. The more time spent online, the more desires, interests and emotions are fed into the algorithm for consumerist ends and reality is reduced to a timeline of curated aesthetics.

Using audio snippets from reels, suggested posts, and sponsored ads, sound objects are cut, micro-edited and meshed together into a collage. Tension is built gradually before falling into a release. Rhythms keep expanding and contracting, simulating the pace of random scrolling on mobile devices. ‘Kitbashing’ is an attempt to break the algorithm: subverting the dynamics by feeding on the algorithm instead of only feeding it.

⇯ 𝐒𝐖𝐈𝐍𝐄 𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐈𝐄𝐑𝐄 ⇯ @osheyack and @nahashisalive teamed up for an incredible track called "Le Temps Fou" for the new 42-track compilation by Spanish label and event series @flux-aeterna-968106596

➜ Osheyack about this track: "The track it’s something Raph and I (Eli, Osheyack) made quickly, sending stems and samples back and forth for a few days. The main sample is from the album Le Temps Fou by Marion Brown (1969)." The duo has flipped the saxophonist Marion Brown's music into a totally mad club-hybrid storm in their signature style.

¶ Curated by Yugen Kala, the initiative "Flux" started as a series of monthly events that have consistently acted as a meeting point where diverse musical and cultural paradigms intersect. Flux connects Galicia’s local scene with varied international voices, creating a dialogue that transforms difference into resonance. In this sense, the project can be understood as a living exchange - shaped by an ongoing flux of experiences, sounds, and knowledge - where seemingly disconnected communities are brought together organically.

¶ Over more than 50 editions and 100 performances, this ethos has materialized in an expansive constellation of talent, such as: seminal label founders Kode9 (Hyperdub), μ-Ziq (Planet Mu), Rabit (Halcyon Veil), Mumdance (Different Circles), Fausto Bahía & Mexican Jihad (NAAFI), Kamixlo (Bala Club), and Endgame (Precious Metals); cutting-edge voices from Shanghai’s SVBKVLT, including 33EMYBW and Osheyack; artists associated with Nyege Nyege, such as Ecko Bazz, Phelimuncasi, De Schuurman, and Sisso & Maiko; and Lisbon’s Príncipe Discos, featuring Nídia, DJ Marfox, DJ Firmeza, and DJ Narciso.

¶ To commemorate this trajectory, Flux presents a compilation featuring 42 exclusive contributions from past guests on their new label, Flux Æterna. This compilation stands as both an archival gesture and a statement of intent, celebrating a legacy of reinvention while opening new paths forward.

P̷R̷E̷M̷I̷E̷R̷E̷ 🦛✨ B E N N - 一枝香折 [self release]

Hakka Drums II continues B E N N’s exploration of ritualistic percussion and cultural resonance, weaving samples of Taiwanese temple music, Hakka drumming traditions, and electronic rhythmic structures into a dense, cinematic landscape.

Across three tracks, the EP oscillates between trance-like repetition and sonic disintegration—transforming traditional rhythmic motifs into fractured, breathing organisms. The project channels a primal, almost animistic energy, where each drum hit feels like an invocation, and each silence, a moment of reflection.

The Hakka Drums series serves as an ongoing dialogue between ancestral sound and modern rhythm—reimagining the Hakka cultural identity through contemporary electronic production.
In Hakka Drums II, B E N N deepens this dialogue, using sampled ritual sounds, percussive layering, and spatial manipulations to evoke notions of ceremony, procession, and decay.
Each composition unfolds like a ceremony: immersive, fragmented, yet profoundly physical.
