@europainflames

europa delivers a masterful podket that genre-hops, groove-twists and binds together familiar well known references with unknown otherworldly feelings. 
while every track feels completely separate from the one before, the mixing and curation notes a strong grip on narration and cohesion.

such as in his own productions, europa marries the sentimental cheesy beauty with the hard and rawness of the club.
do you remember what it felt like stomping and crying at the rave?

ALL TRACKS WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY FLORENT HADJINAZARIAN IN ST FONS, FRANCE.
INSPIRED AND DEDICATED TO "MELANCHOLIA DER ENGEL"
MASTERING BY DANIEL MUMBERSON

Bringing on the cold rush, seven tracks, all 3:33 long, Hajj’s sound is among the most distinctive in his field on ‘No Soul, No God, No Devil, No Existence’. Influenced by Marian Dora's 2009 film 'The Angels' Melancholia', the album is perhaps best defined by the stark negative ecstasy of its highlight ‘Drag Me Into the Void’, presenting Hajj as a master of collage-like structure, in possession of a compelling grasp of atmosphere. It stands out from much of the contemporary french music we’re aware of for its oblique rejection of club muscularity in favour of more unusual, weightless pressure and suggestively gestural arrangements. That’s not to say it’s not ripe for certain moments in the club, it just doesn’t give them readily.

Beginning like Biosphere doing dankest road rap with DJ Lostboi (anyone checked that Nedarb cut lurking on Æ’s Bandcamp purchase list yet?) in ‘Our Lady of Darkness’, he holds an immaculately dark-but-lush appeal from the K-hole nightmare of ‘Loosing U 4 Ever’ to the cosmic plangency of ‘Vox Tenebrae’, meting out discomfiting intro rap like a fantasy Croww x Ronce in ‘Heaven’s Calamity’, and like Spectre x Pan Daijing in ‘Do U Remember Bein Born’, while his ear for saliva-inducing textures comes to fruition on the voyeuristic vortex of ‘Burning Illusions’, perfectly distilling the cold rush on an original mix of the glorious ‘Drag Me Into the Void’.

Taken from SBKT064: sideproject - sourcepond
Release date: 30th May 2024

Following up from work on Björk´s 'Fossora', Icelandic trio 'sideproject' debut on SVBKVLT with their new full-length album 'sourcepond'. Taking influence from the fog-covered wetlands of their native island, sideproject transfigure influences from the low-end frequencies of grime and bass music, and reshape it into a haze of transient-smeared beats accompanied by breathy synths that grow ever wetter till they slip beneath the surface tensions of their harmonic stratum. Compared to previous output, 'sourcepond' opts for a more concise approach to their music, stacking up their influences of experimental electronic, Icelandic punk and contemporary club music, and builds a sound that oscillates between melodic hooks and experimental rhythms. Each track carves through the sensuous material, pulling the listener into the dank sourcepond as though magnetic forces were guiding a bird's beak towards misty horizons.

++ PRESENTATION ++

Scores +°-  glyphs to sounds !

+°°+--+
Scores is a compilation exploring musical notations and how they can be interpreted as sounds. People have always tried to translate sonic expressions into visual cues that could be archived, passed down, and transformed back into music. 

From symbols to numbers, grids, staffs, figures or abstract shapes, several languages have been developed and continuously questioned to improve the ability to retain the emotion and meaning sounds can convey - what lies behind the veil.
 
What if this time, the notation would come beforehand?

+°°+--+
The project unfolded in two phases. In the first one, visual artists from the Global URL Nation could propose one sheet of music score, free of interpretation. They were invited to play with musical notations and explore what it would even mean.
–
It welcomed chaggrin, Eurrope, M4X1US, MYEN, s1m0nc3ll0 & Ziyiz for 6 sheets


+°°+--+
In the second phase, artists from GUN could pick one sheet and create a track trying to follow it as much as possible. It invited them to question music as a physical object, with its shapes, colors, textures and layers with the following :

__How is the overall composition? Are there any axis or lines that could be interpreted as a timeline or a melodic scale?
__How many discrete elements are in the image? How are they laid out?
__What are the shapes involved?  What is their scale? Do they have sharp or blurry outlines?
__What are the colors/textures used? How do they relate with each other in terms of tones, contrasts…?
__How are the different elements layered on top of each other? Are they superimposed or do they merge in some way?
__How would they translate them in musical terms, such as textures, notes, structures, timbres, rhythms, dynamics? 

It welcomed Bademjan, Baje Nunca, C+Vis, Capiuz, Clair X, C.T.A.A.M.  Ecovoron, Epiphagi, HeedLess, Mambo Kahn, migu, POL100, Yau Hei ASJ & Ziyiz for 14 tracks ranging from ethereal scorescapes to hyperstimulating scratches. Sounds and shapes weave together, blurring the boundaries between the two media to create one whole entity

+°°+--+
With Scores, we invite you to seek the music that can be hidden in our surroundings, to decrypt and hear the phantom scores one can find in every shape, every color and every little visual detail __ open your ears and see the sounds, sometimes music lies in a simple fold of clothing

F3. Ziyiz - Skies Inside (Ring The Bell)

Sami Baha’s third album, Mistarget, marks the inaugural entry for Amel’s catalogue, a new- generation label he co-founded in 2024 promoting a non-sectarian approach to what being a label is about. The EP distills Baha’s diverse influences as a globetrotter. Eclectic but effortlessly digestible, Mistarget blends dreamy synth backdrops and hip- hop adjacent beats with techniques borrowed from the post- clubbing world Baha is close to. Featuring his signature style of acute refinement-meets- unfamiliar detours, Mistarget is an exercise in sonic detournement, shaping familiar sounds into new forms. Club atmospheres and crescendos alternate with moments of repose, weaving intricate textures and palettes into an unpredictable sonic kaleidoscope. 

Reality kicks in with Hunt’s synth stabs and frenetic drum patterns, paving the way for an almost claustrophobic melody and Baha’s signature deeper- than-life bass progressions. 

An almost glam riff coming out of nowhere, dissolving as quickly as it came. Pressing, haunting drums. A flute, sampled screams. A synth refrain comes and goes, only apparently without a pattern. Mistarget, Sami Baha third Album’s first single and title track, feels like being in a chase —An aetherial, deconstructed take on trip hop sensibilities meeting trap bravado. 

Cutting through the calm, Sato is a triumphant aggregation of noise and pixelated drums, where the purest underground rave attitude meets a deconstructed take on techno’s most familiar tropes. 

Step into Mistarget world. A tapestry of ambient sounds in Passages opens up the record. A lost fragment of a soundtrack for a film that never existed. 

Spiraling vocal samples drive Mistarget’s most willfully raw moment, Dogru. An interplay of guitar and drums that is Baha’s most evident nod to the beat-making side of his practice. 

Bakar Feek, featuring Vocalist Almaazz feels like an alt- acoustic take on an 80s Istanbul midsummer neo-pop dream. 

With Aml, we are gently rocked back to Baha’s beautiful dream-esque arrangements,a rainy-day combination of glowing, airy synths, stuttering percussion, and a relaxed downtempo arrangement.
