Species-1

A2 LINN ELISABET / POISE (A COLDER GAZE)

Artist: Uun
Title: 'You Can't Have Both'
Label: Ego Death
Cat. #: ED007
Format: Vinyl & Digital
Release: 20th May,​ ​2024
Pre order: https://egodeathlabel.bandcamp.com

Sounds From NoWhere is pleased to premiere a new Uun' gem on 'Ego Death'.

Uun returns to his imprint Ego Death for its 7th release. 
The vinyl version is pressed onto a special marble red and black color variation created specifically for this release. 
The artwork is printed on a partially translucent vellum lithograph.

“The more things change, the more things stay the same. 
The progression of the digital space from a place where like minded individuals can get together over shared interests has gone the way of everything else in the modern world. 
There is money to be made after all, and data is worth more than gold. 
All around us are rent-seekers, hucksters, and those who seek to profit from what was never theirs.

Platform Decay is the beginning of the end result. 
Everything that is unique and interesting is being flattened for maximum palatability and consumption. 
It is what the advocates like to call content. 
We have given all of ourselves away, so that we can be advertised to. 
All to chase the algorithm; the black box where art, culture, and creativity enter and only an amalgamation of disparate nothing exits.

Atrahasis is the genesis, the original story, the prime instance of human creativity and storytelling. 
We sell ourselves sight unseen for the simulation of a social experience. 
You try to walk the tightrope between physical and digital but soon realize you can’t have both. 
However your engagement is up which is the upside of losing everything. 
Reaching into the past you finally realize the meaning of the lamassu, the double aspect. 
Only to be forgotten again as you are consumed by the ouroboros.

The project is made whole by the evocative artwork of Ryote, who brings the themes together in a unique visual style. 
The beautifully printed vinyl insert lithograph print represents the digital tomb of social media, with the label art depicting the mythological double aspect.”

Premiere: Uun - You Can't Have Both [Ego Death]

Premiere of 'EW5' by NX1, taken from Shaked Ear EP forthcoming on Earwiggle

It's our great pleasure to welcome Spanish duo NX1 back onto the label following their Earwiggle debut in 2019. Much has changed in the world since then but in the world of NX1, Samot and Surit's commitment to tense sonic combat remains resolute. The "Shaked Ear" EP is some of their most accomplished work to date, and a fresh follow-up to their recent debut album on Nexe Records. Raw acid lines, earth-shaking bleeps, fizzing distortion, murky vocals and a melange of sweeping kick patterns are just some of the key ingredients on display over this crushing 5-tracker. Once again finding a unique place within hard-edged rhythmic techno and industrial, with an atmosphere all of its own, NX1 are back to shake the dancefloor to its core. Comes on black marbled vinyl in a stickered outer sleeve.

Label: Earwiggle
Artist: NX1

Opening with immersive noise textures, the record takes shape with the stern syncopated bass drum pressure of “See The Land”, echoing Portion Reform's classic The Supreme Negative. Disciplined cuts such as “Angel Cycle”, “Stand Still” or the remorseless title track further demonstrate the unstoppable forward momentum with which he’s been tearing up clubs across Europe. The final “Eyes On You” cloaks the listener with dream-pale atmospheres of drones, feedback and mutated vocals that almost feels like the embodiment of a gritty realization, of a burdened history that inescapably lingers within. It rounds off an EP that is clearly rooted in the rich history of extreme styles but never takes its eyes off the dancefloor. Recommended for everyone who’s into all the hard, uncompromising stuff!
