DJ Savage - Cover-Up [Artaphine Premiere]

Are you on twitter? Do you follow syndae on there? Or eventually me? This twitter show is on every news channel online and it seems to be complete chaos currently. Someone already said, this is done on purpose to make twitter less significant as a social medium. Everyone running off to the Fediverse now? Well, I am not sure. I set up my own fediverse server though, just in case. Always nice to have a private address and home. And all this blue button discussion made me shake my head so hard, I think I lost quite some hair. Time to calm down a bit and return to something really good and enjoyable. Join me with tracks by Dream Cycle (Passive Imagination), State Azure (Light Span), Desensitized (Chaos In Premonition), Onepointtwo (Music for Spaces), Alex Anthony Faide (Watch's End), Blue Is Nine (Far And Wide), Byron Metcalf, Steve Roach, Rob Thomas (Monuments of Ecstasy), Forrest Fang (The Lost Seasons of Amorphia), Bridge to Imla & Volker Lankow (Ambient Chapel. Live at Schlosskirche Rumpenheim 2018).

syndae - episode 644

Eiskarte VIII (Himmel Und Erde) ... not officially released

Artist: Roméo Poirier & The Exposures aka Jan Jelinek
Title: LOVE/HATE
Cat#: faitiche 34
Release: Dec 1st 2023
Format: 7" vinyl only

The vinyl single LOVE/HATE brings together two sample collages on the theme of good and evil. Often evoked and sung about, but rarely in such concentrated, systematic form, these collages present the words LOVE and HATE in a variegated catalogue of articulations. Poirier’s miniature radio play is anything but misanthropic: never before has the message of hate been conveyed in such a wonderfully warm-hearted manner. The LOVE side features a track originally released by Jan Jelinek in 2005 on the Eastern Developments label under the long-forgotten pseudonym The Exposures.

 From the original press release:

Originally intended as the intro to a special edition of the radio broadcast “Abenteuer Forschung” (Adventures in Research) on “sexuality and romance in digital postmodernism”, the composition collages countless “love” samples from the R&B genre. The “collage of digital passion” had a devastating effect, acting as an aphrodisiac that turned the recording session into an orgy. No further details were revealed by the broadcaster. Unfortunately, the programme wasn’t broadcast live so the secret is likely to remain locked away in the station’s archives forever. Nevertheless, Eastern Developments have managed to obtain authorisation for a “toned down” version of the original, providing the listener with a vague idea of the composition’s true impact.

Zobol - Retrofuturism EP is a nostalgic yet forward-looking release that invokes past visions of the future.

It features five original tracks, ranging from upbeat and energetic to more ambient and introspective. Each track is a storytelling journey, exploring different aspects of Electro and Braindance.

Crafted with both analog and digital machines while enhanced by modern production techniques, it epitomizes the main concept of Retrofuturism. The result is a series of warm, melancholic soundscapes where the past meets the future.

Onepointwo aiming from Thessaloniki, Greece -dedicated record collector- is always trying to emulate a musical journey into space, time, memories and frequencies. Influenced from the late 50s electronic experimental sounds, motorik krautrock bands, lush shoegaze melodies and modern electronica as well. Minimal arrangements, abstract and distorted shortwave radio signals, dystopian soundscapes all proceeded from both digital and analog sources with heavily affected percussive sounds. A psychedelic impact can be achieved directly from repetition which is the ultimate challenge for Onepointwo's sound universe as seen/heard on his previous discography Keene (Poeta Negra) / SANS (Lotus Record Shop Editions) and various appearances / remixes in domestic label compilations. 2020-21 found with 3 album releases on the UK labels Miracle Pond, Woodford Halse and Subexotic Records in various formats, live performances/dj sets and lots of positive reviews including Electronic Sound Magazine.
