Swamp

Metacognition - an inescapable loop of observing and analyzing.
A processor, obsessed over order, connection, patterns and meaning. Sort of like a machine with the purpose of rewiring itself through self calibration.
It's a natural occurring mind process, inevitable and possibly infinitely complex.
This EP was created with the intention of bringing to light a couple of mind phenomena for easier understanding of the process behind processing visual and aural information and analyzing how you process it.

Inside exploring metacognition, Pareidolia was one of the first visual tricks I encountered, which is why it's the first in this EP.
Next are res cogitans and res extensa, two opposites to the identity. To be in control or flow freely? Materialism or idealism?
Apophenia deals with a different question for me. Is there a purpose to all of this? To sense patterns that aren't there/connected if looked at from a rational perspective, or to trust your feeling and believe there's something else to all of this that cannot be understood by the limited human perception?

CRUDE Premiere: Innersha - Shmana

Release date: 06 December 2024

BUY:  https://derioflorence.bandcamp.com/album/gem-diol-dr010

A gem-diol is a type of organic compound in chemistry that contains two hydroxyl (–OH) groups attached to the same carbon atom. The term "geminal" refers to the fact that these hydroxyl groups are located on the same carbon, making the compound unique. Gem-diols can be formed through the hydration of aldehydes or ketones and are often unstable, readily converting back to their original carbonyl forms. They play significant roles in various chemical reactions and are intriguing due to their ability to influence the properties of molecules, making them important in organic synthesis.
In this EP by Abo Abo and Spekki Webu, the two DJs and sound artists draw inspiration from the properties of gem-diols, creating unstable and parallel dimensions. Each soundscape invites exploration, offering a dynamic experience that shifts and evolves over time.

This collaboration captures the essence of fast-paced techno, blending organic influences with expansive, textured soundscapes that evoke the vibrant rave culture of the ’90s. Each track features pulsating rhythms and immersive sonic environments, with nods to tekno and psytrance, making it perfectly suited for the dancefloor. The EP invites listeners to lose themselves in the interplay of frequencies and textures, creating an immersive and contemporary dance experience.

Don’t say that I will depart tomorrow—
even today I am still arriving.

Look deeply: every second I am arriving
to be a bud on a Spring branch,
to be a tiny bird, with still-fragile wings,
learning to sing in my new nest,
to be a caterpillar in the heart of a flower,
to be a jewel hiding itself in a stone.

I still arrive, in order to laugh and to cry,
to fear and to hope.
The rhythm of my heart is the birth and death
of all that is alive.

I am a mayfly metamorphosing
on the surface of the river.
And I am the bird
that swoops down to swallow the mayfly.

I am a frog swimming happily
in the clear water of a pond.
And I am the grass-snake
that silently feeds itself on the frog.

My joy is like Spring, so warm
it makes flowers bloom all over the Earth.
My pain is like a river of tears,
so vast it fills the four oceans.

Please call me by my true names,
so I can hear all my cries and laughter at once,
so I can see that my joy and pain are one.

Please call me by my true names,
so I can wake up
and the door of my heart
could be left open,
the door of compassion.


This poem was written By Thich Nhat Hanh,
"Please Call Me By My True Names"

Premiere: Astral Bandit - Anemoia (DJ Hauge Remix) [ASTRLBNDT001]

Amulets curates a selection of forward-thinking electronic producers from around the world, weaving a sonic tapestry of intricate textures, hypnotic rhythms, and spectral melodies. Each piece serves as a talisman—charged with motion, memory, and transformation—offering glimpses into distinct yet interconnected soundscapes.

Dubbed-out echoes dissolve into weightless ambience, while fractal percussion patterns fold into polyrhythmic momentum. Pulsing low-end frequencies tether celestial synth work, evoking a liminal space between the organic and the artificial, the subconscious and the ecstatic.

Across its 10 tracks, the compilation unfolds with shifting tempos and oscillating moods, tracing the contours of deep introspection and kinetic urgency. Amulets is an invocation—a ritual of sound, wrapped in mystery, waiting to be unlocked.
