The first Electronic Emergencies release of 2021 is by Chris & Nogi, founders of the legendary Shoc Corridor. It reflects our love for minimal wave, simply called new wave back in the days. Released as a 10-inch, 'Autumn Rituals and Refugees' consists of eight tracks taken from 4-track-cassette tapes recorded in 1985-1988. Three of these are collaborations with avant-garde voice artist Sharon Gal. The original tapes, which had to endure a journey from London via Israel to South Africa, were beautifully restored by Ruud Lekx, who was able to retain the original sound and atmosphere. The cover art of 'Autumn Rituals and Refugees' was designed by Niels Vrijdag, exhibiting the DIY-mentality and modern living-fantasy of the music from the eighties.

Autumn Rituals and Refugees

Chris & Nogi - Autumn Ritual 1 / EE034

Smoke hangs low where the body was,
The air remembers what I’ve lost.
A slow undoing, quiet and clean —
I fade between the ash and dream.

Ash communion — no rebirth,
Only weight and hollow earth.
Breathe me once, then let me go,
The fire knows what I don’t know.

Hands like ghosts along my skin,
The heat retreats, the cold steps in.
Every prayer dissolves to sound,
And I fall through what I’ve found.

Nothing left to sanctify,
Nothing left to signify.
Just the hum that stays behind.

The light is gone, the signal dim,
The smoke curls back — it speaks again.
If this is grace, it has no name.
I breathe it in, and stay the same.

Funky Sobrietas - Maria | Rubber005

A1 Maria
B1 Sunny 

Pre order now: https://clone.nl/item49733.html

Funky Sobrietas is the slick love child by Leuk en Ko's Jan Duivenvoorden and Richard Van Den Bogaert. Intended to be a poppy German Italo duo for a wedding act amidst the squatting scene of The Hague, the music they produced was of more value than just an one-off. From a shoebox stacked with dodgy recordings two tracks were selected that offer you the full Funky Sobrietas spectrum. 'Maria' is the anthem for the one you would die for, with unpretentious vocals and echoes but catchy synths nonetheless. 'Sunny' is six glasses of champagne later when the wedding is on it's flipside, with a nifty dry bassline and quirky synths. Comes in opaque white vinyl and (again) beautiful riso printed artwork, pressed in limited amount (123) for all the die-hards out there.
