Konduku (@kondukukonduku) returns to the Delsin Mantis series with an exciting double pack (Mantis 09 + 10) which dives deeper into his remarkable fractured rhythms and light-touch synthesis. Over the course of nine tracks Ruben Üvez straddles the space between introspective headphone trips and hypnotising dancefloor elegance, operating in a liminal zone of fluid tempos, submerged atmospheres and pointillist beats. It's an open-ended but clear-sighted approach that aligns perfectly with the direction of the Mantis series.

On Mantis 09 Üvez follows a progressive, patient arc of energy from the glassy chimes and pin-prick percussion of 'Özlem' via 'Scale's reduced, atonal echo chamber and the half-time prowl of 'Derinkuyu' to the dense, humid pressure of 'Swerve'. Restraint maintains throughout, even as we take in a broad spectrum of the Konduku sound.

Konduku - Mantis 09 (DSR/MTS09)

Animalia's exploration of the lesser known artists of Melbourne continues with the launch of new sublabel, Cirrus, focusing on non-club, downtempo, ambient and otherworldly sounds from local Australian artists. 

The first release comprises of dreamy, non-linear modular improvised soundscapes from Melbourne/Naarm local The Soulscaper, a sideproject of Eugene Pascal, member of Animalia's electronic trio Menage. 

The Inside Voices LP offers a sentimental, familiar musical journey, evocative of the distinctive charms of life in Australia's south-eastern hub. All produced in the northern suburbs of Melbourne/ Naarm, the tracks provide an open window into the studios of the city's deeper side. The LP is a poignant follow on from the musical outputs of Animalia, staying true to the label's deep, cinematic and melodic style.

A: City Whistle
B: Mansion on the Hill
C: Inside Voices
D: Lost, But Not Forever 

Produced and Mixed by Eugene Peloza (Naarm, AU) 
Mastered by Giuseppe Tillieci at Enisslab (Rome, IT) 
Distributed by Clone (Rotterdam, NL)

The first appearance of Mike Jungerius aka Human Space Machine on the Swiss label re:st is an exciting one. As a core-member of the Dutch De Lichting collective where he released most of his well received works before, he now steps out of the beaten path and explores different vibes and tempo's for a first international affair on re:st.
Written and produced during the multiple lockdown months back in 2021, HSM created the Zone EP. It's an adventurous four track project balancing somewhere in the grey space between experimental drum & bass and half paced sluggy rhythms. Bringing high energy with tight drum patterns and razor sharp beats while it leaves enough space to zone out in its deep atmospheres and subaquatic grooves.

A while back, we commissioned remixes from Buttechno and Triš. In light of Russia’s continued invasion of Ukraine, we’re donating all the proceeds from this release to Livyj Bereh, a Kyiv-based group of volunteers raising funds for necessary gear and vehicles, as well as the rebuilding of homes across the regions affected by war. Sustained help is still essential.

Pure Space returns with our final release of 2022, delivered by none other than Zara - a warm light shining from Naarm (Melbourne, Australia).

Crafted in the midst of Australia’s last summer, these tracks capture the blissful and euphoric feeling of warm weather and the potential it brings…

Starting on an ambient note and progressing to drum & bass, the release seeks to take listeners on a transcendental journey to a freaky realm.

We start with Pirr, a track representative of dawn and the new beginnings it brings. It’s an eerie, yet anticipatory feeling lingers in the air as the rising sun diminishes the darkness and reveals the beauty of the landscape. Soft kicks coupled with bird song gently grasp the attention, effortlessly drawing you into the release.

Guitar and reverb drums define the second track, Idyll. Switching the mood to melancholia where the track meanders around floaty vocals creating a gentle fluidity throughout.

Entering the DnB realm, Quixotic combines driving hi-hats, wubs, bass to instigate movement. The floating female vocals carry you through the track guiding you on what feels like a utopian dream.

Synthesised drums are combined with heavy bass, arps and breaks to represent the peak of the journey. A chaotic, albeit warm track with and trippy moments in time.

As the sun sets once again, the arc of the journey ends on acid synths, arps, claps and hi hats on Elysium. Transporting the listener into a sleep, a moment of peace or back down to earth.
