Tonto - Moa [CB07]

A deep-diving sonic essay swinging the pendulum betwixt wiry dub, UK bass fragmentation and dembow-derived mutations, the third volley from Worship comes courtesy of French producer, Eszaid, whose name shall ring a bell to lovers of L.I.E.S. and Collapsing Market. Beaming raucous signals from deep down throbbing subaquatic rifts, "Indraic Cut" gets the ball rolling on an eerie, downtempo dub tip, setting the focus on an intricately woven web of menacing reverbs, spooky melody and convulsive drumwork. A zombie-like dancehall and jungle hybrid running the gamut from robot-operated Caribbean skank to reconfigured bursts of Source Direct-style percussive rage, "Zmej" is a master exercise in style when it comes to shifting from full shot to exploded view in a flash, sure to get that dizzy-high sensation flowing across the room.

Steel-clad and ominous, "Ophis Dub" implements its own smouldering, gunpowder-scented electronic grammar, like the untamed brainchild to Deep Medi, Autechre and Basic Channel. Flush with textures and envelopes to wrap your ears around, Eszaid's music treats us to a proper DnB-adjacent brainwash but in its own idiosyncratically, threateningly future-proof way. The fast-changing "Chained" abseils further deep into uncharted reverb-drenched territories, this time laying further emphasis on the mutative nature of drums themselves and the abstract-leaning FX he coats them under, eventually hatching in a Rubber Johnny-esque whirlwind of sonic assault. "Kronstadt" rounds off the journey on a slo-combusting junglistic note, moving upstream towards a Metalheadz heyday kind of headspace with its processed drums lashing and gigantic bass ripples tsunami-ing down the ravers' spines to effervescing effect.

@watching-airplanes
@banlieuerecords

Four years after their acclaimed album PSYOP, the London/Vilnius based duo Watching Airplanes is back on Banlieue Records with the four tracker "Elusive Still EP". 

Leaving aside PSYOP's cybernetic electro-funk and futuristic aspects for a deep and nostalgic opus, Watching Airplanes bequeath to whoever will found it, the touching manifesto of two souls being connected for the last time. Through 4 humble and elegant pieces, they yield a delicate bouquet of illbient and dub-infused ambient-techno, flourishing as a wistful tribute to friendship and good times.

Release date: November 21th on Bandcamp

PRE ORDER BGSC2309 
https://bigsciencerecords.bandcamp.com/album/w-is-for-wobble

Since its inception in 2019, Big Science records welcomes Warzou's first personal release in early 2023. The LP will feature nine dub/industrial/rave tracks, in Compact Disc format. 

This colorful release, in a transparent case, is a tribute to rave compilations, sound systems and social committees. Because if many influences can transpire from this record, Warzou was built with Acid, House & Techno, Bass and Dub productions, or even Down tempo and its industrial feeling. "W is for Wobble" is a generous record that allows to introduce the meticulous work of W.
This music have been played live in 2021 at Brasserie Atlas (Brussels), META (Marseille), Blockhaus DY10 (Nantes), and Hors-Jeux (Toulouse), and was recorded, edited & designed at Big Science Studio in Lyon in 2022.
	As a producer (EPs on Nous Disques, Kump & Mystery Booms, and has made several appearances in recent years, on labels like Air Texture, Macadam Mambo, or Vastechoses), deejay (LYL, Noods, Le Sucre 2014-2016 / Ambassade Club 2017-2018), or designer (Big Science, Common Ground, Grame CNCM...), Warzou has been quietly evolving, and doesn't stop with NVST to press and spread inspiring creation.
