meandyou is one of the most familiar club-night and label names in Manchester. It's ran in some capacity for over 10 years now with its five residents; Herron, Joy Orbison, Juniper, Taber and our next Truancy Volume contributor Lyster, putting together some of the city's most fabled parties and releasing consistently great quality music. While part of a collective, Andrew Lyster stands as a singular figure within the greater electronic music community. His broad selections mean that pinning a certain sound to him is practically impossible. That idiosyncrasy has made him a cult favourite with Manchester clubber's discerning ears and feet. We extremely pleased to include him in the series and we also sat down for a chat with him over a pint or two.

Truancy Volume 224: Lyster

Tala Drum Corps - Parade [Mini-LP]

Vinyl: https://clone.nl/item55835.html
Digital: https://bakk.bandcamp.com/album/parade

Originally hailing from the Dutch eastern border, Utrecht-based producer Tala Drum Corps (real name Tijmen Lohmeijer) provides BAKK six tracks where his love for futurism and nostalgia collides. Coming from an adolescence of modern dance, Lohmeijer continually seeks a sense of bodily movement in his work - an elementary scenic approach that stems from an urge to bring imagination into life. Ditching outer ends where club tracks are often approached too seriously or ironic, this mini-album takes on another route that feels mature while simultaneously oozing a child-like joy. 

On Parade, the listener strolls along a shimmering motley landscape.

Slowly slipping away in a crystal vortex via its vocal, ’Clear Fall’ shows the art of juxtaposition when its panning drums propel the track straight against its own gravity. Setting the tone for exploration, ’Refraction-S’ provide calm pace with its crisp gridlocked snares and melodic sonar pulses. Continuing a path of hypnotism, the album takes a deep plunge with ‘Lake Technium’ - whose rolling acid line hints to the essence of rave without obvious tendencies. On the flip side, ‘Frog Marches’ recalls emotions strongly akin to the LP opener, but walking a darker introvert thread. Spacious drum programming flutters around a haunting ambience on ’Sp00n’ - showcasing Lohmeijer’s ability to create intricate ear-worm structures. The producer offers an energetic closure with the break-inspired club tool ‘Modernity (Poisoned)’. 

All in all, Parade makes up a multifaceted play that appreciates sonic aesthetics of the recent past but re-appropriates those in a daring and dreamy context.

Parade

BAKK014 | Tala Drum Corps – Parade

Amos’ Flat is a three part album by VASE in collaboration with Opal Tapes & INDEX:Records: an odyssey of sonic manoeuvres through ambient, bass and IDM. This trilogy reveals VASE dissecting compositions down to sparse rhythmic explorations, disruptive power shifts and nebulous bass bliss.
So , here we go , the first part from south-american born, Berlin based artist Vase with this open composition -  BV133 w/ Black Snake Whip -synthesis of cosmic and plasticized melodic collages, birthed from the guts of hand built exotic electronics and various audio devices, built from one's own design and heavily modified beyond audible recognition or return. From torn memories of pleasant dreams to plasticine free futursirstic jazz sculptures, wavey electro cuts squealing like rubber tyres and pop hallucinations. 12" record out Oct 25th you can buy here: https://indexrecords.bandcamp.com/album/amos-flat-room-1
