Sonar's Ghost - Beyond Our Time (Unmastered Preview)

We welcome Solaris to Parallax. His music just seems to strike the right balance between atmospheric, light and darkness to make it work for Parallax.

'City Lights' whispers secret untold stories of lonely walks home after a late night out: The anonymity of urban landscapes, your silhouettes' shadows lengthening in the sallow light of the street lamps, wandering over the cold concrete. The mood changes and opens up. You feel you belong to that moment, exactly there in that grim surrounding, alone, when most of the city sleeps. But are you really alone? Out of the nearby trainyard the sound of a rattling spraycan reaches your ear...

A1 - Solaris - City Lights [PARA 012]

We welcome Solaris to Parallax. His music just seems to strike the right balance between atmospheric, light and darkness to make it work for Parallax.

'...Reaching home you instantly pass out. The pale moonlight and shadows of the flying curtains through the open window cast wild movements on your grimace. You twist and turn from one side to another. Under closed lids your eyes move rapidly. There's no escaping these 'Heavy Dreams'...'

Full release not out before autumn 2022! Limited testpresses available on Bandcamp Friday, April 1st 2022 at 13:00 CEST (for the UK that´s 12:00) via parallaxrecordings.bandcamp.com.

DJ Chromz - Give Me Baby

'Old Empire' closes the EP and shows another dimension of Innercore's sound
palette. Sinking sound effects keep the dark vibe alive. An assault of running
amens slaps you in the face while a female screams 'All Over Me' - and this tune
really is all over you. Warm pads appear and bring some enlightenment throughout, but the dark synths are just around the corner, ready to attack your sins again!

No set release date for this yet as you all know these times are crazy!

Parallax - The faster you go the shorter you are!

PARA013 B2-InnerCore - Old Empire

Waves crash against the shores, accompanied by a simple and melancholic xylophone melody. A peaceful atmosphere. A voice from the off asks 'To the future or to the past?' and a lush tune with female vocals and warm tuneful subbass unfolds upon us. Just when we feel all soothed George Orwell corrupts our daydream with a toast from 1949, that now - 73 years later - sadly is still a distant future - or 'A Future Passed'? 

'To a time when thought is free when men are different from one another and do not live alone - to a time when truth exists and what is done cannot be undone: From the age of uniformity, from the age of solitude, from the age of Big Brother, from the age of doublethink - greetings!'

Limited testpressings of Sonar´s Ghost - A Future Passed EP (PARA 014)will be available Friday, 3rd June 2022 at 13:00 (UK that´s 12:00 for you) via https://parallaxrecordings.bigcartel.com/ (that´s not the Bandcamp page since Bandcamp Fridays are over!)

A1. MAC-V - ‘Empty Mind’

We begin our journey with MAC-V’s ‘Empty Mind’, a tune for eyes-closed listening.
A meditative flute takes us floating through the clouds high above the mountain tops of
foreign lands, soaring above the creatures below. Then all the elements meet; deep bass,
rolling drums and a huge koto. That's when we transcend into a higher realm. ‘Empty Mind’ is all about reaching Zen level. As Bruce Lee would say, “Be like water”.


A2. Greenleaf – ‘Muted Vibes’

The EP’s second track is ‘Muted Vibes’. A mysterious, jazzy piece from New Orleans’
one and only Greenleaf, a producer well known to everyone digging the Drumfunk
genre. Smoky, deep and mysterious, beats crafted with utter precision...Greenleaf brings us
funky, rolling rhythms and an immaculate selection of sounds. ‘Muted Vibes’ offers the
warmth of a fine whisky enjoyed comfortably in an easy chair, whilst watching grey skies.


B1. Phuture-T & MAC-V - ‘Duality’

What happens when you combine two producers together who share a deep love for
obscure samples and staccato-like breaks? ‘Duality’ happens. This is a track that helps you tap into the infinite source. The one needed, for holy and spiritual fulfilment. The one that will create an irresistible desire to shake and move your body. ‘Duality’ is esoteric, jazzy drumfunk that showcases the very best of both these established producers.


B2. Peeb - ‘Endurance’

‘Endurance’ closes out the EP with a fine dose of atmospheric vibes from UK producer
Peeb - never one to be afraid of creating the most epic of productions. Sweet, mellow pads intertwine, butting heads with tough, heavy breaks. A combination of honey and salt, ‘Endurance’ is that soft, warm blanket in your cold bed. A fire on the tundra. A piece to comfort those disturbed, during these strange times.
