**🌿 DUBAMORPHOSIS — Aton & The Resonants**
*Cassette Master Version*

*Dubamorphosis* is sonic metamorphosis — a ceremony of transformation recorded onto the warm, textured body of analog tape. This is not just an album, but a ritual. A vibrational codex in dub key. A butterfly born from bass.

Created by **Aton & The Resonants**, this work is both root and expansion: root as earth, rhythm, ancestral memory; expansion as light, cosmos, the unseen pulse beneath all things. Reggae here is not merely a genre — it is a spiritual language: a system of pulse, space, and vibration designed for collective healing and awakened embodiment.

Each track is a phase in the metamorphosis — from cocoon to flight. A sequence of deep breaths woven with delays, reverbs, and minimalist groove. Voices emerge as mantras, chants, or wind-wrapped whispers. The bass doesn’t just guide the path — **it is** the path. Like the spine of a solar insect, it carries the dance and the trance.

Recorded and mixed with analog processes, this cassette master version is not nostalgia — it’s a statement: **time has texture**. And tape, with its warm growl and gentle imperfections, reminds us that music is not only what’s heard, but also what is *felt between the spaces*.

Instruments were approached as ritual beings: drums that breathe like jungle soil, organs that slither and pulse, guitars that strike like vines in rain. At the center: a butterfly — a living symbol of conscious change — spreading wings woven of delay trails, tape hiss, and filtered sunlight through smoke.

Inspired by deep roots reggae (Burning Spear, Marley, Augustus Pablo), yet expanded into a mystical and futuristic dimension, *Dubamorphosis* is also a **manifesto**. A proposal for living. A reminder that within chaos, there is rhythm — and within rhythm, there is healing.

This album is not designed for the speed of streaming or the logic of consumption. It is meant to be **inhabited**. To be listened to with the body, the heart, with bare feet on soil or while floating beneath the stars.

*“Bless the rhythm that returns me to Earth”*, the inner voice chants at the end.
And so, what began as a bass seed, becomes a butterfly of light.

Keith Fullerton Whitman “En la Parc de la Ciutadella”

Beautiful dreamlike ambient piece by Birch.

'The Danish imprint Infinite Waves takes a step back with its triple
cassette anthology ‘Still Water’, showcasing the current tides and
sounds at the label. The compilation will be released on October
13.

The rules on Still Water are the same as on the 2017-precursor,
Underwater Gestures. Each of the six artists has been given a tape
side – or a maximum of 20 minutes ¬– to incorporate their own
sound and atmospheric textures, resulting in a triple cassette
release with six different notions of the ‘ambient’ terminology.
By compiling different works of art, Still Water is both a statement
that is larger than the individual works and a manifestation of the
concept and artistic profile at the Copenhagen based imprint. In a
world of easy to digest singles, Still Water is a far-reaching and
weighty body of the work.'

Temple of Faitiche 20 - guest mix

@ https://soundcloud.com/karlfousek

Established as a key voice in modern synthesizer music, Karl Fousek’s focus lies on the sense of movement inherent in his modular. And it is indeed ‘movement’, along with its close cousin ‘time’, that seems to inform the pure experimentalism with sound generated on Another Use For Time. Fousek’s tones flurry back and forth across and inside each other, with the Canadian composer oscillating between the macro and micro gestures of his instrument to create a sonic sculpture in constant motion. Fousek himself describes it as an album made in transition: “It's kind of a reflection of my past work and taste and techniques, while also trying to move forward.” 

Unusually for Fousek, these three pieces were recorded at separate times, straddling a period of transition as the artist left Montreal to move back west to Vancouver. 

The album’s opening 18-minute exploration, ‘What Was Once Or Twice’, was recorded in Seattle, and is split into two movements. The first sees Fousek introduce a variety of whooshes, bleeps, and frozen tones, and the second sends them spiralling out of control, and receding back into the outer reaches of his setup, short circuiting and colliding into mind bending new forms that seem to fold space-time. The entire piece is built around a custom software delay network that “reacts automatically and changes itself based on the incoming signal”. 

The brief interlude at the centre of the record – ‘Circling’ – dates further back to 2016 and deploys those embryonic delay techniques Fousek would later develop, while the second two-parter dates to Montreal in 2018. Constructed from noisier jams, “Time For Another User” is dense with ideas; an attempt to make a “classic” electroacoustic composition devoid of narrative and structure. Algorithms and spontaneity are deployed to encourage maximum disruption, making it a sonic smorgasbord that rewards close listens. Every modest, Fousek views it differently. “Hopefully,” he says, “it just floats by.”

BYRON WESTBROOK - Electric Blued

Track commissioned for the exhibition ‘Now Accepting Contactless - Design in a Global Pandemic’ V&A Dundee as part of a mix by David Blamey for British Earways to be played on a loop in the gallery.

- - 

A couple of months before lockdown, the housing block where Tom White lives got covered in scaffolding. Residents were left in a building veiled by translucent white netting for months on end. This composition was made in this specific urban lockdown context: the fridge whirs, birds chirp on scaffold poles, electromagnetic activity & tape loops reverberate on the eardrums, within the home and out into the world.

Composed of archive and site specific sounds.
