Wayfaring Stranger - this American folk song was interpreted by Joachim Pastor from Paris and only 18 years old singer Florence Bird from England. Besides the pushing remix by AKA AKA & Thalstroem and the solo production " Leçon de Vie", there is another collaboration with Florence and AKA AKA on this 4 tracker: "Sandman". All tracks show how melodic and dreamy tunes still can be danceable. Late Summer of love on vinyl!

On his fifth album as VC-118A, Samuel van Dijk (@mohlao) is using his evolved electro practice to explore the notion of change - a universal constant which keeps us barrelling towards unknown futures.

With 2021’s Spiritual Machines, van Dijk presented a new approach which took his established (and celebrated) sound into downtempo and experimental pastures. Now the Dutch artist builds on that premise with a clear-sighted focus on the idea of change, as forces and factors in our present moment accelerate the states of flux within our lives.

Crooked machine rhythms remain the driving force behind VC-118A, but it’s the treatment of the drums and the richly developed layers around them which tell the story. The sources are largely analogue, from a trusted bank of outboard tools ranging from 606s and 101s to ample modern and vintage effects and various modular systems, but these sounds are carefully sequenced and shaped with digital processes to create the nuanced tones and textures which envelop Waves of Change. Crucial to the spatial immersion of the album is the subtle drop in tempo, widening the rhythms and leaving room for the atmospheric sound design to have a greater impact.

The fluid synthesis and sound design which permeates tracks like ‘The Deep’, ‘You’ and ‘Replace Image’ might well be considered a sonic metaphor for the ever-shifting state of the universe, while the reliably crisp rhythmic structures applied to the likes of ‘Heat’, ‘Club’ and ’Elektri’ have a metronomic quality as steadfast as time itself.

It’s the extended immersion of ‘Motherboard’ which offers the most complete summation of the album’s qualities at the midway point, coursing through subtly vivid soundscapes guided by elegant, constantly probing drums. The snatches of voices which emerge through the mix are those of van Dijk’s parents, sampled from a discovered box of tapes from the mid-80s when they were both sound artists. Thematically, the samples also embody the sense of change van Dijk was striving for making this album, capturing a moment in time for his now-separated parents when their lives were very different.

Balancing the disciplines of machine-powered sequencing and hand-shaped sound to render his ideas in sonic form, the continued evolution of VC-118A results in another mesmerising record steeped in craft and loaded with intention.

Espacio Cielo Unveils Alemao’s Latest Dark Disco Masterpiece: "Structural Dynamics of Flow"

After the success of his collaborative EP with Rems Martinez, Alemao returns to Espacio Cielo with Structural Dynamics of Flow, a powerful release that showcases both his technical prowess and artistic growth. This EP is a deep dive into the world of dark disco, blending hypnotic beats with immersive soundscapes, deliverng an electrifying experience that is both intense and dancefloor-ready.

Featuring six carefully curated tracks, the EP encapsulates Alemao’s signature style—dark, potent, and driving. From the lush, enveloping pads to the acidic basslines, each track builds an atmospheric narrative. The standout track, "High Life," takes listeners on a euphoric journey with distorted vocals and a pulsating rhythm, building to an intoxicating high. French artist Franck Ros also brings his unique touch to this track with a remix that adds a fresh perspective to the original, marking his debut on the label.

The title track, Structural Dynamics of Flow, is another highlight of the EP, weaving together complex textures and infectious grooves. Accompanying the original is a remix by SNYL, whose take on the track infuses it with a new energy, creating an ideal blend of intensity and flow. Like Franck Ros, this is SNYL's first release on Espacio Cielo.

Two more dynamic tracks, Vultures and Revolver, complete the EP. These showcase Alemao’s range and creativity, ensuring the EP’s versatility across different moods and settings.

This release reinforces Espacio Cielo's mission to push the boundaries of electronic music by providing a platform for innovative and experimental sounds. Alemao's latest work is poised to resonate with fans of dark, acid-laced disco while also introducing fresh energy to the global electronic music scene.

Get 2 know Nicky Benedek: a producer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and DJ. His compositions bridge the nebulous territories of house, boogie, hip-hop, jazz-fusion and experimental new age.

Born and bred in Los Angeles, Benedek began pulling inspiration from the city’s structural and visual dichotomies at a young age. He picked up a guitar at 9 years-old, taking note of any and all sonic surroundings, from prevalent West Coast G-funk to the synthesized sound effects in video games to a Herbie Hancock record pulled from his dad’s collection. Amongst a complex set of influences, funk took a hold on his heart by high school. 

Out July 28th, Bene’s World is Benedek’s second Leaving Records release, following last year’s Coolin’ EP as well as a full-length debut on the influential Peoples Potential Unlimited label. His catalogue also includes collaborations with Dam-Funk, Delroy Edwards and Tom Noble. Recorded between his Koreatown studio and the West LA home he grew up in, Bene’s World captures the characteristically-LA mingling of urban action and canyon seclusion.

The music of Herrhausen & Treindl provokes a feeling that is similar to standing on the glittering peak of an alpine panorama and watching an avalanche descending the slope of a nearby mountain, a feeling that is similar to looking down a 100-meter cliff and watching giant waves crashing against the coast in the salty mist of an early morning. You’re witnessing something extremely powerful and compelling, a true force of nature, but at the same time you feel perfectly relaxed and peaceful, almost in a state of meditation. The slow-motion grooves of Herrhausen & Treindl send us on a dreamlike journey of otherworldly beauty. Setting an amazingly slow pace, they hurl us far out into the infinite space that extends inside our heads.
