Sabla is a project born and raised in Turin, devotely committed to the study of hypnotic sounds and polyrhythmics.  He’s co-founder of Gang of Ducks, a collective which takes care of music releases, editorial issues and art projects. 

He has released two Ep,  Spirits on Gang Of Ducks and DanzaGuida on Dont’dj’ DISK.  He also appeared on compilation on Amsterdam’s Knekheluis, Bristol Normcore and Hivern Discs.
 
In November 2021 he has released his first album, Music for Melted Floors, on Pensaments Sònics, a new project run by the team of Hivern Discs.

"It's been quite some years since I wanted to record a mix based on Muslimgauze-only tracks so I took a podcast invitation from Electric Shapes as a chance to finally do it.

I dug in around 60 of the over 90 albums recorded by Bryans Jones over his 16 years of activity and went into the rabbit hole of his insane discography.

I realized that there could really be hundreds of directions you can take by doing a mix right in his records, this is one of them. Hope you’ll enjoy the journey."

Red Light Radio:  Black Merlin at Dekmantel Festival 2019

Samuel van Dijk a.k.a. VC-118A’s achingly beautiful melancholic moods and roomy, absorbing grooves have distinguished him as one of the Netherlands’ most compelling talents.

With releases on @delsinrecords, @frustratedfunk, @tabernacle-records, @astralindustries and @silent-season, van Dijk’s productions play with contrasting textures and moods to construct distinctive soundscapes fusing elements of electro, techno, dub, and ambient. His thrilling, immersive performances at Tresor and Griessmuehle (Berlin), Fuse (Brussels), Concrete (Paris) and Trouw (Amsterdam), as well as festivals such as @parallelfestival under his numerous aliases (VC-118A, Mohlao, @multicastdynamics) have further cemented his status as a master craftsman, his unique sound eluding classification.

Van Dijk’s Patterns of Perception 63 sees him strip the VC-118A sound back to the essentials, blending contrasting elements in a science-fiction inspired exploration of abstract worlds, decompression, and escape. This stark, intricately-realised and captivating ambient-focused selection takes the listener to distant, eerily familiar and hauntingly beautiful places.

Patterns of Perception 63 - VC-118A

Mattikk is a Planet Delsin resident and curator of the new Delsin offshoot label Mantis. The Dutch local always crafts the most interesting sets... always somehow finding the perfect balance between trippy deep broken beats, yet still beautiful, clubby and driving. Glad to share his music on this side of the world.

Love this one a lot. So glad you could  put this one together for us Thijs ! :')@mattikk

"If, like many others, your introduction to Black Merlin began only from the point of the highly successful Hipnotik Tradisi, your curiosity might have been piqued enough to attempt a little digging of your own, only to be gobsmacked once you realize that you’d been missing out on 90% of a highly productive, almost a decade long career that had preceded the Black Merlin stage name. By the time his jungle-infected LP arrived, Thompson had already carved out several niches for himself in various corners of the electronic music world.

Way back in 2008, Thompson was already making music as one half of Spectral Empire, a duo act with fellow Brit Kyle Martin. Since then, and in between his solo creations as Black Merlin, he has collaborated with partners under no less than two other guises (Kommune, Karamika). His musical catalogue is nothing short of spectacular, having released on such diverse labels as Omnidisc, Bird Scarer Records, Island of The Gods, LN-CC, Common Thread, Pinkman, Berceuse Heroique, SORN, ESP Institute, Boysnoize Records and Jealous God, among others. The recurring theme here appears to be one of constant reinvention, as the genres he has dabbled with oscillates from warped spacey disco, synth-driven krautrock, droney minimal wave, retrogressive EBM, to the hypnotic dark techno of recent years.
From the outside looking in, Thompson’s career trajectory thus far appears to have been less dictated by fickle industry trends and more intrinsically motivated. Running on his own internal clock, he’s been releasing music and reinventing himself at a steady and relentless pace both before and after Hipnotik Tradisi brought his name to the forefront. Few musicians would be tempted to stray from a formula that has tasted success. Not Black Merlin. Following hot on the heels of his 2016 tour de force are already two completely different records by Thompson, all within the span of a year. Clearly, he wasted little time basking in past glory.
Any bid to decode this artist and reduce him to a mere label for one’s own categorizing convenience would be a futile endeavor; it’s akin to a cynic’s vain attempt to deconstruct and unravel one magician’s trick: you’ll likely come out none the wiser and risk missing out on the pure and simple appreciation of his art form. Much better to let each of his music pieces speak for itself."
