The Catalan duo SMFORMA, which includes Mario F. and Jogile D., is a project that, although it has been active for about 4 years, always appears on stage sporadically and usually together with other artists, as to date they have only released a single EP. However, their presence and notoriety is increasing, and this is possibly due to two factors: the first is their powerful live performance, since in their shows they demonstrate, in addition to a great solidity on stage, their enormous aptitude to adapt to different sound fields. The second factor, and no less important, is that their few productions have been released on major labels such as Oráculo Records, SOIL Records or Diffuse Reality.

SMFORMA is back again, but this time with the release of Judam Giliau, a self-published digital track that perfectly sums up the style of this musical project. SMFORMA employs the use of mangled metal percussions and harsh, saturated noise and sounds, however atypical to their contemporaries, the focus is placed on blending unusual and lush electronic music textures. With the music and composition predominately relying on improvising, Mario and Jogile seamlessly melds together the dualities and schisms of these opposing sonic worlds into compositions that are truly singular which are intended to target the listener's wounds of trauma and sear them closed by offering a unique world of escapism.

Release date: August 23th, 2023.

Premiere: SMFORMA - Judam Giliau

Diffuse Reality will celebrate a decade of life next year 2024, and if there is one thing we can say that has not changed during these 9 years of existence, it is the constancy and persistence to maintain a dynamic recording activity, as it has an extensive catalogue, given that its level of publications is really surprising.

Another of the great resources of this Catalan label is its enormous capacity to discover great musical talents, new artists or artists who, despite their great aptitude, have had a rather discreet musical career. And in this situation we can place the Irish producer Darqhorse, a musical project of which we hardly know anything about him, only that his real name is Jimmy Wormall, a native of Cork City, who to date has only released one solo EP, as well as collaborating on several compilation albums, and that his style is oriented towards genres such as electronica or electro.

Digital Dawn is Darqhorse's debut full-length, an album in which he demonstrates a clear orientation towards electro, although he also expands his sound with electronic and acid textures.

Release date: October 10th, 2023.

Premiere: Darqhorse - Consciousness Systems [Diffuse Reality]

Bertram debuts on Dutch cult label Pinkman Records. Fueled by nostalgia, 'Lights Out' aims to execute industrial old school dancehall and dub within a raw electronics framework. It combines old drum machines, vintage synths, acid bass lines, Sherman-laced vocals by Bertram and the people in his life, and clever approaches to the creative process and production. He believes in a ''it takes a village" approach and worked closely with label head Marsman to iterate the project. The release is blessed by remixes courtesy of C.L.A.W.S. and Chris Mitchell.

PREMIER // Fear - E - Going For Gold [Posh End Music]

Artist: Fellow Alliances
Album: America feat. Barbara Gogan & Marco Dianese
Label: Secret Lovers Records
Release date: 08/09/2023
Format: Digital
Buy: https://secretloversrecords.bandcamp.com/

Secret Lovers Records presents 'America' by Fellow Alliances, set to release on Friday, September 8, 2023. Bridging the sounds of ambient serenity with the throbbing undertones of techno, this release offers a fresh perspective on the ever-evolving landscape of electronic music.

The record opens with ""America - Nadia Struiwigh Remix"", a masterful interpretation by the electronic maestro, Nadia Struiwigh. Her signature touch, reminiscent of the ethereal soundscapes crafted by stalwarts like Biosphere and Boards of Canada, resonates throughout the track. Struiwigh seamlessly weaves synthesized ambiance with subtle hints of techno, crafting a sonic narrative that is as immersive as it is hypnotic.

Next, the original ""America feat. Barbara Gogan & Marco Dianese"" dives into a deeper dimension. The collaborative effort infuses experimental electronic textures of Barbara Gogan and the artistic touch of Marco Dianese. The outcome melds the abstract with the tangible, creating an environment where electronica meets emotion.

Join Secret Lovers Records on this mesmerizing voyage and let the waves of 'America' transport you to realms unknown.

PREMIER // Fellow Alliances - America [Secret Lovers Records]

NODE is a platform that started in 2017 as a cycle of musical proposals in Barcelona, with events oriented towards the city's club scene and a sound expressly aimed at techno.  Among the objectives that were set from the beginning, it is worth highlighting the good atmosphere and the synchrony between the dancefloor and the stage, and always maintaining the habit of having national and international artists such as Anthony Linell, Shifted, Psyk, Svreca, ORBE, Architectural or Luigi Tozzi among many others in the booth.

This philosophy of always having different artists of great level for each event, is also transferred to their recording activity, as there is no release that is composed by a single author, each artist participates with a single track. 

Dario Duegra, who is at the helm of this project, founded NODE Recordings in 2020 as a fraction of the platform, maintaining and transmitting the identity of the musical concept. This September, coinciding with its third anniversary, the label launches Neural Haze, the first reference of this label released on vinyl format.
 
The Italian CONCEPTUAL opens with Selva Oscura, a cut that mixes intensity with the hypnotism caused by the continuous succession of patterns that modulate gradually. And this description can be perfectly applicable to the remaining 5 tracks, as Noir, by Dario Duegra, Dex31, a cut by the Argentinian Farceb, Thorax, by the Spanish producer ORBE, and No Fear, a track by the also Italian Sciahri, follow a similar pattern to the first cut, with linear techno and a lot of pressure. On the other hand, Out of Time, which is the closing track of the album and is signed by the Detroit artist Uun, is a much more mental and less solid techno, however, the psychological factor is basically created with a very detailed and elaborate combination of percussive elements, especially in terms of panning. 

Release date: September 20th, 2023.
