Daisy Records Volume Two

Just over one year since our inaugural release we present the second instalment of our annual V/A compilation series ‘Volume Two,’ whereby thirteen so-called Australian artists weave a sonic tapestry that draws from the depths of the contemporary and intertwines with a nostalgic touch of 90s psychedelia.

From ambient dreamscapes and downtempo grooves to rhythmic echoes of dub and trip-hop, ‘Volume Two’ creates a journey where reality and imagination seamlessly collide. It’s a kaleidoscope of sounds, where lush pads and intricate sound design create a piece of music that is a testament to the boundless creativity thriving in the heart of Australia’s musical landscape.

PiP’s work revolves around a simple message: tune into your environment and use your ears. His use of field recordings sheds a light on the sounds that surround us as he zooms in on the musical properties they carry. It’s about harvesting a sonic world and harnessing its energy.

With this 3 track PiP is marking his recorded solo debut and the first release on his label. In an attempt to make the process of releasing music organic and to keep creative control over different stages, ZitStill came to life. PiP – or Pepijn Gyssels – dusted off a bunch of melancholic songs that were stuffed away on a digital shelf.

PiP: “Giving less time to doubts can work miracles in a creative workflow. It forces you to make intuitive decisions. It’s about time these songs found their way out. What good is a sound, if nobody is listening?”

2008 was my Dubstep era. What I loved about Dubstep (before it became the dirty word of Brostep) was its versatility. Coming from Ragga Jungle, which stood so far apart from most 4/4 genres, Dubstep gave me an access point into so many different spaces. At the lounge, I could play the chilled-out side. At the Reggae club, I could lean into the deep Dub. At the breaks club, I could bring the harder edges. There weren’t any Dubstep-specific venues in Seoul at the time — I might have been the only one playing it in the country — so I shoehorned myself into whatever nights I could.

During that time, I was in a relationship with Anna D — entrepreneur, voice actress, photographer, venue owner, DJ, and resident of We Love Techno at Joker Red, located in Seoul’s artsy Hongdae district. Anna invited me to contribute something unique: techno-inspired dubstep. I called it Dubstepno.

Rhodes Vibe was written specifically for that night, and more specifically for the mix handed out on CD at the door: We Love Dubstepno. It remains one of my favorite tracks I’ve ever produced. Just lovely, through and through.

About the album:

"Lost and Found" is a moving and finely detailed album by PNFA, the musical project of German artist Wolfram Gruss. Known for his reflective and atmospheric style, Gruss delivers a collection that blends downtempo, chillout, and trip hop with cinematic and electro-acoustic elements, resulting in a rich, immersive sound.

Most of the tracks are instrumental, unfolding slowly through layered textures, ambient tones, and subtle rhythmic patterns. Each composition is carefully arranged, showcasing a strong focus on sound design and emotional nuance. The music feels organic and spacious, balancing electronic precision with a warm, human touch.

Alongside the instrumentals, the album features several vocal pieces that add lyrical weight and emotional clarity. These songs deal with themes of love, separation, and the emotional complexity of letting go, offering a contrast to the abstract mood of the instrumental tracks.

PNFA’s production style is deeply nuanced, with every detail—from gentle melodies to atmospheric field recordings—thoughtfully placed. "Lost and Found" stands as a cohesive and expressive work, shaped by both technical skill and a strong emotional core.
