Nadia D'Alò - D.S.

SETR008 V.Ö. 14.10.

A) TIFFY L’AMOUR - FOLLOW ME (FREY & MENQUI Glockenspiel) 
B) DIE GESUNDEN - Filmmusik (FREY & OTTER Dive)

Serious Trouble label presents a mind bending record that brings together forward thinking jams from the early 80’s into present time with reworks of Tiffy L’Amours’ „Follow Me“ and „Film Musik“ from Die Gesunden. Both received an editorial treatment by Benedikt Frey, Menqui & Philipp Otterbach. With kind allowance by the original composers this 12“ marks the editorial spirit of Serious Trouble and waves tribute to moist cellar jams.
The A-Side „Follow Me“ Rework by Frey & Menqui is a wild extension of the original which gently adds a weird drummy cowbell intro before it introduces the chanting eccentric original. That got enhanced with an extra electronic bass recording and relooped cut & phrases emphasing you to hit the bell just one more time.
On the flip side „Film Musik“ Frey & Otterbach dived into the artists main motive and layerd it with a lyra, sh101 and external drums in an 8 hour session. It respectfully keeps the spirit of the playful original. In comparison to that though they managed to built a seamless endless „escheresque" staircase to mad mountain. An Immortal Acid exploration.

Die Gesunden & Tiffy L'Amour Reworks (Benedikt Frey, Menqui, Philipp Otterbach)

@freybenedikt RIO09 // 11.18.2022 // Distr. One Eye Witness

When British Airways got privatized and listed on the London Stock Exchange, somewhere in Canada the first Starbucks outside of the US opened, and the Walt Disney Company signed an agreement with the French Prime Minister to construct Disneyland Paris. In the sky above southern Argentina, Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon, Sudan, Ethiopia, Djibouti, northern Somalia, and the Atlantic Ocean a hybrid solar eclipse materialized for 7.57 seconds, whilst Margaret Thatcher performed for 45-minutes on Soviet television. Some days later, The Simpsons cartoon first appears as a series of shorts on The Tracey Ullman Show, Diego Maradona wins his first Italian soccer championship with Napoli, and Eighteen-year-old West German pilot Mathias Rust lands a private plane on Red Square in Moscow. In the mists of the world's first conference on artificial life at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, the first Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant in Mainland China opens in Beijing, and Prozac gets approved for use as an antidepressant in the United States. Much give way for the future, down there in 1987, the year that marks the title of Benedikt Frey’s freshest mini album, out into the world on R.i.O., the label he runs with some pals in the North of Berlin. It’s a dubby melancholic conqueror, wistfully, repetitive, drilling, absorbing, spooking. It makes you dream. Not particular of the year 1987. But it’s all there: The Red Square, the untouched land of the Val d'Europe, Diego on fuego. Six dark-ish tracks in trance, melancholic dub, downbeat heaven, journey music depths, all full of light and yet so dark. Futuristic dramas linked to a speculative past. In our dreams all might look different. The eclipse may last 27-minutes. You meet Neuromancer cyberpunks and blade running Ghost dogs, all taught to hack by Phrack. Cristal clear melodies, sampled voices, and veiled basslines, analogue scopes, and digital ropes, longing for a past that storm into the future. A time where deep listening widens the acoustics into infinity, while neon glows charm the light smog. Benedikt Frey been down there. Or maybe not. His latest music tells stories from the bygone, vested with the forthcoming. Come in and look out. There is nothing to see, yet so much to hear. ML

🔊 https://youtu.be/bfV7nECrXEI

Phase Group continue their exploration of the fringes of contemporary electronic music with a release that brings together two separate projects born from analogue hardware improvisations.

‘A Given Moment’ presents the dub-laden, mind-bending and noise-driven music of Brussels-based artist and Vastechoses label head Lostsoundbytes, and the lo-fi, early morning lysergic experiments of Lowspace, an unearthed, forgotten collaborative project by French DJ and musician Low Bat and Dresden-based producer Heninspace.

This is music that takes you deeper into the vortex, made for dark and smoke-enveloped clubs and cosmic day-break afterparty moments. On the A-side, Lostsoundbytes continues his prolific output of masterfully crafted bass-heavy and dub-wise analogue machine jams, while the B-side presents two lost psychotropic experimental recordings by Lowspace made in 2018 upon a visit by Low Bat to Heninspace’s Dresden studio.

Tracklist: 

A1. Lostsoundbytes - In 1000 Years
A2. Lostsoundbytes - Fou De Croire
A3. Lostsoundbytes - Brain's Rewind

B2. Lowspace - Dance For The Underwear Hour

Opener 39C from https://soundcloud.com/anatolianweapons is a psychedelic trippy remix with a long life and the flat footed broken beat, marking new sound for both the label and the Greek producer's genre - spanning discography. From the agitation, pulse pounding action to the utter cold forest, fueling a fire that that continues to burn in your mind starting from the 8th minute.

«Naivety Remixed» returns to the label,
exclusively on March 3, 2023. Pre-order is open!

The enchantress in life and co-runner of spiritual event series in Berlin, Ceremonial Rite is manifesting through the music.

Consider performing a ritual, where music is a manifestation and dance is a liberation. Maneuvering between ethnic percussions and harsh acidic synths it’s a shamanic guide into tribal-influenced breaky and bass electronic music.
Her releases can be found on Haunted Space and BODY MUSICK.

She is also known as a Slow Motion/Wrong Era's guest with her alternative crafty ebm project ANBU.

Release date: 07/6/23

"Stéréogramme returns with the second opus of his “Interactive Pictures” series. Walking the same road as last year, paved with new age, freak folk and leftfield
synths, the Paris-based label also ventures to new paths like minimalism, no wave and vocal experimentations.
Once again divided in two musical panoramas, this 11-track tape will definitely bring back your happy childhood memories to the surface. First, take a nap with the soothing lullabies of Héron Cendré, Peter Graf York, Les Echos Primitifs, Lamina & Bravo Tounky, only to be interrupted by Ronan Riou’s feverish contribution. Then, hear the spooky, harebrained stories of Aymeric de Tapol, Leoni Leoni, Houschyar, Geier aus Stahl, Zad Kokar and Firmaet Forvoksen. In short, another marvelous line-up gathered by head-honcho Rako, who made its specialty of unearthing spontaneous yet skillful compositions.
So, stay on the lookout until July 7, 2023 and entertain your inner-child’s fertile imagination via “Interactive Pictures Vol. 2” and its limited-batch of 75 cassettes grouped in 6 artwork versions designed by Structure Bâtons."

🔊 https://youtu.be/nVzU6dgMxek

Close your eyes and merge into Benedikt Frey’s 'Fastlane'. Imagine sitting in the driver’s seat of a an automobile, one with exceptional horsepower and torque, as you stare out the windshield at the red light, warping in fata-morgana a mile down the road. It’s a straight-away, a black top with two lanes, and against your better judgment you decide to floor the gas. No hesitation in your muscle, your ankle or the ball of your foot, which you now realize is some kind of universal pivot, the first point of contact fusing your body with the will of machine. In this moment you’re in awe that you, a human, an animal, grew from pond scum into something so advanced as to engineer this thing, a mechanical beast capable of overwhelming power and exhilaration. But you also feel a seductive dread, an outside force diverting you from caution toward a dangling carrot of curiosity, asking yourself, ‘How far can I take this thing?’ The dread, now a constant, is numbed, equalized by an adverse intoxicating gratification. You feel both sensations in real time, however, rather than take responsibility for yourself, friends, family and innocent bystanders, you cement your foot to the floor and lean your head back. Noise around you fades to mute. Smell the benzene-scented air, feel the wind on your face, the menacing vibration of the vessel you control beneath you and every grain of asphalt under its tires. This mile has now lasted an eternity and you’ve left your body for some objective view, as if watching climax of a film. Past the point of no return, you embrace abandon and lean into fate. The film becomes slow motion, a crawling pace so mesmerizing you convince yourself of an option to eject yourself from this madness, but as you finally let go of your last morsel of fear, you run the red light head-on into the nucleus of a fantastic glistening sculpture of torn metal, glass, oil, broken dreams and heartache. 'Fastlane' may be just drum machines and synthesizers if you’re timid, but listen harder and know the catastrophic reality of existence, a wreckage so gruesome we dare not rubberneck, but afterall it is our nature to stare.

Desert rebels

PREMIERE: Geopard Tourist, Dalma Puskas - Desert Rebels (Luca Saporito Remix) [LNDKHN]

Two years on since his BR debut in Berlin, our attention is drawn once again to Benedikt Frey and his Lopasura (Love, Pain, Sunshine & Rain) imprint. Since its 2012 formation, Lopasura has housed Benedikt's own releases. Following on from the Connect Four compilation by Drvg Cvltvre, Mark Forshaw, The Acid Mercenaries and Benedikt himself, he now returns with the label's fourth release. Out of the Fog showcases a trio of analogue-laden techno mastery. The title track opens proceedings fittingly. Acid low-tessitura chords hiss continuously underneath while siren synths whir in and out in their grandeur, peaking to symphonic effect before fading back into the dark. A sense of drama that encompasses Love, Pain, Sunshine & Rain comprehensively.

Catch Out of the Fog creeping out of the shadows on 21st April via Lopasura.
