Putting you in control of the BPM and volume of separate parts of the seven different tracks, there's original material to play.
You scroll to increase or decrease the BPM, and move your cursor around the page to alter the mix. As you play with each song, the selected videos correspond to the change in mood and tempo, offering an A/V web experience that's aimed at highlighting the link between music and human emotion.

MR. G - PUMPED UP

Order: https://stroboscopicartefacts.com/shop/the-light-touch-satotem004/

Caustic, dense and centred around complex but exquisitely executed percussive motifs and driven, rising sequences - many would argue an alliance between Shifted’s heady, monochrome recordings and Lucy’s beloved Stroboscopic Artefacts label is long overdue. The music draws on much of the British producer’s previous work, assembled carefully using a characteristic sonic palette - but as ever, Brewer finds fresh space between sounds - showing off a tentatively more extroverted side to his work. 

Title track The Light Touch is perhaps one of Shifted’s more idiosyncratic pieces. Instantly recognisable with it’s heavily granular finish and subtle shifts in delay and reverb composition, the track is rich with groove and moves relentlessly across it’s five minute run time. 

Seel showcases the artist’s talent for building tension with minimal elements - built around a single warping lead, noise tracks drift in and out of the mix to generate effective builds and subtle releases. EP closer, Mixen, riffs on it’s predecessor’s approach but strips back the percussive elements further and ups the ante with searing drone signals rising up above the lead sequence driving the track.

As ever, Brewer’s musical output looks to the heart of the genre - remaining true to purist sensibilities that favour economy of sonic components and studio prowess over unnecessary fanfare, but all the while forging new ground & refining a genuinely personal aesthetic. A powerful debut on a label in fine form that represents some of the best of the British artist’s work.

The Light Touch

A - Shifted - The Light Touch [SATOTEM004]

Track from NE64 Evigt Mörker – Krona 2xLP
Out on 2xLP and digital September 27th.

Following up his pair of cryptically luminous EPs for Northern Electronics in the past years, Evigt Mörker presents his debut album, Krona.

With a shuffling atmosphere that’s hard to pin down, the album chronically fixates on the degradation and construction of rhythmic drills with finely rendered parts and patterns. Spiralling the listener through a set of stormy soundscapes, Krona keeps placing the horizon just ahead, and just out of reach. The unease that Evigt Mörker invites us into is electrically charged and threatening to crack. For all its syncopation we are relentlessly swerving through the works, afraid of teasing an arcing static shock from the blistering commotion. The album’s propulsive tracks are settled against a pair of stunning ambient compositions that capture some of the tension from a distance. Technical dexterity and perfectly pitched intensity stakes out Evigt Mörker’s debut album as an impressive statement.

Recorded by Evigt Mörker in Stockholm, Sweden 2018.
Mastered by Neel at EnissLab, Rome.

When Wolfskuil recording artist Thomas Lauren came to us with his new techno project Qindek, we were instantly intrigued. Qindek sees Thomas moving away from his melodic background into uncharted abstract territories, without losing the warmth and depth we’ve come to know him for.

Three tracks (two originals and one live jam with Digga) are on this EP, each with it’s own distinct character. The titletrack is psychedelic little monster wich received support from Peter van Hoesen and Sandrien in the demostage allready. It’s dark, brooding atmosphere is matched only by the suspense and irie groove, withour ever reaching full climax. It’s counterpart, the bigroom anthem ‘Te Beroerd’, on the flip is a whole different matter. Very powerfull stuff and there is absolutely no way around it’s rave antics and monstrous kickdrum.

Last but definitely not least is the livejam Qindek did with his studio companion Digga. Harder & Faster is a great hypnotic session of the guys with a catchy, almost sweet sounding theme draped in lush sounddesign and pounding grooves.

Polar Inertia examines the enigmatic and blurry realms, embracing the art of obscured vision.
Encountering the collective Polar Inertia is much like being absorbed by fog and captivated by
its ever-shifting forms and densities, with things being as indistinguishable as in a whiteout.

Formed in 2010 by a group of artists, Polar Inertia transcends visibility, delving into structures
that lie beyond the public gaze. Layers upon layers intertwine within the fabric of Polar Inertia,
extending beyond their profound electronic compositions and live performances. It manifests as a conceptual universe, where sound, monochrome aesthetics, and elusive narratives converge,
much like trying to grasp the intangible fog. The entity that is Polar Inertia is involved in
installations, print- and video work and texts created for different contexts and live in different
spheres such as Palais de Tokyo in Paris or the Lyon Biennale of Contemporary Art. Still, clubs
and festivals are perfect spaces to experience these nebulous soundworlds and immerse in
them. Fittingly, some of Polar Inertia’s appearances include the colossal halls of Berghain and
Bassiani and at experimental festivals like Mutek Montreal and Atonal Berlin, that like to break
with the classic club conventions.

Polar Inertia's sonic landscape unfolds with wafting textures accompanied by resonating beats
and drones, reverberating through empty spaces, merging with the vast expanse of nothingness.
Their sound exists at the crossroads of ambient, experimental, and deep techno, interwoven
with vocal narratives. Since their inaugural release “Indirect Light“ on Dement3d Records in
2011, they remain a stronghold of relevance and captivation in the electronic domain.
