Rudolf Abramov hit all Optimo Music’s buttons at once. Drums, energy, songs, instrumentals, super production, Post Punk echoing, dance floor destroying, home listening friendly, and completely unique.

Who are they and what are they about? Read on…

Rudolf Abramov is a duo based in Berlin. They seem to open a door to unexpected musical encounters. It’s an almost impossible task to sum up their sound in a comprehensible way, but in their own words their music is ‘a response to a seemingly endless conflict about disgust, acceptance and love.’ Since the duo likes to invite other musicians and fellow humans to add to their pieces, this often creates another layer to their unexpected musical encounters.

“Losing Perspective” is the result of a journey that began with a week-long recording session outside the city. Back in Berlin the skeletons of the track gradually grew in flesh, experience and emotion, describing this time in a vibrant and ever-changing city; a city where the faded colours sometimes seem more appealing than the unifying glow of the new.

In order to preserve for ourselves the conflicting colours in their fantastic disharmony, we have therefore watched the pieces change rather than moving them in a particular direction. The result is a number of tracks with different facets that derive from different moods and voices, indulging in diversity.

At the end of this process, we look back at this colourful collage and connect our own very personal history with it and both resolve in harmony. When asking the cat from our studio’s courtyard for example, she said that “Losing Perspective” was about stray tomcats who have lost their old home port to a newfangled establishment wandering randomly through the days in search of songbirds, distraction and rest. And we feel like she kinda has a point there.

Collins Dictionary Example sentence: „Other ocular signs include involuntary rhythmic movement of the eyeball.“ Someone in the edi- torial department wasn‘t paying attention and involuntarily spoke a deeply buried truth: The movement from the eye to rhythm and from there to sound is sometimes a small, puny one.

Now Infuso Giallo provides the proof at the same time and imple- ments his live show for last year‘s debut album „Ocular Soda“ as
an audio-visual show, as intertwined senses. Visible sound, audible images. Such ideas only last when they are put to the test and scru- tinised by several experts.

The duo Globus, which consists of 2/5 of the post-hardcore band PTTRNS, examines the synth hook of the second part of the double- opener „Every Waking Hour Pt.2“ by playing it, varying it, letting it sway.

In contrast, Anatolian Weapons from Athens can‘t help but immerse the ambient, Soft Machine-production-like first minutes of „Every Waking Hour Pt.1“ in a sinister black light. Staggering into a basement
club filled with nocturnal shadow people and indulge in carousing. Cautiously at first, then more and more determinedly.

From Hamburg and Berlin, the „Mole Gaze“ gets a special treatment. The trio Love-Songs drags the number off to Hamburg harbour, packs it onto a steamer, deep into the bow and lets it operate the sonar there. Conrad Schnitzler would have been delighted.

Infuso Giallo, meanwhile, realises that there is nothing more boring than standing still, so he revamps „Hello World“ and gives it a rear spoiler that keeps this number in lane even at club speed.

Speaking of „keeping in lane“: Niklas Wandt, the magician, doesn‘t even try such tricks. He simply throws an acid bolt on the closer „Ocular Soda“ and waits to see what happens. Alongside breakbeats from nowhere, Albert Hoffmann himself appears on a bicycle.

„Ocular Soda Remixes“ is the first tape on the Kame House label, so there‘s only one thing to do: open your eyes and listen!

Que Sakamoto & NT, Anna Vs June, DJ Blech, Lastrack and Tassilo Vanhöfen remixed Los Pashminas’ White Series #2 EP.

After Los Pashminas' debut release, we put the music in the hands of these five trusted producers. While Que Sakamoto & NT raise the BPMs for high dancefloor effectiveness, Tassilo Vanhöfen adds his touch by making ‘Turtle Haze Convolution’ a heavy and dark groove bomb. Lastrack transforms the same track into a massive base-slash-dubstep number that will unleash its power on any big sound system. Anna Vs June from Athens adds a personal touch to ‘Chameleon Brain Dance’ by contributing her own voice and DJ Blech explores the world of polyrhythms and creates a trippy journey on the base of ‘Lobster Symbiotic Dialogue’.

PREMIERE: Ali Renault - Minerva's Shrine (Nocta Numerica)

We are excited to present a 4-song EP by the iconic French synth duo, Deux, entitled Let’s Go ! Gérard Pelletier and Cati Tête formedDeux shortly after meeting in Lyon in 1981. They became known for their stripped-down synthpop compositions and suitably cold duets, through their first Minimal Wave release entitled Decadence (2010) and later their Golden Dreams EP (2012). In the late 1980s and early 1990s, they began to branch out and make more dancefloor-oriented music. The Let’s Go ! EP features three remastered mixes of their underground classic Let’s Go ! and an unreleased version of Everybody’s Night (Dirty Mix). This release is pressed on 180-gram black vinyl, presented in a heavy printed sleeve, based on their 1991 artwork, and accompanied by a black and white photo of the duo. The record is pressed as an edition of 999 copies. A digital release will follow. Release date: February 14th, 2023.

Listen to the entire EP: soundcloud.com/mechatronicamusic/sets/no-moon-sirens-ep-mtron007

No Moon blends electro, breaks, acid and UK bass into a forward-thinking club EP for the 7th release on our main label.

Opening with 'Sirens', the A-side plunges straight into deep and breaky sub-domains, before sliding on to the brighter and melodic, but equally heavy workout, 'Bathtub Dub'.

On the flip, electro and UK bass come together on gloomy tool 'Where Am I', before 'Acid IX' finishes off the record with a blissful, distorted acid frenzy for the floor.

Lifted from @riveryarra's debut 12" on @antinote-records, the very Soichi Terada'esque 'Sli Ggogg' sounds like the ideal soundtrack to classic platformers such as Tombi or Donkey Kong (imagine Funky Kong smooth surfing to this!), but with the extra dancefloor impact.
