Synergy is a compilation made by 23 producers uniting for the first time through their separate passions.

Nearly 50 producers were asked what specific aspect they enjoyed the most in music production. Some aligned with beat-making; others preferred to make atmospheres, synthesis experimentation, field recording, or mixing.

Michel Iseneld grouped them into 15 teams of three, where each participant focused only on their area of passion.

These teams were then paired with five Aedi members whose passion was mixing. These mixing enthusiasts then brought their expertise into the creative process, bringing all the elements together.

Out of the resulting 15 tracks, the community of over 250 producers chose seven of them through a democratic vote.

Synergy is a statement that encourages music creatives to think differently, collaborate, and always remember that creativity should be fun.

Now, we invite you to leap into the creations of our hive mind.

Scared Of My Love

No Escape, is a track I made for the BandLab x Functionloops competition.

In creating this track I used the FunctionLoops Vocal Pop & RNB Vibes sample pack.

The vocals used spoke to me of a time when we face that fear, rational or not that feels oppressive like an all consuming darkness... The mood of the track is downtempo electronic and creates an energy to overcome that darkness...

I hope you enjoy listening and I appreciate all the support, thank you 🙏🙏🙏🙏 🦾

I was inspired by "Get Back" by The Beatles, but I'm not talented enough to do that. Instead I had fun with my synths and recorded this.

A X6402 collaboration:

STEPAN
TaNezha x Six Four Zero Two

–
THE COLLABORATION
This X6402 Collaboration is with 'TaNezha'  (Tetyana Nizhynska) who is a singer based in Kyiv, Ukraine.
The lyrics were written and sung by TaNezHa, a capella, in the style of a traditional Folk song. 'Six Four Zero Two' created the music, responding emotionally to the story and mood: "I wanted the music to soar and weave fluidly around the constant that is the voice".

THE TRACK
‘Stepan’ is a story about the strength of a young girl whose partner goes off to war and is lost for some time. When the people eventually gather to hail the Cossacks triumphant return, he is not with them. The girl is forlorn and returns home where, she finds him waiting in the courtyard. A joyful return to love, peace and their homeland.

CREDITS:
Lyrics and Vocal: Tetyana Nizhynska.
Music, Instrumentation and Production: Six Four Zero Two.
Design: 6402.

LYRICS:
Translation from Ukrainian.

There, in the meadow at the edge of the forest, a girl was walking,
looking for healing thyme, mint and roses.
She was singing as she walked "I am collecting the potion for Stepan,
so he can stay strong and defeat the enemies".

When she went to the valley she saw Cossacks,
returning home to Nenka (homeland) in a big crowd.
"Oh, you men, you dear fellows, how happy I am to see you.
Where is my beloved Stepan? I yearn to see him".

"Oh my dear, we do not know, he did not follow.
We know not of his fate, we have not seen him".
The sweet girl burst into tears and went home.
“Where have you gone, my Stepan? My eternal love".

"Oh, you dear man, if only you all would come back home.
Let all of our enemies be gone!", the sweet girl cried.
Then, as she entered the yard she saw Stepan,
waiting there, to joyfully meet his beloved girl.

Started as bass groove after going to a Thundercat gig, needed something else so came up with the 11 note repeating figure on guitar which was then doubled on keys to give an almost Steve Reich type effect. 

One to check out start to finish if you have the time, thanks for listening. For the guitar geeks there's a wee solo at the end.

Drums: NI Karriem Riggins.
Bass: Warwick 5-string Corvette through NI Guitar Rig and during the 11 note sequence section sustained notes on NI Monark synth bass.
Guitars: Suhr Custom Classic and Strandberg Salen Jazz through a few instances of NI Guitar Rig. Short solo at the end is the Suhr.
Keys: various NI, Arturia and Spitfire.
Mastering: Ozone 10 Standard.
DAW: Ableton 12.

Quantec - Journey of Mind // Neighbour Recordings 004 // 2 x 12"

OUR man Quantec is nothing if not versatile. An aficionado of many styles including ambient, deep house, Detroit, dub, dubby electronics, experimental and roots reggae, he can turn his hand adeptly across the musical palette. For this his latest release on Neighbour Recordings it’s all about the ‘D’; deep ambient, drone and dub techno that’s dope with a capital ‘D’. Not for nothing is his album titled Journey of Mind. It’s a personal and self-assured trip from first note to last – not surprising for a producer with almost 25 years in the game – drifting as it does through contemplative sonic worlds and ethereal soundscapes. And while the label co-owner’s handiwork here is from the ‘less is more’ school of production, it’s nonetheless big on atmosphere with an undercurrent of drama or melody never too far away. Notable destinations on this journey include Depth of Immersion, Mind Wandering, Motionless and Perfect Stranger. Bon voyage.

07 Diamond Scent (Asllan Remix)

Does time stand still when traveling at the speed of light?
When you reach this state, in order for the light to maintain its speed, time would stop as it takes an infinite amount of time for light to reach 300 million meters.

‘Kronosphere’ is trying to define this phenomenon by reproducing the sensation of an outbursting zen state.
This is a frozen moment when everything is resonating in beautiful harmony.
The sounds are creating a sense of being transported through different sublayers of reality, resulting in a sonic voyage into the unknown depths of the psyche.

PREMIERE: Fernie - Kalyke [Indefinite Pitch]

"This EP is a sonic reflection on the political and liberating essence of partying. In today’s world, it’s often forgotten that partying is inherently political. What was once a space for resistance and self-expression has been reduced to a consumable product, shaped by capitalism, to serve as mere entertainment.

Born from the struggles and resistance of oppressed minorities, electronic music has always been a tool for rebellion and expression. House and techno, the roots of our culture, carry a legacy that defies social norms and creates spaces of freedom, meeting grounds, and reflections where boundaries are transcended. With this EP, I wanted to pay tribute to these precious spaces, these gatherings that, in some parts of the world, are forbidden yet remain sanctuaries of resistance. To dance is to liberate oneself.

To party is to come together. It’s to assert our multiple identities in the face of a system that seeks to homogenize us. In our free parties, we are who we want to be, beyond the dictates of fascism and capitalism. These spaces are havens where seeds of reflection, hope, and emancipation can grow. In a world where fascism takes root and freedoms erode, our dance floors remain places of freedom. Until our bodies can no longer move, we will dance, because to dance is to resist."

When there is silence outside under the snow
I wish I could be a stone watching from below
The cold masses would provide me with peace
A state of mind I would love to increase

When there is a sandstorm arriving in a big cloud
I want to be able to withstand it alone in a crowd
The sand would surround me and rub against my skin
Like an innocent warm embrace rocking my body within

When there is a thunderstorm with great force
I want to use the lightening as an energy source
The electricity would rejuvenate my tired soul
The loud thunder would chase me out of my black whole

When a hurricane is turning the sky pitch black
I want to be outside and bathe in its violent attack
The winds would carry me to distant lands and oceans
And the rains would nurture my starved emotions.

CPU is proud to release the new studio album from acclaimed artist Bochum Welt - ‘Seafire’.

For this new album, Gianluigi Di Costanzo, aka Bochum Welt, devoted himself to the pursuit of creating new sounds, using old monster synthesizers to produce original compositions.

This album is an evolution of the electronic style which characterized Bochum Welt’s releases on Aphex Twin's Rephlex label. ‘Seafire’ collects futuristic electro / ambient tracks, alternated with cinematic soundscapes.

Gianluigi Di Costanzo says of the release:
“Since ‘Seafire’ is an evolution of the electro sound I worked on in the past, it seemed natural to release it with Central Processing Unit, the very cool British record label which is continuing Sheffield's strong electronic music heritage.

"I've always been inspired by the Sheffield electro scene, many keyboard players I listened to in the past are from Sheffield: Martyn Ware & Ian Marsh (founding members of the Human League), Cabaret Voltaire and Mark White.”

12" vinyl LP in shrink-wrapped printed sleeve with paper inner.

Quantec alias Sven Schienhammer grew up in the '80s. Producing and remixing electronic music since 1995 first using hardware tools such as Rolands MC 505 and a 303 with some efx tools.

Now the studio is hardware and software in symbiosis. Using some oldschool synths from the 70's & 80's for the love of the lo-fi feeling of those machines! The sounds are digitized thoughts and emotions.

Personal favourite styles in music include detroit and dubby electronics, deep house, dub, roots reggae, drones, ambient and some experimental stuff. He also releases music as Monoaxial and Sven Schienhammer.
