Release Date: 24th September 2021

Album notes by Karl Meier:

The culmination of a working relationship that started in 2019, "Godless" is the first full-length release from Jonathan "Stave" Krohn (also known for his work as half of Talker on Downwards) and Thomas "Karim Maas" Cooper. After a joint live p.a. with labelmates in Bristol (suggested by UVB-76 label co-owner Nick Callaghan) a shared interest in both Birmingham-influenced techno, as well as forward-thinking bass and breaks music, led to further collaborations, with Krohn and Cooper pushing rhythm tracks and loops back and forth from their home studios based out of Chicago and Bristol respectively.

"Godless" finds Krohn and Cooper in fine form - it's a cinematic, richly detailed recording that represents some of their best material to date. After a tension-filled "Interlude", the LP kicks off with the brooding, slow- motion "Loop 002", melding scorched-earth/salted ground textures with blackened dub sonics to devastating effect. "D_A_T" follows, a throbbing industrial techno track with a mind-meltingly abrasive and psychedelic breakdown and conclusion. Side A finishes with "Blakk", a desolate, wind-swept landscape that cuts to the bone.

The second half picks up where the first half left off, with opener "track4" - all ominous atmospherics, howling feedback, and existential dread. "Project 1" and "Plan" are LP highlights here - both relentless rhythmic juggernauts that ratchet up the tension and never let up - all nervous energy and pulse-quickening suspense. The release concludes with the title track, a cacophonous and cauterising piece with evocative vocal samples and blasts of harsh noise.

@algeasounds

Algea's sound is shrouded in dark and unusual atmospheres, often torn apart by sudden cuts and left turns to the unexpected. Blissed out weirdness meets jazz chords suspended over purist drone and minimal melodies.

His latest track 'Her' features on the recent @earthmovementsound Vol.2 compilation, evoking uneasy modern sci-fi soundtrack textures, via tension-building keyboard loops within hostile windy environments. 

This mix features lot's of his own unreleased material and more.

A soft collage of airy Idm bumps, this set lets you navigate between contrasts of gritty and organic textures. Sacre, co-founder of the collective Plor, instinctively fused those track together with the warmth of melancholy without shying away from heavier bass coming in at the time and at the right place.

South Korean born y micah is now based in Naarm, Australia. Amidst the dungeons of polymorphic programmed rhythms, a post apocalyptic essence permeates his passage into a hyper-futuristic sound realm, retracing steps of squarepushing intellidance. Swampy ambiences appears unclearly over bottomless bass fogs, writing a dark narrative which seeks to conjure disoriented feelings upon a chimeric audio adventure, where @micahahahahah is currently studying multidimensional noise values.

Glad to share with you the first volume of our new mix series, lazed. A monthly rendez-vous imagined as a new playground of musical expression focused on listening music. 

For this first episode, we're glad to welcome the artist Elvira. Inspired by her different sound practices in the performing arts and the electro-acoustic environment, she owns a very singular take on electronic music that is slowly making its way to ears around Europe. 

Elvira: « I imagined a cockroach wandering in a desert, the sun hitting hard causing dehydration leading to hallucinations. Sometimes voices appear, other times insects squeak. At some point the cockroach is tormented cus it falls on his back and is incapable of turning around. »
