Otherworldly sounds pulsed from different structures around the huge field, each housing their own unique sonics, decor and crowd. Throughout the night people journeyed around these spaces, hoping that whatever lay inside would reinvigorate or relax their mind and body. By dawn, the effects of the night had taken their toll, and bodies had become spirits floating in the air, far above solid ground...

2013 marked Moscow duo Simple Symmetry's first musical outing, and since they've notched up eight more EPs for labels like Disco Halal, Low Budget Family and XXX. Now, following three years of blood, sweat and tears, they're putting out their first long player 'Sorry! We Did Something Wrong' into the world.

Made up of 11 tracks, the album signals a different and more expansive sound than their previous efforts. Pulling from a host of different eras and influences—there's nods to early and mid 90s artists like Weatherall, Death In Vegas and St Etienne, while at other moments they dive into 60s and 70s grooves, licks and harmonies à la Beach Boys and The Monkees. Crafting their own singular sound world, full of colourful and psychedelic sonics bursting with flutes, cello, synths, sitar, guitars and percussion, the pair have made a wonderful record that is "a tonic for these uncertain times".

PREMIERE : Nicola Cruz - Tzantza (Simple Symmetry Remix) [Multi Culti]

A remix pack is nothing more than the universe experiencing its own dance music subjectively. With this in mind, we took Ecuadorian sound-seer Nicola Cruz’s latest audiovisions and refracted them through the minds of some of the world’s hottest young cultural interpreters. To provide you with the best possible approximation of what the results feel like, we then sent an intern to loiter outside a local Heart-Opening Ceremony to get people’s unfiltered reactions just moments after they awakened to their new place in the universal order.

"Mexicali (Simple Symmetry remix)" by Polo & Pan

Curated by: Brendan Boland

Spotify: http://bit.ly/MexicaliPoloandPan

Genre: #frenchhouse

The first time I heard Polo & Pan I leapt off my couch, grinned as wide as the court gesture in Disney’s Hunchback of Notre Dame, and gave way to a revelry that scared my dog and worried my wife. Since, they’ve played Coachella, they’ve released a few collaboration tracks (check out "Lost in Time" with Fakear and "Cadenza" with Yusek), and their Circle video – shot in the middle of a carnival tent -- may be one of my favorite live recordings to date.

"Mexicali’"s bells and whistles lead to a sonic plunge into the weird that help creates the group’s distinct sound: a Tim Burton-esq Carnivàle.that entices one to dawn technicolor masks, an impish grin and a wild gait. The lyrics, however, speak of another truth. Sonically a wild ride, the song’s lyrics describe “La Bestia”, also known as “el tren de la muetre” – a network of freight trains that create an underground railroad for migrants, refugees, and others to cross from Mexico into the U.S.

Simple Symmetry’s remix twists and transforms the original’s song into a darker carousel, while maintaining the original’s theme – impending danger, adrenaline, and ominous fate. Here, the bells no longer call forth as a beacon of unbridled imagination. Instead, they seem to offer a last warning before we fully emerge in the harsh, almost inhuman world.

Simple Symmetry (Sasha and Sergey Lipsky) is a brother duo from Moscow. Signing to Disco Halal records for their early releases, the tandem is known for mixing world rhythms and instruments over darker, psychedelic sounds. As in this remix, their songs weave narratives best suited to reverberate across a concrete shadows of the underground.

Stevie R - Melt (The Editions) - Part I
Label: Chapter 24 Records 
Release date: 15 November 2019
https://soundcloud.com/chapter-24
https://soundcloud.com/stevie-r
https://soundcloud.com/simple-symmetry

On his debut album Melt, Stevie R brought us the sounds of rebetronica, his very own fusion of the rebetiko music he was raised on during his childhood in Greece with the latest in forward-looking off kilter house and techno music.
Allying himself with the Egyptian poet and glitch producer CERPINTXT and Turkish singer/songwriter Djanan Turan, he delivered a wonderful LP. Now, through the Editions of Kincaid, Simple Symmetry and Martin Buttrich, the album is presented in a new light with a set of fresh and powerful remixes.
They do not disappoint. Londoner Kincaid (Aeon, Anjunadeep, Futureboogie) reimagines Botsa Botsa into a killer starry, widescreen slow disco cut powered by a hypnotic acid line. Meanwhile, Disco Halal heroes Simple Symmetry draw inspiration from rave-era Prodigy to create a reworking of Delias, which is equal parts incredible and insane. Dancefloor destruction is assured.
The package finishes with two versions of Gkii from the legendary Martin Buttrich, who draws on a classic and rolling deep house vibe for his glitch inspired Class A Edition, along with his Blib Dub. The days of rave are here again. Part I has fully delivered; watch out for Part II of Stevie R’s Melt Editions in the New Year.
