Teqmun - Phototropism EP [SO005]

After a long period of seclusion as the world had been dealing with a global pandemic, Teqmun emerges from the silence delicately with his first-ever EP, Phototropism.

Phototropism is the biological term for the directional response that allows plants to grow or bend towards, or in some cases away from a source of light. And just as plants, this debut EP by the Amsterdam-based DJ and producer Tijmen Blokzijl, grows and bends from soothing ambients towards more percussion-driven compositions that stimulate movement and could be taken straight to the dance floor. Filled with anticipation, colorful synth melodies make way for rhythmic drums and ominous textures, only for it to sweep back to its original state of peace and calmness. 

Already at a young age, Tijmen developed an interest in biology which later on blossomed into a vivid passion for anything plant-related. The balance between his passion for green life sciences and electronic sound design pushes Teqmun’s sound to be constantly shifting between crisp organic synths and grainy electronic tones that keep his music undeniably compelling. As his first ever EP, Teqmun intends to as it were, grow towards the light and into the public eye.

Somatic Rituals co-founder Kombé embraces flux and uncertainty on his debut EP, ‘Foreign Exchange’. He tools up five tracks built for adventurous DJs, constructed from an assemblage of liquid polyrhythms - inspired by the constant movement of foreign exchange markets and the plurality of Kombe’s own cultural and sonic references that give rise to his distinct sound.

‘Foreign Exchange’ balances function and narrative across its 25-minute length, with each track serving as a strong individual statement and as a part of a greater whole. The EP contrasts and finds common ground between disparate ideas and concepts, rooted in intelligent percussion, intentional sampling, and a synthesis of organic and machine-made sounds. It explores the parallels of currency exchange and cultural exchange, perpetually fluctuating financial markets and the shifting sands of the audio marketplace, the fetishisation of money and fetishisation in electronic music - whilst juxtaposing East African and European vocal samples over hypnotic, angular grooves that evoke traditional and ritual-based musical contexts. Rhythms slowly unfurl and coalesce into a storm, periodically settling into moments of reprieve while encouraging dancers to find their own relief in the syncopated patterns.

EP opener ‘Batian’ opens with skipping, filtered synth stabs over a stuttered kick that develops into a driving, serpentine rhythm underneath whirling atmospherics reminiscent of torn metal, sinew, and electricity. ‘Emerging Markets’ disorients you with a woozy, seasick groove underpinning a clicktrack beat, all welded to a disjointed kick that steps in and out of the arrangement, taunting a response from dancers. ‘Third Pillar’ functions as an elevated DJ tool with its galloping rhythm and bubbling hand drums that settle dancers into their hips, while vocals reminiscent of ASMR on a bad acid trip evoke the harmony and dissonance of man-machine collaboration. ‘Taarab Fragments’ moves into moodier territory, welding DNA from Swahili coastal genre Taarab to subaquatic Detroit electro atmospherics - holding a delicate tension until a darbuka line bursts through and rewards your patience. The textural, pensive, and beatless ‘Future Entropy Quest’ closes the EP with spiralling synth swirls and a looming bassline that suggests the questions provoked by the record have no clear resolution, leaving listeners to sit with the parallels of enduring volatility of markets and cultural values.

Kombé delivers a clear statement of intent with ‘Foreign Exchange’, offering a hybrid vision in the form of dance music for a freaky club or tripping forest rave that flows between worlds, cultures, and traditions with fluidity and grace.

In the frosty embrace of Berlin's winter, French Berlin DJ and Refuge Worldwide radio host, ophélie, unfurls their debut release on hundert records. We are happy to present “Electric Blue Gecko” as the single from the record. 



Following their inaugural release on the leftfield club music label "Early Reflex," they carefully craft mesmerizing, yet meditative bass music tracks. Ophélie presents her own version of the sonic vision that they explore in their monthly radio show "Therapy Dog". Influences of drum and bass meet the minimalist razor-sharp yet spacious sounds.

   

The artwork was created by Sena Oh who developed the visual style in close collaboration with ophélie. The digital fauna is presented visually through the unmistakable artistic style of the Korean Berlin artist. Whether you're tuned in with headphones or absorbed through pulsating subs of the club, get ready for an experience that transcends the dance floor.

Flower B’s debut album, Locked-In, will be out on April 11th, 2025 on a super-limited edition cassette, featuring 8 industrial club tracks. Locked up like cells in a frame, when the comic strips become reality, we all dance together for a better holiday. 
Today, in particular, every phone call, browser bug or garden neon sign literally says a lot about the world we live in. How do you feel when roads change density? Could we find ourselves on a map? Manipulating waveforms and envelopes like a physio, disrupting social communication channels to offer a spectrum on which to dance, this is why we love so much the wobbly music of dark rooms in off-plan apartments, which sway you like stellar objects. 
Based in France, Flower B seeks to transform noise and frequencies into dark drums like strong words, syllables cooking in a microwave oven. Inspired by techno, bass, dubstep and ghetto music, the album is an ode to transformation. To be released this spring on Big Science Records in a super-limited edition. Pre order now!
