Echo w/ DYL - 5th of April 2024

We are so proud to share a very special announcement with you today.

Come Meditate is launching two new podcast series, following on the legacy of our CM Mix series.

Entire presents Sonic Spells. Ambient, IDM and experimental leaning series where artists are given an unbounded safe space to share their sonic wizardy of the highest sort. It will also be a place to promote local talent and make a spotlight for deeply sensitive music souls.

CrissNSA presents Memoirs Of A Soundman. We will share more details along with the first episode which will be uploaded soon!

First instalment of Sonic Spells sees the curator himself, Entire, present his first mix since a very long time. Contains carefully selected pieces that deeply resonate with his soul. Music from Undveld, Skee Mask, Ekin Fil, ENA, Felix Krone, Cloistral, Forest On Stasys, RVSHES, The Vision Reels, DB1, Fresnel Lens, Yosuke Tokunaga, Monic and a fair share of his own (unreleased & released) music.

This is an extended and modified version of his live set "Contemplations On Love" performed on 14.02.2024 at Love Your Soma event held in Transformator, Wrocław.

PREMIERE : Kletis - Mukamura [CODX006]

Released on 2 Limited Vinyl Edition 12"s and Digital - https://voidvinyl.eu/products/brendon-moeller-vacuum

Esteemed musical chameleon Brendon Moeller, renowned for his highly respected work in Deep Ambient, Dub Techno and a myriad of variations on these themes - turns his hand to 170 for Samurai Music.

Vacuum is the first fruits of this collaboration and encompasses a cross section of his approach to the tempo. Dub-wise 170 that hints at a deeper version of autonomic, but ultimately invents a new sound that only Brendon and his analogue dungeon could conjure. 30 years of mastering the art of the deep filtered through an all new tempo lens.

Vacuum is a gentle 6 track record that will become a close companion to those tuned to, or open to embracing the rewards of Brendons impeccable sound design and mastery of immersive, minimalist warmth.

Brendon Moeller - Vacuum [SMDE45] *previews*

We are insanely excited to present a crazy and non-trivial set by Cursor Miner filled with exclusive material. Cursor Miner is the musical Nom De Plume of electronic music producer Robert Tubb from Selsey,  UK. 
He has produced six albums, released on Lo Recordings, Uncharted Audio, Sine Language Records. His styles range from full-on Acidic Electro Bass club stompers to experimental New Wave synth pop, through avant garde abstract noise constructions all the way to tongue-in-cheek educational songs for infants (and the infantile at heart). 
Cursor Miner has also produced club-focused 12”s and EPs for Jerome Hill’s Don’t Recordings and Bleeper, Si Begg’s Noodles, Combat Recordings, Unbearable Recordings, Addictech, Seed Records, and more.
He has performed live sets in fifteen countries, in varied venues such as a Bohemian hilltop castle, a Soviet nuclear bunker, a disused London underground station, a Norfolk windmill, and the former headquarters of the International Olympic Committee. Legendary festival appearances include Sonar, Latitude, Glade Festival, Unorthodox Paradox, Norberg, and Bloc Weekender.
Since 2015 he has been based in Berlin, developing synthesizers and audio effects for Ableton such as Wavetable, Spectral Resonator and Meld.

What new projects/releases with your participation are expected in the near future?

- I am about to release part two of the dystopian electro EP series Apocalypse Incorporated on Bandcamp. This will feature some of the tracks heard in this here mix. I also have a new album of songs with vocals coming out this year. This will be probably the most downtempo thing I've ever done - themed around death and mortality, jolly vibes all round!

Which artists/labels is more relevant to you now?

- I think my recent electro binge was triggered by Carl Finlow (Silicon Scally), his stuff always has that magical groove to it. Unfortunately, maybe because I'm not a DJ, I tend not really to follow labels so much I'm also quite out of touch when it comes to the current scene! Also being a bit old, “recent” to me now means anything in the last 10 years...

My music taste is also so wide ranging that the amount of time I spend actually listening to dance music has diminished quite a lot since the internet gave us access to literally anything. Outside of electronic mucic I'm also heavily into Matt Berry's stuff, I knew him from his comedy work but turns out he's a great songwriter also.
I just recently started learning to play bongos, and have this random fascination with classic funk stuff and latin big bands like Tito Puente, even though I would never make anything remotely like it I still find it inspiring rhythmically. The subtlety and feel that real percussionists manage is something for all electronic beatmakers to aspire to.

What inspires you now to create music?

- It can be all sorts, it could be a track I hear in a club that just makes me want to make something vaguely comparable, it could be a modular patching demo on youtube, or even a book. I just read The Creative Electronic Musician by Thomas Brett and its full of tips and tricks that all just make me want to fire up the stuff and get making things. Sometimes I'll just be out cycling or something and a beat or a phrase will pop into my head, I'll record it into my phone using my mouth and then months later will pick it up again and try to recreate it for real.

What set-up do you use when creating music?

- I have a Dave Smith Tempest and a Novation Summit for drum machine and synth duties, also a Eurorack system for the more crazy sound design and generative explorations. Hardware is fun and inspiring, but at the end of the day I just find I really need the precision of a DAW to get the sound I want.

Homemade Weapons & close US ally Red Army inaugurate the relaunched Samurai Music label with four minacious rhythmic workouts aimed squarely at the informed dance-floor.

Homemade Weapons & Red Army - Sleep Terror

Bandcamp: http://found.ee/SMDELP01BC
iTunes: http://found.ee/NSIT

'Negative Space' is the debut LP from Seattle, USA resident Andre Delgado, known to most as Homemade Weapons. A producer with a long history in Drum and Bass, his career hit a powerful stride around 2012 when a stripped back, militant, half speed version of the genre began emerging. Andre was in the leading charge of producers perfecting this new minimal approach. Using classic jungle break edits as rapid-fire emphasis tools on top of mood-soaked, half-time, kick drum driven rhythms, the Homemade Weapons style quickly became recognised as one of the most unique and effective approaches to emerge from this experimentation.

Following on from a slew of successful singles for Samurai Music and his own label Weaponry from 2013-2016, 'Negative Space' is the result of a refinement, an individual artist perfecting his craft. Eschewing the 'filler' approach often taken by dance music artists approaching a full length LP, 'Negative Space' is 12 tracks of what Homemade Weapons does best - essential dance-floor weapons for those tuned in to this new strain of Drum and Bass.

Red Army & Homemade Weapons - Hyperboles : Outliers : 1 [Samurai Music : Bandcamp Exclusive]

Taken from Outliers:1

Selecting tunes for releases on Samurai Music is difficult as there is so many great tunes on offer. The absolute cream of what we get sent makes it to releases on vinyl, so resisting the temptation of digital only releases creates a backlog of high quality tunes. Outliers is a collection of music from the Samurai family of artists that were all in contention for vinyl release, but for one reason or another slipped through the cracks. Most of these are still in heavy rotation in many of our DJ sets, so rather than hogging them, we put together a collection for a Bandcamp only release. Most of these have never been played by more than a few select Samurai DJ’s and the producer themselves. Outliers shows the depth of talent these producers have with these sitting on their HD’s without a home. We don’t plan on moving into the digital only release field any time soon so maybe we can have this series as a semi regular substitute.
