LUCYNA TAPE 01: Nowa Ziemia [LUCYNA002] is the first installment of a brand new series of compilations that tries to capture the elusive spirit of mysterious LUCYNA festival - the highly conceptual party and the holiday of half year's - an imaginary tradition that the crew tries to cultivate since 2018 experimenting with the form of an event and doing it bit different each time.


'Nowa Ziemia' - the name of one of the scenes at this year's edition - became a sort of laboratory for contemporary dance music taken beyond the obvious context of the club into the bosom of nature. Just like inclusive gatherings away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this compilation provokes reflection on dance as a form of individual expression.

Tracklist: 

1 TAMTEN - The Real World (club dub)
2 Solo Gemini - Daphne
3 DJ Duch - Opętanie (giallo mix)
4 DYYU∩E - All Those Moments Will Be Lost In Time Like Tears
5 Jazxing - Zorza
6 Lotus Reaction - Atlantic City Center
7 shjva - french k
8 Freux - Jama
9 Universo - Jan Tomaszewski Grzmi
10 vanquisher - XII
11 fopa - du not
12 mount terror - npoty
13 szkoda - ra-tings bonanza
14 TAMTEN & Kreshik - Mole Dub
15 Ivan Bayor - Habitual Responses

Slow Down

KATAKOMBA is a mini album by Kyiv’s (now based in Berlin) musician Chaosy (@user-254987138). This release has been in store for almost exactly a year. We planned to announce KATAKOMBA on February 24, 2022, a day that also happened to be the first day of russia’s full-scale invasion. 

One year later, we finally feel ready to share this project that so much work and thought has gone into. Now it feels like something from a different lifetime, yet, somehow, these 6 tracks boldly fit with our feelings of the present.

Bogdan Temchenko aka Chaosy is a noteworthy representative of Kyiv underground’s young blood. Fully self-taught Bogdan joined his very first metal band at the age of 13. Then he started performing at places such as the sleazy (quintessential) local venue Barvy.

Bogdan’s upbringing in the grainy basements of Kyiv’s punk pubs found reflection in his ideology and his music. He is currently active in two bands: black metal formation Angel, where he plays drums and a post-punk project Lyrica, where he sings and plays guitar. 
 While devoted to analog sound, in recent years Bogdan has been finding it more and more difficult to get together with his bandmates, so he started experimenting with electronic music on his own. That’s how his solo project Chaosy came to life. 

Following his two ambitious self-released albums, Standard Deviation is proud to present  KATAKOMBA – a 6 track mini album that comes together as a meditative exercise on the subjects of mysticism and desolation. Choosy’s third album is an expressive and multifaceted work that weaves together a unique strain of black metal-post punk-electronics with a tenor of esotericism.

 ‘I spend a lot of time observing the world around me, and, for some reason, it’s the darkness of it all that inspires me most’ – says Bogdan. He describes writing music as a natural instinct, almost a need: 

‘Working on this album was sort of a trance-like experience. I just followed my intuition and, to be honest, I didn’t really think about the processes. When I was finished, everything just fell into place. It felt like coming back from a dark trip’.

KATAKOMBA offers a broad spectrum of influences that range from Electro and IDM (Joomangy In Da Hurashami) to Electro-infused Punk (Shaolean, BlackBoat, Wrestling of Sleeping Minds, Borderline) and Post-Punk (Solstice). The state of saudade, evoked by the bursts of fragile voice lines and electric guitars is present throughout the entire album and finds final manifestation in the epilogue track ‘Solstice’.
  
KATAKOMBA is aggressive, yet melancholic. It’s a heady experience into a previously unexplored direction for Standard Deviation, but just a glimpse into what the more gritty side of Kyiv’s underground has to offer.

The first single of the album, Shaolean, is out now. 
KATAKOMBA is out on March 8th.

Alek Lee - The Back Door (Original Mix)

Montreal’s sapphic mixxtress, the elusive mogul Maara (@maara), unveils her debut full length LP via Step Ball Chain (@stepballchain). A pairing written in the stars, with twelve dynamically diverse and emotive soundscapes of downtempo bliss, spine-chilling drum and bass and elevated electronica - timeless anthems for sonic indulgence and reflection. Take a deep dive into the sensually charged inner workings of the already prolific producer’s mind.

An effervescent atmosphere envelopes it’s way through the records entirety, whether it be gloriously lush pads, melancholic words and whispers from her own lips or subterrantian bass. Maara’s world of sound showcases the wild spectrum of emotion, the empathetic passion of joy in Awaken, Plum Plum and Sapphic Rehabilitation Centre alongside the darkness of Insidious Force or Rough ‘N’ Ready. But like most things, the purest beauty can be found within the grey areas, where majority of this records lies. A powerful ebb and flow between cloudy twilight and it’s recurring silver lining, Nothing...  more

Once upon a time, on the eastern bank of The White River, when the fertile lands witnessed the most tremendous flames that had ever occurred, a divine spirit appeared blandly in the foggy waters. Cloaked in black garments, with ink-fish rings adorning every single finger and an ophidian mark on the countenance, the uncanny figure emerged from the water and extinguished the inferno as it slowly walked towards the scorching lands. Known as "Personal Sauveur" by the people, the figure began revealing the essence of the creative life force to the first Kalamari tribe and then vanished swiftly.

At the dawn of a makeshift civilization, the "Personal Sauveur" icon started to be venerated throughout the Kalamari empire. The people chose to forsake their sun-worshipping beliefs and all associated symbols of oppression. Instead, the believers embraced an alternative way of life: harvesting forest fruits under the dark starry nights, transforming their lucid dreams into ritual chants, venerating earthly spirits in plural form, paying reverence to the sacred waters, and transforming every sickness into a profound body of knowledge. For centuries, the Kalamari mankind lived in peaceful harmony until the wicked despots returned and decimated the entire population. It marked the end of an era, so they say...

In 2020, a fortuitous discovery was made when a suitcase filled with mummified ink-fish rings was found in the swampy soils of a Brussels suburb. The antique treasure quickly captivated the Pathfinder's imagination. After some time, he decided to delve deeper into the lost civilization and felt compelled to revive it. He felt a strong sense of duty to embark on the "Personal Sauveur" quest, with everything beginning in the birthplace. As he set foot on the promised land, he found himself amidst dilapidated concrete social projects, shattered ethanol bottles strewn across the streets, GHB-infused strippers haggling at bus stops, and renowned bench street poets.

In the heart of the megalopolis, the trio crossed paths at Bazar Olimpia one day while searching for specific weaponry and began discussing the destruction of symbols of oppression. Soon after, they united their weapons and devised a master plan to rewrite history once more. Drawing inspiration from post-communist and early capitalist field recordings, French-Polish slang slug rhymes, proto-paleo synth wave, and Eastern riddims, the band created a danceable and mesmerizing journey through the shanty town.

The debut album opens with 'Hydra Psalm,' a preaching ode to the tribe believers infused with a kosmische psych-rock undertone. 'Bania Maryja' refers to the symbol of oppression, the Virgin Maria, imposed during the Christian era. It combines Brussels-slang experimental rap with an abyssal scream groove. The terrestrial beat of "Praga Medina" takes you on a lighthearted cruise through the district, capturing all its distinctive delights. 'The Kalamari People' presents a linguistic reinterpretation of the lost tribe dialect through modern calypso-xylo and infectious thumpadumpa rhythms. And last but not least, 'Kikimora' is a mechanical dark-o-punk tribute to the capricious witch of the night.

Voal - Saffron
ISO001

Dutch dance troupe ISOTOOP inaugurates its label with a quaternity of sly rhythms to mystify and elevate. Adhering to ISOTOOP’s unstated yet practised mantra of many growing as one, the culprits behind the pieces are none other than core family members Shoal (Kenny Kneefel) and Vand (Viktor van der Riet), unifying for the first time under the name of Voal.

The longtime friends and compatriots in sound meld together to form a distinct entity; aligned as one, but audibly a product of their individual approaches. Across the four cuts, the two producers share a singular vision of club music, designed to initiate movement and shake the floor, while leaving essential space for thought and imagination.

From the low-down and dirty funk of ‘Carpet Crawler’ to ‘Take My Hand’s bleary and dazed downtempo, evaporating in its final moments into transcendent closing ambience, Voal journey through a wide landscape of club electronics with a fervent pulse. Pinned between the two slower joints are ‘Luficer’, a consecutive tumble through iterated rolling percussion and minimal basslines, and the kinetic, high-tempo fiesta of ‘Saffron’, a sure-fire favourite for the ecstatic midnight.

Thick like warm tar, and airy as steam, Voal’s debut whets the appetite for more.
