Latest Releases

‘... çocukken eve ilk defa kablolu TV geldiği zamanı hatırlıyorum. Ben o diji kutunun içerisinde yıllarımı verdiğim çizgi kanallar ile bir haylice başbaşa kaldım. O zamandan bu zamana hammadde olarak kullandığım çocukluğumun çizgisel seslerinin hafızamdaki kırıntılarını kullanıyorum. Çizgi kanallarının renkli dünyasını gri ve işitsel bir dünyaya yerleştiriyorum...'

@fosil.eth ' in tamamını eski çizgi filmlerden sample alarak oluşturduğu 'Koordinat' EP 4 Şubat Cuma günü yayında!

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"... the first time the cable TV sat foot in our apartment I was a kid and the cartoon channels with who I spent many years were head to head for a while. Since then, I have been using the fragments of the "line-based cartoony audio" experiences of my childhood memories. I place the lurid world of the cartoon channels into a gray and auditory environment..."

The Koordinat EP of Fosil which he solely used the samples from old cartoons is on air on February 4th!

Fosil - Kox Fids

SERA013: Satellite Era presents “Sulky IDs” - a collection of raw sketches & ideas by Berhan Yıldız, better known as @fosilbass. 

Out now on all major platforms: https://smarturl.it/a7z4e3

sulk·y
/ˈsəlkē/
adjective
morose, bad-tempered, and resentful; refusing to be cooperative or cheerful.

Stationed over 5,000 miles away from our Chicago base, Turkish producer Fosil continues to rise as a prolific creator in his respective city of Istanbul. Founder of Badmash Collective, he has been a true leader of his respective underground bass music community - our newest release with him expands his credentials well past the confines of his own turf, aiming clearly towards international stardom. 

An experienced selector with an eclectic taste in modern club music, “Sulky IDs” is derived from what inspires a late night Fosil DJ set: aggressive dancefloor equations that span from raunchy breakbeats to highspeed rhythms. Advanced in nature yet rough around the edges, the release serves more as a compilation of random tracks that have slowly developed throughout Fosil’s bass excavations. With a more organic approach to it, the result feels humanizing - moody and ill-humored like himself.

Fosil’s production range is effortlessly showcased throughout “Sulky IDs.” The humorous sampling in “Allahless” and “Serial Chiller,” the floor-stomping aggression of “Askhole,” and the pristine breakbeat programming in “Refleks” all make up a sonically diverse ecosystem. Lighthearted at times, yet serious when it needs to be, “Sulky IDs” is a clear nod to UK-influenced bass music that has raided worldwide airwaves over the last few years. 

Fosil continues to upgrade his arsenal of dancefloor weaponry with a fresh batch of gloomy tunes that may be exported from Turkey, but are undeniably prepared to reshape the expanding global club sphere.

Fosil - Triflow

blackened at your thought
after the arc see my face stuck 
on the fence 
cuz the fear is enough for my chest 
i've been living under the tent 
and i felt everything that i said 
then i would, fuck what i made up 
stop to take the dot to break the cycle, wassup? 
made my mind to fake it all for sure
take the shot to lay it down to you 
but i'm done for that 
so bring it back, the truth it will stick 
calling your shit, see the cross
chasing you off, just some shots from the crib
i'll be the keeper of thoughts 
don't call when it all comes down to your tricks
with all due offence
better be cautious when i'm sawed off of your tricks 
it's hard to take in, when it's not eclectic 
and you're off to your friends 
they just a forced perspective

and you're off to your friends, they just a forced perspective 
it's hard to take in when it's not eclectic 
and you're off to your friends 
they just a forced perspective

BLACK HOODIE IN JUNE, I'M BACK TO THE ROOTS 
FIGURED THE CRAFT, YOU SAID THE ACTIONS WERE CRUEL 
LOOK AT THE STATS, YOU KNOW THE CAPTIVE, THE FOOL
IT'S SWIFT TO GRASP, YOU KNOW THE MASK IS FOR YOU

BLACK HOODIE IN JUNE, I'M BACK TO THE ROOTS 
FIGURED THE CRAFT, YOU SAID THE ACTIONS WERE CRUEL 
LOOK AT THE STATS, YOU KNOW THE CAPTIVE, THE FOOL
IT'S SWIFT TO GRASP, YOU KNOW THE MASK IS FOR YOU
AND YOU KNOW THAT I'M THROUGH
BLACK HOODIE IN JUNE
NUMBER TWO 

and you know that i'm through
know that i'm through 

it's black hoodie in june

SERA028: Satellite Era presents "Soft Soil EP" the debut project of queer multi-instrumentalist @ne3el, formerly known as Boris Donskoff.

Pre-order: https://ne3el.bandcamp.com/album/soft-soil-ep-sera028

Trekking through long and humid days of a lively summer, we find ourselves yearning to take the longer route more frequently. In an effort to capture slowed moments of the expansive world around us, we turn to an eccentric up and comer to help us master meditation through downtempo and space. 

It was only a couple short seasons ago that French artist néel introduced themselves to us, bringing forth handmade audio relics like a merchant traveling across the mountainous internet. We were enticed hearing the byproduct of computerized sounds blended with organic field recordings - a stark yet memorable contrast. We were then astonished to hear that these demos would only mark the beginning of this contemporary guitarist's journey into our sonic niche. With a little help from our vibrant and welcoming community, we planted their compelling seedlings into the damp dirt of our musical garden.

We are proud to unveil the latest strain of our creative harvest - one as sentimental as it is inventive. Welcome to "Soft Soil EP," the debut project of néel and a field guide to their search for a newfound sonic identity. The composition was mainly developed in an isolated countryside home, utilizing its calm yet hollowing ambiance as an instrument. This stripped-down site, sometimes lacking electricity, was then filled with recordings of various social encounters on the bustling streets of urban sprawls around Europe. This juxtaposition is celebrated throughout the EP, combining both realms into one that thoughtfully expresses how their heart splits in two. The introduction serves as a synopsis of the journey ahead, mashing environmental sounds drenched in reverb under their careful guitar plucks. "Antha" brings out a more synthesized approach to néel's overall intention, yet still sounds like electronica indulged in nature. "Softly Pushed" and "Restlessness" stand out as songs with city origins - recordings of mindless chatter and flailing metal coincide with the franticness of modern drum 'n' bass. The two are split by "Sagittarius," a ravishing track that effortlessly demands attention like an unforgettable live solo. "0011" allows the project to fade out with rustic trip-hop wielding an undeniable groove - it concludes with a captivating guitar piece that softly tops off the soil blend. 

"Soft Soil EP" tells the story of an artist searching for their footing, breaking the tender ground beneath them with each cautious step toward the vast ecosystem of experimental electronic music. In néel's case, the allegory digs deeper as it unearths their harmonious roots and intertwines them with the tangible world. The mixture is equal parts personal as it is musical, paving the way for what will surely be a thrilling sonic adventure.
