DaRand Land, who hails from the post industrial confines of Buffalo, NY was one of the leading figures of Deep4Life, a cult label known for submersible oriented, yet dancefloor-friendly productions. With ambient synth-driven tones and heavy funk basslines being at the center of his sound, DaRand Land’s music often evokes an introspective quality, without losing its groove fundamental.

Following on from a number of releases on Pulp, Downbeat, Urban Imagery and the “Discover You” EP on Scissor & Thread, here is Nature Of Reality, the single taken from DaRand Land’s second album Wander Being, released on Scissor & Thread in late November 2024. 





“In particular, the single, The Nature of Reality”, says DaRand, “was written to convey a sense of what it feels like to be in a state of suspended animation. There is a natural tension introduced via the organic, swirling pad progression juxtaposed against endless vocal echoes and the low-end groove of the bassline. Thematically, I wanted to carry this forward through the entirety of the album.”

Following RDS's E-mutations, De Lichting ventures into a new chapter with their latest releases, transitioning from a focus on collective synergy to intimate, individual storytelling from its core artists.

Nathan Kofi’s upcoming debut album I Am That I Am stands as the next sonic statement from the De Lichting—a personal odyssey reflecting growth, deep introspection, and identity. The album takes listeners on a personal journey through time. Each track, crafted over several years, reflects a dynamic evolution, passing through multiple phases of growth and experimentation. This carefully curated collection connects the dots between past and present, weaving together a cohesive sonic experience.

Inspired by Peter Tosh’s iconic 1977 anthem, Kofi’s album title embodies a powerful declaration of self-identity, independence, and inner strength, embracing the spirit of individuality as both a message and a movement. The album explores Kofi’s internal struggle between taking responsibility and evading it—a paradox, which can be interpreted from either perspective.

The six-track album sees Kofi navigating new creative territory. WOLKEN stands out with its fusion of Dutch lyrics and a hip-house-leaning ambient foundation, effortlessly bridging introspective soundscapes with minimalistic drum paterns. Meanwhile, EGO and EFUA dive deeper into IDM-inspired textures and broken beats, evoking ’90s-era nostalgia with layers that nod to artists like Plaid. These three tracks are further elevated by one-minute visualizers created by Djoa Lekatompessy (Hittegolf Studio), which feel more like evocative short films, enhancing the multi-sensory storytelling and adding depth to the album’s themes.

The remaining tracks, OKAERI, DJAI, and WEKŪ, invite listeners straight to the dance floor, propelled by a steady four-to-the-floor pulse. These tracks highlight Kofi’s knack for crafting emotionally resonant house anthems, drawing dancers inward while syncing their external body movements to the pulse of 909 drums, the Deluge Synthstrom, and lush LEM Bit Crumar pads.

I Am That I Am Releases: December 6th.

The EEE EP is the all fresh debut from Ensam, local vandal and core member of Solkyss. Born and raised troublemaker, he dropped out of school to make his way in to music. Luckily he could spend his days hiding in his fathers basement which resulted in his project progressing secretly over the years granting him a distinct cinematic groove with deep and atmospheric aesthetics.
