SSS Podcast #142 : BLNDR

Hailing from the banlieue of Paris, currently based in the capital, Argo has spent more than a decade earning himself a reputation as one of the most recognisable 140 producers. 
 
He is now joining the label with a powerful and evocative 4-track project rooted in political tension and urgency.

Drawing on grime and dubstep foundations,
it embraces an intentionally underproduced aesthetic inspired by early scenes, fast-made, low-budget, and raw by design. The sound is saturated and abrasive, reflecting the violence and pressure of the contemporary moment.

OUT MARCH 16TH 2026

ALL TRACK WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY @argosounds
MASTER BY Max Dowling

Paris' @argosounds delivers a powerful and evocative four-track project on Miley Serious' @99CTSRCRDS, 'Guillotine', rooted in political tension and urgency. 

"This release brings together tracks that generate a constant sense of alertness and awareness, driven by grime and dubstep beats, and shaped by an exploration of what I love most: 'underproduced' music, raw, fast-made, low-budget sound aesthetics (in the spirit of early dubstep & grime)," he says.

Release Date: March 20th, 2026
Info: VESPER is the organic friction zone of Sonic Search.
After the inward collapse of TREMOR, the motion shifts sideways, close to the ground. Here, sound crawls, coils, and conceals itself. It doesn’t strike, it unsettles, diverts, enchants.

VESPER explores a forest-like, twilight imaginary, where sound matter becomes alive, almost mutating. Textures evoke moss, humus, damp bark; rhythms emerge like shadow plays — unpredictable, sometimes playful, sometimes unsettling. Groove turns oblique and elusive, built on misdirection rather than impact.
Between twisted breaks, organic bass forms, altered trance structures and experimental rhythms, genres blur into a living ecosystem. Nothing is frontal; everything is detour, trickery, hidden movement. Each track feels like a fleeting apparition, a presence that vanishes just as it seems graspable.

VESPER brings together artists with singular and complementary approaches:

*PREMIERE* Qant - Hypothermia

*ITAITAITA (catalog number *asterisco005)

We are opening this new year for *asterisco with a project that is incredibly close to our hearts one we have poured immense energy and passion into. It represents the union of many different minds coming together to champion a shared musical intent within the club scene. In a challenging era for Italian nightlife, where spaces are being closed and the struggle to host events is real, we have managed to create something truly beautiful.
This marks the fifth release for *asterisco. Every step we’ve taken so far has been driven by pure passion, and we feel that 2026 will be the fundamental year to finally share not just our own sound, but the incredible talent and vision that Italy has to offer.


*ITAITAITA is a collective statement born from dialogue. Before any music was written or selected, there were conversations long talks, exchanges of ideas, shared doubts, and visions. Even while physically distant, we felt the same need emerging: to create something together, without constraints and without forcing identities into fixed shapes. This project doesn’t come from the label alone; it was intentionally built with all the artists involved. *asterisco simply became the space where this shared intention could exist a place that allowed freedom, trust, and openness to take form through sound.


*ITAITAITA is not a definitive manifesto, but a common direction. It is a way of approaching music that values thinking forward, evolution, and mutual listening over rigid definitions. In a landscape as rich and fragmented as the Italian scene, this compilation stands as one possible path open, inclusive, and in constant dialogue with others. Moving across the Italian peninsula, the compilation embraces different musical experiences and histories that have evolved over time: from techno to house, from downtempo to drum and bass, these are not genres to be boxed in, but languages shaped by context, experimentation, and personal background.
