'Basement Philosophy', the long-awaited debut album from Glasgow’s legendary Domenic Cappello, is out Friday 2nd March on Alien Communications.

Domenic started making music under his Hutton Drive alias over 20 years ago, releasing on Soma Records and through his own label, Seven Sign Recordings. More recently, his productions have featured on Sub Club’s Nautilus Rising, Verdant Recordings and Alien Communications.

Cappello’s very own Subculture sound is present throughout 'Basement Philosophy', in which he travels through varying sonic textures and moods, to create something which is captivating and potent in equal measure. Introductory track 'Mushroom Waltz' eases the listener in through a combination of dreamy pads and upbeat chords, before 'Midnight with T' moves into more soulful territory with a New York-inspired cut which is both moody and spacious. 'Early Flight' manages to build a cerebral atmosphere, whilst possessing the snapping drums which are so characteristic of what you can expect to hear from Dom in full flow. 

'Acid Rain' carries an air of nostalgia around it, as Cappello turns to a vocal sample from friend and house music luminary Kerri Chandler’s seminal house anthem 'Rain', utilising the lyrics in a way which perfectly complements the gradual progression of the track towards a powerful, acid-tinged crescendo. This rising intensity is also present on '3am Jamaica Street', a throbbing, peak-time belter which would no-doubt be best listened to through Sub Club’s pulsating sound system. A different type of atmosphere is created on 'Moon Jump,' where languid melodies allow to create a track which does justice to the inspiration of the more house-orientated work of classic Underground Resistance. 

'Basement Philosophy' rounds off with two more electro-inspired euphonies, which signifies why Domenic Cappello and Alien Communications are such an appropriate pairing. 'Burning Past’ is a blissful, floating number whereas 'Not for Instagram DJs' is an aptly-named way to conclude the album, with a driving, floor-focused beat providing a fitting and dynamic finale. Imagine Marty Bonds meets Glenn Underground.

The work 'The day begins with a loud boom' interrogates the manner and extent to which we are defined by our relationship to the physical environment, and the cultural import of the tools and techniques of production. Its imagery derives from a series of residencies in industrial sites, focussing notably on diamond cutting and the fabrication of automotive glassware. It follows the trajectories of the materials subjected to those processes, and presents the traces of human intervention of which those materials are both the object and the repository.

The succeeding reiterations of the ostinato the day begins with are treated graphically by its progressive effacement, evoking the tension in assembly line work between repetition and linearity, accumulation and exhaustion, trace and erasure. Such attrition is equally conveyed by the harsh, impassive, and architectural qualities of both the images and the music which accompany the text. The latter notably deploys a range of insidious effects, from the marriage of dissonance and unsettling rhythm evocative of the competing cycles of multiple industrial machines, to sensual and reassuring sonorities which are contaminated by their contrast with the harsh acoustic aesthetic elsewhere.

Round two of introducing the hosts :-) 

Listen back to Pancake 008 with SK Libra. This stunning atmospheric set was recorded well over 2 years ago, when this show was still nothing but an idea. Now, it's very much alive (have we already mentioned how *good* it is to be back??) and finally having it on the airwaves felt super special.
Listen back and let this extended set take you on a journey. Stay till the end for a cute interview between the hosts <3


Pancake Enorme - every third Sunday of the month 6-7pm on Sphere Radio.

Pancake 008 - SK Libra [Extended Set + Interview]

First release in 2024, its a imperfect track which I fucked up my digitakt output setting, and cause me couldn't individually mix with some of the elements. 

But I think its a pretty nice track that I recently made, so I decided to release casually to share my progress on music production. It is free to download, please let me know if you have any comment!
