in the wake of dead dogs and love

they first crossed my path long ago. they slithered beneath my bed, scratched the attic walls, and crept into my thoughts. they still reside there, guiding me away from sorrow. when the cold wind stirs, 
i sense them-softly, almost imperceptibly,
their voices echo backward, stretched and broken, like the whispers of worn-out tapes. their faces blur and scatter. like fading stains that trickle through the corners of the room. they’ve walked beside me through life, cradling, calming, loving, and kissing my brow before sleep. they are the reflection of the great nightmare.
those dogs are dead, their bodies rotten.

Aerae - Nefanda [SMDE51]

Released on Limited Edition Marbled 12" and Digital

Collector’s Special Edition Limited to 50 copies and exclusive to Bandcamp and voidvinyl.eu

Plying refracted rhythms with an exacting poise, Aerae arrives on Samurai Music with a fully formed sound that plumbs the depths between techno immersion and D&B beat science.

An accomplished, palpable tension runs throughout Nefanda, Aerae’s second solo release. Following up on the meditative pulse of her debut album on Annulled Music last year, the Paris-based artist digs deeper into ominous atmospheres filled with evocative reverb decays and taut, dynamic drum work — tools she wields to render tracks with specific meaning, coded by the Latin framing that runs through all aspects of her musical output. Contemplating the ancient language as an inescapable part of her European roots, on Nefanda Aerae ruminates on external trials and inner impulses, and conjures a jaw-clenching soundtrack to match.

Finding her own language within the dialogue between techno, D&B and dark ambient, Aerae’s music makes a vivid impression thanks to the ideas and intention that drive her in the studio. Nefanda confirms her status as a leading light in deep, psychedelic dance music, making something extremely personal that also reaches out beyond notions of the self like all the best transcendental music.

Aerae - Nefanda [SMDE51]

The PCL label is pleased to introduce Irish musician from Dublin Johnny McDowell aka cable.percussion.

Over the past few years he has released several releases on labels such as Aduaine, Intellitronic Bubble and Computer Controlled, participated in a compilation on Tripalium Corp.

Debut "Bleach EP" is a synthesis of acid aesthetics and digital avant-garde, in which fragile IDM pads are mixed with biting breakbeats, forming musical landscapes that flow from melancholic abstraction to powerful rhythmic culminations. And 303 sequencing goes beyond the usual acid sound and turns into a sterling instrument of expressive narrative, which is a characteristic recognizable style of the artist

"London based label Natural Selection present their forthcoming release in the form of a 4-track 12" EP, courtesy of Swarm Intelligence, entitled "Radiance". Radiance is an impeccably crafted experimental Techno EP, which redefines genre parameters.

Born in Dublin and now firmly based in Berlin, Simon Hayes aka Swarm Intelligence has cemented his place in the Techno underground with critically acclaimed LPs and EPs on labels such as 47, Instruments of Discipline and Voitax. He returns to Natural Selection, after releasing his track "Generative" on the label's latest VA release; "Natural Selection: Selected Works Vol. 1" in 2024. Featuring amongst an extensive list of heavyweight label affiliates such as SHXCXCHCXSH, Charlton, ASEC, Nørbak, MAEDON, Annie Hall & more. After further connections with the label via live performances at their regular label nights at FOLD London, it was inevitable that Simon would be invited to release a solo EP on their imprint.

His distinctive sound comes from over a decade of releases spanning multiple genres and tempos and oscillates between rhythmic noise, tense atmospherics, uncompromising levels of distortion, and stark, astute beats. This resolutely non-conformist approach to his productions has earned him a reputation as a true trailblazer in the realm of Techno and has led him to perform at some of the world's finest institutions including Berghain, Tresor and Basement NY.

For "Radiance", Swarm intelligence delves further into the sonic unknown, presenting a bold evolution in his uncompromising vision of Techno. Deep, fragmented textures form the backdrop for thunderous, distorted rhythms and IDM-laden drums and percussion, fused with meticulously designed cinematic soundscapes and powerful low-end muscle. Fierce, unrelenting, and deeply conceptual, all rules and boundaries are smashed to pieces and all tracks are equally suitable for blasting through the world's biggest club systems and rigs as they are for home listening."
