The Canadian label Chez.Kito.Kat Records publishes the new LP “Idiocratic Trance Music” by french duo KLUSA DABA. After having already released in 2018 their first glitch idm EP “Landscape”, they are coming back with a totally different mood on this new LP focused on trance experimentation. 
ITM (Idiocratic Trance Music) is a commercial product resulting from the intensive modification of EDMmainstream samples. The album contains 99% loops from commercial “sample packs”. These sound objects are crushed, transformed and deconstructed to make a work with a synthetic and scintillating aesthetic. The use of initial materials that we hated, however, allowed the design of a coherent post-trance album with grainy textures and punchy synths. We want to challenge the excessive commercialization of music where each sound becomes a product and each preset a source of profit. This album allows us to question the relationship between sound and its use. A sound, today, is just an object that must be sold.

Embark on an exhilarating musical odyssey with Neida's latest "Can't Get Enough EP", a mesmerizing follow-up to his standout contribution on June 2023's "Good Vibes Vol. 1". 
Unveiling a sincere exploration of sound and emotion through three original tracks and four remixes, blending rhythm and intensity in a way that keeps hearts racing and dance floors alive.

The EP's title track, "Can't Get Enough," thrusts us into a realm of frenetic beats and palpable energy, creating an immersive experience that feels both sweaty and liberating, while "Hydro" delves into aquatic dreamscape intertwining distortion and trap influences. 
"Trainwreck" propels the listener forward at breakneck speed, capturing the essence of a high-speed locomotive leading us to four visionary remixes adding a kaleidoscope of perspectives to the EP. 

Miss Jay's daring reinvention of "Dirty" sets the tone, with an intense video game-inspired groove evolving into drum and bass, infused with neurofunk influences. Portway's remix of "Can't Get Enough" takes the original into uncharted territories, fusing elements of dnb and electro, creating a futuristic yet vintage sonic landscape.
Galtier's reimagining of "Hydro" paints a sonic picture of fluidity, with a pacey, liquid-esque roller vibe that elevates the track into a conscious, heightened state of mind. Subsism then takes the reins, delving into dub, grime, and trance influences in the remix of "Trainwreck."

The result is a genre-blending piece that adds an extra layer of depth to Bad Tips' exploratory commitment.

Neida - Hydro (Galtier Remix)

For its 3rd compilation, Blue Night Jungle dives deeper into the french mental music scene. Enhancing the underground metamorphosis of a new way of conjuring trance within electronic musics, it welcomes a batch of new artists (Beatrice M., RAVL, Vanda Forte, Paul Rêve, Tampo, Orchid, NOGE, Kick21, Solma, Khey Mysterio, Cléo II) but also spare room for known figures of the label (Smogo, Drawbridge, Trois-Quarts Taxi System or Boskøw). Going from deep tribe adventures to dark DnB paths, jungle and trance experiments, it gathers this whole new "mental" scene of french parties for a long journey through the depths of unknown jungles.

Matching his signature melodic futurism with enduring club music structures, Pev brings the Pulse series to a natural conclusion with the Pulse Phase EP. On this third release he underlines the broader approach to tempos and styles he’s taken across this latest period of his output, soon to be coalesced into a new live set. 

If there’s been a nostalgic streak detectable amongst the crisp modernism of the Pulse series, it comes through clearer than ever in the looped-up house jack and starry-eyed techno synth hooks of ‘Pulse IX’. ‘Pulse TEN’ pares back for a lean soundsystem workout driven by a strafing arp and fractured drums while ‘Pulse XI’ revisits 90s bleep techno with a deep, dubby intention. ‘Pulse XII’ completes the picture capturing the skeletal pressure of 2-step at its most slender and deadly.

There’s never a sense of over-familiarity — the exacting angles of the drums and alien hue of the synths maintain Pev’s distinctive sound first and foremost. But this series has also been an opportunity to hear some of his musical DNA more explicitly than before, cast in universal rave motifs propelled by the unrelenting pursuit of new forms for the dance.

Peverelist - Pulse TEN

Conjuration of ethereal beings is the main purpose of JC Laurent's music. Diving in deep DnB atmospheres, sometimes euphoric, sometimes extatic, the french producer's universe is to be apprehended as a whole. For his first contribution to the label catalogue, he seems to have find the quintessence of what BNJ is all about : a magic road to both inner and outer unexplored lands.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Smogo - Sauvage [ES034]

With this second EP ever released and his second offering to the Electric Shapes' catalogue, Smogo dove deeper into the areas of the subconscient. With a blend of hard rhythms and dangerous sound designs, gathering both his love for Science-Fiction and organic textures, this new EP reflects more than anything his attraction towards ultramodern mental music, well reflecting the ongoing european enthusiasm for fast paced techno, buzzing soundscapes, ethereal harshnes, citing A Strange Wedding, Raär, Solma, Trois-Quarts Taxi System or Sole Massif as his source of influence. Calling this wave as "psytech", it conjures on the dancefloor a bestial spirit made for dance, self-abandon, communion with the others.

Tectonic Sound lays down the gauntlet for the future direction of the label. The compilation comprises many producers making their Tectonic debut, including re:ni, Beatrice M., Yushh, Flora Yin Wong, and Sicaria, alongside stalwarts like 2562, Shed, and Distance. It’s an exhilarating 24-track journey through experimental, bass-heavy electronic music, with almost all tracks created by the artists specifically with Tectonic’s sound in mind - at an intersection where dubstep and techno meet.
