Techno's Outer Limits - November 2015

Yela’s upbringing in England exposed him to a rich and vibrant music scene, igniting his passion for electronic music. His tireless digging through vinyl collections in search of abstract and unique tracks has allowed him to curate intriguing sets, in which he is known to explore the interconnectivity between a variety of different genres, tying his selections with elements of a tribalism, intricate percussion and a touch of cinematic flair. Six years ago, Yela returned to his hometown, Antwerp in Belgium where he recently co-founded the musical passion project Oridoo together with Hofmann. Over its first editions Oridoo has featured some promising upcoming local & international DJ’s behind the turntables and aims to deliver authentic electronic musical experiences from the heart.

O MATO Tapes - 022 - Oliver.r

Ken Karter is a new addition to the Stroboscopic Artefacts label, and one who is wasting no time in proving that he belongs on that label's talented roster. With a personal ethos based on the reconciliation of esoteric and scientific aims, it is clear that his music hopes to avoid the blind alley of "either / or" binary thinking and instead strives for a fascinating journey into "both / and" experimental fusion. The label's Monad series, already populated with producers who set their sights on similar artistic goals, provides a very fertile soil indeed for Karter's integrationist worldview and intense sounds.
Ken Karter's breakout release for Stroboscopic Artefacts is Monad XXI, and this in itself is a kind of happy coincidence: this is very much the sound of the 21st century, full of anticipatory tension and darkness, but also a great deal of rushing excitement related to new discoveries. Altogether, these pieces have an effect not unlike navigating through Tokyo on a rainy night: a profound feeling of natural and chaotic processes finding a way to reassert themselves within even the most well-choregraphed technological drama. Each track achieves this special sensation in its own way, with the leadoff MX-01.11 preferring ritually slow kick patterns and an ephemeral scaffolding of dust particles and other 'micro' sonic events. MX-02.11 follows this initiation with the type of headspace-dominating percussive pulses favored by the "clicks and cuts" school, which are here marinated in a mesmerizing tropical heat rather than situated in the austere coldness so often associated with that sound. The third cut on the EP, MX-03.11 quivers with vitality and restlessness, anchoring itself in the listener's consciousness with the help of something like a massive, sliced-and-diced didgeridoo drone, and with a steady rain of percussive artillery fire. It's an exceptional blend of militancy and ecstasy that segues into the likeminded finale, MX-04.11, an infusion of long tones and synthetic splashes once again girded with serious low-end beats.
With just these four tracks at his disposal, Karter shows the potential for electronic music to move beyond what is expected of it, infiltrating new listening environments and inviting new attitudes. As a culmination of the most impactive EDM features from the foregoing decades, and as a harbinger of what still lies ahead, this is a Monad to play loud - and, as ever, not to be missed.

The unhurried rhythm of evolution.

Slow Life came into being in 2011 when an easygoing set of Spaniards & Italians crossed paths and coalesced in Berlin. The current collective consists of Laurine, Cecilio, S. Moreira, and Santi Uribe a.k.a. Indi Zone. The music they play, like the music they produce, is bound together by threads of luminosity and timelessness. 

Between innumerable hours in the studio, a knack for sourcing new talent, and thoughtful art direction, the label grew steadily and organically, and a signature Slow Life identity began to emerge. This led naturally to parties at their homebase in Hoppetosse and the globe-trotting showcases for which the group has become widely known. Ardent digging and long, mesmerizing DJ-sets are central to their craft; they fabricate a musical space for the audience to get lost in, the adventure going as far and deep as the collective imagination will allow. To put it simply: they know how to throw a party and make you feel right at home. 

Each release on the label invokes a timestamp of their intersections and environment, resulting in collaborations with Primary Perception, Basement Space, and Paolo Mosca, to name a few. Strains of jazz, breaks, and ambient music inflect Slow Life’s singular sound with a charismatic balance of discerning taste and approachability.

Slow Life is about taking time and the unhurried rhythm of evolution. Music as a celebration of music. No rush, no pretense, no limitations — only deep work, positive expression, and playful experimentation.
