The ICE LP was created by Maxim Wolzyn over a period of three years, mostly whilst touring throughout Germany by train as part of the Günther Lause duo. Spread over eight tracks, the LP poetically captures the complex networks of railways and tunnel systems that carry with them the thoughts and feelings of millions of people, aspiring to attain an overall impression of the collective consciousness of a society on the move. 

Inspired sonically by the soundscapes of urban spaces, rail stations and the pulsing motions of modern mass transportation, various field recordings are mixed with reverberating synthesizer patterns and percussive composition, creating a mixture of straight forward techno and dystopian ambiences. 

While being reminiscent of Berlin's dub techno tradition it also transcends the typical club context, moving into the realm of the intimate and personal.

JUNGLE GYM RECORDS presents "Prehistoria," a split cassette by Dravier & V. Kristoff. Following the collaborative "Shelter From Environment," the pair return to reflect on the most primitive memories of mankind. Kristoff takes SIDE 1, inspired by the physical artifacts that would eventually draw separation between humanity and all other animals. SIDE 2 from Dravier, then, expands on the concept with "Visions," a long-form piece exploring ancient psychological and spiritual devices of the Neanderthals, struggling to find their place in the universe as we still do today. Kristoff and Dravier develop these ideas and more with appropriately prehistoric recording techniques, utilizing a single mono synth with arpeggiator through guitar pedals, straight to tape... simple tools with far-reaching results, exclusively from JUNGLE GYM.

POÁN - Abisso

It is the natural path that can never be ignored.

Born in 1986’ life is permeated by music in every facet, connecting with sound in a way that traverses stylistic genre. His relationship with music is based on deep emotional connection, using it as a conduit to explore himself instinctively and intimately. 

For him music is a portal, an outlet to the isolation one sometimes experiences in a world of dissonances. Emotional soundscapes are painted through his performances, where music becomes a channel to the universe. Strokes of nature are juxtaposed with rough, industrial counterpoint, where he reveals brief moments of happiness amidst the melancholy. 

This transmission is a personal outlet, dreaming with music to create new realities of perception and identity.

Peaks line up from nothing; 
and their stones sink in blue sea. 
They sink to become nothing 
And be reborn above the clouds.
