Standard Deviation is thrilled to present @hanna_svirska's latest work, YANGOLA. The central themes of the EP are celebration of spring and faith in the revival. This motive is explored through the mysticism of Ukrainian myths, but also finds a more literal meaning in the circumstances and setting in which the EP was produced. The Single ’Vesnianka’ is out today!

Exploring the traditional themes of ancient Ukrainian folklore, YANGOLA creates a story based on personal and shared mythologies: in ‘Vesnianka’, the protagonist is trying to find an angel, but there are a lot of skeptics around her who don't believe in the angel's existence or do but have given up searching. The angel appears only in spring when the earth has the most power, preparing for its renewal. If someone sees the angel's light, they will begin the regeneration process of the Universe. The Black Beast (‘Chornyi Zvir’) will turn to ashes, and the young Cossack will not die under a tall willow tree (‘Vysoka Verba’). The characters trying to find the angel get lost in their dreams and wander through the woods. They travel in time, plunging into the achievements of their ancestors. The name YANGOLA (derived from the Ukrainian word for angel) stands for an imagined musical genre, like a lullaby, legend, or ballad. YANGOLA is a genre of finding renewal, light, and infinite hope.

The release is supported with a remix of ’Chornyi Zvir’ by the Parisian audiovisual experimentalist and Subtext Records affiliate, Aho Ssan.

AGF aka Antye Greie-Ripatti a sound artist and electronic music producer. Her work inhabits an augmented space where pounding {Berlin} experimental after-techno, spoken word, abstract video art, feminism and radical ecology create a self-sustaining environment. Originally from East Germany, she started to develop a DIY approach early on, while also using her voice to fight against oppression by supporting marginalized communities and calling out injustice, most recently through female:pressure, a support community and promotional platform for female-identified electronic musicians. Currently based in Northern Finland, Antye founded the local arts organization Hai Art in Hailuoto. Since its inception in 2011, Hai Art has been involved in numerous sound-related projects, focusing on working with children. Antye acts as its director, curator and workshop instructor. Active since the early 90’s, she has collaborated with strong names in electronic music such as French pioneer Eliane Radigue, German legends Gudrun Gut and Ellen Allien, British avantgardist Kaffe Matthews, Finnish IDM treasure Vladislav Delay and classical composer Craig Armstrong.

SONIC AGENCY - AGF - "can you hear them"

« SOLIDE, l'entraide à l'épreuve des violences systémiques à Athènes » est un documentaire radiophonique qui prend le pouls des luttes radicales du centre à la périphérie d’Athènes. En Grèce, les violentes politiques d’austérité imposées à partir de 2008 ont fait sombrer dans la précarité et la misère tout un nouveau pan de la population. Les pratiques solidaires se sont construites avec l'identification d'ennemis communs (l’État, les banques, le système capitaliste, etc). De la parole des personnes exilé·es, à celle de militant·es, sur la place d’Exarcheia ou au cœur du potager autogéré Votanikos Kipos qui occupe une ancienne serre financée par l’Union Européenne, Nicolas Richen (sociologue et journaliste indépendant) et Mona Hackel (productrice radio) arpentent la capitale pour garder des traces de ces formes de solidarité. Sans pour autant faire l’inventaire de « miraculeuses solutions » pour lutter contre l’isolement, SOLIDE se demande comment renforcer nos relations et vivifier nos luttes communes pour faire face aux violences systémiques qui se manifestent en Grèce et au-delà.

Crédits : un documentaire radiophonique de Mona Hackel et Nicolas Richen. Prise son : Mona Hackel et Nicolas Richen Montage : Mona Hackel. Mixage : Louna Bricoteau. Visuel : Mona Hackel.

SSRI - Mysterious duo (Sandra Mikołajczyk and Igor Gadomski) from the center of Poland, is a band whose activity isn't easy to define but often delving into the darker fringes of dub. Their music is often described as a genre of underwater reggae, likely influenced by the distinctive industrial sound of Łódź and a heavy use of reverb effects. They draw inspiration from the city and its distorted concept of tropical nature.

As residents of Radio Kapitał, hosting a show inspired by mental states and the circumstances of their creation, they bring an additional context and depth to SSRI's music.
Their debut album, set to be released on April 29, 2024, by Pointless Geometry.

So, then we have Vina Konda's solid debut EP. Vina Konda's productions use club weapons to translate his vision of efficiency. Zinkala is some dubby reflections with breaks timestretched, elemental pads, bass/sub tensions, phasing voices and a curious passion of marimba's solo... 
After his first apparition under WVRXRVW on Nous Disques Records's Various, he takes off and burst into his mind to connect his propositions. 
Highly recommended with pills to fall/fail in love on the dancefloor !
