Buy: https://sohaso.bandcamp.com/album/klittenband

Dwaalgast returns. The somewhat enigmatic Dutch producer from Utrecht goes triphop on Klittenband (A funny Dutch word which translates als 'velcro'). The laidback, swirling grooves form the perfect backdrop for Shari Klein's whispering spoken word vocals. It's for you to find out what Klittenband is all about. For starters, there is physical attraction involved. But you should also be able to step across language barriers. ;)

Banoffee Pies Original series continues with a long overdue welcome to the label for Xades (pronounced shades), the Berlin based Artist, Producer, Vocalist, already known under her DJ moniker MSJY. The Femme Bass Mafia co-founder operating for the last 8 years across Europe, with a previous residency at Amsterdam’s De School Club, and further affiliations with the likes of Dekmantel and OOST. As Jenny’s career and musical output continues to flourish, the Xades project sets the foundations as a space for measured sonic reflection, and acts as a portal to connect  to their surroundings under a lens of sensitivity.

Original production “Qlu” gives us a taste of the dynamic, sharp and playful spectrum of sounds that culminate in a uniquely euphoric composition with the perfect touch of dub tinged electronica.

Two remixes take opposing directions, with an intricately chaptered bass weight twist from sound design enthusiast /  Body Verse founder Kate Miller, and a hybrid rhythmic club cut from recently affiliated label signing Syz. BPR x

Thin Line Between Love and Hate

Bandcamp: https://sohaso.bandcamp.com/album/to-sit-quietly-where-everything-is-moving-fast

For his debut album To Sit Quietly Where Everything is Moving Fast, https://soundcloud.com/love-over-entropy used only one source: a Yamaha DX11 synthesizer. It’s a vintage machine from 1987 that was also used by early IDM and techno producers. “Working with an artificial constraint unleashed a different kind of creativity," says the The Hague-based musician, who normally does not shy away from elaborate productions.

Love over Entropy spent a lot of time working out the correct order of the tracks on the album. "I think it's important that the story also flows well on a higher level. It was a nice puzzle to solve."

Although the Covid pandemic is long behind us, much of the material on this album comes from the days when society was still largely in lockdown. "Which explains the title," says Love over Entropy. "But it also refers to my distancing myself from the hustle and bustle of the dancefloor. Up until then, I was primarily making dance music."

You won't find any kick drums or heavy bass lines on To Sit Quietly Where Everything Is Moving Fast. It is intimate, meditative and often very beautiful ambient music. But not the formless kind that seems to dominate chill-out playlists these days. Tracks like Finnkroken, Tidalene and Rotiriot have a story to tell, with a lot of effort put in to get it just right.

“To me, making music is mostly about the process. So I will spend many hours working on details that probably nobody will ever notice. Above all, the pastoral melodies stand out, undulating back and forth like foam on the surf. The harmonies are reminiscent of Isan, Boards of Canada and Murcof, while the album also pays homage to the Artificial Intelligence period on Warp Records.

According to the Dutch producer, a lot of current ambient music falls short of the original idea, as coined by Brian Eno. "Eno once described ambient as music that should be 'as ignorable as it is interesting', but nowadays it seems to have become 'as unignorable as it is uninteresting'," Love over Entropy says cheekily. "Ambient music really is everywhere, with modern production tools often doing the heavy lifting."

With To Sit Quietly Where Everything is Moving Fast, the producer hopes to make a difference, simply by raising the bar. It's a journey that can be taken both horizontally and vertically, and hopefully offers comfort. Or as the producer describes it: "music that offers a refuge."

Love Over Entropy - NLC

Bandcamp: https://sohaso.bandcamp.com/album/herbology

If you are into psychedelic and adventurous electronica, you'll love So Oishi's second EP for the Dutch record label SoHaSo. Herbology is a five-part trip where acoustic and electronic elements merge in slow motion. On his last record, The Lithospere EP, Japanese producer So Oishi showed off his skills in a variety of styles. But this time, Oishi keeps things slow and dreamy for most of the ride. 

The opening track, The Opposite Shore, has a Heart of Darkness-kinda vibe, with strange noises emerging from the river banks somewhere deep in the jungle. On Canopy Rites, we've seem to have reached an African village, judging by the tribal rhythms coming from the shacks ashore. 

Next up is Artemis, the only proper club track on this otherwise intimate EP. With its kick drums and howling bass, it reminds us of early Underworld productions. It’s a surprising center piece on Herbology. With Sinking and Herbology we're back in chill out territories, where acoustic instruments like tablas and flutes float harmonically with electronic soundscapes. 

Japanese producer https://soundcloud.com/sooishi has carved out his little safe space on planet SoHaSo and we rather like it there. We hope you do too.

OD 30 feat. JAW (Original Mix)

An album like this should be wrapped in gold, with shooting star accents and served on a rose bedecked saucer.This is Ying and Yang, Laurel and Hardy, spaghetti and tomato sauce, it is: everything. And never nothing. In the club cellar it is potent dynamite and by the light of day it belongs to a souled passion, in quiet moments at home.
"The Gold Retrospective" is the essence of five musical experiments, extending the work of Monsieur Kadebostan on the labels FENOU and Freude am Tanzen.

Eine Platte wie die diese gehört selbstverständlich in Gold verpackt, mit Sternschnuppen garniert und auf Rosenplattenteller gebettet. Sie ist Ying und Yang, Laurel und Hardy, Spaghetti und Tomatensosse, sie ist: alles. Und niemals nichts. Im Clubkeller reinstes Dynamit, bei Lichte gehört beseelte Musikleidenschaft, in stillen Stunden daheim auch feines Sehnsuchtsleuchten.
"The Gold Retrospective" ist die Essenz aus fünf Jahren musikalischer Tiefenbohrung, die Monsieur Kadebostan nun schon bei den Labels FENOU und Freude am Tanzen unternimmt.
