Originally released in 2002, “Harnessed the Storm” was conceived as the opening chapter of the legendary seven Storms – a series of seven albums created within a single year and released via several labels under different names. “Harnessed the Storm” was the sole one in the series credited under the main Drexciya project.
The album, which is considered to be one of the pair's darkest, was produced in a time of creative outbreak and emo- tional turbulence. The duo's confidence was at a peak, new techniques revolutionized musical production, but the duo also had to face Stinson's severe health issues. This led to a radical shift of pace in producing and releasing music. For the Detroit pair it was time to move on from their ground-breaking past. It was time for some shape shifting and wave jumping to occur, in Drexciya’s terms.
This is reflected two-folds on the ten cuts of “Harnessed the Storm”. With seven different album projects in the pipeline, Stinson and Donald were able to give the atmospheres and structures of each individual work a more distinct focus, resulting in longer pieces and more defined moods. “Harnessed the Storm” integrated classic Drexciyan dance floor moments like “Under Sea Disturbances” and “Digital Tsunami”, brooding experiments like “Dr. Blowfins' Black Storm Stabilizing Spheres” and “Aquatic Cataclysm” which rank with the most abstract, alien and stark in their catalogue, and a few choice cuts of wave-cruising beauty into a cohesive whole – the disparate elements fused by an all-permeating sonic dread.
“Harnessed the Storm” is as much the uncanny silence before the storm - looming in the unknown, as the storm itself, making this album at once an incredibly focused sound production, as well as a journey of highest emotional complexity.
Another masterful lesson in futurist dance music from one of its strongest forces.

V/A Mystic Versions 01 [MVER01]

For his debut release and also that of his label, Eternal Ocean, Ronan delivers a exploratory 4 track EP of modern dance music. Touching on his influences as an classically trained instrumentalist and jazz improviser he uses the forms of club music to create sonic environments that envelop the listener with layers of narrative depth and idiosyncratic character. From the whipcrack bass pressure of ‘Internal Revelation’ and the sensual trance of ‘Surface Dive’ to the aqueous and narcotic take on UK techno found in ‘Cellular Matrix’ and ‘Tracheal Impulse’ he finds himself in a singular space, setting up a strong and unique foundation from where there’s no telling what he’ll come up with next.

Coming into orbit late November PS001.2 continues our dancefloor focussed explorations...

On the A-side Point Guard returns to the label with his razor-sharp electro outing ‘Odyssey’. An emotional expedition that harnesses dancefloor euphoria with a powerfully burning bassline. Joining forces to complete the A side is Melbourne producer Disrute and label head Andy Garvey. Here an ever-evolving synthline propels you forward throughout the track that builds infinitely but pauses just to release Garvey’s mesmerising vocal, ‘NRG’.  

Flip the axis and you will find swirling synths and scattered percussion that creates the murky club weapon that is emerging Sydney producer PMA’s ‘Hek’. Completing the release, Roy Mills brings you to a full rotation with ‘Aquatic Pressure’. His jittery breakbeat cut that slows to a half step mid way and returns with odd-ball synth mayhem.  

Tracklist:
A1 - Point Guard - Odyssey
A2 - Andy Garvey x Disrute - NRG
B1 - PMA - Hek
B2 - Roy Mills - Aquatic Pressure

Portuguese artist Lake Haze (Gonçalo Salgado) makes his return to Shall Not Fade with an album of spacious club music. Salgado is a key player in Portuguese musical exports, delivering masterful blends of techno grooves and retro melodies, and released his debut LP on E-Beamz in 2019. This second LP is titled Sun Rising On Concrete Landscapes.

This record explores further the atmospheric, slightly melancholic timbre to Salgado’s music. The use of reverb across the LP elucidates a sense of looking back to the past; ‘The Rave That Saved My Life’ sounds like echoes from a distant memory. It turns the sounds of the rave into something sombre, expansive and scattered with space age breaks. The title track feels dramatic, starting with melodic loops and scattered percussion but building into an untamed electro banger. The sci fi theme develops in a gorgeous soundscape of minimalist synth stabs in ‘She Took Me To Her Favourite Club’, while ‘Always By Your Side’ lingers in echoing percussion; the purposefully dated snare gives it some hints of an 80s ballad - deeply retro and deeply emotional. Salgado turns to more raw, club-ready sounds like the scattered breaks and electronic sound effects of ‘Neurotoxins Dancing On My Tongue’ or the punching kick and creeping acid trills of ‘Liquid Serotonin’. His skills as a producer are clear as he constructs the cavernous ‘Digital Petals’ with reminiscences of classic trance sounds. The expansive LP closes with ‘Emotional Encore’. It’s an industrial retro chugger with the dust of lofi sounds across it, eclectic and headsy. 

Sun Rising On Concrete Landscapes LP drops April 9th via Shall Not Fade.
