Exit Planet Earth: Silicon

Rescape

[Vinyl is out on December 6, digital release to follow later]

Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. No one in particular is renowned for that cliched statement, but when something is so universal, who cares who said it? And is there anything more nostalgia inciting than a blurry film, bursting with colours but aged just perfectly so that you know, it's from a past which will never return. Het Jaarronde, a 1977 short film by Dutch amateur filmmaker Jan van Keulen is a picture perfect study of Dutch rural life. Filmed at an observer's distance it, as the title states, follows the Netherland's throughout the year. It's not bombastic and grand like 1967's John Fernhout film, Sky Over Holland. Instead it's modest, even shy, as if afraid to document too much because to document means to acknowledge change and loss. 

For the second time, Nous'klaer and The Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision's RE:VIVE initiative have teamed up for a split 12" featuring two new film scores of Nous'klaer staple, Mattheis and newcomer Ranie Ribeiro. Each artist was given half the film to compose for, resulting in two sonically disparate pieces that are emotionally twinned. Mattheis offers a lush, heart melting wave of pianos and synths and field recordings to appease his own inner-nostalgia, as the images struck an immediate chord with his childhood and youth in Goeree Overflakkee, South-Holland. 

Ranie Ribeiro, known under his solo moniker for his slamming chopped beats and earlier club oriented releases as D-Ribeiro unveils his talents as a harpist for the first time. His work, is an encapsulation of a calm autumn day. A work in the present rather than a reflection on the past. But as the day fades into night, one can't wish for it to stay, just a little bit longer, because who knows what tomorrow is going to bring?

Parallel Space EP

First Listen: Forest Drive West - 'Parallel Space' (Echocord)

These were difficult and testing times, they required for patience and virtue. As the world turned, there was a very conscious state amidst the human race, a sense that we were all about to enter wild unknown territory. What lay around the corner nobody knew. When would life as we know it return? These were the the questions asked perilously by the onlookers who danced and sang blissfully unaware of the chaos which lurked beyond the line of sight. Would we even survive? This was the point of reckoning, as we push forwards into the grey. 

De Lichting has established itself as a force to be reckoned with, a prominent label which has released a prolific array of deep, heady music which encourages as much thought and intrigue as it does shoe shuffling. Just the way we like it. The new EP from queniv is no different, technical percussive workouts with brooding energy.

On Board Music follows on from its debut compilation with The Meaning Of Time Pt II. This edition comprises seventeen tracks spanning a global range of scenes and musical styles, a sonic document of this unique time. In true On Board style, the music finds a thread amongst the deepest realms of techno and ambient. We are grateful to the inspiring artists involved, some regulars to the label and some new names. 50% of the proceeds will be donated to Sea Watch, in aid of the important work they do conducting migrant rescue operations in the Mediterranean Sea.

Floating around the ether of the world is an old proverb that states, “Good things always come in pairs”. For today’s premiere, we here at Delayed are inclined to agree with that sentiment as another Aussie based artist is taking a stand alongside Alex Albrecht, and Sean La'Brooy on their Analogue Attic imprint to be the metaphorical yin to their yang.

Melbourne based Citizen Maze and his mixes have been on repeat around the Delayed HQ for some time. They are phenomenal stories that dive deep into and through the proverbial musical waters. Taking listeners through a variety of textures, sounds and feelings while providing an overall emphasis on detail. Unsurprising to none, these characteristics are carried over into his live sets and production, the latter of which is why we are here today. ‘Race to the Falls’, off the forthcoming ‘Northern Angelique’ EP, is full to the brim with musical elements, each with their little quirks that lend such a personality to this track and in turn, the EP. So many little things to notice each time you listen, picking out a new voice every time.

'Northern Angelique' will be out in the coming weeks on Analogue Attic and we highly suggest checking the rest of this fantastic EP out if you enjoyed this premiere.
