Recorded b2b with @mrkuusk at the 2021 Tallinn Music Week afterparty.

Steffan Todorović b2b Ken Kuusk @ Uus Laine (02.10.21)

Ukrainian native/Toronto based digger, @n_bru, serves up the next offering in the Opus series.

The Co-Founder of the Aliens party in Kyiv expertly stitches together a wicked mix of hypnotic dreamweavery, percussive whompers, pulsating prog and acidic squiggles. Wall to wall stonkers.

On a side note, the devastating scenes in Ukraine over the past 10 months have left us feeling distressed, crushed and at times, helpless. Whilst typically we'd like to keep politics out of music, this unjust war cannot help but provoke action.

On behalf of the artist, the following charity has been nominated for donations to help protect Ukrainian civilians during these difficult times. Link below:

We hope you can help.

Ukraine forever.

Opus Tapes 004 : Bru

Siamese Twins Records presents Temple Rat, known offstage as Mei Yuxin, and her highly anticipated debut EP, "The Composition of Air." This album signifies her first solo release with Siamese Twins, following her contribution to the Kāthā V.A. (ST-๐๐ห้า), which Higher Intelligence Agency later reworked on ST-๐๐๘. Each track gracefully transitions, creating a harmonious blend of ethereal haze yet grounded echogenic brushstrokes. Despite the otherworldly ambiance, the EP remains deeply rooted in an ancient mystique, which Mei has skillfully crafted.

Hailing from Chengdu, Mei is a master of the traditional Chinese Erhu, a two-stringed folk instrument made of wood and snakeskin. The soulful resonance of this time-honored instrument intertwines with Mei's productions and live performances.

The opening track, "Dreaming of Electric Sheep," immerses listeners in a dystopian sci-fi atmosphere, masterfully merging rustic ambiance with hissing field recordings and IDM-inspired elements. Hypnotic rhythms envelop and wash over meditative alchemy.

"Rooted in the Soil of Your Heritage" features a captivating collaboration with Portuguese vocalist Meta_, taking on a contemporary darkwave approach. This track spirals into the horizon, offering solace through interlacing oscillations, and perfectly illustrates Mei's ability to facilitate interethnic dialogue with her distinct and enthralling Erhu sound.

The true story unfolds in the title track, "The Composition of Air," as Mei expertly employs organic synths to create absorbing arpeggios and sequences.

The final piece, "东风," feels familiar and otherworldly, as drums pirouette beneath melodies that balance delicately, culminating in an intriguing and welcoming soundscape—the ideal conclusion to a captivating EP.

The joy of being on the dancefloor and the love for music eventually grew to the excitement of mixing his favorite tracks and playing them for people. 2019 saw @todjon's first DJ gig in Bali, and he's been actively performing on various stages ever since. Todjon loves to create an ambiguously eclectic set that pushes boundaries beyond genre, mixing the 4 holy grail of electro, techno, house, and trance. Somewhat storytelling, reflecting the multilayer background of his line of work.

Released on my own label, With A Little Help Of A Friend Records, this concept EP was created entirely from my bicycle using AI. Inspired by cycling around the world, the motion, rhythm, and atmosphere of the journey are captured throughout the tracks. The culture of cycling—from the 90s to today—served as a major muse, merged with electronic sounds influenced by many of my favorite musicians. The result is a fusion of inspirations reflecting both the landscapes traveled and the evolving sonic ideas along the way.
