Ólafur Arnalds and Janus Rasmussen release exclusive 12” for Record Store Day 2015 featuring remixes by Dauwd and Lubomyr Melnyk

After releasing their debut album of unique Nordic electronic sounds in late 2014, Kiasmos – made up of Ólafur Arnalds and Janus Rasmussen – return with a special 3-track EP featuring album highlight ‘Looped’ and remixes of album tracks ‘Held’ and ‘Burnt’.

Made in Ólafur’s newly build studio in Reykjavík, Iceland, the title track ‘Looped’ was recorded using acoustic instruments next to a variety of synthesizers, drum machines and tape delays. It also features Ólafur performing on the grand piano, producing an ambient, textured sound, which makes it a perfect home listen and equally danceable tune.

UK electronic producer Dauwd (Kompakt/Ghostly), who Kiasmos specially selected to perform at their sold out London album release show as well as remix their track, has crafted a chilled club version of ‘Held’. Whilst Ukrainian pianist and fellow Erased Tapes artist Lubomyr Melnyk has created a unique re-interpretation of ‘Burnt’ in his signature “Continuous Music” mode, performed on two pianos.

 “It was an honour to be asked to remix an artist for Erased Tapes. Both the label and the artists I admire. And it was such a pleasure to work with the source material from Kiasmos. The parts had so much texture and warmth that working with them in my own space was quite inspiring.  I tried to respond impulsively to the parts and allow anything to happen. I think I achieved something with a balance of the original vibe and looking in another direction.” – Dauwd

 “I really enjoy the music of Ólafur and Janus. And this was a wonderful opportunity to take their theme for ‘Burnt’ and turn it into some Continuous Piano. A tiny new cadence crept into the piece. And that this is on vinyl with 24-bit sound is all the better!”
 – Lubomyr Melnyk

 “We were very excited to get two of our favourite active musicians to do these remixes for us. Lubomyr providing a very special and unique rework with his double piano recording and Dauwd with a great dance centered remix. Both musicians brought out very interesting things in the originals that we had even missed ourselves.” – Kiasmos

The ‘Looped EP’ will be released by Erased Tapes on April 18th as a Ltd. Edition 12” – exclusively for Record Store Day 2015 

ABOUT THE ARTWORK:

Long-term Erased Tapes graphics collaborator Torsten Posselt at Feld Studios in Berlin created the cover artwork for the Looped EP, connecting it with both the album and the Thrown EP.

TRACK LISTING:

A1. Looped	A2. Held (Dauwd Remix)    B1. Burnt (Lubomyr Melnyk Rework)

PRESS:

"The resulting remix sees the UK talent [Dauwd] refitting Kiasmos' production into a more club-minded framework while still retaining the restrained atmosphere and rich tones of the original." – XLR8R

ABOUT THE ARTISTS:		

Kiasmos is made up of Icelandic BAFTA-winning composer Ólafur Arnalds, known for his unique blend of minimal piano and string compositions with electronic sounds, and Janus Rasmussen from the Faroe Islands, known as the mastermind of the electro-pop outfit Bloodgroup. Based in Reykjavík, Arnalds used to work as a sound engineer, often for Rasmussen's other projects, where the two musicians discovered their common love for minimal, experimental music.

RHR - GÍRIA
Label: PAN
Cat.No.: PAN 164
Release Date: 06 March 2026
Purchase: pan.lnk.to/GIRIA

‘GÍRIA’, the name of RHR’s new EP, is more than a word. It’s how language bends under the weight of bodies, histories and sounds that were never meant to fit inside it. Born from the friction between tongues - African, Indigenous, Queer, street, ancestral -, GÍRIA [slang, in brazilian portuguese] is how people translate themselves into existence.

GÍRIA is also a way of subverting language, of hiding meanings, of creating shared codes among those who know how to read them. It’s a form of encryption born from community and experience, a system of signs that only becomes legible through collective knowledge. To speak in GÍRIA is to reclaim power over meaning, to make the language dance to another rhythm. It loops, mutates, comes back altered yet somehow the same. Like a capoeira circle or a spiritual gira, it’s a collective motion.

“I chose this name because GÍRIA is fundamentally about creating meaning. It’s about reshaping language and giving new significance to words, in the same way we seek meaning in life, in symbols and in the experiences we return to again and again” says RHR, Brazilian DJ and producer from Diadema, São Paulo.

Following the release of ‘En-Giro’, RHR’s previous EP, ‘GÍRIA’ feels like a natural continuation. “Everything spins around something, people, cycles, situations, rhythms. And GÍRIA is exactly that: an EP about movement and about the power we have to name things and give them meaning. It’s the word that creates worlds; the spin that reshapes the path.”

Anthony Linell & Evigt Mörker — Ett anständigt liv
12" and digital
Release date: 2026-03-27

Marking the first alignment between the two artists, the record unfolds as a study in continuity, pressure, and sustained focus. Across four pieces, a steady and tensile sonic language develops, immersive in its repetition and controlled in its ascent. Subtle psychedelic inflections — recalling early trance states — surface within a darker, more restrained framework. The result is neither nostalgic nor decorative, but reduced, deliberate, and directed forward.

Tracklist: 

A1 Med huvudet under armen
A2 Inga fler världar likt denna
B1 Kedja de ofödda
B2  I mitt sinne ska orkanerna dö

Written and produced by AL & KL in Sofia, Sweden during the cold winter of 2024. 

Mixed and mastered by head wizard Giuseppe Tillieci at EnissLab, Rome.

Men With Secrets – “The Tower”
from the forthcoming album Sand Clock

Cititrax presents “The Tower,” a striking new recording from Men With Secrets — the Italian trio of Donato Dozzy, Lino Monaco, and Nicola Buono (Retina.it). Emerging from their earlier experimental project Le Officine Di Efesto, the group channels the stark spirit of classic minimal wave, post-punk, and synth-driven pop through a contemporary lens.

Driven by icy synthesizers, pulsing drum machines, and intimate baritone vocals, “The Tower” captures the shadowed tension, hypnotic rhythms and melancholic melodies that define Sand Clock.

Written and produced by Donato Dozzy, Lino Monaco, and Nicola Buono.
Recorded in Rome and Pompeii.

The Tower

René Löwe, aka Vainqueur, has released highly influential records on Maurizio, Chain Reaction, and his co-founded label Scion Versions. Together with his label partner Substance, aka DJ Pete, he also performs live as Scion. A true pioneer of dub techno. Enjoy!
