Taken from PET-008: Lyra Valenza - "Nightshade Edition"
Out June 19th on Petrola 80
@lyravalenza
@petrola-80

Danish duo @lyravalenza (aka Hjalte and Jens Konrad) operates on the outskirts of contemporary electronic dance music. Armed with a playful approach and a patchwork of digital and analogue equipment, Lyra Valenza carved their own space in the Copenhagen scene by genre-blending Jungle, UK Garage, and Footwork into a mix of forward-facing and euphoric dance music for 2020 and beyond. A testament to the duo's unique approach to sound design, they were selected for this year's SHAPE - a platform for innovative music and audiovisual art from Europe.

Lyra Valenza's latest EP, Nightshade Edition, is a package of sweet and dangerous cuts to the taste of dystopian romance. The prime dance floor material hits with metallic percussion and bursts of fluttering synths tuned with just the right amount of trance. From stepping UKG, to lush digital soundscapes, the four breaks heavy tracks are hyper-modern sonic experiments processed through a retrospective haze.

The Nightshade Edition EP is released on Lyra Valenza's own @petrola-80 label. It follows their 2018 debut EP "Scan Deliver" on UK imprint Opal Tapes and comes as a welcome return from the energetic producers.

Making his return to the Infinite Machine catalog is Nostro Hood System boss Galtier with his 3 track EP ‘Dancing On Ruins’; a relentless slug of driving percussion and discordant atmospheres. Taking quite a step from his 2018 ‘Terran’ EP released on IM, Galtier abandons the hopeful, up-lifting, sometimes euphoric mood that has characterized much of his sound for the last few years and flexes his ability to handle anxious, hard-hitting techno-influenced material – a healthy departure from the purposeful, existential theme evident in earlier works.

‘Dancing On Ruins’ is characterized by its dusty, weather-beaten sound palette, as if such music was created and played in a desolate, lifeless world to provide solitude for the stoic beings that reside there. It is fast and aggressive, utilising techno-esque sonics as its base, yet it avoids being scary or oppressive or too stereotypical in nature.
‘
Scuffed Souls’ leads into the chaos with the pounding force of its 909 kick that thumps over the ever-evolving, fundamentally gothic sequence of melody. It is menacing and daunting to say the least, and gets straight to the point. Rhythmically it is reminiscent of classic rave-inclined techno but draws for quick transitions evident in contemporary club music. Crisp, pointed hi hats play gracefully amongst the angry soundscape and are quickly scared off by the growling Moog bassline that rumbles in to occupy the decrescendo.

The rhythm is broken and far more syncopated on ‘Precious Quartz (To Reave), which likewise increases in BPM from 140 to 148. Being the most stripped back, percussively oriented track on the whole release, Galtier flexes his capacity to execute myriad shifts in rhythm and pace as the majority of the track chugs along, the vessel made up of a its short but monstrous kick, sharp hi hat slashes, restrained 909 rides and a mutated bell call – warning others of its approach.

Finally the namesake of the EP, ‘Dancing On Ruins’, takes place, leaving the zenith of the release’s unnerving energy for last. Galtier combines elements of UK Techno rhythm with loose UK Funky instrumentation and meshes the two and speeds things up significantly. Though the rhythm returns to a more pulsing, simply structured state, the hollow lead is pulverising and raw throughout the whole track. This, accompanied by the blistering 150 BPM tempo, makes it a vicious, restless beast.

2. Precious Quartz (To Reave)

Galtier - Dancing On Ruins (IM079)

Straight out of Florence, Italy, OOH are a label that stand high upon their own mountain top. Across their growing catalogue, spanning twenty releases and counting, they bring a highly curated, avant-garde vibe with sound design lying at its core. They have played host to artists such as Peder Mannerfelt, Dale Cornish and Sim Hutchins among others. Continuing such a thread, they now prepare their twenty-first release from french duo, Glass, entitled 'crY' EP. 

Recently debuting with independent French label, Sante Records,Glass present a body of work that is full of meaning on 'crY' EP. Not simply a collection of productions but an expansive investigation into sound in the broadest sense. In their own words, 'crY' EP is 'a response to an explicit impulse to investigate modern commodification beyond its soothing, enjoyable and relaxing facade.' This can certainly be seen in Glass' sound design, juxtaposing elements of weirdo techno, jungle and experimental with nuances from gaming and other electronically related worlds.

On track 'Appointment Scheduling System', Glass have parsed a modernist take on jungle. The immediacy of unrelenting drum patterns pairs with raw samples from everyday life. Tension is built in the syncopation of elements from laser stabs to door knocks, the track is a pummeling fistful of energy.
