Here's what happens once you’ve opened a portal to the void: it keeps asking for more! Following their last “Masterbep” release from December 2023 which seemed to lay new psy foundations for the label, SousTraitance is back on July 1th to pledge total allegiance to the no-start-no-end force with Mitry Claye their fourth V/A.

Just in time for the midsummer festival season, the Lyon-based crew delivers another offering of mind-bending, meticulously sound-designed tracks from Alpha Solo, Autogenesis, Cusoon DJ, ICI MTN and RXEX. The spiraling hole goes round and round, sucking in heads and bodies without distinction. The DnB keeps switching between states in the ear to provide a fluid audio experience, only to be redefined by ritualistic Techno thuds and throbs.

STGZ001 Discobasis - Said the Light

For the first release on Stock Grazing, Ngunnawal/Canberra-based sound designer, Discobasis, crafts an impressive collection of deep-listening tracks for his debut along with a feature from multidisciplinary artist, umki.

Drawing influence from muggy ambient and dub tones, Said the Light seeks further hypnosis, descending into abyssal depths. Across each sombre soundscape, Discobasis carefully weaves organic textures with sharp glitches. Despite their apparent discord, these elements intertwine and dance with an eerie harmony, luring listeners into the uncharted. The fractured rhythms force a desultory march, each kick demanding attention as it grates against the senses. It’s a visceral experience, where tension rises and lingers, offering subtle rewards to those willing to lean in.

Premiere: Pianeti Sintetici & Simon Oak - Pluviale

Fun With Gus Remixes— a 4-track remix compilation based on the debut release “FUNGUS VA 001,” partially reworked, morphed, and rediscovered.

To welcome the spring showers, we owe a fragment of our own soil in return. Last year’s collaborative imprint (FGSVA001) evolves into a solitary digital compound, reinterpreted with care by our guests. Cusoon DJ delivers a tail-twisting urgency shining through “Porto da Calheta”; hometown ankle-breaker Krabs unshackles “Ra”, the relentless Count tackles “RYZEC”, and Teodor Nosál aka Ter0rista debunks “the tide brought in a dead jellyfish”.

Original tracks by Anami, Tomáš Niesner, Sorbitol Drops, Adamovia
Remixes by Krabs, cusoon DJ, count, Ter0rista
Mastered by Vladimír Dirda
