SBKT068: Swimful - Diecast
Release date: 26th March 2025

SBKT068: Swimful - Diecast

SBKT069: Nahash - Fleurs Mortes
Vinyl + digital: 15th May 2025

Nahash returns to SVBKVLT with Fleurs Mortes, a striking sophomore album that stands apart from fleeting trends and extravagant sound design. This record is an unfiltered reflection of Nahash's musical education —one shaped by the raw energy of ‘90s rave,  hip-hop and dancehall afterparties, and the deep crates of his parents' extensive jazz and Afrobeat collection, taking influence from the anarchic spirit of Spiral Tribe to Dillinja’s legendary remixes of Björk, infused with heavy doses of Wu-Tang, DJ Premier, John Coltrane, and Archie Shepp. 

Building on the themes of 2020's 'Flowers of the Revolution', this album envisions a future liberated from dystopia and oppression—a hopeful dream expressed through endless dub delays, ethereal reverbs, rave-infused drum hits, and, unexpectedly, live trumpet. 

This record was years in the making, finally taking shape during a whirlwind European tour with SVBKVLT labelmates—late-night conversations, cold drinks, and ice cream fueling its final form. 

The flowers may have withered, but a new season is on the horizon—one filled with love, renewal, and the scent of grilled lamb chops.

SBKT070: estoc - Are We Doomed to Bow to the Stupid and Cruel?
Release date: 26th June 2025
Artwork & Design: Amber Jean
Mixing & Digital Master: Nori Kin
Vinyl Master: Raphael Valensi

----

estoc presents the newest manifestation of her artistic practice: an attempt to make sense of a world seemingly hellbent on violence as its chief export. Art written as a direct response to the conditions felt both at home and watched across oceans through a phone. This album exists as an acknowledgement that our fates are inextricably intertwined, yet, our (temporary) comfort is extracted from the third world. Across 10 tracks the question is: Are We Doomed to Bow to the Stupid and Cruel? Answers are posed and then brushed away, like dust from a shelf. By the end, nothing is settled and we are left with more questions than answers.

Collaborators and co-conspirators weave in and out of the compositions, their presence felt as both adornment, and as integral infrastructure. DJ Haram opens the album with ‘Heretic’. Her voice swims through crackling noise, throbbing basslines — a guided meditation as much as a late night conversation. ‘The Weight’ follows directly after. AZADI.mp3’s smoky chants hover in the air above a smouldering fire of trip hop drums and synths, devolving to a miasma of distortion and swirling screams. The next song, ‘Where Do We Go Now’, builds and swells with rumbling synths, arriving fully as breaks crash forward and Military Scientist’s voice cries out over a chaotic sea. The first solo composition of the album comes in the form of ‘The Poison of the Centre’. A solemn yet off-balance meditation of drums, cut over an uneven and shifting beat. This rhythmic fervor is multiplied tenfold on ‘No Glory’, a harsh bath of bass and drums, constantly fighting for space to breathe through the manufactured scarcity of the mix.

‘Scorched Earth’ lends us our first breath of fresh air. Mia Carucci sings a lullaby over growling instrumentation, Exploited Body’s co-production threatening to boil over at any moment. A momentary break in the clouds, a beam of sunlight shines through before being quickly swallowed back up by the storm; gone as quickly as it came. It is here that we plunge even deeper, as the heartbeat of ‘Heaven Defined for Another’ rattles through. Machinery and exasperated breathing become inexorable, both driven to their breaking point by a rolling wave of thunder. This mechanical terror roils forth on ‘Cradling’. Miedo Total sets clattering steam and cogs over crying strings that threaten to throw themselves to pieces. The penultimate entry sees Violence lend voice and production to ‘Bones Broken, Many Things Left Unsaid’ — a deep terror lurches, shuddering and crashing like ocean waves. A gentle chorus of strings ushers in the final piece, ‘Scratch a Liberal’ — a rare, but fleeting moment of tenderness on the album. Heavy towers of bass throw the composition into shadow, tension builds and grows before collapsing in on itself, revealing the fear and violence at the core of this project. At the end of it all, we are left alone to contemplate what is to be done.

SBKT073: ABADIR - Kitbashing
Release date: 15th October 2025

--
Conceived as part of an A/V show with visual artist Nicolò Cervello, ‘Kitbashing’ marks ABADIR’s third album for SVBKVLT.

A growing number of people spend an extensive amount of time watching, scrolling, liking, commenting on and sharing content, whilst at the same time feeding a constant stream of personal data to social media platforms. Social media can be fun and informative, or draining and dark. Either way, their algorithms are purposefully designed to lock users in a continuous state of scrolling. The more time spent online, the more desires, interests and emotions are fed into the algorithm for consumerist ends and reality is reduced to a timeline of curated aesthetics.

Using audio snippets from reels, suggested posts, and sponsored ads, sound objects are cut, micro-edited and meshed together into a collage. Tension is built gradually before falling into a release. Rhythms keep expanding and contracting, simulating the pace of random scrolling on mobile devices. ‘Kitbashing’ is an attempt to break the algorithm: subverting the dynamics by feeding on the algorithm instead of only feeding it.

SBKT074: DJ Narciso - DENTRO DE MIM
Release date: 4th December 2025

For our final release of 2025, we are excited to present 'DENTRO DE MIM', an extended EP by Lisbon's DJ Narciso (RS Produções' / Principe). 7 incendiary club tracks/tools, plus remixes from Swimful and Digita Ngeche boss Kop-Z. Artwork by Jingxin Wang, mastered by Raphael Valensi.

`DENTRO DE MIM´ (´INSIDE OF ME´) is a reflection of everything I've lived through — the phases I've left behind and the ones that still live within me. Each track is a fragment of time, a feeling I once held, a memory that refuses to fade. I went through a situation where I was lost in my thoughts, and I recounted this feeling in each track.' - DJ Narciso

Taken from SBKT065: ABADIR & Nahash - Marchadair مرشدير
Release date: 25th September 2024

Over the past few years, Nahash and ABADIR have been sharing food recipes, the same sense of humour, and their love for 90's rave, Beth Gibbons, Sun Ra, and grilled lamb. They met last summer for the first time and enjoyed a B2B together during a label showcase in Fano, Italy. Their memories of and appreciation for 90’s and early 00’s Arabic pop music inspired their first collaboration on SVBKVLT. Marchadair is the distillation of the meaty club sound by both producers; ABADIR’s micro-edited audio sampling and surgical chopped percussions mixed with Nahash’s lavish dub techniques and hefty bass, all serving as the main ingredients for these 4 heavyweight tracks. To close the menu, the EP features remixes by Ehua and Toumba.

The track titles play on a symbolic link between both artists and their native languages, using French words that have morphed into Egyptian slang. This Franco-Egyptian mixture echoes the hybrid sound of the EP.

For his sixth 96 Back LP, Evan Majumdar-Swift found himself writing “a long form eulogy” to his years living in Manchester while preparing for an imminent move to London. Initially intended as a series of technical exercises, which saw the artist radically stripping back his established production setup, over the last two years tender, exit gradually took on the form of an emotional landscape, mapped in transit between two cities. “The overarching concept of the record is cycles, recognising them, loving them, and tearing yourself away from them,” he says. Heard together, the project takes on the pace and cadence of a passionate conversation with a loved one.

Taken from SBKT066: Prettybwoy - Tokyo Ice Age
Release date: 5th February 2025

Our first release for 2025 is ‘Tokyo Ice Age’, a new EP from Prettybwoy. 5 warped club tracks, packaged with remixes from aya and Proc Fiskal, artwork by Downstate and mastered by Raphael Valensi.

‘An ice age is a cycle of roughly 100,000 years that Earth has been undergoing for at least the past million years. I’ve been reflecting on these cycles and the way life resets or disappears over time. When my grandmother passed away, I found old photographs and handwritten documents—faded pieces of history that offered me a brief glimpse into my family’s past. Ways of living, even since my own birth, are changing rapidly, and many things are being lost or disappearing forever.

The term "Ice Age" also refers to Japan’s Employment Ice Age, a period between the mid-90s and early 2000s, following the collapse of the country's 'Bubble Economy.' During this time, many young graduates and displaced workers struggled to find stable employment. The generation impacted by this era, known as the "Lost Decades," is often referred to as the ‘Lost Generation’ or ‘Ice Age Generation.’ I belong to this generation.’
