LE SYNDICAT ELECTRONIQUE // A.C.I.D. (excerpt)

This album has been composed, played and recorded during the year 2019. Released as a vinyl LP in limited edition of 100 in 2020 on Hiératique Records.
This work has known the setbacks of the censorship ! Its physical release was delayed because the French manufacturer refused to press it.
A small committee (a first in the world of the vinyl manufacturers! But well, in this decadent world of politically correct shit, nothing makes sense anymore) judged this album not correct and smooth enough and even insulted the creator - that is to say: myself - by calling him "a fascist" .
A great evil for a great good: goodbye to the jerks, goodbye to the censors and their progressive self-righteousness !
The vinyl was finally pressed by another French manufacturer who did his job very well ! This little story makes this sound piece unique in the industrial landscape and valuable in the informed underground scene.

The O.D.A.S.T. project should continue in 2022, a second chapter is planned on Heathen Electronics.

SUPPORT THE REAL DISSIDENCE !

MULE DRIVER - MULADONA - ALBUM STREAMING [SONS OF TRADERS BACK AT MUTANT] [11.10.2022]

On ACEN043 we welcome Istanbul-born, Strasbourg-based artist Vod Kasat. On their debut solo release, they showcase their broken, leftfield sound with an expansive 6 track EP.

Title track Mavi Maskara opens the record with glitched breaks and pummeling sub bass before propelling into the groove. Cavernous, fluctuating pads enter the mix, adding an atmospheric edge to this rolling percussive work-out.

Next up, Soap enters with staggering percussion and dubbed-out chords before launching into a high-octante electro-inspired rhythm. Cutting arpeggios drive us forward as disorientating sound design drifts through the mix.

Passenger Princess lowers the tempo significantly, alternating between super-time-stretched breaks and slo-mo gabber kicks. The disorientating groove progresses as a whirring siren hovers above.

Dur U kicks off the second half of the record in a tom-driven house groove. Overdriven, haunting vocals glide through the mix as Vod Kasat hits us with arresting, industrial percussion.

15 Feb opens with mangled breaks before entering into a chaotic, high tempo rhythm. A heavily distorted synth provides the hook as hard-hitting kicks command the dancefloor.

Closing track Raindrops On My Tongue opens in contrastingly serene fashion with waterdrops and ethereal pads. Heavy kicks and hectic percussion dance between glitchy melodies before experimental sound design brings the EP to a close. 

Released 21st February

In Japanese Buddhism, it's believed that when someone dies they are ushered down one of six paths depending on the karma accumulated during their previous lives. A being might end up in the world of humans, animals, demigods, or celestials, but it's also possible to end up reborn as a pitiable hungry ghost, doomed to an existence of insatiable desire, or even worse - be sent to hell, or jigoku. Ruled over by the Japanese lord of death Emma-ō, this hell isn't quite like the Christian hell, it's closer to purgatory, and cleansing the karma can take hundreds of millions of years of excruciating torture in extreme cold or immense fire. Japanese bass alchemist Gorgonn takes these themes as the basis of his debut album "Six Paths", assembling a spiritually weighty set of futurist dubs that consider the possibility that our mortal domain might be closer to hell than we realize.

Gorgonn describes himself as a Japalien exile. He left the country of his birth almost two decades ago, and since then has been working tirelessly to formulate Jamaican dub, noise, techno, and no-wave into a sound he calls "sci-fi steppas". If you've not come across his name before, there's a good chance you've heard his reverberations. An established sound tech who's worked with The Bug, Hype Williams, Seefeel and others, he's part of G36 with Kevin Martin, Dokkebi Q with Kiki Hitomi, and a former member of Devilman with DJ Scotch Egg and Bo Ningen's Taigen Kawabe. Just last year he released the acclaimed "Disentegration Dubs" full-length alongside JK Flesh, the veteran producer who's best known for masterminding Godflesh. All this experience blesses Gorgonn's productions with remarkable sonic force, and "Six Paths" is his most crushing display yet, smelting cannonball bass and osmium beats into sharp-edged soundsystem weapons.

Look no further than opener 'Abyss' for evidence of this: psychedelic synths draw the mind away from the mortal realm, while tangled, distorted beats push us back down to earth, our faces crushed into the grit and gravel. Using tweaked sub bass and unsettling drones, Gorgonn lays out a cinematic backdrop for the album, drawing us into a world that's terrifying, viscous, and nauseatingly familiar. There's a militaristic roll to 'Without Beginning and End', a track that juxtaposes spacey halfstep thrusts with death metal distortion, footwork polyrhythms, and unearthly pads that addresses the crushing endlessness of jigoku. On 'Invisible' meanwhile, Gorgonn torches the skeletal remains of D&B, abstracting familiar rhythmic patterns into fuzzy, ritualistic cycles that sound both ancient and humming with prospective technology. But on the closing track 'Life as a Beast', it sounds as if Gorgonn has come to a conclusion, and in a flurry of acid squelches and doomy foghorn bass blasts, he seems to have accepted that being reincarnated as an animal might be the best anyone can hope for. Who knows, you might end up as a cat.

Devil Dancers is a 20 track storytelling compilation of experimental minimal wave and punk electronics.

The title is a tribute to one of our favourite tracks by Oppenheimer Analysis (OA - Andy Oppenheimer and Martin Lloyd) that was originally self-released in 1982 on a cassette entitled "New Mexico" recorded at the height of the Cold War and home-taping boom.

A deep exploration through experimental and industrial fields featuring a lot of new and well known faces: Devil Dancers goes further in the label references, while Alan Harman, Panoptique, Helen Island (Violent Quand on Aime) and Le Matin show that the future is also bright for minimal synth.

Experimental music by Bound by Endogamy, Religius Order, Legion 808 and LostSoundBytes to set what is cool in industrial music.-
