Atomic Mind - (Hazriddle Original Mix) Demo

​​Early June 2019 Frankfurt based Label MMODEMM unleashes DRUMS, their second vinyl release after MDM01 (feat. Privacy, Chinaski, Dj Slyngshot, Nick Klein, Umberto) and several different cassette formats such as Machine Woman’s residency tape (conclusion of a series of 3 weeks studioresidencies at Mousonturm Frankfurt) or their "cassingle box“ edition of five 5 minute tapes MDM A - MDM J.
​​
​​DRUMS is the first of a series of compilations following the concept of signature sounds – an hommage to soundlibraries, a deconstruction of your favorite preset soundgroups. It is to be complemented by the later releases BELLS , VOICES and SLAPBASS.
​​
​​DRUMS is featuring a proggy composition by Macadam Mambo´s EVA GEIST, a jacking hi hat inferno with agitating spanish lyrics by CIENFUEGOS, known thru his releases on L.I.E.S., a dancefloor drumsolo straight out of >Ireland by LUMIGRAPH, who was already featured on MMODEMMs MDM E box and should be known from his Opal Tapes and Mr. Saturday Night releases a few years ago. PEDER MANNERFELT delivers a trippy, drunk masterclass drumlesson, taking house apart with his "Dumb Drums".

London label @nervoushorizon may be rooted in the capital, but that's never prevented it from showcasing artists, genres and trends from around the world. 

For its latest V/A outing, Nervous Horizon has enlisted new label friends such as @objectblue, Ehua (@ehuamusic) and Chevel (@chevelmusic) alongside mainstays such as DJ Plead (@1djplead) and DJ JM (@deejay_jm) for a neat ten-tracker that delves into the global, hybrid sounds that have become the label's signature over the past few years.

While all tracks are catered towards the dancefloor, no two tracks sound the same. From reggaeton to club delirium to object blue's 'Neo Noir' – a hypnotic techno mutation that echoes the drama and high energy experienced in one of blue's sets – it's a brilliant comp filled with brilliant artists from a label that's only getting better.

'NH V/A VOL. 3' will be released on November 15. Pre-order below.

At a time when unfair austerity is increasing inequality and leaving so many behind, we hope to support a community that has given so much to the 'scene' and music we love. Digi-dub abstractions and drifting ambient to kaleidoscopic breaks and newly-coined genre, 'subtle donk', it's a pretty accurate microcosm of the If-Only curation as a whole.

--------------

Soft and calm, we, like light
fray into gentle chaos.
Big material unfurls
Then turns to collect, reform –
Like breaths, draw in
To new poise and structure;
Solid and slow.
Never still. Glacial.

Think back, before
A piece of things,
Moving alone, once a part –
But when is the fragment
not the whole?
When is the whole not the whole?
The salt which made the chalk
Which made the cliff
Which made the slate -

Hard to see,
Once a part and still, we are,
A piece of something else.

Sweat Equity NYC marks its second entry into the world of wax with a super-heated four tracker from Vancouver’s acid queen, Overland. Adding another chapter to her growing discography, ‘Void Function’ is an undeniably propulsive addition to Overland’s ever-growing rave oeuvre.

Before relocating to Vancouver, Overland sharpened her skills in the snowy expanses of Alberta. A tireless DJ and promoter, she's hosted a score of all-nighters and club events across the city, making her mark as an enthusiastic booster of a vibrant scene.

Her tracks embody her DJ sets, a frenetic fusion of classic acid techno with fresh rave sensibilities, both razor-sharp and mind-expanding in the same breath. Her ability to connect scenes and sounds from across the globe found fertile soil quickly, and releases followed on Los Angeles-based Helpful Music and Lisbon’s finest purveyor of peak-time heaters, Naive.

Void Function is a tenacious step forward in the evolution of the banger, moving from up front scorchers to more meditative grooves that still rip.
Lead track "NASA" is a blistering alkaline thumper that melts straight into “Rain,” a melodic groover suitable for the first rays of morning light through warehouse windows. "Doubtful" returns to slammer country, bursting onto the B-side with swells of white noise and an utterly relentless rhythm that sets up the closing tune “Seasons,” which pulls dancers through a swirling torrent of hazy, flickering sonics, and a subtle sense of swing that serves as a perfect tool for winding the floor up, or cooling it down.

Void Function is a bold transmission from a singular artist and a certified a scorcher with room to spare for inter-dimensional dancefloor reveries. 

Tracks:
1. NASA 
2. Rain 
3. Doubtful

SWT033 - Overland - Void Function

She'd taken to fixating on the slow moving hands on the clock, tap tap tapping away at her desk with the end of her pen. It was almost as if she went in to a trance-like state when she entered the building each day; doing what she needed to do, but never more. Instead she spent the majority of her time day dreaming about escaping this dull place, of moving on to pastures new, of taking on new challenges and embarking on exciting adventures. It would happen, eventually.

With a background in scoring video games and animated movies, Warsaw-based producer and sound designer Ku Ku has a real knack for playing with unusual techniques and lush, atmospheric motifs. Following contributions for compilations on Classical Trax and BAS, which is the label this new release lands on, Ku Ku presents a collection of four original tracks plus three remixes, that were spawned from hours of material that have since been remoulded and formed into a cohesive release that meanders through sparse electronics, video game samples and shoegaze flourishes.

The flames burned brightly, spitting out orange embers as they crackled and hissed abrasively. She'd taken to setting fires in the garden each evening; she called it her daily purge. In silence she would sit cross-legged staring directly into the flames, sometimes for hours and hours until the flames dwindled and a pile of ash would take its place. What ran through her head during these rituals nobody knew, as long as they continued to be confined to her thoughts and not turned into actions...

Sin Maldita is the new moniker of Berlin-based producer and Amnesia Scanner collaborator Tim Roth, also known for his work under 1K Flowers. His debut album, You’re Trouble, dances on the fringes of beauty and chaos, creating a striking juxtaposition of jagged, abrasive rhythms with serene and harmonic atmospheres and chords. Seemingly defying genre and boundary, his androgynous take on avant-pop blended with elements of experimental club music urges you to listen and examine, and to "find relief in imperfection and the in-between".
