● [SWINE PREMIERE] ● Los Angeles-based electronic music duo @xenmodel is releasing their new EP via Montreal-based label @causalchainclub (March 3rd)

➽ "Timesaver" is the name of the Xen Model’s third full-length album and second release on Causal Chain. The 9-track LP stays true to the duo’s eccentric sound while delving into the introspective side of their productions.

➽ "The track „Controller“ stood out the most from the project for me. It is hard to describe with words, but maybe the term „Braindance“ (imagine artists like Aphex Twin, Autechre, Squarepusher, Venetian Snares, Boards of Canada, μ-Ziq) captures the mood of the music accurately. It's like a living organic-electronic-hybrid thing, something between a modular synthesizer, a liquid alien-like creature, and a plant all in one."

"French electronic duo Glass and producer Maoupa Mazzocchetti joined forces for their first collaborative release: 'Y Head', a 9 track album including remixes from Swiss artist NVST and New-York based Morrocan composer Bergsonist. Glass and Maoupa deliver 7 heavy hybrid club bullets where glitchy sound design melts with epic synths and deep basses. The two remixers were invited to cut up and reinterpret the tracks 'Rue des Rosiers' and 'Near Bones'."

Dive into the dark, raw, and unrelenting world of Hajj with the "Repulsive Reflections Thru This Fucking Phone Remixes" EP, a complex exploration of the sinister and the introspective. This release on Bad Tips offers a striking contrast between two distinct sonic territories, encapsulating both the chaotic energy of the club and the deeper, spiritual realms of late-night introspection.

The EP opens with four explosive remixes of "Reflections on Repulsiveness," a track originally featured on Bad Tips' "Good Vibes Vol. 1." Hajj's own VIP version amplifies the hardcore and metal elements, transforming the track into a ferocious, head-banging anthem that descends into the abyss. King Doudou then takes us to the twisted streets of São Paulo, infusing the remix with nervy, repulsive funk, while Ronce delivers a corrosive, gritty interpretation that oozes with raw intensity. The duo Vina Konda & Mortal Voracity cap off the first half with a relentless mix, blending metal, bass, and Jersey influences into an indigestible yet euphoric concoction.

The second half of the EP delves into a more introspective space with four remixes of "I Tried To Tell Ya Something Thru This Fucking Phone," originally released on BFDM in 2020. Hajj's VIP reimagines the track with a darker, more nocturnal atmosphere, shifting from the original’s early morning vibes to a late-night intensity. Ukrainian producer Comechelet follows with a remix that balances progressive, militaristic rhythms with an organic, dark shimmer. Gargantuan Collapse (Gargantuan Grief x Modern Collapse) offers a raw, nihilistic take, imbued with a bleak romanticism. Toma Kami then brings the EP to a close with an abrasive yet spiritual rendition, channeling a primal sense of urgency.

This EP doesn’t shy away from experimentation, embodying the boundary-pushing ethos of Bad Tips. Though the release is rooted in a somber, pessimistic outlook, it resonates with the audacious spirit that defines the label. Available digitally and on CD via Bandcamp, this release will also be accompanied by a limited-edition T-shirt featuring artwork by tattoo artist Pepittta. To mark the occasion, a launch event will be held at Station Gare des Mines in Paris on September 21st, featuring performances from Hajj, Vina Konda & Mortal Voracity, Gargantuan Collapse (live), Ronce, Toma Kami, and label head gboi.

Mindwaves Music is pleased to present Audio Scape, a diverse compilation of various artists curated by the Berlin based DJ duo ChillinBerlin.

This release marks a significant moment, serving as the second compilation assembled by Jus10 and Pat Flanders, whose initial selection, "Mindwaves Plantation" (2008), was the very catalyst that sparked the birth of the Mindwaves Music label. Over a decade later, ChillinBerlin returns to showcase the label's matured soundscape and new artist roster.

This essential sampler is a deep dive into the more cerebral and intricate realms of modern electronic music. It deliberately spans the atmospheric depth of experimental electronica and the complex, fragmented rhythms of IDM, culminating in a selection of tracks affectionately termed braindance.

The ChillinBerlin duo meticulously maps the currents between glitch, melody, and rhythm, showcasing visionary producers who push the boundaries of sound design. The result is a high-fidelity sonic journey designed for inner exploration—a rewarding soundtrack for the mind's eye.

Inside The Machine

Køps - Inside The Machine

This track was curated and made with Splice and FL Studio. I wanted to curate the sounds and loops to create somewhat of a chaotic, random assortment of sounds and beats and vocals. Phonk gives me that freedom to do so. 
I can feel my molecules, shifting and swaying when I listen to Phonk music. Brazilian music has a very unique and eclectic vibe. It gives me the feeling of traveling through the jungle in a spaceship.
