Name: Track 176 by SystemDisco
Duration: 6 min 16 s
Description: Welcome to the 176th track written by Benjamin Styles Lawless, AKA SystemDisco in this, his latest incarnation. Using the twisted vocal snippet of his long-time muse "SQK", SystemDisco serves up a melodic blend of bass, piano and hihat meltdown. Like SystemDisco himself, this track just gets better and better...

Imagine 22

Harken the largest bass sound in your experience. Harken Still as the melodies flow over you, around you, inside you. This absolutely massive track from SystemDisco is anchored with subterranean and quite frightening bass, complemented expertly with distorted pads. Marvel at the plucked lyre as it supplants. Enjoy as the vocal bites. Rest up, for this sweat inducing beat will require you to Harken Still...

Harken Still

This strictly limited vinyl release is the 5th release to come out of Naarm based label ILIO Records - a label which has housed artists Midnight Tenderness, Mic Mills, DJ Heure and more.

Titled ‘Mood Independent’, this 4 track EP comes from rising Naarm artist Marli. A stunning solo project which exudes 4 different motifs, 4 different genres, and 4 different moods entirely. An artist who has showcased powerhouse sets at Let Them Eat Cake’s main stage, Pitch Music & Arts iconic Pitch Black Stage, and Novel’s signature smalltown event, this release comes highly anticipated.
‘Mood Independent’ is dance music made to make you feel something. - Marli

Written during Melbourne’s extensive lockdown in 2021, the EP explores genres house, breakbeat, nu-jazz, experimental, incorporates spoken word poetry, and Marli’s own vocals. While it dips its toes into being defined as dance music, as always, Marli has executed her signature style beautifully, one that offers more than your average club track. It evokes complex emotions, featuring rich tones and instrumentation, and a sense of nostalgia unlike any other artist.

“Mood Independent” feels like an apt title for this project. I’m proud to have curated, written, produced, and mixed the entire project myself. I didn’t show these works to anyone while writing them - or for a long time after they were finished. Mainly because I wanted to trust my own creative instincts so completely, and not be influenced by others opinions. This was really scary, and at times made me insecure, but I’m really proud of the final project, and I think it feels like the truest expression of me, and my style” - Marli

Having released works on Yellow Island (BRA), Love Above Records (AUS), Backpocket Slammers (AUS), Revolver Upstairs The Late Show Record Label (AUS) and forthcoming releases on Homage (NY) and Velodrome (AUS), this highly anticipated debut EP and record is a stunning introduction into the breadth and maturity of work that Marli exudes when left to her own devices to create freely.

In these dark days we need to hold tight to the good still left. As the beat drops and the bassline thunders, let yourself be swept away by the dark, brooding energy. With SystemDisco's trademark variation, percussive heavy loops, The Good Still Left never strays from bewildering. Irreverent vocal samples from across the media landscape add a confounding aspect. A track for the mystical hours of the night, surrender to the all-consuming rhythm of this music.

Track 176

Do not stand at my grave and weep 
I am not there. I do not sleep. 
I am a thousand winds that blow. 
I am the diamond glints on snow. 
I am the sunlight on ripened grain. 
I am the gentle autumn rain. 
When you awaken in the morning's hush 
I am the swift uplifting rush 
Of quiet birds in circled flight. 
I am the soft stars that shine at night. 
Do not stand at my grave and cry; 
I am not there. I did not die. 

A tribute to my aunty Judith.

A Thousand Winds That Blow

Dimensionless. No known bounds. This bass heavy track takes you deep into the heart of the beast. Follow its twists and turns as it speeds through the galaxy, scattering light in its path. Club ready.

Dimensionless

SystemDisco unveils his full bag of tricks on this track. It blossoms as you listen to it, moving through different stages and providing some truly surprisingly mood swings along the way. It is exotic by damaging some smooth sounds with harsh effects, producing an overall sound of deep bass, a tsunami of percussion, and filtered and effect leads and what might even sound vaguely like a vocal. This Exotic Blossom is something to be savoured, played loud, smelt, and ultimately, enjoyed.

Exotic Blossom

SystemDisco delivers the future of disco – a blend of house, funk, electro and techno.
