Excerpt from Scram III (DJ Gonz, Leeway, Fairshair & Qiraqi)

Rabih Beaini, his work as Morphosis brought an organic edge to techno, twisting 808 and MS20 tones into heady workouts that satisfied dancers and chin-strokers in equal measure. 2011's What Have We Learned was an entry point for many listeners, but there's always been much more to Beaini than improvised techno. His upbringing in Lebanon set off a passion for music that crosses borders, be they stylistic, cultural or geographical, and his work as a DJ, label-owner and curator all riff on these hybridised themes.

A. Campbell Payne dives deeply into the crystalline chimes and resonant bells of FM synthesis for the six tracks of 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒊𝒍𝒔 + 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔. Swirling polyrhythms and ambiguous modal harmonies convey their feelings during a fitful period of recording during 2020-1. Payne says, “Living between two places[…], going through the motions of travel while not going anywhere new created a restless atmosphere for performing this music,” which is reflected by cyclic structures both within and between tracks.

In contrast to the sparkling timbres of 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒊𝒍𝒔 + 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔, subtle compositional instabilities imply an underlying unease. But as a complete suite, it is intended as “an aide in processing feelings of dread, anxiety, and hopelessness”, and Payne continues: “I encourage you to listen to this while on a hike or in other contemplative, open settings.”

A. Campbell Payne - Field (ENMB-09)

Here we are with another delusional moment of our imaginary life. We assume you never much had the opportunity to be a spectator of an ectoplasmic military parade from the Middle-East? Well, we probably have found the soundtrack to it, on the aptly named Ghost Dance label, run by dear Brahim Lumière. An invitation to the Palestinian Beatmaker Asifeh to gather 14 dystopian tracks on a handmade cassette. 
After Sangre Voss' EP, the Saint-Etienne imprint delves now deeper into the vaporous limbo of experimental music, with these dirty, Lo-Fi oriental loops, constantly fluctuating between dark, violent, melancholic, folkloric or occult atmospheres.
A tumultuous exploration of the concept of infiltration which lies behind the 'Tasalul' LP title.

To be released on December 5:

Two years after the 𝐃𝐀𝐑𝐊𝐎𝐒 𝐋𝐏, Jonquera is back to Charlieu’s surrounding vales for his second album on 𝔹𝔸𝕄𝔹𝕆𝕆 𝕊ℍ𝕆𝕎𝕊. 

Through 𝐋𝐚 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐱 𝐝𝐞𝐬 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐬, the French Musician delivers a loner-folk eclogue about the fantasized inner demons of a country dweller. Just like clay, audio recordings here are a malleable substance, slowly reworked over a year, following a sinuous production process where all mishaps are welcomed as breaches to step into. 
Far from the spaghetti western myth of the reckless bounty hunter, riding his faithful horse in the great outdoors to spill blood; this 14-track album is the grieving lament of a wistful cowboy, longing for a simple patch of peace where one’s free to cultivate the earth and noodle on the guitar.

Heldon’s cosmic space-rock, Badalamenti’s Twin-Peaksesque foggy jazz or Morricone’s glorious soundtracks, so many references to portray another fertile imprint by Jonquera, available from February 13, 2023 on a 12” vinyl. To get along with a limited-edition woven scarf.
