he word hypnosis gets thrown around a lot. We don’t use it lightly.
The well seasoned Tokyoite presents 6 originals in this list that tick all the boxes for an altered state of consciousness: long interlocking grooves, suspended in mercurial harmony as seen in “Varuna” and “Interplanetary”, heightened focus and concentration in the broken, escalating rhythm of “Orcus” and the low-pH levels of “Quaoar”. Ultimately seen off by the elegant mesmerism of “Edgeworth’s” cascading snares and looping vocal chant, and the ever shifting balance of “Albion” and it’s unnerving ambience.

A release deeply invested in spatial exploration, but is it the milky way, or a deep neural network we’re looking at?

GTG Premiere | DJ SODEYAMA - Varuna [SNG056d]

Over two decades of unfaltering devotion to production and DJing, dishing out some of the finest slices of opulently textured techno along the way, Tokyo-based maestro DJ Sodeyama has been honing a sound signature both intricately hypnotic and boundary-pushing. Blending delicate melodic strains of electronics ranging from deep, ambient music to verbed-out, atmospheric techno, often laced with hints of jazz and soulful discoid expressions, his productions and mixes combine the satiny elegance of loungey daydream with that of more rugged, deep-diving dubs a la Basic Channel. From light to shade, and vice-versa, DJ Sodeyama builds pieces of music where the ever-changing lighting and shifting angles swath you in an oddly comforting headspace. A most fascinating trip for the body and soul.
