Spring begins to bloom as seedlings lay down their roots, a sturdy foundation for their generational journey. The masters of the journey, those perennial species that brave the cycles of the earth, continue to endure. Rewind nearly 20 years to a festival in Augsburg, Germany, called Lab30, which featured a bouquet of forward-thinking musical pioneers. In that collective were the cross-genre band KiloWatts and Vanek, who had played their first show in 2004 as part of a gathering of like-minded music producers and artists worldwide, focusing heavily on experimental electronic music and art.

Fast forward to the present, KiloWatts and Vanek have reunited in a boundlessly special album called Perennials. The album is a truly impressive blend of their classic signature sound and multiple nods to musical innovations that have sparked in between their albums. In celebration of Perennials, the duo decided to reach out to some of those artists for a reunion, as well as collaborate with new friends made along the way. The collection spans a network of producers from near and far, old and new, with eyes looking to the future. The remix collection offers a bountiful selection for all musical minds, from the intelligently precise ethereal offerings by Orphax, The Village Orchestra, Megaheadphoneboy, and Lackluster to the upbeat midtempo music from Erothyme, Gift Culture, Polygon Rainbow, and PointBender. Heavier techno placements from PointBender and Andrew Sega ultimately crescendo into the edit-heavy, dub offering from PHAENOS. Rediscover the Perennials listening experience with this dynamic selection of remixed offerings and rediscover the collective experience.

What do many past releases on Harmonious Discord have in common? They are all blessed by the multi-alias shape shifter Echo Conscious (Molecule, Dorian). Brad Dale is a full-time sound engineer and head of the label's mastering strategy. In addition, he is an early shaper of the Harmonious Discord sound. However, this time, Brad is the one changing shape. Emotional Patterns is an 11-track exploration of the deep understanding that Brad has for sonic invention predicated by his work as a mastering engineer, audio instrument designer, and film soundtrack composer. In this album, Brad steps away from the console and into an expansive palette, infusing his love of dub electronics, UK bass beat construction, and catchy melody hooks.

"Now Then" bursts the project into existence with fluttering circus melodies and rough and rumble kick construction. "1997" follows with blissful synth intros before cascading to an expertly crafted liquid jungle beat. Melodic dancing abounds as chimes collide with synthesis amid a backdrop of mellotron tension. "Blue Berry" follows trend flexing stuttered vocal programming with a dial into dubbier constructs. "Mycelium" dives deep into theory, as the main rhythm pattern is an electronic impulse measured from a mycelium network. Looped, applied to a kick drum and side-chained. "Daughter" delivers rich piano interplays on top of lush soundscapes and is layered periodically with cut-up home sampling. The album's namesake, "Emotional Patterns", derives strong feelings of anger, excitement, and bliss. Starting with thundering kicks and bass accompanied by dark synth melodies, suddenly shift into light rhode-laden reprises. "Orbital Sunrise" plays deeper on the melodic tension, cycling through lush beds, mellotron patterns, and dub percussion, giving it the lofi downtempo feel with a hint of edge. "Acrosonic" resets with a tine-tinged piano melody that dances with processed and reversed synth calls. This aerial display bubbles into floating arpeggios as the underlying patterns rotate and combine. "Season No More" enters a somber realm, expertly captured piano artifacts in contrast with the mounting arpeggios and washes of cinematic drums. "Space Squirrel" enters with a playful coloring, driving the drum programming into the IDM atmosphere only anchored by the signature drum construction. "Arrive" lands in an expansive atmosphere with pulsating radio waves and synergisticly melodic swells. This album is deserving of a listen from beginning to end, a true testament to a life of sonic creation.

Emotional Patterns

Echo Conscious - Emotional Patterns (Harmonious Discord)

Out Now On Harmonious Discord:

1.  Approaching Eternity (A Path Untold Remix)
2. Conversations With the Void (KiloWatts Interstellar Transmission Remix)
3. Unraveling the Code (Erothyme Remix)
4. Inner Workings of Exterior Processes (The Concept Being Redux)
5. Inner Workings of Exterior Processes (RFRKT REmix)
6. Reconstructing Corrupt Memories (Encounters Remix)

.
Harmonious Discord continues to celebrate the music of Oregon multi-modal artist Polygon Rainbow with this exquisite revisit to his Approaching Eternity EP released earlier this year. The remix consortium delivers a cadre of melodic mysteries, stretching the original contents to new stratospheres. Joining the release are artists KiloWatts, Erothyme, A Path Untold, Encounters, RFRKT, and A Concept Being — a collection of artists who explore the well of infectious inspiration.

A Path Untold washes the title track into a shaded melodic journey with the collision of massive walls of sound playfully dancing with plucked synthetics. Accented with staggered drums, precise bass accents, and penetrating sub-bass. Infinite levels of deepness ascend with expert precision in this opening selection. KiloWatts saddles the stars with his Interstellar Transmission Mix, gently riding comets of cacophony. A tide pool of swirling melodies ultimately produces a dub groove that attracts and synchronizes the melodies like delicate strands of time. Out of the snowy capped tundra comes the next revisit by sonic inventor Erothyme. Showcasing his masterful manipulation of tone and tremolo, Erothyme layers intelligent drum programming with bigger-than-life harmonics. The programming enjoys moments of insanity while always docking safely into a well-tempered workout. Harmonious Discord label chief dons a new moniker aimed at exploring the trails outside the dancefloor with the next remix. The Concept Being teases out the subtle evolutions of “Inner Workings of External Processes,” adding a swung groove to bounce the track onward. A quick diversion finds us at sharp synthetic basslines and a further floating of the many arpeggiated sequences into delicious disorientation. Polygon gets his own hands dirty on the project, this time showing the emerging sounds of his alter moniker RFRKT. RFRKT ups the tempo and drops the bass floor with a dynamic reinterpretation, with phase for days. The final remix comes from Encounters, who constructs around the beautiful dulcet tones and guitar accents in “Reconstructing Corrupt Memories.” There is no end to the levels of euphoria that descend on this epic finale to the Polygon project.

Approaching Eternity Remixes

Polygon Rainbow - Approaching Eternity Remixes (Harmonious Discord)

Out Now On Harmonious Discord:

1.  Lojack
2. Under the Guise of Progress
3. Too Late
4. Like Sand
5. Iniquity
6. Outrun
7. Safety Before Feelings
8. Syntonic Research

The camp at Harmonious Discord is proud to debut Inequity, an eight track album by Daniel Allen’s downtempo/electronica moniker, Disappear. A mix of synthetic soundscapes and earthly delights, Inequity showcases the broad understanding and musical range of the Austin, Texas native and label boss of Denied Music. HD has been working with Daniel to curate this special mix of music for the last year to maximize listener enjoyment of all its musical moments.

Selections like "Lojack," "Outrun," and "Under the Guise of Progress" pay heavy nods to Blade Runner soundscapes set atop swung, syncopated drum construction. "Safety Before Feelings" and "Syntonic Research" capture the same futuristic vibe with a much more ambient tone, focusing on the soundscapes and stripped-away drum additions. "Inequity" parodies the theme with a rounded Reese bass and more organic drum delivery. Rounding out the soundscape are tunes like "Too Late" and "Like Sand" that provide a much more organic appeal, weaving in acoustics and field sampling. Inequity is a surprisingly evenly-tempered mash of musical construction that showcases the other forms of Daniel’s mastery.


Jon Fugler (Fluke) – “Some real gems here - always a pleasure to hear tracks that are not afraid to go a little darker.”  
Tyler Stadius (Deepsite) – “Love this release. Awesome music. Trippy sci-fi, soundtrack timeless.”  
Charles Corcho (Selekta Chang) – “I like this - raw hip hop elements over vocals that reverb out. good dub hip hop/instrumentals, a slow low tempo.”  
Simon Kirk (Proton Radio) – “A deeply rich and broad spectrum of brilliant electronica..Syntonic Research closing the album out is amazing..!”  
DJ Clairvo (Tilos Radio Budapest) – “This is such a warm and perfect release! I love those deep and catchy post-trip-hop-ish vibes! Full support!”  
Clive Craske (RadioReverb, Brighton) – “Both playful and psychedelically deep, this album explores the integration of digital electronics, sample manipulation and analogue synthesis. Accomplished and effective as it is propulsive and mesmeric.”
