A message from the Board of Directors:

On behalf of all associates and expendable workforce alike who are part of this company, we would like to express our utmost gratitude to all our stakeholders, costumers and countless other victims who have stayed loyal to the brand in the last couple of years, since we commenced our shady business.

I could go on and on with these endless, empty formalities, but instead, I would like to remind you that this message is nothing but the casket of our manifesto, the vision that we stand for. The reason why we wake up everyday and begin squeezing our brains out trying to come up with new ways to empty your pockets. And this is one more of them! Our products? An unpredictable set of filth. There is no added value! Think of it as a one man operation where all the dirty work comes from someone with an inhumane lack of ethics. Corporate culture at its best!

So get up your big asses, go grab your mother's credit card from her purse and don't think twice before ordering this mixtape immediately on Bandcamp (don't bother looking for it elsewhere you dingus, it's called E-X-C-L-U-S-I-V-E, as nobody else would distribute this). The boss himself carefully cherrypicked some of the pieces of sound art and poorly processed drum machine music that made him the prestigious businessman he is today! Did he mix them right? Absolutely not! No careful planning in this one. Only pure financial predator instinct on three decks during 90 minutes long. Plain and simple. Shipping now!!! I am already in your mailbox!!!

Let's stick to the lack of plan!

"FRAMING*" an event about the relationship between people and the camera. In today's world full of images, photography is more than just taking pictures—it's a way to express ourselves and tell our stories.

Through a camera lens, a frame, a canvas, a considered sentence, we capture & shape our experiences, viewpoints, and emotions, creating snapshots that share how we see the world.

See Blue Audio: ambient / electronic / beatless / cinematic / downtempo / eclectic / introspective… Shade rather than light...

Following 'Mutual Expression', his recent collaborative project with f5point6, Rhombus Index returns with a solo album, 'hycean'. This will be his fourth release on See Blue Audio and represents a further step in the artist's musical evolution; this is a world where the interplay between the organic and the digital takes centre stage, and it has a special resonance in these days of artificial intelligence and machine learning. 'hycean' is the fifty-fifth release on See Blue Audio and, reflecting their symbiotic relationship, a new solo album from f5point6, 'A Random Sequence of Events', will also be released on the same day. An art booklet of images generated during the creation of 'hycean' is included with the album.

As an electronic artist from West Yorkshire, Rhombus Index inhabits a geographical and historical space where modern, industrial society and the power of nature collide. It's only logical, therefore, that these contradictory forces come out in his music. 'hycean' is an exploration of sounds that evoke images of organically grown digital creatures and objects. The typically enigmatic track titles, artwork and video for 'Digital Anemone' serve as a guide for the listener: imagine a future evolution of organic beings merging with digital inorganic entities to form a new kind of life.

The production tools used on 'hycean' include generative sequencers, field recordings, wavetable synthesis and rompler synthesisers, while the closing track, 'Coastal Curve', was developed using sonification of coastal path measurement data. These techniques and references to areas like video game technology are a constant thread in the work of Rhombus Index, and the natural and digital worlds are ever crashing into each other in a kind of dance.

Over the seven tracks of 'hycean', the pastoral electronic sound of Rhombus Index is in full effect. The embrace of washes of warm synth chords, beats fall like smatterings of spring rain, and that playful elegance abundantly found in nature. Faster tempos on tracks like 'Flotsam' add another dimension, while remaining essentially ambient. The artist has always drawn influences from the dancefloor and rave culture, and 'Digital Anemone' captures the kind of Balearic aura that is the essence of dance music. The beatless aesthetic of See Blue Audio is also represented on 'Elytron' and 'Polyeme'.

'Digital Anemone' was created in reverse with the video elements made first and then the music written to fit the video. The sounds of digital anemone creatures are heard in the opening minute as high pitch synth warbles. Once the track was completed, it was then fed back into the video to make it audio reactive.

The accompanying eight-page, full colour booklet contains conceptual images that were created using a generative process applied during developing the image for the cover artwork. These images could be seen as depicting the new digital flora and fauna that has evolved alongside the music. The booklet also contains fragments of data, but what these data sets mean and how they relate to the images is for the listener to figure out should they wish.

A gentle harmony runs throughout 'hycean', but this harmony is not without contrast and conflict. The album is a personal reflection on the fusing of organic and digital realities, and the journey of discovery that the introduction of generative artificial intelligence has brought into our lives. We have little idea how it will end. With its lightness of touch and moments of rare beauty, 'hycean' thoroughly deserves to be enjoyed and recognised as a richly insightful piece of work.

loytr @ GIMIC - 20 February 2025

Leftfield is a British electronic music group formed in 1989. It began as the duo of Neil Barnes and Paul Daley. In January 2010 Barnes resurrected Leftfield without Daley and, after touring for a few years, finished writing new material for a third album entitled Alternative Light Source. Daley declined to be involved and is focusing upon his solo career. The duo was very influential in the evolution of electronic music in the 1990s, with Mixmag describing them as "the single most influential production team working in British dance music". As with many of their contemporaries, such as the Chemical Brothers, Leftfield was notable for their use of guest vocalists in their works. Among those involved were Toni Halliday on "Original", Johnny Rotten on "Open Up", Djum Djum on "Afro-Left", and Earl 16 and Cheshire Cat on "Release the Pressure". The term progressive house was coined to define their style, a fusion of house with dub and reggae.

In an interview with Neil Barnes and Paul Daley of the group, published in 2017 on The Skinny, Paul Daley mentioned how John Peel influenced Leftfield via dub and reggae: "Dub and reggae had been around in my life from punk gigs of the mid seventies, and listening to the John Peel late night shows of the late seventies – it had a big influence on a lot of the feel of Leftism."

Music curator and a selector. Avid record collector (cd's and vinyls) and a mixologist since the late 1990's. Radio show host from 2000 to 2009. Resident DJ from 2002 to 2012. I spend a lot of time listening to new and older music, curation is my passion.

------------------------------------------------

Music I like : ambient, techno, dub-tech, deep house, Detroit Techno, IDM, downtempo, trip-hop and hip-hop, funk, electro, italo-disco, synth pop, new wave, krautrock, jazz, OST & dub. 

Infuences :  Kraftwerk, Brian Eno, Biosphere, Can, Vangelis, Global communication, Autechre, FSOL, Photek, Aphex Twin, David Toop, Laurent Garnier, Plastikman, Underworld, Speedy J, Gescom, Beyond records, Waveform, Rising High, DJ Shadow, Monolake, Bandulu, UR, Basic Channel & Chain Reaction, Rhythm & Sound, Rockers Hi-Fi, Burial and lately : EEE edits, Kuniyuki, Dialog, Music From Memory (label) and Sound migration.

I am mostly interested in mingling with record collectors, art lovers & music connoisseurs alike. Real DJ's who play live and collectors of physical medias. Birds of a feather flock together!

Par amour de la diffusion sonore est née la création d’une web radio qui rénove les bienfaits de l’écoute. À travers la radio Dia plus besoin de nuancer la stupéfaction car elle est pure.
Basée dans la baie de Donibane Lohizune, DIA s’engage à retranscrire la diversité de son territoire hors de ses frontières, en mettant en avant ses protagonistes dans un vacarme agité et harmonieux.
Du podcast studio aux balades sonores en passant par des émissions hors murs, D.I.A se veut une zone de parole et d’expression pour les gens qui la côtoient.

Let's stick to the lack of plan.
