SynthMstr3MidiOoda

Four new deep, rhythmic works from Lyon producer Vardae inaugurate new London imprint OODA, co-curated by Forest Drive West and localhost.  The Kaipos EP drifts from ritualistic half tempo drums into deep warping techno and tripped out drones, illustrating Vardae’s unique genre-breaking approach to crafting powerful percussive entrancers for headphones and dancefloor.

A fitting prelude to the OODA project, conceived to explore polyrhythmic techno, bass and ambient experiments in all forms.

Jay R - SOULMEEX 059

Zero Marginal Future" explores the profound impact of a world where knowledge flows freely at no cost, emphasizing the importance of adaptability and unity. The song reflects on the transformative power of open-source innovation and decentralized autonomous organizations. Through poignant lyrics and dynamic melodies, it captures the essence of a future driven by collective intelligence and scientific discovery. This track invites listeners to embrace change, overcome fear, and thrive in an interconnected world, promising freedom and collaboration for eternity. Join us on this journey toward a brighter, boundless future.

Whispers of a future bright,
Knowledge free, in the light.
Zero cost, minds unite,
Breaking dawn, endless sight.

In this age of digital streams,
Learning from the global dreams.
Textbooks fade, we rise above,
Crafting a world with endless love.

At the inflection point, we stand tall (stand tall),
Knowledge flows for one and all.
Turbocharged engines of discovery,
Unlock the secrets of our history.

Generalists adapt with grace,
Speaking in every place.
Quick to learn, quick to lead,
In a world of urgent need.

Embrace the new, cast off fear,
Future bright, drawing near.
Open minds will find the way,
In the light of a brand-new day.

At the inflection point, we stand tall (stand tall),
Knowledge flows for one and all.
Turbocharged engines of discovery,
Unlock the secrets of our history.

OODA loops guide our flight,
Through the chaos, we find the light.
VUCA world, we navigate,
In our hands, we hold our fate.

Science makes us better still,
Human minds, an endless thrill.
Open source, our legacy,
Building paths for all to see.

In this age of digital streams,
Learning from the global dreams.
Textbooks fade, we rise above,
Crafting a world with endless love.

At the inflection point, we stand tall (stand tall),
Knowledge flows for one and all.
Turbocharged engines of discovery,
Unlock the secrets of our history.

In the inflection point, we thrive (we thrive),
Together we come alive.
Future bright, horizon clear,
In this world, we hold dear.

In this digital age, we find our call,
In unity, we rise above it all.
Our minds, our strength, our guiding star,
In this inflection point, we'll go far.

Sciama presents eight tempo-spanning tracks illustrating his signature sound design and beat science expertise on Collapse of Order for OODA2.

Following several essential releases on the venerated Auxiliary imprint, Collapse of Order sees Sciama interlace tactile rhythms with tensile signals and ethereal vocal vapours, anchored by a deep, low-end pressure - evoking a simultaneous sense of desolation and anticipation.

Sciama - Collapse of Order

Ooda [p. @zivo]

For Sciama, music is all about creating a world in which the listener can explore the many facets of human emotion—a journey inward that uncovers both the light and dark within us. Melding elements of UK bass music, experimental sound design, and the grey area between techno and drum & bass, Sciama’s work offers a dynamic and immersive experience. Released across respected labels like Auxiliary, OODA, and A Walking Contradiction, each project showcases intricate layers of textured rhythms, deep atmospheres, and cerebral beats that invite introspection and self-discovery.

Chaindata Radio 21 - Sciama

CAIV deliver rigorous, syncopated machine rhythms on the Lives EP from U.S bi-coastal collaborators Israel Vines and Camile Altay, following on from their formidable debut EP Dwellers on Tresor last year.

Lives is four finely calibrated cuts riding a diverse tempo range, unified by rich harmonics and resonant percussive layering over veiled bass textures, where distortion becomes detail.
