"Time to Leave and Never Return" by VAIA is an introspective three-track journey, navigating the tension between departure and transcendence - raw emotional depth.

Hailing from Uruguay, VAIA and PUMIC deliver a three-track sonic odyssey where ambient atmosphere, sound design, deep textural composition, and spatial sound manipulation shape a narrative of departure and transformation.

"Time to Leave and Never Return" explores emotional disintegration and rebirth, crafted through intricate electroacoustic techniques and immersive soundscapes.

"Time to Leave and Never Return" EP is an intimate statement from VAIA, where deeply personal themes merge with refined sonic craftsmanship. PUMIC expands the vision further, contributing his distinct approach to audiovisual deconstruction.

This release reflects VAIA’s refined approach to sonic abstraction and emotive sound architecture, with PUMIC extending its depth through his signature audiovisual deconstruction. A work where controlled entropy and sonic alchemy converge into a profound listening experience.

This EP showcases VAIA's masterful control of electroacoustic abstraction and deep sound architecture. In collaboration with PUMIC, this EP expands beyond auditory perception, merging electronic abstraction with emotional intensity. A dense, immersive work where sound becomes both an escape and an awakening.

Vvanya Samokrutkin — OT's Morning Flight

"OT's Morning Flight," a spontaneously created composition by Vvanya Samokrutkin, arises from silent observation of the vibrant and chaotic atmosphere of the 14th arrondissement of Paris. This motionless reflection leads the artist to contemplate the fleeting nature of existence.
The reflective practice emphasizes the melody that both opens and closes the piece. This work integrates environmental recordings made in public spaces, sculpted synthetic textures, and percussive patterns that defy linear or predictable development.

Rhythmic and noise-driven, "OT's Morning Flight" builds tension through processed field recordings and unstable percussive structures. As an electroacoustic piece, it blends synthetic textures with sounds from the streets of Paris, creating a site-responsive composition rooted in controlled dissonance and repetition.

Rather than following a narrative, the sonic system resists resolution, inviting focused, process-based listening.

Cortex Jammes - Tales of the Borderlands / systemnapotvora.live

A live jams collection of ritual psychedelic soundscapes that have absorbed the power, calm and silence of some Ukrainian sacred sites - Devil’s Rocks of Vynnyky forest, Ternoshory archaeo-astronomical complex, ancient cave monasteries of Bakota and Rozgirche, a lonely Buddhist temple on top of a Carpathian mountains, Trakhtemyriv peninsula etc. “The way this place makes you feel", that is, it contains a set of ambient sensations that allows you to feel the present moment of time in this place more deeply. Although it is impossible to explain in words, it is much easier to feel and hear.

The mood of the music is a warm, captivating darkness in which otherworldly and abstract sound objects move, greeting either the works of Rapoon or Rod Modell, or the 90’s ambient rave improvised jams of Ambient Temple of Imagination.
