KLUSĀ DABA - Les Fleurs du mal

The ever-reliable London label welcome Montreal artist, laced, who delivers a dreamy cut of sugar-coated rainbow electronics, including a remix from fellow Canadian SIM.

As she closed her eyes she watched colours bleed into one another. They were so vivid she could feel them pour over her face and down her neck. She pictured how it would look. As a deep scarlet filled her ear and a rich blue licked her neck, she too found herself melting into colour.

Caustic Reverie is a 4-track EP which combines the warmth of highly-processed synthesised sounds with harshness of percussive instrumentation in a sunshine-doused exploration of depth and texture. Crisp blips, swishes and tiny twangs tempt the touch, creating a soundscape at once futuristic and psychedelic: not a far cry from the music of foodman or Smerz.
 
On the title track, vibrant synth plucks reverberate around a cavernous space, warming the atmosphere before mutating into a broken techno rhythm. Bolstered by low-end hits and peppered with Jessy Lanza-esque vocal chops, this one’s a real treat for the ears.

The 40th release of katharsis is the EP “Life is Hard” by Malle Voss coming out on April 10th. Following up on his debut release “Death is Easy” on Blue Tapes from 2022, the artist expands his musical pilgrimage into pure and spiritual affection in chaotic and dark territory. By using emotion in a structural way, the 6 tracks portray deep truths of overcoming struggle and turning nonsense into meaning. The tracks work like dark botanical angel artifacts, each with its rituals and prayers of death motivation and enlightenment through hardship. The range of sentiments covers everything from both beauty and joy to aggression and ecstasy, in its messy-by-design style of maximalist minimalism.

"Memöry is a whimsical lament. Climbing up a wooden staircase, you find yourself faced with a once familiar love that exiled you from their mind, now adorned in oleander and ivy.
Cascading watery pianos and synthesized steel guitar frame a shape-shifting voice, playfully posing the question: can you erase me ? 🙃🪦🪽" - Lindred

raptAGOG - Subduction
Subducting // Inscribing [ST095 / Secuencias Temporales]

Written and Produced by Fred Small aka raptAGOG
Mastered by Jorge Eafhm at Secuencias Temporales Studio
Artwork by Scencist
Released by Secuencias Temporales from México City, México
Release Date: November 03rd, 2025

In his debut album, raptAGOG draws inspiration from imagined scenes of geological movement — tectonic plates shifting, subducting, and pressing against one another. 
This hidden but perpetual motion beneath us stores potential energy, waiting for the moment of release, when the earth begins to shift and reshape.

The album opens into a rugged, shifting landscape, where sounds roll and echo in gradual motion. 
This energy builds across the work, unfolding through cycles of tension and release. 
Earthy and textural sounds ground the work in a shifting and fracturing geology.

rapt​AGOG - Subduction [Secuencias Temporales]

This album is the more experimental, mentally unstable extension of the garage inspired style I've been producing in. Jumping off of "Afraid of the Sun", but much more dingy. Inspired by living in this current time, where no one believes you but still experiences it with you.

We are tickled pink to be announcing this top draw bit of tackle from label affiliate Troy Gunner with a killer Herron remix to boot. After his contribution to Unperson’s remix plate it felt right to ask him to put his shin pads on and wade into a 4 tracker. This EP sees Troy traverse a multitude of tempos and forms, using foreboding sonics and clattering percussion to create feelings of pure angst aswell as elation and we can’t wait to hear these in a club setting. Big love to Charlie Maclagan on the art and JGD on the design as per.

All profits made from this release will be donated to the Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust - more info here: https://www.stephenlawrence.org.uk/support-us/donate/
