Ambient melancholia and dream-like states for a December Monday.

Last month, our old friend Daneil Herrmann aka Flug 8 made a triumphant return to Ransom Note Records with his new album, Bermuda LP, his first release with us since 2020’s Electric Fields. Comprising nine ethereal tracks evoking the serene beauty of space, each piece sparkled like distant stars and cosmic ambiance. “A weightless experience akin to witnessing a celestial phenomenon,” propeling listeners beyond the asteroid belt, emerging through cosmic gas clouds.  Flug 8’s most ambitious and timeless work to date, we couldn’t not ask for his take on a ‘Monday Is OK’ mix for 2023.

Ransom Note is an online music, arts and culture magazine. We provide a home for readers and writers with boundless enthusiasm, esoteric knowledge, fierce opinions and impeccable taste.

With our core team immersed in all aspects of dance music, we publish news, articles, and interviews covering the greatest in innovative, underground culture from across the globe. We offer regular, exclusive music and mixtapes from our favourite artists, and publish features shining a light on everything from the freshest new artists to the untold tales from rave history.

Alongside this we offer musings on film, books, life, and art, generating some context and controversy as an antidote to the reheated PR that clogs up the internet. Our office is fuelled by Tunnock’s Bars, cat memes, hangovers and a ridiculous, never ending love for our culture.

We're always interested in getting new writers on board – feel free to get in touch if you’ve got a story to tell.

With love until the grave.
