PictureShift - Glaciers [Between Fields]

The phone rang off the hook, the shrill tone resounding around the room. Suddenly he jolted upright, out of his daydream and back into reality; back intro the throes of his working day... He took the receiver off the hook, and closed the door to his office - work could wait. Though he'd played the game and hustled his way up to the top, he still believed that people shouldn't spend their whole lives working - working for what exactly? Now he was just counting down the days until he could take that full time vacation.

Proprietors of 'Mutations of the Hardcore Continuum', Melbourne's Branch Points are enlisting the help of six artists for their first ever VA release. Featuring artists from across the globe, the EP brings together Pugilist, Caldera, Dawn Razor, Lithe & Imitation Therapy, Hartta and Barley, all of whom offer up their own takes on functional club music. Of course, it's not that straightforward though: the producers all roam the off kilter spaces of dance music, exploring complex rhythms, staccato beats and rumbling bass frequencies.

PREMIERE: Caldera - Full Time Vacation [Branch Points]

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: POD - Horizon [KV005]

The fifth installment on Kinetic Vision is a solo EP by POD in a similar vein to the much lauded
SQZR EP by POD and Edward Richards. The release explores the territory between Hypnotic
Techno, Jungle and Dubstep.
POD leans into deep Techno sound design with syncopated rhythms overlaid with psychedelic
textures. The EP starts off with a slower tempo before moving into the faster Dubstep and
Jungle BPM’s. The unifying flavour throughout is a dreamy and dub like half time feel with an
emphasis on hardware drum and synth recording. Breaks and other samples are used more
sparingly.

Poly Chain is the project of Sasha Zakrevska – a composer, curator, DJ, designer and radio host from Kyiv, Ukraine.
Aiming to bring breath of fresh air into the scene, Poly Chain carefully delivers ambient and club-ready textures with a relevant hypnotic electro imprint. Her performances for CXEMA and Unsound Festival pointed out the inner message of her sound, from a meditation perspective to a fractured condition; music is the vessel. The audience remembers her recent split ep with Nene H for Standard Deviation, the multidisciplinary label platform – offspring of ∄. Poly Chain’s productions represent a majestic musical architecture, shaping warm analogue, electronic images.

We want to establish new ways to think and act collectively via sonic means. Sound’s ability to touch the listener, to involve them via emotional and physical affection, turns the sonic into a partner in the fight for a more just world. Sonic Agency is led by urgency and the pressing need for articulation. It is an effort to enable and reinforce transformative processes in our societies, while critically questioning hegemonic systems. Sonic Agency opens up space for a caring community of equals. Sonic Agency is grounded in the sonic’s ability to introduce the feeling of connectivity, and the possibility of community – a community yet to come.

…being together, in community
