Orchid

O-Wells - Orchid

There was something different about him that she couldn't put her finger on. It wasn't in the things he said or the way he moved, nor in the clothes he wore or the way he styled his hair. There was a sense of mystique that lured her in, although he appeared open he never gave too much away. She had to know what was under the surface; there was more to him than meets the eye.

DJ and producer Andy Garvey is kicking off the year on her Pure Space imprint with the second instalment of the label's PROXIMITY compilation series. An exploration of the sounds that form Pure Space's DNA, the release captures the contemporary electronic sounds coming out of the Australian underground. Calling on old friends, new faces and veterans of the country's dance music scene, including Reptant, Moktar, IN2STELLAR and Sam Brickel, the 21-track release touches on everything from electro and breakbeat to techno, bass and DnB.

All proceeds from the release will be donated to Aboriginal Legal Services; based in Redfern it is the first Aboriginal Legal Service in Australia and the first free legal assistance service in the country.

PREMIERE: Sam Brickel - Mystique [Pure Space]

Not only was it in his character to be noncommittal, but indecisiveness and uncertainty seemed to dictate his every decision. It would take something very special - or, more to the point, someone very special - to change his behaviour. That day did arrive. He couldn't quite put his finger on what he liked about them, it was an unspeakable feeling that he'd never had before, but for the first time in his life he had no doubt in his mind about what he wanted.

First landing on Bristol-based imprint Shall Not Fade in 2018 with regular collaborator Newborn Jr., Warsaw-based producer Earth Trax, AKA Bartosz Kruczyński, has since gone on to house two solo full length releases on the imprint, LP1 and LP2 Ambient Dance, both back in 2020. Now he returns for his hat trick, The Sensual World, a release written and produced during the pandemic. Spanning a plethora of different sounds and moods, the 13-track release is another showcase of Bartek's ability to craft music that touches all corners of the electronic spectrum, from dreamy house cuts to emotive rave and pounding industrial techno.

Next up on eudemonia is the Frankfurt-based duo not even noticed. With only a couple of vinyl releases during the last years the two artists are relatively new to the scene.

Watch out for more to come in the near future, these guys are on a roll!

A1 - Leftover Dreams

First appearing on the crucial Moroccan label Casa Voyager a few years ago, @kosh212 has been on a roll ever since. An attempt to express both sadness and hopes for the future, ‘Chaos in the City’ @2020visionrecordings is a tribute to the artist’s hometown of Casablanca, a city that can be particularly chaotic during rush hours.

From the persistent 303 lines to the snappy snare drums, there's an abrasive edge to many of the elements here and a haunting quality to the reverb-drenched piano that punctuates the track.
