'Return To Innocence' is our imprint of the recent period with the help of our friends from all over the world. A story with which we look to the future with hope.
Imre Kiss’ light-conceived alias 'The Donna Smith Experience' kicks off the sonic tale with the awe-inspiring 'Stay (Let's Float In Space)'. We will greet many dawns with this beauty, that's for sure. We welcome Escape Artist to our label with his spacey-cosmic break called 'A Deep Breath', traveling with it to a forest of an alien planet light years from here. And if we are talking about the sci-fi themes: would you like a retrofuturist beat for your personal transformation? Route 8 is got you delivering 'Be Aware' to your ears, an hommage to DMX Krew & breakdance floors. 
'Closed For Subsidence' with its damaged melody and throbbing bassline evokes the loneliness and darkness we’ve all experienced at some time over the past year, but we feel that Jeigo dripped a little hope for us into the song as well. Wintertime in Vermont, sun is shining on icicles, silence reigns over the forests, these images come to our mind listening to Aspetuck's 'Winterruhe', a slowburner for all the wilderpeople out there. And finally we can say we have another Hungarian producer in the TIOT family. We are proud to present NetSymmetry to you, who is showing himself for the first time under this alias with an eight-minute hallucinatory vision called 'Gene Oscillations' which immediately melted, bubbled, boiled and filtered us into a petri dish. Now let's find a dance partner and hope we can meet this year!

VA - Return To Innocence [TIOT-DIGI3]

The weather was changing, a sombre autumnal breeze drifted softly upon the morning. It sent a small shiver up his spine as he wandered through the park on his way to the day ahead, crunchy leaves crackled underfoot as he walked purposefully forward. Only a few months ago he had been hear, dancing in the warm rays of the sunshine and the blue sky ambience. Now this subtle shift was enough to ensure that his mood was more pensive, thoughtful and reflective on what might come next as the darker months loomed near. 

Eversines is set to feature on a new split EP on Lonely Planets Rec alongside Caim. It's a stellar release which is as welcome in the headphones as it will be on warm dancefloors in cold months. This one comes highly recommended.

Following his solo 12" debut in November on AC Records, Armec returns with a 4-track EP on Echocentric Records. 

The music on offer is rich and emotional, microworlds of subtle melodies, pads and sci-fi drones that ooze both melancholy and hope, and will appeal to anyone into electro, IDM and techno.

A-side is a nod to Robbie's IDM roots. Just check the expansive soaring synth-work on "Auden" and the analogue moods of "Conceptualise". The droney, murky & dystopian sci-fi soundscapes of side B offer another view into Armec's production work.

Keep an eye out for Armec in 2020, more quality releases on their way.

A1. - Auden
A2. - Conceptualise
B1. - Disassociate
B2. - Dystopian Reality

Armec - "Diametric EP" is scheduled for release on the 24th of Jan 2020 both on vinyl and digital formats. 

Produced by Robbie Mecrow
Mastered at Curve Pusher by Lawrie Dunster
Vinyl distributed by Shite Music (@shitemusic), manufactured by R.A.N.D. Muzik

Echocentric Records is a Finnish label run by @deeprhythms releasing lush & dreamy electronic music.

'Ave it!

Armec - Diametric EP - ECR003

The subconscious cave is not an empty space in the conscious mind,
it is a bubbling space, haunted by questions and mystical activity.

“Natif” (Stalactite - in Hebrew) is a seventh tracks EP by Tel-Aviv based DJ and producer MYKI.

Any substance, water drip or murmur reveals a cloak of meaning in the form of a showy echo.
a variety of ancient animals, forbidden imaginary fruits and mysterious passions sneak in at night and look for a place of refuge to rest, to sleep.
The stalactites (Natif) are amorphous juice from the bottom of the mind, they are the seeds of confusion and irrationality and they seep through cracks in the cave and produce chaos and trembling until suddenly, out of a nightmare are born proud crystals of splendor and inspiring beauty.

Natif

TFSTK008 : MYKI - Natif (snippets)

It had began with small, trivial suggestions - changes that she could manage and adapt to quickly. They weren't life-changing, purely superficial or aesthetic, but soon enough these asks became bigger. He was trying to mould her into something she wasn't. Challenging him wasn't an option, she didn't like to go against the grain, rather she preferred to keep quiet and stay in line. 

Since launching back in 2016, Melbourne-based producer and label boss Louis Marlo has used his Felt Sense Recordings imprint as a platform to share his own creations with the world. Though there has been a four year hiatus since Louis' last two releases, this serves the label's ethos of prioritising quality over quantity. His third outing, Who Wants Alchemy?, is no exception. Coming complete with a remix from Lou Karsh AKA Reptant, the 5-track release blends electro, IDM and techno, at times calling to mind the more stirring side of Carl Finlow's productions through its glistening melodies, warm basslines and processed electronics.
