La Soluzione È Una

Dame Area - No Pares De Trabajar [Mannequin Records]

Raphael Vendramini returns to brokntoys for a third outing after his previous EPs The Invisible and Works.

Comprised of 5 tracks, Moments sees the producer showcasing his trademark sound, merging slowly building arpeggiated synths with bittersweet melodies.

Moments

L'Automat - Moment 2

Hands trembling, lip quivering; she struggled to keep her poise when he entered the room. She didn't know what had come over her, she was never like this. In fact she considered herself a cool, calm and confident person but there was something about his presence that instilled fear into her. She couldn't put her finger on what it was, but it didn't sit well with her. She felt as though she were losing control.

For their next outing Italy's Raw Culture welcome Fontaine SMC to the family: a project made up of two French artists and friends. Joined by their shared passion for electronic music, the duo have previously released several projects under other names which have often been filed under IDM and electro, but this time round they're diving deep into their love for synthwave and punk. Titled 'I Was A Soldier' the EP is a social criticism and exploration of human fears and hard relationships, voiced through a blend of EBM, raw, industrial synthesis and punkish, commanding vocals.

Nicolas Estany is known for his silken synth productions and lurid live shows under his moniker Visonia. Born in the shadows, this mini-album presents a new sound by the Chilean.

Bruised beats, crushed compositions and lacerated lyrics are the new terrain explored, percussion melting with voice in the morphing “The Brain Plays With Me”and shapeshifting “Don’t Trust In The First Whispers". Drums are bolstered across the sextet, rain and rust clinging to brutalised “Who Will Enter First” before rage and warmth melt in “Aphasia.” Yet, in spite of these darker machinations, that unmistakable balance of Visonia is present; it dawns in the title piece with its woebegone words, before resurfacing in the furtive liquid electronics of “Melted Doubts.

DT PREMIERE: Stallion's Stud - Voice Of No

@patriciakaas

"This is Bizarr, my first full length record. On this release, I tried to amp up the ritualistic tendencies found on the Diabel EP, which was also released at Knekelhuis. I’ve always been intrigued by the world of rituals and transcendence, both from an anthropological and spiritual perspective. Bizarr is built around these concepts and to create it I traveled to the island of Phuket, Thailand, to experience and embrace the soul and spirit of the Nine Emperor Gods festival, also known as the Vegetarian Festival. It has its origins in the beginning of the 19th century and is held annually in September/October in accordance with the Chinese lunar calendar. The latter makes sense, because Phuket is home to a large Taoist Chinese minority, an ethnic group calling themselves Peranakan. They are descendants of Chinese settlers, who believe that abstinence from meat and various stimulants is beneficial to good health, peace, and purity of the mind. The celebrations include performances held to invoke the gods, where white-clad participants act like mediums. These so-called Masong strive to achieve a pure state of being that enables them to connect with their ancestors and demons. When this state of trance is reached, ancestors are able to enter body and soul. Flagellation and auto-mutilation are used to reach this possessed plain of consciousness. These acts of piercing, flagellating and puncturing different body parts with knives, swords and other items simultaneously enhance this state. It may look torturous, but pain is absent due to the trance-like state and the protection of the gods, resulting in little blood or scarring.  
 
This fascination for these unusual rituals didn’t come out of thin air. My music has been deeply influenced by the legendary Coil, whose Peter Christopherson (also of Throbbing Gristle fame) moved to Thailand after Coil co-member Jhonn Balance died in 2004. Peter explored the world of Thai ritualistic culture as The Threshold HouseBoys Choir, releasing Form Grows Rampant, an album based on material collected at GinJae festival, a Nine Emperor Gods variation held in the Thai Krabi region. Unfortunately, Christopherson’s untimely death prevented him from furthering his explorations into the sound and spirit of his new country of residence. The Threshold HouseBoys Choir’s music and videos clearly paved the way for my interest in Thai culture. I delved into the world of Thai ritual practices, reading and watching as many sources as possible, before deciding to take things a step further by visiting the Vegetarian festival myself. This truly emotional and deeply inspirational journey left an indelible impression on me. I sensed something I can only describe as ‘vision almost tangible’, which gave me a very clear view on how the record would materialize. Bizarr signifies a defining step for me as an artist. The whole experience not only taught me a lot about the otherness of Thai culture, but even more so about the peculiarities of Western society - especially the superficiality of solely focusing on material gain."

Patricia Kokett - Hexerrr

He swooped aggressively over the village doing his daily inspections, a routine that occurred every day for an hour or so, around half two in the afternoon. Nosediving through the sky, he soared above the village gardens, violently shaking the windows and knocking over all manner of objects with the sheer force of his wings. The sky remained home but down here was his playground.

Following the inaugural release from label boss Sherø, Berlin-based label KlubKid return with their second release; a debut EP from Haute Dance, a project made up of DJ and artist Marina Bibik, DJ Kirill Shapovalov and producer Unfound. Our pick from the self-titled EP is 'Toxic' which blends emotional darkwave and EBM influences with haunting vocals and vintage electro sounds.
