To launch the label we present an EP entirely composed by Foreign Sequence, the electronic alias of Tonotopy.

The aesthetics of this EP is related to the universe electro / idm early 90's by a choice of very precise synthesizer. P6, Sh-101, Tb-303, Tr-808 and to coordinate the whole an RS7000 which comes to rhythm this refusal of modernity. Foreign sequence digs into the techniques of the past to find the answers, he shows his know-how here and uses it to express a multitude of emotions between nostalgia and optimism.

A narrative dive in the theme of the label: "Humans dreaming of mechanical beings".

RS7K EP

[PHR01] Foreign Sequence - RS7K EP (w/ Jaquarius & Mono-Enzyme 307 remixes)

The glow from the rays of the mid afternoon sun illuminated the white covered floor with delicate precision. Shadows were scattered beneath the branches of trees whilst the daylight from above was stark and brutally vivid in contrast. Snow had been falling for a long time now and he could not recall the last time he had seen the dense greenery of the mountains which loomed in the distance far away. There was a hazy quality to the air as the soft flakes landed upon the ground. It crunched beneath the boot. 

PTU has remixed the prolific Maelstrom on the record label RAAR run by himself and Louisahhh which is due for release this week. Heavy duty, fun focused club sounds with a dark twist.

PREMIERE: Maelstrom - Snow Falls (PTU Remix)[RAAR]

Invisible

PREMIERE: JQ - Gold [New Atlantis]

Whilst walking through the city there was an heir of discontent which hung heavily in the morning air. The people walked past, their faces cold and moody under the weight of work, stress and the burdens of everyday life. The disbelief habit was what allowed them to maintain haste and move from one day to the next, there was little here to live for in this deadbeat town. One day he dreamed that he might leave this space but it didn't appear that this might be anytime soon...

Jamal Moss is set to release a new EP on the Barcelona based record label Modern Obscure Music under the alias of The Sun God. He delivers experimental eclecticism in his signature style.

PREMIERE: The Sun God aka Jamal Moss - The Disbelief Habit [Modern Obscure Music]

There was a sweet sound which lingered in the pool hall, it was not the usual sound of Friday night violence and trouble from the boys but a bittersweet groove which poured through the speakers. One by one the players began to take note and decided to stop for a second. The green felt of each table was illuminated by the glow of a faint, dim light. It was as if they glowed a fluorescent green radiance set for the discotheque. The players moved into the centre of the room and listened carefully, it was time to move and dance. 

Sharif Laffrey knows the deal. A veteran producer with a penchant for house music of the highest quality, he returns once again with an extended cut of acid laden beats and breaks. All with a catchy sample.

Special Forces - SF-1  'Dance And Dance'

PREMIERE: Sharif Laffrey - And Dance [Special Forces]

The ancient city held a voice of reason, a narrative which was hard to defy. For many years there had been an enchanted presence which hung amidst the towering city walls, it was as if some form of brutal magic had enchanted the magnificent kingdom and now they were under the snare of a greater force. The Haiphong boogie was what it had been so aptly named, somewhat satirical and somewhat in order to allow for it not to intimidate day by day. Nobody was scared of a boogie... were they? 

Is that summer we here? Just around the corner you say? Hatchback certainly thinks so as he prepares to release a new LP on Lo Recordings as he brings in the sunny season.

Haiphong Boogie

PREMIERE: Hatchback - Haiphong Boogie [Lo Recordings]

The door creaked slightly as it softly cast a spiralling light out into the corridor. The opening finally allowed them all to see what had been lurking in the secret room for so many years. The den of intrigue was filled with towering shelves of books, tall lamps and the greenery of dense thick plants. It looked like a study of sorts but he knew that it was much more than that. It was a room in which wild things happened and in which wild beasts grew, even if they were simply ideas. 

Foreign Sequence is the alter ego of Tonotopy who releases on the newly launched French label Post Human Records. The first EP is a woozy blend of glitchy synths and acid sludge.

PREMIERE: Foreign Sequence - Opening [Post Human Rec]

Post Human France (@PosthumanRec) a new label from Bordeaux, launches with an EP composed by Foreign Sequence (@tonoforeign), the electronic alias of Tonotopy. The package rounded out with two remixes coming from Jaquarius and Mono-Enzyme 307 otherwise known by his alias Monotone known for his releases on English label Brokntoys.

In their own words, the inspiration for the label is "Humans dreaming of mechanical beings” and the aesthetics of this EP certainly follow suit with electro / idm early 90’s vibes using a P6, Sh-101, Tb-303, Tr-808 and a RS7000. Foreign Sequence digs into the techniques of the past to find the answers, showing his know-how and using it to express a multitude of emotions between nostalgia and optimism for the future.
