ELECTRONIC // OCTOBER 2021

Vilnius based Moisk turns to the new Belgian imprint ‘Pleasure Express’. Their Melanchonic Raver EP combines deep tribal rhythms with out-of-this world voices and soundscapes. Acidic goodness elegantly draped over slowed down breakbeat patterns and percussions. Dusseldörf based AKI AKI did his magic on the remix. Let’s take a ride on the Pleasure Express...

6 melodious pieces applauded by audiences across the country! This music embodies the nonsense of life during crucial times humanity is undergoing. We believe that digestion plays an highly important role in the well being of earthlings and balance; the immortality of sound within the cosmos of abnormal ideas and thoughts. 

While recording these songs, we light-hearted artists were able to combine our digested voices with the exact sentiments depicted in humankind's pivotal moments of loneliness. We hereby create a soothing inner feeling in our listeners. 

This album says more than can be mentioned, we have no doubt that this record will do its duty in fulfilling its purpose in your mind.

Track: The SIlk Road

Format: 12" Vinyl, Digital EP
Release date: 01/10/21
Purchase: https://biglink.to/HIGH001

Introducing Higher Hopes, a brand-new label from DC Salas.
A deeply personal project for the Biologic Records co-boss, Higher Hopes is inspired by the deep immersive, unconventional and left-leaning underground music he loves to play in clubs.
Music like Krokakai’s. An emergent Glaswegian producer with a penchant for hardware – largely using an MPC2000XL, SH09, MS20 Mini, TT-303, Roland Alpha Juno and other trusted tools – he’s already turned heads on labels such as Invisible Inc and PowerStation Records. Right here he lays down the label’s parameters with four unique, far-reaching escapades.
Our pick here falls on ‘The Silk Road’ which picks up the eastern trail and sweeps us deep into the desert on a flying acid carpet.
Music to dance to, music to dream to, music for brighter times. Higher Hopes is vinyl-focused and distributed by Brussels record store Crevette Records. More transmissions will follow very soon.

After a first volume released in September 2020 on Hard Fist, Argentinian Balam comes with “Chants of Pachamama (Part. 2)”, including a remix by Matias Aguayo.

This time Balam focuses on the experience around the ritual of magic plants that is practiced in the deep South-American rainforest. By mixing modular synth, stromping basslines, haunting vocals and real played percussions produced in his studio “Submarea” in Buenos Aires, he recreates a psychedelic trip from beginning to end.

The sun flooded through the open curtains, waking him prematurely. She wasn't there again, had already left for some other important commitment or unexplainable appointment. If pressed, he struggled to define their relationship; he'd put too much time into deciphering it that now he preferred to accept it for what it was. Not that he was any closer to understanding that either...

Almost a year ago Moisk, a duo made up of Pletnev aka Ponty Mython and Fourmï Rouz, released their debut foray on Dutch label I Lost My Poncho In Istanbul. Now they’re returning for another excursion, this time inviting you to take a ride on the Pleasure Express, a fresh new imprint springing up from Belgium. Titled 'Melancholic Raver', the EP once again showcases the pair's love of hypnotic rhythms and breakbeat patterns, matching these with acid lines and otherworldly atmospheres.

12.11.2021 - Official Release

I dream of you so quietly. Your likeness is not visible, the wind obscures your silhouette. You create spirals and don't know why. A burning star whirling in an orbit of its own. Each today is yesterday's tomorrow, which is now. And now is all I have, in my dream, so quietly… Four new tracks on RIO, catalogue number 006. Conducted, dreamed, in- and exhaled by @freybenedikt and @tohinc , featuring cosmic whisper and aerospace vocoder poetry by Lisa Toh, Tyler Pope, Lukas Diller and Niklas Wandt. Tripping music, dancing with organic Reprazent-break-infinity, saxophone melodies, Neu-Kraut-transcendence, nervous drones, gloomy bass figures, minimal pop and manic computer malfunctioning tones. All wrapped in a warm void of Melancholie, touching the eternal with murky gloves. Pointillist tunes, thoughtfully peculiar, seriously serious. Now is all they need. Now is all they want. Now I dream of you so quietly.

For RE:WARM 004 we head to South Africa to welcome the amazing band, The Hurricanes to the label.

The Hurricanes comprised of Donald Mbowane, Albinus Sobekwa, Elias Sekete and Philip Marokoane. However over the years there were a number of variations in the band. They released a number of singles and EP’s throughout the 1970’s on RPM and Buffalo but they finally released their greatest hits in 1978 on Buffalo.

It’s from the greatest hits which was produced by Thomas J. Masingi that we have selected three wonderful tracks that show off the band’s phenomenal talent. The hugely sought after track “Sea Waves” will take over the A side with “Brother” and “She’s Got To Know It Well” on the flip.
