Where stars drench the sky in hues of infinity, amidst the chaotic waves of supernovas, Sleem Gleam emerges from the abyss to debut a fusion of electronic rhythms and reverberated riffs that crash against the shores of reality.

Riding on a hot acid groove and descending into an electric whirlpool, “Lava Barrels at High Tide” is a stripped-back oceanside bop that epitomizes the swell. Up next, “Totally Pitted” hits maximum wetness with an iconic bass line and blazing flanged-out hats guaranteed to jostle a noggin.

On the flip side, the upbeat electro jam “Cosmic Rip Current” presents a hazard to beach-goers in the form of a thick and psychedelic stellar blip-swirl. Lobotomy Party sends it home at high speed with twacked-out vocal samples and surreal pulsating bass.

Sleem Gleam is the new surf-inspired alias of Minneapolis-based Kajunga co-founder Ry Johnson, aka Ryote. He has been making and releasing electronic music since 2007 and DJing since 2011.

In The Wake of Wolves

FaltyDL - Minds Protection

UK-based producer and engineer of emotive, off-world soundscapes, Slolek, returns to Of Paradise with Object Desire, a 4-track collection of saturated electronica, experimental bass, and fractured jungle.

A cinematically tinged journey across arid landscapes and through cavernous rooms, Object Desire is a desert-kissed masterpiece of expertly harvested sounds, an incredibly majestic and thought-provoking journey with a darkly ambient core.

Following up 'Selected Works of Anthony Braxton' EP from multi-instrumentalist sextet Ferry Good Company, Danish imprint Don't Look Back prepare to release '2x2x2' EP from Barcelona-born now Copenhagen-based composer Xavier Bonfill...Our pick is '2x2 (bell plate version)' thanks to its entrancing sound bath enclosed by mirroring steel sheets. As crystal quartz symphonies are broadcasted from underworld cave systems, Marta Soggetti and Lorenzo Colombo sculpt an ambient soundscape filled with FX-soaked bell plate polyphony culminating in a whirlwind of analogue noise spirals.

Xavier Bonfill - 2x2x2 (bell plate version) [Don't Look Back]

It had seemed as if it might never come, the clouds had been absent from this part of town for ever so long and what had once been lush, dense and green had shrunk and dried beyond any sort of recognition. The summer had been brutal, long and brutal.

They had dreamed that one day the heavens might descend once again to save them all from the bitter heat which had become their tormentor.

Now, as darkness fell across the land, they watched and waited with eager anticipation for the sweet moment of release.

It was raining once again…

Milan-based record label 51 Beats line up the debut extended-player from Italian multi-instrumentalist Davide Barucca aka _Imnot__here...Today, we are pleased to premiere ‘Water‘. During the opening scene, the track starts with a contemplative soundscape enhanced by secluded river flows, soon accompanied by a commotion of modular synths, proclaiming a common desire for a heaven-like planet filled with abundant life.

Love Dup

Self help, the ultimate guide to success. How many times have you read that right? People, seem to continue to deliver all sorts of far fetched theories about how to get your life together and succeed. Nobody actually knows right? Do your own thing, do the damn dance, then you might just succeed.
Ponty Mython has delivered a six track release for Dirt Crew Recordings following his recent contributions to Delusions of Grandeur and Swedish Brandy.
