Modern Life EP

HIFI/LOFILES PODCAST #1 By Evan Michael

READ > https://inverted-audio.com/premiere-tile-plazas-healing-pond 

100% Silk is celebrating its 15th anniversary with the upcoming compilation Late Shift Silk. Featuring a slate of new and familiar names, the California label commemorates a decade and a half of sounds that range from chill room dub, pool party house, and rooftop techno.

“Healing Pond” is an oasis lying just beyond the horizon. With dreamy keys and percussion percolating at a gentle simmer, Tile Plazas deliver an intoxicating gem that puts the listener in a mood of peak summer heat waves, where scorching concrete sidewalks mingle with gently swaying palm trees.

Some records are answers to questions no one asked out loud. 

"Where Is Acid Eric" EP  weave Goa’s swirling trance lines with broken rhythms, analog squelches, and post-industrial textures. The acid lines are sharp, but never cliché — more mantra than gimmick. Voices float in and out like half-remembered chants. Basslines slide, hypnotize, and then vanish in a cloud of smoke. 

One foot in the dust, one foot in the cosmos. The answer isn’t important. The trip is.

NEW HIT: Cornelius Doctor & Tushen Raï - Sven Goes To Notting Hill (Once) [HARD FIST records]

Le Carousel - Echo Spiegel EP

Le Carousel presents PKR044  The second in a new series of remixes under the Le Carousel banner.

Following the extended version of We’re All Gonna Hurt — alongside a remix from Sean Johnston (Hardway Bros / A Love From Outer Space) — PKR044 continues the journey with a brand-new, previously unreleased Le Carousel original.

This track pushes deeper into psychedelic territory — a warped take on the dancefloor formula that channels German electronic influences from Kraftwerk to NEU!, while keeping one foot firmly in the disco.

The star of the show! Curses steps in for the main remix duties, turning up the heat with a driving version that lifts the tempo and energy, but also keeping the trippy feel of the original. For his second remix we get a deep, slung-back roller made for those darker, low-ceiling moments. An incredible pair of remixes, we are blessed! 

Phil Kieran closes the release with his own re-imagining — a bleached-out, blissed-up excursion that strips back the beats in favour of lush synth textures and hypnotic movement. It’s a beautiful, sophisticated counterpoint to the originals.

Lb Honne is a Zürich, Switzerland based producer whose work bridges warm ambient textures, deep house pulses and introspective textures into his unique style. 

Here he joins the roster of Smallville Records, where his forthcoming Brücke EP, arriving December 2025, is set to further his evolution offering tracks that balance emotional depth, dancefloor prowess, and that signature blend of evocative, heartfelt production style. 

Including a full Cover Artwork by Stefan Marx as always.

PREMIERE: Lb Honne - Deeper  [SMALLVILLE71]

There’s a particular alchemy that happens when a band and producer find themselves on the same wavelength – not through careful planning, but through the natural convergence of shared musical worlds. Jakarta’s Strange Fruit and electronic artist Jonathan Kusuma have arrived at exactly that point with the Hypnodubmix of “Iridescent,” the first glimpse of the band’s forthcoming Drips EP.

Strange Fruit has always inhabited dual territories. While their shoegaze-leaning live sound draws from dreamy, guitar-driven atmospheres, members Baldi Calvianca and Irza Aryadiaz have deep roots in electronic music – producing, DJing, and moving through the same underground circuits as Kusuma himself. This isn’t a band reaching outside of their comfort zone for a remix; it’s a collaboration between kindred spirits who’ve been orbiting the same musical universe all along.

With releases on Cocktail d’Amore, Correspondant, and Minh, Kusuma strips “Iridescent” back to its essence and rebuilds it as something altogether more hypnotic. Pulsing basslines, dub-driven rhythms, and spectral traces of the vocals drifting through the haze. It’s patient, immersive, and designed for those late-night moments when the dancefloor becomes a meditation.

With three more remixes still to come ahead of the EP’s 2026 release via Gentle Tuesday Recordings, Strange Fruit are charting a new path…

Högt I Tak - Into The Void

As 2025 comes to a close, we’re looking back on the year and dreaming ahead. Reflecting on the past, one memory still makes us smile — and without it, this podcast episode might not even exist.

Years ago, at a house party thrown by one of our label founders, a sudden knock on the door sparked the usual fear of a noise complaint in the early morning hours. But this is Berlin after all. Instead of the police, a few friendly neighbors stood outside, loving the music and asking to join the dance. One of them was Scoopsi, who now helps us wrap up this year’s podcast season in style.

Shaped by a classically trained upbringing in Montréal, Scoopsi has been orbiting music since childhood. Now six years in Berlin, she channels that lifelong pull into refined, groove-forward sets—where stripped-back House and Techno meet subtle flashes of jazz, hip-hop, and funk.

A resident of Zapped Records, she’s graced iconic rooms like Hoppetosse, Kater, Sisyphos, and Watergate, as well as festivals from 3000Grad to Mit Dir. Whether curating intimate gatherings or steering late-night dance floors across continents from Asia to North America, and beyond; Scoopsi brings an effortless elegance and a deep, rolling swing that keeps the crowd right where she wants them—floating with love.

We say thank you to our friend Scoopsi for this wonderful podcast and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Though most libraries insist on absolute silence so that the folks inside can focus on reading their John Grisham novels or whatever other books they read to excape from the dreariness of their daily lives, the West Norwood Cassette Library is always open to all sorts of moises and actively encourages them. That's probably because it's a human being as opposed to a physical building - you're not very likely to find several generations of people chilling out inside him, hopefully.

To celebrate the fifth birthday of his eponymous label, there's a very special 5th Anniversary EP on offer to help kick the celebrations into full swing. Settle yourself in for your first taste of 'Up Periscope' and get yourself excited for the incoming mountains of party poppers, balloons and all the jelly and ice cream you could ever hope for...

PREMIERE: West Norwood Cassette Library - Up Periscope

Some dark acid drops from the New World Disorder EP, available in December 2011 on vinyl 12".

Minimum Syndicat - Control (MS06)

Eclectic Californian DJ and producer Urulu lines up a stacked release on Kalahari Oyster Cult which comes complete with a tripped out cosmic remix by Montréal's Ex-Terrestrial.

While Urulu's explored a variety of styles throughout his career, his latest work flips rhythm on its head with diverse variations, raw textures and a psychedelic motif. Adding Ex-Terrestrial into the mix 'Precinct 9' proved to round out this stellar EP, as his bubbly and captivating rendition delivers an infectious cut for the dancefloor.

Urulu's 'Foreign Depths' EP is set for release in October.
