Peachlyfe (they/them) is a hydra-sonic electronic musician that shook & seduced the Copenhagen fast-paced techno scene, claiming their seat along with Endurance and Fast Forward.
Peachlyfe’s productions and live-sets rebelliously weave across genres, trippy melodies cut with heavy slaps while whispering in your ear about the dismantlement of the ‘cistem’. Their EP “All Tits are Real, All Money is Fake, All Hail Satan” is an ode to that anarchic-playfulness, a marvellous feat in blending rave-rush joy and queer defiance.
In early 2022, Peachlyfe releases “Against All Reason” on marum’s and BLEID’s label suspension, a 4-chapter tale through soundscapes of glitch, trancey dunes and euphoria, a vision excitedly in synch with the wave of dancefloor reopenings. 

“Against All Reason 1” opens with a cryptic and urgent sound-manifesto that envelopes the ideas behind this release. Prompted by the central question of Susan Schupli’s documentary “Can the Sun Lie”, Peachlyfe investigates que question of “reason”, a driving-question that appears in previous releases but under different shapes - the cis-hetero patriarchy that dictates which bodies, tits or dixx, expressions or sounds are respectable (or not). Those who challenge such canons are deemed ugly, inferior, swamp monsters. And so what? Against all reason, we love the swamp!

As the tone is set, “Against All Reason 2” blows it all up. The existential question is answered through gallopant beats and progressively euphoric harmonies, nudging the body straight into a glorious dance, followed by “Dance the Day Away” that steps up the parade with their seductive pace overlaid with a mesh of sexy sounds soaked on high-tone energy and joy - undoubtedly the uplifting anthem for 2022 we all needed. 
The deep slow burn “Creature Feature” journeys through looming synths and distant vocal-echoes, eventually jolted with a punching heartbeats, creating an other-worldly trip. The perfect closure of this album that so harmoniously seems to thread conflicting feelings and sounds, making space to cheerfully embrace the unknown, against all reason.




Against All Reason

Who lies in the name of the sun? We do, we do, we do, we do! 
Who knows where the stars are supposed to be? We do, we do, we do, we do!
Would you bend the light so I seem bright? Of course, love, anything for you!
Who lies in the shade until noon? Not us, no way, we dance, all day!

How should the ass look? How should the tits feel? To where should the dixx point, if they ever point?

Your eyes will deceive you! Your ears will deceive you! Your tongue will deceive you!

Do not trust your eyes! Do not trust your eyes! Do not trust your eyes! If they get the chance, they’ll stab you in the front! There are countless examples. Just take a look!

Do not trust your memory! Do not trust your memory! Do not trust your memory! If the right moment comes, It’ll rip out your eyes! Good riddance anyway!

Smell the radio! Listen to the flowers! Taste the music! Dance the day away

Imitate yourself! Imitate others! Imitate an image! It’ll be far more trustworthy than whatever they’re showing through your local window!

Who lies in the name of the sun? We do, we do, we do, we do! 
Who knows where the stars are supposed to be? We do, we do, we do, we do!
Would you bend the light so I seem bright? Of course, love, anything for you!
Who lies in the shade until noon? Not us, no way, we dance, all day!

PM+ strides into 2024 with the invigorating energy only a debutant producer can bring, as we proudly present the first public offering from @mrterrycotta We’ve been party to the steady progression of Cotta’s productions for some time now, and with the arrival of ‘She’s Eclectic’ and ‘Running’ we knew the time was right to drop his sound on the unsuspecting dancefloor. 

There’s a raw vibe to these tracks which embodies the essence of a techno jam, revealing in gnarly overtones driven by deadly, effective arrangements. The curveball moves, like the outré drop-out in ‘She’s Eclectic’ or the twisted vocal sample in ‘Running’, are the signature of an artist following their own instincts with nothing to lose. That’s precisely why we’re so drawn to these cuts. 

The rhythm sections won’t let you down, while the synth work and sound design has more than enough spiciness to dance on your tongue and warm your guts. What else do you want from a pair of club tracks?

Cliché (Extra Material)

Cliché (Initial Mix)

SAL (Sonic Abundance & Longevity) is a project dedicated to celebrating and showcasing Pan-Asian arts, music, and culture. Founded in Berlin in 2024, it began as an idea for an annual compilation series to bring together artists we admire from across the globe. Since then, it has quickly expanded into organising events both in Berlin and internationally. 

The theme for the compilation this year is centered around cultural exchange: immersion, dialogue, connection, and curiosity. We aim to help bridge the gap between communities from Asia to Europe and the US; celebrating our diversity and highlighting the confluence of influences shaping our lives. This edition were inviting artists we love across the globe as a vehicle for that cultural exchange.

Peder Mannerfelt splits the difference between playful immediacy and daring experimentation. You’re as likely to find him premiering a live show at Berlin’s Atonal festival as pulling apart fabled techno meccas from Berghain to Fabric with synapse-frying precision. One minute he’s being asked to remix Björk, and the next he’s dropping EPs of non-conformist techno for Karenn’s Voam label. 

As a prolific collaborator throughout his career, Mannerfelt has veered from the orchestral tension of Roll The Dice (with Malcolm Pardon) to the anything-goes maximalism of Aasthma (with Pär Grindvik). As a producer, he’s worked on every one of Fever Ray’s acclaimed albums and live shows, as well as projects from alt music heavyweights such as Smerz, Blonde Redhead and Glasser. His Peder Mannerfelt Produktions label has become another outlet for his singular approach, presenting his work alongside similarly experimental operators like Sissel Wincent, Machine Woman, Klara Lewis and Hodge. 

More recently, his PM+ series celebrates the immediacy of club-focused tracks, and Mannerfelt thrives on the energy and community of contemporary club music. What makes him different is his response to that energy, as he pushes the music’s possibilities in wild, unpredictable directions.
