Thinkin' Freely

Taken from HDB123 DJ Lag and Okzharp - Stream Rooms EP 
Released on 19/07/2019 but ready to buy now here - https://fanlink.to/SteamroomsEP

This track is taken from the collaboration by Durban gqom originator DJ Lag and London based Hyperdub mainstay  Okzharp, of Okzharp and Manthe Ribane. 

Having initially linked up online back in 2012,  DJ Lag and Okzharp connected in different places while touring, putting the wheels in motion for the Steam Rooms collaboration EP. 
The EP’s title originates from the Durban nickname for local clubs, “they used to refer to clubs as steam rooms, a lot of the early gqom-style  music was  played in these  places, there were quite a few tracks named after them. The name for the EP is a tribute to that.”

GIL - Infolding 
Cat. Nr: DN015
Format: Digital
Release Date: 12 July 2019
Buy: https://bit.ly/2ERpTgG

GIL’s latest record Infolding is released by Danse Noire, his second release on the label since Orchids and Wasps. Aptly named, it traces an inward fold, both of the artist's leanings and the listener's experience. The record is reflective, probing, and supple; its arrangements a development of the musical language explored in his previous release.

Infolding engages both with composition and non-determinism, its playfulness skipping across dramatic deluge and expansive gestures to gently paced segments, a game of hide and seek. GIL displays once again his interest in movement as well as an understanding of the fine aspects which determine familiarity and structure; time as rhythm, embodiment as genre, precognition and expectation – the agents of notional listening get questioned gently and persistently. The result is music which will joyfully betray an ear's expectation, replacing it with a twist or sudden space. The record dances on an unstable surface, dipping where it should rise, halting where it could pound, uttering affecting melodies, gracefully yet laboriously; GIL's is an introspective, churning, bone rattling palette.

Hardly ever offering a moment of rest, he creates environments in which something is perpetually pulling, stretching, towards-tending. Laden with cartwheeling themes and hooks which appear and disappear in different shades, the record houses overarching motifs which appear and scatter over the span of several tracks. This dizzying distribution makes for an in-folded listening, in which the artist considers the record's body as outside of single frameworks, its premises and planting delayed or waylaid by new, unexpected considerations.

The distinct sense of motion in the record is the artist making use of his experience as a live musician, and is further developed due to his aphantasiac condition. An inability to visualize both imagery and sound in his mind spurs GIL into sensing arrangements by physical preemption and resonance, reactively. Unsurprisingly then, Infolding takes shape as a blindfolded, visceral dance.

GIL - Compact Renewal

"I need help, and I am so scared of people thinking I'm crazy that I suffer alone. I remember after I was abducted that I was waiting until they could 'Transport me back', sounds crazy but I recall it like yesterday. The implant is in my head. Sometimes it buzzes non stop. Or feels like someone is tuning a radio in my head. I'm alone and don't know where to start but I know I want them out. I am 100 percent pis it I've that it's there. I know I probably won't hear back because just writting this makes me sound crazy. I live in Canada my phone number is (281) 783 9555 Please help me if I get some support I would go and get x-rays to prove this"

Ondo Fudd — Eyes Glide Through The Oxide

Meandering between the back streets of nowhere there was little signposting which might act as a guide for escape. He had been trying for as long as he could remember to leave this town but it always found a way of pulling him back in when he least expected it. Out here in the midst of the woodand there was little but for the falling snow and the little huts which huddled together beneath dense green trees. This was his village, where he was born and where he would die. Only in snow it seemed he would live. 

La Fe is a collaboration between Daniel Rincon of Ambien Baby/ NAP and Michael Red of Souns. Together they have collaborated to produce an EP with dub leaning tendencies. Weirdo electronics and hazy soundscapes weave atop reggaeton percussion and the rumble of drums.
