A9. Never Melodic [Sonic Youth Cover Demo Version]

Coming from a background of drumming in various punk bands, Severin Black under the moniker Nape has for the last few years been forcing rhythms into their most self-deprecating fissures. With four EPs and a 7" out on labels run by the likes of Strahinja Arbutina, Spiderwrap and DJ Valentimes, his next release will be a stripped back modular exercise on Nick Klein's Psychic Liberation imprint later this year.

This hour-long contribution to us is an attempt to represent Severin's simultaneous anxiety and euphoria experienced whilst making it from his living room in Peckham, London. It contains tracks by Loose-y Crunché, Beau Wanzer, Ekaterina Bazhenova-Yamasaki, Isabella, Robert Wyatt and Acidic Male among others, as well as an unreleased Nape track not yet given a home.

BL Radio EP 84: KOSMIK

(@xenianogravity) Xenia Nanou regularly presents her own show on Athens Movement Radio. In addition, the native Greek is currently revitalizing the techno scene of Vienna with her music. While Polyxena was the lover of Achill, she devotes a lot of time and passion to acid, electro and breakbeat as Polyxene. With the experience of a sound engineer she also has the skills to prod the dancefloors with her style. We are very happy to have her on Hypress. It's almost like we were just waiting for her to bring the trademark sound of our label together in one mix. Acid meets Leftfield. Bass meets techno.

#22 - POLYXENE - Hypress Mix

Show recorded on 06-01-2022 at The Lot Radio

@ The Lot Radio NYC

The hero of our today's program is Violet Poison. He started djing in 1994 but his first gig ever was in 2000. Lately, he started producing a kind of hypnotic techno music under the “Obtane” pseudonym. But he came back to his roots in 2014. He grew up with a wide range of music: synth-pop, Italo and bands like Cocteau Twins. The pseudonyms he uses to make music reflect these genres.   

This mix is exclusively made of seminal proto-industrial and experimental minimal music from obscure 80’s/1990-1991 tapes.

1. Which artists has influenced you the most? 
Liaisons Dangereuses and Trisomie 21 mostly, but I Iove anything that came out from the 80's. Lately I also have been inspired by the International Deejay Gigolos label, artists such Terence Fixmer and The Hacker.

2. What new projects/releases with your participation are expected in the near future? 
I got a few collaborations that will come out in the near future, plus the Diana Berti's "The Hand That Seeds Death Part II and III" and new releases on my own label Veleno Viola.

3. Which artists/labels is more relevant to you now? 
There's so many good stuff around now. About my favorite labels, I would say Dark Entries, Mannequin Records, Minimal Wave, Frigio Records, She Lost Kontrol, Italomoderni  and more like that.

4. What inspires you now to create music? 
Lately the 80's Japanese synth-pop imagery, apart my deep passion for steampunk/sci-fi/erotic/horror movies from the 80's/early 90's.

5. If it's not a secret, what set-up do you use when creating music?

My setup is still a bit hybrid (hardware synths and some plugins) but recently I started to work hardware-only and the result, in terms of audio quality, it's much more impressive. Basically the synths I use are the Ensoniq ESQ-1, MFB Dominion 1, Yamaha DX7, Korg Poly 800, Octatrack MK1 and some more.

Strange But Dance Music #82: Violet Poison

From a distance
I watch you come for me
Show no resistance
You act so persistently

In this darkest night
With eyes half-closed
Won't put up a fight
To what you proposed

Localize my heart

My feelings hurt
My body aches
Won't retrovert
Won't use no brakes

Come and get me now
Don't let it slip
Everything I allow
Follow your leadership

Localize my heart
