Pokoj : Theo invite Madeleine (04.07.25)

Blacklauren - the techno nom de guerre of Brooklyn’s Lesly Remy Jr. - works far beyond the reach of polite musical resolution. Enormous and pounding, these five tracks revel in what classically-minded listeners would consider dissonance - close intervals and flat fifths are expressed repetitively and hypnotically by whirling, searing synthesizers over undeniably kinetic drum programming. Harmonic ratios that less daring composers or improvisers would only ever use in the approach to resolution - or indeed would historically be considered demonic by early churches - are instead here the entire basis of these works. You are not permitted the safety of a return to a tonic chord, you are not permitted the boneheaded anticipation of a drop on the one, you are instead invited to savor the discomfort, everything progressing at a mechanical, unyielding techno sprint.

The result is a fascinating, disorienting space that ultimately works towards liberating the body. In the throbbing, unfamiliar harmonic churn of these body-rattling tracks something sublime bubbles up. Call it psychedelic, call it mesmerizing, call it mental, call it what you wish - but out amid the chug of the kick, as the unresolved melodies and clusters flutter unflinchingly, this freedom from resolution kicks you out of the airplane: it’s thrilling, it’s terrifying, it’s coming at you fast.

His work on these tracks can be described as devotional - with monastic dedication he makes certain to fire up Ableton and make some kind of sound every single day, hitting the YouTube tutorial dojo often or calling on fellow masters of dissonance Wata Igarashi or Linear System for expert guidance. He has also been a devotional fan of The Bunker New York, regularly attending our parties since 2010, appearing on several lineups and a pair of podcasts since then. Within the infinite universe of the DAW, he’s locked down a very particular set of instruments and presets, making great use of Reaktor’s realistic emulations of classic synthesizers. So his sonic signature is consistent, recognizable from track to track and also lovingly connected to the legacy of techno, plus the recordings are electric and alive. That’s the beautiful thing about going back to the same well again and again - you drink deeper with each dip.

Remy is also the founder of Nyabinghi Electronic Music, a fascinating label that arcwelds together the primal - like the pounding rhythms of Haitian Vodou, familiar to Blacklauren’s ears from his origins in Port-au-Prince - and the future - the various sonic technologies of the last fifty years, deployed precisely. Electrified into artistic ownership by the available time and inspiring swell of summer 2020’s Black Lives Matter actions, Remy makes explicit the label’s efforts to excavate the ceremonial aspects of techno and the futuristic summonings of African diasporic religious and cultural practices. In line with other tremendous futurists like the music and writings of DeForrest Brown, Jr. or the graffiti-as-starship designs of RAMM:ΣLL:ZΣΣ, Blacklauren’s work with the label and on this release sounds like sirens that are ever-approaching, doppler bending as they continually arrive - we’re here in the emergency but still we jubilate.

With "Vivarium", Vienna-based live duo Mitra present their debut release and their first contribution to IO Records. Known for their immersive performances and site-responsive sound explorations, Mitra translate the raw intensity and spatial awareness of their live practice into a studio recording for the very first time.

The seven-track EP unfolds as a carefully composed sonic ecosystem. Each piece functions as a distinct organism within a living structure, contributing to a sound world that feels both precise and unpredictable. Rooted in deep listening, low-end exploration, and rhythmic subtlety, Vivarium invites audiences into an environment that is in constant transformation.

Rather than relying on fixed arrangements or traditional song structures, the tracks evolve gradually. Textures shift, patterns emerge and dissolve, and moments of stillness meet waves of tension. While firmly grounded in experimental sound design, Vivarium also reveals a sense of physicality and movement. The duo’s background in their live act is present throughout, channeling the energy of their performances into compositions that retain their organic, tactile quality.

Vivarium is more than a debut. It is an invitation to enter Mitra’s sonic world. It is a space shaped by intuition, presence, and the fluid relationship between listener, sound, and environment. With this release, Mitra opens a new chapter in their artistic trajectory, offering a compelling glimpse into the evolving potential of their sound.

Cat No DN020 - Danza Nativa 2025.

Press Release:
Kyntral is a co-founder of the Argentinian label Danza Nativa and he serves up a deeply immersive trip here. 'Inner Depths' is liquid deep techno in the mould of Neel or Donato Dozzy. Percolating rhythms and dubby undercurrents subsume mind and body while deft little details place you underwater. 'Bloodstone' is a little more lumpy with gentle smattering of percussion of drums that bump. 'Ancient Apparition' is a spacious sound with wispy pads disappearing to infinity, glassy tinkles and undulating drums all getting you into a meditative state. The Patrick Russell Phantom remix is more warped and dark to add a nice counterpoint.

As we approach the end of summer, I am delighted to welcome Marius Bø to Deep Mind Music with an ethereal mix of celestial atmospheres to calm the soul ✧｡⋆.

Inspired by recent time spent in the mountains of Norway, the mix takes us high into the stratosphere, where whispers of cirrus clouds melt into the surrounding sky. Gentle blankets of emotive tones morph around us, as we are carried forth into the sacred chambers of the inner mind.

As the mix progresses, delicate arpeggiated spirals bloom across the imagination, and we are held in delicate suspension above the earth, floating, weightless, in quiet introspection. Thank you Marius for this beautiful mix, a space for deep reflection and blissful harmony within.

Years ago, Marius invited me to make an ambient and downtempo mix for @ute-rec’s mix series after listening to Deep Mind Music (https://soundcloud.com/ute-rec/ute-mix-series-49-sybil), so it is a great joy to present this transcendent mix from Marius himself on Deep Mind Music today 🤍💠🌙

Jor-G Tortosa – Lobularia [BATX003]
Lobularia
Fade to Detune
Sustance
Artwork by Somos Espuma
Mastering by Jorge Tortosa
Lobularia is the result of a creative process that took months of work in the studio. With an obsessive dedication to structure, detail, and sound design, Jor-G Tortosa has shaped a project where every synthesizer and every rhythmic layer was crafted until reaching its own identity.
The EP delivers three intense and direct cuts, moving between hypnotic atmospheres and raw textures, reflecting the most underground essence of Beat Addiction Trax. “Lobularia” opens with mysticism and power, “Fade to Detune” dives into darker and destabilizing ground, while “Sustance” closes with a visceral pulse built for the dance floor.
More than just a release, this work represents a cycle of exploration and personal search that establishes Jor-G Tortosa as one of the unmistakable voices within the Spanish underground techno scene.

Lobularia es el fruto de un proceso creativo que ha llevado meses de trabajo en el estudio. Con una dedicación obsesiva a la estructura, los detalles y el diseño sonoro, Jor-G Tortosa ha dado forma a un proyecto donde cada sintetizador y cada capa de ritmo han sido moldeados hasta alcanzar una identidad propia.
El EP despliega tres cortes intensos y directos, que viajan entre atmósferas hipnóticas y texturas crudas, reflejando la esencia más underground de Beat Addiction Trax. “Lobularia” abre con fuerza y misticismo, “Fade to Detune” se adentra en terrenos oscuros y desestabilizadores, mientras que “Sustance” cierra con un pulso visceral diseñado para la pista.
Más que un simple lanzamiento, este trabajo representa un ciclo de exploración y búsqueda personal que consolida a Jor-G Tortosa como una de las voces inconfundibles dentro del techno underground español
