Vertige II is the second compilation to be released on Abîme, gathering tracks from ten artists to explore the Vertige concept with a wider spectrum of intents.  

It features contributions from musicians all around the globe, each of them delivering an interpretation of this ambivalent sensation that could be equally seen as a positive or negative feeling if taken in its plurality of meanings.

Ranging from GIL’ dizzying textures in ‘Storm Petrel’ to the sweetness of Fauness’ guitars in ‘Am I ready’, Vertige II finds its coherence when seen as a progression, a back and forth between fear and love, with each track responding to the previous one by being its deforming mirror.

Vertige II puts the emphasis on vocal tracks, but again doesn’t limit itself to a one-sided approach, and that’s how Lil Asaf’s harsh Jordanian rap can be found coexisting with Flagalova’ anthemic pop and Ptwiggs’ shoegaze ‘Forever is not enough’. 

As the successor of our first compilation, this record can be seen as both a continuation and a rupture in comparison with it. The delicate sound palette of the original opus has exploded and expanded into an ecletic collection of pieces, sometimes frightening and overwhelming, and sometimes soothing and reassuring, as is the Vertige.

Ytem - Eco

Pneumatic proudly presents 'Heaven' a project by https://soundcloud.com/grasps.

Internet obsession, rave-nostalgia & intense anxiety surrounding death. A sense of purpose was dwindling from euphoric moments. Extended eye contact till you can feel it in your stomach, to be everlasting, to look up to the sky & say: “This feels Like Heaven”.

Grasps_ develops their signature sound, using Heaven as an ode to the meaningful connections forged through their work. The Eora (Sydney) based artist unpacks and reflects on the experiences of urban dread and trepidation, intimacy and desolation, overtly depicted through a lens of melancholia.

music lovers anonymous & ecovoron - retracing steps [MK PREMIERE]

@simonk_music

The winds are blowing. Bringing fragments of phrases, half-faded memories.
Tune in to the frequency — B Station is calling. Waves of new hope and tender recollections move through the soft melodies and lingering reverberations.
With gentle distortion and melodic drift, the artists trace moments suspended in time: the warmth of a voice, the ghost of a phrase, the glow of distant hope. Echoes of the past, and dreams of a distant future.

The compilation is available for purchase via Nina Protocol and Bandcamp.
DSP release arrives on September 4.
