Modern Collapse - Stolen Whispers In The Club

@renslink
It is time to let go of your fear and doubts. You must learn to embrace the darkness of your soul, for it is a light beacon of hope for humanity. Your soul wants to show itself in its truest form, strength, perseverance, courage and determination of spirit. In this lifetime your soul needs to cleanse and open its feelings for katharsis.

With the double compilation “Infinite Summer: Ekstase & Fantasi”, katharsis celebrates the return of raves and concerts to society after a long period of pandemic shutdown. A magical summer has passed filled with an incredible pallet of emotional material, ready to be expressed. Therefore, we encouraged a collection of artists we adore to channel their imagination of the greatest way to conclude an endless summer night into a piece of music.

This resulted in a grand assemblage of harmonious manifestations, naturally splitting into two divisions with opposing focuses. On the first part of the duology “Ekstase” coming out on September 20th, we are presented with fourteen tracks for the dancefloor in an array of different styles, ranging everywhere from energetic morning vibes on the junglish opener “Origin, Gate's Dawn” by Yem Gel to hardcore sensations on Mang’s trap-infused roller “Based Halo”.

Infinite Summer: Ekstase

Just Won't Do

premiere: Renslink - Just Won't Do [Infinite Summer: Ekstase]

A promising track of EP2, plays around with a catchy and naive vocal phrase, insisting that ‘Sometimes It’s Hard’. The statement, sung by a soft but mechanical female voice, is underlined by a glitchy and relentless breakbeat layered with visceral subs. The track’s weltschmerz disposition is equally seductive and destructive, which makes ‘Sometimes It’s Hard’ an unusual tune that will satisfy both seasoned ravers and a wider festival crowd.

EP2’s mesmerising cover art, a piece created for affected called ‘Crinoid Scanner’, was made by local 3D artist Caroline Vang. The work is inspired by the alien yet familiar look of crinoid fossils. Finding her inspiration in the most alien and quirky parts of nature, Vang specializes in an experimental and surreal play of texture and shape, to challenge the line between fiction and hyper-reality.

Sometimes It's Hard is mastered by SUGAR aka. Nikolaj Jakobsen in Copenhagen.

Renslink - !85 EP
Label: Infinite Machine
CAT#: IM103
Format: Digital
Release: May 26th, 2023
Mastered by Fausto Mercier
Artwork by Luis Tomita

UK producer Renslink calls IM103 his first effort focused on the dancefloor, but it belies a lifetime steeped in it. This is prime material for the most advanced of DJs.

The first cut, Static, blends heavy, droning atmospheric sound design with the half-time template of dubstep, complete with jungle vocals. Before reaching the first half, however, it goes into a healthy techno gallop, making the track a perfect set opener if drama is your thing.

From that we go into the three-on-two mindbend of In My Mind, full of beautiful rhythmic trickery and rave culture nods in the sampled female vocals.

Cenotaph feels like a Pinch & Mumdance dub that they kept for themselves around the Control/Strobelight era, all rolling, persistent kick, dubbed-out dready vocals and dystopian hoover.

In Touching The Void we find a moment of drama and relative tenderness, as cinematic strings and choir soar over a busy rolling breakbeat. Occasionally, the proceedings are punctuated by a reese bass and bleeps fill that keep it fresh (an you on your toes).

Closer Silence is a mutant dembow wobbler with alien vocals by Nivalis, like dancehall for after the nuclear apocalypse, when we’ll have all the extra limbs we’ll need to dance to music like this.

Taken from SBKT058: Nahash - A Snake In Your House
Release date: 21st June 2023

Nahash returns to SVBKVLT with ‘A Snake In Your House’, a 4-track club EP, including collaborations with XXLAB’s Elise Massoni and dOP’s JAW, and packaged with two deadly remixes from Tim Reaper and Brodinski.

‘’ A snake came into your house, he said it was just to talk. A snake always has an agenda, it’s never just to talk. He crawled around and criticized your art and your lifestyle. The snake brought an apple pie and didn’t share any. He talked of the days in Eden, the time of plenty. He talked of his time in the court of the emperor Davide IX. He shed his skin and overstayed his welcome. He came to steal your land and chase away your friends and family. When you invite a snake in your house keep a broom close, he might never leave’’

We have some lacerating, avant-club abstraction as @corinmusic returns to Lee Gamble’s @uiqmusic label.

Back on UIQ following 2021’s 'Enantiodromia' release. Where that explored ideas of machine learning, specifically memory retention in AI, ‘Lux Aeterna’ imagines sound as sentient across a suite of tracks indebted to sci-fi soundtracks and baroque-era beauty. It’s a fierce and forward investigation into texture through the prism of granular synthesis and club-focused concerns. 

Our premiere, ‘extasis’, finds the multidisciplinary artist marrying spectral trance and industrial maelstrom to exhilarating effect.

'Lux Aeterna' is out July 14th on UIQ.
