NOOD5 features contributions from six friends of the Noods family, consisting of Berlin based techno iconoclast Ossia, shadowy Bristol producer fresh from a highly acclaimed EP on Berceuse Heroique, Pessimist, Timedance affiliate Cleyra, Milanese sound experimentalist Katatonic Silentio, Rio underground lynchpin and RBMA graduate Valesuchi and a collaboration from Dekmantel’s Epsilove and the elusive Ployer Fower.

The record is a confident assertion of the station’s sonic ethos; filled with tense, dread-laden soundscapes that foreground the percussion and sub bass. Reverbs and delays are utilised in the true dub tradition, wringing out unconventional grooves from the negative space between the drums: it’s music for the head and the body.

Originally intended to be released on our fifth birthday hence the name, fuck it — the pandemic slowed much down so have it on our sixth birthday instead. 

Pre-order on the buy link above to be released in full 15th October.

London-based musician @ikavapii is up next on @EarlyReflex with 'EPOS Digitale', a three-track EP that builds on the sonic concepts introduced to us throughout 2020's two-part album 'Post Capitalist Hyperwars', released through Pii's co-founded label Too Much Information.

Ikävä Pii - the end of the end of History [Early Reflex]

AM: Let’s start with your album! Had such a whirl listening to it, how long was it in the making? What was the the concept behind it & what does your set up look like?

G: Thank you for the kind words! The album was around a 2-year project in total from the inception of the concept to finally being put through production ready for release. The concept originated from the beginnings of a personal spiritual journey that started 2 years prior to when I first started writing it, where I began to delve into philosophy from various periods of time, mostly being the Hellenistic period of Ancient Greek Philosophy, Buddhism and 1920’s Existential Philosophy to name the most predominant things I explored, along with the incredible world of psychology. Through making attempts to understand myself I began to make a connection with something greater than me – a kind of unifying bond that brings all of us and everything together as one, which the album title ‘Pulchra Es Elementis’ alludes to, translating roughly to ‘Elements Are Beautiful’ in Latin, where the elements are essentially what makes us who we are and everything else around us. The general mood of the album is quite uplifting, almost melancholic, which I think reflects the way life is most of the time; an underlying pessimistic, realistic perspective that I have learnt has allowed me to truly understand how beautiful the world can really be. We all experience some form of suffering, and I think that this is an important thing to consider about the human race; we are all bound together by this fact I think, and in a way I feel a powerful beauty around this idea that enriches my experience with the world. The setup during the production of the album was incredibly simple – an Akai MIDI Keyboard, monitors, and interface, my ancient Macbook Pro and Ableton Live 9. A lot of the production techniques I used on the album were sample-heavy, but I did use a specific set of VSTs, including Massive and Zebralette.

AM: Tell us a little about the mix, how and where did you record it? Did ya enjoy it? 

I recorded the mix at home in my studio (my bedroom) using a MIDI Mixer given to me by some friends (Thanks Neil and Jodie!) using Traktor on a sunny afternoon. I absolutely love recording mixes and taking the listener on a journey so the experience was great! When I record mixes I try to make each one different to the last, and this mix was centred around the more slower tracks on the LP, which are all featured throughout. I am a huge fan of slower tempos between 90 and 120 BPM for their more hypnotic, flowing nature and so I drew for a selection of tracks that followed suit with this energy, as the tracks off the album are made to capture this same force. There are a mix of older and newer tracks inside and it is cool to hear how different periods of music history from the last 10 years meld together so brilliantly! It is chuggy, meditative, warped and full of dense low end.


AM: We’re big fans of your label NHS too, it’s quite varied and all the releases are great. Was there a specific idea with it to start with?

Thank you! I had initially wanted to start a label when I still lived in Australia and cycled through a range of idea that didn’t stick. Nostro Hood System finally came to be when I considered my long-term love for Science Fiction and Fantasy. I imagined what it would be like to receive an audio artefact from an alternate galaxy; what would that music sound like? By this time I was deeply interested in the left-field realm of electronic music and it seemed fitting to take NHS down the thematic route. So Nostro Hood System is essentially the name of the alternate system much like our Solar System that occupies the universe and the records are the sounds that come from it. The team that interprets the sound files are Xenologists on earth who receive and transmit the audio into comprehensible sounds that our ears can comprehend.

SHE Spells Doom up next for the pod! 
They've served up an hour of rhythmic and warped club bits, a real power hour this one. Tis a groover n will make ya yearn for the club. 
Big honour to welcome SSD to the pod, we're big fans :) 
We also caught up with him for a lil chat, read below >

AM: Heyo! What have you been up to recently? 

Hey! Mostly been working on music, recording mixes and spending time with family.

AM: We loved your EP for All Centre this year so much! Could you tell us a bit about the inspiration for it and the set up for it? 

Thank you - Super kind of you! For the EP, I didn’t really set out with a particular thing in mind. I guess late nights watching movies is the common thread - Rudnick was inspired by and named after a villain from the movie, Heavy Metal (1981) and Earthly Pleasures was inspired by the movie, Hellraiser (1987). Jet Black was me trying to make a song that sounded like falling into void and enjoying every minute of it. LOL. Setup wise, Love to All Centre who reached out to me and asked if I’d be down to do an EP for the label after featuring on their 2nd Anniversary compilation. Enjoyed working with them the first time so it made sense to do it again.


AM: The mix is wicked! Where and how did you record the mix & was there an idea or theme behind it?

Thanks and I’m glad you like it. The mix was recorded in my apartment in Lusaka (the capital city of Zambia). I recorded the mix using my old Numark controller and Serato. The idea behind it was to still do something focused on rhythm and the club but a warped/broken version of that.


AM: What have ay been listening to & digging recently?

Strict Face - Pulsers (EP), Money Lang - Trevino Mare Mixtape, Míchell Cuartas - Delicate & Strong (EP), the recent Don Toliver album and lots of The Time (I’m a huge fan of the Minneapolis Sound).


AM: Whats next for ya?

Got more mixes coming and I’m currently working on demos for a couple of labels so hopefully you’ll be hearing from me a bit from me in the New Year. Keeping my fingers crossed for a couple of shows as well.

Letra:

SACO DE CHETO A ESOS BOBOS 
QUE FLASHAN Y NO PUEDEN
CON ESTA MIERDA FULL ANTISISTEMA
Y QUEMA A TODOS LOS GILES EN LA HOGUERA 
LES SALTA LA FICHA 
TREMENDOS PANFLINES
LES SUBO LA VARA HASTA CHIPRE 
LE FALTA UNA BANDA 
INSECTO INSERVIBLE 
PETARDO SIN FINES
WACHINES DE MIERDA 
ME PARO DE MANO 
CON FACA Y CALIBRE
CAGADOS EN LA PATAS 
NO AGUANTAN EL MAMBO 
QUE ESTAMOS TIRANDO
LOS PIBES CON CARPA 
NI RICKY NI MORTY 
VOY 666 VO' FI 
YA MILLON Y AL SOBRE
NO ENTIENDEN EL PORQUE NI COMO
ESTAMOS BIEN CROMO
BATIENDO EL VORTEX 
SONANDO EN EL COSMOS
ROMPIENDOTE EL ORTO
CON ESTE SONIDO 
QUE YA ME DA MORBO 
COMO SE LA PONGO

3X5 SPLINKOMANE 
UN PAR TE MANDO Y TE VOLÉ
SI QUEMO BLUNT ES QUE NI SÉ
ME TEMO QUE TODO ES FAKE
EL GOBIERNO TE QUIERE GIL
WACHO POSTA VOS SOS UN GIL?
VENI A DECIRME ALGO 
O CERRA EL ORTO GIL
3X5 SPLINKOMANE
UNOS PARES TE MANDE
EL GOBIERNO TE QUIERE GIL
WACHO POSTA VOS SOS UN GIL?
VENI A DECIRME ALGO 
O CERRA EL ORTO GIL

WACHA FIJATE COMO YA LIBERO 
CINCUENTA DEMONIOS DE ESTE CALDERO
VOY CIEGO SINCERO
FUMANDO EL CAOS DE ESTE UNIVERSO 
Y TIRARLE EL HUMO EN LA CARA
A LOS GILES DE MIERDA
QUE RESTAN Y FLASHAN
NO SIRVEN DE NADA
SON PURA CARNADA
LOS DEJO EN LA LAVA 
QUEMANDO POR FUERA Y POR DENTRO
DEJANDO CENIZAS EN EL SUELO
DE NADA, YA ESTA YA ESA PLAGA
NOS VEMOS
BIEN AHI, NO
BIEN AHI VOS, BRO
QUEDASTE EN UNA CRANEANDO 
ESTOS VERSOS MALDITOS 
QUE YA NI CALISTO QUERIA AFRONTARLOS
EN LA NEURA 
Y BOCHA DE MONJES CORRUPTOS CAIDOS 
POR SIGLOS DE MIERDA MALIGNA
LLEGANDO A INOCENTES
MOLDEANDO PARASITO EN MENTE

CAGADOS EN LAS PATAS
NO AGUANTAN EL MAMBO 
QUE ESTAMOS TIRANDO
LOS PIBES CON CARPA 
NI RICKY NI MORTY 
VOY 666 VO' FI 
YA MILLON Y AL SOBRE
NO ENTIENDEN EL PORQUE NI COMO
ESTAMOS BIEN CROMO
BATIENDO EL VORTEX 
SONANDO EN EL COSMOS
ROMPIENDOTE EL ORTO
CON ESTE SONIDO 
QUE YA ME DA MORBO 
COMO SE LA PONGO

3X5 SPLINKOMANE 
UN PAR TE MANDO Y TE VOLÉ
SI QUEMO BLUNT ES QUE NI SÉ
ME TEMO QUE TODO ES FAKE
EL GOBIERNO TE QUIERE GIL
WACHO POSTA VOS SOS UN GIL?
VENI A DECIRME ALGO 
O CERRA EL ORTO GIL
