DROOGS015 : Drain Clog / Hellion

A. Drain Clog
AA. Hellion

Gremlinz & Jesta continue their reign of tyranny back on DROOGS with two cuts of spine chilling blacked out Jungalism.

“Drain Clog” floats lunar hums and distant transmissions above stuttered rufige hardstep, as seething reeces slither into a coil around the beats, saturating the atmosphere in menace.

“Helion” sees clattering breaks, beastly knocks and cascading snares tumbling down into a machine gun tribal march, punctuating the sustained frigid dread.

OA302: Esthetic & Reac-Zo - Ethereal Echoes EP

Sonic technicians Esthetic and Reac-Zo return to Onset with a four track journey into liminal realms beyond the veil. The EP pulses with a haunting energy, blending mechanical rhythms with distant atmospheres. Spanning a variety of BPMs from sludgy industrial halftime to driving breaks, each track feels like a plunge into the unknown. Reverb hangs thick in the air, the music breathes with a ghostly presence. Ethereal Echoes is a sonic landscape that feels both vast and intimate, a weighty reflection of space and sound.

Esthetic & Reac-Zo - Limb (Original Mix)

Samurai Music returns to the evocative sound world of Ancestral Voices for an album that splits the difference between cinematic sound design and deadly restraint at 170 BPM. Nemeton continues Liam Blackburn's exploration of ancient Celtic mysticism through snaking rhythms and snarling sound design, conjuring a high-definition sonic image of sacred groves and the druids practicing amongst them.  

Blackburn's Ancestral Voices project tracks back to 2015, when he debuted on Samurai Horo with the Night Of Visions album. In stark contrast to his celebrated 140 work as Indigo, this project leaned on the inspiration of pagan spirituality to charge his vivid, advanced production style with a rich and mysterious atmosphere. While he's channelled this approach into a variety of tempos and styles, on his 2016 EP Old Earth Voodoo on Samurai Music he applied the concept to a drum & bass framework, which he returns to on Nemeton with rigorous focus.

Far from a straightforward collection of breakbeat tracks, Blackburn uses negative space and pointillist production to carve out an immersive, tense sound world around the 170 grid. He takes a widescreen approach to percussion, running from pin-prick synthesised one-shots to tumbling, organic drums you'd more readily associate with a Hans Zimmer score. Scene-building is the foremost mission across Nemeton, casting otherworldly forces in sweeps of low-end friction and dramatic melodic blooms amidst tangible real-world field recordings of flora and fauna.  

Casting the mind back some 2000 years is an exercise in imagination as much as research, and Blackburn ably summons dark fantasy as he delves ever deeper into Welsh mythology with a studious zeal and avid fascination. It's that drive that makes Nemeton burst forth and take shape so powerfully, bristling with kinetic energy and a barely-concealed, strangely seductive menace that leaves a lasting impression long after the last snatch of bass has bared its teeth.
