OECUS Premiere // Arthur Robert

Extract from "Transition Part 1" [FIGUREX25] @figure-official
Release date: March 22nd, 2021

Breaking out on Figure with an exciting debut double EP in 2020, the Arthur Robert now returns with yet another equally impressive pair of records.Here the artist once more shows his unique mix of psychedelic elements with a deep hypnotic edge and a straight-up dancefloor approach.

This two-part release comes as a varied collection of strangely beautiful melodies and lively modular sounds that infuse each track with far more life than is visible on the surface.

Transition Part 1 starts out strong with stomping kicks and crushing percussion, it’s the glitchy effects that etch in a memorable listening experience.

Soma welcome the debut album from the ever-growing roster of youthful talent as Lewis Fautzi drops The Gare Album, named in homage to The Gare Club, Porto, where Lewis made his discovery of Techno. A bold 4 track single debut gave rise to the album process midway through 2013 and under the careful supervision of Soma, Lewis has provided a definitive peak in his sound cultivated on the back of years of studio work. A collection of deep, dark and twisted techno awaits heralding a coming of age for the Portuguese native.

A droning, industrial vibe is immediate from the outset as Signal crackles into existence giving way to the cavernous UBV-76 with its concrete swathes of noise. High intensity pings form the depths give a sense of what is to come. Intriguing, broken beats deepen proceeding as Lewis takes things to The Other Side of Reality. A momentarily respite before he begins to open things up. Blocker takes the tempo up a notch with a thumping kick and looped out chaotic synths that slowly build the tension. This brooding atmosphere is carried on into the tweeked out and mesmerizing Sick, the punishing, bleeped workout of Range and the relentless, discord of Loudness. By this point Lewis has really worked up into a frenzy. Tight percussive workouts keep this album firing on all cylinders. A short interlude is offered as Opaque drifts quickly through the chaos of this straight to the floor album. Through the darkness, a glimmer of Hope shines through, albeit a cold and fleeting techno version as Lewis leaves you bare and bleeding. Yet more dance floor action as the elasticated synths of Binary (recently remixed by Spanish techno don Oscar Mulero) tear through the backbone of the album. By far Lewis’ most destructive track. The static buzz of Psychiatric is a welcome come down from the headiness of the previous track allowing Lewis to lead us through the black hole, ending on the Other Planet. It’s swirling, vortex like pads sliced open with subtle percussive, other worldly bleeps. A fitting end to this hyperactive techno journey.

A definite maturity in production shines through on this fantastic LP from Fautzi as he creates a cold and calculating output, clearly focused on the future. The Gare Album has allowed Fautzi to express himself fully through electronic music, a task that he has taken to whole-heartedly.

5. Lewis Fautzi - Range [Soma Records]

These are some samples of music I composed for the Rose Bruford production of Oscar and the Lady in Pink, directed by Arnar Davidsson. 

We follow Oscar, a young boy with leukaemia. In hospital he meets Granny Rose, who makes him believe that for every day he is alive, he goes through ten years of living. 
Each scene of the play shows Oscar in a different decade, something I wanted to mirror through the scene-change music.

Cleric x Setaoc Mass - Isolate EP [CRG010]

A1 // Altered States ft. John C. Lilly
A2 // Odyssey
B1 // Isolation
B2 // Centre Of The Cyclone
C1 // Madame Butterfly
C2 // 188
D1 // Subconscious Life
D2 // Exploration X

The tenth instalment of Clergy sees host to the second collaborative project between lifelong friends Jorden Hodgetts and Sam Coates (Cleric and Setaoc Mass) split over two discs. The first disc presents three driving rhythmic orientated tools, 'Odyssey', 'Isolation' and 'Centre of the Cyclone', which are sculpted flawlessly for the dance-floor. You can see a continuous theme surrounding the release, the exploration of escapism is perfectly introduced by a foreboding message courtesy of John C. Lily: "Be in the present..."

The second disc progresses as a means to go on, with the sonic emphasis moving more towards tone and melody. The sweeping pads of 'Madame Butterfly' and the sinister strings of 'subconscious life' give the songs a feeling of satisfying unease, while the electro-twinged melody of '188' evokes emotion from start to finish. Last on the EP is 'Exploration X', an ambient voyage which beautifully rounds off the record. CRG010 will also end the second series of releases on Clergy, starting a new look and bringing in a new photographer for the next series.
