'Noone St. Encounter' and all associated works were created, produced and compiled on unceded Aboriginal land. General Merchant acknowledges that it operates on stolen land, belonging to the Gadigal and Wangal people of the Eora Nation, and we pay our respects to Aboriginal elders past, present and emerging.

‘Noone St. Encounter’ sonically depicts ex-terrestrial-isms that stem from an obsession of other worldly life forms. Rxex utilises modular synthesis to create atmospheres that are both biologically familiar and alien to the human ear. Probing beyond the outer orbits of the sound-solar system, Rxex incorporates psy-fi fantasy bass-abductionism to create a unique and varied sound that is informed by a distinctive modular synthesis. 

The release features an excellent remix by Naarm based Homelander that operates as a more functional dancefloor track to round out the EP.

The CPU of René Leynaud Street in Lyon has prompted us to bring out Dj Iguane, a protagonist of the first Paris raves. Author of an anthem on Chronobrain 016 and a solid catalog on Hokus Pokus, Passe-Muraille, Toolbox… 

The art of a sound played at various speeds and cultured by a vibe close to the essence of the tribe. He'll guide this compilation with two tracks released in 1998 (Free Sex) and 2011 (Booboo Trakkv), cerebral productions from his punk machines.

It was in the same street, over a glass of wine, that 0-Confidence made the connection with CJACT's unstructured metallic blast.
 
He plunges his table-mates Brainbeats and pastresdrole into the intoxication of synthesizers.
One comeback hides another with Smogo, present on CJACT002, who doesn't neglect his acceleration so as not to lose control of this bewitched street.

SPLT is the key to slipping into a bass-infused “traboule” and slowing down the pace. The concert can begin.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Maquis Son Sistèm - Rizosfèra [SNVA001]

The Natron mirror of water, at the heart of many myths and tales, populates the imagination with its enigmatic deep red color and its placid and dark surface, guardian of secrets, seemingly quiet.
From its shores, majestic mountains can be glimpsed towering against the sky.
Its supernatural appearance that not even the most solid scientific reasoning can drive away: an expanse of water resembling rust streaked with white that pervades the Ngorongoro crater.
A peculiar color gradation resulted from the accumulation of sodium, very high temperatures and alkaline springs, which trigger a calcification process that no body or species can escape.
Once permeated, it remains there forever and becomes part of it: liquid and solid, fleeting and permanent, ethereal and evanescent.

"Natron VA001" is the Stagno Records’ genesis: an immersive voyage through this crimson expanse. It is a powerful, commanding force, like a tempestuous storm, yet also delicate and otherworldly. 
Six incandescent tracks from a meticulous selection of talented producers around.
Maquis Son Sistèm, K.o.p.32, Marmo, Atoloi, Plants Army Revolver, and CP1: in this impalpable journey they push the boundaries of uptempo and half-beat, with their pulsating basses echoing the raw energy of the crimson landscape. Fearless and immersive, these soundscapes are infused with techno overtones, transporting us into a world of sci-fi and aprioristic scenarios

Primärwald II

AF Premiere: Vardae & Toé - Rao [Monochrome Records ][OUT!!20.04.2024]

For its 3rd compilation, Blue Night Jungle dives deeper into the french mental music scene. Enhancing the underground metamorphosis of a new way of conjuring trance within electronic musics, it welcomes a batch of new artists (Beatrice M., RAVL, Vanda Forte, Paul Rêve, Tampo, Orchid, NOGE, Kick21, Solma, Khey Mysterio, Cléo II) but also spare room for known figures of the label (Smogo, Drawbridge, Trois-Quarts Taxi System or Boskøw). Going from deep tribe adventures to dark DnB paths, jungle and trance experiments, it gathers this whole new "mental" scene of french parties for a long journey through the depths of unknown jungles.

Kick21 - 10se

A fierce introduction to the world of Oomycota, Confluence is the debut long form release presented by Naarm based bluhol (aka Loïcc).

Building upon bluhol’s debut liveset performed at Minutiae Festival, held on Wiradjuri Land in NSW during the new year cycle 23. Confluence represents a conscious shift in the Australian electronica soundscape, drawing deep inspiration from the vast bush land lining the eastern coast and paying homage to the unique nature and phenomenons that exist there.

bluhol, previously producing under Loïcc, is a sound artist based in Naarm, who’s roots are firmly planted in the Northern Tablelands of NSW. They intricately weave together the organic and synthetic, exploring the juxtaposition of nature’s fluidity with the structured rigidity of urban landscapes. With a keen focus on technical sound design and modular synthesis, bluhol crafts immersive auditory experiences that transport listeners into realms both melancholic and unsettling. Their compositions serve as a medium for contemplation, inviting audiences to reflect on the interplay between their past and future selves.

Oomycota operates on unceded Gadigal land. Confluence was written and produced in Naarm. We acknowledge the traditional custodians of these lands and extend that acknowledgement to the Anaiwan people, the custodians of the lands where bluhol originates and draws inspiration from.

We recognise the immense privilege in being able to create on these lands, and pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging. Always was, always will be, Aboriginal land.

bluhol - Light And Shade

Supported by Kia, Ben UFO, Nastia, Batu, Soraya, DVS1, Sister Zo,  Akanbi, CCL, Pariah, Jon Hester, Yushh, French II, Gigi FM, Jurango,  Doctor Jeep, Madam X, Dj Rolando, Sybil, Sunju Hargun, Om Unit, among others.

"La creación de las aves," the third release from Andy Martin's own imprint, Diaspora Echoes, takes inspiration from the surrealist vibes of Remedios Varo's artwork. This EP dives deep into rich, textured sounds that are perfect for getting lost in. It's got those deep beats that pull you in, layered with intricate sounds that echo a mysterious and fantastical vibe. Each track feels like a journey, making this release a unique and immersive experience.

7.- Andy Martin - The Gurdjieff Movements

Part of the various Waitomo out on Stagno Records 26th April 2024.

About the VA :

A powerful glow paralyses time in the night. The hypnotic lights and the darkness of the ravine draw together silence and noise, the harmonic vibrations of a-formed bodies.
It's a different light, travelling cautiously and heavily, enough to pierce boundaries. It can permeate and engulf anything, its bioluminescence is magical and part of its amorphous system.
It's both astral and all too earthly. All around, sparkling threads weave the world's most intricate mesh: those who only travel in a straight line will be able to dodge the stars, but not this. It will be absorbed and be light.

A sprawling exploration of shimmering galaxies and subterranean swampy-tek. Not Mass, Simone Bauer, Thoden, Abo Abo, Drawbridge, and Orchid join forces and weave murky and liquid plots, sanctioning the second part of this VA's trilogy on Stagno Records.
