In collaboration with ∄ and for its second birthday, Standard Deviation presents ’Vertex’ – a compilation of eight artists that contributed in shaping the sound of the Club over the course of the last year. A vertex is a point where several lines or objects meet and intersect with each other.  It is synonymous to a node – a fundamental unit that consists of a set of edges that form a greater structure.  The concept of a vertex is symbolic to  both the Club’s and Label’s approach:  connecting the dots between countercultures, bringing together local and international artists to form an inclusive dialogue.

An exchange of ideas, cultures and perspectives remains our main endeavor, and the main idea behind this special release. The compilation features four local and international artists – friends and collaborators, and is completed with a printed publication featuring  their conversations mediated by Mariana Berezovska, Berlin based Ukrainian journalist and founder of Borshch Magazine. The project is illustrated with a series of ceramic artworks by Kyiv-based artist Fata Morgana (@emptyland).

Long-term friend of the Club and Label  –  Nene H talks with ∄ resident and music teacher – Nastya Vogan, uprising talent and Mala Junta co-founder – DJ Tool comes together with protagonist of Kyiv’s queer scene – Gael, new Label prospect Omon Breaker  –  with Herrensauna resident Salome as well as Augsburg based, queer party ’HAMAM’s organisator – Sedef Adasi with ∄ resident-since-the-start – Recid.

The compilation is club tailored, ranging from vocal-infused Tech House, Acid and Electro to fast Techno, Trance and EBM. The wide array of styles represented in the compilation is reflective of  ∄’s identity, while the artists featured on this release have been shaping the sound of the club during these monumental two years. Special collaborations like Nene H’s vocally explicit work with Nik Mantilla and Omon Breaker’s piece, created in collaboration with Ukrainian EBM group Garden Krist exemplify the label’s stance on shifting genre borders and encouraging experimentation.

In coherence with the last years compilation ’Intermission’, we have asked  Emptyland to reinterpret the small Sigma symbol (the mathematical equation of Standard Deviation)  according to  her own vision  of this project.   She created five versions  of the symbol, each symbolizing the bond between the artists featured on the compilation.

Yhii - VOLCHOK PODCAST #50

In the city of Berlin, where so much of the offering comes with an inevitable side of self-consciousness, Georgian DJ Salome’s fast and fiery hardstyle trance is a joyous afront to mass-produced and solemn sounds. With releases on FTP, Mechatronica, Darknet and Lobster Theremin, multiple appearances on Hör as well as a flood of international bookings, her tongue-in-cheek bent clearly strikes a chord. Her climactic and hedonistic toying with the sillier sounds of 90s dance caters to a growing number of fans who tire of the limitations of standardised club culture, a rising tide in which Herrensauna’s prodigal daughter is poised to lead the charge with her radical measure of fresh and utopian rave: Bassiani Podcast 125 is her resplendent and dizzying manifesto.

Bassiani invites Salome / Podcast #124

DRIFT KYIV - RUSLAN MAYS

The duo are among the most striking acts on Nina Kraviz's Трип label. 

The story of PTU began with experiments with second-hand synthesizers and bass guitars, driven by a burning need to make "something different." It could have ended with homemade CDs and local gigs alongside other amateur bands at local concerts in Kazan, Tatarstan, where the same musicians would often form new bands by swapping positions behind keyboards or drum machines, or maybe adding a guitarist. At one point, PTU was reconfigured to become psychodelic Acid Monkey's Temple or an electroclash band called Love-Fine or the ambient band Olympic Snow. For a couple of years, they released field recordings and ambient tracks on a DIY label called Kak?Tak ("How Come"), until most of the members grew up, moved to bigger cities and got "real jobs." 

That would have been the end of PTU, had two of its members, Alina Izolenta and Kamil Ea, not challenged themselves to grow out the bedroom mindset and get to the front of what they call "techno's stranger sector."
