“Cinders and toxic fumes choke the air as the gas-masked crowd occupies the dance floor. Molten metal still simmering in furnaces. Derelict kilns left empty and broken. The crowd chants as the battered machinery roars on. Before long the bass crashes through the industrial noise. SKUFF unleashes an arsenal of face-melting bangers; ensuring the fire started with the BAM series never burns out.  ”

BAM-007 is the last EP of the BAM series: a collection of various artist compilations showcasing Bambinos from across the globe.

Taken from SBKT040: Yen Tech - Assembler

Release date: 28th May 2021

With Assembler, his second full-length album, Yen Tech re emerges in ecstatic and primordial new form -- a multi-layered and interwoven work that blends futuristic production, meta-science fiction, and anthropic critique into a dizzying array of next scenarios -- a maze-like vision of our technological and exponentially oracular, full-stack future.

This imagined future becomes a construct or place in itself; one in which the record buzzes and swarms; a mechanosphere of towering melodic vocal samples and sound design - all narrated by Yen Tech's unnerving, diaristic vocals - as he channels the form of post-human techno cretin, whispering hyperbolic ASMR to no one in particular. We follow this character from one disorienting experience to the next as he recites a stream of indecipherable neologisms and hyper-descriptives, the existential residue seeping from every line. In the end though, a strange, uneasy beauty comes into focus; the metamorphic lyrics and musical euphorias revealing Assembler as a type of elegy: a wet glass reflection of the failures of what we are and were - and a jubilant celebration of what we may become.

"I imagined Assembler as a type of self imposed simulation, an invisible boundary that the narrator has to navigate out of to move forward. It was a way of looking at how we may carry the issues and failures of the past with us into the future. The psychological baggage of history, the guilt of geotrauma, the addictive melange of technology all become dealt with in this stage of acceptance and recovery. I wrote the album with this in mind, a process to find the slimy pearl of who we are" - Yen Tech

Yen Tech - Sentry

Artist: @xiaoquanxiaoquanxiaoquan
Catalogue Number: IM090
Album: A Taste of Revenge
Release Date: May 28th, 2021
Format: Digital

Having spent the latter half of 2020 pushing out a string of intense bootlegs via SoundCloud and taking up remix duties for acts like Ice_Eyes, São Paulo’s Xiao Quan is readying some original productions for his debut release on Infinite Machine, entitled A Taste of Revenge. These frantic, drum-heavy compositions see the artist push further into a liminal space where techno and hybrid club sounds blend - and continues a stylized nod to Xiao Quan’s muse, The Crying Freeman manga series.

The record opens with Chakram Intel Bulletins; one of the EP’s more measured moments but one that remains as tense and claustrophobic as the rest of Taste of Revenge. The layers of crunching analogue synthesis and the deluge of drum hits which seem to trip over each other are hypnotic; creating strange and disorienting effects on the ear. The end result has more than an air of the cyberpunk about it - as if Vatican Shadow tried his hand re-soundtracking Ghost In The Shell.

Xiao Quan notches up the dread and suspense on the following title track of the EP. Airy sustained tones and an unrelenting mass of polyrhythms push up against each other, vying for your attention before a piercing 2-tone melody cuts through the mix like a hot knife through butter.

With the next track, Shades of Death, the creeping suspense and claustrophobia of the previous two compositions is swapped out for unadulterated rhythmic chaos. Underpinned by an oscillating bass pulse, countless samples and drum lines are arranged in a frenetic audio-collage. A solid showcase of Xiao Quan’s skillful combining of sounds from across the globe.

The EP rounds off with The Crying Freeman, a track named after the manga that underpins many elements of the Xiao Quan project. The most melodic production of the release, the track’s mournful synth line glides over rushing, mechanistic drum patterns. This blend of the emotional and the machinic distinctly mirrors the situation of the manga’s protagonist; an assassin hypnotically programmed to kill on his master’s demand who sheds tears at the fate of his victims.

Even a passing glance at panels of The Crying Freeman manga clearly shows that Xiao Quan has done his homework on his source material. The producer masterfully channels the uneasy and shadowy world of the manga series and translates it into the sonic experience that is A Taste of Revenge EP.

Tracklist:

1. Chakram Intel Bulletins
2. A Taste of Revenge
3. Shades of Death
4. Crying Freeman
5. The Dragon from Russia (Bandcamp bonus track)

The 17th release of katharsis is the EP “Digital Séance” by Australian artist Sugar Ross. The album was created in the period of harsh lockdown due to the pandemic situation in Australia, which influenced the artist in various directions both in terms of the methodological and the thematic approach to composing, resulting in a unique style of experimental ambient music. Comprising of six tracks, the release is framed by the conceptual approach of exclusively consisting of heavily manipulated samples recorded directly from digital and analogue radio. 

This conceptual approach of repurposing audio material from radio signals speaks directly into the theme of cyclicality in all life, matter and existence, described in Buddhism as Samsara. Simultaneously, the methodology was inspired by the parapsychological concept of the electronic voice phenomenon, which is the idea that electronic sound recordings of noise and static can be used as a method of identifying supernatural entities. Finally, the artist was living in an area of hard rubbish collection during this harsh lockdown, which gave further inspirations from waste culture and the idea of recycling.

Sugar Ross - In The Realm Of Hungry Ghosts

Nothing is known about Blaire's early life, but it can be assumed that at some point he started working for the Murkoff Corporation - a company originally founded by computing pioneer Alan Turing and former Nazi scientist Dr. Wernicke, with a long track of crimes around the world. Blaire eventually rose through the ranks and became a high-ranking Murkoff executive. In 2009, Murkoff purchased and reopened Mount Massive Asylum, a former Colorado asylum, which remained closed for over 30 years until it was bought and the sole purpose for this purchase was so that Murkoff could start at the asylum the Morphogenic Engine program - nanotechnology experiments and dream therapies on asylum patients with the reason for these experiments being profit.

Intending to keep the experiments a secret, Murkoff hired paramilitary forces to guard the asylum and also appointed Blaire to become head of the asylum and report back to them results from the experiments. Blaire was especially dedicated to keeping what's happening inside the asylum a secret and going as far as institutionalizing, torturing, killing or enrolling at the Morphogenic Engine program anyone who tries to expose Murkoff and their plans to the public due to the fact that Blaire and many people who work for Murkoff could be given life sentences or the death penalty for crimes against humanity if exposed, as well as the possible large profit from these experiments.

World Canvas is proud to present the latest work of Ostrava based artist Strachkvas (Metoděj Motýl). 
Known as an active contributor of the Czech collective Gin&Platonic, their previous musical practice has navigated a triptych of abrasive club music songs, as showcased on their last year’s release ‘Break-in’.
Their new piece of music at hand, ’Blind Worm Variations’ is a display of evolving compositions which travel seamlessly within a world of ethereal ambiences & disjointed club music fragments, reminiscent of a space that once was but the memory of it still remains.
Over the course of it’s three songs, ’Blind Worm Variations' creates a world of elegance and beauty which is as eerie as it is captivating, calling and mysterious.

Strachkvas - Blind Worm Variations out on February 12th.

Produced, mixed and mastered by Strachkvas

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ ANGER MANAGEMENT ♥ (⩺︷⩹) is "name your price"* compilation (the second to this date) full of brutal and dark bangers from producers and friends affiliated with Unizone. Once again, the label gathered the dark souls of hybridized club sounds, and asked them to contribute with tracks inspired by the main theme of a record: facing their own anger and fears.

*Raised funds will be send to support Ciocia Czesia, an informal collective based in Czechia which helps obtaining legal and safe abortions to people with uteruses from Poland. The initiative was born after Poland’s controversial, politically driven Constitutional Tribunal ruled that abortions for “fetal abnormality” (the reason for 90 percent cases currently performed in the country) were illegal, thereby making it almost impossible to undergo. Ciocia Czesia supports mentally, logistically, and financially.
