‘Vicissitude’, the debut EP from Los Angeles-based producer Lag Switch, to be released on Parisian label Abîme, is a record that tells the story of light and dark in which those two collide within a single entity.

On one side, there is the harrowing sound design, the monstrous textures and the overall lugubrious ambiance throughout the record. It depicts the bleak existence of a solitary creature, repulsive yet confused, steadily dragging itself through a barren wasteland leaving pain and suffering in its wake.

As the name of the record suggests, its other side is infused with hopeful and scaterred chords progressions paired with elegant motifs. While obscured by a thick layer of dark, desperate matter, a powerful light seeks tries to bring order to the underlying chaos.

When taking a closer look and immersing oneself in Vicissitude, the apparent contradiction between those two fades away, and we’re let with a brilliant depiction of one’s humanity’s oldest story. The creature, despite its unrestrained nature, reaches a benevolent understanding of itself and blurs light and dark into a visceral manifestation of hope as the record concludes.

Lag Switch - Lucerne

He's reduced me to paranoia!

Somatic paranoia

Wound up with the matrix of 

My personal Saturn

A Christ In The Throngs of Christs-Tangling

Over Not Nary A Thing But Death Itself Will They Even Touch A Hair On The Head Of My Children

That depth of protection 

Terminally turns against my open breath

Through the care of the adipose

Fat overtakes strike upon bone

So that these black ringlets on the thick of my left hand’s middle finger

Running on the phalanx base past the carpals and above the lower digital knuckle

Tell me in my night time slumber the woes of this day’s light decayed

And I become ash

And the rust of us drops to phlegm

For no bone understands their piercing 

Their burn by air nor their punk by time

Sinews do not recall even one battle of 

Dribbled mucous and cracking blood 

with the thunderous clouds of pollen felicity 

amongst the collard-patched sandy yellowhills 

Dusts they carry when their water is no more they do not even recognize 

This bone in my brain I have

You gave though you didn’t have

And baby, this bone feeds too 

And on what? There is no knowledge.

Nothing but this whale,

Oh lord

There is no stretch or scrimmage ordained

Thought is illicitry

Speech is illicitry 

Sobs as the asbestos does its work on it

The bright of two eyes cross Oolong glass cradled by suicide nets 

to heat metal for warm tea to dip foam breadcrust

Africa finally breaks to feign spinal catastrophe

Where homo backs lock cold upon soil

Together we donkeying this stripped world

Shellshocked daddies canker our view

Waving hot bone of ox against dry bone of mammoth to assure that Aggliostrxo will remain parted from me

He and his Fresca face remain stone to me 

And I actually got a bone where actual sense should be

Low in the human zoo

Fat overtakes strike upon bone

Blue for nothing but this whale, oh lord

Only the graven embrace of combs

Inlaid fancy in my iron chest’s solemnity

Can stand to stand any of it

I bow my head and clasp my hands above this box

I whisper, Aggliostrxo, a wish that this cheat finds its way to you

As fanfare for the touch of our sorrows

Over which Urania-glow is to be in falters.

@cobweaver
It is time to let go of your fear and doubts. You must learn to embrace the darkness of your soul, for it is a light beacon of hope for humanity. Your soul wants to show itself in its truest form, strength, perseverance, courage and determination of spirit. In this lifetime your soul needs to cleanse and open its feelings for katharsis.

With the double compilation “Infinite Summer: Ekstase & Fantasi”, katharsis celebrates the return of raves and concerts to society after a long period of pandemic shutdown. A magical summer has passed filled with an incredible pallet of emotional material, ready to be expressed. Therefore, we encouraged a collection of artists we adore to channel their imagination of the greatest way to conclude an endless summer night into a piece of music.

This resulted in a grand assemblage of harmonious manifestations, naturally splitting into two divisions with opposing focuses. On the first part of the duology “Ekstase” coming out on September 20th, we are presented with fourteen tracks for the dancefloor in an array of different styles, ranging everywhere from energetic morning vibes on the junglish opener “Origin, Gate's Dawn” by Yem Gel to hardcore sensations on Mang’s trap-infused roller “Based Halo”.

Premiering "I Miss U A Lottt" by @lloydfears taken from "Saint & Ogre" out on November 1st via POSTWORLD

Buy: https://postworldmusic.bandcamp.com/album/saint-ogre

lloydfears is a Berlin-based MC, performer, and artist from the North of england. Their EP Saint & Ogre is the first solo project on POSTWORLD.
After the cathartic release of lockdown anxiety on Gressive [Infinite Machine] and the delicate re-emergence into the outside world on Self-Soothe [xenonyms], on this new project lloydfears brings listeners along on a shared exploration of the possibilities of hope. Over four tracks, Lloyd uses hope as an emotional and logical response to the daily dose of dystopia.

Mad at the world? You need to calm down. In need of connection? Say it, sincerely. Tired of posturing for the eyes online? Try some honesty, honestly.

Artista Visual: Alberto Urias - BOFKID

Soy Alberto Urias, BOFKID. Nacido en Sinaloa, con exportación casi inmediata a Tijuana, Baja California. Desde chico se interesó por el graffiti, jugando con líneas y manchas. De graffitero a diseñador, de piloto de drones a pintar muros y mezclando loops de video en tiempo real. Como vj ha colaborado con Designer drugs, Kill the Noize, Le Castlevania, Shinichi Osawa, Harvard Bass, Stereoliez, Acid Girls, entre otros, parte visual de las noches goticas de CHOLOGOTH NIGHT X Dave Parley ( Prayers ) y VJ de Cumbia Cartel. Larga vida a las noches con compus fallando en directo y metros de cable por guardar. 
 
La historia del video ocurre en “La Rumorosa” que es una carretera asombrosa, una jungla de grandes piedras y habitan animales que pocas veces se dejan ver. El trayecto es una locura, muchas sensaciones corporales y mentales, siempre imaginando que se levantaran gigantes de piedra o la sensación de los oídos tapados por la altura que se alcanza al recorrer esa majestuosa carretera para conectar Tijuana con Mexicali y el resto del país.
