F2. @Jessica-Ekomane x @ZoeMcPherson - Iteration

‘Ostgut Ton | Fünfzehn + 1’ is a commemorative compilation celebrating 16 years of Ostgut Ton – and the first glimpses of light at the end of a long dark tunnel for parent club Berghain.

Originally planned for release in 2020, the music focuses on the interwoven nature of the label and the club in its multitude of different spaces and musical facets. Ostgut Ton artists and close affiliates worked together in pairs to make music dedicated to five different floors, each represented by a specific 12" vinyl. The result is a diverse selection of sometimes functional, other times more abstract sonic tributes; musical homages to spaces they have both influenced and been influenced by.

With the pandemic having forced the club to close temporarily, the collaborative nature of the 5x12" boxset represents an attempt to transcend varying degrees of isolation and to wrestle with memories of music and space that had been inaccessible. But certainly not forgotten.

What have her eyes seen (Excerpt)

Buy : https://gridrecords.bandcamp.com/album/rabatanto-ep
Stream : li.sten.to/8btkpkuq

Toupaz lands on Grid with a luminous, deep and complex EP. 4 tracks mixing impossible genres with contrast as the watchword.

The lead track Rabatanto wanders between dubstep and techno influences, at once dark with sizzling bass lines and ethereal with dubby percussion samples. A club banger for any crowd.

Genuine Connection is the tool of the bunch, galloping along at 142bpm it will thrill everyone with its ultra-detailed uk bass vibe contrasting with airy and colourful synthesizers.

On the b-side, Birdsong slows the tempo with a slow dancehall atmosphere mixed with deep subs and rap vocal samples.

Islandish, the closing track puts the emphasis on emotions, with emo synth lines again combined with dub echoes and a false slowness to create a one-of-a-kind emotional mood.

For his sixth 96 Back LP, Evan Majumdar-Swift found himself writing “a long form eulogy” to his years living in Manchester while preparing for an imminent move to London. Initially intended as a series of technical exercises, which saw the artist radically stripping back his established production setup, over the last two years tender, exit gradually took on the form of an emotional landscape, mapped in transit between two cities. “The overarching concept of the record is cycles, recognising them, loving them, and tearing yourself away from them,” he says. Heard together, the project takes on the pace and cadence of a passionate conversation with a loved one.

111X ‘Urge’

111X, the elusive prince of noise, returns to Changeless with his latest offering ‘Urge’.

Picking up where ’Shame’ left off, ‘Urge’ depicts the shift from collapse to confrontation, driven by the restless push-and-pull of one’s inner fire and crushing powerlessness. Compulsive resistance in the face of our inevitable fallibility. An ouroboros corporeal battle between necessity and yielding, vigour and weakness, progress and decay.

‘Urge’ is a reinvention of 111X’s signature harsh sonics, meshing it with brooding apocalyptic guitars and ephemeral fragile tranquility, with a familiar relentless weaving pulse at it’s core that’s all the more brutal with each return. The EP opens with ‘Avenge’, where the veil of monumental thrashing of fragmented rhythms slips for a brief moment that’s just long enough to catch a glimpse of the hurt behind it all. ‘Fragments Held Together By Pressure (Forgive)’ slows everything down to a halt, while soft melodies bleed through the noise like a memory echoing as it fades away, becoming more indistinct with every moment.

The EP’s turning point ‘Serrated Edge’ presents us with a completely new side of 111X; a meditative lullaby with bursts of noise that emerge throughout the track, meticulously designed to remain uneasy even in the softest moments. ‘Hunger / Wilt’ closes the record with it’s pounding drums and piercing feedback, before melting into a stunningly beautiful coda leaving us with more hope than when we had diving into ‘Urge’.

Written, produced and mixed by 111X.
