LAD026 Tale Of Us & Mind Against – Astral 
Get it here: http://btprt.dj/1j96pHe

Is the doctrine of the mind fully contained within the physical brain? Or are there places that we can traverse, places between places, that exist outside of ourselves and the consensual reality we all seem to inhabit? Close your eyes and just try it for a second. You may be surprised where you go…

Exploring this theme of journeying beyond our strict sense of self, label mates and friends Tale of Us and Mind Against have joined together once again to create a work that works, fittingly, well past the summation of it’s parts. Playing with tension and release and a restrained but expressive sonic palate that paints a picture without words, these accomplished artists from the Life and Death team bring us to a place that seems to surely exist. Even if we might not be able to pinpoint exactly where that is.

LAD026 Tale Of Us & Mind Against - Astral

Industrial Transmission 1

Drumcode has become a label synonymous with some of the most-cutting edge and forward-thinking techno over the last 20 years. Their artists include both emerging and established names, and one of those well recognised is Enrico Sangiuliano. Now announcing the very first concept album of his career.

The prolific Italian producer has been catapulted into the limelight after the runaway success of his past releases, and now Biomorph is born. 

A very special concept album designed to take the listener on a journey of evolution. A musical adaptation describing how biological and technological advances over numerous generations of time have all started from the same first step in our own biological journey.

Divided into 4 parts, Organisms opens with atmospheric tones, gradually blending complex textures and timbres to begin the evolutional process. The beginning of this section combines full sounding arrangements before stripping it all back to basics. From here it dissolves into the atmosphere. Organisms then progresses into a break-beat influenced, down tempo track using synths to add complexity to the straight, broken rhythms.

Galactic, futuristic elements are found in both tracks in Cosmic Forces. Upbeat, groovy, electronic synths resonate, before ‘Hidden T’ brings the tension to get things pumped up with stratospheric swirls and twirls to lay down one of the most mind meltingly deep drops.

Metamorphosis is mysterious, its opening beat is a deep and piercing tone that sends the listener into a sensory awareness of their surroundings before breaking into a fully charged, techno track, with Enrico’s trademark sounds and textures.

All evolution has an ending.

Two Probabilities shows the positive, starting out evocative and emotional, with a gentle harmony, gazing towards a ‘New Dawn’. On the other side of the spectrum lies the negative. This is influenced with a rhythm that articulates the beat of death, mathematical, cold and metallic in texture, it shows the unsustainability of its nature, with a hectic, anxious break beat influenced ending.

The digital version also features a bonus track; 'A Further Existence'.

Basswell - Blood In My Ears (GRND120)

Release date: 12th of October 2018 (vinyl & digital format)

A1.  Surrender
A2. The Informant
A3. Space Beacons
B1. Mathematical Language
B2. Visitors From The Stars
B3. Sagan's Implication

30drop debuts on Token with From Beyond The Unknown -- a six-track journey that evokes an excommunicative sense of splendor from the outer reaches of worlds beyond. Beginning with Surrender an immediacy pulsates from the outset and dances towards the playful exuberance of The Informant -- calibrating the gears for what frequencies are to be heard in the interim. Space Beacons delights with elegant pads and wry rhythmic evocations, while Mathematical Language bursts with energies that have been long dormant since the days of Jeff Mills' The Purpose Maker. In that same vein, Visitors From The Stars is an entropic message from above, seeking out a communicative line that's emotive and conductive -- leading towards the last track of this journey. Sagan's Implication is an adroit homage to the legendary astrophysicist; leaning into melodics that are both marvelous and mysterious all at once -- similar to finding the answers that lie above us. All in all, a journey that begins by looking past what's diegetic and looking for answers past the narrative presented.

Our next premiere is a track titled 'Rangda' taken from Torgue's 'Barong' EP due to be released on Amsterdam based label Märked.

The foundation of 'Barong' EP was born in Indonesia, where Torgue travelled and fell in love with the land and culture. Being an admirer of mythology, he there decided to let three tracks interact with each other, through name and meaning. The battle between good and evil – Barong and Rangda – is expressed in The Holy Dance to represent the eternal battle between good and evil.

'Rangda is the soundtrack of Indonesian martial arts practitioners fighting off Rangda’s black magic. As it progresses, slowly but surely the big arena pad and organ’s emotions will open up and reveal a sense of triumph.'

Tracklist:
1. Barong
2. Rangda
3. The Holy Dance
4. Barong (Ayarcana Remix)
5. Barong (Incident Prism Remix)

Our next premiere is a track titled 'Encoded D.N.A. Synthesis' taken from NN's 'Dystopian Society' vinyl EP due to be released on Paris based label Demian Records.

With this release, the artist lays the foundations of the label. Through four original tracks, NN (Nuit Noire) offers a romanticised EP, rich in cinematographic landscapes. He portrays various scenes of a dystopian world with the power of ancestral ritual to epic choruses, the sound design of each piece will immerse you into different atmospheres. Associated with the dark techno that makes his style stands out, the selection also happens to be composed by very efficient DJ tools. 

For Encoded D.N.A. Synthesis 'to escape this punishment and rise to the rank of the divine, the human uses his knowledge to overcome his own condition. Hope or clueless redemption? There is a certain melancholy in this tribal track, as if to close a premeditated wandering.'

Tracklist :
A1 - Ancient Worship Rituals 
A2 - Police brutality 
B1 - Awake My Judgment 
B2 - Encoded D.N.A Synthesis

Release date : 12-11-2018

[Premiere] NN - Encoded D.N.A. Synthesis (DEMIAN001)

Our next premiere is a SDB remix of a track titled 'Genesis Reading' taken from Pier's 'Divided Attention' EP due to be released on Amsterdam based label Märked.

Pier blasts a fresh wind in the saturated French scene and is joined by veteran JoeFarr and artists of the moment Corroid and SDB. Divided Attention could be an ode to realization that life happens when one is busy making other plans. To be able to be more efficient in our day-to-day lives, divided attention allows us to process and carry out multiple tasks at a time. In music however, different sounds – which can be seen as stimuli – are often organized in a rhythm and are subconsciously heard as one piece, the composition.

Kicking things off with Genesis Reading by evoking all kinds of dreamy imagery only to be fully straightened by a hard kick and punishing percussion. The harmony of sounds – of which the sneaky eagle-like sounding stab – makes you reminisce about dusty older times with hints to eurodance.

On remix duties SDB brings to the table an engine driving on short synth notes, arpeggiated and amp’ed. Also here the track benefits from the vocals delivered by Pier: they add a sense of nostalgia. Moreover SDB’s signature touch is greatly heard in the continuation of the track, pushing the track forward with effectively tuned overdriven synth hits.

Tracklist:
Pier - Genesis Reading
Pier - Genesis Reading (SDB Remix)
Pier - Divided Attention
Pier - Divided Attention (JoeFarr Remix)
Pier - Reign Over Fury
