Snacks, munchies, nibbles... We all rely on little treats and indulgences to take us through the day. For Snacks, members of the Global URL Nation could propose a track in just 20 to 30 seconds. Not a demo or snippet, but an actual track that can exist fully by itself, something meaningful and impactful that would push them to distill their ideas down to their core essence.


Snacks explores what makes the backbone of a track, how to shape its core and play with temporality and emotions in such a short time span. The exercise is much harder than it seems, and it challenged every contributor to think critically about their practice and the listening experience of this unusual timing. When there is only 30 seconds to work with, every note and sound becomes incredibly important : how can a complete emotional arc can be created within a limited time frame, to craft a musical story that is both succinct and stimulating? 

By pushing artists to explore this format, the compilation aims to promote a deeper understanding of the creative process : when forced to work within constraints, we are forced to be more intentional and deliberate in our choices, leading to uncomfortable or innovative approaches to music production, as well as a greater appreciation for the values of simplicity and brevity.

The result is a compilation that welcomes artists from all backgrounds, including AFGA06L, Bademjan, Beatrice, B E N N, Bouzouk, Cesar Ch., Cralias, Dj Crave, Griigg, indigoblue, Lukann,  Medejín, personalbrand, Pénélope, P I T, Shashakimbo, Sxmbra, Victor Metske & VINÍ. Each artist has contributed with their unique perspective, ranging from ambient pads to abrasive cuts, percussive hits, and organic environments, always on the verge between frustration and comfort. 

Snacks is more than just a collection of tracks - it is a representation of the diversity of musical expression, and a testament to the creativity of the Global URL Nation. We hope that you will enjoy these little treats as much as we have, and that they can provide you a moment of joy or inspiration - as a quick snack to lift your spirits, or as a momentary escape from the stresses of the day.

VINÍ & Medejín - Palmyra

@elirrealveintiuno - Irrealidades
Format: Digital
Release: March 31st, 2023

Irrealidades is the new album from Mexican scene stalwart Bryan Dálvez, El Irreal Veintiuno on Infinite Machine. Although his reputation is well-established at home through EPs and tracks on NAAFI, Subreal and Infinite Machine itself, Irrealidades comes across as his boldest and most cohesive statement yet.

The album is a kaleidoscopic survey of Mexico’s rich sonic landscape, as well as an ambitious attempt to encompass the country’s historical becoming: from the rich, imagined sounds of pre-hispanic times to its current war-torn reality.

But an academic pursuit this isn’t and this is still very much music for the body. From the get-go, drums burn and rhythms gallop; sharp, aggressive synths insist and prod. Un respiro, the album’s mid-point gives us exactly that, a breather, albeit an emotionally charged one. Soon enough the second half of the record returns to polyrhythmic fury and ravey turbulence. We reach fever pitch on closer Minorías, envisioned by Bryan as a sonic representation of the eschaton: “the last track is merely the end of everything”.

Throughout the record disjointed voices loop endlessly before managing to articulate a single intelligible word. Maybe, Irrealidades seems to say, we are also caught in a loop, unable to break out from the cycle of violence and marching irredeemably (but with healthy curiosity) into The End, when Quetzalcóatl makes his glorious return.

I don’t think I’ll wake up from this never ending nightmare
Living with the lies thinking I’d would never grow
Now I see the phantoms looking at me with a wide stare
Then I hear them whisper in my ear, I’m not alone
I’m stuck inside this fantasy where I hear the melodies
Looping in my mind where the evil grabs ahold
Surrounded by insanity and searching for serenity 
Now will I ever find it or was it all a joke?
That I’ll never know

Your love a hand and I know when to let it go
But I still feel your whispering inside my soul
I tried to wipe the photos, my cpu just froze
My memory displaying what we called a home
And every text that I send
Rips the scabs off of my scars
The same wounds bleed again
And you bleed for me too
Know we bleeding the same
And the sky feel it too
Was that your touch or just the rain?
Find me in my bedroom in a bloody mess
Pain is an addiction need it in excess
I have these thoughts, I try my best but I can’t repress
If I had been myself would you have loved me any less?

Now I’m broken down, staring at the clouds
Held on to the light, hear me screaming out
Fall back in my grave where there’s nothing left to save
Harnessing the evil that has taken over my restraint
Now I’m broken down, staring at the clouds
Held on to the light, hear me screaming out
Fall back in my grave where there’s nothing left to save
Harnessing the evil that has taken over my restraint
And live without embrace
