Life Like An Electric Surge

The 6th full length release from Rhode Island’s The Vomit Arsonist carries on the tradition of unwavering nihilism laid down by previous releases, but That Which Has Been Forgotten seems to go even further into depths of dysphoria and abject self-loathing. Maybe it’s the increased use of junk metal scrapings and shuffling debris that heightens the atmospherics and tension, or that the reverberating machine shudders just feel denser and heavier. Whatever it is, That Which Has Been Forgotten reaches a pinnacle of smoldering intensity and harrowing claustrophobia previously untouched, even by The Vomit Arsonist standards. Prepare yourselves, for the worst is yet to come.

In the last years, Asfast (aka Leon Leder) has established himself between Deconstructed Club Music and Dark Ambient. Originally socialized in the Breakcore scene, which also had a strong Metal impact, Leon Leder merges his diverse influences in order to create a new level of aesthetic entity called „The Prime Same“. He almost skips musical measures while using a slow narrative linked to oddly rough and intrusive rhythm passages. These noteworthy characteristics emphasize the idiosyncratic sound world of Asfast. While „Altar“ (Amen Records, 2018) already revealed moments of mysticism and symbolism, „The Prime Same“ sets out to deepen these impacts by deconstructing genre boundaries. Asfast celebrates a ritual, which faces the conflict of accessibility and confrontation without losing its inherence and particular focus.

Focus in restraint
Ascend and descend
Disembodied rituals through wordless narratives
Something opens and closes in slow motions
The inner becomes the outer, drawing paths and lines that eventually,
somewhere, cross each other again
In the end, these puzzles might solve themselves

In 2019 Asfast released his latest single "Drag Shift" in cooperation with SOAP & SKIN and EVELYN PLASCHG. His new album „The Prime Same" is the first one for denovali.

DT PREMIERE: Trenton Chase - Transit Decay [AD009]

‘Scanning Backwards’, @PhaseFatale’s second full-length album following his 2017 debut album for Hospital Productions, is music about control. Using the connection between weaponized sound and psychological manipulation as a conceptual foundation, Hayden Payne explores the ways in which music – and sub frequencies in particular – are used to influence thinking and to synchronize emotions and behavior: from military technology to sound systems and the physicality and sexuality of queer techno culture.

Known for his innovative post-punk takes of dance music as featured on EPs for unterton and Ostgut Ton, the Berghain resident draws on his background as both a guitarist and sound engineer to create a heady mix of broken rhythms, noise-, and shoegaze-inflected techno, often at slower tempos. The result is music with space and pace to expand, highlighting the intense rushes of frequencies found in both sonic warfare and functional dance music. Over eight tracks named after a combination of historical and fictional narratives from literature and science fiction, Payne’s rhythmic excursions explore different manifestations of sound as power – specifically within the context of seeing Berghain as an instrument itself. This is also reflected in the album artwork, taken from an early flyer for the SNAX party series and an obvious ode to the fetishization of power dynamics.

In his own words: “All tracks on the album, no matter the style, were tailored to sound a certain way in Berghain – something I figured out through years of dancing in the middle of the floor, DJing as a resident and investigating what frequencies really penetrate the body. This includes speech and high-frequency, brain-penetrating instrumentation and drilling textures that I had not utilized so often before, but which I think also have an effect on thought and memory. It's especially true in a space where gay and fetish roots combine with music in unexpected ways, almost in a cultish manner. A musical and physical deprogramming and reprogramming, psychic driving and de-patterning, the erasing and replacing of memories.”

Ultimately, ‘Scanning Backwards’ surveys not only the manipulative properties of electronic music (mantras, loops, subliminal messages) but also how rhythm facilitates both moving and thinking in synchrony; a pulse of coordinated sound- and brainwaves.
