For their sixth instalment, Lowlife Cartel follow up to their last two compilations (“Pimps Improvisations” in 2018 and “Omnia Vanitas” in 2020) with a new six-track VA named “Kodoku”; a vortical release, both bold and forward-looking, while fully geared for the club environment. Taking its title from a poisonous magic from the medieval Japanese era obtained by placing several venomous insects in a jar and letting them kill one another until only one survives, “Kodoku” - which interestingly also translates as “solitude” - features a cast of producers old and new to the fold including Saverio Celestri, the faceless △, Prince de Takicardie, Tundramane & Ko$te, Solar Alliance and shampoo.

A staple element of the Lowlife Cartel bunch, Saverio Celestri paves the way and dishes out one of his signature jagged, EBM-informed weapons in “Sundays”. Through this hotchpotch of acid-steeped bass entangled with a frantic newbeat-ish swing and razor-sharp synthwaves, the Italian producer shows off the raw and playful facets of his craft to optimal effect. Unknown contributor △ clocks in with “Crachats de Lune”, a proper ominous banger going straight for the jugular with its clever mix of dusty, drum-laden churn, processed vox stabs and sci-fi-indebted laser bursts flashing by unrelentingly. Tailored for hi-octane action at the defunct Boccaccio or Hacienda, Prince de Takicardie “Jam’on’Acid (House Mix)” blows the winds of euphoria across the club like it was done in 1995. Vibing to a pulsating mix of rabid snares, 303-vehicled charges and mangled vocal samples on a classic free rave tip, throwback material that packs a punch.

Flip it over and here is North-American duo Tundramane & Ko$te shifting the scope to Memphis chopped-and-screwed in true hardcore fashion. Straight-out aggression, “Brick To The Face” lives up to its title, so expect leaving the place with a few teeth out your mouth and a good concussion, though more side effects could appear over repeated listens. A radical U-turn from the previous, Ute.-related triplet Solar Alliance - alias Ekkel, Oprofessionell and Mikkel Rev - bring their dashing trance touch to the comp with “Quest for Kiba”, an uptempo maelstrom for the senses, swirling and whirling up until space and time make no damn sense any more. Topping off that versatile tour de force, producer shampoo adds his delectably sensuous spin on the record with the lush, sample-heavy lo-fi appeal of “四季ノ歌”. Unpolished feelgood vibes, sun-streaked soulfulness and deft-handed MPC wizardry are on the menu for this ultimate ride and jolly finale.

Omni [Part 2]

Premiere: Matriark - Golly [BLUEHOUR10YRSP2]

Track: Water Lilies
Artist: Forest @forestchloe
Label: Geosmine
EP: Rana Brama
Release Link: https://geosmine.bandcamp.com/album/rana-brama

This first Split EP from Forest and GAUSS represents their take on modern trance music. Each track, while belonging to a specific sub-genre, shares a distinct primitive and organic touch. From heady and menacing synths to tribal and movement-inducing percussion, each composition is crafted to convey both emotions and the urge to move.

Water Lilies is a bass-driven goa-inspired track featuring airy synths and percussion that echoes like aquatic ripples, creating a fluid and hypnotic soundscape.

In keeping with the organic minimalism that defines Geosmine's visual identity, Arroyo designed an artwork incorporating Pre-Columbian and Gothic art influences, centered around reptile figures.

TECHNO MESSENGERS 2025

Un voyage entre le néant et la création.
Une onde de lumière émerge du vide à travers le son.
Basses profondes,un rythme éthérique dessinent le langage d’une conscience qui naît.
Un rituel de l’univers entre le silence cosmique et la vibration du vivant.
