E.M.C. atmospheres - Inhmost

Skee Mask is one of dance music's greatest crossover stories of the past decade, with new albums greeted with the attention usually reserved for an Aphex Twin or a Caribou. ("Loved seeing this on r/indieheads," said one Reddit user, on the release of the 2021 LP Pool.) It's not hard to understand why: albums like Compro, he blends well-worn dance music tropes with incredible, detailed soundscapes and spine-tingling melodies. And on his 12-inches, he brings that sensibility to the dance floor, with an approach probably best described as articulate. Even on his most ambient of tracks, everything is in its right place. Along with founders the Zenker Brothers, his music outlines everything that makes Munich outfit Ilian Tape one of the best techno labels going.

On the decks, it's kind of a different story. It might surprise you if you only know his albums, but Skee Mask is an incredible DJ, balancing his predilection for hip-hop and UK-informed sounds with laser-focused techno. He can adapt to all sorts of situations—there's an incredible recording of him DJing with four of the best grime and drum & bass MCs in the business—and on his RA Podcast he focuses on the techno side of things, with nearly two hours of pacey techno and creative mixing, with dips into acid, electro, garage and more. It's a party-starting mix from a genuine star, perfect for getting through the holiday doldrums or pre-gaming your NYE plans. Like Skee Mask's best records, it's something to enjoy in any number of settings.

My Life, The Remix

This is not me. I am not a soldier in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, wearing my father's wartime uniform, on a laptop in a basement somewhere. I am an experimental producer.
but for some reason Russians want me dead, therefore
This is not me. I did not produce these wonders of soundwave, I did not mix the remix and master the masterpiece. I am a soldier in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, wearing my father's uniform.

But a heart is a heart and there are eleven hearts here and they are S280F and Grischa Lichtenberger and Angelo Harmsworth and Galen Tipton and sv1 and trngs and Sara Persico and Hwoaranng and Ludwig Wandinger and Ross Alexander and John Object. I am a file on their drives and they are the song in my heart.

The idea for a John Object compilation would seem obvious to some, as I really do know some of the greatest Ableton Live users to ever stumble upon this plane. I never had the heart to ask!

Ludwig Wandinger and Ross Alexander are two of my friends from Berlin, and they are, to date, the only people that made it their business to bring me to play in that blessed city. I played at 8MM Bar both times (that place is fucking sweet) at Salon Oblique events. Now, at this war, in what I can only describe as a gesture of love and tender caring, they called upon the geniuses of today to work on my work and provided me with an album where there could not be one. This is a remix compilation that I found out about only when it was already release-ready.

I really only could take one night off, walked to the nearest village, and my dear friend Andrii, a soldier himself, brought me my camera, and I titled the compilation in blood. Then for a month I worked on a .pdf booklet for the digital edition, that, really, tells the whole story.

I think this is probably the wildest, most advanced music ever to be released by a soldier in active service.

I can't adequately express the crushing magnitude of tenderness, love and gratitude that I feel towards every person involved.

Thank you S280F: s280f.bandcamp.com
thank you Grischa: grischa-lichtenberger.com
thank you Angelo: angeloharmsworth.bandcamp.com
thank you Galen: o0o0o0o0.bandcamp.com
thank you sv1: sv-1.bandcamp.com
thank you trngs: trngs.bandcamp.com
thank you Sara: sarapersico.com
thank you Hwoarang: fantasyfictionrecords.bandcamp.com/album/won-for-the-heart
thank you Ludwig: www.ludwigwandinger.com
thank you Ross: rossalexanderpayne.com
thank you Andrii for being the best friend in peace and in war.

This all happened only because Ross brought me to Berlin for Salon Oblique at 8MM Bar www.salonoblique.net, and then Ludwig brought me to Berlin to record with him and play at Salon Oblique again, and then because they cared about me, and because my friend Andrii brought me the camera and helped me find the right way to call this.

So much never happened, and so much never will, because of Russians and their deep-seated hatred of me, of everyone I love, and everyone Ukrainian. I am still at war and I am still under threat of violent death every day. Many people I knew and served with have already been murdered by Russians. I am just lucky.

Coming soon:
Limited edition engraved USB carabiner drive with Plead, .pdf booklet, and a recording of a John Object live set at Salon Oblique on October 18th, 2021, when the war seemed so very, very unlikely, and this existence was not imaginable at all. Ships starting November 1st.

E.M.C. atmospheres - Hypnotic Black Magic

🛒 https://standard-deviation.bandcamp.com/album/inverse
🔊 https://youtu.be/FzIj1OIFA8w

XTCLVR, the brainchild of Ukrainian sound artist and audio producer Artem Diachenko from Buchan near Kyiv, is set to release a new album titled 'INVERSE' on Standard Deviation. XTCLVR cinematic soundscapes have been featured in Standard Deviation’s audiovisual project 'Ridne' showcased at the CTM Festival in Berlin, ICA London and La Gaîté Lyrique in Paris. Known for his deep involvement in Kyiv's underground music scene, Artem is also a key member of the Pep Gaffe and Ejekt collectives, representing a fresh wave of Ukrainian independent artists dedicated to alternative and experimental sounds.

XTCLVR's music is characterized by deep, enveloping ambient passages and sharp synthesizer elements that often transform into hip-hop and dub bass lines. The name XTCLVR (ecstasy lover), created in 2019, humorously echoes with the techno culture.

'INVERSE' unveils a different facet of XTCLVR’s sound, with heavier and more aggressive tones. The traditional genres dissolve, and a grotesque tone draws the listener into a surreal, chimeric journeyThe album blends rich synthesizers and post-club polyrhythms with euphoric, upbeat elements, maintaining his distinctive style. Written throughout 2022-2023, the tracks on 'INVERSE' reflect a time of emotional instability and a dream-like state: is this all for real? The music features liquid sonic textures that escalate into distorted synths, fractured noisescapes, and eerie melodies. A standout track, 'FEEL ME', poses a bold inner dialogue, questioning reality itself.

'INVERSE' will be released on Standard Deviation on the 12th of July 2024.

This is part 1 of 3 of the recording from my set at Nowadays Nonstop on April 7, 2024.

I played from 9am-3pm, between JASSS and Bearcat, and it was one of the most creatively fulfilling sets I can remember playing – one of those sets where the audience, environment, atmosphere, tech setup, phase of the moon, whatever, all somehow lined up for a full 6 hours. And happily, the recording is maybe my favorite I’ve managed to capture to date. Huge thanks to Kristin for inviting me and to everyone who was there that morning.

Live at Nowadays 7 April 2024 - Part 1

Kyiv born and Prague based music producer, dj and audio performer, Andriy K. transfers you into his listening session. 

“This show it's a one hour live recording that will take you to the experimental forms of dub, idm and downtempo, mixed with electro-acoustic jams, vocals and organic textures.  

As of last year, I’ve been investigating and researching ecological problems and especially the ecological catastrophe in my original country - Ukraine.  

“Archivated” in abstract audio memories, this record is a filter between the reality and dreamy thoughts, not to cry, but to fly.”

Deep Breakfast 280 ~ Pjenné

Rinse France Podcast 

Ma Sha b2b Amor Satyr - 16 Janvier 2025

Mesmerising dance floor tapestries from a singular experimental musician.

Can you reinvent the human voice? The oldest musical instrument in existence, our voices are the foundation of music as we know it, and few push its limits in electronic music today like Lyra Pramuk. On her masterful debut, Fountain the Berlin-based, US-born artist's voice was the only instrument. No drums, no synths—just her voice warped, synthesized and layered to achieve orchestral-like electronics.

Five years on from her breakout, Pramuk's practice has steadily evolved, with a continued interest in ideas of folk and futurism, and how technology can enable us to build community beyond boundaries of time and space. There’s a holistic nature to her artistry, one that extends seamlessly into her DJing.

As she explains in the Q&A accompanying this week's RA Podcast, she sees her work as "part of a continuum of sacred, folkloric, and communal music represented by many different subcultures and communities across the world."

It's an approach that, like much of Pramuk's output, feels explicitly choral in nature. The first voice we hear on the mix comes from Lonnie Holley, his woozy Southern drawl calling out, "Earth will be there to catch us when we fall." (Although, you have to wonder, if we keep flogging the Earth, will it?) 

More voices follow across an eye-catching tracklist, from the poetry of friends (Nadia Marcus) to esoteric French chantresses from the ’80s (Anne Gillis), while Pramuk wraps an extensive amount of her own forthcoming material around tracks from SD Laika, Leyland Kirby, rRoxymore and 33EMYBW, to name just a few.

By the end, voice and noise become indistinguishable—stammering, glitchy vocals colliding with an orchestra of instruments. The effect is mesmerising.

Unfolding as one continuous composition, RA.979 exists somewhere between an ambient set at Kwia and the main stage at Unsound, voices and textures blurred into a fluid tapestry of sound. It's a singular offering to the series from a singular artist.
