OW6 Harald Uunk - Unseen 

Harald Uunk’s debut album, Unseen, is an immersive, contemplative trip through the forest. The 18 tracks are designed to build on each other, starting close in and gradually expanding to poke at the different corners of your mind. There are heady, overcast and menacing moments offset with pupil-dilating, sweeping, atmospheric levity. 

And just like the transient nature of our thoughts and moods, there are ephemeral qualities to each track. Varied tempos, warm basslines, fluttering glitches, undulating percussion and moments of crystalline equilibrium lean into elements of dub, minimal and introspective techno. 

Five years in the making, Unseen puts all of Uunk out to the world. The Dutch DJ/Producer has crafted the record off the back of his experiences in nature and his immediate surroundings. The output is a reflection of the energies around him and the result is a spatiotemporal play. Where some tracks sway and stretch from side to side, others are packed tightly on the spot or drive forward through the trees with the full power of a calvary.

015 - Max Duret

Born from a strong musical proximity, or+be is the alliance of the similar and complementary visions of @orchidj and @beatricemasters
Their production and DJsets present as the crossroads of their sensibilities and acts as a canvas of ideas drawn from the most psychedelic and deep zones of the club : drum and bass, halftime, ambient, tribe or trance influenced, the mood ranges from airy serenity to throbbing undulation, evoking past euphoria.

Aerae bursts onto the scene with a perfect album focused on broken dnb rhythms. The whole set maintains a development and exquisiteness in each note and section that floods you with a hypnotic and essential groove. Without a doubt, a great discovery that we at Annulled are pleased to present with support and enthusiasm.

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Maquis Son Sistèm - Rizosfèra [SNVA001]

The Natron mirror of water, at the heart of many myths and tales, populates the imagination with its enigmatic deep red color and its placid and dark surface, guardian of secrets, seemingly quiet.
From its shores, majestic mountains can be glimpsed towering against the sky.
Its supernatural appearance that not even the most solid scientific reasoning can drive away: an expanse of water resembling rust streaked with white that pervades the Ngorongoro crater.
A peculiar color gradation resulted from the accumulation of sodium, very high temperatures and alkaline springs, which trigger a calcification process that no body or species can escape.
Once permeated, it remains there forever and becomes part of it: liquid and solid, fleeting and permanent, ethereal and evanescent.

"Natron VA001" is the Stagno Records’ genesis: an immersive voyage through this crimson expanse. It is a powerful, commanding force, like a tempestuous storm, yet also delicate and otherworldly. 
Six incandescent tracks from a meticulous selection of talented producers around.
Maquis Son Sistèm, K.o.p.32, Marmo, Atoloi, Plants Army Revolver, and CP1: in this impalpable journey they push the boundaries of uptempo and half-beat, with their pulsating basses echoing the raw energy of the crimson landscape. Fearless and immersive, these soundscapes are infused with techno overtones, transporting us into a world of sci-fi and aprioristic scenarios

Further Inward with Third Space

I discovered Third Space’s sound few years ago via his Anxious, Fast EP and later his mind blowing Pattern of Spring. Deconstructing drum and bass at the edge of ambient music. Geometric patterns shifting in and out of phase like a calculus of unknown functions, leaving us with one question: is he making unreal patterns sound familiar, or making familiar patterns sound unreal ?

I am extremely pleased to welcome Matt on Further Inward with a deep and powerful live set. He’s showcasing an immense tallent of blending polyrithmic d’n’b and IDM inspired drums with razor sharp textures and metallic drones in the most refined way. 

I was also thrilled to learn that his next release, which will see the light on the 30th of April 2024 on Absorb, was at the core of this live set. You can premiere ”dot points” via @minimal_collective channel.

Third Space's own words about the mix:
"This mix aims to realise a part of my long held interest in rhythmic music that is ‘slow but fast’ - for me that means music that on paper is very claustrophobic and tense, but is made up of elements that change very slowly. In practice that’s quite a mystery to achieve and I am still working it out, but until then… the mix features lots and lots of layers of my own drum programming stacked on other tracks, plus varied textures, tracks at the wrong speed (letting the bpm shifting algorithms do their thing and creating some nice digital artefacts), so on and so on."

Further Inward ✧ Third Space

Head-snapping DnB percussions embedded in spacious sound design characterise @3rd-space‘s upcoming release ‘dot points’ on @absorb-label. With rhythm building as lyrical prose, the producer and live act takes a cultivated detour from drone, back to where his exploration into neo-classical experimentalism once began.

EM008 — "Hyperlost" by Raär + Whylie

A testament to catharsis of body and mind, an homage to sentiment and intrigue.

‘Hyper:lost’ purveys two interlinked but distinct sides of an artist whose reputation has spanned a long and ever maturing path of sonic development. Where Raär’s signature intricacy manifests in the grittier ‘hyper’ half of ‘hyper:lost’, Whylie counters with the haunted but sentimental spatiality of the other - the ‘lost’.

For this is like a search through the dialectic of the machine; energetic fluxes and frenetic textural modulations of the hyperreal encounter swirls of melancholy and lush human washes of its seeker. These are the contradictions of a determinedly uncertain pursuit; of a head charge into the void.

Twin parts diagnosis and remedy of a present insanity. Heads down and knees up for the end.

The atmosphere has overheated to more than 1,800° Fahrenheit. The shell is still thinning and the ocean is expanding. From Earth, it looks like a world of dark gas, evidence of the existence of remote and subterranean depths with planetary powers.
Its vertices orbit a yellow dwarf, similar to the Sun. It's seven hundred light-years distant and located in the constellation of the Dragon.
It’s a wandering cosmic predator: Tres now travels at the speed of sound and is faster than light; such a high temperature obeys no rules.
Its particles move wildly, the dark atmosphere becomes blinding.
