The spiritual and uplifting music of Clifford White is highlighted with two of his most sought after songs, taken from his 1989 album The Lifespring, and presented here in a special extended 12” for the first time.

Starting in music production at just 15, White could be described as a protégée, however his take is that they were part of a music journey that continues today.   With a centre found in electronic music and spirituality, his progress, from simple home use 4-track stereo to working in professional 16-tracks studios was swift, but matched by a deeper appreciation, greater confidence and wider palette of music styles.  

Utilising his love of early samplers, his first use of the Akai S612 to accompany and expand his keyboard recordings saw continued development from his debut album at just 17 with Ascension (1985), to the follow up Spring Fantasy (1987) and on to The Lifespring (1989).  A small review in the local paper literally led to a knock at the door and offer of a deal from the Start (State Of The Art ) label to record his next album.   With a subsequent advance,  professional studio equipment was hired and out of these sessions his sound expanded to include ambient, orchestral, synth pop and even ballads.  

From this both Lifestream and Rain Trek emerged.  With a love of Jean Michel Jarre’s Oxygène in mind, Lifestream’s smooth beginning soon gives way to the pulse of an arpeggio driven groove.  Aiming for “relaxation with an edge”, the track has become a secret play for the more Balearic minded DJ in the decades since and now sees the LP trade for dizzying sums.  However, the original is aching brief, gracefully fading as part of the album’s journey.   Here though, with DJs and collectors in mind, White returns to the song to craft a specially extended version that completes the song and will be appreciated at sunsets across the globe. 

Seeking to take the music and listener to another place, Rain Trek took White’s interest in Sci-Fi and the mystic powers of water to a rightful conclusion.   The healing nature of his music is apparent, the mystery, yearning and travelling, all emotions evident, but with a kick that will grace the more enlightened dance.

A. Clifford White - Lifestream (Extended Mix)

Third Space was inspired by a digital painting of a house by Marilyne Blais. A printout of the untitled work was pinned to the wall in Casa de Haiku studio, becoming an unexpected influence on the record. The duo realized early on they had started to imagine the soundscape inside the dream-like dwelling. The depth of field is fuzzy, angles are confused, and the structural integrity is unclear. On Third Space, People Plus wander freely between real and psychedelic territories, dipping into trip-hop, downtempo, and jazz. They find their sonic context in a hybrid space - neither the bedroom nor the dance floor.

Third Space is the second release from People Plus, a collaboration between Joli B and Mood Hut’s CZW.

MH021 - People Plus - Third Space EP

"One of the hardest thing as a musician is to maintain this naive, almost utopian and emotional approach to our music. Especially when it comes to a highly codified genre like Electronic music which appeared in the late 80s/early 90s like a promise of a bright future for music, everything sounding so fresh and revolutionary. When Katerina sent me those demos I heard that freshness, that pure intention, something I remember from discovering melancholic Detroit tunes in the 90s or early Warp ‘artificial intelligence’ compilations, bridging the gap between techno and more intricate electronica. It’s been a while since I didn’t hear an EP so sincere - and not JUST nostalgic, that makes me want to dance alone in my living room and forget about everything else. It’s a subtle thing that makes the difference but that difference is everything, it’s Music."

Good news! We'll be releasing a beautiful LP from Unknown Mobile next month called Daucile Moon. 

Daucile Moon, which follows @unknown-mobile releases on No Bad Days, Normals Welcome and Young Adults, started four years ago in Vancouver when Levi Bruce was recovering from a broken toe and collecting MIDI files he found in an old geocities archive. It was finished earlier this year in Montreal with help from Mike Silver, AKA CFCF, who added plaintive guitar to complete the album's placid and stargazing style of ambient and downtempo music.

The album takes its name from an old, obscure Canadian jazz song that Bruce describes as "pretty but also with a serious amount of melancholy," which could also describe his new record. In the vein of Pacific Rhythm label-mate Khotin's standout New Tab album, Daucile Moon comprises drowsy beats and spaced-out loops, referencing the pinnacle of early '90s chillout and ambient while infusing it with the dazed sound of Canadian electronic music in the 2010s.

Bruce's process in making Daucile Moon was long but leisurely. He took the melodies from those MIDI files and moved them over to his analogue outboard setup and then back to his computer, creating a digital-analog hybrid that sounds as pleasantly worn as a dog-eared novel. Live instrumentation, like Silver's classical acoustic guitar stylings on "A Windless March Ouest," mingles with occasional dance music references like the subtle acid squelch of "Ravers Sojourn" or the hazy breakbeat of "Oenology."

The album was inspired by various happy memories, from sharing wine with friends ("Oenology") to a dog that Bruce met ("Simone Can't Swim"). The result is a patient and personal record that highlights the best qualities of Bruce's previous work as Unknown Mobile, with his distinct style of melody and soundscaping set free from kick drums and the dance floor. It's telling that Bruce originally sent the record, at first called Melancholic Songs For Dogs, to his parents and two grandmas—this is beautiful, relaxing music whose appeal is universal.

Daucile Moon will be released digitally across all platforms and on limited edition cassette tape available through our online store, Bandcamp, and Seance Centre on July 14, 2019.

Mastered by Nik Kozub.

Thanks for listening!

Fernando Falcão - Barracas Barrocas (OMSD07) 12" LP

A1. As Sete Filhas da Rainha Sumaia
A2. Barracas Barrocas
A3. Amarzônico
A4. Girandas
B1. Elas (À Girges Ristum)
B2. 7º Cavaleiro

Selva Discos fulfills its duty of giving a new life to Fernando Falcão's long lost LPs with the reissue of his album Barracas Barrocas, originally released through Egberto Gismonti's cult record label Carmo in 1987. Somehow, an original copy of this album is even more elusive than its predecessor Memória das Águas and it is a pity that such a stunning piece of music was kept apart from listeners worldwide for so long.

The follow-up to Memória das Águas was recorded in São Paulo after Fernando Falcão returned from his exile in France in 1984. In order to conceive Barracas Barrocas, the musician had the help of illustrious friends, such as singer-songwriter Alceu Valença and singer Tetê Espíndola, alongside brothers Myriam and Daniel Taubkin. At the time, Falcão was still using the sound sculptures he created for Memória das Águas, as he is credited in the liner notes for playing a "water orchestra" and his berimbau variant called balauê.

Barracas Barrocas is an album that works as a more condensed and coherent artistic statement of Falcão's œuvre. Lush strings, swelling brass, glowing production, and humming atmospheres fill the record, adding a beautiful yet subtly linked counterpoint to his previously explosive debut. It is very cinematic, sounding like the soundtrack of a play that only existed in the musician's mind.

For this release, not only the sound was remastered but the artwork of Barracas Barrocas was completely and faithfully restored. Also, the reissue comes with unprecedented liner notes featuring rare photos of the musician and his sound sculptures plus an article that tells the story of Fernando Falcão after returning to Brazil following his exile – a story that has never been told, until now.

Released on vinyl (and digital) on 23/08/2019. Distributed by Kompakt.

Split release by Piper Spray and Lena Tsibizova — two musicians whose sound can be described as bedroom electronics or low-fi ambient. Lena and Piper Spray are also members of the Air Krew collective along with their third bandmate Sergey Podluzhny, who is on mastering duties for this record.

Following the first track’s title, the album begins with a nostalgic synthesizer melody which pours on the listener like rays of the midday sun, bringing forward recollections of a pleasant half-forgotten time. However, memory not only holds the serene and nostalgic — it can also evoke painful and anxious images or even mislead its carrier by synthesizing new details and meanings.

The album seems to be transforming in a similar pattern. Arrhythmic beats, glitchy effects and faint voices — like spores of the unconsciousness that break through shallow sleep and fill the gaps in memory — gradually come forward, taking over the melodic element. By the second half of the record, the naive nostalgia disintegrates into distant echoes and the sound takes the form of a collage which almost sounds like magnetic tape experiments.

Despite the difference in tone and techniques, the two tracks here are not antagonists. They complement each other, presenting memory mechanisms and the experience of acute reflection in different colors.

Music — Piper Spray, Lena Tsibizova
Mastering — Sergey Podluzhny

514 - Your Perfect Imperfections [RERVA003]

(013) Noise From Beyond OST by 
Jin Cromanyon, Kind Human Being

- Kind Human Being - Lets Talk / "Lyrics":

Lets talk about the trunk
Being in a blue funk
Сar drives to the grave
Waiting for a dead slave!

The label’s 013 release says about itself by its number, showing you an imaginary OST for an unreleased horror movie by the masters of the genre such as John Carpenter, Mario Bava, George A. Romero and Sam Raimi.

The authors of the music "Noise From Beyond" are: the Japanese composer Jin Cromanyon with his suspense numbers, known for his work with Macadam Mambo; and the Russian villain Kind Human Being (vinyl releases on New Flesh and Fundamental).

“Noise From Beyond" is a 6-track musical crossover that paves the way to nowhere through sinister forests, rivers and mountains; hiding with a car in a deep fog of the night, you will still meet the dawn on the other side of the afterlife...

All Mastered by Dark Crusader Studio 2020.
Only studio .WAVE 16/44 format / NO MP3!

The Brvtalist is pleased to premiere a new track from Animal Holocaust. The French artist is set to drop Istanbul, a new EP on Argentinian imprint Gomboc Records and today we premiere the title track which is a magical trip which nearly transports you to the Turkish metropolis while keeping the artist’s signature power and hard hitting prowess alive and well. With its hypnotic sounds and tension building atmospheres, “Istanbul” resonates loudly across continents. The EP also contains the original, “Talkshow Addiction” which is a more delicate yet still massive track which leaves its mark. Finally, the release rounds things off with a remix by TWAN which pushes the tempo to dance floor destruction and a rough, rugged industrial remix by Aneed.

a_hank - Phase In EP

 release date: 22 May 2020 
Label: Domina
Pre-order: https://bit.ly/phaseinep
Soundcloud: https://bit.ly/ahankscpvt
catalog number: DOM011

Like a heatwave burning the skin with no kindness, Rio de Janeiro based producer and sound engineer a_hank light things up with "Phase In", his debut EP on Domina label.

Dragging dance floor energy, bass science, and junglist feel, the EP reunite 5 killer jams from a_hank, and a remix by Ananda, juxtaposing metallic chords, modular synthesis and rusty drums with syncopated rhythms.

As our 11th statement, "Phase In" draws a personal portrait of a low-key figure from the rave movement in Brazil nowadays, breaking the limits of post-apocalyptic body music.

Domina is a Brazilian label dedicated to underground and experimental electronic music produced locally nowadays.

* * *

"Canteer" kicks off at a high pace as a hard-hitting jam with harsh snares, bold kick drums, and an evolving electro feel.

"X-tex" and "Ravo" morph fast drums with incisive stabs and nasty chords, reflecting on classic-influenced old school rave bangers.

"Assay" fuses peak-time modular experimentation and floating grooves with a breakbeat flavor.

"Kintsugi" takes it to a more inner place, with its hypnotic groove and entangled patterns.

"X-tex Midnight Scream Remix", signed by upcoming producer Ananda, important piece of Rio's underground party scene, brings a mysterious trance vibe with a persistent kick drum on top of echoing pads.
