Collateral Intelligence's Butterflies In Funerals is widescreen, sometimes dark, often hopeful electronica with one eye on the stars, but grounded in the sheer cathartic necessity of its creation.

The new moniker from Maltese wunderkind Neil "Acidulant" Hales, the album was formed during a turbulent period in the artist's life, when his father was seriously ill in hospital. Butterflies in Funerals is his way of expressing the complexity of emotion he was going through at the time.

"To me it all looked like a very dark movie," he says. "That's why the tracks are are at times cold or have a sad, emotional, or hopeful feeling."

Drawing on his impressive background in acid house and electro – with releases on Balkan Vinyl and Jack Trax – the album takes in mutant breakbeat, battle-scarred ambient, and tripped out 303 grooves, but pushes his sound further and deeper than ever before.

The album cover features specially designed artwork by rising star Fei Meng, who will be exhibiting at the Royal Society of British Artists later this year.

So in 2021 join Collateral Intelligence on a journey into the recesses of the soul, and emerge, purified, and ready for the rest of the trip.

Level Radio 11.21.16 w/ Alvin Aronson

"The fascinating history of Academic electronics reveals composers and scientists operating between real and theoretical worlds in Belgrade.

Vladimir Ivkovic applies his aesthetic lens to a fascinating array of leftfield electronic music and experimental composition, creating a compelling show that is as much sound collage as radio tribute. Each month our host unearths scenes and artists from across Europe who dare to ask questions about tone, form and timbre while challenging the status quo. Lunatic Love Songs is a call to arms against conformity, and asks you to forget what you know during a two-hour journey down the rabbit hole."

We dive into two hours of uncanny German music, from electronic pioneers and krautrock innovators to experimental minimalists.

Vladimir Ivkovic digs into some of his favorite German records for two hours of eerie and uncanny music, from electronic pioneers like Conrad Schnitzler and Dennis Hart and the experiments of Innovative Communication to the slow-mo blues of King Kong, plus everything in between.

From 1977. Chris Harman here attempts to recover Gramsci from the Eurocommunist interpretation prevalent at the time.
Although this talk is mainly a polemic against the Marxism Today view of Gramsci, Harman provides a clear guide to Gramsci's though and revolutionary intentions.
