Name: It Came From The Future by Discoteca 101/P.E.A.R. Lab
Duration: 6 min 41 s
Description: Discoteca 101 goes into the third round. Our three hour jam session at Pete's home studio resulted in this vaguely dystopian retro-futuristic Electro groove. Enjoy :)

These acid grooves somehow remind me of the early Stakker Humanoid acid track :-)

Always love what you do with the syncopated rhythms.

Great beats, grooving bass-line and futuristic synth passages. Awesome track.

first ever blend of retro acid and electro....great job guys 

sorry....nice blend of not first ever blend of ...bloody phone 😠

just wonderful acid & electro vibes! pure bliss :)

I like the grit on that darker synth; very subtle.

Nice contrast between the ominous 'dystopian' feel you mentioned, and the bright, blippy layers. And I dig the wind-down at the end. This is a groovy project, my friends. :)

Argine is the result of opposite feelings led by the desire for change. 2022 has been a dense year and the sound of this work could not fail to reflect this adjective. 
I'm pleased to introduce the album using the words included in the cd sleeve. Thanks for listening… 

"On my tiptoes I loosened the screws of parched gears, leaving it to fate to bring down my fake ivory skeleton with a gust of wind. 
My name has been written among the creeks of the time - every name should be like this - but no one has ever reminded me of it. The nuances are imperceptible letters that curve the gaze, small gems given away in the Pisces era. 
Last night I saw tomorrow in a succession of twelve blades, like a pond that suddenly turns into an ocean of tears. It is that smell that penetrates the senses just before the rain arrives, the muddy scent of burnt silk. 
I play arpeggios of inconsistent notes with the unfinished idea of an abstract smile, colored sketches that are linked to my abandoned dreams, thrown into the basement of memory. Timidly I open that door and I sit on the antique armchair in the center of the room. Beyond the walls there is only the mute din of nothing calling me, but I do not answer and with bare feet I wait for the water to rise, touching my skin. 
What is a metamorphosis if not the suffering of a new life? I vomit golden placenta and beg my shadow not to go away. I shake her hand that slowly indulges at the crossroads and, at dawn, a hill of snow-covered cedars turns into my new dwelling. 
Today it is the precious metal that I fold without hurting myself, shiny and unscratchable. Tomorrow I will see my bloody shadow again and among crystal fragments I will dance with him again as a gift that I will repeat until my peaceful farewell." Francis Gri

El Imperio De La Luz

"Mesh" (2022-2023) for ensemble and live-electronics, here live-performed by the Nadar Ensemble at the Concertgebouw Brugge on 26.3.2023 (Yves Goemaere, perc & live-electronics; Dries Tack, bass clarinet and live-electronics; Thomas Moore, trombone & euphonium; Nico Couck, e-guitar+FX; Pieter Matthynssens, cello; Stefan Prins, live-electronics, Wannes Gonnissen, sound engineer).

Additional samples from Rainforests in Borneo and the Amazon recorded by David Monacchi for "Fragments of Extinction".

Commissioned by Nadar Ensemble & Concertgebouw Brugge. Supported by the Flemish Community.

----------------

Even though "Mesh" can be performed as a stand-alone composition, it was premiered as part of the evening-length project "Der Wanderer 2.0" which I developed together with the Nadar Ensemble in 2023. In the version presented in the context of this project, the audience is wearing headphones on which part of the soundtrack and amplification is played back, while other parts of the soundtrack and amplification are heard through the loud speakers on stage. This splitting allowed for an extensive manipulation of sonic depth, nearness, distance, foreground, background, blanketing and uncovering. The audience was encouraged to play with the headphones, taking them on and off freely, listening to only one ear, etc., creating their own listening experience.
Of course none of this can be replicatd on this live-recording, in which the soundtrack is rendered to stereo.

[S27-200] dissolved | nonima : Teichopsia EP

Last time we had a collaborative release from Dissolved and Nonima was on 2015's "Dissemination Fall" - however the duo have occasionally remixed or collaborated on projects in the years following. "Teichopsia EP" is four self-contained tracks culled from a handful of new material produced over 2022/23 and promises more to come from the project.

It Came From The Future

Welcome to the neon-lit world of Discoteca 101. 
Bathe in the warmth and light of Italo Disco melodies, bold Jarresque synth lines and the drive of classic House & Electro.
Peter Baldwin & Martin Grafton, ( S. A. Fred & Arran Trax respectively) have combined their powers, creating music to tackle the 21st century, with a big nod to the golden era of electronic music. Each D-101 track is the product of the two Hamburg based Brits fusing their perspective on classic dance genres in an exciting and unpredictable jam session.
