@dysfunctionalfamily

The contemporary cross-pollination of electronic genres and styles has a way of bringing out the very best of daring, boundary-pushing musicians and creatives. Hailing from Essenbach, Germany, the contemporary producer and songwriter duo Dysfunctional Family has a bevy of obvious talents all suffusing together; from synth work to drum programming, harmonic interplay, and the massaging of the vibe, their work has a way of setting the bar a few notches higher, and is consequently gestating a particularly driven sound. As a result, The Rust is extraordinarily excited to present their latest minted works, the 10-track LP A Day At The Beach.

Walking through the front door of the album puts the listener on prime, beachfront real-estate; A Day At The Beach is quintessentially a collection of downbeat, IDM-infused tracks that flip between pulsating low end and extremely lush compositional dialogue. The overarching musical narratives are brought to life through potent Reese synthesis and hyper-dextrous percussion anchored to the interplay of chords, leads, lone piano lines, and a panoply of glitch motifs and manipulated audio artifacts. The beauty of the album is both its expansive palette and it's incredibly tight songwriting fundamentals, showcasing a creative mind that's as compositionally focused as it is exploratory, and the marriage of risk and reward plays out across every single track on the LP. Regardless of where your tastes lay on spectrum, A Day At The Beach has the right blend of ingredients and right attitude to appeal to any and all ears and minds at large.

Release notes: 

The album "Solace" from electronic music artist Spoq is an immersive sonic experience that pushes the boundaries of genre and experimentation. Fusing elements of IDM, Chillout, and Triphop, Spoq crafts a mesmerizing tapestry of sound that captivates listeners from start to finish.
At the heart of "Solace" lies Spoq's unparalleled ability to seamlessly blend beats, electro-acoustic elements and unconventional synthetic sounds and noises into compositions that defy categorization. Each track shows Spoq's skillful craftsmanship, with layers of intricate detail inviting listeners into a world of sonic exploration.
One of the album's defining characteristics is its dynamic range, which manifests in both tempo shifts and mood variations. From moments of serene introspection to breathtaking emotional outbursts, "Solace" takes listeners on a journey that is as unpredictable as it is captivating.
The music often carries an introverted and melancholic tone, reflecting themes of solitude and longing. Yet, amidst the melancholy, there is a sense of catharsis as the music builds towards powerful crescendos, offering moments of emotional release and redemption.
Throughout "Solace," Spoq demonstrates a mastery of composition that is both awe-inspiring and deeply affecting. Each track is carefully crafted, with every sonic element serving a purpose in conveying the album's overarching themes and emotions.
"Solace" is more than just an album—it's an artistic vision and innovation in electronic music. With its beauty, complexity, and emotional depth, "Solace" invites listeners to embark on a transformative journey that lingers long after the final note fades away.

Govinda has been continuously redefining and rebranding itself. After revisiting this project a myriad of times to ensure absolute perfection, Govinda presents Burning Rings of Helios, now out on Gravitas Music. This seven-track album has been Shane’s favorite project to produce thus far, as it traverses different realms of gypsy violin and dives into new inspiration stemming from circus arts. The beats are soft and subtle, yet abrasive and envelope crushing to take Burning Rings of Helios unexpected places while still staying true to Govinda.

Listeners are greeted by a mysterious violin in “CObra STyle” before encountering an upbeat, gypsy dubtronica soundscape that is composed of several twists and turns. The journey proceeds to meet the “Goblin King,” who welcomes visitors with piercing melodic vocals that accompany soothing strings and an abundance of glitch. “Inside Your World” explores the dark and haunting depths of exotic bass, with bewitching vocals that urge listeners to continue the designated path. A sultry violin fluidly glides through the sharp cosmic atmosphere, which causes eyes to wander into “Nebulous Space.” Once consciousness returns, a muted trumpet in “Smokey Memories” attempts to defog hazy recollections in a mellow blues. Soon after, live instrumentation is employed in “Bent Cipher” to distribute a gratifying electronic jazz punch. As the pilgrimage comes to an end, assorted elements featured in preceding tracks are incorporated to tie up the project into a “Twisted” finale.

From what I know, this track was first played at an after-party late night SnowBall 2013... & Then secondly just again on This New Year's past.

It's all about how the years slip away...

Michal Menert - The Hunger Of Youth

Born from a path of shared experience and kinship, Variant Field is a fusion of two minds traversing the boundless landscapes of beat-driven electronica from one chapter of musical history to the next. Touching on every tempo and instilled with the energy and spirit of warehouse, club, desert, and festival culture, the project draws upon technical influences from years recent and past while reveling in its creators’ enduring instincts to explore, expand, and reshape concepts lying at the core of music and the greater human experience.

After meeting in Santa Fe, NM in the mid-nineties, producers Alex DeYoung and Amani Friend (Desert Dwellers, Liquid Bloom) began producing electronic music together in 2004, developing a distinct sound that collided the cerebral influence of IDM and UK electronica with a genre-blending array of fast and downtempo beats, heady breaks, deep bass, and rich dub rhythms that spoke to their mutual love of underground music and dance floor culture. Building on musical themes that had endured through the decades, DeYoung and Amani’s releases displayed a timeless and technical quality that bore the hallmarks of numerous musical styles yet could not be decisively placed into any single genre. They began releasing these deep and cinematic stylings in 2008 under the banner of Variant Field and quickly found favor in the international scene, with releases on Iboga Records, Merkaba Music, Interchill Records, Twisted Records, and Desert Trax lining their discography in the years that followed.

A portal to the unfolding story of electronica through time, Variant Field’s compositions occupy a space between niches and deviate from the traditional constraints imposed by genres, tempo ranges, and the everlasting battle between light and darkness that has come to define music scenes across the globe. Whether inoculating ambient soundscapes with syncopated drumwork and heavy bass, blending acid-style synth progressions with classical instrumentation and mid-tempo beats, or conjuring opulent psychedelic atmospheres alongside the warm and soothing rhythms of boom bap, the duo’s sonic identity is rooted in the notion that music is a spectrum without limits — flexible, expansive, and perpetually in flux.
