aww she gorgeous melt in me im porous
she let me in the cut all raw while we tore up
cant ignore her im leanin on the border
of goin against that one old notion we dont love emmmmm
but its hard to think twos
i dont even love myself how the fuck could i love you
damn
guess its time to pay my dues
you say you love the slug who fuck is you
got an addiction
denyin girls conviction
but lately i been slippin catchin feelings when she dip in
i ain kiddin mixed up in my chest
breakin mutual vibes backwards macbeth
i attest to the poets of the west with their maidens in their arms in the bed undressed
keep it flowin in the ocean between her legs
im fuckin lost at sea i cant sea me comin back

in lieu of lonely ones i know
i color lines for you
dont pull it over your eyes
oh beautiful

ya friends think im bad for ya health and i heard ya got the house to ya self
but tequila sittin on the top shelf turnt around and said "nigga thats the help"
foyer, shower, patio, kitchen
everywhere but the bed room hittin so mitten still drippin wrist work water whippin
sweet kisses and the sounds of pleasure
got that unh packed up up against that dresser
succeeded in all my endeavors
i found my treasure
x marks the spot
i done made it out the desert 
the temperature just dropped baby girl up in my sweatshirt
i counted all the spots i ain know she was a lepper 
shorty cryin dont stop like she tryna set a record
wonder if i should text her...

in lieu of lonely ones i know
i color lines for you
dont pull it over your eyes
oh beautiful

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: bijū - Mudskipper [ERVA002]

A dark garage/bass tune. The raw vocal sample reminded me of a Love Death Robots episode called Zima Blue, from there I tried to keep that dystopian feeling consistent with dark samples/synths.

[Premiere] Sister Zo - Beyond The Wall (out on Lulo Records)

Berlin-based Mexican artist Viiaan unveils her new EP “Taiko”, a bold four-track exploration of rhythm, ritual, and futuristic bass. The title, “Taiko,” is drawn from the Japanese word for “drum,” symbolizing both the instrument itself and the communal force of ancient drumming ceremonies.
Across the EP, Viiaan fuses primal percussion with razor-sharp digital textures, shaping rhythm into pure motion.
The opening track, “Taiko,” sets the tone with glitchy micro-sounds that feel alive, mechanical yet organic. Massive drum strikes collide with synthetic fragments, evoking a futuristic tribal ritual.
“Amaterasu” continues with breakbeat ferocity, drenched in juicy percussion while a vocal slides in with raw confidence, charging the track with direct, physical energy. “Elohalo” shifts gears into rolling trap-inspired rolls, sub-heavy grooves and driving percussion. Its vocal accents keeping the intensity taut and immediate. Finally, “Azkhar” digs deeper — heavy, spacious, and alive with rhythmical chopped reese drones and flowing tribal grooves.
Between mechanical precision and primal power, the EP captures rhythm as a timeless human language — ancient in spirit, modern in execution.

About Viiaan

Viiaan, the sonic alchemist from Mexico City, has transplanted her musical vision to the streets of Berlin, where she continues to shape a world of sound that defies categorization. Active as a producer, DJ, and curator since 2017, she stands at the crossroads of experimental electronics and club culture.
As the visionary force behind Voragine, a label that serves as a meeting point for artists working across experimental sound, and visual art, Viiaan’s work blurs the lines between the introspection and the physical. 
Her sound is a living organism: breaks, intricate percussions, ambient atmospheres,  left field bass,  and techno intertwine to form a sonic language that refuses containment. It's a symphony of diversity that refuses to be confined, and this refusal is the lifeblood of her artistic vision.
Her discography reads as a journey with releases on Woozy Dub (Dublin), Sumac (Berlin/Sydney), Causal Chain (Montreal), WVWV (CDMX), and her own imprint, Voragine. Each release reveals another facet of her evolving artistry. 
Beyond the studio, Viiaan curates two distinct sonic experiences: Raeve and Ambient 4 Babies, gatherings that dissolve the boundary between performer and listener, inviting audiences into immersive worlds of rhythm, reflection, and club culture.

Preorder

Viiaan - Taiko [QNE017]

A stranger to none in our corner of the musical world, Qeone has quickly become one of those must listen labels for each release that comes by our proverbial desks. Fantastic sound design, jazz-like tempos and improvisation mean molds are constantly being broken and rebuilt in the artists’ imagination. This focus on experimentation and fresh ears has laid the groundwork for a hotbed of creativity. A label is very much a reflection of those that run it, to the surprise of none Polygonia aka Lindsey Wang heads the imprint, and I can’t think of a better example of this concept. Simply her production chops, curatorial skills, work ethic, and attention to detail are all constantly on display with this project. Not even to mention the artwork, which she also creates for each release.

For Qeone’s sixth and final release of 2025, Lindsey looks to Mexico City via Berlin based Viiaan and her forthcoming EP titled ‘Taiko’. Japanese for drum, the four tracker is a raucous affair, with bright percussion leading the way through syncopated tempos and an upbeat energetic atmosphere that gets the body moving.

Rounding out the EP is Azkhar, a four minute wild ride through esoteric melodies and what seems like a molding of genres. Is it half-time, is it breaks, is it tribal bass, who knows. The results speak for themselves as heavy bass elements rumble under as the label states, ‘rhythmical chopped reese drones and flowing tribal grooves.’

Azkhar and the remainder of the Taiko release will be out on the 4th of December.
