Soreab - Sensitivity 6.0 

March 24, 2023 -  12" Vinyl, Digital & Streaming

Soreab debuts on Avian.
Dario Picchi, whose repertoire includes forays into Dancehall, Bass Music and genres less easily classified, alongside a spate of intriguing collaborations, keeps things sparse on Sensitivity 6.0. The six track EP offers up idiosyncratic takes on IDM, Techno and Ambient music with a focus on intricate sound design, showcasing the Baroque Sunburst label head’s admirable versatility as a producer.
Brazen opener Squirrel Stampede might surprise listeners expecting a more delicate approach from the EP title. Neatly layered and economic in its execution, it’s a forceful slice of modern Techno. Meditative follow up Trub marries a thick, undulating percussion line with a saccharine melody. Loose synths emerge sporadically from the sonic periphery, breaking up the rolling drum pattern to create a cinematic atmosphere. Closing out the A side is Giale Draws, an intriguing beatless piece with nods to both vintage Musique concrète and more contemporary compositions from the electronic music leftfield.
On the B side, Soreab ups the tempo and goes fathoms deep with the cavernous Dust Eater. Landing somewhere between Autonomic Drum & Bass and Dub Techno, it sets the tone for the dense, atmospheric march of Insomnias that follows. Letting well-worked drums lead the recording, Picchi introduces Rhodes and a low-sunk synth flourish to create a crisp, hazy atmosphere. Rite closes the EP, a glistening Ambient recording with subtle percussive motifs and delayed vocals that sit atop hypnotic pads – a wide-open, ethereal closing statement.

https://soundcloud.com/priori-ties Priori's latest single, "Pareidolia," is out today on all digital platforms. It serves as a preview of his upcoming EP by the same name on Midgar in mid-April, coinciding with the label's 9th anniversary. The title is inspired by the phenomenon of recognizing familiar patterns in random objects, which Priori artfully incorporates into his sound design. Imagine anthropomorphic water droplets ascending to a higher plane of existence.

Jan Loup - Admit Defeat (Esgeem Rework) [Free Download]

We are glad to present the debut album from an artist within the Organic Signs family: @solmadj . One year ago, the French artist planted the seed of this sonic journey with his set at The Memoir by Hypnus Records. Now, that seed has fully blossomed, unveiling a collection of new creations. Eight tracks that define his sonic universe, where DnB, halftime, and tribe intertwine in an atmosphere of hypnotic textures and pulsating synths.

The journey begins with Wetlands, drawing us into a mist-laden landscape where solitary birds glide through the sky and the dense humidity clings to every breath. In the dim light, a deep, enveloping sound spreads through the air, merging with electrified gusts of wind. As we move forward, distant echoes of other life forms emerge, thriving in the space between water and earth.

The first heartbeats stir in Mud. Continuing the path set by its predecessor while subtly layering new elements, the track immerses us in mystical soundscapes, unlocking portals to uncharted dimensions. Percussive fragments, scattered across the stereo field, begin to surface tentatively, paving the way for Clay, where the hypnotic progression deepens.

With Spores, the rhythm evolves into 4x4, maintaining the ethereal essence that has permeated the album from the start. Percussion elements phase in and out, leading seamlessly into Trimitic, a stripped-down yet profound exploration of minimalist Tribe.

The album builds in intensity, reaching its peak with Fungal Network, an electrifying burst of energy crafted to set the dancefloor ablaze. Then, The Consciousness of Plants slows the pace once more, introducing a whispering voice and a synth that oscillates fluidly, pulling us into its meditative sway.

The journey culminates with Reset, where the tempo eases, and the narrative comes full circle. The echoes of birds return, this time illuminated by the clarity of a new dawn. With Liquid DnB rhythms and textures, Solma concludes his debut album with a farewell that lingers in the mind, resonating long after the final note fades.

We are very happy to announce that the first EP “The Other Side” by our friend from Le Midi, Souzo, is now officially out!

Five beautiful originals full of attractive deepness, comforting analogue warmth, and seductive tones for the explorers of the mind.

The drexciyan grooves of ‘A175-4 Levit8’ and the pressure-inducing ‘Don’s Eternal Drift’ set the release’s mood and show Souzo’s delicate taste for sharp, icy transients and round, mellow subs. We just stepped through the gate. Following up is ‘Haze Modulator’, one of those tools you feel like never fading out with a perfect balance between cycles of coercive dancefloor energy and drop-out momentum.

‘Octotiger’ and ‘Overloaded Bucket’ open new corridors and make up the last chapter of the EP where Souzo showcases its interpretation of the drum & bass plus techno cross-bred genre, where rolling hi-hat loops and stomping syncopated kicks provide an anchor to his signature, ethereals and sustained textures.

The release is available for support on Bandcamp and streaming on Soundcloud and any usual platform.

Souzo - A175-4 Levit8

"Poison Keeper" is an insect-like creature that wanders through desolate spaces in a compulsive search for a single drop of life-giving water. But the void is not what it seems, as the creature is not the only one thirsty: weaving the path through the tapestry of the unexpected is a must, representing the playful arrangement of the workflow, which first swallows listeners in quicksand but then spits them out to continue this tireless groovy journey.

"Rizoma Granulare embodies the symbiotic relationship between electronic music and the intricate horizontal growth of rhizomes, resulting in a release that finds its roots in a subterranean sound realm, where granular textures and hypnotic rhythms intertwine through an intricate musical ecosystem. Listeners are invited to experience the interplay of stretched grain resolutions and primal bass syncopations pulsing from the depths of each artist's introspection. Flourishing organically, the music branches out in unpredictable directions."

tm d1000 working properly as a 0db limiter insert effect on the main desk's master bus. penne with the good sauce i know how to really bring that shit.  trick is to do your sauce in the oven, get your olive oil nice & hot, fry off your minced garlic, i add 3 capers per can of tomatoes at this point also.  u can add some red wine if you're goin w a red meat, lemon juice if you're doin fish, balsamico for your all purpose.  do this now cuz it reduces quickly and the flavour comes out.  plum tomatoes in, drain the juice away first (i drink it).  tear up basil leaves throw them in.  1 hr per can low and slow.  few other secrets im not telling hehe but trust me on this i am the sauce boss
