"The sky becomes bluer as we approach the end. The path of evolution, once viewed with magical and utopian glimpses, has proven to be the fastest shortcut to self-destruction.

A direct continuation of the mixtape 'In A Place Out Of Our Dreams', 'A Permanent Lapse Of Memory' is the latest release by Nørus.

As is customary, there is a story behind each album that Nørus releases, and it couldn't be different with this one.The 5-track EP is set in a fictional and futuristic Earth that has become uninhabitable for humans due to the destruction caused by the pursuit of power and greed.

Only a few groups remain, and the last of us have to escape and try to find a new home in the vastness of the Universe for an improbable and desperately needed fresh start."

Another episode of Prima Musica Infame Show rolls in soft and tender

Prima Musica Infame Show 008 w/ Edits

Invisible Inc once again presents another incredible full-length album from the talented Double Geography. Following on from 2020's “The Indoor Gardener”, the new LP “Open Water” is bathed in a similar blissful atmosphere.

Double Geography aka Duncan Thornley (one half of Weird Weather and studio engineer at MAP Studios), following the success of his debut album had sent Invisible Inc demos of his second and third album, which although excellent in their own way, the label reluctantly declined on the basis that the music didn't quite fit into the spectrum of the label's output. However, this fourth studio album fits the bill perfectly. Leaning towards the label's more ambient and laidback output, the album is themed around water, transience and escape and sounds as unshackled and free-flowing as you'd expect...you can almost feel the breeze in the air and the sun on your skin.

There is a noticeable progression in the music from his previous releases, this time featuring several additional musicians to compliment Thornley's electronics with live instrumentation...adding a complexity and depth to each of these compositions and an overall 'organic' quality that makes these new pieces sound like quite a departure from the first album. Fretless bass, clarinet and saxophone decorate the music with refrains and melodies that have been enchanting our imagination even in their absence since first hearing them.

“I wanted to incorporate some live musicians on this release so called upon some of the talent I'd worked with as an engineer at MAP Studios...that was the main drive behind the music for this release. The tracks are named after things that relate to either leaving behind canal boat living, e.g. Goodbye Great Escape (Great Escape was the name of our boat) or memories from a trip to Hydra, Greece. All sorta water related… On one of our walks around the island we ended up sharing a beach with Pierluigi Collina hence Famous Italian Referee! That track felt like the weirdest of the bunch so it got designated the weirdest name / memory!” (Duncan Thornley, March 2024)

INVINC 36 Double Geography - Open Water LP [clips] OUT 1 May 2024

Longtime music activists Rawmance and Asymmetrical from Rome have joined forces to create new music under the name 'La Nuit Je Mens'. Their debut work, titled 'Les Nuits Magnétiques', features two of their songs on a hand-stamped 7" vinyl. Utilizing a bass guitar, analog synthesizers and vintage drum machines, their music is infused with French vocals, lending it a cinematic touch and a sense of depth. While strongly inspired by the sound of the 80s, this record establishes its own unique identity, offering something new and refreshing.

RAS006 | La Nuit Je Mens – Les Nuits Magnétiques 7"

Straight From Your Heart

INTERVIEW + TRACKLIST > https://inverted-audio.com/mix/strategy/

American producer @strategydickow steps up to contribute the 382nd edition of the IA MIX Series delivering a stunning chill-out and downtempo podcast for expansive headphone listening.

Across a 20-plus year career, and as many releases, Paul Dickow operates at the crossroads of ambient, dub, and electronica. His most recent Strategy album, 'The Wet Room', his 20th album to date, was released in November 2023 via Community Library, the label Paul co-runs with David Chandler. It feels both timeless and of its time, fusing elements of climate anxiety with a heady aura of leftfield sonics.

Throughout his discography, Strategy has collaborated with esteemed labels including Kranky, 100% Silk, and Peak Oil, among others, as well as operating his own Community Library imprint, for an output as vast and varied as it is consistently stellar. He's as comfortable crafting hardware-focused, DIY techno as he is spinning long form experimental suites.

Strategy's mix is as wide-ranging, unpredictable, and eclectic as his music, spanning Humpbacks, Seefeel, Laurie Spiegel, and Strategy himself. It's an ideal soundtrack for expansive headphone listening or the strangest, grooviest pool party in the neighbourhood. In addition to the mix, we asked Paul all about his history, the Portland music scene, and tour memories.
