Inspired from Romanian cultural heritage, be it film, dance or musical instruments, Folclor Abstract is a glance back to the roots in search of a meaningful future.

The first track is inspired from the soundtrack composed by Cornelia Tăutu for the Romanian historical adventure film "Buzduganul cu trei peceți" (1977). The film presents a politicized version of the events that led in 1600 to the unification of the three Romanian countries, in the aftermath of a victorious battle against the Ottoman invasion (Călugăreni, 1595). Dance your way through as the story unfolds.

Dans cu balans is the result of a personal fascination for the cimbalom, an instrument of high versatility, frequently used in the Romanian fiddle music. In contrast to orchestral performances, which adhere to the composer's notes to reproduce a work faithfully, fiddling is also open to improvisation and tends to produce rhythms that focus on dancing, with associated quick note changes.

Searching for inspiration within Romanian folklore, I found Ivan Braga who was on his own pursuit of cultural heritage, experimenting with a variety of traditional instruments and rhythms from different regions of the country. Doba lu' Braga is Ivan's modern take on Romanian drum patterns performed on a traditional Moldavian drum (dobă) with an uplifting twist and arrangement for the dancefloor experience.

Reverie is an expression of the creator's state of mind. Lost in thought, stolen by imagination, haunted by memories, liberated by dreams.

His forte is odd, dark, and trippy acid selections with elements of afro-futurism, cosmic disco, global bass, tropical house, psychedelic cumbia, weird downbeats - most vibrant music gems you can find all around the globe.

A-Tweed is the honored guest no. 2 in our No Order series - let's see what tricks he has up his sleeve!

No Order 002: A-Tweed

At last! This is Lost Soul Enterprises big 15th release on wax, a tidy compilation of off-kilter dance floor cuts and misfit synthpunk anthems.
Side A commences with the gothic, neon-soaked Miami bass of ALONZO's "Cruising with Pap," featuring sinister verses delivered by a shadowy syrup-sipping secret guest vocalist. Up next is bucking bronco NICK KLEIN's slow-mo industrial headbanger "Posture Test.” The sonic equivalent of a sweat-soaked concrete floor, it lurches along at its own mechanical pace amid the metallic hiss and howl. Lastly, wild synth lines and ethereal dubbed-out samples dart in and out over a tough, punchy rhythmic foundation in NAEEM's "TLX," an android's sci-fi electro vision gone haywire.
On the B side, HEIDI SABERTOOTH’s “Was It You” launches us deep into chugging acidic territory, combining enigmatic spoken vocals and a psychedelic, slowly evolving SH-101 line over a persuasive groove. Like a slap in the face after that comes raucous synth-punk powerhouse SSPS with “Paradise Lozt,” raw as fuck, chanting a litany of dystopian tales atop pumping drums and a wash of demented organ-like synth stabs. Finally we close with the short but powerful “New Vape City” by the nomadic DOUCE ANGOISSE - an absolute earworm, a doleful coldwave ballad whose lush production plays perfect counterpoint to the icy, deadpan sentiments within.

Another Terra Magica release is coming!
The new ‚Axisdance‘ - Various Artists (TERRAM003) double-vinyl 12″ compilation coming out this summer August/September
on Terra Magica Rec.

With Artists from all over the world such as Poly Chain, Mogwaa, Jacques Satre, Jai, DJ Normal 4, Imogen Soundsystem [Ilija Rudman and Antonio Zuza], Gee Dee, Rambal Cochet, Listensport, Johnmon
and Hektisch Sprengen DJs.

Every track has its own spirit, in a kind of a 90s journey way.
The compilation is a fascinating mixture of weird cosmic and slow goa sequences to more emotional places with powerful bassdriven downtempo techno and slightly trance influenced anthems as well as distinctive tribal acid easiness with melancholic pads and epic melodies.
Furthermore it involves faster loaded minimal hypnotic synth sounds and dark UK-House with a big-beat touch to it. Raw liquid floating sharp breaks melts into rave stompers which are inhabited by sensitive living microbes vibrating jungle atmospheres.

Multimedia artist. 
1/2 of Broken Composers
aka REBENOK

I've been crafting art installations, audio-visual performances, and music for over a decade. As part of the Broken Composers duo,  known for unique laser performances in art galleries and festivals around the globe.

With releases on labels as Disco Halal, creates dance and electronic music that goes beyond genres. His focus is on elaborate sound design and thoughtful arrangement. Despite the tracks being designed for hot dancefloors, each composition is built on rich and complex evolving arrangements. You could say it's a blend of techno and house, incorporating approaches characteristic of classical and jazz orchestral music.

Emotionally, it's based on childish curiosity and half-forgotten childhood experiences: old television, weird cartoons, low-budget movies, and acid memes all connect with hi-tech light and digital multimedia art. Using all these mediums as source material, the author creates psychedelic shorts for each track and uploads them to Instagram. During live performances, Vitali synchronizes these video samples with the music, producing a quirky audiovisual journey.
