IM092 - @bonebrokk - The Astral Catalyst
Label: Infinite Machine
Release Date: July 30th,2021
Format: Digital

A new signee to Infinite Machine, Bonebrokk’s The Astral Catalyst EP marks his first official release for the Athens-based producer outside of his Trial & Error imprint. Influenced by late capitalism and sci-fi dystopias, across two productions Bonebrokk deftly showcases his ‘ExoPunk’ sound; a retrofuturist mix of broken beats from the continuum blended with meticulous, future-facing sound design. Long-standing IM alumni Galtier as well as techno giant Surgeon round off the release with two blistering remixes of Bonebrokk’s originals.

The Astral Catalyst opens with the EP’s eponymous track - an heady dose of industrial percussion and low-end bassweight that could easily shake the paint off a club’s walls. Amongst these dense layers of clattering percussion and dread-laiden bass lines, Bonebrokk weaves in haunting cycles of noisy feedback - a dissonant ghost in the machine.

The following track, Hyperparadox, eases up on the bass somewhat but goes big on the breaks. The track’s mid-range groans and samples that seem to squelch like shoes hitting mud gives Hyperparadox an almost tactile and material nature; as if you could physically sink your teeth into Bonebrokk’s rich arrangement here.

First up on remix duties; UK dance music giant Surgeon reworks The Astral Catalyst into a 3am fever dream, taking Bonebrokk’s original into a more functional techno direction. Surgeon applies a heavy, groove-laden drum pattern to the track whilst still keeping its unnerving mood and white noise-rich environment of The Astral Catalyst very much intact.

Closing off the EP, Galtier reworks Hyperparadox by stripping back some of the layers of samples but ramping up the tension with the elements he leaves in the mix. A great prelude to a bigger body of work by Galtier that Infinite Machine will be releasing soon.

A wild blend of dubstep and breakbeats that could easily re-soundtrack a nightclub scene from The Matrix, this might be the first but it’s certainly not the last time you’ll be hearing Bonebrokk’s unique sound

Ujstin Echno - Running On Envy (Glazmo Mix)

Este EP representa el fin de una etapa, todo lo aprendido después de 5 años de vivir en Buenos Aires, a nivel artístico y personal. Tocar fondo para resurgir en otra forma y regresar a las sierras para volver a encontrar la calma.

Es un trabajo complejo que tiene mucha catarsis en su interior. De pronto se plasma también el comienzo de algo distinto, como un puente entre lo viejo y lo nuevo que uno transita en la vida.

ROOi - Mañanas

The Nostro Hood System summons forth it’s second full-length album from Berlin-based Eduardo Pesole, titled ‘Botanical Garden’. Taking influence from a beloved flower species, Eduardo takes the name ‘Hypocyrta Glabra’. Bringing a wealth of knowledge from an instrumental background, morphing further into sound engineering and composition for both short film, fashion and interactive media & video games, the sparse influences and practices result in a oblique approach to electronic music that takes form as fluid, organismal growths of xeno origin to that of earth.

We see the vision for the album germinate: ‘After 2 years of wandering through videogame sound design, abstract ambient live performances and improvisations, and the Berlin club scene I decided to synthesize my journey into music with this record, the botanical garden in berlin has been my peaceful oasis in which I could escape from the mess of the city and with the years passing this became a ritual, tripping at the botanical garden to reconnect myself with nature and escape the city. In a way composing this album has been the same thing, escaping from the boredom of the daily routine after being impacted by a lay off from the gaming industry. The composition process became a playful and peaceful ritual to escape from bad places of my mind and reconnect to my true self, finally I had time to nourish to my true essence.’

Our artist realizes a world that wholly occupies the NHS galaxy: ‘Each year, the inhabitants of planet BLIN journey to a place forbidden to all others: The botanical garden. this is the sole location on the planet where life still springs forth from seeds, water, sunlight and the lunar cycle. Yet, for this to occur, those who still posses knowledge of the ancient botanical techniques (a small group passing down these generational skills) must initiate a ritual wherein the old world and the new are able to coexist. The soil, no longer soil becomes fertile, the water, no longer water, becomes nourishment. it is the most primordial ritual in existence. None are permitted to observe the act of generation, yet all who have survived the new world shall, for the remainder of the year, partake of its fruits.’

Across the entire collection, an effervescent spirit of youth and life springs out, bubbling through the feverish palette of sounds, primarily propagated via granular synthesis and resampling techniques. The overarching intention takes form as a ‘digital forest’, channelling the chaos of nature through computerised, alien-like aesthetics and structures that are constantly evolving and re-forming, like sped up evolution occurring before your ears.
