GRILLED METADATA

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

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

++ PRESENTATION ++

Club Late Music & Over My Body team up for a joint release! Welcome Apex Union, a split EP featuring Bungalovv & Lujiachi with remixes by B E N N, Dj Animebby, DJ Würm & jondu.

The release initiates the new CLM collaborative series called SPLIT - a simple format where one member from the Global URL Nation shares an EP with an artist from another label or collective, and also marks the first official collaboration of young Taiwan-based Over My Body with another label! This joint collab is pretty straightforward : two artists, two tracks each and remixes by members of both collectives. 

Over the past few years, Bungalovv and Lujiachi have affirmed and cultivated unique sonic palettes that seduced local and international scenes alike. Their encounter on Apex Union initiates a dialog, a weaving of their extended footprints where throbbing basses intertwine with piercing noises, sharp percussions and spiraling voices - resulting in four tracks that will shred, tear and enchant the firmest minds and the stiffest bodies.

The original tracks are reinterpreted by B E N N & jondu from the Over My Body roster, as well as Dj Würm and Dj Animebby from the GUN community, extracting the core essence of the originals to infuse them with raw flavors, that will perfectly soundtrack the haziest cave raves and bleakest winter nightwalks.

Ujstin Echno - Running On Envy (Glazmo Mix)

"La révolution biologique ne passe plus par une quelconque médiation rationnelle, par aucune politique possible. Il ne s'agit plus de discuter sur des questions de distribution, sur des arguments de richesse ou de pauvreté, sur la moralité d'expropriateurs ou d'expro-priés, quand il n'y a plus personne qui vive vraiment, quand tous, indifféremment, risquent de mourir. Ceci est la connaissance simple et terrible qui serpente rapidemment partout, et dont nous voyons chaque jour exploser, toujours plus fréquents et plus proches, encore espacés pour peu de temps, les incendies. C'est la matrice d'une révolte indomptable et irrécupérable. Plus aucune contre-révolution ne pourra transformer la puissance de la négation en énergie de reproduction positive ; plus aucune contre-révolution ne trouvera l'espace nécessaire à ses automatismes intégrateurs, lorsque chacun aura compris jusqu'au bout qu'il n'y a plus rien à comprendre sinon que c'est ainsi qu'on meurt. Et de cela les ultimes puissants ont une juste terreur. C'est pour cela que les plus astucieux parmi eux liquident prestement leur figure d'omniscients, soldent en gros autocritiques et contrition : pour rendre crédible l'ultime contre-révolution - mais elle est déjà perdue au départ, celle qui sonne le rappel de tous les fidèles de la Sainte Famille, tandis qu'elle ouvre le feu sur les ennemis du « progrès » repérés un par un par les mémoires électroniques des équipes politiques."

An homage to the great late and much loved Jacques Camatte
