2BRĀK - Surreal Emptiness [Livejam]

@kumplabel is delighted to release the first EP by @hlm38, the naughty half of duo Ricco and member of the Notte Brigante crew from Lyon. The three original tracks, a mix of ethnic looting and industrial racket in slow motion, feel like steel wrapped in Turkish delight. @front-de-cadeaux’s take on “Illicite Cong” is reminiscent of an erotic rave flavoured with Oriental spices. Last but not least, @krisbaha slices up “Exit” like a tablier de sapeur (local Lyonnais dish) served on a julienne of syncopated samples and noisy beats.”

Second release of Positive Education's label by @jacquessatre

Blossoming from the depths of Saint-Etienne, Worst Records is proud to present the second release of its catalogue. In the right path opened by A Strange Wedding with his debut vinyl called « Meta Romance », Jacques Satre delivers with « Anatole Trance » a radical hallucinogenic journey through warped horizons of the mind. This long time member of the Positive Education crew sets up a curious yet fascinating mixture of bass-driven downtempo techno, free range acidalia and fierce sense of absurd humor. The three tracks evolve slowly, building up between litanies for wrecked concrete samples and colourful enchantment. This ambivalence results in dancefloor burning tunes that could also be the soundtrack for mesmerizing off-time afterhours. A concentrate of local wizardry that unveils once again hollow zones of the sound of Saint-Etienne.

DIRK DESAEVER - COLLECTED 1984 - 1989 (LONG PLAY)

Musique Pour La Danse is thrilled to present its latest “Collected” anthology, the label’s most ambitious release since it released an extensive anthology of music produced by New Beat pioneer Ro Maron back in 2015.

This time label managers Olivier Ducret (Muriaux, CH) and Ed Isar (Paris, FR) have focused on another essential Belgian producer: Dirk Desaever, the man behind White House White, A Thunder Orchestra and Danton’s Voice. Rare and sought after, his records fetch high prices among collectors. Some of his productions under these aliases have appeared in crucial compilations such The Sound of Belgium series as well as Walhalla’s Underground Wave, along with edits by Mick Wills for Biorythm and Marcel Dettman for Dekmantel.

What was initially supposed to be a simple reissue affair soon turned into a much wider project, as Desaever shared heaps of amazing unreleased material with the label. It seemed much more interesting to shed light on the dark side of this producer’s body of work, rather than to focus on content already reissued elsewhere.

After listening to noisy tape rips over and over, Ducret & Isar opted to break this release down in three formats (EP, LP distributed via NEWS and a cassette sold by the label direct), each one with different content. They entrusted sound engineer Lorenzo Targhetta with remastering the music and it’s impressive how much he managed to polish the sound without altering the unmistakable grain of music committed to cassette tape.

MPD015 Dirk Desaever - LP
The pièce de résistance of Collected 1984 - 1989, all the music on this LP has never been heard before, except for a single tune released on a rare 7” in 1988. The track selection and sequence is the result of Ducret & Isar closely listening to the many hours of unreleased material Desaever shared with them.

The record can be approached as an imaginary album or even the soundtrack of a lost film or TV show. The idea was to tell a story about Desaever’s music by highlighting its themes and variations. While some tunes can be imagined within a New Beat context, it’s clear they were not created with clubs in mind. In fact, most of the material here is actually closer to minimal wave, synth wave and dark wave. With a certain gothic melancholia as the common thread running through the record, some tracks can only be described as lofi library music with a strong medieval reminiscence, others are closer to the wave aesthetic, and finally a few could even be considered ambient.

Desaever’s house holds many rooms, each one different from the other. After completing a grand tour of the mansion and seeing the bigger picture, it will become clear for listeners how truly unique this producer sounds, even compared with other Belgians from the 80s. Saved from oblivion and irremediable decay, the music on this LP is now just waiting to be played and listened as well as to inspire.

HLM38 | SUBLIMINAL KID

Influential “ambassador of distant intimacy” from Tromsø, techno capital of Norway, Charlotte Bendiks releases double A-side of hypnotic techno for Matthew Herbert’s Accidental Jnr label.

“Bon-Sexy” is an eloquent expression of the deep and dark “body music” aimed directly at the dancefloor.  Boldly confident and fully present, it playfully assembles into a vibrant, passionately engaging and unapologetic temptation.
