WL//WH - JUNE 2021 // Electronic - Techno - Industrial - EBM - Ambient

Cat-No: F//022

The Illegal Future LP by INFRAVISION is the soundtrack to a (not so) imaginary future constructed with clear cyberpunk aesthetics, inspired by films like Strange Days, Blade Runner or Akira and of course by the current disturbing era.

Through their titles, lyrics and sonic palette Kendal & Pablo Bozzi channel a dystopian narrative on themes of virtual reality, police brutality, ultra-authoritarian leadership, illegal nocturnal activities, border controls, ecological crises and space colonisation.

It is their ambition to imbue the italo, EBM, early trance and breakbeat sounds of the 80s and 90s with an undeniably modern touch, making claim to their very own distinctive and powerful sound : Italo Body Music from another reality.

All tracks written, produced and mixed by Kendal Mulla & Pablo Bozzi
Vocals and lyrics on Wasteland written and performed by Alison Lewis
Mastered by Conor Dalton @ Glowcast Mastering
Artwork by Antoine La Fay - Studio Malevitch

Up to kick off 2021 in the most adequately frenzied, thoroughly corrosive fashion, DDS04 serves up a quintet of chrome-tanned, hi-velocity beats courtesy of Italian hardware fetishist Anna Funk Damage (previously heard on the likes of Mind Records, Lux Rec, Lazy Tapes and more) and Austrian-Hungarian outfit Dutch Courage - alias Superskin & Új Bála - each of whom step up to the plate to deliver an exquisitely ear-wormy slice of their deranged industrial gospel.

A-side starts off to the sound of AFD’s hard bouncin' "48 Hours Death" - a raw-cooked deluge of head-reducing EBM grit, flaring binary signals and Giallo-infused arpeggios out a blood-stained Suspirian tale. Fear for the deadly scalp hunters lurking in the club’s darkest nooks, they’ve just sniffed out your trail.

Brutal churner “Youssef” picks up the torch and pulls out the quake-inducing breaks without further ado, dressed out with languorous Orientalistic melodies and steely distortions tailored to bend mind by the dozens. Forged in the furnace, the full-out punk-minded “I Come From Fire” rounds off the side on a drum and bass-heavy note, drawing as much from 60s psych-garage as it does from 80s deconstructionist tape music.

Flip sides and here’s Budapest unit Dutch Courage taking the reins with the off-kilter treat “Hand Of The Sword” - navigating a weird zone of its own, floating astride post-apocalyptic Bristol bass, sliced-and-diced abstraction and overly textured yet equally bone-bruising riddims.

Wrapping up the journey with both force and serenity, “Neo-Soulmates” follows a similar path with its warped synth flexions and raucous machine cries making the rounds from one end of the spectrum to the other effortlessly, merging to give birth to something genetically contrasting from any contemporary. A most fitting finale to an EP that celebrates and encourages sonic bizarro in all its forms and manifestations.

Jorkes returns home with new EP 'Sodomy'. It comes with remixes from Chinaski and Man Power and artwork and photography by Daniel Rajcsanyi. 

German-born but Austria-based Jorkes has been riding high on a wave of creativity recently with notable outings on top labels Permanent Vacation and Live At Robert Johnson. They are the latest releases in a long line that mix up sensuous disco, rough-edged house music and plenty of culturally engaging sounds in between. As a result, she sits at the forefront of the underground as a DJ, promoter, producer and radio host who centers gender, queer and egalitarian issues in her work. 

Opener 'Sodomy' is a deep and steamy rhythm with whispered vocals drawing you into an intimate atmosphere. Acid lines rumble down low while blasts of synths add a stark counterpoint as the intensity grows and you find yourself riding on the crest of a rumbling techno wave. The brilliantly loose drums and percussion of 'Hotel Date' are overlaid with slick synth arps that encourage dancers to release their inner kinks. Guttural vocal sounds and dark wave vocals, the sound of spandex and lashings of acid all bring further life and energy to this sensual workout. The brilliant trio of originals closes with the loved-up 'Where Are You,' a deeper and more introspective track with synths radiating hope and happiness over romantic downtempo drums. 

'Hotel Date' gets remixed by Chinaski, a resident DJ at Robert Johnson and producer for labels like Running Back with a hooky synth sound that draws inspiration from his love of soundscapes and cinematography. He brings 80s synth vibes to his soaring and glistening future-retro disco workout. Man Power remixes 'Sodomy' and is one of the most versatile artists in the scene. The Me Me Me label head does it all from dark disco to raw techno on a tasteful range of outlets while playing the most cultured parties. Here he lays down heavy but rubbery drums that build the pressure with sensuous vocals and taught synth phrases driving home the groove. 

'Sodomy' is another dark and alluring package of salacious club sounds
