Two times 45 minutes of original music by Cloudface and Powder. All recorded in Tokyo, Japan in early 2016. Brought to you on a C90 cream colored cassette by wichelroede.

We met Cloudface in 2015 at the Rewire Festival in The Hague, and spoke about the idea of working together. We stayed in touch, and in March 2016 the Vancouver artist went to visit Tokyo in search for new equipment and synthesizers. During this trip Cloudface performed a live set at INS Studio, Shibuya, where resident producer Powder (Moko Shibata) joined him during that late evening to play live as well.

Cloudface and Powder teamed up again, now for a wichelroede tape release. The recording of Cloudface’s live set from that special event covers side A (Dogen-zaka refers to the neighborhood where INS is located), while Powder takes on the B-side with previously unreleased tracks, presented here to you as an ongoing mix.

No need to describe how this sounds – If you are looking for exciting new electronic music, this is it! With releases on Mood Hut and Going Good, Cloudface has proven his singular sound within the ever growing electronic landscapes, while Powder can without any doubt be considered as one of the breakthrough artists of this year.

“Dogen-zaka MIX / 88QQ99II11” comes packed with a white cotton tote bag screen printed in four colors designed by Fallon, which is exclusively available with the tape. As always, the tape and goodie are vacuum sealed in a transparent A5 plastic bag.

Cloudface / Powder – “Dogen-zaka MIX / 88QQ99II11” is exclusively released on cassette tape.

Cloudface / Powder — Dogen-zaka MIX / 88QQ99II11 (Sneak Peek Versions)

Three years ago we started publishing mixes online on wichelroede.net. As we like to work on ways to connect music with design, last year (2015) we began developing our first physical product. The result is this mixtape, a collaboration between Beatrice Dillon, Ben UFO, and wichelroede. Initial released in February of this year, the tape immediately was sold out. After a second run in April, together with the artists we’ve now decided to release both mixes online as stream and free download.

Side A is a mix by Beatrice, side B is a mix by Ben. The London residents recorded two forty-five (times two equals ninety) minute mixes which are beautifully complimentary while still surprising. Both mixes consist of an outstanding selection ranging between electronics, dub, reggae, jazz, ambient, techno, and house. The ‘sleeve’ and on body-print of the cassette tape is designed by Fallon.

We only have a handful left of this release in our webshop. These are the final copies! Get yours via https://shop.wichelroede.net/collections/tapes.

CS + Kreme / Yu Su — “Roast Ghost / Little Forest”

An ambient-ambiance tape experience by two promising new acts from different sides of P-Earth.

With their self-titled debut last year on Total Stasis, CS + Kreme’s leftfield, ambient pop took us by surprise and turned out to become one of our favorite, rinsed home-records from 2016. With a handful of gigs so far exclusively in the open air of Melbourne, the duo, consisting of Conrad Standish and Samuel Karmel (also part of F Ingers), team up again for this release to jam together a bubbly, hypnotizing lullaby before venturing off into a warped dreamscape around the 10 minute mark. On the B-side Vancouver-via-Kaifeng resident Yu Su cleanses the body, mind, and soul with Little Forest. Yu, one-half of You’re Me who previously released Plant Cell Division, combines beautiful snares, easy-going percussion, lush synths, and downtempo beats with a clear message: Chill-out...

Tracklist:

A. CS + Kreme — Roast Ghost (Ultra Lavender Mix) @cs-kreme
B. Yu Su — Little Forest (Spring Mix) @bb-yu

This release contains a limited C45 dark clear pro-dubbed cassette tape, two stickers and a FIY (fold it yourself) sleeve. Everything vacuum sealed together in a transparant plastic bag.

Music by CS + Kreme and Yu Su. Flute by Ela Stiles. Mastered by Brandon Hocura. Artwork and design by Fallon. Idea and production by wichelroede. Released on Monday June 5th 2017.
