Gaul Plus returns from harvest to present his weathered new single, "Mercury Fountain" featuring a long-revered spiritual guide, Japan's beloved POiSON GiRL FRiEND. We're thrilled to share this special collaboration, which will feature prominently on his upcoming EP on Rank+File, "Hissing Nest". He had this to say about the symbiotic union:

"Over a span of 10 or more years, and as many trips, I (we) have been buying spirit-driven noise records on the 20th floor of apartment buildings (across from crematoriums generally) asking panther-eyed doms which Provoke photographer ordered which drink and how many, or following the architecture of Angel Dust, walking beneath the interlocking armored whale spines, trying to understand how the same artist could have produced both a hit city-pop record and another that sounded like burning chrome swirling in miso soup. These are just a few of the millions of threads that hold my Borghesian path together; the path of the pilgrim rather than the tourist. Although it has no end, it certainly has its vista points, and few, if any, have elicited more joyous contemplation than the point of intersection with Noriko, someone whose records have drawn every shade of emotion out of me; whether a tall grass field I’ve sat in, or a half bursted bubble that nearly took my head off. To hear her voice drifting through the dusty corridors of this drum pattern, eternally tip-toeing just outside this wonked-up whirlpool, is beyond honorifics for me. It is truly the sense of life, and I am so grateful for it."

A Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamic System [SB002]

Description:

I first heard the term "A Non-Equilibrium Thermodynamic System" in a book found in an old junk shop in Manchester city centre for 2 quid. Its describes humans as systems constantly battling the entropy and world’s challenges around us in order to survive:

"While this is true, we are also systems that work together. We think, learn, grow, and create beautiful things like art and music. I love this contrast. There are many similar contrasts in the spaces we inhabit: day and night, love and hate, going to bed at 9 p.m. or 9 a.m.”

CEM - FORMA 
Cat. Nr: DN031
Format: Digital / Transparent LP 
Release Date: 28 March, 2025
Buy / stream: dansenoire.ffm.to/cem

CEM has gained international notoriety over the past years for bewitching club and festival audiences alike with his feverish, polymorphic and richly referential DJ sets. For his debut full-length album, FORMA, the Berlin-based Herrensauna founder momentarily departs the dancefl oor, instead contributing a refl ective and at times menacing compositional study on terror and temporal anachronism for our perplexing times. All six pieces were originally commissioned to accompany Portuguese artist Mauro Ventura’s performative installation of the same name, shown fi rst at the Volksbühne in 2022; the work engaged notions of labor and repetition through a multiplicity of gestural and corporeal interventions. Featured prominently on FORMA are the sound of bells—doorbells, meditative bowls, farm cowbells, Shinto bells—a motif CEM distills repeatedly onto the record to presage and work through both the violent specter of order and discipline, as well as the reparative qualities of harmony and retreat.
Opening the album with poignant synths, granulated bell hits, and double bass string drones is “The Calling”, which summons listeners into a rattling and twisting soundscape that dichotomously channels alertness and serenity at once. “Bells Corrupt”, in turn, transforms the comforting chime of bells into an alarming and insistent pattern as it evolves in pitch and form, recalling the anxious fi lm grammar of Italian giallo legends Lucio Fulci and Dario Argento or Czech animator Jan Švankmajer. “An Industrial Satire” is conceived as an homage to experimentalist Limpe Fuchs, known for her Dadaist use of self-made, metallic instruments and strings. The second part of the piece takes a staggering turn with the addition of ghaita—a Northern Moroccan double reed horn with a series of holes—sampled from the Master Musicians of Joujouka’s collaborative 1971 album with Brian Jones and layered alongside CEM’s own percussion work. The horn elements—linked to the ancient fertility rites of Pan—here culminate in a melodic embodiment of panic and celebration. “Statue Garden” is a minimalist organ drone piece interlaced with fi eld recordings accumulated through the musician’s recent travels across East Asia. Its dexterous balance of stillness and depth provides a contemplative interlude amidst the album’s vigour. The album closes on a provocative note with “The Sincerity Test” that features Berlin-based Lithuanian performance artist Gertrūda Gilytė, whose wry spoken-word intervention mirrors the kind of grotesque, deluded ‘positive affirmations’ that abounds on social media, suggesting a relatedness between narcissistic online speak and the rise of reactionary politics.

CEM is no stranger to the ever-threatening past and present of fascism, having been raised in Vienna within a Turkish-Kurdish immigrant household. FORMA thus emerges as a militant sonic offering and, through its razor-sharp interweaving of atmosphere and texture, conjures a fractured, albeit elegiac, space of possibility wherein time is out of joint and the circular motion of history with a capital H is dizzyingly thrown into disarray. As our world rushes forward into the past, casting dissonant spells might turn out to be our last rempart.

Forma is a series of action painting performances founded and directed by Mauro Ventura with movement direction by the choreographer Kiani del Valle

𝑷𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒆𝒓𝒆: Abo Abo - Biotite [ALC011]

Two resonant voices from Florence’s underground converge in this powerful collaboration between Abo Abo (Daniele Carcassi) and TOMO (Tommaso Andorlini) — The co-founders of the DE RIO collective and record label both deeply rooted and active in Italy’s experimental electronic scene well known for pushing the limits of tribe and mental sound presents their first LP on the Brussels based imprint and collective Alliance.
Abo Abo’s multifaceted practice moves fluidly between clubs, theaters, and DIY spaces, blending academic machinery with raw underground energy that oscillates between precision and chaos. Whether through DJ sets, performances, or installations, Abo Abo treats sound as a living, evolving material — a fluid architecture shaped by space and raw impulse he explores as a territory in constant mutation.
TOMO brings a vision shaped by fast-paced rhythms, glitch minimalism, and tactile sound design. His sets are deeply physical, polyrhythmic journeys where IDM, deep techno, trance and post-tribal textures bleed into one another. Every element in his sonic landscape pulses with tension — somatic, spectral, alive.
Together, they craft an immersive, borderless language where loop-driven hypnosis meets granular abstraction. This LP on Alliance Club bridges their worlds: club energy and sound research, intuition and structure — vibrating between movement and stillness.
