Ahead of the release of a full length album by the same title, Honey Soundsystem records presents 3 breakout tracks on 12" vinyl from Octo Octa's "Where Are We Going?". Side A features the "new school" breaks pumper "Move On (Let Go) (De-Stress Mix) and the peak-time synth-heavy tear-jerker "On Your Lips." On the flip we share the 9 and a half minute aquatic house opus "Where Are We Going? Pt. 2"      

“Do you feel better?” — is the line Maya Bouldry-Morrison aka Octo Octa repeats like a mantra on the final track of “Where Are We Going?” her newest and second studio LP. “It was the question every single person asked me after coming out as transgender,” she told us “Overall I do, but no, I don’t feel better at every moment, which is why the track slips out with a dour bass drone in addition to a beautiful pad. These days, both emotions are ever-present for me.” It is precisely this candor and intensity that immediately drew us in when Maya sent over the LP to consider for the Honey Soundsystem label. As DJs we are always looking for music that can speak in our sets, not just the highest caliber productions, but songs that represent the changing landscape of the queer dance-floor. “Where Are We Going?” reads like a diary. With track titles like “No More Pain (Promises To A Younger Self)” and “Move On (Let Go) (De-stress Mix)” you can’t avoid the autobiographical messages of these songs, but Maya leaves no booty un-shaken - this is still 9 four-to-the-floor house and techno beauties to rock your body. Her willingness to even model for the cover art of this LP, proved this is a side to Octo Octa we've never seen or heard before, an artist ready to let her fans experience an intimacy as deep as the synths and lead lines she has gained notoriety for. Applying her years of international DJ’ing, this album flows with intention and has effortlessly found its way back into our headphones and home stereo systems repeatedly - Pro-tip: you can even have sex to it. Needless to say this is the first time in a decade Honey Soundsystem has thrown itself at a contemporary LP and we know once you hear it, you will know where we are going…

On Top (The Mountain)

PREMIERE:// AceMoMa - On Top (The Mountain)

Detente (detente11)is releasing his latest project Life Is Life via Belgian label Slagwerk. The album explores themes of finding comfort and acceptance through fragility and passage of time.
With a sonic palette showing sensibility to acoustic instruments the 10 tracks sounds like a blend of Terrence Malick contemplative state and a tender-hearted pastel memento mori.
An echo feeling of intimacy and vague remoteness.

Why Be - Dragged with Elias Rønnenfelt [YGK013]

prod @degenerate69 and @blackwinterwells
mixed by @blackwinterwells

there was a time once i thought i could be like you
you should have seen it
all of the meaning in all of what i can't do anymore

there was a time once that i believed in you
thought you would keep me safe from my weaknesses when i'd speak to you

burn it out in the sun alone
fix my body fix my soul
pour the fever from my pores
oh i'm better on my own
cause i know what i'm like on the inside
i should know the way i can make it right
but i don't and i'm warm and terrified
it just feels like a bad dream

and i don't know what's happening
and i don't know what happened to me
and i don't know how i can be clean again
think the dirt settled in way too deep
let it into the rest of me
and i give all the best of me too
i don't like what is left of me
i don't know what is left here to do

..and i don't know what happened to me
no i don't know what happened to me
there was a time once that i believed in you

Welcome to ArtistWorld.

This is a collection of 33 soundworks composed entirely of field-recorded audio.

Once you start to see this krazy little life of ours through the eyes of an artist, you will observe that all perceivable matter and energy constitutes art. Once the artmind is adopted, every wall turns to a canvas, every pencil transmorphs to a paintbrush, and every piece of fine art becomes even more artistic because it is now doubly artful. When you listen to and maybe purchase this Madjestic Kasual-hosted field recording compilation for money, you are inside of ArtistWorld. In ArtistWorld, you are Artist. You are Art. ArtistWorld is a place where you are Artist and Art.

Our soulfelt thanks go to all this compilation's contributors, and to those who voluntarily pay money to purchase this otherwise freely available compilation. Should you choose to download this for free, you are also thanked, but a bit less.
