"The heart of 'Amber' is the evanescence of creativity — the fleeting nature of everything that surrounds us, everything that feels so permanent when we're growing up into adults, but that fades and disappears as we age. The spark and drive of creativity pushes artists to excel and constantly exceed their accomplishments, and with electronic music, this often pushes it into increasingly technical and concept-based areas. The material amber itself is said to clear the mind, to help develop patience and wisdom. My album, 'Amber', has acted much the same for me as a kind of reset with a focus on vibe, musicality, and patience. I mean it to be music for listening that can also work in clubs. I did not want to push or feel compelled into a particular direction, but rather each track to be a true reflection of my current creative state. This simplicity is reflected also in the bare artwork for the vinyl and album — a simple pen drawing burnt onto the cover, the last mark my grandfather committed to paper 1 week before he passed."

"In this album I was trying to explore the idea of pop music on PCP. PCP has fantastic lore around it and I think the most fascinating thing about it is that it seems as if many people have had these experiences where they took PCP, it presented them with an alternative reality, and they accepted it without question. It's as if that umbilical cord of knowing that you're high is cut, and the person taking it is fully immersed in the trip. Not only that but from some of the accounts, the alternate reality seems quite twisted and perverse. There are reports of people disemboweling and eating each other, or deciding that the best course of action is self-mutilation or castration, and then emerging from the trip still convinced it was the right choice. Or even the accounts of people gaining superhuman strength and fighting off 5 or 6 cops at once. It seems like there's something quite dark on the other side of that door. So for this album I tried to write what I imagine the pop music of that alternate reality might sound like. What would happen to the sugary sweet, wet dream, corporate sponsored top 40 hits, if we dipped 'em in angel dust and got "wet". What would happen if we slopped all of those fun summer hits into the meat grinder of the PCP reality tunnel, and just pushed them through. I like to imagine an intersection under an overpass in a cyberpunk dystopian future. It's midnight and you can see the neon's from the storefronts on the other side through the thick smog. A modded AE86 Corolla  pulls a left turn and you can hear the music pounding from the sound system as the rubber peels underneath it. As it's drifting through the intersection, smoke pouring out of the tiny gap at the top of the tinted windows, the music pours out of the car like a thick syrup, engulfing us as we stand frozen for a moment as they pass. This is what they were playing."

"This is my second ep and the one that personally cements the relationship between me and the COIDO project, 1 year after its creation.
Many listening sessions through my favorites tunes, old personal classics and mixtapes made connect the dots inside my mind.
I am now able to recognize and follow a pattern that leads to limitless creativity, divergent thinking and pure enjoyment of beats making.
With these tunes especially I’m trying to repropose my 15 years of being into bass music in a fresh new vest. No technical fuss, just trying to express what I’d love to hear on the dancefloor."

"The name says it all: these tunes are literally turbobangers.
150-160bpm was an uncharted territory for me, and after exploring the 135bpm zone for sometime I wanted to engage the second gear to go faster while keeping the previous imprint.
The result is something I’d describe as fast, raw and nervous.
Just like the old glorious 80’s Le Mans sport prototype cars that I’m obsessed with since forever.

But this ep is also the natural consequence of checking out what’s even deeper in the underground, and what I found is transposed into these 4 tracks: a journey between Hardgroove Techno, Ragga Jungle, Baltimore Shakeoff, Hardcore Rave, Favela funk and all their possible subgenres.

All this stuff that was waiting for me years is now part of my own music, my style, myself.
Finally discovered, blended and deployed with a (turbo)bang."

"Creating this record took me around 2 years, I was moving quite a bit, without a steady working or living space, travelling and playing live again for the first time since the pandemic. At first there was creative insecurity and many abandoned ideas, I wanted to make something special for YUKU but everything felt dry and soulless. In my head this was supposed to be a dancefloor record, but this idea quickly became an obstruction in my creative flow.

During this time I started learning modular synthesis, and although there was definitely a learning curve this method of making music gave the record direction and refreshed my way to approach composition. It is also very fun to learn. What came out is a collage of sorts that is more honest and reflective of my emotions and those of the people and spaces that I have exchanged with. Thanks to YUKU and the amazing people that took part in this record and in my life in the past two years. Hope you all enjoy."

"The concept of our second album was to continue the journey out of our comfort zone. We set foot in odd patterns and textures, letting ideas flow without setting ourselves any limitation. Beyond The Veil tells the story of an uncertain future, shaped by forces that are out of our control, like a voiceless menace acting as muse to humanities dark patterns. We want these tracks to make you feel like there’s no escape. We also explored working with vocals and were lucky to get Riko Dan on board. He really fits perfectly with the mood of the album.

This is perhaps our darkest and most agressive work to date. Let’s all dive deeper beyond the veil."

"This release is probably my most personal to date. I wanted to create something which flows freely whilst interconnected, that is perhaps not possible in Shorter form works. It is a story in eleven parts that focuses on exploring emotional depth; I’ve always been interested in emotion in music, which for anyone reading at a glance could sound self explanatory, but here the focus is really how an story can be told over the course of an hour and how this can then create a longer lasting impact for the listener. The tracks presented weave between a variety of different styles I’ve explored over the years, but are connected via their exploration of ecstatic sorrow and search for catharsis."

'Glory Days' by
@alanjohnsonmusic
Is out now: https://airjohnson.bandcamp.com/album/glory-days

"The ‘Glory Days’ EP marks a new chapter in the Alan Johnson output. Following sporadic releases throughout the last decade owing to a separation across different continents for both of us, we take a step forward from last year's Stillness EP - with an EP that constitutes our first release of entirely new music, since our first record back in 2013.

We have a propensity to work and sit on music for long periods of time which has previously produced complex and challenging outcomes but the last 2 years has seen a growth in our abilities to focus on refinement in our creation process, and an attempt to tell a story through more simplistic means.

The record was assembled with a vision and purpose over the last 18 months for the YUKU label specifically. It represents a shift in our existing sound, consistent through our past outputs which can be identified on some of the tracks across the record, and delivers us to a place which is influenced by a wider variety of experimentation, centred around more danceable outcomes and an air of glossy playfulness. The EP is split into two easily identifiable moods, representing a nod to a sometimes chaotic and pastiched past and a suggestive view of where the future may lie.

It's been an honour to work on an EP for the infinitely attentive and carefully crafted series of records curated by Jef and Ilda at YUKU, along with our friends at dsplaced who helped create the visual aspects of the release with us. This record is for everyone."

"When conceptual art really kicked off in the mid twentieth century, many of its protagonists were so determined to purge art of its decorative frilliness, they turned more and more towards words, or rather, lack thereof. The likes of Duchamp, Dalí, Breton, Reinhardt, each uncensored by the rational mind, made moves towards the absurd and the sublime, with varying degrees of success and failure alike.

In this piece, what one finds is the artist attempting to convey a number of things, and asking a number of questions of us as the listener; what do we seek in such art? In which ways are to be intellectually, spiritually and sexually fulfilled by its visceral and confrontational abandonment of conventions? Is it incongruous juxtaposition? Does it lead us as the audience to question ourselves as living breathing beings, our hopes and truths, and our benign tastes so often dictating our choice and free will?

The piece is a natural extension of surrealism, dadaism and indulgence, themselves often strange bedfellows. Elaborate and provocative in its execution, displaying a signature of insatiable curiosity, and leaving no stone unturned, it portrays the artist as a provocateur of postmodernism, mysticism, and decadence. It transgresses the elusive world of the subconscious more imaginatively than previous offerings. It's also a piece which stitches together the scraps of art and culture, politics and poetry, and science and exotica that could often be found in the Southport of the late-noughties and beyond. An extremely clever conceit; there could be any manner of things concealed within this record, but we as the listener will never know because as as soon as one opens the record, the art is destroyed, the value is lost, so we will never, ever find out.

One's most overriding sensation is that the piece feels like a shit-filled hand grenade which the artist has flung into our collective psyche. It is quite simply, a joke, and a very poor joke."

As Dim Fumes, bass duo Thrived and score composer No Bloom Now come together to create an exquisite blend of club sound and pop-influenced storytelling.
With numerous releases on Voitax, Club Qu and others, Thrived have proven their ability to produce fresh yet seasoned tunes, making them an integral part of Berlin's underground scene for years. No Bloom Now's work as a composer for film, theatre and games over the past few years has given him experience in writing strong themes and emotionally complex melodies.

As a band, Dim Fumes bring together the vocal points of both projects to create danceable, melancholic melodies full of euphoria. No Bloom Now's intimate vocals take centre stage,
Thrived's dense drum aesthetic builds the fundament in which the three create a melange best described as ambient bass-pop.

Their very first single, Bright Spots, can be seen as a North Star for the sonic direction the three are heading. The gnarled yet clear drum work and angelic lead vocal feel like they are embedded in a sea of lush, warm pads and atmospheres, pulling you into deep excitement. The grip and pull of this poppy but underground track won't let you go until the very end, leaving you wanting to dive right back in. With bright spots, the trio prove their ability to grab attention in private, club and/or festival contexts, presenting a combination we'll hopefully see out and about soon. Keep an eye out: Dim Fumes!

"Pathway was written in the same sessions as our last EP, Gateway. No overriding concept here, no lengthy press-release, just good, heads-down tunes.

For adventurous DJs and lovers of good music everywhere. Peace."

I am thrilled by Tom Tebby’s artwork for this release; it fits perfectly, offering a radiant response to Hesitate."

From 'TRACES': https://yukumusic.bandcamp.com/album/traces
By @coido

"The inspirations for this ep came from different moments I lived (or experienced?) during the past 6 months:
From a few but very interesting club nights out in Berlin, to my discovery of the post-dubstep movement that basically paved the way to modern genres that I'm producing now, till the tens of hours of Rinse FM (or "radio mixes" idk which better) mixes I listened to at my new workplace where I was spending most of the day alone in the gloomy winter of the city.

I usually like to put a little playful touch to my tunes, but this time I felt like I had to focus more on a darker progressive-techno sound. Maybe because my sound matured, or maybe its just a phase. I don't know, but I'll keep on following the traces that brought me here."

Get it here: https://fanlink.tv/dimfumez

The debut two-track EP from Dim Fumes allows listeners to immerse themselves in a sea of vulnerable, powerful moments. Bright Spots can be taken as the North Star for the sonic direction this new name is heading, with gnarled but clear drum work and angelic vocals that feel as though they are embedded in fields of lush, warm pads and atmospheres. Moved By You completes this debut with a delicate pop ballad, framing abstract impressionist lyrics within a nuanced and fragile soundscape.

Dim Fumes – Moved By You

Imagine a digital brutalist reinforced concrete structure interspersed with steep irregular stairs. They creak a little differently every time you step on them.

The tangle of stairs is connected by walkways that are lined with control panels with buttons, signal diodes and value indicators. This entire technology-laden structure is housed in a small garage on the outskirts of a large city in the UK.

Jef has the keys to the door.

Jef lives in Prague and calls himself oolongbru. Years ago he spray-painted a short sign on the garage. The sign looks like minimalist but sophisticated graffiti. It's reminiscent of Japan.

Garage is stuffed with futuristic bass club music, the sound of dub, grime, dub step, techno, experimental and oolongbro has an access code from it all. He's curating an exhibition that hasn't had an opening yet.

It's a cool exhibition, but it might not be for everyone.

Get it here: https://maudevos.bandcamp.com/album/5th-generation-angel

"5th Generation Angel is a sonic experience oscillating between existing in the mind and in the body. This EP was crafted during an era where I surrendered to myself. I previously have struggled with existing solely in my head. During the period these songs were created, I regularly tried to suspend the mind to sink into movement and pleasure habitually. Many of these pieces are capsules of either side of this polarity or combine moments of both, extreme feeling and thinking. I created this oeuvre, in pursuit of transformation specifically in regards to healing my relationship with myself. I found wholeness in my soul through creating vs. the inclination towards perfectionism. During the stage of production I reflected on the beauty, pain and my ability to heal past the limitations I have bestowed on myself. This record is the ascension into a realm of actualization and application.

Sonically, 5th Generation Angel holds the theme of duality, juxtaposing density and illumination, chaos and grounding, and the pain-pleasure principle. Maude conveys these polarities throughout the record with heavy bass lines, shimmering bell accompaniment, otherworldly textures, whispered vocals and apexed synth leads. Each song carries you to the next with moments of intensity and/or release. 5th Generation Angel is metaphysical, cinematic, and warehouse worthy all at once."

YUKU is an open and accepting forum of ideas, expression, and creativity that allows those who are willing to drink in the emotions and concepts being communicated—an island of experience and stimulation for the kinds of people who like to be surprised, who aren’t satisfied to hear and experience the same things time and time again, it is an oasis in the never-ending sea of digital information and consumerism.

YUKU stands as a counterpoint to contemporary arts culture and the way that it is experienced and consumed. In an age where music has been devalued to the point of performers being a list of names intended to sell tickets, impatience on the dancefloor, music being just another track in a playlist, and the visual artwork that accompanies it relegated to being a thumbnail in the corner of a player—we stand for those artists and listeners who take joy in immersing themselves in the worlds and journeys that are created by those who create.

"Since our debut release on YUKU, our perspective about the many creative possibilities open to us has evolved.

With “MAKTUB,” meaning “It’s written,” we're clearly stating that it's time to dive deeper into our musical ethos and production. It represents a significant step in our self-discovery, and a big step forward from the debut EP.

On this sonic architect project, we managed to make a strong cross-Atlantic connection with the various features on this LP and make geographical boundaries evaporate.

This genre-fusion release was formed in pure isolation and solitude from all sides, but the final outcome brings a feeling of even stronger unity within TRAKA, and also at same time preserves our personal individual creative identities."
