A regular at Seoul’s ‘Cakeshop’ and member of LGBTQ collective Shade Seoul, NET GALA’s SVBKVLT debut is named after Shinpageuk (신파극), a form of theatre from 20th century Korea. In contemporary context, Shinpa is a synonym for ‘tears and overwhelming emotions,’ but when it was first introduced to Korea, Shinpa was used to express progressive political views, cover social issues, and later the melodramatic domestic tragedies. There is a vast gap between the past and current context of Shinpa, and as such there has been a lot of mistranslation or misconception between the two.

After their first EP [re:FLEX*ion] (NBDKNW – 2019), NET GALA spent time researching Shinpa, finding parallels between the work they were making and the traditional theater style. The emotional, dramatic nature of Shinpa echoed the exaggerated affection of ‘pop’ – in which NET GALA searches for the impact on one’s own narrative and emotion. The ‘mistranslation’ applied to the terms history is reflected in the changing course between the two EPs – how one can reinterpret or warp one ‘lost’ cultural concept into another.

From the stretched-out ‘The Ha Dance’ sample combined with traditional Korean percussion and 808s on ‘Shpiral’, to the sample of a Korean lesbian protester struggling to claim her existence through the blasting drums on Dodomzit, ‘신파 SHINPA’ is NET GALA’s interpretation of the Shinpageuk. The EP is packaged with remixes from Amazondotcom, ZULI and Menzi further reinterpreting the original work.

PM+ has set out a crystal-clear MO that prioritises mutant club weapons served with immediacy. Following entries from Peder Mannerfelt and Carbon 96 (Zoe McPherson and Ciarra Black), the third drop of technoid manna from this sprightly series of digital releases turns to Swedish synth scientists Pelican Company and the considerable remixing skills of Logos and ZULI. Johan Antoni and Henrik Johansson (aka Smyglyssna)’s Pelican Company manifests in expansive, highly developed soundscape gear – engrossing on its own terms but also just crying out for a wayward injection of danceability.

Logos steps up first – a bass-toting UK upstart whose meandering catalogue between Keysound, Tectonic and Different Circles leaves his options wide open as he tackles ‘Alvaret’. The end result is a twisting and tunneling dub out with ample propulsion but an overall lightness of touch which will surely appeal to the deepest of techno trippers. Egyptian wildcard ZULI takes a run at ‘Lowlife Hi-Tech Occult’, applying his maverick re-sampling verve to the rich source material and creating a staggered, cracked version which veers between coolant-soaked suspended animation and oil-slickened bass interference.

TANK Mix: ZULI

Between May 2012 and August 2013 I shared a flat in Heliopolis with 3 of my best friends. Because we were all artists, it was naturally one of the most inspiring times of my life. 

Now, there are few things in life I hate more than doing the washing up, so I cut a deal with them where I'd be in charge of doing laundry for everyone, and in return, never have to do the dishes - ever. We had this 1970s Whirlpool washing machine that used to make the most interesting sounds. 

I was hanging out in the kitchen one day waiting for it to finish and the sounds coming out of it were so rhythmic, I decided to have a go at emulating them, and that's how "Pt A" happened; I threw in an Anne Peebles sample and it became a Swag Lee beat. Of course the next step was to sample the machine using my field recorder. So I did that and made "Pt B", "Pt C" and "Pt D" (the latter revolves around clicks from twisting the machine's main knob). 

Almost a year later, I realized I had 4 finished Doing Laundry tracks, 2 of which people have only heard in my live sets. So I put them together on an EP along with an Abyusif remix of "Pt B" and - for jokes - a couple of mash-ups of some old Egyptian detergent ads.

"Nari" reportedly features four MCs (Abyusif, Mado $am, Abanob, and R-Rhyme), but you wouldn’t guess it: @zulimusic sliced, warped and recombined their disembodied contributions into a wondrously abstract tapestry of manipulated vocalisation, draped around a devastating beat and resulting in something that sounds a bit like an ’04 grime banger heard through a busted shortwave radio.

Terminal

ZULI - Nari (ft. Abyusif, Mado $am, Abanob, R-Rhyme) [UIQ]

Egyptian artist ZULI is releasing his debut album ‘Terminal’ via Lee Gamble’s UIQ imprint this November. 

The forthcoming LP has been described as a “localised and personal” project which reflects on life in ZULI’s Cairo hometown. Merging techno-inflections, grime, daunting bass-laden sounds and periods of soothing ambience, the 14-tracker is a formidable, cohesive release from a truly innovative artist.

Ahead of the project’s release, we’re delighted to be premiering cut ‘Akhbutboot’ featuring stellar Egyptian rapper Abyusif. 

‘Terminal’ lands November 2 via UIQ. Pre-order below.
