der britische ausnahmeproduzent darren daz cunningham, besser bekannt als actress oder neuerdings azd (acid ausgesprochen) ist mit einem neuen album auf ninja tune zurück! spätestens seit seinem 2014 veröffentlichten album ghettoville welches auf dem von ihm mitbegründeten ninja tune sublabel werkdiscs erschien wird er als einer der größten innovatoren elektronischer musik gehandelt. das album vereint komplexität spielend mit eleganz und verschmelzt zusammenhanglose wortkonstruktionen und elektronische klangwelten mit hilfe neuester ghetto cut up technologie. cunningham selbst beschreibt das neue album als non dance based civillian mind groove, mapped to an external soul beyond the collapsing black hole…music is chaos r.i.p music

first up is dankles *isabigting*. dankle has been steadily making a name for himself over the past couple of years, as part of offmenut records, for his solo production and as one half of phatworld, alongside tich from the squire of gothos. *isabigting* is straight up mutant bassline, with his warped, glass-like bass and hip-hop vocal.

the ninth release on the dsr-c series comes from rhine. a new name with his roots in atmospheric techno steps up for his first solo ep.the ninth release on the dsr-c series comes from rhine. a new name with his roots in atmospheric techno steps up for his first solo ep. de storm opens the account with a loose collage of textured drums and scuffed-up synths. it makes for a bubbly groove that journeys far off into the night while de bron is more rooted underground, with cavernous echo chambers run through by supple bass synths and icy hi hat trails. spooky and haunting, its a track to send shivers down your spine. last of all, het meer is a watery affair, with aqueous drips and drops, radiant pads and then more tightly coiled drums brushing up against one another to make for something atmospheric but also nicely driven. all three tracks are characterised by a rather tender and reflective mood that makes them all the more unique.

femur s second release goes deeper into totally unsettling, dark and gloomy sounds. this time with one of our most valued fellow artists celldöd. we are proud to press the track -terrorbalans- for the first time on vinyl. it had been previously released on cassette by celldöd himself on his own platform brutal disciplin. he has also included two unreleased tracks, the machine-like -svart sira- and -socker-, dirtier and naughtier. the closure to this second reference is a magnificent remix by swedish duo fishermen, originally released on brutal disciplin, too.

obwohl die letzte kompakt-offerte aus dem studio der legendären russichen synthesizeristen scsi-9 schon eine weile zurückliegt – 2008, um genau zu sein, mit dem album “easy as down” (kompakt cd 068) -, hat co-gründer und techno/house-virtuose anton kubikov nicht auf der faulen haut geaalt, sondern sein eigenes label pro-tez records gepflegt – und eine karriere als solo-künstler mit klarem drang zur verdubbten tonlandschaft und ambient-musik in die wege geleitet. whatness ist seine erste solo-album-veröffentlichung unter eigenem namen und webt einen luftigen wie schillernden klangteppich, der genau da weitermacht, wo kubikovs exzellente beiträge zu unserer pop ambient compilation-reihe aufgehört haben. anton kubikovs besonderes ohr für ambientes und tonale räume war schon immer integraler bestandteil von scsi-9s musikalischer dna, die gerne zwischen fokussierter tanzathletik und ausufernden melodieräumen changiert – doch erst als solo-künstler macht er sich daran, diese räume wirklich auszuloten und geheimnisvollen klangspuren in neblige, hallende gegenden zu folgen. kubikovs gastspiele auf mehreren ausgaben unserer pop ambient-serie deuteten auf ein vielverprechendes neues projekt im talentpool hin – ein versprechen, das mit dem mitreissenden klangbad von whatness mehr als erfüllt wird.

grandi successi is a project by angelo sindaco and maurizio carli moretti with guests like raime drummer valentina magaletti, soft moon matteo vallicelli, impro-avant combo starfuckers, jonathan clancy (singer of his clancyness) plus contemporary artist claudio corsello and writer-performer emidio clementi. angelo sindaco started producing electronic industrial music on tape in the mid 80 and dark techno during the nineties, releasing albums for acv, minus habens, eukatech and more. he has been the first techno dj in bologna (italy) at link club sharing decks with underground resistance, aphex twin, theo parrish and many others. maurizio carli moretti started djing in 1981 opening for killing joke and contorsions acts and then performing in clubs and art galleries mixing dark wave and electronic music

variations on memory is an ongoing project by max schreiber, who records memorial day songs intuitively, the way they were carved in his own memory. schreiber takes the national memory to the most personal place and creates his own interpretations of the classic songs. the songs are usually recorded in one session. the final outcome, with its off-keys and inaccuracies, gives a new meaning to these memorial songs, and formulates imaginative soundtracks to hebrew horror movies.

a1 is a deeply psychotic acid death march into confusion, so minimal and primitive (kick, snare, acidsquelch) it will challenge every beard and armpit and might even hypnotize the dj to the point he cannot mix in the next one. a2 is a straight up commodore 64 sid track with mongoloid data elephants tooting over a wobbly and tarded electroish beat. b1 is a dystopic dreamy rave stomper, starting out kinda datacuddly but gets more and more serious, with choirs of fable mooers taking you into that virtual bad trip you need. b2 continues as expected with more c64 sid madness, so snary i cant even determine if its in 115 or 230bpm.

first time on vinyl expanded reissue of 2001 s we are eyes, we are builders by brooklyn s (now relocated to l.a.) soviet. originally released on plastiq musiq on cd and later reissued on tape in 2011 and cd in 2003, it is a synth pop masterpiece of the highest caliber. in uenced by all the greats, soviet s rst album is a shining star distinguishing itself from the electroclash movement of the time. beautiful, warm new romantic pop songs occupy this double lp and will certainly appeal to fans of early dare era human league and depeche mode s a broken frame. side d features 5 previously unreleased tracks. remastered for vinyl by martin bowes at the cage, uk.

fashion flesh is the solo-output moniker of john talaga, based in bay city, usa, whose music first came to our attention back in 2016 with the release of an excellent 7-inch on detroit s est. 83 records. he should have been in the radiophonic workshop, but he was in the wrong place, wrong decade. instead, withdrawn comes as his first full-length album and makes up for the perfect introduction to talaga s synthesis of original and plasticized melodic collages, birthed from the guts of hand built exotic electronics and various audio devices — built from one s own design and heavily modified beyond audible recognition or return. from torn memories of pleasant dreams to plasticine free jazz sculptures, wavey electro cuts squealing like rubber tyres and pop hallucinations, fashion flesh highlights the beauty of confusion and anxiety throughout the breathing and illusive meanderings of his tape manipulations and hard copy cut-ups.

re-release! black truffle is honoured to present the premier recordings of two recent works by legendary american experimental composer alvin lucier. a friend and contemporary of pioneers like robert ashley, david behrman, gordon mumma, and christian wolff, lucier has been crafting elegant explorations of the behavior of sound in physical space since the 1960s. lucier is perhaps best known for i am sitting in a room (1970), in which he repeatedly re-recorded his own speaking voice being played back into a room until the room’s resonant frequencies entirely obscure the spoken text. beginning in the early 1970s, he has written a remarkable catalogue of instrumental works that focus on phenomena produced by the interference between closely tuned pitches, such as audible beating, often using pure electronic tones produced by oscillators in combination with single instruments.

classic lp - ltd re-issue !!

british producer portrait (aka south london ordnance) & somne collaborate on new imprint - aura dinamica. the inaugural release arrives courtesy of the duo themselves with speed, noise, machinery & the city. born out of a series of particularly productive, fast-paced collaborative sessions in berlin, the three track ep draws on the spirit of classic plastikman & basic channel, eschewing greyscale linearity in favour of high-energy emotive leads, rich texture & groove -with moments of heads-down introspection enjoying as much space as outright dance floor fervour.

lab personnel is a very intriguing collaboration between a number of producers hailing from croatia. members include zarkoff (member of sumerian fleet), neon lies, ikonal many more (total eight members). the tracks were recorded during synth lab 4 improvisational sessions in pisak in 2017. the album is a dense and stormy affair overall with mesmerizing and dark synths. the styles presented drift between genres including acid techno, electro, ebm, and other hybrids. all instrumental, the lp is a brooding journey into diverse techno soundscapes with eight strong tracks that will not disappoint.

row goes back to a collecting of field recordings that hirsch took for oerol, an annual theatre festival taking place on the west frisian island of terschelling / nl. the recording was taken aboard the arad, a lifeboat of the dutch rowing team roeiteam ter- schelling recreatie during a training exercise on 25 april 2011. the course stretched from the harbour of west-terschelling out into the wadden sea and back again. the focus is on the coxswain’s commands which resemble a funk singer’s ones and which make the team become one body working their way through the waters.

&#8203,,&#8203,,introducing paris-based contemporary sculptor and music maker erwan sene joining the exponential unknown precept roster. gathering pieces thought of as little narratives for his debut release, not without a bit french irony around the concept of work, i heard you laughing wavers towards mechanical repetition and something more outdated at times. purposely slowing down the tempo to fit the apparent redundancy of an industrial environment and its steadily running engines. an eroded atmosphere of sorts, analogous to the smokestacks emanating from factory chimneys. accentuating the ambiguity of a wild thought which is hard to grasp. despite its machine-driven aspect, sene primary questions the difficulty to manage one s life stuck in a primitive mindset, making intuitive associations in a grid pattern. carbon copy music for the tangled minds out there, leaving room for nothing but sedated feelings.
