joe powers is from edinburgh. far outside the network of the grime capital of london. his caffeinated productions as proc fiskal are faster than usual. with many clocking in at 160bpm. ‘the highland mob’. his 2017 debut ep. opened up his music to open-eared footwork and drum’n’bass fans as well as the grime crowd. after following that up with a jungle-inflected ep on cosmic bridge. ‘insula’ switches the feel and intention towards a personal. and melodic music with one foot in grime. infused with often comic. often wistful recorded moments from his environment. he says ‘i wanted to be aware of where the music is coming from. referencing things i’m presently experiencing. like making grime. my radar radio show. phone addiction. alcohol. my surroundings. girls. depression. positivity. being unemployed. being employed and hating it. my friends etc. trying to be true to myself instead of relying on other peoples’ nostalgia. and focusing on now.’ the record is a huge leap in vision. with delicate. pointillist melodies and intricate edits reminiscent of grime producers such as terror danjah. it also resonates with japanese video game music like that recently explored on the ‘diggin in the carts’ compilation. ‘i think i probably make tunes to get out emotions i don’t express in day-to-day life. i used clips of my friends talking. drunk folk. and general scottish life to preserve and represent what my experience is like right now. like a time capsule. social media notification sounds are designed to release serotonin. which is what i’d like my music to do. to make me. and other people happy. and in using these manipulative noises in a positive way. i like to think i’m taking back the power of the manipulation.’ proc fiskal is adventurous and thoughtful as a producer. and at the young age of 21. his debut album is very advanced in its ideas and execution

third longplayer from brooklyn based experimental post-punk trio the dreebs. consisting of eight songs and seven instrumentals.

emile facey (plant43) has been at the forefront of electronic for more than twelve years. during that time the british producer has released on a host of seminal labels. expanding his style and sound in new directions. although plant43 is typically classified as a purveyor of electro. behind those driving rhythms and steely percussion a tenderness has always been present. an emotion expressed in lilting melodies and complex harmonies. it is these melodies and harmonies that come into focus on plant43s debut ambient album. on from deep streams is a rich and textured tapestry of synth work. a soundtrack that organically unfurls from nightime woodland walks and city stargazing to mindful solitude. the eight tracks offer the listener a calming journey into stillness. an excursion through gentle audio currents and a moment to pause and take in an inspiring vista of sound. recorded over the space of 3 months. this album gives the quiet. the subtle and the sometimes underappreciated centre stage whilst casting light on yet another side of emile faceys ever-evolving musi

zuli’s new offering trigger finger is a game of shadowy atmospheres and unquiet spirits. it functions as a spacial and temporal compactor. using sampling and field recordings to reconstruct reality’s dissonance. while at the same time reverse its own introspective character into bass weight and outworked tension. a kind of extremization of zuli’s own roots as a beatmaker for the cairo rap scene. tinged with the clandestine and delirious urbanism of grime and jungle. and fronted by the necessity to face its own dark side. but the dark and crusty sonic palette does not limit the possibility for the tracks to display various layers of emotional content.

gaining traction. gaining speed. the primaeval ritual reaches its boiling point. melting the borders of mind and flesh: a turgid vortex of unstable potential. constantly mutating and morphing itself. unformed and unstructured morphogenetic flows of matter-energy-information. self-organizing processes constituting a veritable non-organic life: the body without organs. that glacial reality where the alluvions. sedimentations. coagulations. foldings. and recoilings that compose an organism occur. a motherly womb detonating hydrogen bombs in her prefrontal cervix. atomizing the doors of perception with sheer gargantuan sonic tremor.

jaars other people is pleased to present a new solo record of guitar and live custom electronics artist patrick higgins. an american avant-garde composer and producer from new york city. higgins is known for his work in experimental and contemporary classical music. playing guitar and composing in the mythical avant-noise-jazz ensemble zs. his solo work as a composer unites european avant-garde forms with the post-minimalist howl of new york. his upcoming release on other people. dossier. is a four-movement piece performed live without overdubs or edits. all of the samples and synthetic patches were custom built and specifically engaged to become elements of live guitar manipulation. the sound world is post-apocalyptic in spirit but builds to an intimate and reflective end. the material was developed over a two-year period and finalized at the end of 2016. cover art is by alfredo jaar.

fresh on francis harris kingdoms imprint comes rasmus junckers ‘ophold - six tracks of sublime atmospheres and textures. the danish musician. sound composer and dj fits perfectly with the labels aesthetic. joining the dots between ambient. leftfield electronica and modern classical. juncker has a background in studying jazz drumming and has been playing improvised music within the jazz domain for many years. he also started to dj at the age of 14 and was introduced to the world of electronic music production at the same time. when rasmus started to think about his debut album he spent several months trying to find his own way to combine his favourite musical influences. improvisation. electronics and classical music. almost a year later. juncker says. i went to a sensory deprivation floating tank in copenhagen while researching for another performance and while i was lying there. floating in the water. deprived from most of my senses. i got the idea to do something drastic in my musical process. philosophers like immanuel kant describe this deprived state as a mental cesura. which became some sort of guideline for the album.

max loderbauer. who has so far made consistently engaging contributions to the arjunamusic family. is back to lend his unique interpretive skills to the master recordings for the brightbird album by joão paulo esteves da silva. mário franco and samuel rohrer. loderbauer has set himself up for a challenge. since the original album’s completely improvised flow of small-ensemble. conversational jazz feels complete enough without outside intervention. however. loderbauer’s role as electronics operator in the similarly attuned ambiq trio has already shown that. through his mastery of tone color. he has a talent for teasing out the additional hidden details within an apparently ‘complete’ sonic environment. it’s a task he manages to accomplish without ever overriding or contradicting the cohesive message provided by his collaborators.

with »redsuperstructure«. robert lippok created a new foundation for his musical endeavors. now – 7 years later – this system properly comes to life on »applied autonomy«. the title of the new album is a clear indicator as to what the berlin-based producer has been up to during the last couple of years. both on a conceptual level as well as how he molds his ideas into tracks. »applied autonomy« orchestrates a certain state of frantic standstill. which occurs once a structure is set. has this state been reached. the artist is free to focus on other equally important aspects. balancing the various shades. pushing ideas even further to really make them shine and blossom in their self-declared autonomy. the more light one lets in. the more layers become visible. layers are key when it comes to understanding »applied autonomy«. big chunks of the material with which the album has been produced derive from sketches specifically made for a club performance. rather than meticulously devising each and every detail. lippok focussed instead on recording as many fragments as possible in a short period of time. elements which he could later combine and layer on stage. based on this material and his experience experimenting with it in a live environment. the album slowly began to shape. an album culminating in a collaboration with klara lewis. with whom lippok spent 2 days at the ems studios in stockholm. approaching the idea of autonomy from yet another angle. during the session. both musicians played and performed simultaneously. yet not explicitly together. lost in their own thoughts and ideas. only subconsciously taking in what the other one was coming up with. the result is »samtal«. 14 minutes of a constantly evolving state of poise. magically connecting all the dots lippok had already defined as »applied autonomy«. the artwork for »applied autonomy« has been created by the berlin-based argentinian artist luca gutierrez. over the last couple of years. he has made a name for himself with his spectacular av performances.

dark entries is honored to re-issue one of the greatest and most overlooked albums of the 1970s. time actor was the result of a collaboration between legendary crazy world & kingdom come visionary arthur brown and german synthesizer and ambient genius klaus schulze. recording under the pseudonym of his alter-ego richard wahnfried. richard is the name of klaus son born in 1979. and the first name of the german composer wagner. wahnfried is the name of richard wagners house. from the german -wähnen frieden fand (that his search and hopes will find peace). the album was a unique fusion of brown s eccentric musical vision and schulze s mastery of synthesis. the album was originally released in 1979 on the german innovative communication label. time actor stands out amongst schulze s massive catalog as a masterwork of avant garde new age. schulze helms the project on electronics. and guests include michael shrieve on percussion. vincent crane on keyboards. and vocalist arthur brown. who sings – or should we say. speaks – on top of it all. schulze describes the wahnfried project in the liner notes as “the collective pseudonym of an idea: time-electronic. an experiment between avantgarde and muzak: utility-music for sound-covered environment. in which a new generation grows up: richard wahnfried is this generation: music between genius and nonsense: new ideas transported by an old medium to your ear.” this newly re-mastered reissue expands the original 60 minutes of music across a double lp to help with playback and distortion experienced on original pressings. we’ve added a bonus track in the form of a cosmic 12-minute extended remix by italian producer and dj maurizio delvecchio from 1983. all songs have been remastered for vinyl by george horn at fantasy studios in berkeley. housed in a gatefold jacket with original album artwork featuring a surreal painting by german artist peter nagel plus lyrics and notes. “i wish you plenty of time” - klaus schulze

after years of appearances on compilations and as a group member. composer and improvisor jeff snyder has released his debut album. sunspots. on carrier records. much like the actual phenomena of sunspots - cyclical. chaotic. and powerful - snyder’s album invokes the sense that there are underlying forces at work which do not easily conform to human expectation or yield to human analysis. this is pure electronic music. meant for loudspeakers.

“struggle artist” is the new album from justin c. meyers. the minneapolis-based composer. artist. and head of the sympathy ltd. label. meyers is a unique. underappreciated talent in contemporary electronic music. his greatest strengths are twofold: his compositions have a meticulous structural logic. revealing a hermetic and austere formalism. concurrently. his compositions have a deep. introspective narrativity grounded in his lived experience. evoked with a mature clarity. together. they make meyers one of the most interesting electronic musicians working with cutting-edge sonics today. unlocking their latent powers of metaphor and figuration. his previous album. 2016’s “negative space (1981–2014)”. deals with the onset of chronic illness and near-death experience. its careful. anechoic meditations on the failing body are a resounding achievement. and the album remains a high watermark of acousmatic music in the 21st century. “struggle artist” portrays meyers’ expectations and disappointments arising from making art in his free time. created initially during lunch breaks and in hospital waiting rooms. and finished after being laid off from his job. it catalogues the despondency of the precarious life. if “negative space” was about the fallible body. “struggle artist” is its violent collision with late capitalism.

“fundus uterus. in latin is a terminology used in anatomy. with this work i wanted to describe the violent feeling of severance from the mother’s placenta. the exhaustion from the brutality of being. the wounds of love. at the same time. it is an hymn to the womb of the universe. to the nostalgia of returning there. to the redemption of barbarity. to the memories of a unique planet called zrsha. an existential revelation on the parallel worlds. that is to say. that you are sitting here. while multiple versions of you could exist in the same room. some lyrics are in the language of zarshian. the whole album clearly presents an emotional testimony that has deep references to the work of my beloved writer virginia woolf. this is the core of creating my new album.” - melentini

glasgow based producer. galaxian. is set to drop the 11th release of helena hauff s return to disorder imprint. paradise engineering is an ambitiously psychedelic piece of machine mastery that will be right at home on hauffs label. with which she set out to bring punk rock and techno together in 2015. the label s name refers to the reactionary post-ww1 art movement. return to order. which called for a rejection of the avant-garde in favor of conservatism and classicism. return to disorder has embraced experimentation and genre bending with releases from the likes of children of leir. morah and umwelt. galaxian s proximity to the sharp edge of quantum chaos and belief in the anarchism of nature make him a fitting addition to the hamburg based label.

once more envisioned and engineered in his native city of detroit. the record finds mgun in more auspicious and domestic circumstances. now firmly a father and a homeowner. axiom allows gonzales to flex his party muscle. while further pushing the elastic boundaries of his notoriously unpredictable and brilliantly raw production style. across twelve tracks. listeners are offered an unpredictable trip into the restlessly experimental snatches of studio time gonzales was afforded away from his then day job at the legendary people s records store. it s there that gonzales absorbed endless releases and rediscoveries passing through the stock. trading the occasional tip with some of detroit s best known producers.

hmot aka stas sharifullin is siberian-born. moscow-based musician. curator. educator and multi-disciplinary artist from siberia. using modular synthesizer. field recordings and visual programming languages. hmot collects sounds and organizes them into structures. pushing traditional electronic music genres beyond their comfort zones. “permanent imbalance” is his ep debut on the berlin imprint oqko following a single contribution to the label’s “form_1” compilation. structurally. “permanent imbalance” is disorderly and elusive. it’s a techno record which has undergone a gregor samsaesque metamorphosis. embedded with dizzying polyrhythmics. the discontinuity at the heart of the record might also be its central directive – interrupting the ecstatic clubbing experience in favor of a contradictory reality which is impossible to describe with regular rhythms. boldly submitted to the niche of dance music deviations. “permanent imbalance” also reveals techniques directly derived from early institutional electronics and musique concrete. but where others would pile on the layers. sharifullin keeps it trim. these are just some finishing touches enhancing his rickety and multifaceted soundscapes. subject to constant deviations of its own temporality. this music proves to mirror the crisis in which modernity resides – a state of life out of balance which now appears to be permanent as never before.

actress veröffentlicht gemeinsames album mit dem london contemporary orchestra auf ninja tune!
das projekt wurde erstmals im februar 2016 im barbican aufgeführt und von boiler room und dem lco selbst kuratiert. die musik schafft synergien zwischen elektronischen und akustischen live-komponenten. nicht nur bei harmonien. sondern auch. wie traditionelle instrumente zu hybriden instrumenten verbunden wurden. als teil der entwicklung reicherten actress und das lco ein typisches klavier an und schufen damit sounds unter mithilfe von verschiedenen objekten. wie bspw. schüsseln oder plastiktüten. die ausverkaufte show selbst war ein großer erfolg und womöglich der startpunkt. der schlussendlich zu dieser mit spannung erwarteten veröffentlichung führte. für das album nahm das lco die einzelnen instrumentalparts im spitfire studio in l.a. auf. schickte sie dann rüber zu actress. der diese spuren nach seinen vorstellungen verfremdete. wodurch wirklich einzigartige neue stücke entstanden. außerdem haben lco. neben anderen tracks aus seinem werk. actress’ „hubble“ (aus seinem 2010er-album „splazsh“) und „n.e.w.“ (aus „r.i.p.“. 2012) neu interpretiert.die entstehung des projekts war sehr stark durch das mekka des brutalismus inspiriert. dem barbican centre in london. wo das projekt uraufgeführt wurde. iannis xenakis. ein griechischer komponist und architekt. der gebäude seinen kompositionen entsprechend schuf und vice versa. war eine starke inspirationsquelle. actress und lco haben. xenakis nicht ganz unähnlich. die grundrisse des barbican verwendet. um klänge zu produzieren. die direkt von den formen des gebäudes beeinflusst waren.

yagyas rigning album from 2009 is the icelandic producer s most acclaimed dub. techno and minimal masterpiece. due to popular demand. delsin are now re-issuing it across three slabs of vinyl. previously only available as a double pack with eight tracks. the new re-mastered version features all 10 of the tracks from the original cd. gumundsson has been making music for years both solo and as part of the thule musik collective. he is an album specialist who has worked as yagya since 2002 and has put out six albums since then. they come on labels like force inc and sending orbs where rigning was first released and manage to be both absorbing and detailed yet suitable for relaxing background listening. his last two albums. sleepygirls (2014) and stars & dust (2016) appeared on delsin records. rigning is essentially one long track split into movements. it depicts a city sleeping as gentle rain falls and dubbed out grooves zone you out. yagyas style is always patient and slow burning. his grooves are long and drawn out and his pads reach up into the heavens. this whole album in coated in a warm fuzz and is a real comfort on dark. long. cold nights. as insular and melancholic as it is. there is also plenty of beauty in the melodies and delicate keys. from dark and gloomy to more optimistic and meditative. there is a sophistication throughout this always cinematic album that continues to make it stand out nearly a decade after it was first released.

180gr black vinyl. full colour sleeve. our journey continues with an ep of pure ageless music for the dancing brain. four tracks dusted from the archives of this mysterious artist. real name alastair johnson released only few eps and one album in the mid/late 90s and then almost disappeared. we are more than happy to have the opportunity to highlight this material. the other big great satisfaction is also to be able to involve the historical warp-affiliated duo b12 for a really deep and spacey interpretation. have a good trip!

steve pepes danza moderna takes cues of all manuel cascones musical experiences (from no wave to weird pop. from sound scores to abstract ethno music and even children music) and puts them inside the big container called dance music trying to demolish some of its automatisms. the result is seven tracks that feel too alive to enclose them in a genre. music thats playful and transcendental at the same time. with the kind of natural and effortless feel thats so hard to achieve

after releasing a brilliant and stomping three-tracker on kontra-musik white label last year. ex-durian brother harmonious thelonious returns to the kontra-musik family with an absolute gem of a record. this is everything we want dance music to be: characterful. playful and impossibly funky. harmonious thelonious is a master of crafting organic sounding rhythms but arranging them in a manner that reminds one of a 1970 s car factory. primal pulses running through modern assembly lines. gears and pistons covered in green lianas. the result is a perfect symbiosis between living tissue and mechanical parts - dance music for primitive cyborgs.
