deep and dark electronic sounds and sound collages on cassette

denver is a lo-fi piano journal made up of short, melodic pieces, dark and sullen in places, uplifting and bright in others. pieced together like an old photograph album covered in dust, filled with memories. with a nostalgic sound throughout, to the listener denver can sound familiar or recognisable but at the same time sound original, unheard and deeply personal.

mixtapes these days come a fraction of a penny a dozen and amid the inundation, a tiny ratio of these mixes truly deserves your precious time. the elusive british dj nommo hunzuu has pieced together one such essential collage for your ears with drinnen traum (translation: indoors dream). over an hour of painstaking aural weaving, nommo hunzuu lures you into his own distinctive aural universe that favors odd juxtapositions and immersive atmospheres laced with complementary film dialogue and gnomic declarations from culture icons like william s. burroughs and timothy leary.

there’s a good reason new age music has been soaring back to the forefront of the media’s cultural agenda and the population’s consciousness: this planet is a stressful ball of confusion at the best of times, and seeking refuge from reality’s shitstorm has become mandatory for us to regain a semblance of sanity. new age music is an effective coping mechanism in this regard. st. louis-based heavy breathing is one of america’s foremost proponents for the cause, proven here through his meditative “escalators in space” mixtape.

stepping in from the cold, martin sander dons his hypnobirds alias for the first time since wreaking desolation alongside fellow swedish experimentalist, varg. more recently, he and michel isorinne paid tribute to the stockholm-based studio, bandhagen airport, upping the emotional content for a deeply personal record. now flying solo, another poignantly-charged release arrives hot on its heels as sander makes up for lost time following close to three years spent dormant.

welcome to ‘magic maze’ a guided meditation from oslo’s helene rickard. over two sides of a c60 cassette, the norwegian dj curates an immersive journey through imaginary landscapes and possible musics, marrying the organic and synthetic into a deep tissue massage of healing frequencies. showing infinite patience, the camp cosmic regular gradually oscillates between fourth world exotica and pastoral new age, at once opening our minds with the celestial splendour of crystalline chimes connecting us all with future primitive hymns. as we float along under helene’s benevolent gaze we encounter each of the elements, oceanic reverb, vaporous reeds, earthy drones and smouldering tones, each imparting its own ancient wisdom as we pass.
but enlightenment seldom comes without adversity and the mixtape’s most divine moments often appear in the wake of disorienting intensity. fortune favours the brave, and if you free your mind, open your heart and follow the twists and turns of the ‘magic maze’, your rewards with be both earthly and divine.

almost otherworldly in its vastness and serene beauty, many musicians have drawn from the well of inspiration that is arizona’s sonoran desert, but few are quite as accomplished or prolific as steve roach. an ambient pathfinder and electronic innovator, his back catalogue as vast as those breathtaking vistas – sonic renderings of arid landscapes littered with saguaro cacti are found in good company alongside didgeridoo-focused experiments and ethereal drifts that navigate the event horizon, between the brilliance of space and a black abyss.
reminiscent of philip glass’ minimalism and the kosmische stylings of tangerine dream, ‘skeleton keys’ seemed to fall somewhere between the two. conjuring expansive meditations amongst the impossible tangle of wires that dangle from his apparatus, roach opens portals from the grand canyon state into a cluster of newborn stars with intricate, intelligent sequencing and modular synthesis.
recorded between 2005 and 2015 from roach’s famed timeroom and timehouse studios, the album was fully realized through advancements in technology, specifically, synthesizers.com’s large format analog modular sequencer. organic, fluid and intuitively kneaded into his spooling soundscapes, it’s now to be committed to cassette for the first time, bridging the synaptic gap with a new ‘expanded’ version that elongates the original 74-minute duration.

recommended for best listening results: - comfortable chair - headphones, medium volume - relaxing beverage - 90 minutes time off (including aftermath) - closed eyes. areveeal on silhouette tapes.

abstract reality presents you an album by french artist leonard lampion. it gathers a one hour selection of cuts that explores several different musical landscapes. harsh industrial tracks share the tape alongside dark drone ambient, tribal sounds and downtempo emo feelings. side a is the more dancefloor oriented side, while side b explores more experimental paths.

brioche announces himself on the young toulouse-based arts collective shawarma records. this tape is a collection of 303 pummelled jams, shredded fresh from the spike and already turning a little fuzzy. hard hitting, machine-driven kick drums, breathy hats and fired up and squelchy stomach acid combine to create a monstrous, floor destroying club weapon.

priest delivers a brooding 8 track cassette for pater noster ltd. which sees the label make the switch from vinyl to cassette for their latest releases. super limited numbers on this one so don’t sleep.

fresh water is the debut work by london based musician and visual artist, jake marshall. across eight tracks marshall twirls and bends his sound palette around motifs of emergency and crisis, “i was interested in distress sounds, sirens, flares etc”. the many sonic limitations in fresh water demonstrate marshall’s uniqueness. all kinds of plastic, caustic sounds, german ambulance sirens, bleeps rattling off unknown morse code, the highly synthetic strings emerging from the silence, it creates a somehow organic yet inhumane, but addictive turbulence.

six ritualistic machine tracks for communing with the other side, as dragstor makes a welcome return to tutamen. comes in very limited numbers, so don’t sleep.
