silverback recordings welcomes back the phantom (real name bartosz kruczynski) with the longawaited full length debut lp 1

cgi is proud to present the debut of 2 new duos who are experts at making their synths and sequencers sweat divine moisture. lyman-alpha forest is a new collaborative project between producers grey people (proper trax, finale sessions) and talk (deconstructure). as a duo they work to bring acid into new territories with their heavy, low-slung approach to producing melodic-and-spacious yet tight-and-focused slow-burning club-weapons. whether or not this is due to a stroke of compositional genius or if it is simply a side effect of the high levels of sizzurp found in the tap water in their hometown of nashville is irrelevant, but the effect is intoxicating all the same. travel 7 hours up i-65 and you will end up somewhere in chicago where afterburner spends long cold winter nights painting vivid synthesized tapestries as epic as the citys skyline. the duo of nicholas reed (windbreaker) and travis thatcher (voice of saturn) employ an aresnal of modular and analog gear to produce lushly cinematic tracks that chug along like classic moroder productions while simultaneously evoking the rich melodicism of kraftwerk. whether you listen to them at home in the headphones or on the dancefloor in the club, these tracks will take you on a wild ride.

scenes from our classic future is the realization of three songs and two projects that came together as one. as young aspiring musicians since the early age of 12, greg paulus and john camp practiced playing jazz standards into the wee small hours of the morning together. eventually the two would find themselves both in new york under new and more electronic circumstances. deeply indebted to the mastery of herbie hancock, paulus and camp would reconnect, this time with synthesizers, and continue on their musical journey together.

i d been thinking about starting a label for a few years but it never really seemed like it could work. nowadays there is more coherence in my productions it seems like the right time. i will be releasing music from other artists as well my own stuff - underground house, techno and the rest, stuff with darkness and sexiness. hopefully it is music that will speak to (somebodys) heart as well as their feet. the first release is called no splice no playback and it is two tracks of house music. vinny (flamingo) is a basement thing, suckle (twenties) works in warehouses too. thanks for reading. -mosca

corbu are an electronic, indie-rock band from brooklyn, new york spearheaded by producer and multi-instrumentalist jonathan graves. corbu are jonathan, todd hoellerman (drums, keys), amanda scott (synths, percussion), julian ferraldo (guitar, keys) and brian murphy (bass, keys). named after french architect le corbusier, the band has a strong creative aesthetic. graves writes the music from visual ideas, which he translates into sound. corbu songs are often heard partially or entirely in dreams, and are influenced by films, physical spaces and a childhood love of nature and science fiction. and it works. corbus music is beautifully crafted, taking the listener on a journey from day to night, through exhilarating sunsoaked sonic landscapes to land softly on the surface of the moon. jonathan began singing and playing different instruments at age nine, and eventually fell in love with samplers and their ability to bend conventional sounds into something abstract and new.

bushwick17 is a project by costanza francavilla and alex infascelli. it is a 17 minutes improvisation session, recorded in bushwick on a summer afternoon - with no additional edits, mixing or efx. the idea is based on both artists s obsession with the number 17: the concept was to freely capture 17 minutes of their day together, without any thought before the act or any extra sound manipulation after the act. costanza placed 2 mics on the floor in the middle of the room - facing the wall - and played synthesizers while merging herself with dreamlike vocals into ambient floating textures. alex turned on a fan that was abandoned in the studio, placed the electric guitar in front of it, creating ethereal drones, and moving from guitars atmospheres to abruptly exploding yet sultry drums patterns. the result is an hypnotic sonic journey into an indefinite condition of space and time.

vasundhara ep flows across the edges of two orders, the natural and the human one, and their mutual cohabitation into the figure of the shaman. the journey starts with epileptic heritage: the reminiscence of an ancient holy disease as primordial key to touch the invisible core of the nature, a spasmodic harmony led by a broken cadenza and distortions.leaving the self and becoming part of the whole. erratic rituals portrays this moment of involving other beings into a state of consciousness through rituals:a collective mystical ecstasy of glitchs and percussive mantra.
