lyra valenza geben den ton für ihr erstes album -low gear no pressure- mit einer idyllischen atmosphäre vor, die dann in temperamentvolle, gefühlvolle dance-workouts übergeht. in acht tracks erkundet das dänische duo die pixelige euphorie ihrer früheren eps scan, deliver- und nightshade edition- mit einer fokussierteren sensibilität. anfang 2020 waren lyra valenza von der musikplattform shape frisch nominiert worden. angesichts der pandemie änderten sich jedoch die pläne: anstatt eine reihe von festivals zu spielen, verbrachte das duo wochen in einem sommerhaus im ländlichen sjælland, direkt an der nordöstlichen küste dänemarks, um frühe versionen der tracks dieses albums aufzunehmen.

the inaugural release of recently established copenhagen-based label petrola 80, is a fresh 12- ep produced by the danish producer and dj duo lyra. the ep consists of three sample-based tracks, all equally different in sound and dynamics, while still contributing to the same framework. the characterizing energy and playful experiments in sound are sustained throughout the entire record, of which the three tracks vary from gritty, hard-hitting techno to obscure and evolving ambient.

debut double lp album from blakk harbor the greek berlin based artist and sound designer behind native instruments, angelos liaros. soaring drones, dark ambiences and expertly crafted sound design. “madares” title derives from the actual dune mountains of crete. this moonlike landscape a sacred land of ancient ceremonies and the main inspiration for the album concept, cover and artwork. percussive samples and drones are created from traditional custom cretan instruments (lute, skin drums, lyra, tsabouna) & world instruments (tibetan bowls, gongs, dungchen horns) granulized to death drones through modular synths and hardware samplers. a black hole soundtrack that sucks you in tearing the fabric of space and time. enter a ritualistic occult trip to the unknown. limited to 250 copies on double vinyl with download code included, no separate digital release.

leeds based beat machine niko maxen returns for his second outing on shadow sanctuary. two indelible, groove led originals are on offer here, served up with remixes from man of the moment michael james and label boss dexter kane. having already stacked up releases on the likes of hoarder and fantastic friends, it s been a strong 2018 so far for the pathway traxx boss. 300 copies - vinyl only, get it while you can

logistics, one of hospital records’ most prolific artists, is back with his seventh studio album ‘hologram’. inspired by his travels to hong-kong and new zealand, this universally admired drum & bass figure presents a vibrant 16-track collection soaked in his signature groove, soul and liquid-funk stylings.

we are going deep below the sea level for this release on pulse drift. down there, musical treasures of rare quality can be encountered and brought to you through this excellent 5-track ep! greek artist kon001 delivers an aquatic storm of underwater electro and techno in best detroit tradition. yet he puts his very own ingredients to the essence, mixing up submerged soul and marine funk, sci-fi concepts and greek mythology. catch a deep breath and follow on this musical dive!

opener laguna is a loopy, liquid track of fluttering drums and rubbery kicks that never lets up. ortica is more gloopy and wonky, with firmer kicks and aqueous sounds dripping off the groove, while lyra is beautifully delicate and intricate, with underwater life forms drifting by as gentle xylophones sounds dance around. the masterful minimalism continues on the dark, undulating and alien vilipendio, and things round out with the paranoid voices and panning synths of mekong , an unsettling track that has you looking over your shoulder.

bnjmn presents body reflections pt.2 - the second step in his new, subdued and intricate sonic direction. the highly textured ambient dance music that characterized the first chapter released earlier this year seamlessly continues onto this new reference. each track on the ep introduces symmetry and rhythm in the form of organic percussion. whether lethargic and ethereal, blanketed with discordant melodies and arcing synth lines, or, more dance-oriented - with sophisticated interplays of percussive elements looping over soft harmonies. body reflections pt.2 is deeply illustrative of bnjmn’s ainity for creating nuanced and delicately balanced layers, and a culmination of his vast experience.

mit ihrem debütalbum -polyamour- bot clara moto 2010 eine frische, intelligente und dezidiert weibliche perspektive auf das männlich dominierte techno-gerne. ihr nachfolger -blue distance- ist ein ebenso persönlich geprägtes werk, das aber gleichzeitig komplexer, nachdenklicher und auch melancholischer ausfällt, ohne dabei auf clubkompatible momente wie -hedonic treadmill- oder -placid kindness- gänzlich zu verzichten.

while pheek may have been in operation for as long as anyone can remember within minimal house and techno, cleymoore has been most productive more recently thanks to his pluie/noir label. following on from last years seikou single on xquisite, here cleymoore and pheek link up to deliver some densely packed, production rich jams that keep the spirit of mid-00s clicks and cuts alive. the beats themselves may be slender slices that carry the energy of the tracks, but it s all in the infinitesimal details in between that the true magic of this music comes alive.

limited pressing on grey vinyl, includes code for high quality download with bonus tracks.
in 2006, tim arndt released the first near the parenthesis album “go out and see”. arndt had intended to follow up that release with a more beatless ambient album, where percussion was left to the side and composition took center stage. a shelved idea that we now get the benefit of a full ten years later. this new album helical is the realization of arndt s stripped down ambient concept. helical features arndt’s characteristic experimental modem classical instrumentation and compositional style, but slows things down and stretches them out. the focus on the organic is clear, but moments of ethereal breath weave in and out and prevent the album from becoming too self aware. helical, as a loose reference to the geometric structure of our very dna and it contains themes that are driven by a recent discovery of arndt’s past and ancestry. the release seamlessly stitches all of these concepts together and marks an unique release and new direction for arndt’s near the parenthesis.
