the new album from danish electronic trio system is a special kind of collaborative effort with piano magician nils frahm. his purpose-built improvisations on synth, organ and piano served as source material for the members of system (thomas knak, anders remmer & jesper skaaning), who merged his warm acoustic tones with their minimalist digitalism and set out to translate their distinctive clicks ÕnÕ cuts electronics into vivid soundscapes. over two years in the making, the resulting nine tracks are as sonically intriguing as they are touching. ranging from the mellow bliss of the title track to echoes of 90Õs and 2000Õs electronica and ambient sequences frequented by mesmerizing movements and sounds. the blending of piano and digital tones and noises into emotive pieces might instantly recall the work of alva noto and ryuichi sakamoto, though system and frahm come to quite different results.

almost 2 years after the success of the album the tony allen experiments and a few months after the release of the 7inch amore, nu guinea return to the scene with a new lp published by their newborn label ng records. after touring the world looking for sounds suitable for their vibrations, nu guinea decided to go back to square one, napoli, where massimo di lena and lucio aquilina were born and raised. they watched their city from a distance reconstructing its energy from their studio in berlin, calibrating the synths on the meridian of vesuvius, the volcano that has always protected and threatened napoli. nuova napoli is the result of a long musical research that has become a historical investigation on the sound that shaped napoli during the 70s and 80s, starting from the contamination of genres (disco, jazz-funk, african rhythms) which ended up in nu guineas dna. in this album the synthesizers fill the spaces between the past and the future, tightening in a single body acoustic instruments, electronics and voices in neapolitan dialect

terence fixmerÕs path through the changing techno landscape of the past 20 years has been anything but direct. indeed, the french born producer, musician and planete rouge label founder has long been influenced by the periphery of continental european dance music subgenres from electronic body music, new beat and acid, before combining them into his own pioneering hybrid of futuristic, ebm-inflected techno with classic releases such as 2001Õs muscle machine or the collaborative between the devil lp with nitzer ebbÕs douglas mccarthy as fixmer/mccarthy. while the sound in recent years has been rediscovered and recast in diverse contexts by a new generation of producers, through the cortex sees fixmer gravitating toward a different kind of industrial-tinged electronics, led as much (or more) by analogue sequencers, melodies and ultra-saturated sounds of synthesizers than drums and percussion. across eight tracks at a compact but varied 40 minutes, the lp touches on an aesthetic hinted at in recent ostgut ton releases (2016Õs beneath the skin ep and 2017Õs force ep), revealing a sonic narrative through noisy, screaming synth/vocal riffs with a jagged, guitar- like post-punk sensibility.

luaka bop presents this album from contemporary brazilian legend kassin. one of the leading producers and instrumentalists in brazilian music, alexandre kassin has produced roughly 100 records for singers, including marisa monte and bebel gilberto, recorded with sean oÕhagan (stereolab, high llamas) and made a full album based on nintendo game boy sounds. he has played bass for caetano velosoÕs live shows and conceptualized the orchestra imperial band. his new album, relax, is rooted in dreams and surrealism, yet grounded enough to reach listeners where they are. across 11 tracks, kassin flirts with latin rhythms, brazilian pop, and straight-ahead soul, using this varied stylistic array to tell imagined tales of death, drug usage, politics and fate. theres a dichotomy to relax, with kassins arrangements often feeling bright and danceable, yet with incredibly sullen themes. its a record that speaks directly to the yin and yang of everyday life, and the uncertainty that comes with simply existing.

scuba continues his uncompromising scb moniker with caibu, a twelve track lp of cerebral techno, darkened disco and broken beats. paul roses career has enjoyed a unique trajectory that affords his reputation as one of the scenes most forward-thinking artists, label heads and promoters. always the risk taker, his hotflush imprint is credited as a key force behind the evolution of bass music, whilst his ground-breaking booking policy for the sub:stance night at berghain opened up one of the worlds most revered venues to new sounds and musical possibility. today he continues to challenge the status quo of electronic music through a packed touring schedule, various artistic projects of his own and a weekly radio show platforming new material. caibu is his first album as scb and incorporates material from the below the line and Ôold media new society eps of last year. preceding the release, a third ep - engineered morality - continuing to explore the fictional narrative in which a climate-related disaster corrupts a hypothetical timeline. the title of the album itself refers to an imagined surgical procedure where cognitive ability is augmented through transplant from one brain to another. as such, caibu and its accompanying eps invite the listener to forge their own ideas on the development of society in the context of crisis. within this dystopic setting, caibu draws strength from introspection. at times trapped in a pressurized container, at others floating through vast spaces, scb merges subdued hypnotism, syncopated basslines and visceral ambience to find his centre.

in the mid 90s, while playing in bands, max wŸrden started to record ideas on 4-track tapes. amongst other instruments the guitar was his favourite. since then the guitar is a steady constant during his sound production. predominantly he utilizes the intrument in experimental ways: he sticks screws and metal pieces between the strings or let s marbles run down the guitar neck, triggering a feedback, which becomes the foundation of a track. on his album momentum he went beyond the guitar, but he placed the intrument into focus of the production. max creates energyladen and experimental ambient music that always aims for what genre listeners looking for: the ultimate relaxation moment. the tracks are carried by slowly building string-generated sounds. live recordings and complex arrangements find a delicate symbiosis of ambient and strings.

>music is the silence between the notes.< the french composer claude debussy once said. the german trio wareika, consisting of florian schirmacher, henrik raabe and jakob seidensticker, love the silence between their notes, even if their music is often fully loaded with many detailed sounds, rhythms, melodies and intercultural sound links.

skream initiierte vor 10 jahren zusammen mit benga und hatcha das dubstep-genre, ist heute einflussreicher rinse fm-dj und profilierter produzent mit releases auf unzŠhligen labels von tempa Ÿber soul jazz bis greco-roman. fŸr fabric legt er jetzt ein verspieltes set aus house, techno und disco auf, aus peaktime-burnern und reduzierten tracks bestehend, mit einer reichen vielfalt, die von floorplan und radio slave Ÿber sascha funke und alexkid bis zum 1990er klassiker von la synthesis reicht. nicht zu vergessen: eigene, teils unveršffentlichte skream exclusives!

noch immer steht der name nightmares on wax fŸr eine einzigartige mischung aus hip hop und soul, aus dub und club-sounds und auf shape the future klingt diese nun schon Ÿber jahrzehnte hinweg perfektionierte gratwanderung so flŸssig und schlŸssig wie nie zuvor. inspiriert von zahllosen dj-sets und studio-sessions in ganz unterschiedlichen ecken der welt, untermauert nightmares on wax mit diesem neuesten sound-update abermals seine ausnahmestellung in der elektronischen musiklandschaft. auf die bereits veršffentlichte erste auskopplung -back to nature-, die mit schamanistisch klingenden vocals die verbindung zwischen mensch und mutter erde adressierte, folgte die brandneue single citizen kane, fŸr die george evelyn als vokalgŠste mozez und allan kingdom (u.a. kanye west, flume) an seine seite geholt hat, und die belegt, was fŸr eine reise und entwicklung george im verlauf seiner einflussreichen karriere zurŸckgelegt hat. indem er noch mehr als zuvor auf tiefschŸrfenden, in gospel-sounds getrŠnkten hip-hop setzt und seine ganze erfahrung als producer durchschimmern lŠsst, trŠgt der neue track noch immer den unverkennbaren klanglichen stempel von nightmares on wax.

sometimes he sounds like the euphorigenic warmth of a spring wind, sometimes he send us on a fluorescent roller coaster ride through the bends of our brain: mollono.bass creates a world of sound that has many different climate zones. his remixes are probably the most vivid proof of this characteristic feature. they cover quite all aspects of electronic dance music, but frequently they also come from genres that are surprisingly remote. somehow he manages to merge all these different vibes and inspirations into one compelling flow of danceability. thats why the fourth part of the mollono. bass remix collection is like a panoramic view of all these different layers of mood and atmosphere.

das zweite special request-album von paul woolford knŸpft mit 23 tracks und einem multiversum an jungle & rave-sounds, die bis in die frŸhen 1990er zurŸckreichen, nahtlos an sein vielgelobtes debŸtwerk suol music aus 2013 an. und dennoch kennzeichnen ŸberwŠltigende, atmosphŠrische klangebenen, offen-modulare systeme und die einfŸhrung intensiver soundtrack-fragmente eine konsequente und spannende weiterentwicklung des kŸnstlers auf.

a remastered version of shenzhou on triple vinyl and double cd with the bonus album-the samphire tower. paul cooper, pitchfork: shenzhou, aside from being the name of the chinese manned-spaceflight vehicles, means magic vessel, and i cant imagine a more apt description for geir jenssen s latest excursion into ambient deep listening. after following an aphexian trajectory with his releases on apollo, the ambient sublabel of belgiums r&s records, jenssen veered from the padded sci-fi-inspired techno of microgravity and patashnik with 1997s substrata, a genre-defining exploration of drifting soundscapes. substrata remains for many the album that perfectly expresses the serenity and intensity of arctic wildernesses, a landscape jenssen knows intimately, having spent much of his life in the norwegian arctic circle. in 2000, jenssen nearly eclipsed the success of substrata with cirque, a frequently frosty submerging of excerpted conversations and found environmental sounds that rivals wolfgang voigts gas project in its rumbling, gauzy beauty. jenssen again relies on found sound as source material for shenzhou, but this time, the found sound is old vinyl recordings of the orchestral works of french impressionist composer and ambient precursor, claude debussy. jenssen lifts fragments of these scratched records in a similar manner as he did for cirques black lamb grey falcon and iberia eterea

re-issued again, with new liner notes. a wonderful, rare record wrapped in a mysterious yet playful ambiance. or maybe it s just the impression that the japanese language often gives me. suiren is an odd jazz-fusion-wave tune that sounds like its boiling, waiting to burst but somehow manages to stay in control. like the nervous tick of a leg fidgeting under the table of a restaurant on a first date. yasuaki shimizu is a japanese composer, producer and saxophone player born in 1954. he worked with ryuchi sakimoto on certain arrangements, with the south korean artist nam june paik on art+sound installation pieces and even dj towa tei (of deee-lite fame). suiren was released in 1981 and is the opening title on the sought-after kakashi album and is my personal favorite on this overall brilliant record. it weaves behind new wave, jazz, fusion, ambient and experimental music.
