minor science, auch bekannt als der in großbritannien geborene und in berlin lebende musiker angus finlayson, treibt seine vision von ambient-musik voran, die weder eine statische aussicht noch eine stimmungsvolle atmosphäre darstellt, sondern vielmehr eine dynamische matrix aus texturen, empfindungen und sogar rhythmen.

incl. terrence parker remix

five cuts inspired by research & destroy s text of the same name, which circulated in the midst of a walk-out at the university of california in 2009, and underlined a crisis of autonomy in higher education. the label founder s second solo release on brenda attempts to depict this anxiety, waste and make-believe.

nice price deal !!! hard-charging techno by jason potratz and an insane remix by nhk rmx (pan, raster-noton).

deeply rooted with the 2nd release in the new series! this one is by respecs aka roman poncet. fierce techno tracks from the vital parisian techno scene that is doing so well at the moment with guys like zadig, dj deep, marcellus, voiski and labels as dement3d, taapion and clubs as the rex and concrete. fresh energy from this classic city, fresh energy from this classic label!. recommended.

absent ep produced by the spanish musician sendo, is the result of his lifelong passion for sci-films and the aim to translate these movies into sound. three tracks engaged into esoteric electronic and ambient-styled music. a very adventurous trip through utterly deep soundscapes and mysteriously rattling compositions with a cinematic approach.

sheer pleasure on the new aniara....! another new artist on the swedish imprint, mountain range aka christoffer berg from g. there must be something special in the water that these guys are drinking!

exotic refreshment proudly presents second vinyl ep with two solid remixes of george absents track entitled together. new upcoming stars - pete oak (sleazy deep, eklektisch) and patrick podage (noir music) - did a really good job providing two wonderful pieces of music

chateau: o you singer, solitary, singing by yourself projecting me, o solitary me, listening nevermore shall i cease perpetuating you,never more shall i escape, never more the reverberations,&#8232,,,never more the cries of unsatisfied love be absent from me,&#8232,,,never again leave me to be the peaceful child i was before what there, in the night,&#8232,,,by the sea, under the yellow and sagging moon,&#8232,,,the messenger there arousd the fire, the sweet hell within,&#8232,,, the unknown want, the destiny of me. o give me the clew! (it lurks in the night here somewhere,) o if i am to have so much, let me have more!

after being absent for a while, glance is returning with a uncompromising authentic record on footjob. it recently has become quieter around the man who used to be a founding member of running back, but for this occasion he went and dug in his archives and came back with some beautiful old tracks, just to compile them in a classic, full of groove second footjob ep. as a bonus he finishes and ends the record with two downbeat sounding songs in reminiscence of his former genre crossing alter ego siro. so this goes out to all the realkeeper, oldschooler und newcats. glance is back on the map.

hybris is a state of dissoluteness, of loss of control, of greed and of lustfulness. following that motto, wice takes his listeners on a journey through a hybristic process on his second steinlach ep, which chooses an enchanting and euphemistic entrance into hybris with absent (no aggression). gentle pads create a peaceful and dreamy world that is turned into a fascinating landscape of sound by trippy drums and dopey synths and so pushes wide open the gate to hybris. the threateningly booming hb11 then finally enters the state of hybris: synths and drums pump adrenaline in heads and bodies, dancing turns into greed, the complete lack of control sets in. that lack of control riots towards its peak with the eponymous hybris, which tears the listener in technoid and gritty manner into the abyss of hybris and holds him captive down there. hybris is followed by nemesis, the divine punishment ending in death: wice interprets this transition towards nemesis with hertz, a playful and breaky good-night kiss, which feels pretty damn good and resonates bittersweetly.

dimensional people is by it’s nature a collaborative album. originally premiering as a spatial composition using object-based mixing technology playing with the possibilities of sonic design (4d sound) and collective musicianship, the recording expands upon these ideas. dimensional people expresses itself as a dynamic 50-piece orchestra, telling a story in sound. mouse on mars offer sound as a means to encourage open-minded societies, aided by cutting-edge technology including their own mominstruments music software or a spatial mixing technique called object based mixing, with which a spatial version of the work was created. it is a conceptual puzzle composed around one harmonic spectrum within one rhythmic scheme, mostly in the tempo of 145bpm (inspired by chicago footwork, so the dance ?oor is not entirely absent). looking ahead, dimensional people will also be realized through installation, presenting the work as an immersive listening experience, as well as performance.

on the a side bftt and lack follow on from their debut release on the fifth cong burn tape. bftt crafts a peak time sub heavy techno weapon which beautifully collapses in on itself before its final ascent. lack layers polyrhthmic splashes of shackleton-esque percussion over dubbed out bass growls. flip it over and you ve got chekov following up his ace debut on shanti celeste s peach discs with electro 808 patterns and swells of low end weight. howes lowers the tempo with a low key bubbler that further explores the textures laid out on cong burn s first 12inch.

1lp in a gatefold sleeve with matt finishing, cd included camilles second studio album including la jeune fille aux cheveux blancs and ta douleur. since 2016, rémy poncet aka chevalrex sits among the top new french songwriters to watch thanks to futurism (vietnam, 2016), an intimate sophomore album critically acclaimed by the press and on which he plays all the instruments. wondering how one finds his/her place in today’s world while staying true to him/herself, chevalrex offers his answers in this third album and leaves behind his minimalist compositions to raise his ambitions and push his music into a whole other dimension. recorded this time with additional musicians and even a whole string orchestra, anti slogan compiles ten songs meticulously crafted in which the worlds of jim o’rourke, vincent delerme, tindersticks and boris vian collides, showcasing a level of refinement hardly ever heard in the french pop scene.

for the first release on the wysing polyphonic label three-piece ectopia have created a suite of seven new works in which intricate cello and screeching and spoken word vocals are carried along on a wave of dark electronica, taking the listener on a journey into sad acid house, scratched dvds, lipstick clogged with rolling tobacco and hangovers with absent lovers.
ectopia are adam christensen, jack brennan and viki steiri. previous works have included sound-tracking jack smith’s experimental film normal love (1963) and carl theodor dreyer’s the passion of joan of arc (1928). they recently played a sell-out show at london’s ica in a wysing polyphonic showcase that also featured xname, siren and n-prolenta who made their uk live debut.
wysing polyphonic has emerged from the wysing polyphonic music festival, now in its 8th year, which has programmed the likes of beatric dillon, elaine mitchener, hannah sawtell, helena hauff, holly herndon, james holden, karen gwyer, klara lewis, nik colk void and russell haswell, amongst many others, play at the cambridgeshire centre.

all day i dream invites a few new names to the labels summer sampler season. alongside a few familiar ones too like lee burridge and lost desert with their much anticipated ‘absent without thoughts’. gab rhome and superlounge keeping it groovy. new music from new artists include budakid, phck and zone+, each one a unique flavor in dreamland.

baaz from berlin gives us further insight into his diverse musical interests with his two (for you) ep on office. as the title suggests the talented producer splits his musical activity into two genres on this record: one is deep and moody techno with a knack for strong sub bass and soft pads. and the other one is striking ambient with a wonderful appreciation of moving melodies and mellow chords combined with touching vocal parts. what is remarkable how well these four carefully building tracks go together and how effortless they further underline baaz artistic vision of reduced and understated electronic music which unfolds slowly but emphatically. a respectable new record which is well worth opening yourself to

(dj hyperactive, absent remix) one sound is highly effective in its simplicity, nothing is superfluous on this grooving, bass-laden beast,while ‘myth is a revolving stomper thats primed for the dancefloor with its layered beats and shining cymbals. adding another dimension to the ep are remixes from chicagos dj hyperactive and the antwerp based dj/producer, absent.

fresh ambient / synth / wave compilation centering the man who brought us absent music / the misz / june11.... please note there is no booklet or downloadcode with this version of the release.

after the success of the broad and powerful second lp alone in time?, Ø phase continues his ongoing connection to token with the submerged metropolitan ep. the title track enters with burchett s own brand of unease, the lead is tense and discordant, moving over a bumpy, rolling kick. brushing off-beat hats rush overhead and play delicately with this unease above the thunder. a vague spoken word sample adds texture and contributes to the cerebral edge. ethereal swells and intense rhythmic play introduce fallen columns, which delves into atonality with keys that add a controlled recklessness to the composition. this absent mind takes on a hypnotic, dubby form with a confidence that belies its complexity. a sublime breakdown introduces the heavier second half of the track, which enters impressively and batters on to the end.

step forward andré abel and joana da conceição, the portuguese duo behind the long-running experimental act tropa macaca who had a brush with the alt-mainstream a few years ago in the shape of the ectoplasma single for daniel lopatin’s software label. seemingly absent since their 2013 lp, praga de urubu só pega em cavalo magro, abel and da conceição have been coaxed into appearing on the trilogy tapes. given the tone of vida, it should come as no surprise that tropa macaca are also set to perform at the upcoming meakusma festival

first release on new malmö based vinyl label kess kill, run by rivet. kess kill was started with the will to continue the legacy 1979-1983by bands like liasons dangereuses, tommi stumpff, xao seffcheque, geile tiere and others, music that oozed techno, long before techno was a concept. some of the music on kess kill will be brand new, some will be 30 years old, but it will all be unified by the naive frustration and punky rawness that has long been absent

fresh hypnotic groovin journey
