slysó ep5 cyclops í poka is a 5-track, vinyl only ep. whilst the recent something weirdcore challenged our understanding of genre, the latest release takes things further, playing with our perception of acousticspace.
immersive textures are introduced without warning, just as quickly as they are withdrawn, never to be heard again. from the nostalgic harmonies of cyxlobblobs5 to the unnerving glitches of the title track, high velocity drums of aqua elba and mangled juke patterns of catpitchd5 , the ep darts its way through a range of new territories without hesitation.
never one to conform, cucumb45 rejects familiar structures, rapidly jumping between ideas whilst manipulating the physical properties of his sound.

• umek makes a welcome return to billy nastys electrix label
• very limited vinyl pressing
• umek reprises his zeta reticula moniker for a welcome return to billy nasty’s electrix label with an innovative ep comprised of 4 new tracks, split between the two spheres of electro and techno. the slovenian-born dj and producer should need no introduction, boasting more than two decades of experience, playing the world over, producing music for labels like toolroom, spinnin’, great stuff, intec or his own imprint, 1605 to name just a few, or presenting his hugely popular weekly radio show, behind the iron curtain. it’s been some time since a zeta reticula release on electrix, with ‘ep 1’ to ‘ep 4’ surfacing on the label between 2000 and 2003, although umek has continued the project more recently with tracks on 1605. the a-side of ‘ep 5’ delivers some electro flavour, opening with the serious electro-funk of ‘electric blood complete’, before the vintage sci-fi electronics and playful rave stabs of ‘euphonious’. over on the b-side the techno takes over with the deep and dub-drenched ‘encroach’ followed by the tough housey grooves of ‘radiate’ to complete this bold package.

massive hardtrance & electro flavoured tech trance three tracker !!

jamal moss aka hieroglyphic being. the exploration of a sound not yet understood or known to the masses outside the jack community. these are jack tracks, jack trax, or if you must be simplistic, chicago house, not detroit & not techno!

on ep5, legendary german musician burnt friedman makes his dekmantel records debut with ‘monsun’. the berlin based artist, who built a reputation for himself through his explorations into obscure, finely-tuned, experimental dub through his label nonplace, alongside his collaborative relationship with the late can drummer jaki liebezeit, is one of the crucial, sonic manipulators of our time. ‘monsun’ finds friedman crafting flowing, percussive, dub techno that is both esoteric, and progressive. befitting of a dekmantel release. alongside friedman sits legendary detroit act ectomorph, aka. bmg & erika, also making their dekmantel inauguration, with a record that surmises’ the group’s anologue, style of motor city beats
