3lp + dl card. hyper opal mantis is a triptych on 3 states of desire, and the first long player of kangding ray for stroboscopic artefacts. hyper is the primal, sensual lust, opal is the emotional catharsis, a blissful desire for love. mantis, like the insect it refers to, is the destructive, fatal attraction.

again shooting for the altitudes reached on manhigh’s first journey, henning baer’s second operation returns to the endeavour with a newly diversified mission. ‘operator’ finds us already at the furthest edge of the atmosphere, pulsating waves of distorted electronics and distant, disembodied voices floating in the void. ‘pittsburgh left’ is the fall back to earth, the unrelenting metallic rhythm slowly gaining momentum, momentary shifts in perspective and detail flashing by as the decent accelerates inexorably. the contemplation before leaving the ground, ‘aiim’ slowly anticipates the ascent and examines the cosmos before lift-off. surely the launch phase ‘canadian suit’ is both reflective and onrushing, trapped between tense, contrasting moments before being flung into the unknown. displaying both henning baer’s typically acute feeling for talent and kangding ray’s restless ear, the remix of ‘aiim’ is a complete reinterpretation, setting grinding triplet rhythms in an industrial soundscape that suggests travels more fearful than those that surround it.

this latest installment in the stroboscopic saga once again calls upon the talents of two label veterans, both having released eps on the label while also contributing to its five-year retrospective series.

preternity is a vinyl that collects together four of the most dynamic artists in electronic music delving into tracks from dadubs forthcoming album ‘you are eternity. dadubs album positions itself as part of an eternity which is forever recurring and in this context lucy, lakker, rrose and kangding rays remixes emerge as parallel versions of the original tracks. revolving around the axis of ‘you are eternity the artists use analogue machines and digital devices to either encode or decode dadubs vision.

the tale of the mythic pentaki mountain has been engraved on a two-sided circular piece of wax. the north face of the peak is steep, abrasive, and has been the subject of many legends in the region. it is said that whoever would manage to climb it would find a plateau, leading to a place called >the single source of truth<.

pruitt igoe is more than a post-modern icon, it represents an ancestral movement of hope and disillusion, of perfectly planned models and evaporated dreams

limited 4x12 inch lp in gatefold cover with mp3 download card.

blocaus series is proud to present “alpha wave”, their second various artists compilation includes 4 tracks of different varieties of great raw pounding techno that stretches from melodic / hypnotic trips to industrial bangers along with great grooves and soundscapes featuring the well respected kangding ray as well as some of the most talented producers from the new french generation absl, raar and rubarb. a strong team that brings the solid vibe together in the 5th record of the label.

it’s time to celebrate, nothing less than 50 releases spread along 17 years of existence. for this very reason we have planned this awesome remixes pack, split in two ep’s based in the limited clear vinyl pattern series originals.
the first ep comes with remakes by the hands of silent servant, kanding ray and cassegrain.
silent servant provides an always dark, always monotonous, always semi industrial and stripped down rework of color, a wonderful mixing tool. while kanding ray ads floating pads and flanging sequences taking the original form to cosmic new age territories. cassegrain focuses on the beat content of texture, making an almost strictly percussive workout aimed straight to the dancefloor.

for the third in its fifth anniversary release series, stroboscopic artefacts brings together tracks from xhin, tommy four seven, kangding ray and dsrcd. xhins blade moth, previously released digitally by meerestief, finds today new (and remastered) life on sa. it is deep and propulsive, with scattershot percussion reverberating around finely tuned kicks and sci-fi oscillations. the detailed sound design and experimental quirks are typical of the producer, they made for a stunning debut album on sa in 2011, and here elevate the functional 4x4 skeleton into a fantastically ethereal piece of dance music

new reference by titans halo comes from dutch producers syncom data, the masterminds behind label sd records, and usual suspects of the best dutch labels like bunker or vonk.
