arcola is proud to present ascetic, the debut ep from acclaimed artist and dj anastasia kristensen.

special request joins forces with nina kraviz and anastasia kristensen, shattering the doors of perception over a four-track ep. through the looking glass drops july 20th on houndstooth. on the a side, nina kraviz provides two interpretations of curtain twitcher. alice was here remix takes the intensity of the original and boils it into a 4/4 spin of frenzied basslines and distorted acoustics, punctuated by her languid reading of the mad hatter. for the samba version, syncopated polyrhythms take charge of a fragmented melody. opening the aa side, looking glass lures you down the rabbit hole with mysterious bleeps, only to reveal a whirlwind of stormy breaks and junglist percussion. closing off the trip, anastasia kristensens remix of tiresias marches its way through a field of swollen bass and glitchy percussion.

with the first monasterio release, the team behind the moscow clubbing institution has aimed to recreate the atmosphere that has made the club such an important part of the russian techno movement. each track from the compilation strives to represent a dimension of the club’s style, starting with powerful opener the chamber. oliver deutschmann, a close friend of monasterio, references the main room of the club and takes us on an anthemic ride full of organs and sonic spectrum requisitioning buzz. the mutating and pulsating groove of russian resident unbalance follows, bringing forth a change in the atmosphere and the hypnotic synths and austere percussion work of young ukrainian talent recid take the listener to the prime hours of the party. danish dj/producer anastasia kristensen overtakes by ways of air in a high-speed modular chase, bringing the night to a close and leaving us with high hopes for our next journey through the corridors and chambers of the temple of techno.

the first volume of the new remixes series is up next on bld tape recordings. original tracks previously released have been revisited by artists that support the label since the early days and give shape to this varied and solid 3 remixes ep. on side a, eric cloutier blurs the line between deep house and techno with a signature theorem remix of the transpose layered with acid basslines and scuffled dub chords. stojche pops up on b1 with an advanced power house-ish vision of crawling showcasing drums, chords and leads precisely crafted. and on b2, copenhagen-based anastasia kristensen delivers her take on bubble games bringing us into a trippy and faster dark mood charged by repetition and enigmatic pads.
