presenting the new ssaliva release on ekster: we never happened. 180g vinyl packed in a pantone printed outer sleeve with drawing by charles-henry sommelette. comes with printed inner-sleeves and silk screened plastic oversleeve. i am a vessel. a muffled mass. a bulk. extent. a womb. i move. so i am neither here nor there. always somewhere in between. to give substance to this frame, i carve out a piece of me. sometimes a shape, sometimes a form. into this space i pour the siege of me: words, pictures, you. so we can become me. viscosity and temperature dictate the time it takes. when it is done, i break the mold i am. i take the cast inside and place it by the others. choose one and take it home.

the vinyl factory has teamed up with french label zone for another rugged techno four tracker, this time from close associate and well established production talent maelstrom. though his name suggests total chaos, maelstroms music belies intention, focus and precision. often marked as exciting newcomer to french techno, maelstrom has actually been making music for over fifteen years. with a cryptic history of aliases and side projects, illegal raves thrown in warehouses and fields and basements, the artist has really come into his own under this moniker. the optics ep showcases metallic techno, acid house, industrial noise and stark ambient sounds, forging smokey machine music for those with a penchant for post punk and a soft spot for the spikier end of the techno spectrum.
