melancholic, meandering, mixed-up-in-the-head electro/nix direct from the desk of design a wave. mastered by someone’s dad? cut at curved. artwork by mel keane.

limited lp & 7- pack from synth pop(?) giant, design a wave.... big sound on these cool electronic disco edged cuts.. hangman style design by cosmo knex - big tip! copenhagen based conceptual music act design a wave returns with ‘snakeface’, a document of surprise within the composition process. specifically, design a wave uses the computer to create several beats and then utilises the mutated results as building blocks for several new compositions. interest in computer-synthetic snakes, beyond all networks of communication and agency art, centres on placing these formless serpents into existing genres, such as music. snakeface is a timely exploration of the infectious qualities of music, and how it too, as a carrier, makes it’s way through neural networks, irreducible to bits and designed to infiltrate and replicate.

ahead of his third release for rush hour’s no label and following his alien jam’s ‘international journey of synthetic emotion’, design a wave’s debut on subsubtropics ‘international journey of applied music’ conveys another lush excursion into his ever colourful and deep-seated sonic realms.

what do an alien balancing on one of its three legs, the rsa encryption algorithm, neuroscience and prehistoric musical instruments have in common? design a wave isnt sure either but this is some music made while trying to find out. limited edition ep with beautiful cosmo knex artwork.

part 2 of design a waves continued experiments in sound, sci fi and alien counter balance... limited edition ep with sideways thinking cosmo knex artwork.

the 2nd ep from legendary french producer and dj laurent garnier, originally released in 1992, comes finally back to vinyl.

with the new album cubus larvik continue their exploration of dark electronica, this time also incorporating non-musical areas and encrypted occult messages from the worldwide cinematic archive.

having been steadily absorbing the flowery humidity in steamy spa towns of central florida since his debut outing chillax, floridian $1 house music purveyor blair sound design aka kyle lyon emerges into the lobster forest with all 16-bit brass and duvet filters blazing. taking inspiration from late 80’s and early 90’s bargain bin finds, as well as a lifetime spent strapped to game boy classic kirby’s dream land, “console humidity” finds lyon on classically chipper yet introspective form, carving a path well trodden but that is unmistakeable his own.

trevor jacksons second release on his unreleased archive recordings label pre is a heady collection of subterranean minimalist synth jams, blissful technicolour textures, somber distorted drones and expansive cosmic soundscapes. recorded during 2010-2014 with a limited analog vintage hardware set up elka sythex, roland jupiter 6, roland 808, roland chorus echo, bel bd80 delay & tape, these solo recordings were created at unearthly hours as lengthy improvised compositions and cathartic personal experiments. heavily manipulated using classic effects units, harmonic layers slowly evolve, arpeggiated melodies mutate, discordant drum machines and fractured voices merge elegantly into noise. design your dreams is jackson at his best, uncompromising and considered, progressive and unique.

design default makes a contemplative debut lp blending ambient soundscapes with electronica & jazz hints. entitled dawn chorus, the record sounds like a reflexion on awakening to new feelings and ideas as well as reminiscing and looking at those that came in the past. the lp opens in a playful and harmonious way with bells play, bringing forward the idea of awakening. the rest of the record designs a world in which slow unfurling soundscapes with heavy bass like the forest or two mirrors consistently stand alongside glitchy atmospheres like the distorted ecce or the celestial escale. tracks like peaks and notes or wood caving put the accent on harmonic and textural content. overall, the record is rooted in a cosmic almost new age ambient tradition, but focuses more on the idea of renewal than vagrancy and languishing. if ecstasy and euphory do not describe the feeling here, darkness doesnt either. the result is a balanced, mature and diverse lp, bringing many beautiful sonic atmospheres to life, and telling a journey of wonder of openness.

misfit melodies present excellent house sound for every party

the berlin-based collective slow life, their 8th release is from the label s jedi, s.moreira. including a remix by indi zone.

culled over the naïve bedroom sessions of early university, “chillax” is akin to blaring an extra hot mixtape from a junky deck in your car on your way to cape canaveral to see the last space shuttle leave earth, all while trying to speed run kirby’s dream land on your sister’s gameboy color.
heavy sampling tends to drive this jeep and give it some character, many popular/unknown gems lifted from various dusty tapes and wax procured from thrift stores and vinyl throughout northern florida, cheap drum machines are clumsily slammed against it all and keep everything in a familiarly dance-y zone, while amateur chords and melodies are provided via guitar center synths and youtube ripped commodore 64 blips and stabs (note the cheeky nintendo voices as outliers). a fusion of analog discoveries and pixelated memories (melded together by the relentless florida heat), its an apt soundtrack for long and wistful road trips.

scienceofuse is a new electronic music label from ljubljana, slovenia. its purpose is to transmit futuristic frequencies by using the science of creation to transcend percieved limitations. connecting the advances in our culture and technology with the important lessons of visionaries that came before us. the label s first release, -responsible design- by veteran dj and expert knob-twiddler known as electronic badminton king (e.b.king for short) is an acid-tinged affair with a darkish early noughties electro vibe on the a-side, while the flip delivers an abrasive technoid banger coupled with a deeper floating acid cut.

g-23 makes his debut under the strange audio dreams moniker, coming through on italy s young art-aud label with a sweltering two-tracker backed by two heavy remixes. -error design 1- is a break-driven jam that never truly drops into pool of nastiness, leaving you yearning more, while -error design 2- strips the beats in favour of glitchy field recordings and percussion-driven drones. pan s nhk yx koyxen remixes the former into a wonky bit of brain dynamite, pushing those breaks in and out his melodic waves, cardopusher makes a deep techno roll out of the same original tune. all in all, a rather essential piece of gear.

mood 016 sees the label welcome a new artist to fold but one who has not only held dj residencies for cadenza, cocoon and ushuaia but also seen his music feature on desolat, be as one, viva music and many more leading labels.
