earlier this year, the 21yearold valentin stip unveiled his debut album on nicolas jaars other people records. on sigh, stip presented classical piano, lightly sputtering grooves and intimate found sounds into an album of compositional grace and emotional honesty. now comes reinterpretations from lovil who are the combined talents of max loderbauer and ricardo villalobos, creating an elegant and organic movement that takes the static fizzes of pendule to new heights. additionally an equally bold and experimental rework of tableaux ii comes courtesy of oren ratowsky & solpara. pressing on 180 gram vinyl.

the furnace series is a two-part compilation of music inspired by a special room in the montreal apartment shared by booma collective from 2012-2014. when venues to throw parties became scarce, booma used this room leading to the fire escape in the back of the apartment known as the furnace as a space for small gatherings among close friends. the furnace series is a collection of memories of those intimate parties and impromptu jam sessions. part one features four tracks by booma collective founders and friends, beginning with psyche, a hypnotic, dub-techno inspired composition with oscillating, piercing sounds, evoking whistling flurries. solparas garden in the furnace echoes the hollowed-out concrete architecture of the furnace itself, filling up then emptying its atmosphere with layered drum machines and ghostly voices. cf01 is the result of feedback experimentation carefully arranged into a slow tribal jam. oren ratowsky. producer of booma collectives first vinyl release, rounds off the b side with gorby, an eleven and a half minute exploration of his mastery of analog synthesizers.
