having issued a mini album from fuxa earlier this year, stuart leaths tireless emotional response welcomes the detroit band back to the label with an album recorded alongside neil mackay of loop fame. apollo soyuz was originally released digitally earlier this year via bandcamp, but you can see why leath would want to license it for a proper vinyl edition. the eight tracks form an exploration of the outer cosmos that is tinged with a deep psychedelia that will resonate warmly with fans of emotional response. from the space funk of the opening apollo soyuz, fuxa and mackay lead the listener through galactic kosmische, spatial ambience and primal tape loop experiments and more with testz 1 a considered highlight.

computer controlled delves back into deep space with norwell’s interkosmos ep. five tracks of russian space race era influenced electro/techno. hotly tipped last year by helena hauff and with a string of releases under his belt from the likes of umwelt’s new flesh, dalmata daniel, pinkman and his own label with imre kiss, crisis, norwell is definitely one to keep an eye on.

from the ashes of socialism, below the bosnian olympic mountains, rises the star of sarajevo s electrotech producer borgie. -ad astra per aspera- is electronic emergencies seventh release and borgie s debut on vinyl. it s a four tracker packed with passion, futurism, fatalism and existential rhythms that will save you from harm if extraterrestrials come to land near you. the tracks are long and have a beautiful trance-like build-up, culminating in a discotech apotheosis.
