from the unlikely bass music hotspot of austin, texas, the mighty vvv returns to fortified audio with his strongest material yet in the form of his – and the labels – debut album. if you slept on the projects ep we released in 2010, nows the time to get acquainted with the dynamic progressive garage thats garnered praise from the likes of martyn and oneman. while still giving nods to the classic sounds of ghost, early tempa and vintage dem-2 productions, across the sea updates these formats with deep and futuristic synth work, subtle but weighty basslines and precision rhythms that mark vvv out as one of the most formidable producers working in the crowded field of bass music. this time around its not only the future sounds of london that are present, but also the ghosts of classic chicago house, richard d james-esque electronica and an ethereal contemporary soul sound. across the sea showcases the strongest work to date from a guy we consider to be one of the best in the game

nice price deal !!! this second release from glasgows fortified recordings is a departure in sound from their first acclaimed ep by dundees loops haunt, but all the same in attitude. iranian born, texas residing garagesmith vvv uses his late night musical tests to forge and perfect his sonic output, and deploys a range of techniques not normally found in the often formulaic world of garage and dubstep. this patchwork quilt of laced beats, field recordings and intensive sample editing has made manifest a four track ep that simultaneously references the work steve gurley, todd edwards, carl craig, my bloody valentine, the cocteau twins and roy davis junior via the bastardised strains of 2-step and house practiced by the likes of ramadanman, untold and joy orbison, peppered with that magic elusive el_b swing that only the greats are able to achieve. at the same time familiar yet different (how many times have you heard that?), the four tracks on projects kick with the intensity of the best club music and invokes the cosmic spirit of classic motor city techno with an uplifting and deep soulful vibe that reveals layers of orchestrated natural sound upon repeated listens. in other words, its sexy as fuck. slated for an official release early march , one can only assume this limited 12inch will fly off the shelf much like fortified s inaugural release did

austin-based vvv is one of a new wave of garage producers whose music actually feels like an honest mixture of vintage and modern touches, rather than a trend-hopper looking to capitalize on a few dubstepforum fruity loops tutorials. he s an artist who happily mixes and matches signifiers, lacing his productions with subtle streaks of colour and leading them into unexpected detours. over the course of across the sea vvv swings from gleeful todd edwards-style vocal mush (-aisle seat-) to sepalcure-esque house-tinged workouts like -retreated- to more experimental fare. on tracks like -stuck between- or the stumbling punch-drunk jungle of -duration of light-Ñwhere breaks crash through filtered soul samples and cause ripples like dominoesÑhe always keeps the tracks backbone intact while doing some of the weirdest things to bass music youll hear this side of machinedrum. across the sea doesnt have the same visionary outlook as room(s), but it shares that albums embrace of fine-tuned sequencing and development. the tender, reflective moments that occasionally pop up are its best, whether its that memorable opener or the fogged-glass beats of -among the whispers,- which admittedly sounds a little like burial but higher-definition, with high-strung chords recalling netsky more than untrue. the albums closer -all that weve been through- nicely sums up the proceedings, throwing an out-of-context piano on top of another burial-esque beat loaded up with reverb yet still cutting clear as day. its perfectly representative of vvvs aesthetic: his debut album isnt always made up of entirely original ingredients, but like any good chef, he knows how to present it in a way thats irresistibly appetizing.

new album by mysterious ivvvo

cccvvv is the brussels based duo of clara vellin and sofa elsewhere. the first covid-lockdown drew these two old friends closer and both a love-story and burst of musical creativity followed.

a collection of works and early studies

trance flavoured rave anthems from pagan.

the third release on the society of silence label offers 2 new tracks from the french duo, and remixes from london based ivvvo and italian duo die roh (aka sagats and dj octopus) rounding up a perfectly crafted analog techno and raw house ep. the opening track « 8th » with abrasive percussion, fueled by atmospheric synths, followed by «first section » a crawling beat, tape sounds seeping in, surrounded with twisted synths.b side remixes by ivvvo submerges us in deep exploration, with throbbing minor melodic keys and whispers, the remix of die roh a stirring groove with analogue warmth.

having released on the label before (including a collaboration with lake haze last time out) lisboa based producer ivvvo now returns to creme organization with a new three track solo ep.

creme organization turn to the mysterious ivvvo and lisbon producer lake haze for a new single that comes backed with a remix from label regular legowelt. the single 1 is a hard hitting but fuzzy, misty and hugely spacious house track with deep jacking drums, haunting synths spiralling all around and freaky voices buried deep within. hugely atmospheric and lovably imperfect, it then gets remixed by legowelt. his version of the track flips it on its head, strips back some of the white noise fuzz and reimagines it as a driving techno cut with impish chords, retro arps and high pressure stabs. its a peak time bomb and ensures that this release is a high impact one indeed.

every day they order alix to wake up, and he wakes up. they order him to eat, and he eats. they order him to get up, and he gets up. they order him to enter the white room, and he enters. they order him to lie down, and he lies down. and then, as they tie his hands and feet with some of the many ironworks, ribbons and straps that are in the room, alix, who is not aware that he was released, falls asleep. it is the moment in which his brain registers each and every one of the words that were said to him, and he does it so avidly, unconsciously, but avidly. however, the darkness rapidly falls, stifling any hint of brain activity in a few seconds. again the impenetrable blackness, again the night. wake up.

originally released in 2012, now back as expanded reissue with 2 bonus tracks: “95 and beyond” and the ivvvo remix of “inside you”.

thom sonny green, seines zeichens schlagzeuger bei den britischen indierockern alt-j, stellt mit seinem solodebüt “high anxiety” nun auch fundierte songschreiber-, produzenten- und visual artist-qualitäten unter beweis. wo bei alt-j körperliche kraft und ausdauer gefragt sind, zeigt sich dieses projekt eher von seiner intellektuellen, esoterischen und doch bescheidenen seite. die einflüsse auf “high anxiety” waren vielfältig: von clams casino über deftones bis arca und radiohead. entsprechend experimentell und verspielt, jedoch gleichermaßen durchdacht präsentieren sich die 21 songs, begleitet von 21 videos, die die stimmung des albums widerspiegeln und verdichten. thom, für den kunst und musik die welt erst begreifbar macht und mit sinn erfüllt, veröffentlicht das album auf seinem eigenen label sudden in partnerschaft mit infectious music. sudden soll nicht nur “high anxiety” ein zuhause geben, sondern auch anderen künstlern die möglichkeit bieten, sich mit ihrer musik kreativ einzubringen.

what is modern russia? an infinite space filled with skyscrapers made of gas and oil, golden crosses on church domes made of titanium, thousands of multi-floor beehives with millions of concrete honeycombs, where the fate of tired people burn out every evening. sensitive and subtle stirrings of the mind, persistently pushing up towards the light through the bootstrampled dirt, and blackened by ignorance. an infinite space of a centuries old experiment of power over man, and man over power on its way from nowhere to nowhere.
