// Listen - Shapednoise Fact Mix 482 // This beautifully awkward wolf drenches us in an hour and 5 minutes worth of disturbingly, darkly and entrenching waters in his feverish mind. Within the boundaries of Techno, screaming and the soundtrack to your midnight suicide. Let it rip! “Grinding Electronics/Noise and Speaker Ripping Techno,” - Shapednoise Ps. He actually does howl like a wolf when he plays live. That is a unique human being right there.

The Essentials of Techno! It's been twelve years since the first and last Mike Parker album called “Dispatches”. 12 years later, Prologue is very excited to host the second album from Mike and this time it’s all about techno performed as a kind of ritual. Let us open the secrets of Mike Parker's "Lustrations". The title has multiple meanings and stands also for clarity. Clarity is in general the attitude of Mike's tracks. He has the massive aptitude to bring techno back to the essentials. Mike’s music has clarity in sound structures, bass lines, drums and arrangements. Everything is lead by puristic sound engineering and exactly this kind of unique and authentic Techno can be discovered on “Lustrations”. 12 hypnotic driven tracks designed to be timeless, produced to be played in techno temples in order to set the audience in hypnotism and to clear the mind.

// Listen - Function & Vatican Shadow - Things Known //

[ausschreitung]

There isn’t really anyone that sounds like Samuel Kerridge. A singular artist with a true and brutalist vision of club catharsis, his is a blend of bleakest atmosphere and exploded blast-beat weight that toils through acres of distortion till it reaches the floor. So far his music has found fitting homes in Karl O’Connor’s Downwards, James Ruskin’s Blueprint and the shadowy world of Horizontal Ground. Kerridge’s next move, inevitably, is to do things his own way. His 2nd album, Always Offended Never Ashamed will inaugurate his new label, Contort Records in early 2015. Named after the now-infamous parties he runs in Berlin with his wife Hayley, it promises electronic music from the very edge. This exclusive mix for Crack sees Kerridge pull together droning swamps of noise, ten-tonne percussion and drowning seas of bass into just under an hour of relentless turbulence. Everything you’d expect from one of electronic musics most unclassifiable producers.

// Listen - Caustic Window - Mumbly //

At last, following an extended Kickstarter campaign, which saw nearly $70,000 pledged towards giving the LP the light day, the fabled Aphex Twin album, under his Caustic Window alias, has been released.  The hypnotic B1 track, entitled ‘Mumbly’, with its rave synths and beautiful vocal flips, is an early highlight. Listen to the whole LP here.

// Listen - HTRK, 'Needle Exchange 069: Late Night Sounds - Confessions of a Mask' //

Seldom does anything musical excite us from Disco town Melbourne, but HTRK might just be that film noir type game changer. 

Perhaps their decision to leave the sunny coast for grey days in London and rehearsing in the room next to Einsturzende Neubauten during their early days might have helped meander their growing sound.

HTRK's cavernous reverb of dub techno mixed with frothed post-punk motifs and gravelly imperfections of Industrial, re-imagined in the setting of a dingy basement has tempted our ears for a little more. 

So for that quiet Moody Monday, tune in to this recording for Self-Titled Magazine.

Featuring the voice of dearly departed band member, Sean Stewart and a range of wonderful movie excerpts.

// Listen - Dadub, Untitled EP / SA020 [Stroboscopic Artefacts] //

We last posted their one-track teaser, Grün - Ergot Kernel, now listen to the three-track sullen tale on Soundcloud.

The story of an EP, lie within the sentiment of its soundtrack, with that, we're encouraged to review the metaphysical journey Dadub has brought forth from Grecian myths through their own words.

Read, engage and weep.

/

At the center of Dadub's SA020 lie the myths of the ancient Greek goddess Demeter - her search for daughter Persephone, the drink at the Eleusinian Mysteries ceremonies in her honour, and the fungus which gave the drink its psychoactive properties. 

Opening with 'Mistresses March', a thumping narrative of Demeter’s search for her abducted daughter Persephone. At the fundament lies a test of a new generation VST – ‘Diachronic’ - which is used to manage audio samples. The textures which merge during the near 12-minute march scrape and plummet, raining down upon the ominous marching band beat. This is an odyssey, unhappy and unflinching.

Based on the handmade modular synth system from Nicola Buono and Lino Monaco, the representation of ceremony drink 'Kykeon' is on one hand a flowing narrative and on the other a demonstration of intense artistic scrutiny: a perfect, unremitting thud. 

There is, at five minutes, a subtle key pattern, light but not impermanent under the cacophony of chaos. This is indicative of the ceaseless self-examination. Little details, significant differences.

Powered by a sound and groove generator invented by Daniele de Santis (Grün), 'Ergot Kernel' is a chemical cauldron. It’s a beat continuously emerging from the undergrowth; an imperious column rising; a train ploughing on, coursing through an arid landscape. Conversely, the atmosphere is bright, full of electricity and warmth, with moisture descending.

// Glimpse - Scanner: Lachrimae @ BFI, London //

Sonic Cinema presents: Scanner: Lachrimae, with Gazelle Twin and Carter Tutti.

Death Waltz Records 

Well blown away, mostly by Carter Tutti.

Found ourselves in the middle of a classy, half-filled theatre that could only be the most perfect venue for an experimental showcase on a perfect gloomy Friday night in London. It was a quiet affair but with the accompaniment of a lovely dark friend, an Irish stout, the show took off into the woods with live performances from Gazelle Twin and artist impression videos from Anna & Maria von Hauswolff and Chris Turner.

The highlight of the night though, was the impeccably drawn soundscape by host, Scanner, with his semi-analog set up and mono-chromatic observationally shot film of a lady and dust. With that, the worship-worthy coupling of Carter, Tutti and Faust, made for intriguing evening conversation and a night well satisfied.

Thank you for the showcase, BFI x London x Wire x Death Waltz Records.

// Glimpse - Robert Henke's Lumiere //

Fast successions of very minimalist but precise shapes with lasers, shapes that make use of random functions, aleatoric elements, complex movements, a precise sync with musical events and visual elements, treating sound and image independently. 

"Lumiere" is an audiovisual Laser show without smoke (!) displaying its genius approach to visuals, design and light by playing with the echo your eyes produced from fast light movement.

// Listen - Mika Vainio, Kilo // Finnish experimental electronic musician Mika Vainio's first solo album for Blast First sees him return to his classic power electronics/heavy beats approach that made Pan Sonic garner a worldwide reputation.

The album developed from Vainio's recent live sets to make 10 tersely-titled tracks inspired by the shipping container industry. Four stars in Mojo: "heavy-freight," The Quietus describes it as "fearsome."

*Excerpts from the album. Now available from Experimedia.net.*
