(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ ANGER MANAGEMENT ♥ (⩺︷⩹) is "name your price"* compilation (the second to this date) full of brutal and dark bangers from producers and friends affiliated with Unizone. Once again, the label gathered the dark souls of hybridized club sounds, and asked them to contribute with tracks inspired by the main theme of a record: facing their own anger and fears. *Raised funds will be send to support Ciocia Czesia, an informal collective based in Czechia which helps obtaining legal and safe abortions to people with uteruses from Poland. The initiative was born after Poland’s controversial, politically driven Constitutional Tribunal ruled that abortions for “fetal abnormality” (the reason for 90 percent cases currently performed in the country) were illegal, thereby making it almost impossible to undergo.

The Rise of Conceptronica

Why so much electronic music this decade felt like it belonged in a museum instead of a club

Conceptual electronic music still draws sustenance from dance music at its most mental and mindless—beats purpose-built for druggy all-night bacchanals. But although it uses the rhythmic tools of body music, it doesn’t primarily aim to elicit a physical response. It’s music to contemplate with your ears, to think about and think with. In that sense, it’s closer to an art exhibition of photographs or video taken at a bygone club than actual club music.
