#RustyTimes have been one of our favorite phrases for some time to explain our "new normal", but the creator of these words is not anyone. His long absence from the "scene" only further prompted our hero to revise his controllers and deliver 2 great LPs of electronic pleasures in the space of one year.

Plazmatick is the pseudonym of Marko Mihalinec, a longtime electronic music producer based in Zagreb. It is driven by theory, activism, urban chaos, postmodernism and the music genres that built it into what it has become today. At the same time, he is one of the pioneers of VJ-ing, he published a book of favorite thrash films with his colleague Velimir Grgić known as "Yellow Subtitle", and all that is not even close to everything that is the core of his music. Last year, after years of absence, he decided to publish his unpublished work from 2013, called epochal "Rusty Times", while after a few months he again conquered the new and for now the last long-playing "You're cuddling me". The great thing is that Plazmatick skillfully navigates between breakbeat, techno, trip hop, psychedelia and dance and therefore it is great to host him again after a long time in Attack space, because his musical journey started from the damp basements of the former Jedinstvo pump factory. Let us therefore greet the return of the written off and dance for a better tomorrow, which somehow is still not coming.

Plazmatick – Maziš Mi Se / Cuddly, Cuddly Deluxe DLP (PDV Records) Review

The deluxe vinyl edition of Maziš Mi Se / Cuddly, Cuddly comes with a bonus vinyl that includes Plazmatick’s previous record Hrđava Vremena/Rusty Times. The inner record sleeve unveils the original cover artwork for that particular album, with a brilliant yakuza photo done by Seiji Kurata included on a front cover. The backside of an inlay includes the tracklist and all the necessary info about the label. The visual identity for Maziš Mi Se / Cuddly, Cuddly entirely differs from the previous record, and this improved design showcases an abstract painting done in glowy purple, turquoise, and pink tones. Just like the inner sleeve, the backside unveils all the necessary info about this recording. The thick cardboard cover sleeve holds both records together, so the entire release is done professionally in the highest possible quality. These records are also available separately, with Hrđava Vremena/Rusty Times being strictly limited to only 100 copies. It’s a great opportunity to grab both albums during the pre-orders because they’re available for a special price. Head over to PDV Records and order one for yourself or your loved ones.

Hrđava Vremena / Rusty Times LP (PDV Records) Review

Plazmatick is an alias of Marko Mihalinec, a longstanding electronic music producer based in Zagreb, Croatia. Plazmatick is not only an electronic music act that exists for more than two decades, but it’s also singular machinery that operates through theory, activism, urban tribalism, so Marko catalyzes his interests through engaging audio and video performance.

Hrđava Vremena/Rusty Times represents his debut recording, which was recorded in 2013 but never released for a broader auditorium. This material eventually reignited on limited edition vinyl record thanks to PDV Records, a record label based in Zagreb. The album comes with a meaningful photo, which is a work of a recently deceased icon of Japanese photography Seiji Kurata. Hrđava Vremena/Rusty Times served as the official soundtrack for a memorial exhibition in honor of photographer Seiji Kurata, held in Tokyo this year. This recording represents a comprehensive collection comprised of ten appealing electro compositions. Plazmatick encompasses a full specter of genres under his branch, such as old school dubstep, electronica, trip-hop, and techno. Still, these compositions are showcasing his interest in organic and synthetic ambient music, devotion to cinematic soundtracks, and pure love for the entire amalgam of other non-electronic music genres. Besides the predominant presence of almost every electronic subgenre, you may hear some jazzy progressions, liquid synth-pop leads, arpeggiated sci-fi sequences, and pleasant acoustic moments. Hrđava Vremena/Rusty Times embraces a wide array of notable and subtle movements, but every articulation is composed, arranged, and produced to perfection. These engaging numbers are offering a tremendous exploration through the harmonious universe, mainly comprised of delightful melodies, hypnotic sequences, notable accentuations, and delicate beats. You may notice some similarities with the music of Vangelis, Noriyuki Asakura, John Williams, Hans Zimmer, and Sergio Leone along the way, but perhaps Plazmatick used their influential music as potential guidance for his debut. This particular material provides loads of entertainment through pleasing harmonizations, addictive melodies, catchy articulations, and rhythmical sequences. Plazmatick thought about every possible movement included on this record but also spent some time working on excellent arrangments that certainly highlight these numbers. The marvelous production empowers the entire material by bringing only the best affinities of each composition. You’ll solely enjoy this record if you’re into engaging electronic music, decorated by thoughtfully composed thematics. Hrđava Vremena/Rusty Times comes on standard black vinyl limited to only 100 copies, so act fast if you want to preserve your copy. Still, you can entirely enjoy these tunes at all streaming services if you’re more into digital streams. Head over to PDV Records and check out this record!

“Maziš mi se / #cuddlycuddly” album review

Electronic music for your home. This is the first and simplest recommendation with the album "Maziš mi se" which was revived by the reawakened Plazmatick just a few weeks after the release of the comeback longplay "Rusty Times". 

In his latest release, there is more than enough party material pulled to the fore with the introductory "Sand", the technoid crane "Neonpunk" and the announcing single "Picnic", but this is only the first quarter of the album boldly spread over 80 minutes. Below, the ambient background, tailor-made for a well-sounded living room, is slowly revealed. Post-trip-hop “Lunar” calls for morning coffee, while the slow-moving “I don’t let the wind touch you” fits best with late-night daydreaming. "Kinki" is another irresistible challenge for all hardened partygoers, and first of all for those older from the Plasmatic generation 40+ who remember the adventurous journey of EGOBOO bits. On this voyage, Aesqe, Blashko, Plazmatick, and The Sound of the Ship plotted the longitude and latitude of domestic experimental electronics. Although it sounds just a little nostalgic and not at all old-fashioned, the album "Maziš mi se" is a kind of reminiscence of this pioneering endeavor.
