Talweg – Heads Toward Earth EP
Talweg
“Heads Toward Earth EP”
Talweg, the new alias of Colombian artist Mateo Callejas, makes a striking debut with Heads Toward Earth EP—a hypnotic journey into the depths of Dub Techno.
With this release, Talweg crafts immersive soundscapes where echoes, granular textures, and drifting chords merge seamlessly with slow, enveloping rhythms. The result is a deeply introspective experience that evokes vast, mist-filled atmospheres—rooted in dub techno tradition yet marked by a distinctive identity that points toward fresh creative directions.
The EP is enriched by three reinterpretations that expand the original track’s sonic universe. Stereotape highlights spatial dimension with an elegant, minimalist approach, where each delay becomes part of a refined sonic architecture. Douglas Fugazi intensifies rhythmic density and dub modulations, reshaping the piece into a deeper, resonant pulse. Finally, Athan delivers an ethereal, cinematic perspective, with atmospheres that slowly unfold and dissolve into contemplative landscapes.
Together, these works form a cohesive and immersive release that naturally aligns with the forward-thinking electronic explorations defining the spirit of Monofónicos Netlabel.
Productor: Mateo Callejas – soundcloud.com/soft_collision

“Hikari”
“Hikari” se mueve entre el ambient y la experimentación desde gestos mínimos que se expanden lentamente. Son piezas extensas, calmadas, que no buscan explicarse demasiado: música para escuchar sin apuro, dejar correr y perderse un rato dentro.
“Hikari” moves between ambient and experimentation through minimal gestures that slowly unfold. These are long, calm pieces that don’t try to over-explain themselves: music to be listened to without haste, to let run its course and get lost in for a while.

Lost In Transmission – Novocain Rainbow Hurt
Lost In Transmission
“Novocain Rainbow Hurt”
Collaboration work between artists Astrid Bellefroid and Doc.AtmosfearCrush, “Novocain Rainbow Hurt” is an experience that intensively utilizes modern methods of manipulating natural sounds, resynthesizing, deconstructing, and rearranging them to create an organic, highly danceable sonic cinema for the mind. You can hear the influences from stoner electro, drum ‘n’ bass, electro punk, groovy synthwave melodies, and then if all gets dipped into a handcrafted acid bath.

elli mia – exonorm
elli mia
“exonorm”
elli mia’s 1st original album.
The planet where the girl lived flourished as a member of a star system centered around the Time God’s star. However, it drew too close to the Twin Serpent binary star system, forcing a period of civilizational regression while being ensnared within its gravitational sphere. The civilization, which managed to revive itself by adopting technology discovered on an exoplanet within the binary system, developed extraordinary information transmission and medical technologies. Yet, it built a society that was superficial, theocratic, and totalitarian.
A group emerged that recognized how the Serpent Star System functioned as a barrier, repelling information and domesticating its people. They raised the banner of the Eye, calling for liberation from Serpent rule. However, their migration involved switching star systems before approaching the comet swarm—an astronomical movement that had miraculously occurred periodically until now.
Then, millions of years ago—the song left behind by the stargazing girl from “one cycle ago” was discovered. Written in the same language as the outer planet technology, it conveyed this truth: the Serpent Era always ushered in dawn, though the comet’s approach invariably brought meteorite sacrifices. That they had migrated to disposable artificial planets to survive by minimizing casualties. And the harsh reality that the star of their time had become a black hole, its eyes already closed.

José Gallardo A. – Drones postquimio
José Gallardo A.
“Drones postquimio”
Although the title “Drones postquimio” places the listener in a specific context -reinforced by extended sound materials, namely “drones”- José Gallardo ’s album presents a series of electroacoustic pieces that, while serene and close to an ambient sensibility, contain gestures and articulations that are both delicately handled and highly crafted. These fine details reflect a form of sonic composition rooted in a broad background in electroacoustic music.
The use of tonal elements embodied in synthesized textures, certain repetitive cells, and the aforementioned atmospheric sense of rhythm situate the work within a hybrid territory, at the intersection of traditions such as tape music, ambient and its subgenres, and certain traits of German kosmische Musik. In this way, tonality fades in some passages, as in the piece “4,4”. At other moments, the sound becomes abrasive through raw synthesis and the deployment of mono tracks on each channel -effectively dissociating the stereo field- as heard in parts of the piece “5”.
In the closing tracks, “6,6” and “coda”, rhythmic sequences emerge, both carrying a hint of tonal illusion interwoven with darker elements.
The seven pieces, all brief, seem to invite reflection, encouraging the listener to sink into a fleeting sensation or emotion, distancing themselves from the familiar “chill” territories of ambient, the mysticism of drone, or the excessive articulation of more traditional electroacoustic music.
Alejandro Albornoz.

The Necrophile Hummingbird Non-Profit Netlabel presents Live Is Not Enough by reFUGeeS From Beyond
“Alien Egg Punk for Mutant Egg Cups”
This was the first album recorded in the new Champ du Possible studio.
Since then, many others have followed.

Recorded on July 8th, 2025 at Le Champ du Possible (“The Field of Possibilities”) in Dole. https://www.soloist.ai/atelierkol

What else?
The Cave Haven is gone, so it was truly moving to discover how this new place sounds.
I think it works — we will be able to continue our explorations here ;)
Dedicated to those who stand up against corrupted politicians,
like in France against the 316 murderers who voted for the Duplomb law. The people will not forget.
Since the recording, new events have unfolded.
It would be laughable if it were not so terrible: the same criminal politicians have introduced yet another law to bring back new pesticides.
If you are French, you can sign the petition against this new law here:
https://petitions.assemblee-nationale.fr/initiatives/i-5103
To understand the level of contempt in France: the Minister of Agriculture referred to victims of pesticide-related cancers as “morbid people.”
In other countries, she would not remain in office. But France is no longer a true democracy. The illegitimate President was elected only to prevent the far right from taking power — yet has done more for those very forces than any previous president.
Trump is a plague, but Macron too.
And beyond individual leaders: while opposing Trump over Greenland, Europe allows the Democratic Republic of Congo to remain under military control for the exploitation of coltan mines.
This is not about one leader, but about all leaders.
We need a different world to face different times.
Perhaps the worst of all are the multinational corporate leaders.
We, the people, must organize ourselves locally.
And if you don’t know — it may sound like fake news, but it is real: a U.S. company has developed an mRNA-based pesticide. There seems to be no limit to greed.
https://www.oecd.org/en/topics/sub-issues/pesticides-and-biocides/rna-interference-based-pesticides.html
There is already one product, Calantha (an RNAi pesticide), authorized in the United States since 2023.

“None of My Friends Understand What It Means”
Door213 is the new project of V. Von Jacquin (of J-1792 and Gottfried Ist Tot) and it’s dedicated to Jeffrey Dahmer. It mixes nu-metal, hip-hop and ethnic/folk influences, bringing out whimsical and poetic lyrics, influenced by sounds like System of a Down and Noga Erez, with a touch of a romantic and platonic vibe that reaches out to spirit and leads you on a spiritual journey through chaos.

Makunouchi Bento – Ne/Re-văzut Muscel (Original Music by Makunouchi Bento)
Makunouchi Bento
“Ne/Re-văzut Muscel (Original Music by Makunouchi Bento)”
The original soundtrack we made for Ioana Nicoară & Sergiu Negulici (Reniform) and Cinty Ionescu (Asociația Narative)’s “Ne/Re-văzut Muscel” project.
These are not songs, but background sonic illustrations, meant to play along with AR 3D animations and people telling their stories. Normally, they are designed to play continuously: there are 3 looped audio tracks, of different length, for each “song” – when played together, the overall sense of repetition is less obvious.
Here you can listen to short, ~3m rendered demos. We strongly advise you to download the album, find the 3 images included in the archive, install the Reniform app on your smartphone and use it to see the whole thing. The texts / vocal tracks are Romanian only.

Nouă instalații AR inserate în spațiul urban transformă orașul într-o arhivă vie. Fiecare punct de intervenție devine o poartă către povești personale și memorie colectivă. Cu ajutorul tehnologiei, aceste lucrări nu doar adaugă un strat vizual, ci deschid un altfel de dialog cu orașul în care privirea încetinește, iar memoria se reactivează pornind de la teme actuale identitarului colectiv. Cele 9 lucrări AR se construiesc pornind de la povești ale orașului, reprezentative pentru identitarul colectiv, atent selecționate și desprinse din arhiva artistei multimedia Cinty Ionescu. Aceste istorii sunt recontextualizate de artiștii vizuali Ioana Nicoară și Sergiu Negulici prin animații 3D și sunt incorporate în compoziții audio originale realizate de artiștii de sunet Makunouchi Bento, Sorin Păun și Alex Bălă. Lucrările AR au fost disponibile locuitorilor și vizitatorilor orașului prin folosirea unei aplicații gratuite instalate pe telefonul propriu. Amplasarea lucrărilor în spații publice sau neconvenționale ale orașului a fost însoțită de evenimente, activări și este inclusă pe o hartă fizică și digitală în catalogul interactiv NE/RE-VĂZUT: Muscel.

Nine AR installations embedded in the urban space transform the city into a living archive. Each intervention point becomes a gateway to personal stories and collective memory. Through the use of technology, these works do more than add a visual layer—they open up a different kind of dialogue with the city, one in which the gaze slows down and memory is reactivated through themes that resonate with contemporary collective identity.
The nine AR works are built around stories of the city that are representative of its collective identity, carefully selected and drawn from the archive of multimedia artist Cinty Ionescu. These stories are recontextualized by visual artists Ioana Nicoară and Sergiu Negulici through 3D animations and are embedded within original audio compositions created by sound artists Makunouchi Bento, Sorin Păun, and Alex Bălă.
The AR works were made available to residents and visitors through a free application installed on their personal smartphones. Their placement in public or unconventional urban spaces was accompanied by events and activations and is documented on both a physical and digital map included in the interactive catalogue NE/RE-VĂZUT: Muscel.

(In france the cops are killing too, this month it was El-Hacen-Diarra. In Iran it’s more than 20 000 protesters killed, 40 000 are in jail and can be executed quickly. Cops are not the only murderers, more than 70 000 Palestinians killed between October 2023 and 2024. In Rojava the kurdes are in danger and 50 000 civilians have been already displaced. What a sick world…)

Yogurt for Breakfast – Help Wanted
[pn249]
Yogurt for Breakfast
“Help Wanted”
The release “Help Wanted” by Yogurt for Breakfast (Emilio Adasme) is a journey that involves the painstaking deconstruction of a sonic fragment into unique spaces, where the sample comes alive, being played like an instrument, as the performer explores the complex relationship between rhythm, melody, and timbre. It is the beautiful experience of witnessing a beat flow and stretch into a passage full of layers — or listening as it suddenly collapses into itself, sounding almost like a guitarist juxtaposing rapid passages, pauses, and fluctuating melodies that hover in the limbo between tone and rhythm.
It is expression carried to its highest potential: using the smallest grain of sound and shaping it into an architecture that is both intricate and thrilling. At times we are given glimpses of its raw material; moments later, we witness its metamorphosis and allow ourselves to be enveloped by its striking presence. It’s astonishing to hear how something so tiny becomes disassembled, revealing its inner complexity — and even more exciting when we recognize its origin, yet find it transformed into something entirely different.
It’s funny that the majority of these sounds feel both familiar and unfamiliar at the same time, creating a strange duality of closeness and distance. We experience a kind of Berenstain-syndrome effect, where we believe we recognize something even though we are not certain what it is.
To sum up, I find it remarkable how something so small and recognizable can turn into such a complex, unsettling monster — all thanks to the exploration of sound with the sensitivity of someone playing an instrument, where fluidity breathes life into something that feels both familiar and entirely new.

“Dialugus”
New album by Portuguese project M-PeX. Between electronica and Portuguese guitar, between piano and silence, the album DIALUGUS unfolds as a journey in waves – fragments becoming flow, rhythms that breathe, light that fades and returns. Each track is an act of listening, and each listening becomes a dialogue – between stone and sky, between shadow and brightness, between what is spoken and what is felt. Created within the PRALAC artistic residency, released by Enough Records, with artwork by Marco Madruga, this album by M‑PeX is dedicated to his grandmother, Celeste Pinheiro, born on 25.05.1925. This year marks her centenary. This album breathes with her.
