There are many things to know about, many things to do –
Wrongs that must be righted, suff’ring to eschew.
Yet if one becomes overwhelmed, subscribes to everything,
Their efforts will be languished, and their misery will cling.
If you want to change the world, take it one step at a time:
The Right Amount of Purpose guides you while you make your climb.
Featuring percussion, acoustic guitar, upright bass, orchestral strings, brass, choir, organ, piano, violin, and effects.

sevensy (aka Austin Brooks) creates music that directly facilitates imaginal sojourns, wherein the message is the sound itself. sevensy mixes electronic and natural sounds with processed guitars and acoustic instruments. His musical themes ‘unfold into an unusual landscape’ so that it is often impossible to tell where one ends and another begins. sevensy has released his music with Mahorka from the time of the label’s inception and was featured on the first “Music for Elevators” VA compilation in 2004. His debut full-length “Beacon” was released on the label in 2007.
“one2one” is his new, fifth, solo album on Mahorka, following the “Reckoning (Creation)” masterpiece from 2023. This release represents a change of direction in sevensy’s music. Subtle guitar melodies are once again interwoven with harmonic resonances, but this new work features more unitive orchestration in a denser than ever soundbath that leads the listener into a peaceful and introspective quietude.
“We are one, yet simultaneously we are individuated. “one2one” is a series of contemplative pieces that explore thoughts and feelings of oneness and duality, which comprise the paradoxical nature of being human.”

“Resistance Music for Genocided People”
Saved In The Clouds.
I wish children didn’t die. I wish they would be temporarily elevated to the skies until the war ends. Then they would return home safe, and when their parents would ask them: “where were you?”, they would say: “we were playing in the clouds, we were playing in the clouds…”
Ghassan Kanafani
More than one year after the recording of this album Israel government is still killing people.
I’m sick about this never ending horror, lot of people are just looking elsewhere, like asking “please die in silence”. But it’s a fucking genocide.
And USA & Germany are selling the weapons, in theory France not, but when you dig… You find.
A word about this music, this is an improvised live recording, I mean spontaneous music, there is nearly no edit (mostly few glitches removed), there is no mix and no overdubs. For most of my recording I just descent into the Cave Haven turn on the devices by pressing the energy button and let the music come. But sometime to make it more comfortable to the listener I cut out the tracks to make them shorter. For example for Coexistence track I would have taken the ending part to mix it with the beginning and make a half shorter track, but finally I think it’s a bad habit. I prefer keep it as it is, I mean it’s mantrawave, the repetition inducing a hypnotic trance effect, it’s better to do not mutilate the tracks for a so silly idea than to fit with short attention span… Also for Resistance Is A Struggle and Standing Up Against The Genocide, these tracks could seem overlong but are really relevant that way to make the listener feel how it seems never ending tasks.
Thanks for being You and being different of the mainstream people.

Tracks 12 to 18 : A Hole In The Blast Furnace B-Side
An anecdote about the album cover, I took the photo inside a blast furnace and what you don’t see is the dead dog someone had left there. There is always something hidden beneath the surface of things.
Dedicated to the victims killed by Benjamin Netanyahou government, as well as the Armenian or all victims of other genocides.
Glitter, Litter, both transport
and serve their Purpose,
yet fall short.
Glisten, Listen, all that shines
is less than Precious,
in decline.
Glossy, Lossy, error rates
will pervade Substance,
not abate.
Featuring alto sax.
Guillaume Beauron “Le respadou”
The sound work Le respadou uses one of the first recordings I made as a teenager, around 1993-94 with a walkman cassette recorder and a tiny microphone, no headphones. Please forgive some bad handling noises !
We visited with my family les Bru, a brother and a sister, farmers in Laveyron, in the South of France, where my family is from. I recorded the discussion in their house about the period of transition from patois/occitan to french language.
Various other soundscapes are being used with no treatments other than a bit of equalizing, mixing, and a touch of reverb here and there.

DJ Scotch Egg’s SCOTCH SAMBAL marks an exciting milestone—celebrating 20 years of his boundary-pushing electronic music career. Known for his pioneering work in chiptune and gabba, Scotch Egg captivated listeners in the early 2000s with his high-energy 8-bit sound, often creating brutal, fast-paced music with a Nintendo Game Boy. Over time, however, his sonic palette expanded far beyond chiptune, shifting towards experimental sounds rooted in hip-hop, trap, dancehall, and African-inspired rhythms. Ishihara’s work over the last 5 years has been characterized by insatiable cultural, musical and artistic exchanges with artists across Southeast Asia and Africa.
Now based in Berlin, Scotch Egg’s evolution is also reflected in his collaborations and various aliases, notably as part of the duo WaqWaq Kingdom, blending traditional Japanese music with cutting-edge electronics, and Scotch Rolex.
His work has been released on labels such as Wrong Music, Load Records, Nyege Nyege Tapes and SVBKVLT.
In 2023, Scotch Egg’s collaborator Mo’ong Santoso Pribadi (Raja Kirik, Takkak Takkak) introduced him to the creative haven of Yogyakarta, Indonesia, setting him up with a residency. What followed was an explosive fusion of cultural exchanges, facilitated by Wok the Rock of Yes No Wave Music. Surrounded by local musicians, Mr Egg dove into genres like Dangdut, Funkot and Koplo, and the gamelan that floats in the air of every street. Uncovering these fresh influences infused his signature 8-bit intensity with the sun-soaked psychedelia of Southeast Asia. He collaborated with local artists such as TerbujurKaku and BHKT. Indonesian icon Y-DRA (Raja Kirik) and his partner Asa guided him through the vibrant world of Indonesian TikTok trends, the music of Sumatera, and even sent him on wild, unforgettable trips to witness traditional Jathilan performances in remote villages. All of this brought new energy to his music.
While SCOTCH SAMBAL wasn’t initially intended as an album, the vibrant, unrestrained atmosphere of Yogyakarta helped create something special: a playfully eccentric fusion of high-energy gabber and tropical, upbeat psychedelia. The result is an addictive, multi-layered sound that’s more than just a musical experience—it’s a joyful celebration of cultural fusion, capturing the spirit of the tropical paradise that inspired it.
Now, with SCOTCH SAMBAL, DJ Scotch Egg brings the heat—literally and metaphorically—delivering an electrifying mix with that extra spice you didn’t know you needed.

Japanese electronic and improvisational artist TaUYu DeShiI crafts an atmospheric soundscape inspired by a journey through Okinawa’s remote islands.
“MY MEMORY” was created mid-trip, the album blends ambient electronica with fluid improvisation, evoking a sense of movement and discovery.
Soft synth textures and organic sound elements mirror the islands’ mystique, capturing fleeting moments of travel. The music radiates exoticism, not as a concept but as a lived experience.
Fans of ambient and minimal electronic music will find this release immersive—an invitation to drift through sound, just as the artist drifted through the islands.
Step on up, come one, come All! All are welcome (and required) at All’s Fair – a Fair where every tit has its tat. All’s Fair, in love and war, serves the needs of All, whether pliantly or peremptorily.
A carnival of topsy-turvy exchange, All’s Fair provides the circus – though you may pay dearly for the bread.
Featuring alto sax.

“Naturecore for Postpunk Lovers”
Improvisation recorded live the 18th October 2024 at the Cave Heaven in Foucherans.
Members :
Master of Ceremony : Psyché Pelik
Guitar Hero : McClintic
Disc Jockey : Yoshiwaku Mushotoku
“European leaders can’t find money to avoid the climate change but they can find billions for the war defense ? Well, send them on the battlefield !” Mother Earth.
A few days after the session we went mushroom harvesting in the forest, McClintic found the antlers of a deer, which you can see on the cover. It felt symbolic to me, as here in Franche-Comté, hunters and nature lovers alike have been protesting against the National Forestry Office’s mandate to kill so many deer. The supposed reason for this mass culling is the price of oak wood; the deer damage young oak shoots, so the office aims to eradicate them.
This album is dedicated to activists like Paul Watson, who protect animal species against the cruelty of humankind.
Special thanks to someone who passed away this year for her everlasting kindness, we use her soundsystem for the voice.

1 Of Pomp And Pulpit
2 I Was Saved By God To Make America Great Again
Process:
Goff produced the recordings presented in this collection from unrehearsed improvisations recorded on January 20, 2025, during the second inauguration of American President Donald John Trump. Using a variety of sound technologies and musical instruments, Goff augmented and embellished the audio feed from Pacifica Radio (KPFA, Berkeley, California) live, as it was being broadcasted. No recorded materials were added nor deleted from the pieces presented here.
“Of Pomp And Pulpit” was captured and mixed on a 4 Track cassette tape. It features political speeches from senators Amy Klobuchar and Deb Fischer, invocations of deities from Timothy Dolan and Franklin Graham, and the swearing of Trump and Vice President James David (JD) Vance by Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and John Roberts.
“I Was Saved By God To Make America Great Again” was recorded and mixed on computer software. Donald Trump is the exclusive speaker in this piece, sprinkled with occasional commentary from the Pacifica broadcasters who covered the event.
There is no authorized interpretation of this presentation.
No artificial intelligence was employed in molding this presentation.
