Oriiginally from Guatemala C.A. Co Founder of the Record Label Worthless.
Nahualism is the brother project of Juank Heart, where the artist expresses his most outstanding emotions in his most noble part as well as the most disturbing.
Nahualism is focused andIt is influenced in experimental sounds, in combinations of Drone and Ambiances added
with some subgenres of Techno such as Raw and Deep.
The vision of the project is to take a step beyond everything where the vibrations take over your mind, be in a trance with the most pleasant or the most chilling, his thinks is that music is art therefore imagination is a journey a three-dimensional sound to cause more sensations where each creation has spirit, the energies never lie.
“I’ve let this sink in for several weeks, and I’m glad I did. One road-trip up the Central Coast, several commutes to and from work, a recent 5-hr flight from the West and East coasts, and sporadic listenings when the time was just right—and one thing is certain: 4T Thieves’ (aka Kahvi head hauntologist) gives a nod to the Sandison and Eoin brothers in a very complimentary way. Taking cues from genuine feel-good and sun-soaked downbeat electronica strains (ie. “Orange Sunshine) to heavy bass acrobatics like the fantastic “Aquaverde”—Hauntology is an intense sonic smorgasbord.
From synthesizer squiggles featured on “Tessellations (The Synth)” to the magnetic ambient drifts and nostalgic flute sounds of “Daytime Astronomy,” each track is carefully woven to reveal its hidden melodic moments. Bells and slight whistles, eroded drums, and Cub Scout lessons about what to do in case of the Atom Bomb (ie. “Past Inside The Present”) are downbeat perfection. Tracks like “Still Life” crumple, decompose, and utterly engage the listener with memories recovered from yesteryear—meant to be played in a continuous loop, it doesn’t lose its emotional spark and fragile texture. Sculptures of sound like “Echo Lake” present stripped down (Deru-styled) hip-hop in the most tranquilized vein, ultimately tapering away as the sun begins to set on the horizon. The aptly titled “Painting With Light” sets out to explore atmospheric pressure as it connects minimal soundscapes and effervescent drones along the way. The aura surrounding “Lost Futures” is simply mind expanding—its minuscule melodies ebb and flow while a hypnotic 4/4 beat pushes forward. There are many crevasses to fall into, especially on the kaleidoscopic rhythm of “Summer Breeze and Autumn Leaves” (see video premiere)—4T Thieves once again masterfully ages this track with a subliminally vintage groove.
Hauntology raises the bar for BoC-inspired tunes, exploring atomic Weaponeering, and takes us out of the realm of kilotons into the fantastic world of megatons with ease and control. Ranked high in our Best Of 2019 list, Hauntology is aged to sonic perfection.” –Igloo Magazine

Deconstructing yesterdays inventions,
for instance walls,
we grow into a color- and artful future,
painting the world as we would love it to be.
The EP Fractured Mutants is a collaboration by Atl. and the visual artist Bob Clapés in BCN. Each track features a corresponding visual artwork. After seeing one artwork Atl. started to imagine and producing one track, raw cerebellum. Having those prefs saved he made other tracks. The tracks are musical reactions to certain visual artworks, being a homage to the visual artist Bob Clapés. You can read more about the process in the artist interview.
While the visuals are psy related fantastic creations you can find lead synth and bells in the music, that will probably turn into improbability frequency events.

Hard to believe it has been four years since the birth of Shika Shika with the release of Barrio Lindo’s Kayak Break EP. Four years of being able to release music we love, artists that inspire us and the power of borderless, cultural cross-pollination.
Yet we have reached a crucial crossroads where it is time for the collective to evolve and grow. We want to embrace a vision that tries to find the sweet spot between music & activism, be it cultural and social empowerment or environmental awareness.
Cosmofania (inspired by Cosmogony – the study of the beginning of the universe) embraces this new beginning but also new artists and new sounds for ys. A deep, exciting anf refreshing new beginning!
With this compilation we are presenting a selection of new names we’d never heard of until our open call, old friends we somehow haven’t already worked with and amazing established names. It is a selection of beautiful, music by 13 talented musicians and producers from all over the world – Canada to Indonesia, Egypt to Argentina. They are tied together by an approach to electronic folk music, rich organic soundscapes and a sonic freshness
featuring : Kousk (Canada) , Rumbo Tumba (Argentina), Eat my Butterfly (Reunion Island) Del Ritmo Vivo (Argentina) Prabumi (Indonesia) Dina El Wedidi (Egypt) Mikado Koko (Japan) Raio (US) Shamanic Catharsis (Ecuador) La Dame (France) Akimbo (US) Arilu (Germany) Peter Power (Ireland)
!Esc Belgrade-born multimedia artist Niña Lazareva.
She showing an affinity towards a wide palette of styles especially related to the electronic underground.
Her formative project Catfish Went Wrong exposed her passion for deep and minimal sounds, growing up with funkier, UK garage-influenced music , while Nanna Delay was more influenced by dub techno and haunting atmospheres which resulted in experimenting with tracks which show stronger emphasis on rhythmical progression and gave birth to her final !ESC where she plunged into the darker underbelly and music depths influenced by the more cavernous side of darkwave and industrial phase.
Sound of !ESC can be described as the sound of ambient techno in its spooky beauty. Droning atmospheres with a sinister and darkly seductive edge permeate the austere and slowly evolving harmonies, driven by subliminal beats.
Waves of ambient textures are engulfed in the sea of ambiences and vocal mantras , resembling an ocean of drowning memories and illusions.
In her tracks there is a reflective and pensive mood, asphyxiated ambience and insistent kick. With a simultaneously spare and detailed, and hypnotic and immersive sound.
!Esc unveils her obscure and delicate charms on her debut release for Secuencias Temporales.
We had the best day.

A system created to analyze reality and perception got its inputs removed because it was going out of control. This fix damaged the reality by feedbacking the system on its repercussions causing incorrect analysis until the dream of reality became a stream of negative numbers. The resistance against the system was initiated to prevent it from corrupting the perception of reality, even though, it was already shaping the perception the way it wanted to, because the reality did not favour the system.
Broken and syncopated stream of percussive attack, punching through disharmonic leftovers in reverberation, not welcoming you at all by constantly reminding of its continuously corrupting state.
