Where discrete sound sequences are amalgamated, where layers of rhythms are juxtaposed, these tracks propose a sonic space of moving textures. Using samples and patterns subjected to accelerated repetitions that provide variations of great spectral richness (rhythm becomes colour), music clearly takes off from a background inhabited by the syncopations of established genres such as hip-hop or techno, to immerse itself in a world rich in structures and textures that go further, while supporting procedures in other known forms such as glitch and noise.
Pueblo Nuevo offer us this powerful opening release for this uncertain 2021, an invitation to a sound journey in times of physical seclusion.

A brief look into the past of Bon-Psy shows how far the young musician has come.
‘Joie’ is a moving Electronica piece, laced with melancholic yet joyous vocals and a Hip Hop inspired groove.
Resurrected from the vault, ‘Joie’ finally finds its way out into the world showing a glimpse of the sound ‘Bon-Psy’ was to develop.
We’re very proud to present you our “10 Years” anniversary compilation.
Abstrakt Reflections / 2010 – 2020 / Release #100
Featuring: Valance Drakes, Flint Kids, closeyoureyes, Ivan Shopov, Amotken, Zohell, Blockdata, Metalogue, Man From Sol, c0ma, Hypercube, Lokom, Zeuge, Michael Valentine West, mōshonsensu, ZZY, Broken Thoughts & Vladimir Belayev.
A hazy 40-minute mind-altering, mood shifting amalgamation of sound. “Plasmatica” is a fuzzy, distorted OST recovered from the rom file of a cancelled japan only Super Famicom title that doesn’t exist.It’s funky, soulful and scratchy with breakbeats and sample work. It all sounds very “classic” in a way that’s hard to explain. When I hear Takuma’s music It feels like deja vu. Not just like I’ve heard it before but almost as if I should already have it memorized.
FFO: Enduser, Pop’n TwinBee, Hitori Tori, Jikkyō Oshaberi Parodius, Manapool, Bahamut Lagoon and Masaya Matsuura

A liquid chemical reflection of ultra-violence. The new moon casts no celestial light on a city shrouded in darkness. The nefarious come out to play.

What happens when you give electronic artists orchestral sounds to create a track? The Synphonica EP. The challenge was to use the BBC Symphonic Orchestra ‘Discover’ (by Spitfire Audio) to create a track, only using sounds from the pack without any other external sounds.
We hope this album gives you a small moment of relaxation during this Christmas season, after the long year that 2020 has turned out to be.

A brief look into the past of Bon-Psy shows how far the young musician has come.
‘Borzoi’ is rough around the edges but undoubtedly a forward thinking tune showcasing Bon-Psy’ influences in the experimental beat making scene.
Resurrected from the vault, ‘Borzoi’ finally finds its way out into the world showing a glimpse of the sound ‘Bon-Psy’ was to develop.
Take a funky ride is the result of one of our in house ‘challenges’.
The challenge:
Pick up to five 70’s funk tracks at random
Cut the tracks into pieces
Creating new instruments out of those pieces
Create a brand new track from those instruments.
To see which tracks were used for each track, click ‘info’
Easy? We’ll leave you to listen to the results.
New artist Talotres makes a first appearance in this release with his track ‘Pick it up’ with the rest being Kahvi regulars you’re probably familiar with.

I was interested in the idea that dreams can be controlled. I began to learn to provoke them and immerse myself in some kind of pictures that carried me further and further from reality. What was not an illusion along the way was preserved in the form of audio tracks.

A bomb, an animal. Wings in inappropriate places,

“Tick tock tick. Time trickles away softly and time flows off hard, steadfast as ever. Time travel might make you dream off but you cannot stop time or turn back, even if that is your dearest wish. The hourglass is running, at that steady pass, water is flowing, an ongoing stream, and everything we do or did is in the past. Time is ticking and will not stop, not for anyone, not ever …”
Unlike on his debut EP on Mahorka – a trip through abstract territories, blending dissonants and rough waves of emotion rumbling, here on this 9 track album Brainquake explores common songstructures and sounds. Overtones, dissonants and layers still provide that emotional layer but with a softness uncommon for his works. There is even some optimism in the sound palette and melodies? In sound it kind of reminds of those great 90’s electronica/ambient/idm albums we all grew up with but adding that minimal touch and rhythms and some more contemporary production. As a whole this album evolves presenting a changing approach to a constant, common sequence. Variations on a theme but quite diverse. All tracks are at 110 beats per minute and as the ongoing sequence flows on, it showcases the different interplay of underlays and thrifty build up.
As most albums this one is best listened to in full but that doesn’t minimalize the vigour of the compositions by themselves. Take your time and use the strength of repetition. Sleep, snooze, listen, dance to it, it’s ambient, idm, experimental, leftfield, pop and endzeit emotronica as much as it is not.

They have imposed a state of siege of the Homelands, they have burned down the harvest, they have abused and lied, here we talk in new languages, likewise, the justice is made up, territories are defined, the overvalued fall, the stillness rises and the movement doesn’t decrease, communication and action goes on, dictators, rapist, and killers against the wall, here we stay and move, here we fly, never is outside, a new rhythm is heard, colors, vehicles, and movement, never is outside.
