Overthrive – Uncharted Realms

Overthrive – Uncharted Realms
[foot291]

Overthrive

“Uncharted Realms”

“Uncharted Realms” is a testament to the limitless possibilities of electronic music. It’s a neural expedition where the boundaries between the real and the imagined blur, and the listener is invited to lose themselves in a world where the future and the primal coexist. With its crispy drums, unknown sound effects, and visionary soundscapes, this album is not just a collection of songs; it’s a portal to a sonic kingdoms where sound becomes an immersive, transformative experience. The soundscapes within the album are nothing short of otherworldly. Pulsating basslines ebb and flow like cosmic tides, while shimmering drones dance through the air, creating an atmosphere that feels simultaneously alien and familiar. The album’s sonic palette is enriched with mysterious and unknown sound effects, as if the very fabric of the music is being woven with threads of undiscovered technology and extraterrestrial energy.

ANARCO – Técnicas de polarización social

ANARCO

“Técnicas de polarización social”

Manifesto:

Social polarization, environmental destruction, state subjugation to large corporations, and the use of new technologies for people control are issues that were already addressed by George Orwell and Aldous Huxley and are very present in our society.

Anarco observes with interest how the influence of social media, large media outlets, and political and economic systems affect the behavior of the population.

Anarco supports art in any of its forms as a way of fighting against the simplicity of political discourse. As a way of fighting against the absence of reaction and response to the drift of our society.

Manifiesto:

La polarización social, la destrucción del medio ambiente, el sometimiento de los estados frente a las grandes corporaciones y el uso de las nuevas tecnologías para el control de las personas, son cuestiones que ya trataron en su día George Orwell o Aldous Huxley y que están muy presentes en nuestra sociedad.

Anarco observa con interés como la influencia de las redes sociales, los grandes medios de comunicación
y los sistemas politicos y económicos afectan el comportamiento de la población.

Anarco apoya el arte en cualquiera de sus vertientes como forma de lucha contra la simplicidad de los discursos politicos.
Como forma de lucha frente a la ausencia de reacción y respuesta a la deriva de nuestra sociedad.

Lilac Complex – Lilac Complex – Tracks Fit For Permanent Deletion Vol. 1

Lilac Complex – Lilac Complex – Tracks Fit For Permanent Deletion Vol. 1
[Wuerfel40]

Lilac Complex

“Lilac Complex – Tracks Fit For Permanent Deletion Vol. 1”

Holy cow, what’s broken? Have we taken leave of our senses? Quite the opposite: we know exactly what we’re doing and we sense (sic!) that this album by Lilac Complex (our new addition to the Würfel) will be huge. And we sincerely ask you not to take the title of the album as a call to action – or if you do, then simply delete all the other tracks in your music collection, except for Lilac Complex. Because this release takes no prisoners.

We hear digital-harsh drum’n’bass with a wonderfully outrageous retrofuturistic sound aesthetic. Wait, what does that mean again? Ok, glad you asked. One thing at a time.

„Retrofuturistic“ refers to a vision of the future from times gone by, in this case drum’n’bass from the 90s, as it was celebrated on countless Playstation 1 games. Everything tends to be 12 rather than 32 bit, with small glitches and a certain digital harshness, but getting the maximum sound out of the limited possibilities. Until the chips glow and the computer crashes. Cyberpunk is the word of the hour and the future will be breathtaking. Digital freedom galore.

“Outrageous” is of course an insinuation, because this “looting” in seemingly past worlds of sound is not done here naively reproducing, but with a keen eye and, above all, sharpened ears from the present day. In postmodern arbitrariness, not everything is arbitrary, but only available at the same time and invites you to hunt and collect and then sort in and out. Whatever is needed at the moment.

„Wonderful“ in the end is what has emerged here: a musical time machine. But the journey not only goes back to the 90s but also (yes, why not) into the future. Throw a little industrial, metal, glitchcore and bitcrusher into the maelstrom and let the machine run at maximum until it screeches and gives up the ghost. Only to then beg its owner to please, please not dispose of it. Fortunately for us, her pleas were heeded by Lilac Complex. We can only hope that this old, slightly broken machine (which has only just survived a nuclear explosion) will be started up again in the future. Regardless of whether this future is rosy or rusty.

Briefly about the artist: Lilac Complex lives and works in the south-east of the USA. That’s all that matters at the moment.

Vietnam II

“Still Empty Like Before”

Today, Vietnam II return with their great new EP “Still Empty Like Before”, a collection of six previously recorded songs. For this release, Eddie & Jamarr deconstructed their originals, reworked them and essentially ended up recontextualizing them so they sound fresh and new. Could they be considered remixes? Perhaps… you decide. Download and enjoy.

Jamarr & Eddie, thank you both for another terrific release! Seriously incredible work.

Of course, thanks once again to you for downloading & listening. We always strive to deliver the music you’ll love. Please spread the word about blocSonic, if you enjoy what we do. Remember… everything we release is cool to share! Always keep the music moving… share it… blog it… podcast it! If you’re in radio… support independent music and broadcast it!

GOZNE – La Odisea de Poseidón

GOZNE – La Odisea de Poseidón
[EPA102]

GOZNE

“La Odisea de Poseidón”

“I stood gazing into the night. I knew that we were being stalked by ships of the Imperial Japanese Fleet. We had been trying to hunt them down all day. Enemy planes were flying over our heads, and the islands around us were full of their soldiers. Next to me, on the small bridge, was Lieutenant Kennedy. A boy of twenty-six who looked several years younger. Suddenly, a flash of lightning illuminated the night. It was a Japanese destroyer bearing down on us. Sound the alarm! Kennedy shouted to me. I ran two steps and sounded the alarm… but the destroyer slammed into our ship, splitting it in two. Kennedy fell backwards and I fell with him…. (T. Sartoris, RUMBOS Magazine, 1961).”

The above story, starring radio operator John Maguire and Lieutenant Kennedy, during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 by the Imperial Japanese Navy, presents us with dangers and risks on the high seas caused by the hand of man of war, who does not consider the sea, which can be even more accurate, objective and harmful, without being at war with man. The four tracks of the album La Odisea de Poseidón, are a musical account of some of the most inhospitable places where the sea shows its claw to the ships and their crews. I personally know the Golfo de Penas and the Drake Sea, I have crossed them on more than one occasion. Sometimes it seemed that the sea hated us, or that we were fighting a battle with it, or simply playing. GOZNE’s music could transport me to those moments with every sound and atmosphere. Here is the grinding of the iron bars, wind and sea leading the baton. Poseidon, Greek deity of the seas, seems to sing the lowest tones of the orchestration and his retinue does his thing to put the most technologically gifted vessel and the most experienced crew in trouble. An odyssey indeed, and nothing less than the Odyssey of Poseidon.

Jonny3snareS

“Attack, Decay”

Wires, knobs, keys, a modular synth rack. Jonny3snareS’ twisted, plugged, pressed his home studio equipment to birth eight braindance tracks in the style of the greats – as one residing in Cornwall should. A blizzard of acid bleeps and blips, pounding drum patterns, good vibrations and a touch of melancholy; a mixture wonderfully crafted for ravers and couch listeners alike. Attack, Decay is just that: it punches your eardrums and dance buttons with shrapnel synth shot and rhythms on one track, then turns things around with nostalgic melodies and more laid-back beats.

[mhrk369]

Christophe Bailleau

“Vertical Moon Phase Charm”

“Vertical Moon Phase Charm”, Christophe Bailleau’s debut on Mahorka, is the second album out of his meta-vision of electronic and electro-acoustic music trilogy on the theme of creativity in the face of autistic disorders, following the excellent inauguration “CHUVA ORBITAL : Armadillo Time” on Lotophagus Records. Here the artist again asserts his unique craftsmanship in balancing and naturally blending low-fi and high-tech sounds, acoustic sources and digital synthesis in another powerful, immersive work. “Vertical Moon Phase Charm” notably includes quite the strong and special list of collaborators: A Limb, Stanley Christiaensen, Konejo, Innocent But Guilty and Paradise Now.

“Supradyne” (tracks 3 and 4) exists in a rather different version (and as one-part track) on “Optionnal essentials, vol V” on 3 To The 3rd Music.

Track 5 is based on “Konejo – The Rotten Cycle of Life and Decay (Christophe Bailleau Remix)” released on “The Moodygoer Remixes Part I” on Mahorka.

Track 6 is a different version of the track “Spaceform (free)” in collaboration with Innocent But Guilty for the 413 project on Foolish Records.

“A monument of fluctuating abstraction, Vertical Moon Phase Charm has no known safety measures or possible precautionary principles. A multi-dimensional mutant emulsion, we navigate in turbulent waters, no need to look for a secure anchor. Conceptual chimera, beautifully produced, each track … proceeds through systemic enchantment, it quickly becomes unnecessary to resist – a variant geometry.”
— from Thierry Massard’s review on nocoVision

Released September 30, 2023 as free (cc) download and limited cassette.

A Limb: synthesizers, noises on tracks 1 and 8.

Angel Galán – Hikikomori

Angel Galán – Hikikomori
[pn224]

Angel Galán

“Hikikomori”

‘Hikikomori’ es un término japonés que describe a una persona que se retira de la sociedad y se aísla socialmente por largos períodos de tiempo, generalmente en su propio hogar. Los ‘hikikomori’ evitan cualquier interacción social significativa, limitándose a su habitación o a espacios cerrados, y se desconectan de las responsabilidades y actividades normales de la vida cotidiana. Este fenómeno se caracteriza por una profunda sensación de alienación y dificultad para relacionarse con los demás. Es importante destacar que el término ‘hikikomori’ no tiene una definición clínica oficial y puede variar en su interpretación. Algunos consideran que se trata de un síndrome o trastorno, mientras que otros lo ven como una respuesta cultural a la presión social y a las altas expectativas académicas y laborales en la sociedad.

La lucha social está siendo sustituida por una lucha interior individual que en gran medida evita que consigamos soluciones a problemas comunes. Desde la melancolía electrónica, este álbum pretende canalizar el aislacionismo social de este mundo hiperconectado, y transformar ese malestar en algo estético y regenerador mientras tomamos energía para volver a juntarnos por un bien común. “Hikikomori” es un disco de música electrónica entre la escucha y el baile, llena de ritmos, texturas y elementos que atraviesan los géneros. Diez tracks que te dejarán atrapado.

‘Hikikomori’ is a Japanese term that describes a person who withdraws from society and socially isolates themselves for extended periods, typically within their own home. ‘Hikikomori’ individuals avoid any significant social interaction, confining themselves to their room or enclosed spaces, and disconnect from the responsibilities and normal activities of daily life. This phenomenon is characterized by a deep sense of alienation and difficulty in relating to others. It’s important to note that the term ‘hikikomori’ doesn’t have an official clinical definition and can vary in its interpretation. Some consider it to be a syndrome or disorder, while others view it as a cultural response to social pressure and high academic and work expectations in society.

The social struggle is being replaced by an individual inner struggle, which largely prevents us from finding solutions to common problems. From the perspective of melancholic electronica, this album aims to channel social isolation in a hyperconnected world and transform that discomfort into something aesthetic and regenerative while gathering energy to come together for the common good. “Hikikomori” is an electronic music album that blends listening and dance, filled with rhythms, textures, and elements that span across genres. Ten tracks that will leave you captivated.

Roberto Massoni – Floreas Unn Fauneth
[hueco negro 10]

Roberto Massoni

“Floreas Unn Fauneth”

Cada obra supone en mi caso una pregunta previa que justifique tamaño esfuerzo. Las razones y la creencia ciega de que esas razones son certeras sostienen acaso por un periodo breve la potencia inconmensurable del hacer. Durante mucho tiempo me esforcé como artista en enfocarme solo en el hacer como un ejercicio continuo de sostenimiento de la vida. Floreas unn fauneth es un resultado de ese convencimiento. Una suma de pequeñas obras creadas en diferentes momentos y sin una cronología o diseño previo que explique porque están ordenadas de la manera en que están. El gusto personal estratégicamente corrido de foco deja a la intuición hacer lo que mejor sabe hacer que es tomar decisiones impulsadas por lo inconsciente con algo de experiencia previa.
Obras pequeñas cargadas de recorridos experimentales que en la escucha encuentran una relación forzada con la naturaleza y los movimientos pequeños, sencillos, repetitivos y no cuantizados.
Hacia el final del corrido del viaje solitario que supone la experimentación, en mi caso sentado frente a un computador, perdido, confundido, abrumado y aburrido se encuentra la absurda idea de que quizás este pueda ser el final. Luego aparece la reacción más humana y abrazada a la respiración que inyecta porvenir y me recuerda que ya no hago lo que hago buscando algún tipo de aprobación de alguien que ya no sirve que lo haga. Estoy yo y eso basta. La naturaleza también está ahí, dándome un entorno para respirar, caminar, observar, habitar y eso también basta.

Adrien d’Elzius

“Silent Revolution”

New EP “Silent Revolution” from Adrien d’Elzius (formerly known as hosmOz) shows different facets of real IDM music: while taking the roots from the masters of the genre, with the trademark glitches, clicks and cuts, it has its own unique face with all the subtle melodies and atmospheres – and everything between the lines. As everyone else, artists have to find their place and purpose, and in this increasingly cold and surreal world, invaded by artificial intelligence technologies, the task can be delicate. The only revolution worth carrying out is an inner revolution, and the track titles give a clue to where to look to find inspirations from those who can light a candle in our inner chaos.

Dissolved

“Island Flux Remixes”

Island Flux remixes brings together a diverse group of artists who were given the raw elements from Dissolved’s 2022 album “Island Flux”.

Given no restrictions, each artist has placed their own unique stamp on the tracks, resulting in a collection that stretches and morphs into new expanses while allowing the ghosts of the originals to still exist. The original album cover depicted an unknown and strangely isolated island, located ‘somewhere’.

To reflect the way these remixes expand and change the originals, the original photo has been artificially expanded, revealing a new expanse of ocean and sky, somehow making the island even more remote and mysterious and allowing the music to take you on a different voyage.

Original tracks taken from the album “Island Flux” by Dissolved.
