Monolith Cycle : Points of Aberrant [SLNT026]

Points of Aberrant is a fresh view on traditional ambient. Deep and silky sound fills the space with the memories from the past, leaving the listener alone with his thoughts in beautiful abandoned places. The worst part of this trip is coming back to reality when it all ends.”

Various Artists : Apgar EP [CICUTA 001]

“The first reference is a mirror of the purpose of the project, an interesting mix of musical shapes. On the one hand we have Kike Pravda, one of the most respected artists in terms of dark techno in northern Spain. Also we have i1 Ambivalent from Croatia, one of the emerging European techno producers, with a sound tracker, but still dark. On the other hand we have Vegim, owner of TMM (Take More Music Records), which is one of Europe’s most respected producers in the techno circuit, with a lot of releases and remixes on his back since 2006.

As a counterpoint, we have the Catalan producers Mootiv, One D and Edrian Sailing, bringing a more melodic techno with sounds fresh and elegant. Mootiv is no stranger far, has published among other labels in Soundfate (owned by Dosem) and Inoquo (one of the most respected netlabels worldwide). His success is no accident; he’s film composer, visual artist and sound engineer, besides acting as a teacher in the ERAM (School of Audiovisual and Multimedia). One D, meanwhile, is following the footsteps of Mootiv, both for its quality and its success, having also published in Soundfate, and many projects in the medium and long term. About Edrian, this is his first project in his role as producer, and it will be not the last, sure…

To close the EP we have a own track. From Drugstore try to put a different point, with unconventional sounds, a sound closer to the music that we have always placed in our netaudio side.”

Adriano Orrù : Hèsperos [LBN011]

Hèsperos is a work based on simplicity. A musician and his instrument. Some other small objects: marbles balls, pins, beaters… Six tracks that have in common the fact of starting from the simplest thing in an instrument like the double bass: the sound of a open string. This element is the ‘basic foundation’ from which it develops that small or big world of sounds which is a music piece. Many simple pieces can give life to something complex. Just like in nature.”
