Deef : Moist Autobiography [FSCC004]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“So this time our free gold series is represented by Dimitrij Deef from Vienna (BTW originally from Russia). This is a real trippy shroom-melt pack of glitchy ambient, wisely manipulated noises, multy-layered patterns and so on – all to reach one of those high states of sonic delight. We’d say it’s just a “hacked silence”. So 5 real psychedelic and out-of-this-world tunes to continue the summer hole. Cover made by Deef himself and yes it perfectly shows what’s going on there in this humble ‘Autobiography’. And what’s more this time we drop it in 24 bits for all those who want to capture all the tiny details of which ‘Moist Autobiography’ is toughly loaded. Keep it zen.”

Various Artists : Futur[e]cho 2013 [CFM048]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“After two years of releases in the Futur[e]cho series, the series returns once again with its longest release yet. Getting somewhat away from the goal of the series, pairing lesser known artists with bigger names in the scene, last years release got away from that. This years release has a bunch of artists you’ve probably not heard of that need to be heard along with some bigger talent you’ve already heard of. This years release also instills more Ambient Techno than Dub Techno, but there is a good mix of both styles on the release. This year’s release features several of the artists that have appeared on both releases, returning artists from the very first release in the series along with new faces. The series strives to get people who might be interested in either Dub Techno or Ambient Techno into both. Enjoy the sonic soundscapes that encompass what is Futur[e]cho 2013.”

Tetsuya Hikita＋NIL : utakata++ [BK-K 035]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“Tetsuya Hikita + NIL is the project of NIL and T. Hikita from Hokkaido. It’s difficult to describe their music, there’s a variety of factors influencing it. One could say it’s electronica, dub, IDM, experimental, ambient and drone. Anyway, they’re creating strong soundscapes by all means, both deep and consistent like foam in a heavy swell.”

Smurd : Mo Gear [PLANET040] / [alk027]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“Smurd‘s first release on Planet Terror was ‘New Ferves’ on our Terra Firma compilation back in 2010, so a full EP from the Barcelona-based producer has been on the cards for a while now. Mo Gear does not disappoint, playing to Smurd’s strengths with the melodic acid and hectic breakbeats he has become known for. Accomplished and intriguing.”

“Welcome To Büromaschinen is Büromaschinen‘s first release on Upitup, and it’s a perfect introduction to his sound.
With a selection of tracks produced in the last decade, this album includes some of his secret classics like Approaching Sector X, Dotchidabe, Sabrina and Freescape, that are both perfect for the dancefloor and personal listening.
Welcome To Büromaschinen is the ideal soundtrack for the best Sci-Fi film that everybody loves but never existed.”

Ingemar Stalholm : The Koster LP [blpsq029]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“Ingemar makes a grand return to our label with this 46 minute continuous journey into microscopic and dynamic soundscapes. Riding the fine line between meticulous and incidental, this unpredictable album unfolds like liquid origami bristling with organic static. Even the track titles resonate with futurist poetics in this inspiring session, rich with techno grit and glitched out daydreams.”

SageTaylor : Inertia Sessions [CFM040]

Posted by f.a.r.e.s on

“After self-releasing the album Inertia, we are proud to bring you the b-sides and outtakes album Inertia Sessions. Sage Taylor brings more of the IDM side from Pigments of Your Imaginations to the Front with his follow up to that album Inerita. Inertia Sessions takes songs that didn’t make the main album and brings them in their own light on the album. Ranging from Leftfield to mellow IDM and byond this album showcases that the leftovers from Inertia are just as good, even if they aren’t of the same style or feel as the tracks on Inertia. Tracks like Fuego and Spiral Wind showcase a great more minimal style of IDM with tracks such as Lambent and Terminus showcase a more leftfield style of fast drums in an almost breakbeat style. This album showcases the talent that Sage Taylor has when making IDM. You can grab Inertia if you haven’t heard it over here.”
