  • Lyon, French dark ambient/experimental/industrial/dark techno producer ISTIGKEIT “All Your Hopes Are Delusional (Meer Remix)” off of the upcoming “Universal Poison” EP on his own Istigkeit Records

French experimental, industrial techno producer Istigkeit has previewed parts of the first EP, via his own imprint, comprised of 4 early unreleased tracks of ‘cold broken techno and industrial music with black/doom metal influences’ plus 4 remixes. Bordeaux-based Meer‘s rework slowly unfolds like an unbroken nightmare, increasingly thicker and oppressive, as hypnotically pulsing ritualistic drumbeats, blistering, hissing strings, buzzing droning bass, lashing noise, plunging down a stifling and roiling rabbit hole filled with menacing paranoia and dread.

  • Italian experimental/ambient/dark techno producer Lvdwig – “Doxepine” from “Substractive” EP on Clarence Park’s Larmes

Released just before the festive period, as usual extremely dramatic, immersive and alienating, as the ever effective independent French label Larmes has accustomed us to, through the Italian producer Lvdwig, unrolls four (plus 2 bonus) dark, atmospheric and ritualistic techno cuts that relentlessly creeps, slowly pulsing, into mysterious murky realms of oppressive and hallucinatory darkness.
