Weekly Electronic Music Tips #32
- Experimental/ambient/synth producer and sound designer Oliver Vaupel (Manon Lescaut, Truce, O. Vaupel), aka Telluric Current “Beryl” off of V/A “Love Too Can Spread Like Thistles And Wildfire” 5 years anniversary digital/triple cassette compilation [Janushoved no. 100]
Glorious catalogue no. 100, over a triple cassette compilation, in celebration of 5 years of Copenhagen based label Janushoved founded by Mikkel Valentin Dunkerley. Firmly built on an elusive underground lo-fi DIY aesthetic, the Danish imprint has created a sublime intersection of melancholic, melodic, sensual, sometime anxious synth-laden atmospheric sound, poetical texts and amazing cover art through the contribution of a rarefied and mostly anonymous bunch of highly talented artists. 25 unreleased tracks that you could even dream of…
- UK techno/drum & bass producer Ryan Fearon, aka SHIKEN HANZO “Menpo” from the new EP “The Centipede” on Blackest Ever Black
The new EP from UK Japan-fanatic producer Ryan Fearon blows me away just as much as Photek’s ‘ni ten ichi ryu’ in the late 90s and most recently a more atmospheric Raime did. As shadowy, magnetic and penetrating, as it is stark, visceral and pulsating, you can’t help but just be helplessly impressed and mesmerized.
- Germany industrial/dark techno/EBM artist PERYL “Molotov Brutality (Original Mix)” off of ‘Lebendig 00.06’ EP on Lebendig
German producer delivers a stunning, EBM-permeated, physical/cerebral, body-impacting wicked dance belter of dark buzzing bass noise and hypnotic hard-hitting rhythms.
