WL//WH Weekly Electronic Music Tips

• VELAX – Oberwave Mix 103                                                                                                                                    

Fresh from a striking row of impressive remixes, a fine track on the recent Oberwave sampler and a strong EP on Nein Records, Russian producer and DJ Velax teases a shimmering cosmic ride of ‘sensual body music decadence’ for the ceaselessly chugging Saint Petersburg‘s Oberwave community, ripe with New Beat, Dark Disco, Slow Techno and beyond with a bold experimental twist.

• Berlin-based EBM/dark electronic/techno/Italo disco Toulouse‘s producer, DJ and live artist (part of Imperial Black Unit, Infravision and Lost Highway), aka Lapse Of Reason, PABLO BOZZI “Broken Siren” off upcoming EP “Last Moscow Mule” on Jennifer Cardini & Noura Labbani’s Dischi Autunno imprint.                                     

After deeply enjoyed his DJ set a few weeks ago, the French artist is back with a stunning 4-track EP through his, both fresh and familiar, distinctive dizzying mix of Italo Disco, EBM, Wave, Breakbeat and Techno. Our fave, maybe because it reminds us of bygone syncopated percussive pulsions never forgotten, triggers mystical droning desires to ignite raw, ritual broken beat’s hypnotic irregular flow, through the dizzying flutter of synth glow expansions and ominous oscillating bassline threat, as subconscious dimensions split deadly danger with shamanic cries into the “Broken Siren‘s” grinding dancefloor rhythms.

• Belgrade, Serbia dark drone experimental electronic producer Anđelina Mićić aka Zhe Pechorin “Compulsive Loner” off the upcoming V/A “White Waters” tape compilation on Minor Adjustments
  

Serbian producer slightly deviates from her ambient droney moods, at least as I personally knew her, with the shimmering darkness of low primal bass that urges to spread secret ritual pulses, through nocturnal ghostly horizons, striking fear and envy into hypnotic crisp and stark echoing percussive tones, rising with uncertain intensities of latent desire into a swelling sea of subconscious angst. Check out the experimental electronic tape compilation from up-and-coming Eastern European producers via Belgrade’s Minor Adjustments.

• South of Italy lo-fi/esoteric/EBM/industrial/dark techno/electro producer (aka Sharplines), NATHANIEL “Near/Side” off the cassette EP “Friction Between Poison and Cure” on his own Dead By Overdose
  

Unmistakable DIY cassette label from Southern Italy scares away its EBM-embedded lo-fi, dark and noisy industrial techno monster Nathaniel with relentless destructive drive crushing erratic bass eruptions strewn in vigorous mechanical beats creating an aggressive outflow of dramatic vocalizations, steeped in detached fate and desperate fear, struggling to arise from the overpowering magnetism of cracking rhythms.
