As psychedelic as low budget video production can get. This one's a trip.

Paul Collins / Patrick Müller / Thierry Müller / Quentin Rollet - Correspondant A Une Lettre [Bisou Records 023]

Another fresh album released by the French label Bisou Records as their cat.no. 023 on September 6th, 2k24 is "Correspondant A Une Lettre" which sees a quadruple set of renowned experimental musicians - namely Paul Collins, Patrick Müller, Thierry Müller and Quentin Rollet - collaborating over the course of five tracks and a total duration of roughly 59 minutes, all recorded and conceived within a one-day studio session in December of 2k23. With the album artwork pointing towards Jazz in some form or the other we see the quartet embarking on a journey into the realm of spatial Deep Listening Music defined by reverberating single guitar and bass tones backed by ever thickening electronic atmospheres, experimental drones and krautsy Post-PostRock infusions in the opening piece "Mot Introuvable", surprisingly turning towards late night Future Jazz after running its course for approximately eight minutes before it's followed by the tentative, somewhat meditative rhythms and epic Cosmic synth architecture of "La Grande Difference". Furthermore the title track that is "Correspondant A Une Lettre" provides enchanted experimentalism touching both base with score-like Ambient textures and Contemporary Avantgarde Jazz explorations whereas "Faire Revenir" serves an amalgamation of probably mostly unprocessed direct recorded rhythmatic experimentation and mechanical air flows fused together by tender electronic textures and FreeJazz x Free Improv informed saxophones before the closing cut "Une Bouteille Entamee" provides a well calm and peaceful closure with its sustained, melancholia-inducing take on late night Future Jazz. A well interesting and worthwhile listening experience, this.

Jerome Lorichon / Thierry Müller / Quentin Rollet - Night In Red Satin [Reqords 015]

Released on August 26th, 2k24 via Quentin Rollet's very own Reqords label is "Night In Red Satin" which sees the Paris-based saxophone player and composer teaming up with fellow musicians Jerome Lorichon and Thierry Müller for a triple collaboration affair which, in its entirety, spans a total of two extended parts and an overall runtime of roughly 29 minutes. Opening on a minimalist, yet almost enchanted and mythical tip the triplet of sonic collaborators closes in on what might be widely referred to as Contemporary Avantgarde Jazz by the means of carefully stacking layer after layer of electronic atmospheres, plucked guitar strings, electronically processed saxophones alongside curious and playful naturalistic sax tones, ghostly, haunted and otherworldly sounds and stripped down, skeletal and echoing, somewhat swampy Electronica remnants, all combined in a rather non-linear, yet slightly score-oriented manner filled with tension and relief, infused with elements of Ambient and Deep Listening Music and - naturally - a ton of, in parts melancholic, improvisational sequences drawing inspiration from both Jazz and electronic experimentalism. Quite an intense and widely varied album which requires multiple dedicated listening sessions to reveal all its hidden details.

Sury-Tanuki - L'index L'echeur [Bisou Records 022]

Released via the Paris-based Bisou Records label on September 6th, 2k24 is "L'index L'echeur", the eighteen tracks and roughly 51 minutes spanning collaborational album effort created by electronic music producer x engineer Tanuki and illustrator x singer and overall artistic figure Caroline Sury which - alongside a few other album releases - arrived at our premises recently. Sonically this collaborative effort, accompanied by a Caroline Sury's highly detailed take on complex artwork, explores an intricate realm of (Neo)Cosmic x early Synth leaning spatial ambience with a slightly retrofuturist twist, backed by tender Spoken Word lyricism, progresses into playful Glitchtronica, atmospheric crackles, sound collage works and what seems to be electroacoustic tape manipulation as well as hyperchromatic Electronica abstractions, expertly arranged minimalist bass harmonics, dreamy, piano-infused Clicks'n'Cuts and many a thing more - all alongside a steady stream of probably associative Spoken Words, ofc. A highly recommended album affair for both lovers of (French) poetry, experimental electronic music and all things remotely Avantgarde and art-related, this. Go check.

A proper start for a new season, this.

01. Zed Bias ft. Yung Saber & Brakeman - Shell Them Again [IFG Records 005]
What a bang0r. Zed Bias shells out another anthem on his new label IFG - for: 'i feel good' - Records and caters a lovely MC-led UK Garage vibe which presents a new take on a classic soundsystem lick for a chorus x hookline on the A-side whilst Safire and the man Zed Bias himself go down on a hard hitting Grime tip with the collaborational rework on the flip, bringing back beloved memories of the genres early years due to its heavyweight crime scene x gangsta approach. Major tunage.

02. Neuzeitliche Bodenbeläge - Neulust [Lustpoderosa 021]
Joshua Gottmans and Niklas Wandt are Neuzeitliche Bodenbeläge. With their new five track EP release on the Swiss art x conceptual imprint Lustpoderosa the duo presents a thrilling amalgamation of New Beat, Agreppo, Spoken Word art school flavors, echoes of Minimal Wave, classic Electro x TechnoBass and lo-fi Balearic slo-mo Techno which fall together in a quite unusual, unique and highly exciting manner which makes their "Neulust EP" a worthwhile addition to the collection of every thrill seeking DJ out there.

03. Recall IV - Interstate [Mecanica 085]
Once again the Polish Mecanica label is in for a deep dive into the history of early electronic club music, exploring the grey area between NuBeat, Agreppo, ProtoTechno, EBM and Rave with this 16 track compilation album dedicated to the works of the highly influential project Recall IV which, especially due to the incorporation of major hits like "Contrast *Boing Mix" or "Aesthetic", both influential to yours truly as a young dedicated teenage raver, and other tunes like "Bass *Remix", "Aesthetic Part 2" or the ethereal Electro x EBM crossover piece named "Far Away From My Own Land" qualify this one as an important addition to any electronic music fans vinyl collection immediately.
