2020 - 18 [2020 Records 018 Promo]

Put out on the digital Ambient circuit via the artist run label 2020 Records on July 30th, 2k24 is "18", the eighteenth consecutive album release by label head 2020 in four years. Opening with the roughly 57 minutes spanning "Kohlmeise" we see 2020 on an almost stagnant and washed out, yet somewhat organic, comforting and all embracing No Motion Ambient tip which seems to evolve over the course of eons, totally numbing and dissolving the individual listeners perception of time whereas the second track on this longplayer, "Dompfaff", clocks in at around 34 minutes, providing another extended reality diffusing Ambient whiteout, this time backed by fluttering tectonic low frequency rumbles and carefully employed frequency shifts which slowly, yet steadily turn the whole tune into a more glacial, brittle and icey affair over time. One for the advanced connaisseur of Deep Listening Music, this.

Marta Mist - Windows [Sound In Silence 116]

Released via the long-standing Greek Ambient and beyond staple that is Sound In Silence on September 27th, 2k24 as the labels cat.no. 116 is "Windows", the latest, six tracks and roughly 34 minutes spanning album outing by Marta Mist, a collective musical effort mainly based around a core duo comprised of Gavin Miller a.k.a. worriedaboutsatan and Sophie Miller. Opening with the atmospheric and almost score'esque nocturnal drones and textures of "Allons-y, Mon Ami!" Marta Mist reveal a certainly Dark Ambient-informed musical approach followed by the similarly mystical and hypnotic skeletal PostRock drums and caressing organic bass sequences of "Patches" whereas "Puzzle" leans towards a friendly, almost rural and innocent PostRock variation and probably might be the go-to tune for extended sunset sets for dedicated ChillOut DJs and the likes of due to its airy vibe and subtle underlying catchiness evoking memories of German Post-PostRock outfits like Halma and likeminded bands. Furthermore we see "Otra Vez" on a slightly dubbed out, slightly oriental tip providing a timeless and most perfect soundtrack for a hot summers day out in the desert, "Good Luck, Amigo" is as well meaning and relaxing as its title promises with its twangy guitar melodies, panoramic Ambient layers and playfully arranged FutureJazz drums before "C'Est Tout, Les Amis" waves goodbye with a combination of dreamy piano and romantic, albeit slightly kitschy string arrangements which might fit well into the context of classic ChillOut locations like the infamous Buddha Bar and such.

Various Artists - Netlabel Day 2024 Techno Warriors [Dancefloor Socialism 028 Promo]

Put out on the digital circuit via the ever active Dancefloor Socialism imprint on July 14th, 2k24 is "Netlabel Day 2024 Techno Warriors", a ten track compilation album which sees a variety of artists and projects from the labels current roster making exclusive contributions to this release. Opening with Sascha Müller's "Ibiza" we see the Uelsen-based producer on a deep an playful early 90s early morning Trance tip followed by the ravey, heavily compressed Broken Techno of Stanley Hottek's "Stupid Love" and Ohrchitekt's "Vollpfosten", an absolutely peaktime-oriented high quality Broken Techno x Breakbeat x Wonky Techno affair which also seems to be influenced by certain Dubstep and Bass Music derivatives - think: Neill Landstrumm in his "Bambaataa Eats His Breakfast" era -, whereas The D3VI7 provides raw, functional and uncompromising Techno toolage with "Glue Bond". Furthermore Widerwille brings forth a dry, yet certainly hypnotic and hypereleastic variation of Broken Techno x Phonk with "Entasis", "Temp 9" by Computer 4000 serves dry unconventional Lo-Fi House sporting a playful and ever tripping synth motif as well as raw, basically unprocessed percussion lines and the studio triumvirate of P.T.B.S., Hanzzo & The D3VI7 enters "Space", a realm of hard stomping, purely functional and slightly overcompressed Business Techno sporting deep, hovering and in parts motor city reminiscent space melodies. Furthermore Tiefenrausch contributes "Anatomy", a surprisingly mainstream-oriented and floating TechHouse x (Neo)Trance affair for open air festival crowds whereas "Lost Transmission Planet Earth" by Nitrogene pairs muscular, expertly sculpted Deep Techno drums with washed out stabs and interestingly arranged synth layers building up to create a surprisingly seductive anti-groove for after hours or extended club nights and the final cut that is "Press Start (Edit02)" by Duality Micro & Sascha Müller rounds things off with funky, well cheeky high speed lo-fi Techno well suitable for intimate basement clubs attended by a selected crowd of underground connaisseurs. Quite a selection, this.

Triggs - Du Stehst In Der Ecke (Official Video)

Super raw and intense Industrial-leaning Minimal Synth Wave for broken youths. This is Punk-reframed for 2k24.

Dr. Noisem & The D3VI7 - Nuke Vol. 19 [Nuke The Planet 019 Promo]

The infamous Nuke The Planet imprint is back with a heavyweight collaboration release. "Nuke Vol. 19" - put out on the digital circuit on August 2nd, 2k24 - provides a studio joint venture cooked up by Dr. Noisem and The D3VI7 which are admittedly in for the kill - or better: the overkill. In less than 120 seconds the two artists flesh out their conjunctional take on harsh, electric and surely chaotic Noize feedbacks backed by expertly sculpted, in part Hardcore x Hardstyle leaning midrange drum sequences which are best consumed and x or experienced in the context of relentless strobe fire on heavy Industrial dancefloors. This is a war.

Pakistan Techno Force - Bugs In Space EP [Fresscode Records 017 Promo]

Released via Fresscode Records as the labels cat.no. 017 on July 9th, 2k24 is the "Bugs In Space EP", the latest digital three track single cooked up by the mysterious project named Pakistan Techno Force. Opening with the title track "Bugs In Space" we see the PTF provide a driving and highly functional take on BrokenTechno for peak time workouts, driven by intense and alarming background synths as well as a hypnotic, slightly percussive and ever filtered futuristic main motif which screams T-E-C-H-N-O in caps followed by "Bouncer" which could be described as a lovechild emerged from a liasion of stripped down TechTrance, Heckmann's infamous KnarzTechno variation of the early 2000s and screaming, mechanical synth tones speaking to those still fond of DBX's seminal "I'm Losing Control" or Laurent Garnier's "Astral Dreams" whereas the final cut that is "Randomise" brings forth a powerful, and tool'ish expertly sculpted BrokenTechno x ElectroTech fusion laid down as a raw muscular foundation for trancey, airy synth movements and undoubtedly ravey 90s stabs. Proper good.

Yellow6 - Sometimes It Seems Too Easy, Sometimes It's Just So Hard [Sound In Silence 115]

Released via the Sound In Silence camp operating out of Athens / Greece on September 27th, 2k24 is "Sometimes It Seems Too Easy, Sometimes It's Just So Hard", the latest full length album creation cooked up by long-standing producer x composer John Attwood under his well established Yellow6 moniker. Over the course of nine tracks and a staggering total of 77 minutes runtime Attwood reflects on shifts and changes of his personal life with track titles like "Aiming Low", "Finding Direction", "Restart", "The End Is Near" or "The Waters Rise But We're Still Afloat" providing hints that these changes might not've been for the best whilst the music in itself seems to be rather contemplative and inward looking, opening with the folksy guitar movements and beautiful, yet dramatic background string works of "Aiming Low" followed by sparse, tender and slightly dubbed out Downbeat vibes well suitable for Balearic sunset sessions, dreamy Post-PostRock and PopAmbient as well as more deep instrumental folksyness whereas cuts like "PVC2" enter droning, somewhat unsettling PostRock territories, the "Zygomorph" is comprised of foreboding, densely layered guitars resembling brooding and ever whirling clouds building up on the horizon before a massive storm hits whereas "To The Final" once again brings forth a peaceful and comforting vibe for a closing just to name a few. A truly autumnal album, this.

Stanley Hottek - Six Feed Over [Ghostfloppy Recordings 017]

Another fresh and limited release put out on the circuit via the Floppy Disk-focused Ghostfloppy Recordings imprint is "Six Feed Over", the first ever appearance on the label for Leipzig-based producer named Stanley Hottek. With the sole title track "Six Feed Over" featured on here Hottek presents a hard stomping, somewhat metallic and highly experimental (Wonky)Techno x HardHouse crossover affair built from several expertly layered, carefully sculpted, filtered and arranged bass drums and other percussive elements mixed in with raw and gnarly Industrial-leaning synths as well as noisy lowest-fi vocal samples and an untamed high energy approach somewhat reminiscent of early DJ Enrique-releases on Ladomat 2000, the legendary Tribal Acid meets House of the seminal "Interwaves EP" and other goodness from the 90s. This is a Lobit (live?) jam. Go check!

P.B.R. - Acid Data EP [Psychocandies 121 Promo]

Put out on the digital circuit via the ever active Psychocandies imprint on July 16th, 2k24 is the "Acid Data E.P." which marks the second ever release for the relatively fresh project. Opening with the title track "Acid Data" P.B.R. is on a hard bubbly uptempo Acid tip which provides lively, fast moving and brain melting modulation business for trueskool punters whereas the subsequent "Hard Stacatto" presents a take on what could be filed under the flag of a super raw early 90s Underground Techno foundation which provides a hounded back drop for gooey, ever spiralling and slightly HypnoTrance-inducing 303 lines to begin with and therefore brings much joy to all high energy Acid ravers out there.

2020 - 17 [2020 Records 017 Promo]

Put out on the circuit via the artist run imprint 2020 Records on June 25th, 2k24 is "17", the - guess what... - seventeeth consecutive album release by 2020 since the labels inception in 2k20. Opening with the staggering 40 (!!!) minutes spanning tune "Die Eisprinzessin" we're entering a timeless stream of washed out meandering Ambient beauty defined by a subtle ebb and flow of droning synths and ever so slight harmonic changes whereas "Der Eisprinz" presents an offering of what could be described as nothing short of a bleak and mind-numbing Desolation Ambient whiteout before the final cut "Der Eiskönig" pairs this overall bleakness with comforting, slightly more harmonic warmth and subdued low-end rumblings despite feeling even more minimalist and stripped down than its predecessor. Defo a worthwhile addition to the collection of all fans and followers of the digital Ambient scene, this.

DJ Krime & Andre Gardeja - Dub 01 / Dub 02 [Ghostfloppy Recordings 016]

Released on May 24th, 2k24 as a limited to 50 copies 2x floppy disk edition is "Dub 01 / Dub 02" by DJ Krime & Andrea Gardeja - a release which also marks a new addition to the roster of the underground LoBit label operations of Ghostfloppy Recordings. With "Dub 01" the duo brings on a deep, driving and well atmospheric take on groove-focused peaktime DubTechno which, especially due to its dense layers of percussive elements, provides a subtle, yet distinct, energy boost for advanced Techno floors whereas "Dub 02" presents a straighter, more floating late night variation on the main motif which will speak to all fans and followers of classic Basic Channel vibes, especially due to its reversed hi-hat sequences and subdued, yet unsettling synth drones hidden deep within the mix which, in combination, add a slightly otherworldy tone to the entire production. Go check.

01. DJ Trace & HLZ - Raptor EP [Metalheadz 112]
Both the Metalheadz label as well as DJ Trace have been purveyors of quality Drum'n'Bass for decades and the three tracks on this crystal clear 12" vinyl release defo follow along the lines of this consistency. Timeless, dark, threatening and futuristic all tunes on this turn out to be excellent tools for intense speed rides through the long dark tunnel the genre used to be described as with especially the title track "Raptor" driving crowds forward with its whiplash beats and overwhelmingly vantablack sub-bass movements. This could've also ended up being a mid-noughties No U-Turn release in terms of attitude so those who know will know.

02. Silent Cubes - Sound And Motion EP [LoDubs]
The return of deep Bass Music. The long standing, Portland, OR-based LoDubs imprint presents a fine four track selection of atmospheric, IDM-driven PostGarage, deep Dubstep, stripped down UK Garage derivatives and other goodness, including a surprisingly heavy and Breakstep-leaning, yet somewhat junglistic remix work crafted by UK producer Moy on this one

03. Vian And Merzbow - Inside Richard Serra Sculptures [Modern Obscure Music 048]
A beautiful and deep take on experimental music this is. Two slowly meandering variations of droning Cold Ambient and glacial Noize, both exceeding the 20 minutes mark and providing a surprisingly - given that Merbow is invlvd, though - atmospheric backdrop for focused late night listening sessions in which one can fully zoom out to primordial tectonic movements hidden deep within the mix or feel tingles running down one's spine triggered by ever intensifying midrange crescendoes evoking imaginations of the inside of humongous mountain grinders built out of black, worn down steel or other sci-fi materials of similar properties whilst raspy digital Noize eruptions and sometimes surprisingly intricate and even rhythmic sequences provide an extra thrill for the advanced and avantgarde schooled fan and follower of the genre.

04. CJ Bolland - Camargue / Tokyo [Stroom 084]
"Camargue" is a phenomenon ever since 1992. Neither fitting into the drawer of House or Trance but being both in its very own way, uplifting and catchy as fuck and probably one of the happiest and most playful electronic music productions ever without tapping into cheesyness for one single second. An absolute classic backed by the previously unreleased "Tokyo" which fuses similarly playful uptempo UK Intelligent Techno with elements of both deep Trance, echoes of Detroit Techno and driving hi-hat rides for a peaktime audience.

Sascha Müller - Dumb [Dancefloor Socialism 027 Promo]

Put out on the circuit on July 2nd, 2k24 is "Dumb", a fresh digital two-track single crafted by Uelsen's finest Sascha Müller for the Dancefloor Socialism label. Opening with "Dumb Chimp" Mr. Mueller enters a realm of highly functional, deeply hypnotic UK TechHouse sporting a somewhat bleepy, percussive and Intelligent Techno-leaning main motif whilst following up with the subsequent "Dumb Croc" which brings forth a space-time-defying take on stripped down minimalist lo-fi Acid well suitable for ecstatic Minimal Techno crowds. Quality.

Duality Micro & Sascha Müller - J A M 14.02.2024 [Psychocandies 120 Promo]

Released digitally via Sascha Müller's very own Psychocandies imprint on July 5th, 2k24 is "J A M 14.02.2024", the result of an actual jam session which went down between the label owner and long-standing purveyor of quality electronic music himself and Meppen-based underground producer Manfred Reckers a.k.a. Duality Micro earlier this year. Split into two tracks we see "J A M 14.02.2024 A" on an untamed basement Acid tip fusing raw and busy midrange Acid modulations with wild and surprisingly jazzy percussion rides, heavy feedbacks and almost 'troity stab sequences for the wee hours of the night whereas "J A M 14.02.2024 B" brings on absolute peaktime vibes with its hard-hitting, expertly sculpted bass drums, Chicago jack referencing offbeat percussion elements and shrieking high frequency modulations which are best consumed on dancefloors shrouded in thick fog and a barrage of high-capacity strobe lights. This is good stuff.

Andreas Davids - Beautiful Isolation [Inner Demons Records 178]

Andreas Davids is back on the stateside label Inner Demons Records with another hyper-limited CD-r release, put out on the circuit as an edition of staggering 42 hand-numbered copies these days. Solely sporting the well extended title track spanning pretty much exactly 20 minutes of total playtime this brand new piece sees Mr. Davids on a well explorative tip starting from a place of surprisingly gritty and textural Dark Ambient which quickly dissolves into atmospheric and almost glacial Ambient dronings backed by slowly moving, deep and organic bass meanderings later accompanied by ethereal harmonics, glimpses of glistening hopefulness as well as ominous, well unsettling creaks and contrasting sequences of innate melancholia drowned and subdued in the washed out, gaseous blurriness of overall the sonic tapestry. Defo a recommended one for all collectors of strictly limited Deep Listening Music of almost score'esque qualities. Go check!

Andreas Davids - Zukunftsromane [Audiophob Promo]

Another fresh release cooked up by Andreas Davids - also known as the mastermind behind the famed Xotox project - is "Zukunftsromane", a mini-album put out on the digital circuit via the Audiophob label on August 23rd, 2k24. Rolled out over the course of five tracks Andreas Davids explores a score-oriented take on cold sci-fi Ambient introducing dripping alien caves, retrofuturist dronings, robo-mechanical movements and phaser blips in the opening tune "Der Letzte Funke" before progressing into hostile gaseous atmospheres, icey winds and tense repetitive bleeps with "Gravitation" whereas "Zeitsprung" aims at Ambient / ChillOut dancefloors with its airy and bouncy, yet deep Ambient Trance approach backed by a straight 4-2-the-floor rhythm signature. Furthermore "Interstellar" reflects upon subaquatic dronings and whirling, ever meandering filters in a sonic context once often connected with genre epicentres of the 90s like Liquid Sky Cologne / Electro Bunker Cologne and their various offsprings and side projects before "Der Letzte Funke (Leise)" seems to fully focus on what seem to be percussively dripping liquids in an enormously spaceous cavern backed by a quite organic and rather static midrange drone for a closing. Go check.

Andreas Davids & Sven Phalanx - Die Dritte Macht [Infacted Recordings Promo]

Put out on the circuit via the ever active Infacted Recordings label on August 16th, 2k24 is "Die Dritte Macht", the latest collaboration project cooked up by Andreas Davids a.k.a. Xotox and Sven Phalanx. Featuring three variations of the title track plus the additional cut "Am Ende Der Welt" the digital single opens with the original version of "Die Dritte Macht" which brings on apocalyptic, yet Rave-oriented Electro Industrial backed by a Synthwave-infused sci-fi twist and therefore should easily find its way onto the nations - and especially Berlin-based - NeoRave dancefloors whereas "Die Dritte Macht *Slow" rather provides a slightly vintage sounding take on Space Ambient for ChillOut areas of the early 90s. Furthermore "Die Dritte Macht *Extended Version" is - well... - extended and stretches the driving dancefloor experience out a little longer whilst "Das Ende Der Welt" presents a reprise solely focused on the dreamy, airy main melodic motif of the main cut - something we haven't heard in quite a while with the art of the reprise thought to be gone and vanished for more than three decades now. Intredasting.

baze.djunkiii Charts 10/2k24

01. Tristwch Y Fenywod - Tristwch Y Fenywod [Night School Records 096]
The absolutely mesmerizing debut album by Tristwch Y Fenywod turns out to be a serious candidate for being one of the, if not the, albums of the year 2k24 with its enchanted amalgamation of Welsh RitualFolk as well as subtle infusions of both Goth and echoes of echoes of Industrial influences. Major tunes on here are the ethereal "Blodwyn Gwyrrd", the dreamy and solem "Y Transnewidiad" as well as the unsettling Industrial Folk nightmare vision that is "Gelain Gors". Absolutely essential.

02. Hellfish - Guns Jesus Trucks And Spiderman [Deathchant]
It is... a madness. Gabba Trap for daytime radio abuse, Cut-Up Breakcore, Pop Hardcore and sample collage attacks, TV theme rip-offs and straight forward Ravecore insanity. The most tongue-in-cheek release on the mighty Deathchant label so far and a hard beat driven fuckfest for peaktime Bangface crowds with tunes like "Sushi Rollin" and "We Eat Dogs" being our personal favorites for a reason.

03. Lundin Oil - Exploit Divisions [Northern Electronics 104]
Anthony Linell revives his Lundin Oil alias for a full length album release eight years after its initial longplayer put out on the circuit in 2k16, returning with a highly recommended set of glacial Ambient, subdued and droning mechanical rhythm signatures for icey Electronica sets as well as cold Rhythm Industrial pulses backed by outerworldly sci-fi atmospheres and heavy Noise eruptions for those who know. Excellent.

04. Howie Lee - At The Drolma Wesel-Ling Monastery [Mais Um 060]
Even though rare there are still albums out there which provide a totally new, unexpected and previously unthought of angle on electronic music and this is one of them. On "At The Drolma Wesel-Ling Monastery" Howie Lee pairs the sampled sound of devotional chants of buddhist monks and Chinese classical music with echoes of post-rave atmospheres, various forms of Bassmusic and clearly identifiable influences of Juke x Footwork / 160 to create a highly unique album which could mark the beginning of a new chapter in the Global Bass movement or, in a worst case scenario, vanish into relative obscurity due to a lack of connatural releases out there.

The Secret Garden. A place to chill. A place for deep listening. And a place for experiments. Hamburg-based Radio Flouka-resident baze.djunkiii once again explores the fringes of the electronic music spectrum, working his way from ethereal, wafting Ambient dronage to classic IDM x ChillOut fusion tracks and atmospheric echoes of Downtempo abstractions as well as playful, tongue-in-cheek Electronica and even traces of Dub and Broken Techno for advanced late night dancefloors and beyond. This is a trip.

Clizia Miglianti / Angelo Petraglia - Visions: Homage To William Blake [Aut Records 112]

Released via the Italian label outfit Aut Records on September 18th, 2k24 is "Visions: A Homage To William Blake", the latest conceptual album conceived by vocalist Clizia Miglianti and piano player Angelo Petraglia who, alongside a set of contributing artists and musicians, embark on a sonic journey aiming to bring to life the poetic vision of William Blake in a realm different from poetry and literature, yet embedding excerpts of his original work within the compositions. The result of this approach is a twelve piece album rolled out over roughly 44 minutes, opening with tender, emotional and most beautiful piano ballad that is "Infant Summer" followed by the equally beautiful and romantic "The Fly" presenting a rather perfect amalgamation of Miglianti's velvet voice, sparse piano melodies and both echoes of Jazz as well as Broadway romance drawing inspiration from the era of monochromatic cinema, both paving the way for things to come like the elegic and dreamy rural romance of "Never Seek To Tell Thy Love", the midrange-drone backed ethereal beauty of "The Song Of Los" as well as the large scale panoramic instrumental interlude "The Reunion Of The Soul And The Body", the slightly Modern Classical-infused quasi-Spoken Word piece "I Fear'd The Fury Of My Mind" whereas the closing "Ah! Sunflowers" indulges in lush layers of strings and late summer melancholia as a backdrop for hovering, floating and timeless vocals just to name a few. One well poetic album to share with a loved one over many a candle-lit listening session.
