Florian Kupfer talks up “Unfinished”

Along with the full-stream of his new ‘Unfinished’ EP, we caught up with Florian Kupfer as he talks up the record’s raison d’être, his background as a church chorist and his special relationship with the Roland Juno 106.

Eleven Into Fifteen

The tracks that glance backwards in this 130701 compilation remind the listener of the now familiar sounds that the label helped to invent. But it is the pieces that look forward, which sound new and exciting, that gesture towards the roads yet to be travelled.

Premiere

Premiere: Nebulo – Rules

Following on from the first episode of his ‘Safari Suites’ released last year via Parisian label Odd Frequencies, Nebulo steps up with the second volume of his heavy-battered jungle trek on the boundary-pushing Seagrave, bursting the frontiers between brain music and intuitive body language through eight cuts of dense, archaic techno outbursts.

Premiere

Premiere: Sad City – Smoke

Gary Caruth’s debut solo album as Sad City, released on July 29th via Emotional Response and Meda Fury, makes for a particularly enticing journey into the producer’s elegiac post-urban universe, allowing his supple blends of ambient and breathable electronica to fully develop. Stream the brightly-hued ‘Smoke’ within.

Beatrice Dillon / Karen Gwyer

The new Beatrice Dillon / Karen Gwyer split is a study in the ways a track can be pulled apart and reconstructed, a split release that does that rare thing of presenting two artists sonically distinct but somehow connected through concept.

Unsound Dislocation Project: Announcement part 2

After unveiling a first wave of names for their Dislocation Project which is said to focus on “exploring the collapsed relationship between periphery and centre, the shifting idea of borders, and the specificity of place”, Unsound just revealed the second part of the events’ line-up, which’ll be staggered between 2016 and 2018 all around the globe.

Pavel Milyakov: Yalta

A record simultaneously so lo-fi yet well-polished is a rare combination. And it doesn’t feel overthought in the slightest – an organic and impulsive journey to the coast, unplanned and exciting. And considering the creative output Milyakov enjoys while in this unique, pine-blessed region beside the sea – it must be something in the air.

Premiere

Premiere: Pjoni – VVR Asylum

Exploring the fringes of listening ease and audio curves, Pjoni’s ‘Liminal Zones’ dares going in places few want to investigate nowadays. Don’t expect a proper rhythm, no groove, no mellifluous harmony. Stream the arrythmic ‘VVR Asylum’ in full within.

Robert Lippok : Open Close Open

Lippok’s EP was originally released on Raster Noton back in 2001, and receives a deserved reissue on clear wax complete with an additional bonus track. Expectations of 15 year old electronic music can sometimes be low yet Flau’s tasteful choice proves excellent.

Terraforma: A World For The Senses

The mystical bond between nature and sound has proven once again that music is not only something you hear but a physical vibration that shakes both the earth and skies in one go. Terraforma gave birth to an idyllic world free of the bourns that would impede its expansion to weave the sound and universe as one.

Unsound Toronto x Luminato Festival

A wave of furious, dusted-up and dishevelled splendour that came over the Hearn Generating Station in Toronto on the weekend June 10th – as the venerable festival institution Unsound was invited to curate two days worth of programming at a venue that came off as a vast, dystopian wonderland.

Michal Turtle: Phantoms Of Dreamland

Following their hugely successful 12″ released last year – a sublime slab of proto-house and a fine reintroduction to Turtle’s music – ‘Are You Psychic?’ – the eighties synth exponents of Music From Memory are back with a full-length of unreleased Turtle tracks.
