In Perspective: Andrei Orlov

We caught up with an unsung herald of the contemporary kosmische and synth pop scene in the person of Moscow-based producer Andrei Orlov to lift a corner of the veil on his craft, away from current trends but close to the core of a timeless genre of electronic music that continues to be a source of fascination.

Sordid Sound System : Fear Eats The Soul

Green Door Studio co-owner and engineer, Stuart Evans, resurfaces his Sordid Sound System moniker for another belter of an EP via Glasgow based Invisible Inc. ‘Fear Eats the Soul’ takes us on a global trip as a concept EP made of “four imaginary bands from Detroit, New York, Paris and Munich”. And the results are as rich in history as they are a satisfying listen.

Ricardo Tobar: Red Sea

Ricardo Tobar takes the chance away from the more listening angled album format to roll out a title track with main room aspirations; yet, while ‘Red Sea’ is the obvious headliner, it is the supporting cast that steal a march.

Montezumas Rache and Dominik Von Senger’s soberly-titled ‘EP’ has a lot to offer with its mind-bending elixir of eerie funk, ambientish tropes and drawn bars of mesmeric kraut grooves.

MR TC

MR TC’s mix gives you a proper taste of the ferocious trancey experience at work in his Night Of The Jaguar residency at Glasgow’s School of Art. You’ve been warned.

Mr TC: Surf & Destroy EP

If C. R.

We caught up with Juan, Guido and Kyle as they discuss the album’s creation and raison d’être, studio battle-gear and all-time Kraut and Kosmische classics. We’re also proud to present the LP opener ‘Alpha Moon’ in full stream – a far-stretching mesmeric scud fueled on stellar synth motifs and a relentless bass comber. Lock in!
