STRFLL - Summer Minimix

Summer is just around the corner, one can think that's the reason why I stopped posting regularly. Truth is, I've had no internet at home for two weeks now, so my blogging got reduced to whatever I manage to put together after work at the office. Luckily STRFLL makes it easy for me with his new short and sweet mixtape collecting some of his latest productions and remixes, and combining them with sick tunes from Dirtr4t, SALEM, and Burlapper. That Montoya remix is ill! Love the fact that you can download the tape, get it from SC and make sure to give it a like.

Cult Member - Moncler Monster

Canadian producer Cult Member returns with a new single "Moncler Monster", that explores lo-tempo post-dancehall motifs, steering more towards Palmistry and DJ Python territories instead of lo-fi house that may be normally associated with his sound. Grab the track here.

Montoya † - Stranger To Myself // video

I wrote about the song a while ago, but now we get a music video from Montoya. Good vibes.

Zlutz - Dazed And Consumed

Industrial mayhem from Brighton's ZLUTZ, take no prisoners techno mutation. Get it here.

Pvty Kerry - NonGrasping

Pvty Kerry dropped a new release a few weeks ago, it took me a while to delve into it, but better late than never. "NonGrasping" consists of three tracks that sit on the hip-hop leaning outskirts of the witch house sound. Slower tempos, gloomy soundscapes, processed vocals - all form a great counterbalance to waves of EDM mediocrity pumped by some channels. Pvty has been at the frontline of the witchy, dark underground for over a decade now, and there's no stop button in sight.

Check out the (not) EP below, and buy it here.

Vascha - Earthly Delights

"Earthly Delights" is the second single from VASCHA's upcoming album, inspired by the Garden of Earthly Delights painted by Hieronymus Bosch. Neo-future hyperclub joint, one for Yen Tech fans. Vascha will play a live gig in London on June 18th, looking forward to see them there! Buy here.

Fiesta En El Vac​í​o & Helen Island - Atarraya

First collaborative EP from French/Argentinian singer Luna Maria Cedrón (Fiesta En El Vacío) and French producer Helen Island (also known as Trigger Moral). "Atarraya" brings to mind the latin Bala Club collective, minimal works of Palmistry and pop appeal of Rosalia. Mellow post-dancehall vibes.

Spirit Shrine - Thirdfl00r

Spirit Shrine is a witch house artist from Seattle, Washington. Their latest album "Eaten Alive By The Perfect Lover" came out last month, but it's the track "Thirdfl00r" that didn't make the cut there is the one I want to share here first. It sounds like something that crawled out of 2010 blogspot-era. Spooky joint that merges dark ambient mood with low-key trap beat and melancholic synth line. Grab it here.

White Ring - Final Fantasy

New witchy heat dropped today on White Ring's bandcamp. Get the single here.

Crave - Recoil

Came across this well-hidden EP from CRAVE that apparently is available only on Japanese Amazon store. You can stream it on SC though. Wild. Lockpicking music, as per cover art, anxious beats and evil soundscapes.

Edit. As of today (June 12), "Recoil" is now on Bandcamp.

Kutmah - Digital Transit Blackout

The man, the legend, Kutmah is back with a new beattape that landed on Bandcamp a couple of days ago. And what a treat it is. There's a wonderful backstory that goes with "Digital Transit Blackout" on the page, so peep it here. Ruff styles and gritty beats guaranteed (but then there's also this tropical remix of MF Doom's "Meatgrinder", so there's that). Dopeness.

Buy the tape here, stream in full down below.

RODA - A Sea Of Mirror Carpets

RODA is the new collaborative project from two experimental musicians Ross Scott-Buccleuch and Daniel Vujanic. Their album "A Sea Of Mirror Carpets" got picked up by Moonside Tapes and it totally bewitched me. Droning soundscapes interact and intersect with ambient motifs and field recordings, creating an impression you're listening to a nature documentary soundtrack. This is easily my fav releases from Moonside since their Background Character tape. Get it!

Buy the cassette version of "A Sea Of Mirror Carpets" here, and stream the album in full below.

Nexus_0 - Pure Luv

Second official single from London's Nexus_0 "Pure Luv" sees the band continue their tek-punk journey. This track sounds like it's been baked with the idea of rescoring "Matrix" in mind - incredible. Support here.

Friday 7 June 2024

STRFLL - Killer

STRFLL aced yet another cover, this time SALEM's 2010 classic "Killer". The original fuzzy instrumental got polished here, but the vocals on the other hand got grittier and more raw. Great stuff. Download and support here.

Pharmacist - Black Day // video

Insanely good video single promoting the epic album by Pharmacist "Kill Everyone Now". Dark as fuck, produced and edited by Zergarden.

Dirtr4t - BloodOnMy$inglet

Dirtr4t is ramping up his output with this new slo-gazing witch-house gem "BloodOnMy$inglet". Album coming soon, stream the single here.

Wednesday 5 June 2024

Montoya - Stranger To Myself

New screwgazing banger from Montoya got released today, and what a beautiful joint it is. "Stranger To Myself" samples Deadends' "Past People" and features rap from the man himself. Grab the single here.

Voodoo Crystals - Always​/​Forever

Adam is a gift that keeps on giving, here's his out-of-nowhere new EP "Always/Forever". Two fairly long compositions that are built from cosmic ambient manipulations and outerspace new age melodies, both with a hint of underwater synth pulsations. Silver Surfer music. Get it here.
