  • JEGA :: Planet-Mu (*LIVE*)

    847 image 1
    Manchester, England’s Jega moves from fidgety electro beatitudes
    to moody atmospheric introspection. With increased mastery of his
    equipment. Jega is just one man, Dylan Nathan, an architecture-school
    classmate of Richard James (Aphex Twin) and Mike Paradinas (U-ZIQ).
    He shares with them many of the same musical concerns, but didn’t
    get around to releasing his work commercially as quickly as they did.
    He released his first EP in 1996 on Skam (original home to Boards
    of Canada), and in 1998 released Spectrum on Paradinas’s Planet-Mu
    label (and, later, Matador). Spectrum was a jarring view across the
    landscape of electronic music, more rollercoaster than Sunday drive,
    resulting in the cloying label “drill n bass.” In contrast, Geometry flows
    smoothly and more melodically from vista to vista, merging staccato
    808 rhythmic workouts, digital swing, analog atmospherics, jittery
    electro-hop, and myriad other sounds into a dark and rather melancholy
    work. Dylan is also a licensed pilot, BMX fanatic, computer hacker,
    and a professional animator.

  • PHOENECIA :: Schematic/Warp (*LIVE*)

    847 image 2
    Appropriating their name from (probably) the first culture of the Old
    World to explore the New, Phoenecia, aka Joshua Kay and Romulo
    Del Castillo, was inaugurated in Miami, Florida, USA in 1997. Phoenecia’s
    recordings echo the phenomena in the slow contemplative way the
    music evolves, experimental techno rhythms emerging from strangely
    glutinous sounding electronic textures. Initially overtly influenced by
    Warp Records’ duo of wayward electronica trailblazers Autechre and
    the Aphex Twin, Phoenecia received early acclaim for Randa Roomet,
    a superb 12-inch double pack for the same then Sheffield, England-based
    label. On their subsequent self-released album, Kay and Del Castillo’s
    inspirations were more heavily submerged and less readily identifiable.

    The duo themselves asserted dub – or at least dub’s studio methodology
    – as their main creative precursor. Certainly, Kay and Del Castillo
    draw from dub’s impulse to experiment with noise. The pair previously
    recorded under the Soul Oddity moniker, releasing an album and a
    series of 12-inch singles for the US major label Astralwerks. Kay and
    Del Castillo’s subsequent own avant electronic label Schematic was
    reportedly initiated after Astralwerks staff “used the word ‘no’ too
    often” in conversations with the duo. Their Miami-based label has
    issued tracks by artists such as Otto Von Schirach and Delarosa And
    Asora as well as Phoenecia remixes by electronic music illuminati
    such as Richard Devine, Autechre, Ectomorph, and Push Button
    Objects. Kay and Del Castillo also notably record independently of
    each other under the respective alter-egos of Jeswa and Takeshi Muto.

  • OTTO VON SCHIRACH :: Schematic (*LIVE*)

    847 image 3
    Currently on tour with Skinny Puppy, deafening audiences and
    defying protocol, Otto Von Schirach returns in ’04 with a freshly-lubed
    full-length to give electronica another ghetto suppository. The follow
    up to 2002’s Chopped Zombie Fungus (Schematic), Global Speaker
    Fisting
    is from the underground’s underground: it’s the twenty-eyed
    electrified monstrosity living in the darkest, deepest sewers of the
    hardcore avant-garde. Moving from death metal send-ups to plagues
    and biotech disasters, Von Schirach’s fourth album is easily his finest
    and most accomplished record to date.

  • EIGHT FROZEN MODULES :: Force Inc/Planet-Mu (*LIVE*)

    847 image 4
    Ken Gibson (Eight FM) explores the boundaries of sonic bliss, scaling
    and shaping sounds, creating erratically cohesive streams of audio
    and data subjected to his fondling fingertips. Rhythms are sculpted to
    the point where time signatures are indistinguishable and irrelevant.
    His dedication to the re-engineering of sound results in him seldom
    venturing far from his studio, but he uses this self-imposed cabin
    fever to his advantage, by creating a hybrid of sound that can bounce
    from giggling mania to panicked oblivion, while never losing the listeners
    interest.

  • RD x TRICHOME :: E.L.M. Conceptions (2×2 DJ Set)

    847 image 5
    For the curators of E.L.M., time exists only as a measure of one’s
    creativity. Their concepts aren’t about size, profit, or notoriety.
    They create because they love it, they promote because they
    believe in it and the only rule by which they govern their own
    artistic success is to remain infinitely challenged. With the help
    of p a x, and the kindness of many close and dedicated friends,
    the Experimental Liquor Museum (E.L.M.) continues to give hope
    for a musical future in a world wrought with epic trance anthems
    and hollow glitz hop.
