Press Info:
SHDW & Obscure Shape launch new label Mutual Rytm with powerful eight-track V/A “Federation Of Rytm I”, featuring VIL & Cravo, Lars Huismann, Grindvik and more.
Favourites for many within today’s modern techno landscape, Stuttgart-based pairing Marco Blasi and Luigi Urban, aka SHDW & Obscure Shape, continue to grow their profile and position as artists leading the current new wave of techno. Having launched their first label From Another Mind in 2014, releasing material from themselves alongside remixes from the likes of Rodhad, James Ruskin and Dax J, early December welcomes the arrival of a new project and a second imprint to the fold, Mutual Rytm.
Showcasing a new dimension of techno and electronic music, celebrating originality and innovation by combining timeless cuts from the past with cutting edge sounds of the present and the future, the label will serve as a breeding ground for new artists alongside established talent and legends from the scene. Opening the imprint in style, the label bosses head up the first-ever release and the first V/A “Federation Of Rytm I” as they welcome a selection of new and established talent.
“Since the beginning of the global pandemic, we have been diving deep into the roots of our music and working on the aesthetics of our sound. That’s when we realized that now is the right time to start a new project which differs from FAM, in both musical and artistic direction. The project will showcase a new dimension that aims to channel the authentic perspectives of both established and up-and-coming talents. With our new label, we want to give all artists the opportunity of musical freedom and expression of their versatility as producers. It is an honour to accompany the young artists on their careers, to see them grow and to help them in their development as musicians.” – SHDW & Obscure Shape
The duos rolling opener “Conquest Of Paradise” quickly sets the tone and builds to reveal a classy and slick offering, combining rich stabs with tough drums and sharp hats, while Invexis keeps the tempo high as he weaves escalating synths and pacy kicks across “Elektronenwind”. VIL & Cravo combine on the jacking and lively “Apolonia Loop”, as eerie synths work amongst warped vocals across a tweaked out peak-time effort, before Alarico keeps the energy levels up throughout the relentless funk of “I’m Into You”.
The second half of the package sees Lars Huismann enter the fray with the no-nonsense, snaking grooves of “Hyper Dub”, with Nicolas Vogler’s “Sauva Bite” fusing hypnotic tones with straight regimented claps for an intense yet playful ride through sounds and sonics. “Your Dry Lips” switches up the aesthetic as Grindvik journeys down a wormhole of metallic percussion and warping low-ends, before closing the show with authority via Stigmata’s grinding and menacing offering “Gestas”.
