Press Info:
There was a time when to die was something slightly different from what it is today. Back in the last days of the middle age, some hidden monk was concerned about how to die properly, according to the catholic standarts of that era, so he wrote a book that was a cornerstone in that period. This has been the leitmotiv and ispiration in the concept that drives this album, the Ars Moriendi book from 1415, a book that gave some clues about how to die properly, avoiding lack of faith, despair, impatience, avarice or spirituel pride, all those actually track titles in this compendium.

Album starts with Impatience a short atmospheric drone sets the path to post industrial mayhem, based on a continuous and obsessive metallic sequence that drives the angst over a dirty rhythm workout until the textures go on top after several bars.

Rules of behaviour breaks the beat into metallic hits as starting point, then more percussive layers add to the main beat until the dark pads take over mixing hate with beauty on a grey canvas.

Despair return to adrenaline, icreasing the tempo, running unstoppable on a relentless sequence with skeleton beats as a driver.

Speculum acts as a sequel from the first track, same sequence different rhythm, extending the anxiety feeling but with a cleaner groove, again a few elements make everything run smoothly no fillers, just tensión.

Lack of faith keeps on with the beat as fundamental component, based on a cemented kick and breathing components that grow during the running time.

Avarice returns to harsh kicks and martial sincopation having distortion as the main element until Fm percussions shine on top.

Spiritual pride is the adrenaline shot in this album, obessive dry sequences, harsh kicks and razor hats in a direct floor burner.

Closing the travel, The search for identity goes underwater: cavernous landscapes and absence of brightness with a pulsating sub frequency doing the low end, while drones and obscure sound design make the rest.

Unthought Dream

04.
Never Think About It, Thanks
(Vâyu Remix)

 

Press Info:
When Shkedul came up with this 2-tracker, it really was a no-brainer! “Unthought Dream” starts the EP in full force combining energetic drums and echoed stabs, for a serious club banger. “Never think about it, thanks” goes a bit deeper, with a relentless kick-bassline combo. The hihats are keeping the energy high while moody pads in the background add to the haunting atmosphere.

Alongside these two gems, you will find a cinematic orchestration from Paris-based and close friend Boskøw, plus a deep and dubby variation from our mainstay Vâyu.

Recent releases may have given hints that NORITE was just about deep techno, here is the proof that we can be much more.

Dispersion

02)

Enidan

 

Press Info:
‘Dispersion’ is an EP deep in style, talent and wonder. Embellishing the underground kudos of Berlin-based techno DJ and producer AVION, owner of the hotly tipped, and renowned imprint Crossing, Dispersion is an eclectic mix of cerebral, uncompromising and colorful techno. Title track ‘Dispersion’ is a gleaming display of spacious dancefloor beats; melancholic, yet industrial. ‘Real’ is clinical, functional techno, emulating some of The Wizard’s influential magic. ‘Inverse’ blends together a contemporary approach to sonic aptitudes, while remaining a strictly dancefloor and body orientated, while ‘Enidan’ a colorful moment of ambient beauty, plays the EP out.

It is the first release on Marcel Fengler’s regarded, techno imprint IMF in 2017. ‘Dispersion’ is an ambitious, and unique EP, from a true underground –and mysterious – talent. The EP’s style embodies the bright, hypnotic and pulsing music that has characterized his releases to date on Crossing. Talking about the release, Fengler states, “He got my attention after some pretty strong releases on his own imprint Crossing. I felt that this was something I didn’t have on my label, but still reflected the idea of IMF.”
