OSC2N 1 - The Houdini Aubergine EP
MUSTAFA ET MONIQUE
THE HOUDINI AUBERGINE EP
10" VINYL EP, EDITION OF 500 COPIES.
COVER BY STAFFAN BJÖRK @ OSC2N.

1. Pancake Parachute (01:38)
2. Random Intoxication (03:12)
3. Velvet Skies (02:56)
4. Melting On My Tongue (03:01)
5. The Birds (partII) (02:28)
6. Monaural Tone Revolver (02:49)

The first release from the fantastic Swedish pop-explosion Mustafa Et Monique is a six track 10" vinyl record. The Houdini Aubergine EP is a fuzzy excursion that takes off in Brian Wilsons garden while checking his vegetables. Wait to be suddenly hit by a monster surf with swirling melodies and harmonies that will bring you out tripping in a reversed Eno-land.

Proceed beyond the coloured valleys and fields of a silver dream, catching up with the speed of sound in a surging merry-go-round of intensity. Sixteen minutes and one flipside later your safe back in the garden of delightful enjoyment! The debut from these astounding Swedes is a lo-fi knockout. An all-engulfing battle between winding guitars and heavy drumming. Still with gentle melodies wrapping up their detuned magic!
OSC2N 2 - LISTEN TO THE MOON
MAJESSIC DREAMS
LISTEN TO THE MOON
CDEP, EDITION OF 500 COPIES.
COVER BY JESSICA BREITHOLTZ BJÖRK.

1. Still Inside (02:20)
2. When You Sleep (04:33)
3. Different Light (03:41)
4. Changes Or Lies (02:34)
5. Around Here (01:47)
6. Listen To The Moon (05:56)

The fabulous colours delivered by Mats and Jessica Majessic hits us in waves of pure love as we float through spheres and black star galaxies. Subtle melodies reveal the texture in the heat of the sound and extend our dream into twenty-one minutes of sweeping harmonies. As we smoothly lean back the band examines the refractions and dislocated frequencies of echoes from 1930's country, suggestive drones, jazzy cut-up's and beautiful brittle vocals. Majessic Dreams emphatically paint their skies in thick layers, using fragments from a wide musical spectre. The abstracted tunes on this six track CDEP are minimal and close, yet still way out there expanding the periphery!

Quoted from Terminal Products; "The music of Majessic Dreams is the music you will hear in Vegas just before the Apocalypse."

12" VINYL LP, EDITION OF 250 COPIES.
COVER BY ROBIN WATKINS & NINA CANELL.

3. Inversion Illusion (02:28)
4. Reversal (02:27)
5. Outwards (Mõbius Twist) (02:37)
6. Obscured By Light (19:23)

The New Heat/Obscured by Light is two projects by Nina Canell and Robin Watkins. The New Heat takes the shape of five slow songs which employ sleepy singing birds and magnetic song-writing. The eerie vocals and swirly guitars are integrated with droned organs, weightless drumming and various other sonic snippets. Obscured by Light derived from an object-based sound installation commissioned for the exhibition Obscured by Clouds (Temple Bar Gallery & Studios, Dublin 2004). Organs, sleep-machines and various prepared instruments/objects are weaved into one continuous 20-minute spectra-animated pop drone.

10. Closest Moment (02:45)
11. Memory Of Spring (01:30)
12. Majessic Dreams (34:44)

Majessic Dreams, the magnetic encounter between two dreamers, lives in an everlasting realm where reality meets fantasy, where future meets past and where black meets white. Their music is a sphere of hidden fears that come to the surface to be healed, and where love is expressed ecstatically yet with subtlety. Every feeling is seen and heightened. Flourishing acoustic sounds blended and intertwined with warm washes of minimal electronics. Pure, refined tunes and swirling vocals creates short image sequences and vivid colourful textures. This is 12 tracks of truly innovative, folky pop drones and extended sonic evocations with a northern twist.
OSC2N 6 - Luftkluster/Luftfluks
LUFTKLUSTER/LUFTFLUKS
12" VINYL LP, EDITION OF 250 COPIES.
COVER BY ROBIN WATKINS & NINA CANELL.

1. We Pulled The Roots (03:24)
2. Accumulus (03:42)
3. Eye Myth (03:25)
4. Howling Holes (02:21)
5. Under Nebula (02:13)
6. In Parts (02:35)
7. Dawn Chorus (02:24)
8. Fluks (02:34)
9. Stråken (02:24)
10. Woods (02:24)
11. Isblock/Iceberg (02:25)
12. Half The Pace Of A Given Place (03:26)

Luftkluster/Luftfluks is the second album in an ongoing series of LP editions by Canell & Watkins. Following The New Heat/Obscured by Light projects, the new album further expands the duo's joint commitment to generate subjective fluctuations between structured and free-form melodies. Combining found objects, instruments and other analogue mechanics with organ, guitar, voice and custom built percussion, the LP is as volatile as the material it is made from.

The open songs of Luftkluster/Luftfluks hover in midair, occasionally interrupted by angular signals from electro-physiological instruments or the hypnotic humming of a 6.25 meter tape-loop. It flows from vocal interludes to fluxing fluorescent noise, blending rootless percussion with damaged flickers of electric drone organs. The unpredictable nature of Luftkluster/Luftfluks humid melodies exists somewhere in between spontaneity and determinacy; a quiet, ephemeral collage of alternating altitudes.
OSC2N 7 - The Invisible Colours of...
LUVA
THE INVISIBLE COLOURS OF DO RE MI
COMPACT CASSETTE, EDITION OF 100 COPIES.
COVER BY STAFFAN BJÖRK @ OSC2N.

1. Paula Pollo Pow (04:11)
2. Summer Caught My Eyes (05:44)
3. Sum Summer Sum (03:22)
4. The Hidden Colour (02:34)
5. Angel of the Sea (03:36)
6. Pans Ivy Pillow (04:37)
7. Gena (03:22)
8. Ruby Shine (04:28)

The Invisible Colours of Do Re Mi is a new compact cassette by the artist Luva - taken alias for composer Gustav M Karlsson - and the latest in a row of sound recordings made public and presented for the masses in a varying range of digital mediums as well as magnetic tapes.

During his two thousand and eight winter hibernation the composer was exposed for and experienced the following sensations, which - for your full enjoyment - has been preserved, translated and interpreted into eight rhytmical sound pieces:

"The colours inside the hood are visible, but hidden behind strange whirls of 'light'. The moment you find and approach them, the tune starts to shift in structure and adapt to your own scale and temperature. Small unstable sound-elements of the least visible colours, modulates and gain softness in the revolutionary apparatus of the hood, and finally - through the suggestive phones of singularity - projects its invisibility in a repetitive twitter of Do Re Mi."
OSC2N 8 - Apocalypso
MOON & SUN
APOCALYPSO
7" VINYL EP, EDITION OF 200 COPIES.
COVER BY MONICA TORMELL.

1. Hunt (02:52)
2. Howl (03:38)
3. Ashes (02:54)
4. Hollow (02:46)

Sometimes day, sometimes night. Accompanied by crickets, dogs, sirens, cars, birds, frogs, church bells, bats & horses the recordings by Moon & Sun took place in the garden of the IBB house on Curacao. Constantly guarded, distracted and in league with Bruno and Tequila. Lonesome, gloomy vibrations interlaced with Caribbean tunes into a stream of Apocalypso music.
OSC2N 9 - Evoking Fableous Ocean
LUVA
EVOKING FABLEOUS OCEAN
COMPACT CASSETTE, EDITION OF 100 COPIES.
COVER BY STAFFAN BJÖRK @ OSC2N.

1. Do Re Mi Sleeps (0:56)
2. Sparks in the Sea (4:30)
3. Do melt the Sun (4:42)
4. Deep Below (5:59)
5. Safe under Sea (2:50)
6. Summoning (3:48)
7. Fluteous (1:15)
8. A Wide Continuous Surface (8:20)

July 18, 2010. Oneirological experiment #3 (Peter Henning), excerpts from introductory research notes: "Evoking Fableous Ocean; aim: to catch the fleeting essence of L sound below the threshold of conscious perception. [...] Pressing the play button, already lying down - limbs slowly softening, focus descending inwards [...]"

Soulful jazz ballads juiced through cheap chorus pedals - sounds of brooding doves mutating with prismatic calypso tunes - urban planning methods applied to audio sequencing. The entity known and revered as Luva is already famed from two previous audio cassettes, though expert critics unanimously agree on this, the third installment, being it's most refined effort yet to have duplicated on magnetic tape. From the initial exposures of hidden geometrical configurations and soaring tropical dream cities, through the tetractystic hymnal of the sequel, we now find ourselves scuba diving the methaporic underwaters of coralline safe havens and oceanous depths.

Thoroughly researching the turquoise Caribbean beachscapes of the mind, Luva dishes out a series of mind-bending aquatic jams conjugated with tender sampler studies and maritime electronics. (Meanwhile, the secretive Do Re Mi sleeps tightly under care of pink sands and lush summer breezes...) The hits relentlessly keep on coming - implicit bossa breaks keeping the sweat up while subtly implementing Luva's interstellar pop music into your perceptive faculties. These are true hydrospheric gold sounds tailored for loose t-shirts and never-ending streams of rosé.

Darrk Circuits Fadead Waves
Don't miss the CLR release of the Kompjotr Eplektrika CD Darrk Circuits Fadead Waves.

As quoted from their website;

"Debris of found instruments, gears and circuits are examined by the split personalities of Kompjotr Eplektrika. The result is damaged electronic brainwave affecting music, injecting images of a dystopic future that oscillates into an apocalyptic dancefloor!"
