Interplay by YlangYlangCatherine Debard has been active as YlangYlang since 2012, a creative staple in the Montreal music community. She’s worked frequently as a collaborator, but continues developing her unique interstitial solo recordings through a variety of labels and performance experiments. Inspired in part by the writing of Danish poet Inger Christensen, in Debard’s words Interplay explores “how we are shaped and shaping our experience at the same time” and “how free we can be within our own limitations.”Full of deceptive contradictions and some of Debard’s most mature orchestration, she describes it as the final instalment in a trilogy focused on relationships. After albums focused on the external world, this time she turns her attention more intensely on “the self.” It’s a fitting meditation, reflecting on how we adapt and survive as individuals in dark times. Interplay’s warming combination of synths, field recordings, and backing instrumentation weave together toward balance. Here the mixture of stern and soft, dark and light, is seamless.

Grim Headlights features the latest acid mayhem by Peel MD member and Nerike Primate labelhead A. Stantz. Utterly advanced bassline tools for the dark techno clubs. All tracks recorded deep in the rural area of Sweden.

Ethereal Logic, the experimental project of in-house producers S.Moreira and Indi Zone, returns with another extraordinary trip, this time accompanying their characteristical exploratory soundscapes with hypnotic tribalistic patterns.

New label by Innershades, presenting banging house tracks with a raw edge!
