YUKI is the debut solo record by Basel-based multidisciplinary artist Yanik Soland. Inspired by film scores and sound design, YUKI is a 40 minute audio-piece in 11 chapters. Musical characters, each assigned a specific sound (such as a sampled quarter tone cembalo or synth voices) reappear across the chapters. With a background playing bass in bands, Soland utilises various collaborative modes on YUKI: his partner Marianna Angel appears on overdubbed iPhone-recorded piano, Stefan Tcherepnin plays guitar over one chapter, and a rehearsal recording with Gleb Glonti forms the canvas for another. YUKI--the name Soland's parents had planned to give him, if he were a girl--is Japanese for snow, snow-princess or luck, and is here used as an alter ego within Soland's practice. YUKI's touchstones include Laurie Spiegel, Mark Fisher, Ruins, Dean Blunt, Maryanne Amacher, Tyler The Creator, Heather Leigh and Gyorgi Ligeti.

Sex tapes from Mars' third release comes in the form of 4 joyous hits of euphoria courtesy of Australian party-starter, Aldonna.Angel Numbers excitedly bounces and bounds through its tracklist and the numerous blissed-out grooves within it. The EP kicks off with the psychedelic, poem-sampling 'Divine Time' before switching to the driving rhythms and glistening synths of 'Ikigai' (featuring Sam Alfred).On the B-side, Aldonna dedicates the airy keys and phasing delays of 'Ella' to a friend who encouraged her to keep on dreaming. Finally, Cromby takes 'Divine Time' and reduces it down to its raw elements for clubland functionality whilst still retaining the threads of the originals buoyant tonality.A love letter to her friends and her self, this is trance music at its most hopeful. Get those hands in the air and smile.
