Jacques Malchance – LoopRevil (2007)




  • Electronic pop 
  • Alternative dance 
  • Post-disco 
  • Yacht pop 
  • Synth-pop 
  • Nu jazz 
  • Electro pop 
  • Acid jazz 
  • Breakbeat

Comment: oh yeah, that's cool. Rome, Italy-born Jacques Malchance's sophomoric release is really cool, you can feel a real life behind these more or less twisted yet velvety synths and drum machines because all 10 tracks are performed and recorded live in a studio in Liverpool, UK. It is for one's soul and body, furthermore, it integrates the both dimensions of your body. I would like to imagine of how the artist used to rush behind the machines by manipulating hastily yet adeptly with knobs, keys and pads. Such a sort of sonic wizardry is being so charming. It is an example of how machines can be humane, at least so much as humane as a human being could be because the final result indicates you are going to be a better human being after the listening of it. One can hear soul, nu jazz, and yacht pop influenced synth-pop over there. At times more aggressive electro and breakbeat-induced rhythms will switch on to verify on the rule of an exception confirms a rule. In a word, it is a new pace of synth-pop over there having just a little in common with the classical subgenre. And it is even more a case regarding the creating year of 2007. Of course, we as human beings have been cyborgs for a while and today we create and are surrounded by a relatively dry autotune rap/trap shit which is a quite obtuse stuff. However, Malchance's sound is exuberant and positively magniloquent. The catchy soulful and dance-appealed outing is a bit in the discography of Upitup.

Porzellan – Mountains Cycles (2008)




  • Experimental electronica 
  • Ambient 
  • Minimal techno 
  • Abstract
  • Glitchtronica 
  • Avant-electronica 
  • Drone

Comment: It is said that sit down, close your eyes, listen to the mountain's birth, listen them rising, remain there forever. Indeed, it is a fine introduction by their French imprint Abyssa into this 12-track issue where silence, as it is said, is the most beautiful instrument. Indeed, nature is something unique and monumental and an artist's ambition to relate to it through his/her oeuvre it could be an immense challenge in any cases. I am convinced that an artist's fancy to record natural sounds to convey them to other people with intention to bring nature to their apartment through loudspeakers it used to be a naive, fallible idea. Because nature is an environment with an innumerable amount of sounds, perceptions and dimensions which all together establish a singular, unrepeatable phenomenon. Of course, if an artist's purpose is closely related to mix it with artificial sounds and subsequently synthesise something transgressive then I am going to say yes. This album is the latter case. This set of a 39 minute is an austere and minimal glimpse into the heart of an electronic genre where the basic algorithms are not unveiled only but also magnified in front of us. The examples are fine – one can hear swaying drones and agitated ambient shards and minimally pulsating techno vibes and roughly droning impulses.

Psychotic Aliens – Disoluciòn de Todo (2017)




  • Avant-garde 
  • Experimentalism 
  • DIY 
  • Hard rock 
  • Improvised noise 
  • Freeformfreakout 
  • Improvised music 
  • Lo-fi 
  • Psych-rock

Comment: Psychotic Aliens is a collective based on noise, improvisation and the absolute lack of foreseeable schemes. Its members vary according to the disposition of the day, the mood of the continent and the astral possibilities. And the title can be translated as Dissolution Of Everything. However, in this case it is a positive case because it does result positively rather than providing adverse outputs. Resulting in arts used to be almost always a positive outcome with purgative and relieving side effects. And just shedding a glimpse upon the cover print one is going to understand what they mean. Lots of distracted noisy shards and rusty echoes, accidental guitar chords and cheap synth-based roundabouts. At times it chimes as if coming from a rehearsal room being dwelled by lunatics who like to play psychedelic noise and garage rock with the seeds of hard rock. It is like a lo-fi/demo version of Tago Mago. This 9-track issue is a part of the discography of Cieliro Diystro.

Fortadelis – Cinematique (2018)




  • Kosmische musik 
  • Conceptual 
  • Cinematic 
  • Electronic music 
  • Berlin School 
  • Epic

Comment: within the blog I have commented on such Fortadelis` albums as Overdub Session [Jazzed Up], and Stimulus (2017), although it is just a little drop within a bigger pound. If you are going to visit the Croatian artist`s Jamendo site then you will find nearby 20 issues over there. Cinematique as the title hints itself at it might be about a film score or at least to be inspired by its possible concept and on the other side the purpose of it may be to create something velvety and moody for the soul of a listener. Thirdly, a soundtrack could be thought either for a real film score or a conceivable one. In fact, Fortadelis` 7-track issue embraces all the aforementioned intentions and purposes to create a fascinating listening experience due to providing majestic and fantasy-ridden journeys to sweep around one`s deepest imagination-bound spheres. Yeah, it makes sense via its halcyon yet arcane arcs where the grass will be ever greener and the heaven more blue. Indeed, it is an irritating hyper-reality. Its purpose is not to establish something groovy and dandyish on its own but just to coil inside its deeper values.
