MO-DU is Jan Jiskra.

“With any type of creation you create what’s inside of you, subconsciously that influences you.

Anything that take you off into another world, escapism, thats what I like. I’m not so crazy about the reality of everything. I like a lot of fantasy, and that’s what I try to create, to get away, to become moved”

Krystian Shek’s work is nothing if not eclectic. He’s worked out his own mode of Namlookian ‘environmental music’ across previous Carpe Sonum discs (and, prior to that, over numerous FAX editions), whether building towering edifices of stratospheric ambient or subtly shaking the foundations through an array of well-coifed beatstuffs. Navigating its way through a sensuous variety of moods, his new one prides itself on establishing a beachhead of shimmering synthetic calm amidst a clutch of frothy, downtempo sequences. Shek’s modus operandi here is restrained, tentative, almost dub-like, most pronounced in the delay-shimmer of the near four-minute “Thumbnails”, which, truth be told, could go on for another fourteen and never lose its poised, artfully crafted power. Later on, the delightful, sweet bromides laced within “Cinnamon Rolls” does much of the same thing, walking a gauzy, late-winter reverb-sheen with all the elegance Mssrs. Yayga, Grad_U, and others of similar persuasion execute. In other words, another marvelously wrought Shek-attack of pearlescent electronica, buffed with a fine shammy and shining on like crazy diamonds.

Gabriel Le Mar’s music seems to have no limits in the breadth and scope of its magisterial remit. Equally savvy in exposing both the tyranny of the beat and the elegaic vastness of skyrushing ambience, his abilities are notable for their exquisite sense of sonic dynamics, atmospheres comprised of a veritable melting canvas of colorful brushstrokes and beautifully tinted auras. On what is called their open source project RCO—meaning Radical Chill Out—Le Mar and regular cohort Dr. Motte energize the psychedelic personal spaces first eked out by Terence McKenna’s philosophical headstates (and whose think tank motifs spice up the beat-burnished rhythmic vortices of “Cutnotree”), gene-spliced with mid 90s’ IDioMatics, and the gentle, machine-code blurp so beloved of others of similar stripe, era, and ilk (re: the Black Dog, Atom Heart, etc.). There is something warmly nostalgic and welcoming in the duo’s softly shifting, slo-mo techno throb, a sense of the ‘new’ if you will, albeit one that embraces the reverberant, tactile maxims from those many decades ago. Brought to bear on new ears and realized with contemporary equipment to match, RCO chrome-stamp a gripping slab of new cold fusion.

If you’ve been hungering for a return to the great and legendary synthi environs of krautrock’s hoary yesteryears, look no further than the work of the appropriately nicked duo of Dividenthal & Aumgn. Upon experiencing the sweeping analog vistas of their debut for Carpe Sonum, one might imagine a couple of hirsute, cloaked avatars hunching over banks of keyboards and vintage ‘tronix, swaying in penitent hypnosis. Actually, the two gents behind the enigmatic moniker are none other than longtime electronic mavens Lee Anthony Norris (aka Norken, Metamatics, Nacht Plank, et al) and Matt Hillier (aka Ishq, Indigo Egg, and dozens of others), who’ve decided to set their controls for the heart of the galaxy on this enthralling slice of primo post-Teutonic space juice. And lest you think they’ve gone the way of endless Tangerine Dream/Klaus Schulze clones past and present, disavow yourself of that notion immediately—the two have a long history of generating wonderfully awry sonic textures that are at once peculiar, perplexing, and profound. If anything, the closest antecedent for these six tracks of fetching interstellar blip ’n’ tickle are Julian Cope’s Queen Elizabeth project, as well as the pioneering studies found throughout the catalogs of Oskar Sala, Charles Cohen, and plenty of other hip critters tickling the fancies of their beloved Buchlas, Moogs, ARPs, and suchlike. What it all boils down to is that this is utterly spellbinding stuff, fleet of touch, percolating to the muse of the two lads’ own analogics, and with sci-fi imagination to burn.

After the highly acclaimed 2018 debut album “20 Years in Space”, mysterious music maker Urban Meditation joins Fantasy Enhancing with a full load of new chants to guide your savasana. “Currents of Space” picks up where the debut album left you and provides two full CDs of beat-infected electronica, side-by-side with almost infinite soundscapes that carry you on a mental journey through time and space.

Hitch a ride on Juno, take a tour of Jupiter and witness what no human has ever experienced – surf on waves of clouds, glide on a jet stream, and touch the diamond heart of this majestic gas giant. Unfurl a sail, catch the solar wind, journey into the deep unknown. Whilst drifting on the currents of space, look back at our pale blue dot, lapping at the shores of the cosmos, and know – if we so choose, this is a slice of paradise.

Urban Meditation has used the time wisely to refine their skills and yet push their boundaries even further in endless space.

All aboard!
 In their debut collaboration, up and coming German musician Sven Kössler and highly acclaimed UK artist Si Matthews join forces to set you on a futuristic audio cruise. Melodies and counter melodies are the order of the day whilst you visit various ports of call throughout your journey.
Setting sail with euphoric, beat driven pieces of electronic music that will stick in your memory long after they’ve finished, playing with the sounds of the changing tides before setting the acoustical ambience for discovering long lost places like the floating hills of Atlantis. As with all good voyages, the final sunset leaves you with a comfortable feeling of nostalgia, longing for the next trip with these two captains at the helm.
A virtual cruise that is about to put you in “A Constant State Of Flow” – as it did with the two musicians while putting this timeless piece of music together

With their debut album the duo explores the many facets of ambient music with a meticulous attention to sound design and smooth melodic arrangements. All the tracks have been conceived with a unique palette of sound timbres, making use of a wide range of sampling and synthesis techniques (granular, wavetable, FM, additive).
The sound is further enhanced by parts of electric guitar, acoustic piano and field recordings.

Instilled by the colours of winter, the music evokes the act of
leaving for uncertain destinations…
A collection of soundtracks for winter departures.
