The Harmonic Festival team is delighted to invite you for its 3rd edition in Trigance (France).
Conferences, workshops for adults and children, yoga, meditation and healing, craft exhibitors, local and organic food and most of all music (ambient, dub, downtempo, world, ethnic). AES Dana & Opale will be performing alongside many artists, more infos below.
Ever since their initial singles were released in the mid-1990s and became international calling cards for the Chain Reaction label, the Porter Ricks duo of Thomas Köner and Andy Mellwig have represented that crucible point in which techno music leaked into new social environments and became the background music for cutting-edge cultural critique.
Their new LP on Tresor, Anguilla Electrica, may be their first full-length release in seventeen full years, but it radiates with confidence and with a clarity and intensity rarely seen in a world so over saturated with communications noise. It’s made clear at once that it’s a continuation of a sonic ideal rather than a tribute to what has already been achieved: the duo is not idly sitting back while their newer acolytes do their talking for them.
This new LP is well worth the wait and is a life-affirming one in an uncertain and perilous time, drowning out daily anxieties like a rush of incoming surf.

We’re delighted to release Focal’s first double compilation today.
From Ambient to Techno, through a game of modulation of pads, rhythms and frequencies, POLARITY offers a variety of musical spectra flowing into one another, a melodic exploration of the twists and turns which link both universes.
The Black Mask – SNTS debuts on Horo in the wake of his experimental leaning ‘Losing Sight‘ LP. EP opener ‘Origin Of Light‘ dazzles with it’s shimmering waves of corrosive ambience, while ‘Ancestral Reflection‘ and ‘Figures In The Mist‘ are more familiar, vital SNTS dance-floor rituals, built with the inherent SNTS intoxication. ‘Resurgence‘ notches up the intensity to close the EP with a grinding heave.
Nearly two decades after the last official GAS album release, Wolfgang Voigt returns to his iconic Ambient project with a brandnew full-length.
Even in the here and now, the unmistakable vibe of GAS immediately hits home, taking the listener on an otherworldly journey with the very first sounds, drawing him or her into an impervious sonic thicket, down to the depths of rapture and reverie.
From wafts of dense symphonic mist emerges a floating and whirling feeling of weightlessness, before the listener steps into an eerily beautiful forest of fantasy, pulled in by the allure of a narcotic bass drum.
While earlier GAS tracks were often based on the hypnotic effects of looping techniques, the 10 new pieces on NARKOPOP unfold their magic in a more entwined manner, sometimes with the sonic might of an entire philharmonic orchestra, sometimes as subtle and fragile as the most delicate branch of a tree with many.
A main characteristic of Voigt‘s oeuvre, the coalescence of seemingly contradictory stylistic aspects such as harmonious and atonal, concrete and abstract, light and heavy, near and far is also a decisive feature of NARKOPOP.
Double sided mixed compilation by Arnaud Galoppe aka Focal | Kinosura presenting ambient and techno works by artists such as Deadbeat, Claudio PRC, AES Dana, Zzzzra and original designs by French artists Suzy Lelièvre and Raphaël Kuntz.

bvdub is Brock Van Wey, a native of the San Francisco Bay Area. Devoting his life to the SF rave scene in the late 80’s, he began to DJ and promote his own deep house and ambient events in 1991, rising 10 years before a self-imposed exile to China in 2001 to escape the state of a scene he could no longer accept. He began to produce his own music in 2006. His overtly emotional sound spread to Styrax, Millions of Moments, Southern Outpost, and Meanwhile, before a natural and gradual shift to his trademark ambient onslaughts saw him call n5MD, Glacial Movements, AY, Darla, echospace (detroit), Kompakt, his own Quietus Recordings, and many more home.
Now returned to his hometown, he has continued his prolific output, with a string of self-released CD and digital-only releases, a monolithic rework of Vortexual (element seven) for echopace (detroit), and his newest, most wistful and hypnotic work yet – his return to Glacial Movements, with Epilogues for the End of the Sky.
