After 2 successful, reputation forming EP’s (The Descent Chapter I & II), enigmatic musical entity Pact Infernal re emerge with their debut LP Infernality for Horo. Equal parts horror and simmering mysticism, the Pact Infernal sound has collected a base of devoted listeners including musical contemporaries like Lucy, Samuel Kerridge, Trepaneringsritualen, & Oake.
Infernality is an accomplished coming of age for Pact Infernal, a conceptual LP that brings together the elements that worked so well on both their EP’s into a robust, coherent statement. Beckoning, sinuous rhythms combine with smoky ambience and subtly anthemic riffs. The haunting percussion that has been a highlight of their past work often takes the lead, and in ‘Death & Rebirth‘, Pact Infernal have come up with their most infectious music so far. Album closer ‘Rites Of Passage‘ is a time capsule Pact Infernal track, perfectly combining their stylistic signatures into an essential bookend.

FOCAL will be performing a DJ Set at CHÂTEAU PERCHE FESTIVAL. The event based in Ainay-le-Vieil, a medieval fortress with high walls, moats and classical gardens, is undeniably French Touch. But Château Perché keeps its line-up open with a selection of the best of European techno and deephouse. In this castle where Colbert’s family used to live, now Perchépolis will be rubbing shoulders. In a Kitsch universe of red velvet and golden Rococo, it is easy to lose one’s mind, forgetting not only what time it is but what year it is. With exhibits, shows, food and friends, Château Perché will once again delight the techno-lovers, summer dreamers and counter-culture creatives who join the yearly adventure in August.

Performing as The Greatest Hoax, Washington, D.C.-based composer Taylor Jordan debuts a new conceptual album of contemporary classical music. Produced by Rafael Anton Irisarri, Expiration Compositions, his sophomore album presents a brooding yet hopeful take on a soundtrack to a peaceful death.
Jordan displays an innately human fear of death through nine sequential tracks grounded in somber piano and ambient textures. Each composition adds nuanced layers of emotional complexity with the addition of a string quartet led by cellist Mark Bridges of Kranky Records. Expiration Compositions melds a fascination with how life ends with brave imaginations of that very process. The result is an album that disconnects the listener from daily life while guiding them gently through that which most frightens them.

For anyone with their pulse on cutting edge music, Neel is synonymous with quality. He’s one half of the critically acclaimed duo, Voices From The Lake (with Donato Dozzy), and here he teams up with his studio partner, Filippo Scorcucchi.
The pair present a project called LF58 (named after Neel‘s mastering/recording studio in Rome) for our latest installment in the Late Night Innominate series. Three untitled ambient tracks all created with modular synthesizers, full of emotion and technical brilliance.

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.
