About this product

The first full-length from Rizzla, Adepta marks an adjustment to their position within and without the club, am overwhelming desire to share stories that cannot be politely articulated, the chronicle of a gradual process of personal apocalypse. Holding ones breath in a room full of toxic air. The exquisite loneliness of a rural sunset. Adepta explores rage, loss and reconciliation, made during a period of rewilding and recovery. Adeptas rhythmic execution and tempo fluctuates wildly, hysteric and rootless club tools alongside fractures of vocal dance music. Structurally, Adepta formalizes Rizzla's practice as a DJ and remixer, drawing on a collage of samples designed to simultaneously welcome and disorient the listener, geographically and temporally. Haunted by encounters with fundamentalism and a eroticized anarchy, the 11 track LP amplifies the personal anxiety of losing ones self and culture with the exhilaration of liberatory self-immolation. After a youth spent omnivorously consuming a wide variety of American club cultures, Rizzla studied music and history in Trinidad where they became obsessed with the sonics of counterculture and the musical language of resistance. Alongside longtime collaborator Dhana Perry, they founded the KUNQ collective, a growing alliance of queer artists working in music and visual media. They previously released Iron Cages on Fade to Mind, and has been affiliated with Kingdoms Fade to Mind tag since it's inception. After relocating to Brooklyn, Rizzla served some time in New Yorks alternative club scene. With a discography composed of both self and official releases, Rizzla continues to blend DIY aesthetics with pop-influenced productions, taking influence from both the transcendent and the horrific qualities of our times.A1.

Ekoplekz - Reflekzionz   - VINYL LP

Ekoplekz delivers his third long-player for Planet Mu, and whilst the murky four-track cassette sound and dirty analogue textures are still very much in place, keen ears might spot a subtle change in emphasis. There are less of the radiophonic sci-fi sounds, ancient drum machines and none of the post-punk bass or guitar. Instead, Nick Edwards mainly focuses on invoking a blurry, saturated false-memory of the leftfield electronica that was the soundtrack to his life in the early to mid-1990s. As the album title suggests, InchReflekzionzInch is a record that unapologetically dwells on past experiences, like flicking through an old album of bleached-out photos from days gone by, and on tracks like InchDowntoneInch, with it's extended, unchanging groove and wash of muted, untethered synth melody, the aim is to invite the listener to join in a state of reverie. InchMidnight CliffsInch and InchSaturation (Full Rinse)Inch are unabashed homages to the artists who inspired Edwards, but always with enough production twists and turns to ensure the results are never simply a facsimile of the originals. Opening track InchA Caustic RomanceInch could almost be a lost AFX beat but adds a touch of hand-played niave melody that brings to mind mid-seventies Cluster, blending different eras in a lo-fi melting pot. Elsewhere there are other influences on display. InchQuakers Road SkankInch sounds like Raymond Scott jamming with Lee Perry at the Black Ark InchRepeater (How Did It Feel?)Inch tips it's hat to the work of indie-psych gods Spacemen 3, whilst InchSeduktionInch adds a touch of Kraftwerk-like metallic sheen. But as with practically all Ekoplekz records, the unifying factor is the primitive dubwise production, heavy on the filtering, echo and equalisation, never more apparent than on InchDubnium 268Inch where heavy layers of drone and melody crash and burn along an unstable rhythm
