Matière presents Sonic Search, an ambitious four-volume project conceived as an exploration of sound, granting each track the space to assert its own logic while contributing to a broader vision. The compilation brings together artists whose practices may appear distant, placing distinct sonic universes into dialogue until they converge within a shared wave—fragile yet furious, luminous yet abyssal.

Moving across ambient, trance, jungle, and techno, the project reveals subtle correspondences between light and shadow, organic and mineral, science and mysticism. Each voice finds its place within this shifting terrain, driven by a common impulse: to push the act of listening to its limits and explore the depth and multiplicity of contemporary sonic language.

Following the release of "La route des Alpes - 1921," Nouveau Monica presents a reinterpretation of "Ascension," one of the standout tracks from the DNGLS album. This album was produced following a commission from the Scène Nationale de Lux in Valence to create a live cinema-concert for André Bayard’s silent film, La route des Alpes. It is an exploration of a world and a mountain landscape that no longer exist, traveling through Évian, the Galibier Pass, and Mont Blanc. The album is steeped in this black-and-white atmosphere, giving it a new dimension, an emotion-filled journey shifting between ambient, electronica, breakbeat, and IDM.

With a cinematic signature shared with DNGLS, Nouveau Monica reveals a new narrative to the track.. This version is extended and more dynamic, featuring more sustained drum breaks and a brighter tone, while still preserving a deep sense of melancholy. With this remix Nouveau Monica continues the "Ascension" far beyond the Alps.

In this new instalment of the Rhythmic Culture mix series, we turn our focus to Bangkok with a mix from Takky — a DJ and resident at Bangkok Community Radio and Bar Temp. This release is part of a two-part series curated by Sarayu, highlighting Thai artists and the local scenes shaping them.

Sarayu: “I’ve known Takky for a really long time — the first time we properly met, I was really impressed by her music selection. Ever since then we’ve become super close friends, and I’m always impressed by her selections.”

Amity presents Chrome Abyss, the much-anticipated debut solo EP from sought-after producer and DJ Beaabea. Her tracks have caught the attention of key tastemakers like Jaguar and Martha on BBC Radio 1, with releases including her debut single 'Pixelate' on EMA’s label Woozy imprint, and her latest cut 'Constants' on Amity. After making her mark with these standout early releases, Chrome Abyss arrives as a distilled and deliberate statement, channeling a sound palette that is shiny, metallic, and fluid yet grounded in rhythmic force.

Across four tightly constructed tracks, Beaabea unveils a world of glistening surfaces and low-end pressure - bass-heavy, refined, and built for maximum club potency. KNOCK OUT! hits with a sharp, clean impact; I Like Your Mind coils around processed vocal phrases and slick sub textures; MISFIRE rattles with mechanical tension. At the core, onandonandon loops and unravels hypnotic vocals into an endless feedback cycle, refracting around chrome-plated percussion. The entire EP carries a cool, reflective sheen with productions that shimmer like sculpted metal under strobe light.

Known for her genre-fluid sets and productions that fuse bass with high-energy percussion, Beaabea has become a distinctive presence, affiliated with collectives like Steel City Dance Discs and Club Glow. Through her event series and Voices Radio show How Did It Get So Late?, she has built space for FLINTA* DJ's, all while refining her own sonic identity. Chrome Abyss now solidifies that identity - precise, polished, and built to resonate.

Parule taps in with a five-track EP that explores different tempos and ventures into new sonic territories while maintaining some of his signature elements.

Stoned Squirrel opens the EP with a slow, head-nodding groove driven by a filtered acid hook and rattling percussions.

Off Shore follows as a stripped-back roller, evoking a hypnotic, submerged atmosphere.

Chants nods to Parule’s earlier work—fast-paced electro that dances between breakbeats and squelching acid lines.

Laufbahn is stripped down, raw and agonizing. Like running in circles with a broken foot.

Fujiyama pushes into the 160 BPM realm, weaving in lyrics and vocal textures from ŽEN's "Lov na crne tipke", a track Parule obsessed over throughout the past year.

pi pi pi curator deep creep steps up for a guest curation on the Rhythmic Culture mix series, shining a light on two standout artists from New York City and offering a glimpse into the sounds shaping the city’s forward-thinking musical landscape. First up is Connor Wrong.

deep creep: "Sometimes it feels like I’m swimming in a sea of new releases coming from every direction—but Connor Wright’s latest EP, Chlorine, is a refreshing plunge into the world of focused, modern euphoric breaks.

I first heard it during a b2b with adobeprincess at Public Records and have been obsessed ever since. As someone who loves letting a long track ride out, “Post Namen” still leaves you wanting more. I’m genuinely excited to see what’s ahead for them this year."
