Versalife – Night Time Activities Pt.2 [CWCS06.2]
Versalife’s Night Time Activities part 2 is taking us further down deep into the night. Versalife is creating a setting with sounds radiating the midnight atmosphere that reflects the twin peak-esque life on a almost deserted windy dutch coastal island where the clouds rush through the dark night time skies projecting all variations of grey and black on the mystifying dunes. Futuristic electro techno tracks with emotive synth work created with exploratory imagination.
Johannes Volk – Across the Emptiness [EXP002]
Johannes Volk’s second release on his own label Exploration. “Energy Field” is a powerful peak time bomb, growing with each passing second! The title track “Across the Emptiness” comes with a wall shaking sub-bass, stormy chords and a retro-futuristic sound design. On the b side we have “Isolation”, a dub infected piece of music with complex organic textures. And finally “Devoted to Microgravity” with it’s heavy drums, toms and cowbells.
