Abdulla Rashim and Varg Team Up for New Ulwhednar Album

A new Ulwhednar album is on the way.

Modern Silver will be Jonas Rönnberg (a.k.a. Varg) and Abdulla Rashim‘s fifth album together as Ulwhednar. The Swedish duo first collaborated under the alias back in 2013, with one of the earliest releases on Rashim’s Northern Electronics imprint. Modern Silver looks set to continue pushing the sound of those previous releases (two of which dropped on cassette), featuring elements of techno, ambient and drone.

The announcement arrives not long after news of Varg’s next solo album, Nordic Flora Series Pt. 3: Gore-Tex City, which is set to arrive in March.

Modern Silver will be released February 14. Pre-order it at Bandcamp.

Mayak Preps Christopher Ledger EP; Shares Track

Following three standout releases in 2016—from Anton Kubikov, Dilated Pupils, and Afriqua—MAYAK kicks off 2017 with an EP from another bright newcomer in Christopher Ledger.

Metonimia features two original cuts, an original mix and an ambient, beatless version of “Metonimia,” as well as a peaktime remix from Romanian producer Teluric.

Ahead of the March 3 release, you can stream Ledger’s ambient version of “Metonimia” in full via the player below, along with previews of all three tracks.

Erased Tapes Celebrates 10 Years with New Free Compilation

On February 5, the Erased Tapes label reopened the doors to a new East London home to mark its 10th anniversary. In addition to this is the launch of a new website and a number of new festival showcases and other events to be revealed throughout the year.

Coinciding with these celebrations is a new free compilation entitled Erased Tapes Collection VIII, which features exclusive tracks from Rival Consoles, Ben Lukas Boysen, Douglas Dare, and more. The compilation is streamable in full below and downloadable here.

“I simply want to tell a story, whether that’s by compiling this annual collection of songs that connects the dots between all these works of music we had the honor of releasing over the years or curating a label in general. It helps me reminisce and revisit the moments that brought us all closer together, that make us human. With each year the picture becomes clearer and the message less reliant on words. I hope that this music helps the listener as much as it helps me to keep imagining, keep focusing, keep awake in a time when silence and peace are so hard to come by. May our new space provide a haven, reflecting these values we share and allowing people to find a moment to slow down in this fast-paced world we live in.” – Robert Raths, label founder.

The new website officially launches on Saturday, February 11, when the label also opens the doors of the Erased Tapes Sound Gallery to the public at 12 noon GMT at 174 Victoria Park Road, E9.

Klasse Wrecks Launches New Label, Moran Music Group

Klasse Wrecks has launched a new label.

Berlin-based Klasse Wrecks, the imprint run by Luca Lozano and Mr. Ho, has launched a sub-division, Moran Music Group. The new venture was undertaken with one purpose in mind—to share the music of currently unknown Kansas native Karlos Moran.

The producer was “stumbled upon” by Lozano, who was so taken by his music, he decided to create a new label dedicated to the Moran sound. Debut five-tracker MMG001 is described as being “somewhere in-between US House, Deep-Acid and proto-mutant-house Paradise Garage anthems.”

MMG001 is out now. Stream snippets below and buy it at Bandcamp.

Tracklisting:

A1. You Are My Life
A2. JMC Groove
B1. Just One Of Those Things
B2. The Spies Around Us
