Alaska Wilson - Invisible Boy (Amity Recordings ARAP009)
Alaska Wilson is an artist based in Belize. Invisible Boy was initially released via Jumjum Records in 2015. Marking 10 years since its original release the song still holds tight an anthemic lo-slung reflective disco charisma. Energic overdrive guitars dub sweetly along and punch softly in the mix as Alaska calls to Just Slip Away. Wandering synths coupled with emotive strut draw influences to Primal Scream in step with Spiritualized. A retro cinematic- time resistant single.

Lobster Boy Remix
Hifi Sean gets to work on Lobster Boys to create a dubbed out mix of space-disco brilliance. Built around chords from the original, Davids vocal hook swirls alongside synths, arps and lots of psychedelic business. Elements of Baldelli are peppered throughout with Sean's signature sound.
Magic Eyes Remix
After wowing listeners with releases on Leng, Takovoi lends his talents to Magic Eyes and keeps things on the sunset vibe with a stunning rework. Early 90s Ibiza is sprinkled with shades of A Man Called Adam, and Weatheralls St. Etienne's legendary remix comes to mind as hazy broken beats sit atop a subtle 303 acid line, while the strings and pads do their things for the endorphins

“the divine languages of digitally dubbed autochthonal feathered inhabitants”
🐦
Returning to Galerie Met to enhance the exhibiting environment with a fresh Audiation Station, combining internet-streamed digital recordings of bird songs collaged to free-form synthesis, driven by soft moterik digital percussion.
🐦
It is an amalgamation of nature combined with melodic elevation and functional simplicity using analog tools, recordings, and bird voicings. Utilizing the currently exhibiting architectural artists' references, this performance will drift sweetly into the divine languages of digitally dubbed autochthonous feathered inhabitants from China and Great Britain. Secretive, poetic, occult, spiritual, earthly, or heavenly? Bird song has long been the basis of constructed languages created by humans..long may that continue.

'It's a Beautiful, Night to Be Alive'...Setting the mood a curious, lyrical slow groovin' modal desert stomp. Lobster Boys leans on a call to all the curious minds wandering the alternative attending. Thieves, playboys dressed as painters and hydro cowboys dance in cellophane wardrobes slurping milkshakes, dining out on each other's desires, in a heavily soaked mood, inspired by our alternative characters.
Max - When David sent me the first couple of songs he wanted to work on I was immediately struck by the wonderful combination of his pure, but soulful timbre and the cinematic, contemporary 'psychedelia' of the lyrics. It seemed the perfect starting point from which to explore a variety of low-slung, dubby, leftfield 'pop' fantasies. Utilizing an array of both electronic and organic instrumentation and rhythms, and not shying away from the glorious melodic nature of these songs, has taken us on a deeply satisfying (clean) trip.
'This particular release comes from the July 10th EP ‘The Clean Trip’. ‘Lobster Boys’ is a slow-burning Balearic nod"
Listen & Stream
David Harks and Max Essa return for 4 tracks of impeccably produced dreamy pop, Balearic wanderings, and hypnotic chug.
Magic Eyes kicks things off with a track that hints at the sunset of acid house with chugging rave keys, back-in-the-day bass synth, and a whole heap of soulful melancholia. It's a deep, slow groover with strangely hypnotic, repetitive vocal murmurings that soar.
Plastic Bones has baggy poetry that flows along with a bright positive mantra
Come! Let it go, take the first step to lighten the load, you're one of a kind.
Joyfully strange and lovely, there's a Beta Band mood to go with dreams of the Mediterranean.
Finally, Blind Horizons is a pure extended odyssey of lilting polished pop. David wrote the song to take a listener through a journey aboard a Cosmic Starlight Cutter. An epic and vast voyage, the sentiment is a reminder to keep searching.
Max Essa, David Harks Present - The Clean Trip - Magic Eyes
Shapes up most welcomely for David and Max’s EP ‘The Clean Trip’ which just dropped. Early single ‘Lobster Boys’ piqued our interest good and proper but we’re super swooning over ‘Magic Eyes’ and indeed the four tracks are all beauts. This is poolside psych disco with Balearic waves washing over us too – get a mocktail in our hand and let us lay back on that daybed because ‘Magic Eyes’ has zoomed onto our Summer Vacation Poolside Luxury Decadence 2024 (check it out – it’s so fine!) playlist and won’t be budging. We have to say that listening to David feels like free therapy – he’s just the smoothest.

The Mega City Disco Cowboy brings a supercharged proto-funk cocktail disco set to splurge up the senses. Astro-cosmic country Sunshine Cowboy can be heard populating the satellite cocktail lounge jukeboxes of internal hopper flights, as they follow the ooze of fluro trails at night. The Aggregator defines the sound of screen-lit sub ‘o’ tonic alien love suites across the eastern sub-sector, providing energy to light the public engagement authority churches. Rainbow sub-pop island within the city, ‘State of the Art’ provides a calm sense of androgynous universalism for the populous, delivered smoothly by the Mega City Disco Cowboy. As we ride through the night we are met with ‘The Dawn’ a progressive rock-inspired disco expression, charged with humanism, gospel bass lines, mutant expression, and joy.

Space Whisper - Bocca Featuring Margo Sanda
One year ago, when I was at the very beginning of the relationship with my partner, I wrote a short note on a very tiny notebook saying in Italian: I could also fall asleep in your mouth.I think it was one of the first very rare occasions where I managed to have a full night of sleep while sharing bed with them. This problem was very bad, it was causing me frustration, confusion and of course exhaustion. I couldn't figure out why the beauty of the moments I was spending with a person that I love couldn't go together with the relaxing status of falling asleep.The lyrics of the song "Bocca" are born from this contrasting feeling. The love for a person and the pain from not being able to fall asleep next to them - Margo Sanda

Space Whisper Safer Moves Album Feat. Margo Sanda Out 04/29/2022
Recorded in one singular day the basis of the elements of the album are further explored and extended into a full-length journey using early precious recordings. Each journey unlocks a memory box of melodic emotion. For the first time introducing a vocal pallet to the magical world of Space Whisper, Margo Sanda heralds pure beauty across Bocca, revealing audio silences that summon the listener to follow Space Whisper out into the swamp. Laid across emotive sound pallets of synthesis the album follows footings to unchartered ancient lands. Melodic ambient and at points classical in its approach, like its predecessor's utilities cycles of surreal repetition, calming waves of discordance that heighten the senses. Layers of harmony are often shunned by sharp textures glistening in the lake. A beautiful third album that captures free-falling performances coupled with intentional sound design taking us further into the Space Whisper underworld.

Produced by Rob Flynn, Mists lays out calmic indie pop energy that chugs smoothly across Rob’s detailed colourful sonic textures, crunching guitar riffs and computer game tones. A touch of glistening divinity as the lyrics preach to ‘leave it all behind’, lets hit the road and let the mysticism of life's magic lead us all astray. Layered harmonies cosmically cruise the astral highway as Harks and Flynn evoke the sound of ‘TV On The Radio.’ Slowly but surely drippin us through the track onto a metaphysical canvas, calling out to us one again to take a trip with David Harks.
