AKLI / REMIXES EP / OUT ON PZ POP

.

Akli is a Lithuanian post-punk/industrial music project that was created while the world was locked down by the pandemic. Isolation and solitude shaped the themes of musical ideas that were composed and recorded by the artist Kristijonas Valančius. The band’s music is aggressive and brimming with philosophic contemplations of self-worth, lust and disorder. Sonic collages of screaming guitar leads, aggressive vocals, driving bass, distorted drums and dark synthesizer passages create a unique immersive experience. The music strays from blatant cynicism and anger to illuminating moments of honesty. Akli released two critically acclaimed albums – „Taika” (peace) and “Refleksija” (reflection). With the purpose to build a bridge between stage and club scenes, the selected tracks from the album “Taika” got a bunch of versatile remixes made by the artists from various Partyzanai sub-labels: Teatre, 5ZYL, Auren, Shaknis, Kolegos, Shkema and Palmes Ziedas. The remixes EP appears on digital on Partyzanai Pop Records and launches on the 23rd of December, 2021 at Radio Vilnius. Big thanks to Mantas Lukosevicius for the cover design and Pranza (audiomastering.lt) for making it sound good. You can preview the EP on Soundcloud and purchase it over Partyzanai Pop Records Bandcamp. From the 4th of February 2022 the EP will be available on all other digital platforms.

KLASTOTE / COBALT EP / OUT ON GARS RECORDS

.

Klastote got into music production at his early teens. Music was a whole new perspective towards artistic expression, the synthesis between solitude and interactivity of the production process was something new to the author, who primarily concentrated on writing, dancing and acting. In his debut EP the author attempts to express the energy collected within the socialist-modernist apartment block buildings in his childhood neighbourhood. Along with the functional buildings, other mechanical, industrial constructions are turned into a sonar experience of chaotic order.

Rather than maintaining a constant flow of human emotions, Cobalt EP is constructed with the goal to exhibit the subhuman spirit of man-made structures. The author chose to name all four of the tracks by metals, due to his interest in this medium. Instead of creating a metal-like sound, Cobalt EP is concentrating on the functional qualities of this material as well as its place in our society. Radium was inspired by train-tracks, a path made for the seemingly unstoppable force of the train riding on them, something stable and peaceful for most of the time, yet capable of withstanding incredible amounts of power that it channels through. In contrast to three other tracks in the EP, Neptunium is inspired by the natural scenery of the seashore, however, the track found its place in the EP due to the observation of the similarity between man-made constructions and the sea. Similarity that is, again, not based on the primal qualities of the sea, or water, but rather on the magnitude and energy that it takes and radiates with each wave. With the use of Pink noise, the author attempted to resemble the ambience of the seashore, other elements of the track serve to express the interaction between one’s thoughts and an inanimate object. Klastote speaks with the sea the same way he can do it with an old bucket or a warehouse, receiving answers by imagining the sonar potential of each object or space along with its place in the entirety of the human experience.

The EP is released on the brand new co-curated label Gars Records. Big thanks to Pranza (audiomastering.lt) to make it sound good, and Babauzhiu to make it look good.

VEIVERIS / DRUMSTIS EP / OUT SOON

.

Veiveris, musically being an odd one out, is an embodiment for outlandish sounds and textures. Ever-searching for peculiarities in club context has accumulated into the status quo of his creative journey which is the debut “Drumstis” EP. With its quite contemporary attitude towards sound it makes a perfect fit for the Partyzanai Plius assortment appending with distinctive rhythms and atypical sounds. Based in Vilnius, Veiveris has built up a grasp of Lithuania’s club scene outskirts and particularities and paves the way for himself by contributing music for the outsiders in Lithuania and around the globe.

“Drumstis” EP is a set of inner emotions expressed through human-like timbre synth sounds. As if the sounds would be direct expressions of human emotion, Veivers uses them to confront his subconscious and rally against the outside world, spreading unease and wit. Throughout the EP’s gloomy atmosphere, a sense of unusualness and discomfort accompanied with thunderous ambiences makes unfamiliarity a usual standard. By design broken kick drums integrate the perfect amount of chaos with wrecked order. Rationalities wither, uncertainty persists.

Big thanks to Pranza (audiomastering.lt) to make it sound good, and Tadas Karpavicius to make it look good.

EMENT/ METATONE LP / OUT NOW

.

Metatone is a tonic-containing substance used to help restore health and vitality after illnesses or when you are feeling tired. A metaphor, which perfectly describes Ement’s debut album – a mixture of peak-time electro/techno tunes spiced up with the modern traces of EBM, which perfectly fits clubs and festivals. It is a personal dancefloor experience materialization of a non-stop party rebel, who started his music production journey in the periphery and got inspired by his brother’s hard dance production experiments. After an intensive exploration of the local and foreign club scene through years of intensive djing, remixing and never-ending afterhours, Ement finalized his recent definition of dance, which launches on the new co-curated PZ Records label.

An unexpected break and a long-lasting limbus of the dancefloor consumption turned out as a perfect slot to reveal one of many underestimated Lithuanian producers, who are too shy and too critical to themselves. It’s no fiction, as “How Much Is Too Much” was already noticed and compiled by Dave Clark in his “Whitenoise” radio show.

Big thanks to Tadas Karpavicius for for the graphic design and Pranza (audiomastering.lt) for making it sound good.

PPP015 / JAROSKA / UT REMIXES

A sound clash of genre-agnostic colourful “Uncharted Territories” EP finally follows-up with additional remixes. Jacques Satre from Worst Records brings his signature sound flip that makes “How Do You Called It” into Saint-Etienne’s chillout scene anthem. Five Rituals modifies “Eating Knives” into an experimental bass sound with half-time beat clocking into chugging tempo and weird Lithuanian pop figure appearing between powerful room shaking basslines. Shkema makes the most psychedelic version of “Eating Knives” so far. Phun Thomas revision got a fat acid facelift and “Thrillingly Twisted Uncharted Territories” by DJ JM is club-ready amen break dj tool revision to original. Finally, Jaroska revisits his own “Eating Knives” one more time to bring into the 80’s territory with fuzzed guitars and lyrics that tells the hard truth about most common lifestyle in our club culture.

PZPOP011 / PALMES ZIEDAS / FUTURA ALBUM

.

Briefly about the scene newcomer. Growing up in Kaunas and being strongly influenced by different cultures, Jonas started producing at his fifteenths, but his relationship with music was always on an abstract level, which made his personal work artistic, floating, with no clear purpose. The album „Futura“ was inspired by the Lithuanian electronic club music culture, particularly by strong sense of modern hedonistic life. Palmes Ziedas has always felt a weakness for mid/late twentieth-century recording style, so often his work may seem domestic, too human. But these features only emphasize the melancholy sense of nostalgia of the modernist age. The debut album “Futura” appears on digital and MC format on Partyzanai Pop Records and launches on the 18th of January at event Partyzanai Pop: Palmės Žiedas Futura Album Launch at Bar Amadeus in Vilnius. Big thanks to Pranza (audiomastering.lt) for making it sound good.
