DJ $TOCKER / PLIUS 7 EP / OUT SOON | . |
|
DJ $TOCKER is awkward-winning international Internet figure, a blurry celluloid who fights demons like mom. One of the biggest influences for Mr. DJ $TOCKER are money, avant-garde music and cinema like short movie “Outer Space”. His sounds lead to some kind of paranoia of unpretentious eyeless angel. Some say he is just a meditational cocktail of runny nose in this chaotic modern shopping culture. DJ $TOCKER – in terms of music – is not about something to get scared of. It is more about getting confused and wondering what those uncomfortable compositions are trying to say. But maybe they do not mean anything at all. It is more about the exploration of the “sense and nonsense”, where the significant dissonance between the spectator and events creates a huge disruption of the ability to be sucked in. The dark side of the stock is used as a resistance to the normal music rules, conception of this medium and more importantly – comprehension of human factor as “non-creative”. DJ $TOCKER’s latest EP is dedicated for the political madness partly created over social media. This confusion is reflected in his creative process, which reminds a situation where dozen opened tabs with looped audio sounds have no ability to be closed. You are trapped and you are already dead.The EP appears on minimal.lt and Partyzanai joint label Plius Plius Plius Records and will be presented on the 10th of March at event +++ w/ Eduardo De La Calle. Big thanks to Romanas Orlovas for the graphic design and Pranza (audomastering.lt) – for making it sound good.

BLACK WATER / NIGHT SHIFT / JUN 17 | ||
At the times of extreme electronic music diversification and intend to be modern, we value the artists, who stay conistent and follow their vision. Black Water are the rare ones, who follow their inspiration and vision since we know them. The result is an album, which is strongly influenced by Cologne sound. At the time you can classify it as “Retro Kompakt Sound”, but it’s all about universal language. And it convinced us no doubt. Black Water debut album “Night Shift“ is the result of a long-term creative process, which was finally compiled into one story-concept, where all tracks deliver random but significant message. We hope, that this message will be received. Special thanks to Martynas Pavilonis for graphic design and Pranza (audomastering.lt) – for making it sound good. Here are the references:
