This is the remix edition of Dino Sabatini's recent second album "Omonimo" (April 2016, Outis Music).Like the recent album, this EP "Concentrica" features renowned Italian veteran pianist/accordionist Antonello Salis on the tracks "If" and "It All Ends Here", albeit here in different versions. Out of these two tracks the former is on "Concentrica" reworked by Dino Sabatini and the latter in a collaborative live variation between Salis and Dino Sabatini.
Simultaneously with the announcement of "Concentrica" was it announced that Dino and Antonello are launching their new live project: Dino Sabatini & Antonello Salis present 'Electronic Opera Concentrica'.
Howie B is veteran producer mainly known as a purveyor of early trip hop, having produced cuts from Tricky's debut album, Björk's "Post" and "Homogenic" as well as other major like U2.

Tracklist EP:
A1 - Sometimes Back (Touched by Howie B), A2 - If (feat. Antonello Salis)
B1 - The Unexpected (ASC's Grey Area Remix) , B2 - And it All Ends Here (Salis & Sabatini Variation)

After inaugurating the 'Opera' sub-series of his Outis Music label with the sublime 'Omonimo' double LP this April, Dino Sabatini has invited some choice allies to help define the vocabulary and expand the vision of the new imprint. The aforementioned album, which wove together Sabatini's atmospheric conjuring skill with the piano flourishes of Antonello Salis, already exhibits the label's commitment to dismantling the 'either-or' logic of contemporary genres by successfully merging a variety of supposedly irreconcilable styles, talents, and worldviews (e.g. both mythological and the technological perspectives). The follow-up EP, 'Concentrica', draws on the material from 'Omonimo' and delivers it into the hands of additional remixers in order to continue the Outis Opera voyage.

The leadoff contribution, a variation on 'Sometimes Back' from Howie B, unwinds slowly and undulates gracefully, luring the listener into a dense thicket of sound foliage before a surprise entrance from sonic beasts made of thick distortion and delay effects. The deceptively light percussion touches and keystrokes give this cyborg dub a deceptive tranquillity that contrasts delightfully with the growls and feverish swells of the 'lead' synths. This fades into a re-imagining of 'If' by Sabatini, augmenting the original's ambience with all kinds of new elements from rolling toms to translucent curtains of harmonic string-like sounds. More of a continuation of the original than a reprise, it strikes that perfect balance between passivity and activity - the listener can 'relax' but still have the freedom to actively, deeply explore inner space.
Next up is a focused mix of 'The Unexpected' from ASC, known for his many contributions to the Silent Season label and for a kinship with uncategorizable artists like Kangding Ray and L.B. Dub Corp. Though subtitled as his 'Grey Area' mix, this track is rich with tone colour and a feeling of curiosity that, thanks to the producer's flair for layering sound washes and filtering percussive elements, never elevates into full-on anxiety and leaves one wanting to know what lies behind the door from which these hazy sounds are escaping.

The final track, as it was on 'Omonimo', is once again 'And it All Ends Here', although this time Salis and Sabatini reach the ending in a drastically different way than before: a dramatic fade-in of music box and environmental ambience gives way to even more dramatic string arrangements, quick piano stabs and time-reversed ephemera. As such, the record ends in mystery, with a question mark or a 'to be continued...' rather than a resolute conclusion, but this is part of the record's appeal: imagining what lies beyond the grooves is just as rewarding as the listening experience.

C1 - Sometimes Back C2 - The Untold Story C3 - Homeward
D1 - If (feat. Antonello Salis) D2 - Summary D3 - And it All Ends Here (feat. Antonello Salis)

Short info:
As both a producer and the helmsman of the Outis Music label, Dino Sabatini has carved out a distinctive musical style that shows a great reverence for both ancient archetypes and future possibilities for change (see, for example, his "Mnemosyne" co-release with Edit Select, in which each track is dedicated to a separate Greek goddess). With one foot planted in a mysterious past and the other foot planted in a world yet to arrive, Sabatini's works are carefully realized emotional journeys that intertwine shimmers of optimism with undercurrents of poignancy or nostalgia. His latest full-length offering, "Omonimo" (that's "homonym" for non-speakers of Italian), brings all of this to fruition on a record that demands (and rewards) deep listening.

After a pulsating "Foreword" massages the mind and prepares it for the story that Sabatini is about to tell, "Choosing the Right Way" blankets the listener in a rainy day ambience punctuated with tantalizingly distant vocal refrains and nimble piano. At once solemn and erotic, it sets the pace perfectly for a set of tracks that have a cohesive feel, yet all use their own sonic vocabulary and color palette to tell unique variations on the story. "It's My Forest," for example, sticks to the reliable trip-hop / mid-tempo framework while introducing quick snatches of tabla and signaling, hovering synth arpeggios. "Follow Me" retains the lush synth pads and cycling percussive loops of that track, and then things take a turn for the slightly darker with "The Unexpected," a sudden uptick in percussive punch and apprehensive intensity. The album's main, recurring motif of cascading note patterns continues on "Just When I Think About You" and "Sometimes Back," with the former benefitting from a fat, insistent bass synth throb both of these pieces benefitting from the return of tastefully minimal piano accents.

And speaking of piano, the album's feeling of grandeur truly hits its stride with the assistance of jazz pianist Antonello Salis: on the tracks "If" and the swansong "And it All Ends Here", Salis' input allows Sabatini's blossoming arrangements to truly breathe while accommodating his partner's contemplative presence, culminating in free-floating, luminous wisps of romanticism. Nestling neatly between a number of contemporary genres, and wisely avoiding their fatal clichés, tracks like the Sabatini / Salis collaborations will point listeners forward to a new kind of compositional freedom, and a style that can melt away feelings of pervasive stress without ever silencing the mind's innate curiosity.

Genre: Techno


Italian duo Crossing Avenue debuts on Outis Music with Piromanzia, their fourth solo EP, presenting a fresh batch of their organic rhythm tools. It's the duo's first EP on Dino Sabatini's Outis Music where they released three EPs on Spazio Disponibile before. First track Piromante is a dark and spooky hypnotizer in optimal form. Sacrificio brings out the drums, the pulsating rhythm groove subtly transforms into a playful DJ weapon where the EP closer Fuoco Freddo dives into the deeper techno territories being a true heads down kick drum roller. It's an exciting selection of carefully crafted noodling jams that makes this an essential pack of Italian techno.

Tracklist
A-Ecate
B1-Leto
B2-Esperide

Shortinfo:
A year on from Luigi Tozzi and label head Dino Sabatini's collaborative Manticora EP, Outis return with a striking, singular solo work from Tozzi. Ecate EP sees the Roman producer bringing three distinct slices of techno, each with its own set of subtleties and the crystal, adept sound design that defines Tozzi's work.
Spanning the A-side is Ecate. This title track is rolling and hypnotic, with muscular, percussive bass. Throughout the track, angelic chords come and go, washing the listener in euphoria. Alongside, we hear a disorienting melody, grounded by the lightly swung four to the floor kick that gives this track an infectious groove.
The flip opens with Leto, which immediately defines itself as a club track with an unbroken but evolving set of percussion and a weighty kick. It's around this kick that other elements build. We hear long, ringing, resonant string sounds, and a bell like melody morph and unfold as other percussive components come and go. The track falls away into atmospheric eeriness, which perfectly sets the stage for the EP's finale.
Esperede's swung, panning drums give it a disorienting feeling of otherworldliness from the get go. This is before you're greeted by an alien, slightly dubbed out melody and a hanting backing drone that feels like a reference (perhaps in opposition) to the angelic chords of the EP's first track. It's on this closing track that Tozzi's delicate, expert sound design best shines through, and really has to be heard to be understood.

Tracklist
A1. Manticora - B1. Celeno - B2. Aello

Shortinfo:
It's a match made in heaven, techno veteran Dino Sabatini meets up and coming talent Luigi Tozzi, who over the last couple of years has delivered stellar EPs for the likes of Hypnus Records, Dynamic Reflection, Mental Modern, and Sabatini's own Outis Music. Anyone familiar with the two will know they share an aptitude for adventurous and evolving techno. This is crystallised in this collaboration, which doesn't take the easy path of creating straightforward club tracks. Instead, the three tracks on this release explore the subtler sides of the two producers. That's not to say this isn't club music - it
is - but they have a lot more to offer than pure functionality. The EP opens with Manticora. This eight-minute experience takes the listener through
winding claustrophobia as ringing feedback pulses across the stereo field and cavernous rhythms dance about, hard to quite grab. These rhythms build to a point to which they solidify and fall into place, a point at which the track gains a feeling of propulsion, alongside shifting and emotive reverberations and resonances. Next up is Celeno, a track that slowly unravels under a backing of shuffling hats and a rolling kick drum. Twinkling synths swirl around before giving way to a rhythmic and compelling melody. Celeno's musical themes continue into the third and final track, Aello, which eases you in with softer drums while a haunting drone builds up. Over this, ghostly arpeggios develop alongside weightier drums that carry the track through until the end, leaving just enough time for the drone to ring out and provide a fitting end to the EP.

Tracklist:
A1 Athena A2 Eumaeus B1 Eurycleia B2 Laertes Theme

Short info:
Picking up where they left off three years ago, Modern Heads, the much-respected collaboration between Gianluca Meloni and Dino Sabatini, are back with a dynamic and intriguing four track EP. The duo go straight in here with the club-ready Athena. Throughout this track, tight percussive elements wind in and around one another, creating an ever-changing rhythm that you can only just hold onto. Under this, tense synths pulse away, producing an opaque and insular atmosphere. Next up, Eumaeus lightens the mood somewhat, providing clarity with a distinct opening drum pattern. This mood doesn't last long though, as indiscernible, haunting vocals begin to echo in the distance, gradually moving closer and further in the mix as sharp pads swoosh either side. Side B of the record opens with the deepest and longest track of the EP, Eurycleia. Simple yet unrelenting drums frame this hypnotic sci-fi episode, through which otherworldly screeches and rumbles reverberate over the twinkling sounds of machines. Eurycleia's atmosphere continues straight into the final track, Laertes Theme. This beatless piece takes Eurycleia's exploratory mood and extrapolates it over five and a half minutes, resulting in what feels like the perfect soundtrack to a glacial expedition in alien territory. As an EP this is a complete and coherent package; a perfect extension to Modern Heads previous work. The sound palette is familiar, yet refined, developed upon and taken further. The Old Beggar is undeniably worth the wait for anyone with a taste for the extraterrestrial. More

It all began about ten years ago in a basement in the heart of Rome; the story of a crew of people who followed a musical ideal and created an original sound and an unmistakable style.
After the return of Modern Heads with Outis 006 "Chapter II", memories once again led me to friends I made during the period of the first productions on Elettronica Romana, and I asked them for personal interpretations of the track "Beginning". From the youngest Claudio PRC to the veterans Donato Dozzy and Giorgio Gigli, all together on an amazing release.

Tracklist:
A1 / 1 - Calipso A2 / 2 - Ambrosia B1 / 3 - Nostos B2 / 4 - Nostos (Dino Sabatini Version)
Short info:
Luigi Tozzi is a young Roman artist just twenty-three years old but with a profound musical knowledge. His productions reflect the distinct musical style coming from the Italian capital, a style purveyed by artists now considered icons within the international techno scene. It's the direct link to this sound that aligns Luigi's music perfectly with the musical realm of Outis Music. The EP's opening and title track "Calipso" is dedicated to the Goddess of the Sea "Calypso", elegantly adding subtly trance-like traits to a classic 4/4 beat. Next piece "Ambrosia" finishes the first side with a deep, sophisticated and refined device dedicated to the Ocean God. Devotion to the return to home is the theme of the following cut "Nostos", a substantial tool that's hypnotic and encapsulating. On the EP's final piece "Nostos (Dino Sabatini Version)", label founder Dino Sabatini provides a different point of view on Luigi's original in his own classic and unmistakable style.

Short info:
After the latest podcast of its series, for the next release Outis Music has chosen Sardinian artists Claudio PRC and Ness. Both known previously for their solo projects, their collaborations, and also together as "The Gods Planet" they journey deep into remote sides of techno music. The affinity between concepts of their TGP project and Dino Sabatini's philosophy leads them to make their contribution to the label. "Icore" is an obsessive and straight 4/4 track, where a hypnotic and synthetic arp floats into visceral and noisy atmospheres. Beside the original, Italian artist Nuel give his dry and wild version, as well label boss Dino Sabatini complete the EP with a very deep and transcendental remix.

Following a ten-part series of unannounced artist records and a spectacular high-concept album on Mask Records, label head ZentaSkai returns to the imprint for his next solo vinyl-only release, ‘Bob’.
The A1 sees the Berlin-based ZentaSkai combine a dusty, taped white noise feel with subtle, swirling dub chords as its high-end propels the track forward. It’s a stunning and evocative piece before the A2 continues with minimal drums and electric acid bleeps, a smooth organ lead completing its gorgeous soundscape.
On the B-side of the ‘Bob’ EP, ZentaSkai joins forces with long-time collaborator Sebastian Klenk. It follows their
‘Apeiron’ track on ZentaSkai’s 2023 ‘Architecture Of The Mind’ LP, among other joint work, and sees them deliver a near-twelve-minute track that is a true masterpiece. The track takes listeners through found-sound texture samples, intricate drum patterns, crunchy breakbeats, and more beautiful dub melodics.
‘Bob’ is another fantastic listening experience on Mask Records, already supported by Satoshi Tomiie, Raresh and Laurent Garnier.

Info:
DJ Koze exists both above and beyond club culture as we know it - his albums and remixes flying free from genre and trend - and symbiotically woven into its heart. Yes, he always abstracts and weirds out the principles of house, techno, hip hop, pop, psychedelia, exotica and so forth, but he does that because he understands them. And when it comes to club-demolishing tracks, he understands those principles as well as just about anybody on earth.
Thus he could create an enduring club tune like 2015's "XTC" that is strange, contemplative, even disturbing, bore little relation to anything around at the time, yet still got bodies moving and sweating better than way more obvious techno bangers. And thus the Knock Knock album, which melts a million genres and none into one another, can comfortably include "Seeing Aliens".
"Seeing Aliens" unquestionably is a banger, its bass riff snaking around your body like a python, its high-drama strings, pianos and outbursts of noise designed for maximum crowd pressure release. But, again, it sounds like nothing else, and its dynamics and twists unfold over eight and a half minutes in ways that will mess with your head every time no matter how many times you hear it.
The exclusive b-side track, "Nein König Nein" ("No King No"!), meanwhile, is slightly gentler on the face of it: it's less about sonic pressure, more about hip-shaking syncopation. But it too tells strange fairytales in its peculiar and brain-tweaking accumulation of detail, and though you'll hear archetypal sounds from the heart of house and disco in it, every last one of them becomes new and otherworldly.

WRWTFWW Records is wonderfully proud to announce the long anticipated official reissue of Chrysalide (1978), the sole album from French multi-instrumentalist and enigmatic genius Michel Moulinié. The krautrock/ambient/minimalism paragon is available as a limited edition LP with one never-heard bonus track. It is sourced from the original reels and housed in a heavy 350gsm sleeve.

Originally released in 1978 on Ange and Jean-Claude Pognant's mythical prog rock label Crypto,
Chrysalide is a fusion of minimalist meditations, cosmic soundscapes, and ambient with a human warmth, carried by a profoundly beautiful and unique use of twelve-string guitar, bass, and violin.

Ideal for an introspective listening experience, the hypnotic Kosmische Musik of Michel Moulinié belongs to the same psychedelic family as Manuel Göttsching’s Inventions For Electric Guitar, Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells, early Tangerine Dream, and Steve Hillage’s innovative guitar mastery. WRWTFWW listeners might also be reminded of the label’s seminal French release, Dominique Guiot's L'Univers de la Mer, which makes a great spiritual pairing with Chrysalide.

Escape into the vast universe inside yourself :

On entre à pas feutrés
Dans une musique rayonnante
Aux variétés chatoyantes
Embrasement consécutif
D'un univers cristallin
Perlé de notes transparentes

Un écho céleste emplit la vastitude
De fines gouttelettes de sons fluides
Se transforment en cascades multiples
Baignant le microcosme
Révélant la grande paix divine

For fans of prog rock, krautrock, ambient, minimalism, experimental, introspective hypno-acoustic mystical meditative music, L’Universe de la Mer by Dominique Guiot, Steve Hillage, Manuel Göttsching, Terry Riley, the cosmos and its soundtrack, the cosmos that exists in one’s self.

Short info:

Simple Reality cements the short lived legacy of Coventry DIY group Skeet.

Emerging from a scene of first-generation punks and 2 Tone kids, Skeet was instigated by Gary and Nigel Meffen in 1981, fusing tightrope instrumentals with a Roland CR-8000 under the glow of projected visuals. After a cassette of their debut performance found its way to Kay Booth who worked at Inferno Records, the unsuspecting frontwoman took the liberty of adding her own vocals. Instantly embraced as a permanent member, Booth’s shy delivery and open-diary expressions of social alienation and romantic rejection hovered over the brothers’ scratchy guitar and agitated bass.

Playing as few as 10 shows, their unnerving minimalism was recorded in a suburban home studio, borrowing a reel-to-reel from Toby Lyons (The Colourfield) and a mixer from Jerry Dammers (The Specials). Record labels gestured interest until one day they were no more - no arguments, no official split, just a silent parting of the ways and three people taking journeys in different directions. Unheard and unloved in the vaults for nearly four decades, 'Brief Call' finally resurfaced via the Coventry Music Museum compendium Alternative Sounds Volume 1, followed by a micro pressing of the full suite on Chris Long’s Almost Unknown imprint in 2023.

Simple Reality now offers a definitive snapshot of these must-hear neurotic post-punks. Mastered by Skeet fanatic Mikey Young, newly discovered instrumental multitracks are restored alongside a live recording of their final stand. Performed atop of a trailer in a pub beer garden, the release-worthy desk tape adds three new tracks and a more energised swing at ‘Left On the Shelf’s apathetic techno-pop.

Release Info:
MASK unveil the final entry in its untitled release series.
Berlin-based label MASK records has become known for releasing a string of vinyl-only EP’s by unnamed
producers which have seen the support of respected artists such as Jimpster, DJ Bone, Ben Sims,
Santiago Salazar, Laurent Garnier, Ryan Elliot, Marcel Dettmann, and the Blessed Madonna amongst
others. Now, the tenth and final instalment of the series consists of an eclectic collection of techno and house
cuts, all recorded on tape during an analog live session in the artist’s studio.
The A1 eases you into the record through glitchy textures, swelling synths and broken beats before the A2
gets you into a rapturous tracky groove offset by lo-fi vocals and dreamy pads. The A3 takes a darker turn
through hypnotic drums and a droning bass, readying the listener for the B-Side which continues this raw
energy.
The B1 picks up the pace with energetic drums and clean ride cymbals while the B2 incorporates floaty arps
and a tantalising repeating vocal. ‘B3’ closes out the release with a retro 80s synth feel, putting a wrap on yet
another incredible vinyl EP by this exciting underground label.
Unknown Artist’s ‘SENNIN’ vinyl-only release drops via MASK Records mid-september.

WRWTFWW Records is honored to announce the first ever vinyl release for esteemed Japanese producer, composer, and environmental music luminary Yoshio Ojima’s rare forgotten album Club, previously only released as a limited edition of 50 cassettes back in 1983. The electronica/proto-techno/experimental gem is available as an LP reissue supervised by the artist, sourced from the original masters and housed in a heavy 350gsm sleeve. Only 500 copies were made.

A precious and sought-after item among collectors and enthusiasts of early Japanese electronic music, Club is a stunning and timeless collection of avant-garde electronica, proto-techno, mecha-ambient, and ear-pleasing experimentations from Yoshio Ojima, the ambient/environmental master behind the pivotal Music for Spiral albums released in 1988 (aka Une Collection Des Chaînons I and II reissued on WRWTFWW), and producer of Hiroshi Yoshimura’s Pier & Loft, Motohiko Hamase’s #Notes of Forestry, and Satsuki Shibano's iconic Rendez-Vous.

Filled with quirky minimalist acid-synth-and-drum-machine-handiwork, bouncy collages of beautifully childlike techno and pre-IDM, and the irresistible DIY charm of humble beginnings, the 8-track album is a fun, adventurous and risqué-but-catchy-in-the-most-peculiar-way piece of Japanese electronic music history neatly capturing the incredible creative energy boiling through the country’s scene in the 1980s.


Experience the roots of Japanese electronica!

A1. My Heart (90s Mix)
A2. Drift
B1. Back To
B2. Fortune
B3. Roadblocks

With Australia‘s dance music scene being more prolific than ever, it‘s only fitting that one of the continent‘s hottest tickets appears in the Running Back universe. Sam Alfred‘s debut on it’s subsidiary Misfit Melodies melts the old with the new, swings the hips with the hits and unites the past with the future. The man with the adorable underground white label mp3 Shine II Dawn under his belt, is not only a DJ to die for, but also a witty, interesting and most of all enchanting studio talent. Aptly titled Roadblocks, this 5-track-EP once more underlines his appeal: his-speed house and sprinkles of retro rave meet the melodies of tomorrow.
While My Heart and Back To sound like Strictly Rhythm tracks played by UK Garage DJs, Drift and Fortune are prime examples of Sam‘s production powers. last, but not least the title track is the result of a trip to Dekmantel and a nod to the proggy bounce of the 90s. Built with love and made to last.

Short Info:

"Vanatühi" by Kiwanoid is a technopagan concept album. Track titles refer to the word "nothing" in various languages.
The sonic landscape is crafted using deprecated tools: a first-generation 4-bit laptop, the DOS operating system, and a tracker program. Inspired by glitch aesthetics, the sound palette includes clicks, error noises, and low-bitrate techno sounds. Initially, the structures of the pieces may appear complex and chaotic. This electronic thicket might seem abstract, cold, and inaccessible, yet upon closer examination, it reveals a plethora of diverse species, coming across as somewhat nostalgic and warm, evoking surreal associations. From beneath towering sequoias peek pixelated ferns, LED eyes are blinking from below the undergrowth, and against the backdrop of a crackling campfire and cave paintings, a lively stomping of microchips unfolds.
Sudden contrasts, sharp cutting edges, a tachycardic bass drum engine, and irregular polyrhythms make themselves physically felt. Elsewhere, haunting lo-fi textures, hidden ambient drones, mysterious hums, and obscurely garbled samples offer introspective breathers. The dynamic range of the music is favourably extensive, and the raw imperfections of the sound are unmasked by reverb effects or other generic tools. Interwoven throughout are outsider rhythm loops, which could find a home at an alien rave party or a hobgoblin honky-tonk. Various human voice samples build a bridge to the listener, allowing them to embody a cyborg-like experience.

While each twist and turn remains unpredictable, these diverse approaches align in complementary patterns and stochastic regularities, making the whole surprisingly coherent, despite its chaos. The album doesn't bore the audience with intentionally irritating compositions or pseudocomplexity - it demands attention, but doesn't try to outrun its listeners.

MASK’s ZentaSkai & Laura Merino Allue announce vinyl-only underground house and techno series as
Cuddling Monsters.
Cuddling Monsters serve up the first vinyl-only volume of a new self-titled series on Berlin-based Mask Records. All
four cuts explore deep and classy techno, dub and house soundscapes with the aim of rediscovering the soul of
electronic music and forming new bonds between human creativity and technological innovations.
Cuddling Monsters is the coming together of creative partners ZentaSkai and Laura Merino Allue. ZentaSkai is the
MASK founder recognised for his immersive, hypnotic groove, and Allue is a fashion and graphic designer. They are
newly assembled under this alias but have a long-time love of vinyl and analogue machines, which shows in their sounds.
"Crafting music with analogue instruments holds profound importance in the contemporary musical landscape. Despite
the omnipresence of digital technology, analogue instruments maintain a pivotal role, offering distinctive sonic qualities,
creative constraints, and genuine sound reproduction. The tactile, hands-on connection." - Cuddling Monsters
The superbly deep and atmospheric 'Lucky Star' is a dubby minimal cut with a deft rhythm and warm pads that are
perfect for cosy back rooms. The absorbing 'Crystal Growing' is another stripped-back techno roller with rubbery drums
and pensive chords that lock you into a state of meditation. Up next is the powerful 'Floating Tank' which pairs gorgeous
ambient synths with driving drums. It's a great coming together of the physical and the emotional that will take dance
floors to the next level. 'Analog Dreams' shuts down with more perfectly smoky pads and grainy lo-fi atmospheres as
slick but driving drums power onwards.
Cuddling Monsters ‘Cuddling Monsters_CM Vol. 01’ releases via MASK 29th March 2024.
