B3 Douce Angoisse - New Vape City

Release Note:
This is Lost Soul Enterprises big 15th release on wax, a tidy compilation of off-kilter dance floor cuts and misfit synthpunk anthems.

Side A commences with the gothic, neon-soaked Miami bass of ALONZO's "Cruising with Pap," featuring sinister verses delivered by a shadowy syrupsipping secret guest vocalist. Up next is bucking bronco NICK KLEIN's slow-mo industrial headbanger "Posture Test. The sonic equivalent of a sweat-soaked concrete floor, it lurches along at its own mechanical pace amid the metallic hiss and howl. Lastly, wild synth lines and ethereal dubbed-out samples dart in and out over a tough, punchy rhythmic foundation in NAEEM's "TLX," an android's sci-fi electro vision gone haywire.

On the B side, HEIDI SABERTOOTH's "Was It You" launches us deep into chugging acidic territory, combining enigmatic spoken vocals and a psychedelic, slowly evolving SH-101 line over a persuasive groove. Like a slap in the face after that comes raucous synth-punk powerhouse SSPS with "Paradise Lozt," raw as fuck, chanting a litany of dystopian tales atop pumping drums and a wash of demented organ-like synth stabs. Finally we close with the short but powerful "New Vape City" by the nomadic DOUCE ANGOISSE - an absolute earworm, a doleful coldwave ballad whose lush production plays perfect counterpoint to the icy, deadpan sentiments within.

Tracklisting:
A1 Funeral Parade of Roses - Singing, Shouting, Screaming
A2 Funeral Parade of Roses - A Thousand Hands Reach Out To Touch The Gun
B1 Funeral Parade of Roses - The Empire Of Roses
B2 Funeral Parade of Roses - The World Is About To End

Release Note:
This is the debut album by Funeral Parade Of Roses. It takes the form of a suite of four ominous, cinematic soundscapes suffused with foreboding and unease. In each track, dread-laden industrial atmospherics are punctuated by scorching bursts of rhythm, pantomiming an ongoing struggle between loss and liberation.

The presentation of this body of sound work is also conceived as a collaboration between the artist and designer / illustrator Priscilla Genet, whose artwork is featured both on the full color printed insert sleeve and the accompanying zine.

The zine itself is a booklet of stream of consciousness verse that explores a highly personal meditation on negation, the anarchic, and utopian eschatology.

A sort of Cabaret Voltaire for the iPhone age, DROOIDS are a collective of three multimedia artists who produce electronic music using improvisational, often anarchic methods. Utilizing a hodgepodge of gear both old and new, and not-wholly-quantized, they create a collage of sounds that verges on chaos before slipping back into a dark yet weirdly club-oriented beat. Their live shows usually feature multiple guest collaborators, costumes, sculptural props and performative antics. For their debut release on LSE we tried to capture the spirit of these shows and recorded over 11 hours of DROOIDS improvising in the studio of the course of one week. Those 11 sprawling hours then got edited down to these 4 snapshots, mastered and pressed in a limited edition of 200 (40 with original gelatin silver prints) for our 6th vinyl release.

Jamaican-born, Brooklyn-raised producer Heartbloc provides the standout A1 cut “Mirage”. Out of a dense forest of percussion emerges a shimmering, refracted melody, turning endlessly inward upon itself, mutating, snaking out of sight and just as suddenly reappearing. On the B side is R Gamble’s remix of young LongIsland Based artist Bosco Clowe’s “Suffication”. It’s a gritty, propulsive warehouse-ready techno interpretation of her original mix, which comes next-a rumbling, dubbed-out spacescape painted in tough textures and bouncy rhythms. Limited pressing

Emerging NYC label Lost Soul Enterprises present Hidden City, their third 12” release and first single-artist EP. These four tracks by Brooklyn native J Slusher, made in collaboration with his fellow artists in the borough’s thriving experimental techno scene, are dark, menacing excursions into after hours territory. His previous work as a noise artist under various monikers (Opponents, Privilege, Unstable Systems) informs a uniquely uncompromising take on club music. Slusher takes a stripped-down, industrial approach to percussion and populates it with otherworldly vocal snippets and growling synths. The result is hypnotic, evoking the severe moods and disused spaces so vital to the secret nightlife of the city.

Lost Soul Enterprises is an artist-run label based in New York City. We produce quality dance records, limited edition art objects, and other hybrid media. This untitled 12 inch vinyl is our inaugural release: four original house and techno compositions by founders Richard Gamble + Michael Rogers. A1 Reverentz starts with a tight, punchy kick drum, bouncy hihats and claps, and slowly build with warm harmonic washes and cutup soulful vocals. After dropping into a brief vocal interlude, a depp rolling bassline brings it all back together with maximum dancefloor effect. The A2 cut is a more hollowed, abstract interpretation of the same vocal theme. Eroded, reverb-soaked fragments of melodies weave in and out of raw, frenetic drum patterns. A jerky tambourine/snare pairing emerges midway to push things into overdrive. B1 Blind Boy combines a deep, brooding drone with jazzy organ stabs and a vicious, relentless kick and snare. Gospel vocals emerge suddenly from this tangled web, adding a further haunting element to a unique and weirdly danceable track. B2 Telekinesis Up is a highly infectious old school electro drum workout peppered with gritty, growling synth chords and percussive mallet accents. A dueling synth bass/lead combo alternates warm, saturated melodic phrases between the breaks.
