Matt Karmil is a British musician currently residing in Sweden. “++++” is his third album, following 2014's PNN debut ”- - - -” and IDLE033, released on Bristol label Idle Hands earlier this year. His output also includes a variety of singles for labels such as New York's Beats In Space Recordings and Stockholm's Studio Barnhus. On this new album, Karmil can be heard exploring the concepts of impossible objects, reflection, symmetry, infinity - perspective, truncated and stellated polyhedra - hyperbolic geometry, tessellations and lost love. While making the music that constitutes “++++” he interacted with mathematicians George Pólya, Roger Penrose and Harold Coxeter as well as the crystallographer Friedrich Haag, and also conducted his own research into tessellation. The result is “++++”, Karmil's most clever, strange, emotional and fun work yet, a testament to his breadth and depth as a musician. Did we forget to mention that he's an awesome party dj? More

As Idle Hands reaches its 30th release, it gives us great pleasure to welcome rising talent Matt Karmill to the fold. To date Matt has delivered a strong body of work to labels such as Beats In Space and Yume, as well as dropping the cryptically titled - - - - album on Popnoname's PNN label last year. This three track EP marks his first appearance on the Idle Hands roster after earning his stripes on the shelves of the shop, and he will be following this record up with an album for us later in the year. The hooky leftfield house constructions on Play It continue the thread of adventurous releases Idle is championing in 2015, following Strategy's Seeds Of Paradise LP and Leif's broken beat excursions. With a balance struck between experimentation and satisfaction, Matt has delivered a record that continues the all important tradition of timeless music that the label always strives for. More

matt karmil ---- to whom we appeal ? how do we learn through experience ? what differentiates us from other animals ? who is confronted by freedom ? who is comforted by opportunity ? who was the pioneer ? who transcends verbal communication ? a point of view of an avant-garde reality - a transitory party. The world is not round - it is a disc. After years of working in various, shall we say, departments of music, Matt Karmil was almost forced into releasing his own first 12" - a chance meeting with Ada after an invitation to play with Cologne Tape led to the release of irr 15 - the reverse peephole ep. With support from Barnt, Dj Koze, Axel Boman and Michael Mayer amoungst many others, things really couldn't have got off to a more surprising start - 'I've never sent a demo to anyone, and really thought that people wouldn't be so interested in the music I just made to entertain myself, but I'm starting to realise that the more I make music based on that premise, the more other people seem to enjoy it'. The somewhat nomadic Matt Karmil has been producing and dj'ing under many aliases and in many forms for years, but has now found a flow and sound that until recently eluded him. Releases on Tim Sweeney's Beats In Space, an e.p, the mysterious HAF001 and now the debut album appearing on cologne's own PNN, are sure to make 2014 a busy one for Matt Karmil. More

Suffering years of servitude under the hand of the man, Matt Karmil tilled a nonplussed attitude towards sharing his creative pursuits into a garden of dance music delight. From this soulful soil are plucked the gorgeous jams of So You Say (Dirty Tape Heads Mix) / Wheel, his debut Beats In Space Records 12". "So You Say (Dirty Tape Heads Mix)" elevates a sweeping disco loop into acid house heaven with a euphoric 303 bassline and hypnotic string sample refractions. The cloudscapes form into more precise patterns on "Wheel", a filter house jam tweaked to maximum peak-induced joy. Together, both sides of Matt Karmil's 12" triumph over terrestrial concerns and relish in the heady pleasures of pure house music. Each 12" from Beats in Space Records features original artwork in considerate and serial form. Susumu Mukai animates and extrapolates hieroglyphics of yesterday's dancefloor into the geometrically inclined cover art. The 12" packaging constructed by Will Work For Good features a removable vinyl BIS logo cling. Matt Karmil's So You Say / Wheel 12" will be released as a limited edition 12" . More

if sascha funke is part of the club culture since the nineties: his musical memory and sensibility goes way back before the early techno and house eruptions. for his new works, that all had been produced in berlin during the year 2016, he removed the dogma of functionality and shifted into a riskier, more open terrain, that does not offer club sensations mainly. “i think i would not have made such a diverse album without the time with saschienne. before saschienne i mainly worked sample-based and produced exclusively at the computer. by working with julienne as saschienne i discovered my love for the instrument. "playing" with the different synths is for me the greatest progress and ultimately also the best pos-sible form of expression for my music.” he confesses. for his new tracks he used several kind of gear – from a korg arp odyssey to a dave smith prophet 8, moog voyager, solina string keyboard or a yamaha pacifica guitar. stylistically his new orchestra lead him to a mesmerizing meltdown of trance, techno, synth-wave, post-punk and ambient parti-cles. “the use of all the synths allows you to work more emotional” funke explains and points his finger to the emotional landscape of “lotos land” that delivers enchanted atmospheres, sensible stomping grounds, funky twisted spheres and tragically hip psychedelic zones. at large there is an unmistakable strong uk influence. be it new wave, pop or early dance and techno stuff. sometimes the bass rolls like in a the cure song, then dreamy synth sceneries arise to stick in the mind.
