Bessel Wicked debut EP - unorthodox percussion and rhythm meld together fantastically. Reminds me of early Hard-Drum releases on HER Records but intensified and 'destructured'. idfk, it's great - COP Favorite track: Collapse.

Guillaume The leftfield elements all over those tracks are all deeply interesting. It's segmented yet cohesive. The high point for me is in Collapse, where literally all the frequencies collapse expect the higher distorted note, dissonant even. It carries away the rest of the song as all the ambient noises are blown down the spiral. The song Collapse also transition organically to its fantastic remix. An EP to spice up those DJ Sets. Favorite track: Collapse.

Markus (Hårek) YUKU opening their 2024 output with a bang with this left-field hard drum ep from Moxina. Oscilating between massive bass, shifty percussion and melodies diverging from western scales and tonality - this stuff goes hard. Ngl, going to rinse these tracks quite a bit. Favorite track: Hit the Wall.

about

"I'm a Taiwanese-Kiwi producer, sound artist and event curator based in Taichung Taiwan. Much of my music is formed around found sounds, ad hoc percussion, irregular time signatures and atonality manifested in the layering of samples and field recordings.

This debut EP release is a culmination of ideas I have had for over the last 5 years after moving towards producing electronic music as a solo artist. Prior to this I was writing contemporary classical compositions, studying gamelan, playing in a punk and improv bands, and listening to way too much metal. Attempting to amalgamate all these experiences and sound textures is a forever growing process and one of discipline to stick to developing this one project. I feel this release demonstrates what I have gathered thus far.

Sonically, a large part of me is drawn to non-western timbres, rhythm and tonality. It’s not really to consciously infuse my cultural identity into the music but rather an impression left by the cacophonic soundscape of Taiwan which all became very hazy after immigrating to New Zealand. And simply I just think they sound cool. Lots of the percussive sounds in this EP were made through beating on a bunch of pots and pans.

I am really grateful to work with long time friends and amazing artists Mong Tong and 晟 ⏆ SHENG for the remixes in this EP.

Thanks to Yuku for granting visibility to my debut release."
