Stepping Inwards - SLICE 004

Stepping Inwards was a collaboration in the summertime of 2014 between James Woodcock (Jimmi-Woods) and Luke Horsfall (Dr Squiggle) that has now ended with the two artists focusing on their solo acts. Even though now defunct , the projects sheer quality demands its release.

Stepping Inwards is a journey into the realm of psychedelic techno. From the humble confines of the bedroom studio Luke and James chanted an incantation of the hypnotic, anodised with a layer of brooding intensity. As your hips begin to shake, the music proceeds to cross the blood brain barrier. Each track becomes a neuro-tropical landscape, comprised of deep tech rhythms accompanied by powerful peaks and enchantingly elongated sounds. As the music progresses from track to track this album is bound to stimulate your cerebellum and make you crave the call of the dancefloor.
Download the album here, it's pay what you want!
https://slicerecords.bandcamp.com/album/stepping-inwards

Stepping Inward’s sound captures elements of Techno, Psy and Prog, with their musical inspiration being drawn from artists such as Monolake, Son Kite, Kliment, Claude Von Stroke, Tetrameth, and Sensient, just to name a few.

60 Road Studios - Siem Reap, Cambodia

Whilst in Siem Reap, Cambodia we had the opportunity to visit one of the best recording studios in South East Asia - "60 Road Studios" and got to sit in on tracking for an original Khmer rock band. An experience we won't forget anytime soon! The studio is top of the line, with a great post production suit, sound acoustics, chill out area, workshop, you name it. If you are thinking of recording or getting music mixed overseas this is the place to go. Cheers Steve Bloxham, Ian & Clive!

HIGHLY EVOLVED ORGANISMS -The official After Party of Chrysalis 2015

The Tribal Society in conjunction with Offworld Productions and Slice Records presents:

HIGHLY EVOLVED ORGANISMS
-The official After Party of Chrysalis 2015-

After successfully completing many of the mission objectives at the recent winter gathering, we would like to invite all you highly evolved organisms to celebrate once more together, to rekindle our associations and friendships and to make new and meaningful connections.

The playground this time around will be the infamous 'Rubix' warehouse venue located in the gritty, urban quarters of Brunswick. The musical entertainment promises to be one that shouldn't be missed.

We feel extremely privileged to welcome to the line-up two masterful producers/performers from the global scene who have confirmed to headline the massive local support program.

Matthew Swain aka EVIL OIL MAN (Zenon, U.K.) and Diego Simonetti aka KNOBS (Nachtstrom, ITA) are thrilled to showcase their latest productions and skills in order to take all of us up a notch in our collective journey of heightening awareness and evolving consciousness.

Check out their music here:

Doors will open Saturday evening from 1700 hours onwards and closing of the event will be at 0200 hours Sunday morning.

Until 2100 hours we will treat you to a $10 discounted admission plus special food and beverage deals courtesy of Rubix management which make the prospect of not preparing a meal at home a very affordable and convenient option. From 2100 onwards the admission will be a fair $20.

Our sincere advise would be to get there early, claim the deals and secure yourself entry before the venue reaches capacity.

The support line-up and further info will be released this weekend. Stay tuned... ;-)
