EMPYREAN by Hermetic

Hermetic returns with his new release Empyrean. A fresh dive into future bass and the melodic side of dubstep. Expansive synths, weighty drops, and soaring atmospheres define this EP, delivering both intensity and emotion. Crafted in Rainbow Beach, Queensland, Empyrean captures Hermetic’s evolving sound: immersive, powerful, and unmistakably his own.

Boundaries by Hermetic

Queensland-based electronic artist Hermetic returns with a powerful new release, Boundaries — a genre-defying exploration of texture, space, and emotion. Blending intricate electronica with ambient/idm sensibilities and rhythmic tension, Boundaries invites listeners into a world where sound both defines and dissolves the lines between inner and outer experience.

Each track pulses with Hermetic’s signature depth: layered synths, atmospheric sweeps, glitch-laced percussion, and a cinematic approach to structure.

Crystals by Warm Natural

Dreamlike and sparkling, "Crystals" builds slowly, hinging on a rising orchestra of bells and plucks through to a swung breakbeat crescendo that slaps across a melodic wall of sound. Choral vocals and stuttering synths, groove along with the ever shifting beat. "Crystals" is quintessentially Warm Natural.

DECODING MESSAGE -

The tide rises and falls

What goes up must come down

We strive for the peak experiences

But we cannot stay on the summit

We all must descend

Burn the dead wood

Purify the flesh to purify the soul

Cast off all that no longer serves you

So you may rise again

Catharsis

Isolate by Warm Natural

Isolate is the new melodic breaks EP from Warm Natural.

Warm Natural is the dance music focused alias for Melbourne based producer Miles Cosmo Philip. Philip has been producing music for the better part of 15 years, infusing his tracks with house grooves, melodic breaks, and spacious ambient textures.

Always intrigued by the idea of music as a living breathing space, Warm Natural creates reverb drenched sounds that are as subtly detailed as they are massive, then layers them over glitchy distorted breakbeats and huge kick drums.

Like the memory of a warm hug, Warm Natural’s music taps into distant feelings of faded nostalgia and a vague desperate longing.

Isolate follows up Warm Natural's EP Plastic Vanilla.
https://slicerecords.bandcamp.com/album/plastic-vanilla

Plastic Vanilla by Warm Natural

Plastic Vanilla, the latest EP from Warm Natural, utilises a muted palette of hollow synths and crackly beats to explore different emotional states. As Warm Natural, Miles Cosmo’s music probes areas of the human psyche that are difficult to describe. The title track Plastic Vanilla swings with a distant frigidity before opening up to an exuberant crescendo of grainy monosynths. This duality is present in all of Cosmo’s work, feelings of deja vu, faded nostalgia, and the call of the void, juxtaposed with playfulness and verve. There's a cautious intrigue that flows through this EP with Return pulsing through its runtime with alien machine rhythms, and Stages cycling through its many phases seamlessly with eccentric flair. Plastic Vanilla’s three tracks develop organically and with warmth and enthusiasm whilst maintaining an air of distant fragility and numbness. This is Plastic Vanilla.
