With artwork from Tybr, cutmesum.flac's first solo project makes a strong first impression. Handling their own production, songwriting and of course vocals has proven a rewarding task, as they have established a unique sound right off the bat, defined by synthetic texture layers, cryptic lyrics and occasionally harsh sounds and rhythms. The subject matter sways from personal and almost dissociative, dipping into surreal and abstract. This EP is one that will take several listens to fully dissect.

After several months since the first Honey Pot, Human Bee Hive decided to band together for a second prompt.
February's prompt is Awake.

This is a vague theme open to much interpretation, with many opportunities for abstract ideas.

Musically, a few people have reworked elements of Alan Watts' talk about Awakening. This fascinating talk has inspired a somewhat psychedelic pattern amongst the artists.

Canadian producer Neutral Cohesion has just put out a new EP entitled Judgement, two brand new gritty, bassy, trance-enducing tracks.

They are eerie, dark and even hypnotizing at times. Utilizing buzzing synths, distorted guitars and even choirs, they all come together for an experience worthy of the wait since the last Neutral Cohesion release.

The artwork was done by Aleksandra Anoshina and the Hive's very own Ben Gwynn!

Picture
The debut album from electronic duo onoami (Legless Lizard & Kamil Henri), entitled zoo, is finally available on all streaming platforms.


​
Accompanying the album is a few short sentences for every track, detailing the creation and process of the music.
Click here to check out the album on all music platforms
1. TURN IT UP
  • The Intro to the album was primarily recorded in Conor’s bathroom over a phone conversation. 
  • Within the recording is a friends dog whining and a sound byte of Kamil screaming at a jam session at the Old England.

​2. lasagun v8
  • It was constructed almost entirely out of an iPad recording session in Kamil's room. The iPad recorded Conor's guitar through a tiny practice amp as well as human hums and clicks that formed the glitchy 7/8 groove of the song.
  • This is truly the 8th version of the track.

3. brian
  • Kamil: It consists of pitched/stretched vocal hums, kitchen cutlery and a neighbour’s dog barking. This is the birth of titular brian.
  • Conor: The 808 sound was something Kamil was messing around with that I thought had no chance of becoming anything useable but somehow he managed to turn a recording of him hitting a pan from the other side of the room into the weightiest donk on the album.

4. martha (brian's dad)
  • Kamil: Martha is Conor’s little sister dropping some freestyle bars about her love of coffee and various other topics. Contrary to popular belief, Martha is not actually brian’s dad.
  • Conor: Song sample came from Martha and I on holiday in Minorca speaking into a fan to get weird alien noises. She's saying "ok" because my other sister is angrily asking her to stop. This song also has no known BPM because it wasn't made to the grid, Burial style.

5. me@the.zoo 
  • Conor: Kind of a garage vibe to this one almost. Basically every song on this album leans into a certain subgenre of electronic music, and this beat was flirting with a couple but never amounting to anything. Then I added the really dry snare and everything fell into place.
  • Kamil: Like much of the album, it's an ode to YouTube and the internet as a whole. Elephants have really really really really really really really really long...

6. scrt rvrb
  • The missing letters in this song title are _e__e_ _e_e__
  • Kamil: Originally constructed by Kamil from sampling one of Conor’s guitar riffs, it was later developed into an onoami track. 
  • Conor: A good example of the online collaboration that makes up a good third of this album. The song got better and better every time it was sent across the pond.

7. harry (brian's son)
  • Kamil: Harry Furniss’ cornet playing, at COME ALT JAM in Bristol, is a major component to this instrumental. The opening is a real voicemail Kamil has no recollection of having left on Conor’s phone. 
  • Conor: Drums are currently also in two other old works in progress that I may finish sometime in the future so look out for those maybe.

8. onoami
  • This self-titled beat was the first one made by Conor and Kamil collaboratively. It ended up creating a formula that would be quite integral to our sound; noisy dark sounds, strange samples and occasional guitar.
  • The original title shall not be revealed to the public. Although, if you recognise the subtle bed of conversation underneath the beat you might be able to guess.

9. WHO ARE YOU
  • Conor: A good example of us squeezing as much out of a sample as possible. There's also a Crazy Frog sample doing a very important sound you might not realise.
  • Kamil: In the outro to this musical project, we ask a philosophical question, WHO ARE YOU? Deeper meaning is open to interpretation.
