Dark Fidelity Hi Fi "Gentle Static Flow" (bc045)

In anticipation of "Found", the brand new studio album from Dark Fidelity Hi Fi, we bring you a reissue release of the Manchester wizards 2018 album, 'Gentle Static Flow'.

A true journey into the glitchier side of ambient that's complimented with trip hop vibes and meticulous sampling methods. DFHF has an old school approach to track structures that hark back to the glory days of mid to late 90's IDM. Making for a warm, nostalgic and engaging outcome.

Originally released in July last year we've repackaged the digital version with some bonus tracks including the never before heard "Pushing Ratios".

We've also managed to get our hands on 20 copies of the now long sold out original CD for a very limited edition run on Bricolage. The CD contains the full original release and comes with an instant digital download that includes the bonus tracks.

The new DFHF album "Found" is released 5th of July on Bricolage.

Leit Motif "Bloom" (bc044)

We celebrate the summer solstice with a crisp new single from Leit Motif.

'Bloom' is a grandiose affair that perfectly encapsulates the daylight theme with its wandering ambient intro full of sporadic notes that lead into welcoming beams of light. Stimulating drum work and radiant synths take over as the track reaches its pinnacle in a haze of warm sounds.

At just over 14 minutes long it's a true epic that is intended to play out as a musical journey that bleeds sunrise into sunset....

Available on our bandcamp or below.

Complex Distractions Reviews "The Butterfly Effect".

There was a nice surprise review for our latest release from Fragile X via J.Hubner at Complex Distractions.

"Over six tracks and 35 minutes, The Butterfly Effect waxes and wanes in buzzing, electrical forms throughout. Fragile X has created a mini-epic which its scope runs from terra firma to deep space madness. Chaotic, blistering electronics tell a tale that work to move you and to make you ponder it all."

..."it’s electronic music you can practically touch."


Read the review in full on the Complex Distractions blog.

"The Butterfly Effect" is available now on Bandcamp. Grab it in either digital format or hand numbered limited edition cassette.

Bricolage Podcast #46 - Leit Motif

It's raining here in Glasgow as we upload our June session. Its another clammy but wet night. That's nothing new for this part of the world. It's probably going to rain for at least 50% of summer. It usually does here.

Thankfully we've got just the right remedy for all your summer needs in the form of a new podcast from Leit Motif. A mellow and warm breeze of a mix that's full of vibrant colours and layer upon layer of radiant melodies. Just the right amount of electronica, house and woozy vocals combined together to make for a dreamy and hazy listen that is sure make your feet tap and your head bop.

As always you can listen in below or at our mixcloud.

Fragile X "The Butterfly Effect" (bc043)

"Human was the music, natural was the static..." 

"The Butterfly Effect" is a brand new concept EP from Fragile X. 
Loosely based around the 'chaos theory' branch of mathematics, it sees the label boss return home to Bricolage with his characteristic sound design and anomalous approach to percussion lighting the way on a six track release full of splintered beats and complex layers. Where a network of dynamic melodic elements systematically shift around among a dense array of deep basslines and a backdrop of sci-fi tinged atmospherics. 


Available in digital format or limited edition cassette below or at bandcamp.

"The Butterfly Effect" Preview and Review

Ahead of tomorrows release, you can now dig in to an introspective and detailed review of  the Fragile X "The Butterfly Effect" EP via The Electro Review.

"The entire whole is built from one element, and in our human world each element is given a degree of choice. The social fractal then is dependent on not just one factor but infinite factors which all follow the same basic rules. Is this what the music is trying to tell us? What is the constant principle in the social equation, is there one to find? The trigonometric parallax between trends sounds like electronica."
