New for 2022, the third release on Abstracta Audio is an invitation to be guided by gnuTron to explore and experience the infinitely colorful and complex worlds of "Chromogen"! "Chromogen" is 5 tracks of gnuTron's infectious electro-infused techy acidic funk designed to kaleidoscope listeners into undiscovered tones of bio-logic variation and sonic stimulation.The colorful patterned sounds of "Chromogen" are now generating to move you on 12" vinyl EP from gnuTron on Abstracta Audio (AA-003).

Repress of the first Junction Forest record! But only a few copies, in order to use the leftover green sleeves..So I got some complaints about my last album, reportedly containing no danceable tracks, "I tried to play it out and everybody left" said one angry customer. "I thought it sounded fine but it clears the floor 100%" wrote another one. Well this time I took a different approach. On the A side, you get Tteuggeopge (meaning "Hot" in Korean) - it's a mixture of acid techno and psy-trance breakdowns, with some vocal samples taken from an old Korean movie, a jazz intro and a long 9.09minutes build up (figures are never chosen randomly) which I hope won't let the dancefloor unmoved - if you dare to play it!On the flip you get the ambient version... no! I was joking! you get 2 other trance tracks: Psychic Link is a mixture of Hard & Goa Trance sounds with breakbeats samples & a surprising deep tribal interlude in the middle to cool down the room for a minute.And finally Snow White And The Seven Mushrooms is an angry bad tripping tribute to 90s progressive house sounds. Like if Robin S took too much acid and is haunted by some supernatural creatures.

After a couple of solo EPs to start the label, FAC-3 is comprised of four different artists, each with their own unique sound. Although a mix of up-and-coming and established producers, old and new music, there’s a common thread running through the EP.First up, Justin Zerbst’s Waverider is an atmospheric nod to Detroit. Unearthed from a 90’s DAT, it’s built around some heavily modulated chords and 808 percussion which carry the track through to its string-laden climax.Italian mainstay Luca Piermattei’s Venice is distinct end-of-night fare. Haunting pads sit atop a deftly-programmed bass which provides most of the movement over a tight drum groove.While the A side has a undoubted warmth to it, the B dials things back and ups the intensity with two techier cuts. UK producer Skelter’s first release is a spacious acid groove, with the bassline taking centre stage amidst a nervy backdrop of percussive textures and reverb hits.Finally, Melbourne's LOIF rounds things off with the simmering Digiburra; a dense, electro-tinged breakbeat aimed squarely at the dancefloor.
