As we continue on our journey here at Futurepast, we are pleased to welcome a trio that, for many years, we felt shared our vision, Frak! From Sweden, Frak have been founding an original hardware-based sound since the 80's, first via their own label Borft before collaborating with other labels over three whole decades.On their "Formless Obstruction" EP, Frak have provided a window into the sinister twists and turns of their work. On the A-side, you see creeping Detroit stylings of "Scientific Bella" set against "Wrong Owl" with it's EBM underpinnings and industrial inflections.On the flip, "Concentrated Feed" bubbles next to the razor sharp "Capacity Faun", both are filled with characteristic machine quirks and experimentalism.

Incoming…POTG 03The 3rd release from tINI’s Part Of The Gang Records is here.This new three-tracker comes courtesy of Barcelona-based Uruguayan producer Jorge Gamarra.Jorge’s takes influences from Detroit and Chicago, as well as the UK and of course, Montevideo’s electro scene.Across three cuts we get a selection of future facing productions, composed with a vintage sonic aesthetic imbued with Gamarra’s heady mix of influences.The track ‘ADE’ is opening the EP with a delightful adventure into the cosmos.Groaning bass is combined with a menagerie of twinkling sounds, chirps and effects straight from another galaxy.Next up is ‘MK Ultra’, named after the infamous CIA mind control experiments (“Involves several drugs and electrodes plugged into the brain”).This one utilises layers of retro instrumentation to take hold of your subconscious and get that body moving uncontrollably...Finally, ‘DTR’ is 10 minutes of Gamarra demonstrating his production prowess, bringing together groovy bass, sci-fi effects and a catchy earworm, whistling melody…
